Chief End of Brains.

A well-known politician tells this
one on himself. A barber while trim
ming his locks, remarked: "You have
large head, sir (snip, snip). It's a
fine thing to have large head, for
a large head means a large brain,
and large brain is the most useful
thing a man can have, for it nour-
ishes the roots of the hair."-Boston

 The Smith park site remains the favorite by odds. the votes never havo stood less than nearly four to one for that site compared with the Eighth avenue site.
 One very enthusiastic Smith park voter says: "The city commission will make the mistake of it's life if 1t does not accept the gift of the Smith heirs."
 A centrally located merchant, on the other hand. says: Tt should be within walking distance of the heart of the oity," and favors Eighth ave- nue site.
 A unique feature of the bailoting is now and then a vote for Wood row Wilson park by some one vot- ing against tho Eighth avenue site alongside the park.
