that it was tried un

gette friends have
disappointed m e
the famous poet declared in a recent
Interview I expected their slogan to
be some startling thing and lo it is
oid od and familiar
They remind me my suffragette
friends of a witness at a Boston in
quest
Witness said the coroner do you
know what motive the deceased had
for committing suicide
Yes judge your honor said the
witness pompously Deceased told me
his motive sir
The coroner the court officers ev
erybody looked interested
What was then deceaseds mo
tive said the coroner
Why your honor he said he want
ed to kill himself was the reply
James M Beck who has been re
tained as general counsel for the
sugar trust once made use of a hu
morous anecdote to introduce an ad
dress Unavoidable duties had pre
vented him he said from making any
but the most kur
r i e d preparations
for the occasion
and so he would
commend to the
audience the motto
of a good old wo
man he had heard
of Iler pastor
came to comfort
this woman who
had suffered a sad
bereavement
Well my good
ffiy n
woman the pas- JAitrs uixk
tor remarked in your bitter trial I
hope you have found some ray of com
fort from the Sciiptures
Indeed I have dominie was the
confident though tearful reply
Thats grand sister exclaimed the
pastor sympathetically But tell me
what passage of the word helped you
most
Grin and bear it
Mr Beck is a lawyer of much experi
ence but he does not look it A slight
figure and a beardless face make him

Lord Curzon was once talking about
widowers He said that a widower
was more despised and abhorred than
any other human type In a widow
he pointed out we all find something
seductive But a widower is as un
inviting to us as a toad
What young maid in her dreams of
life said Baron Curzon ever imag
ines herself being wooed and won by
a widower There was once a wid
ower who proposed to a young wo
man and being rejected tried to bring
her to look favorably on his suit by
praising his children
He said he had four children and
each was beautiful and clever and
good
But the young woman sneered and
retorted that children were like tooth
brusheswe take no interest in any
but our own

How the New Minister to Belgium En
tered the Dipfomaiic Service
If Charles Page Bryan our new min
ister to Belgium were not the courte
ous and all around good fellow he N
Uncle Sam would have lost a most
able diplomat for it was through an
act of courtesy that he first entered
the service This was in 1S07 Some
little time before that a banquet was
being held at the Calumet club in Chi
cago to make plans for a horse show
It was a rainy night and a wet be
draggled reporter who had been as
signed to the affair arrived at the hall
just as dinner was served lie was
given a seat and found himself alone
at the table the only reporter present
The table was a large one and the
reporter was thoroughly uncomforta
ble and lonesome Presently a tall
fine looking man left his seat at a

CHARLES PAGE BKYAV
ble at the ether end of the room
walked to the reporters table intro
duced himself sat down aud gave the
young man new to Chicago some illu
minating information
Now a little later that reporter was
made an editorial writer on H H
Kohlsaats newspaper and still later
William McKinley H H Kohlsaats
close friend and also a friend of the
editorial writer was elected president
And among the first appointments
made by President McKinley was that
of Charles Page Bryan to be minister
to Argentina He knows how he got
his start in the diplomatic service and
is always willing to give credit where
it is due

A STARTLING STATEMENT
New York Mejual Authorities Claim
Dyspepsia to be a Pre Disposing-

being unable to digest food the body
doesnot receive the required nourish

comes a fertile field in which the germs
of disease mny lodge aud flourish
Therefore the person who permits
dyspejsfa to progress unhindered is
guilty of contributing toward the mosc

when their gambing devices are kept
in full view on counters and in show
windows
Chief of Police Steward has given
orders to suppress all the raffles lotteries
and other games of chance which have
become substitutes for the old slot ma
chines and the old policy game as ab
sorbers of school childrens pennies
He is entirely right in puttirg officers
by the score at this work
There is notbiDg trivial about these
lotteries and raffles
They are serious evils first because
they teach children to like gambling
and second because the heay profits
the promoters make out of them furnish
a stimulus to constant efforts to extend
their business And business extension
here means childhood perversion
