Long Suffering Customer Even with

Dobson was chuckling as he and his
wlfo emerged from the restaurant.
"George!" snid his wife, "what's
gottlng Into you7 For tho Inst ton
minutes you havo had something on
your mind nnd now, suddenly, you be
gin gigsllng."
"Mary, I don't want to go through
Hfo with a Becret In my bosom," said
Dobson nftcr chuckling some more.
"Remember tho counterfeit 50 cent
pleco that I got last winter?"
"Yes. It's tho only money you over
succeeded In Bavlng."
"It's gone. I gave It to tho cashier
In tho rostnurant."
"By accident?"
"No. 1 did it In cold blood. I havo
been thinking nbout doing it for a
long tlmo.
"How did your conscience permit
you to do such a thing?"
"Thnt's tho worst of it. Every crmo
I think nbout it It seems to make my
conscience feel better. Wo havo been
patronizing that restaurant on occa
sions for n year. Tho proprietor has
given us venl In tho chicken Balad,
codfish In tho deviled crabs, chlckory
in tho coffeo and water In tho cream."
"There has been reason for suspi
cion?" "Wo havo had ovldonco that would
convince any Jury. After I had given
him a 50-cent piece with somo lead
In it I tried to be ashamed of myself,
but I couldn't. It mny havo been con
trary to tho statutes of tho United
States, but it wns poetic Justice."
HE WAS KIND, SHE CLEVER.
And Combination Resulted In Her Get
ting a Seat.
She was a very clever woman, and
a past master In tho art of strategy.
So all agreed who rode down town
with hor on the Sixth avenue surface
car.
Sho entered tho car nt Seventy
second street. Every seat was taken,
and almost every strap had a man or
woman suspended from it.
Sho looked nbout hesltntlngly for an
Instnnt, but every man was interested
In his paper. Then sho took hold of
a strap almost In front of a young
man, n very young man, who was
blushing guiltily ns ho protended to
rend.
"While tho young mnn blushed nnd
the woman thus hung, her handker
chief fluttered, nccldontally to all ap
nearances, to tho floor. Tho young
man looked up Just then and saw tho
whlto bit of cambric. Tho feeling of
ihlvalry which ho was evidently try
ing to stlflo would not be suppressed
longer.
Ho nroso nnd stooped for tho hand
kerchief. This was tho woman's opportunity.
Whllo his back was turned she gently
slipped into his scat.
Whon he turned nbout nnd saw
what had occurred ho almost col
lapsed. But tho woman did not. Sho
took her hnndkorchief out of his hand,
smiling innocently.
"Thank you," sho said, sweetly.
"You aro very kind." New York Sun.
"Out of the Darkness Into the Light."
"Out of tho darkness Into tho llRht;"
Never was word of promise moro bright.
Never mine sound to listening ear,
Or wnltlnj; heart, moro thrilling' nnd
clear.
Nerving tho soul for Its onward night,
Than "Out of tho darkness Into tho
light."
Only the folding of hands and feet.
And closing of eyes In slumber sweet;
Only the mopping of painful breath.
Only the touch of tho hand of Deuth;
Only tho Master's call of might.
And "Out of tho darkness Into the
light."
Out of the shadows of sorrow and care.
Out of tho blackness of doubt and de
spair; Out of the harrowing, constant, strife,
Out of the wearying tolls of life;
Out of the teach of foes within.
Out of the withering touch of sin.
Into tho certain hope of the Just,
Into tho fulness of Joy nnd trust;
Into tli calmness of spirit-pence.
Into the rest where labors shall cease;
Into tho regions by guilt untrod.
Into tho smile and presence of God,
Watchers, pale watchers, wiio wearily
stand,
Longing for sight of the better land,
Look up. o'er tho darkness nnd gloom, to
tho star
Of promise that gleams In the distance
afar;
For surely It comcththe dawning
bright
And "Out of the darkness into the light."

A Missing Mascot.
"No moro luck," sho wailed; "I
shall never havo another bit of luck,
I know I shan't. I'vo lost it and I
hadn't had it but three months.
"What is it thnt you havo lost that
you are making such a fuss about?"
inquired n friend. "Your pocketoook?"
"Pocketbook," answered tho forlorn
one, "No, I wish It was only my pock
etbook, that wouldn't be serious. But
I'vo gone and lost my beautiful yel
low garter and yes, it may bo a plain
old thing, but it was such a mascot.
Janet Woro it when sho was married,
then gavo it to me and I havo worn it
over since. And such a good time as
I havo had! Dances, whist clubs, and
no erul of larks, and I'vo met simply
slues of mon. You know they say
that whoever wears such ft mascot
will bo married within tho year. Guess
I'm dished now for fair."
Then He Was Good.
A congressman of Missouri relates
that he was making a campaign
speoch last fall, when he was an
noyed by tho frequont Interruptions
of a countrymnn, who seemed bent on
making trouble.
"xty friend," said tho speaker, de
termining to suppress tho disturber,
"haven't you heard the story of how
a braying ass put to flight tho entire
Syrian army?"
"Don't you bo afraid of this audi
once," shouted back tho disturber of
tho meeting; "there ain't no danger
of it stampeding. You've done tested
it!"
