of a musical Instrument being appropriate.
Their attention Is called to the ankles
about the room, which are numbered, and
opposite to the corresponding numbers on
their cards they must write their nanis.
Each object numbered must have some
musical significance, and one need not be
musical to guena them, aa certain terms are
so common that everyone knows them.

Little Whltefoot.
Llttls Whitefoot, one of the tiniest of the
wood folk, has made her home In the' 'alder
thicket close to the brook. This mouse
took . u deserted bird's nest and roofed It
over with dry grass, lining the Inside with
milkweed down. What a snug home waa
this for herself and her five babies.
As soon as the children were old enough
she took (hem on short trips through the
meadow. They learned to mnke little cup
boards beneath the stonea and the fallen
trees, which they filled Willi corn, wild
cherry pita, seeds and grains. Oh, what
Jolly parties there were when the beech
nuts ripened?
When the snow lay thick on the ground
the whltefeet tunneled out roadways be
neath It and went to visit their frlenda. The
deeper the snow the happier and freer they
felt, for they knew that no shadow could
liover above them, followed swiftly by a
hawk's cruel claws. They knew there was
no danger of i fox's springing from behind
a fallen tree or a bowlder as they paseed
on the other side. They welcomed every
snowstorm, and as the snow piled up
thicker and thicker the merrier they grew,
aaying to oue another, "What a Jolly win
ter we are having!"
The Bag-s-Bos.
IJsten, child, and I'll tell you true
Some facts In the life of a Hug-a-boo.
He's not the creature to give you pain,
He dwells In a corner of nurse's brain.
An attlcky. ratticky, cobwebby place.
Where cowardly ogres are aent in disgrace.
He has no more spirit than sweet skim
milk.
He's tame as a hobby horse, tender as silk.
He shivers and shakes when the doggies
bark;
And, would you believe It! he's scared of
the dark.
He hasn't an atom of common sense.
Would fall In outrunning a algzag fence.
He never was known to chase a child;
Bo don't be frightened and shriek so wild
When nursey tells of his big. black wings,
They're only ahadowy, helpless things!
Just say to her firmly, "This will not do,
I know the truth ot the Bug-a-boo!"
Baylaar Postage Stamps.
A dainty little miss entered a pos to flics
the other evening and tripping up to the
stamp window murmured, "I would like to
buy some postage stamps."
"Ones or twos?" Inquired the! clerk.
"Twos." And I want quite a lot. I really
don't want to ask for too many, so won't
you please tell me how many you can
sparer"
"Oh. I guess I can give you all you
want." he reassured her.
"Well, I wouldn't want to take too many
for anything, don't you know, for some one
might come In right after me and want to
mall a letter very much, and you couldn't
sell them a stamp."
The clerk realized that such an embarras
sing situation might exist, and began to
eount over the layers In the stamp drawer.
He found he had 000 or 700 twos on hand
and this gave him courage to ask thla un
selfish little customer the smallest possible
number that would satisfy her demands.
"Well. I wanted ten, but If you can t
spare as many aa (lint now I will take six
and conic around for the other four some
other day."
Neighbors.
Jackv and Janie live side by side;
They're neighbors close In a coxy way.
And oh. what pleasure thev have Indoors
Or out In the street at play!
Ah. deary me! If they d always agree,
What fun they could have in their play!
For Jacky and Janle keep "house" and
"school."
And sometimes they set up a store and
trade; ,
But once In a while things don t go right.
And they quarrel then. I'm afraid.
Yes. deary me! These two disagree.
And quarrel at times, I'm afraid.

But they don't seem happy I wonder why
And isn't It a pleasant day!
Ah, deary me! Why can t they agree,
And make it a pleasant day?
But after luncheon they sidle out,
And Janie, perhapa, has a piece of cake,
And she stands close up ta the garden fence.
So Jacky a bite can take.
For deary me! They would soon agree
If Jacky a bite would take!
She holds It 'out with a sidelong glance.
And Jackv moves up and takea a bite.
And then the trouble is past and gone;
They will play together till night.
Yes. deary me! They now can agree.
And they'll play together till nlghtl

I to tell with great gusto on ex-
I nerlence he had during t'U cam
paign for governor of Virginia
aralnst the Hon. John 8. Wlae.
"Mr. Wise made the statement," aald
the general, "that If I had been named
Smith Instead of Leo I never would have
been heard of. I endeavored to combat
that theory, and In every speech I made
during the campaign would touch upon
Mr. Wise's statement and would then
briefly refer to some famous historical
figures, in order to show that the name
8mltb was not to be despised.
"One day I spoke before a large crowd
on the courthouse green In a rural com
munity, sand even before I began my
speech I noticed a drunken man standing
right up In the front row of listeners. I
took' Vp the 8mith matter and Informed
those agriculturists what a distinguished
family the Smiths had been. As I warmed
up to the subject I noticed that something
seemed to be worrying that drunken man,
and more than once he sesmed to be on
the verge of Interrupting me. I reminded
my audience that a distinguished governor
of the state had borne the name of Smith,
and that many other men famoua In war
and In peace had borne the despised cog
nomen. Meanwhile, the drunken man
watched ma with 111 concealed anxiety.
Finally, he could stand It no longer. Lift

