PRETTY PAIR OF TWINS
Y DON MARK LEMON.
Ed. Burns and Tim Smith mar
ried as pretty a pair of twin sisters
;as you'd see In a picture gallery, and
'then settled down in tho same town
long aide of one another.
' For a year everything went aa
smooth and easy, and then a change
came over the spirits of Ed. Burns
and Tim Smith. Ed. got to looking at
'Tim's wife, and Tim got to looking
at Ed's wife, nnd they concluded they
had married tho wrong sister.
It was amuaing when you como to
reason It out, for the glrjs were as
much alike ns the snme letter out
of tho sumo Identical t printer's box.
Hut Ed. remarked to lija.wife, what
a flno houtjekeper her Bister was',
and Tlmo remarks to his wife, what
a flno cook her sister 'wasv Ed. says
to Jenny that's his wife: ' "Why
don't you dresH yourself up pretty,
llko your sister does? She's, got
style, she has." And, 'Tim. says tp.
Mary that's his wife: ,'"W.hyM don't'
you look stylish, llko your sister docs?
She's got a backbone llko a w,r.s lis
uro In a Fifth avenue sjoro."
It run on this way 'most a., year,
and Ed. and Tim got more and more,
careles of their wives'.. fcelhTga, and'
the two women folks got more and'
more miserable and unhappy.
Well, It went on this way till .the
rift In the fiddle was big enough to
swallow a meeting house, and then
one day something curlouB hap-'
pened. Ed. and Tim klsaed their
wlvea and made up, and "acted pret
tier than they did In their courting
daya, and everybody in town, waa
glad to aee' it but me.
You aee, Tim had taunted Mary
about how much nicer her alster was.
till Mary flies up and, say a: "Why'
aon t you traae me for Jenny, ana
be done?" ' ' . ;
Tim could hardly ' belleve(' bis eaa
for a inotne'nt, then fhe' gratia Mary
and ehbut's: '"You mean it'?".' .. .

"Nobody, wlll 'know Jveve' dona
It," eald Ed. "You' couldn't' Jell 'em
apart till you've lived with one, of
'em a year." . ""'...'
"Nobody but us will know it," says'
Tim, looking at Jenny llko a boy with
a dime in his pocket looks in a candy
store window. '
Then Jenny and Mary w,ent up
stairs together and changed clothes,
and came down, a'tia Tim grabs Ed's
wife and Ed. grabs Tim's wife, and
everything looked as rosy 2nd com
foi'table as tho big gold 'Wl"' on" a
divorce certificate. ' N"
Ed goes home with Mary and Tim
stays with Jenny, and the two men
folks were &b frollcksome and af
fectionate aa two bull-pups with
'their first muzzles taken off.
Ed. acted aa It nothing was too
good for Mary, and Tim thinks there
wasn't anything halt good enough
for Jenny, and the two women folks
got to laughing and growing fat
from pure Joy, and aa nobody but
,them and me knew anything" about
the deception, and me laylag low
and aaylag notfclng, why, things we'at

BOOKS HELD AS BEYOND PRICE
IVelumee In Which Vlaltora te Royalty
: Have Inscribed Thalr Namaa Are
Moat Carefully Preeervod.
Two bow vliltora' booka have re
cently been provided at Buckingham
palace, and the old onee have cone to
Join the many ottaere that are In the
;aafe keeping ot the Lord Chamber
laln'a department.
f The value ot theee booka to auto-'(raph-huntera
la almoat impoaalble to
jeetlmate, and aome aenaatlon waa
cauaed about the court a few yeara
ago when It waa announced that one
waa mlaatng. fortunately a careful
aearch revealed Ita whereabouta.
The booka are bound In crlmaon
ileather, with aa Imperial crown
jatamped on the back, anof are aecured
with a atlver claap. Aa a rule, each
book laata for about two yeara. but
jupon the occasion of the death of
King Edward over a hundred pagea
were taken up with algnaturea of
callers.
One of the booka la kept at the am
bassadors' entrance to the palace for
tho use ot the diplomatic corpa and
,offlclal vlaltora, and the other la at the
equerries' entrance and la uaed by the
general circle.
Everyone entering or leaving the
palace la called upon to sign one or
other of these books. TltDlta.
Tin nacm t wanted to awap wlvea aay
better than Mary aad Jeaay bad
wanted to awap husbands. But 1
couldn't blame the women folks much,
for they were now being treated like
human angela. ,
Well, It went on for moat "a year
thla way, with Ed. and Tim treating
the alater they had awapped for like
knights In old story books treated
their beautiful lady lovea, then, one
day, I discovered something that'll
make me turn over and. laugh In my
grave.
I've aaid before that Jenny and
Mary being twlna and born of the
same mother looked Juat alike, and
I'll be eternally ahanghaled If they
hadn't fooled their own husbands.
They had gone upatalra and changed
dreaaes, and then came dowa aad
pretended Mary waa Jenny an Jeaay
waa Mary, and Ed. had gone o
home with h)e own wife, thinking
her Mary, and Tim had atayed where
he waa, with hta own wife, thinking
her Jenny, and by treating their
wires like they wet seme other fel
low's wife, I'll be hanged if they
didn't love 'era like they were.
When I discovered the truth 1
went home and fed my bull-pup on
liver till he begged me to quit it,
and then I sat down and wondered
about how long It would be before
Ed. and Tim would And out the
truth, and the truth would make 'em
aBhamed.
