LOVE Then man May cry The world Is thine and mine -- The Mystery Solved The residents of Hinckley were much excited During the night a wheel shaped disc had rolled down the Main street hill cutting great swaths in the cement sidewalks Then it pirouetted through a plate glass win dow knocked over a safe and landed upside down on the floor of the may ors office Bings the geologist rapped on the peculiar disc with his knife handle and declared it a sub strata from some dis tant star Banks the fish merchant had an idea that the wonderful object was of crustaceous origin a substance that had ossified and hardened into flinty formation Hanks the undertaker thought it might be a rosette from the metal casket of Ptolemy the First worked loose by the disintegration of time Punderton the liveryman was firm in the belief that the disc was nothing more nor less than a petrified rubber pad from the shoe of Pegasus He of fered to bet a dollar that he was right but as no one seemed able to decide the bet the offer was not covered Hanks was just about to express his opinion that it was a curling stone from the course of the Anthropophagi when young Mr Adams came dashing into the bank Grabbing the disc he cried angrily What do you fellows mean by mussing up my wifes first pie that way Hugging the precious bit of culinary art to his bosom he sped rapidly to the brow of the hill where he released the pie and let it roll happily home to its maker 0 Comfort 60OD NIGHT She was married Just a week and made a pie She set it out to cool When lo against the rule Her poodle ate the pie and had to die She was crying when she telephoned was wife When he sat down to sup He thanked the Lord a pup Had sampled Loveys pie and had to die -- Eloquence I have felt unuttered sermons more eloquent than the lengthy discourse of a Talmage I have seen triumphs won by silence and retorts made without words that completely put to rout the enemies forces -- A Flower The other day a child brought me a flower I took it from the pure min ion of a woman and smelled its fra grance The perfume carried me miles and miles away to a scene of flowers shade and tangle brush It was a haunt of youth I knew right where those flowers grew I could go there in season and pluck its kind if the hand of civilization and the march of progress had not sullied its bed nWYift JtiS3uujj - -7 ATE HIS FILL The Sharp Traveler Had His Moneys Worth and Caught the Coach There was a coach that used to run between Nola Chucky aud Paint Rock a matter of some forty miles For lunoh the coach stepped at a halfway house in Tin Can aud here a good fifty cent meal was put out cake and pie coffee and tea and all the cold meats you could mention But the landlord of the halfway house had a mean little secret dicker with the driver whereby us soon as the travelers had paid for their lunch and got fairly settled to it a call would come for an Immediate start So oh theyd all go grumbling Theyd have paid for 50 cents worth of food and only eaten you see about y cents worth But along cume one day a traveler with a sharp bright eye The landlord found this chap some ten minutes aft er the coach had started on again still tucking in pie and ham at a terrible ruie Why man he said youve let the coach go without you I know it said the traveler calnily I was too blessed hungry to stop eat ing Suddenly the landlords face paled Good gracious he said all my silvers gone It was too Not a knife fork or spoon was left except the sharp eyed mans He said as he kept on eating that he had noticed a suspicious looking char acter among the passengers a man with a red beard a hump and a limp oh very suspicious The landlord sent a hostler off to overtake the coach and bring it back Iu about forty minutes the coach re turned Then the sharp eyed man came forth wiping his mouth But he made no effort to identify the sus picious looking passenger Instead he got aboard the coach took his seat and said coolly Thanks landlord for the good food Youll find the spoons and things in the coffeepot Noav driver off we go agin Washington Star PAYING BY CHECK References Required to Open a Bank Account In England I like the American custom of car rying money loose in the pocket said D H Lieban a retired banker of Lon don In England gentlemen nnd busi ness men carry very little money with them Nearly everything is paid for by check except of course money enough to pay the small incidental ex penses of a day If a man goes into a store to buy a hat he does not pay money for it but gives a check If he is dining at a public place he very likely pays for his meal with a check The system of credit in England is different from that in this country and the mere fact that a man has an account in a bank serves to give him standing One cannot open an account with a bank in England merely by carrying money to the bank and depositing it Ho must have two first class refer ences before a bank will accept his ac count and when reference is given it means that the person giving it would indorse or stand for the person to whom it is given A reference in England means more than a mere phrase Checks on banks in England cannot be obtained for the mere asking and a man must have an account in order to get checks from any bank They cannot be picked up on bank counters or in public places Private accounts in English banks are not accepted unless they are paid for the general charge being G0 a year There are one or two banks in England which discriminate so care fully in the accounts they accept that when a person is fortunate enough to be permitted to open an account with them he can get credit in any city in England or the continent of Europe Washington Post Disease Has Freaks No medical man needs to be told that even disease has its freaks and that re covery has occasionally been brought about by means inexplicably trivial One of the most remarkable of these unaccountable eccentricities of disease took place at Halver in Westphalia The case was that of a boy who as the result of a very heavy fall backward on his head while skating had for a year and a half been deaf and dumb One morning his brother went to awake him and finding him sleeping heavily tapped him lightly on the fore head To his amazement the deaf and dumb boy awoke with a loud cry Both speech and hearing had been re stored Kansas City Journal Between Fifty and Sixty The sixth decade of life has been most prolific in human achievement and may well be designated as the age of the master work In action alone its accomplishments have revolutionized history and It would be most difficult to conceive what would be the present status of the worlds affairs had these ten years of individual life never ex isted W A
