HE GOT THROUGH THE GATE
Resourceful Chicagoan Tampered
With the Truth but Made His
Point Just the Same
When all is said and done Chicago
people can beat the world in resource
fulness said an envious New Yorker
An exile from that city wished to see
his wife off on an eastern train that
positively refuses admittance to the
platform without a ticket lie accom
panied his wife to the gate
Just wait around on the platform
a few seconds he said and Ill come
through and help you arrange your
luggage
You cant go through said a guile
less New York friend If you have
anything to say youd better say it
now
Thats all right said the Chicago
man Til be there
Two minutes later he dashed up
brandishing a babys milk bottle in the
face of the astonished gatekeeper
For heavens sake let me through
he said I put this in my pocket at
the last minute and my wife has gone
off and forgotten it The baby will
starve to death if she doesnt get it
The guileless New Yorker who
lacked sufficient wit to see his own
wife and three small children off
gasped in sheer envy while the child
less Chicago man using a milk bottle
as a harmless weapon fought his way
through to the platform
FOUND STEAM PIPE USEFUL
One Man Discovered That Its Orig
inal Purpose Was by No Means
AH It Was Good For
There are some of the conve
niences of the modern household
said a man who has nearly all the
comforts of home that may be put
touses for which they never were in
tended in several months of the year
at any rate There is in my dining
room a nicely gilded steam pipe that
runs from floor to ceiling and it is
hot to the touch Heat has many
uses and the heat that exudes from
that steam pipe has served me in un
expected ways I once tried to open
an ink bottle the cork of which made
of glass was so tightly wedged in
that no amount of force I could apply
served to dislodge it I held the bot
tle to that steam pipe for a few min
utes and the problem of physics
working nney that cork came out in
a jiffy But better than that one
afternoon while reading a newspaper
I experienced a sudden attack of lum
bago and as all the folk were out
and I had no other means at hand I
removed my coat and waistcoat and
sidled up to that steam pipe and
glued my back to the hot cylinder
and the pain disappearing in a short
while I found the thing had all the
beneficent virtues of a hot water bag
Cure for Discontent
Women are very wrongly
about leve They are allowed to red
love stories at a tender age and to
form a totally false notion oF love
They see themselves as charmers at
a very early age Tiiey begin trying
to captivate to charm to cnsave the
opposite sex before they are out of
the nursery They live and die
many many of them vithcut ever in
the least understanding the truth
about love or in fact about anything
else
Women are very envious by nature
There seems to be rlsnty of justifica
tion in this one way you look at it
Why should one woman have luxury
ease travel society and fine clothes
and another woman have only toil and
loneliness and privation This is a
useless question We cannot explain
the inequalities of life but there is
an answer to the woman who asks
this question It is this The more
barren the field the greater the priv
ilege of creation You hve a chance
to see what you can find by way of
joy and beauty you have pn oppor
tunity to create your own atmosphere
and it can be a very lovely one if you
learn the secret of making It so
Bittsburg Dispatch
Easy Way to Wash Windows
I have washed every window in my
house myself and all in one fore
noon said a young woman who is
noted for knowing the easiest and
quickest ways to do housework to a
writer for the New York Sun And
whats more I did not use a drop of
water No slopping around with wet
rags for me How do you manage
it asked the friend Just this way
was the reply I buy a pint of dena
tured alcohol which will wash two
dozen windows Then I simply put a
little on a cloth and rub the window
briskly a moment The dirt comes off
in a twinkling and the windows are
left clean and bright It takes just
one half the time and is only one-quarter
the work of the old soap and water
way
Too Tall to Be a Soldier
Nothing could illustrate better the
changes in the art of war wrought by
the evolution of weapons than the
melancholy news that Artilleryman
Arceau of the Fourth Regiment at
Rochelle has been discharged on ac
count of his height
In the old days Arceaus prodigious
stature would have scared the enemy
and poets would have chanted the glo
ries of the age which could produce
such redoubtable champions Now
however smokeless powder has chang
ed all that Invisibility is the first
consideration on the field of battle
nowadays and an artilleryman of six
feet nine might cause tho discovery
and massacre of a whole regiment

HOME OF JOHN PAUL JONES
House at Fredericksburg Vaf Recently
Marked by a Tablet Erected
by the D A R
Fredericksburg Va The onl home
that John Paul Jones had in America
which still stands in Fredericksburg
has recently been marked by a tablet
erected by the Betty Washington Lew
is chapter D A R
Jones was appointed a lieutenart in
the continental navy while still a res
ident of Virginia The famous Amc
can naval hero left here in 1773 when
he received his appointment
Judge John T Goolrick and Mrs
Goolrick have probably done more
John Paul Jones Home
than anybody else to keep the history
of John Paul Jones
Mrs John T Goolrick was recently
presented with a- gold maltese cress
in recognition of her patriotic services
in securing the bronze tablet on the
Jones house Judge Goolrick has devot
ed himself for years to getting out a
historical narrative of John Paul Jcncs
and has proved beyond all doubt that
John Paul Jones was a citizen of Vir
ginia and a resident of Fredericksburg
during the entire period of his abode
in this country
Judge Goolrick is the authority for
the statement that William Paul the
only brother of the great commander
kept a store and a tailor shop in the
Fredericksburg house that John Paul
first came here in 1760 remaining
abcut four years when he returned to
Scotland He also states that John
Paul came here agrn in 1773 and that
he was living in this house when he
was appointed a lieutenant in the con
tinental navy and that he added Jones
to his name for tho first time when he
entered the navj
YOUTHS rViET TERRIBLE FATES
Rochester Beys Who Threw Nitro
glycerine Cartridges Into
a Bonfire
Rochester N Y The lives of three
beys were blotted out in Rochester as
the result of the foolhardy act of
throwing nitroglycerine blasting cart
ridges into a bonfire which the lads
had built The explosion that fol
lowed killed one of the boys instantly
and the others died in the hospital a
few hours afterward The force of
the explosion was so great thatwin
dow glass within a radius of 500 feet
was shattered and the detonation was
heard two miles away
The three boys were John McGuire
fourteen years old Archie Clark thir
teen and William Perry eight All
of the boys were related two sister3
of the McGuire lad being the mothers
of his two companions The boys were
in the habit of gathering junk and in
their expeditions came upon the cart
ridges It is estimated that 400 of tha
cartridges were thrown into the bon
2re by the boys This accounts for
the terrific force of the explosion The
bodies of the Clark and McGuire boys
were hurled 50 feet away landing on
the ground The body of the Perry
lad vas dismembered The torso was
carried over a high tree and landed
in the branches of an apple tree while
the head was found on the roof of a
back kitchen 100 feet in an opposite
direction Other parts of the body
were scattered In different directions
The eyes of the Clark and McGuire
boys were blown out and their bodies
were multilated frightfully They died
without regaining consciousness
