WHY HE WAS ANGRY
HAPPENING THAT SPOILED MR.
JONES' ENJOYMENT.
Wlfey'a Little Mistake Hi Poker Qnm
Enriched Vlaltor , But Host Said
Nothing , at Least Not
Just Then.
The Jonesce , Mr. nntl Mrs. , wont
OT T to spend the Droning with the
Golttn Uio other erenlng , because people -
plo net Urod of staying at homo all the
Urn * and just listening to each other's
By and by Mr. Qoltt suggested that
th y all drnw up nround Mrs. Goltt's
llttU wwlng tabU and liaro n nlco
frlondly game of poker for on hour
or BO.
Ererybody wanted to show that hoer
or nho waa a sur enough sport , all ,
rlghtskl and then ono always 1ms an
Idea at the beginning of a poker game
Uiat Just as like aa not ho can nmko
the uvunlng profitable aa well as merely -
ly pleasant.
Mrn. Goltt and Mrs. Jones were
about even In their working knowl
edge of the grent national game , and
the men folks therefore backed them
up ] cheerfully , assuming Uiat they
would break about oven.
After a half hour or so of play Uio
visitant took the lead , as the sport
ing editor might say. It was only a
penny l ante , flve-cent limit game , but
then people have been known to clean
up a flrst-rnto little bunch of pin
money in even such a juvenile game
as that , and Jones already had bin
chlpH stacked up into four cute llttlo
cylinders In front of him. Mrs. Jones
would reach over and borrow ton
wcl
chips or so now and again , and a
momentary : frown would lilt over her
husband's brow , but ho didn't say any
thing.
lly and by Jones took notlco of the
fact Uiat Mrs. Jones was reaching
over Into his sub-treasury vaults and
picking up chips half a stack at a tlmo
and putting thorn into the pot as fast
as she could meet Mr. Goltt's hots and
raise htm back again.
Mr. JonoB looked at her when ho
saw his hoard of chips disappearing , in
a way that Inquired plainly : "Aro you
sure you've got It on him ? "
"Got a straight ! " whispered Mrs.
Jones when she found opportunity to
whisper without being observed , and
Jones gave her a look that said , "Go
aa far aa you Hko , " for straights had
been pretty good that evening , and
Uio pot , after the way It had been
sweetened , looked worth while.
Finally Mr. Goltt called her. "All
I've got Is Uireo Indies , " ho said In a
tone of pollto Inquiry , laying down bis
hand.
"Woll , I bnvo a straight , " gurgled
Mrs. Jones. "See < iuecn , king , ace ,
deuce , tray ! "
Mr. Jones gnvo her a look that told
her something was amiss before any
body bad time to say a word.
"Why , the nco comes after the king ,
doesn't It ? " Hho Inquired. "And
doesn't the two-spot como after the
ace , and the throe-spot after the two-
spot ? I'd Just like to know why that
Isn't n straight ! "
Mr. Jones watched Mr. Goltt rake In
the pot and didn't say anything not
Just thoii.
Inexorable Chinese Justice.
Ilsti Hsl-lln , a Chinese school-master ,
munleicd a government ofllclal some
months ago and was beheaded In con
sequence. The Noith China Dally
News prints this Item showing how
ClilnoHO Justice Is still pursuing the
wrongdoer's family : "Tho governor
of Anhul , Feng Hsu , has been trying
to got hold of the wlfo of Hmi Hsl-lln ,
the assassin of the late ICn Mln , who
Is studying In Japan , and 1ms written
to the ChlnoBO minister at Tokyo ask

back to China. Aa the woman Is
charged with a political offense the
Chinese minister I as replied that ho

Edison' * Advice to Boys.
"I should like every boy Interested
In electricity to hoar what Thomas A.
Edison once aald to mo wlien 1 was a
boy working In his laboratories , "
writes Joseph II. Adams In the Intro
duction to his "Harper's Electricity
Hook for Hoys. " "I often recall It
when things do not go Just right at
first. 1 asked the great Inventor ono
day It Invention was not made up
largely of Inspiration. Ho looked at
mo quizzically for n moment , and then
replied : 'My boy , I have llttlo use for
a man who works on inspiration. In-
> cntlon Is two parts Inspiration and
98 per cent , porsplratlon. ' "
Origin of "D'Oyley" Linen.
Tow know the oilgln of the word
d'Oyloy. In the reign of William I. .
Robert d'Oyloy , a Norman knight , was
granted an estate at Hook-Norton ,
which ho hold on the condition that on
every feast of St. Michael ho tendered
to the king a linen tablecloth valued
at three shillings. The ladles of the
d'Oyloy household embroidered these
line cloths , whlcji were exclusively
used at the royal table , and as they
were very beautifully worked on the
finest of linen they were called
"d'Oyley linen , " and so nowadays the
name d'Oyloy Is applied as then for
line linen cloths.
A Legislative Paradox.

British parliament is a practical para
dox. "
"Why ? "
"Hecnuso it is a house of commons ,
and yet peerless among legislatures. "
