    The Newspaper Man.
He seldom is handsome or natty,
And none of the charms of the dude,
la oft more abstracted than chatty,
And sometimes unbearably rude.
He courts us, then slights us and grieves
us.
As much as he possibly can;
He kisses us, loves us, and leaves us—
This perfidious newspaper man.
Our mothers won't have him come calling.
He’s no earthly good as a “catch;**
His morals (they say) are appalling;
His finances usually match.
He’s rollicking, reckless, uncaring;
Lives but for the hour, the day;
He’s dangerous, dubious, daring—
Not fit for a husband, they say.
But, somehow, we girls are forgiving.
Perhaps he but needs ua the more.
Because he goes wrong in the living.
And knows the old world to Its core.
So we pass up the dude and the schemer
Who lead in society’s van.
And cherish the thinker and dreamer
Enshrined in the newspaper man.

When we are particularly anxious
to annoy Weston at the club we have
only to start a discussion on spirit
ualism. Sometimes If one of the
junior members has to be punished
for cheek we tell him tall spiritualis
tic yarns and advise him to go to
Weston for their verification. This
has much the same effect as sending
a boy to a saddler to buy strap oil.
Not so many years back Weston
was an enthusiastic spiritualist him
self, attending seances and even
writing letters to the local press on
the subject. Hut he was cured some
what rudely and in a manner likely
to make a lasting impression on any
man.
You see it was this way: About
five years ago, when Weston was at
the bight of his spiritualistic zeal, a
widow with a very pretty daughter,
reputed to be worth a small fortuuo
of $1,500 a year, took a house on the
outskirts of the town. Weston fell
head over ears In lovo with Daisy,
though, greatly to his chagrin, she
scorned to prefer the attentions of a
young chap in the office of a firm
of solicitors who held the office of
clerk to the magistrates. Weston
was continually at Miss Daisy about
spiritualism and tried to get her
mother to bring her to some of his
precious seances. But she refused to
have anything to do with them, and
1 believe it was this silly fad of his
which put her off Weston. Any sane,
sensible man, seeing how the ground
lay, would have dropped spiritualism
and gone In for a little reality—Daisy
was worth dropping something for, I
can tell you—hut where spirits were
concerned Weston was just mad, and
Jt only made him more determined to
prove to her that his theories about
second sight and so on were correct.
I remember that winter well. It
froze for three weeks on end. Wes
ton used to take Daisy out Bkattng on
some flooded meadows ncai the sta
tion, and things seemed to be coming
to a head. He wore his heart quite
openly on his sleeve and was ready
to lick her shoes for love, but the
other chap, who Just at this time
came out of his articles and got a
partnership In the firm, was making
the running pretty hot. There had
been a lot of men thrown out of work
by the cold weather and some ugly
stories were afloat about burglarB,
footpads and the liKe. Mrs. Hardy’s
little house, away out by Itself, seem
ed a sure mark for gentlemen of this
sort, and Weston was never tired of
warning her to keep the windows
bolted, and even Induced her to have
a special new lock put on the front
door.
After the frost we had snow, a
fortnight of it, and the whole town
got pretty well snowed up. Weston
did not seem himself about this time.
I remember we remarked upon It at
the club. Perhaps his second sight
told him some crisis was at hand.
Any way. It came. It was one Wed
nesday night. There was a concert
In the town hall which some of us
went to, but the place was so full of
draughts that we were glad to get
by the Are In the club smoking-room
He clashed out just'as he was.
at half-time. Maybe we had sat there
for ten minutes when we heard some
one come running down the road like
a madman. We all jumped up and
went to the window just in time to
see Weston, without an overcoat, and
with no hat on, tearing along like a
motor car and making far more noise.
We guessed something was up, and
three of us put on our coats and fol
lowed. It was easy to see his foot
prints in the newly-fallen snow; there
were still a few stray flakes in the
air. They made straight for the
. Hardys, and we turned the last cor
ner Just in time to see Weston extrl
eating himself from a large snow
heap, so we waited in th* shadow of
the wall. But, perhaps, I had bet
ter tell the rest of the story as Wes
ton recounted It to us afterward.