Inebriated gravity, he blurted out, 'tiiiay,

Several friends called on a New York
clergyman one evening and were kept walt
rng for him for some time.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
;he minister remarked as he entered hla
library, "but I have Just had to perform a
wooden wedding In the church."
"What!" aald one of the visitors. "I
never heard of such a thing. What kind
of a ceremony was it?"
"Oh," answered the clergyman, with a
twinkle in his eye, "It was the marriage
of a vouple of Poles." New York Sun.

Hobioa'i Choice.
A story recently told by Thomas Hunter,
president of the New York Normal college,
seems to Indicate that once In a while a
willing wife Is spoiled to make an unwilling
teacher.
A pretty and agreeable young woman
who lived In a country village suddenly
announced that she was going to take up
teaching.
"You! You a school teacher!" ex
claimed the recipient of her confidence.
"Why, I'd rather marry a widower with
nine children!" '
"Bo would I," the young woman replied,
frankly, " but where is the widower?"

The Absent-Minded Professor.
Prof. Barrett Wendell of Harvard was
describing at a banquet the absent-minded
men he had met.
"We had once at Cambridge," lie said,
"a very absent-minded Latin Instructor.
This gentleman would walk the streets
with an open book before his face and
everyone had to get out of his way aa
though he had been blind. It Is said of
him that one spring day, as he waa walking
In the outskirts of Cambridge with his
usual open book, he stumbled against a
cow and before he had time to collect his
thoughts mechanically took oil his hat
and murmured, 'Madam, I beg your par
don. Then he perceived his mistake and
continued on his way, reading as before.
Half a mile further on he collided with
a young woman, whereupon, in an angry
tone of voioe, he said: 'Is that you again,
ou brute?' "Boston Herald.
A Striking Resemblance.
Seeing Hall Calne on the street this morn
ing I was reminded of a story that Sir
(ilibert Parker told me about the distin
guished Manx novelist- The incident deems
a great deal better after a good htok at
the stranger's face.
Parker was hurrying along the boule
vard In Paris one day when he observod
a crowd gathered in front of a well known
art dealer's shop. His curiosity was
aroused and he elbowed his way Inside the
circle to .And that a new picture ot the
Saviour was exhibited in the window. The
face was thin and careworn, the eyes were
dark and sunken and the thin beard was
of a tawny shade. The head was poised
as If defiant.
As Sir Gilbert contemplated the portrait
there was a commotion at one side ot the
throng. Suddenly the crowd parted and
Mr. Calne entered with folded arms and
on the Hamlet step. Everybody made way
for hlm-and the Manxman stood for sev
eral minutes contemplating the powerful
but sorrowful face In the window.
The resemblance between the portrait
and the silent man's face was startling.
Turning to leave Hall Calne's eyes en
countered Parker's. As he stepped to his
side Calne whispered:
"I say, did you see how these people
reverently made way for me?"
"Indeed, I did," replied Parker.
"They thought it waa I!" saying which

Easily Reconciled.
One of the witnesses called In a Chicago
divorce case lasrt year was a highly re
spected clergyman in the Windy City. Ac
cording to one of the counsel in the case,
the following conversation took place be
tween the Judge and the minister. Said his
honor:
"Doctor Blank, If you were on the bench
in my stead, and were acquainted with
all the circumstances of this case, would
you grant this divorce?"
"Assuredly I would, your honor," replied
the clergyman, without the least hesita
tion. "But." said the Judge, "how do you
reconcile this assertion with the injunction
of scripture. 'Whom God hath Joined let
no man put asunder.'?"
"Your honor," responded the minister,
with convincing gravity, "I am quite satis
fied that the Almighty never Joined this
couple." Harper's Weekly.
Flaws In the Code.
Attorney General Moody was discussing
certain flaws in the criminal code and
certain remedies that had been suggested.
"These remedies," he said, "are not
logleal; they would not be effective If
enforced.
"They are singularly like the remedy that
a chop house waiter once Indicated to an
Impatient guest.
"The guest hud ordered a chop, and when
It was brought to him he said, with a
disgusted air:
" 'Waiter, my plate is quite cold.'
. The waiter smiled encouragingly.
" 'Yes, sir;' he said, 'but the chop Is hot,
sir, which, I think, you'll And will soon

