PRESIDENT JACKSON'S RETORT. The 1 rish-American humorist did| not appear in literature before tho, time of the civil war, though when the occasion called for a remark that would outlast more pompous ex pressions he generally said some thing that enriched tho language. It was the son of an Irishman, Presi dent Andrew Jackson, who, when his secretary of state, Van Boren, ! proffered him unasked advice ns lo , how the president should receive a visiting foreign nobleman, replied, paternally: “Van, I onc e knew a man in Ten nessee who made lim everlasting for-! tune by minding his own business.” . The humor iierc is not. very subtle, but the speech was intended rather( to be effective than amusing.—The Sunday Magazine. NO PLACE FOR PICTURES. An incident in which humor and pathos were combined occurred in tlie Italian settlement of Philadel-, phia the other day after a mission worker had handed a little Italian child a picture card. “Here, little girl,” said fhe wom an, “you can take this home and hang it on the wall of your home.” | “We has no walls in our room,” | said the child. “No walls,” said the worker, look ing amazed. “That’s right. There are live fam ilies in the room where we live, one in each corner, and we live in the middle of the room, so you see we ain’t got no walls to hang anything on.”—Philadelphia Press. — QUITE PROBABLE.

City Editor—What do you mean by Baying in this robbery story lhat “Brown was knocked down and re lieved of a hundred dollars?” Were you ever robbed yourself? New Reporter—No, sir. City Editor—That accounts for it. I f you’d been robbed you wouldn’t describe the loss of a hundred dollars as a relief. HIS RECORD. Tommy Wrott—You told Dora Hope that you had refused ms at least half a dozen times. What a whopper 1 Lotta Guph—It wasn't a whopper, either. Don’t you remember that you propoaed to me six tunes last Thursday evening 7 t THE EDUCATION OF THE BOY With These Precepts Instilled It Is Very Certain He Will Not Go Far Wrong. Teach your hoy to be true to his word and work; to face all difficult'ies with courage and chcerfulnc i; to form no friendships that can bring him into degrading associations; to respect other people’s convictions; to rovcrenco womanhood; to live a clean life in thought and wort us well ns in deed; that true manliness always commands success; that the best tilings in life are not those that can bo bought with money; th.it to command he must first learn to obey; (lint there can be no compro mise between honesty and dishon esty; that the virtues of punctuality and politeness are excellent things to cultivate.- Kxchange. BEDSTEADS WORTH FORTUNES. A well-known French actress is tlu1 happy possessor of a lied valued at. $5,000. It is, of course, very ancient, hut in an excellent slate of preservation, and its adornments carry out to the full all the lavish beauty of the bed itself. Draped at the back from a ring in the ceiling are beautiful curtains of antique bro cade, plumes of ostrich feathers 1 wip ing them up at. the corners. The bedspread is of richest satin, veiled with valuable lace in exquisite de sign. The fashionable and rich of Pai •is arc now on a level with tin* trans-Atlantic art lovers in their search for the antique uml beautiful, whatever its price, and if it possesses authentic historic interest nil the bet ter for the salesman, ns the bidding for its possession is very keen. Sev eral old Knglish country houses own antique beds which are the envy of the connoisseur. LANDIS MERELY NERVOUS When Judge Landis of Standard Oil fame was starting his legal ca reer he wns a nervous young man. He had not been practicing ling when lie unexpectedly found himself called on to conduct an important case.

Probably there is no street sight that pels more folks to noticing than an auto loaded with hales of hay. Up around (he stable section in the East Twenties this is not uncom mon, and very often (lie automobile laden with hay is seen in Columbus Circle. The contrast is marked and almost always lends some one to sav some thing about the passing of (lie horse hs exemplified by the fact that even his provender doesn’t come to him any more horse-drawn.—New York Sun. HIS COSTLY HEADGEAR. “I was surprised to hear that old man Coopons told Jimmp Faulkner that he wouldn’t let him marrv his daughter under any circumstances. What was the trouble?” “I understand the old man noticed that Jimmy was wearing a green hat.” “Will Jimmy give up the hat?” “Not Jimmy, lie's too proud of it. He says it cost him $200,000— that’s the amount, you know, that old Coopons will give his daughter when she marries.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer. MEAN TO KEEP UP QUALITY.