It appears that he was sitting at
home (urging the weather, the cold,
and the concert, whither Mrs. Hardy
and Daisy had been conducted by the
rival, when as be dozed in his chair
he had a vision. Quite distinctly, he
assured us, he saw a lonely little
house surrounded with snow and
with a glimmer of light shining
through the front window, while a
roan, jimmy In hand, and carrying
over his back a bag of tools, was try
ing to force the front door. In a
flash he recognized Mrs. Hardy's
house—he seemed to hear the metal
lic grating of the Jimmy as It wrench
ed at the lock and splintered the
woodwork—and seeing the hand of
Providence offering him a way
straight to Daisy’s heart, he dashed
out just as he was and never stopped
till ho tripped into the snow heap.
As soon as he had extricated him
self and recovered his breath a little
he stealthily approached the house,
bending low, as he softly pushed open
the garden gate. There was the dim
light glimmering out through the
blinds of the front room and, yes,
there, crouching by the door, jimmy
In hand, was the figure of a man.
Spurred on by love, Weston was no
coward, and, uncoated, unarmed as
He was on hit back in the snow,
he was, he flung himself upon the
burglar, grappling with him fiercely
as he loudly called for help. Weston Is
a small man,and before you could say
“Jack Robinson" he was on his back
in the snow with a pair of hands
have strangled the life out of him had
not the door been suddenly opened
from within to disclose the trembling
figure of Daisy clinging fearfully to
the rival, while from the top of the
stairs Mrs. Hardy in bedroom attire
made night hideous with her yells.
I will draw a veil over the rest.
Weston’s antagonist was the local
locksmith, called In hurriedly to re
pair the patent lock, which had stuck
fast and prevented the door being
properly shut. A bad headache had
kept Mrs. Hardy from the concert,
where she would not allow her daugh
ter to go unchaperoned, and she had
gone to bed early, leaving the young
people to their own devices. What
with the fright and the cold, Mrs.
Hardy was ill In bed for a fortnight,
and only got out In time to be present
when Weston was convicted of as
sault and battery before the local
magistrate, for whom the rival was
acting as clerk that day.
Daisy waB married in the spring,
but I think what hit Weston hardest
was that when we helped him home
on that eventful night it was to find
his back door in splinters and every
room in the place ransacked.
Weston never mentions spiritual
ism now.—Gordon Meggy in Chicago

OLD DARKEY WAS PUZZLED.
But He Knew It Must Have Been a
Political Speech.
Congressman Moon of Tennessee,
has a fine farm in North Georgia,
which he utilizes as a summer home.
The Republicans of the sectton
once invl'.ed a Tennessee speaker to
address them. That kind of a speech
was an innovation in the neighbor
hood, and the color*section in par
ticular was mystified by the spell
binder's remarks.
The next day a negro who was
working for Judge Moon said to him:
“Judge, does you know Mistuh Blank,
whut lives up ter Chattanooga?"
“Oh, yes,” answered the Judge, “1
know him mighty well. Why? What
about him?”
“Nufiln, suh, ’ceptin’ he made a big
speech oveh at Flintstone las’ night.”
“Is that so? What was he speak
ing about?”
"I doan'. hardly know, suh, des
whut he was a-speakin’ erbout.”
"Well, was it a lecture, a political
speech, or what?”
“I doan’ know des ’xactly, suh;
but I reckon it mus’ a be’n a perliti
cal speech, kase he 'bused de white
folks a right smaht.”
Not So Preusing.
“Mehitabel,” said Archibald, "now
that we are engaged we should have
no secrets from each other, should we,
dear?”
“No,” replied Mehitabel, after she
had assured herself that her moher
was not listening in the next room.
“Well, then,” he said, “do please
tell me just how old you are.”
“With pleasure,” said Mehitabel.
“But first, Archibald, please tell me
just how much you get a week."
Archibald pondered. His mind ran
ahead into the future.
“Forgive me, Mehitabel,” he re
sponded, “it was none of my business
to ask.”