State Geologist Kummel, of New Jersey,
was talking about forestry, which can. he
claims, be made very profitable in the state
of white sand and scrub.
"What Is needed." he said, "is intelli
gence, a business head, the same sort ot
ability which, though often misapplied,
still makes John Maldment's store the
most popular and successful one In a fifty
mile radius.
"John Maldment sells everything. Let me
give you an example of his talent
"A woman, warm and furious, got out
of a wagon the other day and entered Mald
ment's big, cool store.
" 'Look here,' she said, 'that rocking
chair you sold me yesterday was no good.'
" 'How so, madam?' Maldment asked.
" 'Why,' said the woman, 'the rockers
are not even. As you rock, the good for
nothing chair keeps sliding sideways all
over the room.'
"Maldment threw up his hands.
" 'By Jingo!' he said, 'I made a mistake
and sent you one of our patent rockers,
warranted not to wear out the carpet all
in one place. That style costs 12 more

Curious and Romantic Capers of Cupid
Timid Man Finally Weds.
HIS marriage ot George Batteries
ot St. Charles and Miss Myrtle
Crawford, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. R. II. Crawford of Ulgm,
III., brings to a close a le-
Vnarkable courtship.
' Two months ago, as the minister appeared
at the appointed time to tie the knot. Sat
lerlee'g heart failed him and he left the
house, to the amaiement ot the assembled
guests and the preacher. About a month
ago llinaaa prevented tha wedding.
Last Tuesday the young man started for
the court house at Geneva to get a license,
but forgot to get it. Again the guests and
minister had assembled for the oeremony,
waiting patiently the entire afternoon for
Satterloe's return, but he came not.
Thursday at 1 o'clock Rev. John Lee of the
Methodist Episcopal church accompanied
hlra and the license was secured, the wed
ding taking place at 4 o'clock in the pres
ence of a rather expectant company at the
bride's home.
Batterlee Is known aa the most timid
person In St. Charles.
' A
Forgot the C'naablnatloa.
W. T. Murphy of Chicago and Mrs. Kate
Nutllson of Louisville got Into trouble when
they tried, to wed at East 8t. Louis. This
tlma Cupid's setback was caused by the
fact that the marriage license clerk had
forgotuo the combination to the safe In
which the licenses were locked, but this did
not prove serious, for the clerk's brother
remembered It after a long delay and they
were married.
CharUa Hattel and Bessie Underwood
were foiled In two attempts to wed. The
flret time they started from Lexington,
Ky , to Cincinnati to get married the day
after they had gone to a circus together,
but her father, W. H. I'nderwood. with
W. H, Hill, caught them and took tbem
back home. The girl, was sent back to
school and the boy sent home. A few
days later Hatsel. who Is 20 years old,
returned to Lexington and found Miss Un
derwood, who Is It, and together they
started to Cynthlana. The father and Mr.
Hill started In pursuit and caught tnein at
Cynthlana, arresting them at the points of
revolvers, and taking the girl back home,
after ebarglag Hatsel with abduction.
Cupid got another aerluus setback at
Louisville, a setback with complications,
when two runaway couples got tangled.
On couple fell Into the hands of the police
and later waa refused a license to wed.
The troubled ones were James R. Carum
and Miss Logie Johnson of Bonnlevllle.
The trouble arose over the efforts ot the
officials to prevent the marriage of Andy
Hollis of Pleasure Ridge to Miss Florence
Terry, the 16-year-old daughter of his em
ployer. The couple that the officers were
after got married, ao it was a draw between
Cupid and his opponents. Hollis had ar
ranged his elopement with minute care
and taken no chances. His fiancee slipped
away from home, met him, and drove in a
buggy to Louisville, getting married on the
way, and while the Louisville officers were
hunting for them they were enjoying their
honeymoon In a park. The luck of that
couple proved bad luck for Miss Johnson,
the bonnle lasa from Bonnlevllle, and Mr.
Carum, for when they sought a license
they were mistaken for the other couple
and arrested, then released, and when the
girl refused to swear she was over 1 years
they were refused a license. ,

Two Girls Wed Chtnaseea.
Two pretty Chicago girls, one residing
in Englewood and the other on the West
Bide, have selected Chinamen for their
husbands. Mis Anna Mitchell. State and
Sixty-third streets, is at Galesburg, pre
paring to wed Lee Tou of Lee You Bros.
Co., laundrymen, at 1X4 West Lake street
Miss Edna J-'lynn, daughter of William
Flynn. 1244 Wilcox avenue, returned to
Chicago's Chinatown as the bride of Joy
Ten Lo, chief cook for King Yen Lo, pro
prietor of the chop suey restaurant over
the saloon of Alderman Kenna at Clark
and Van Buren streets. Mrs. Joy and her
husband are now living at the Auditorium
annex.
Unable to stand what they consider the
disgrace of having' a Celestial for son-in-law,
relates the Inter Ocean, Mr. and Mrs.
Flynn, tbe bride's parents, packed their
trunks and prepared to remove to New
York with their remaining children. Their
daughter, Edna, Is It years old snd was
educated in a convent. The news ot her
marriage has caused a sensation lu the
congregation of the Church of Our Lady
ot Sorrows, Albany avenue and Jackson
boulevard.
Tears streamed down Mrs. Flynn's cheeks
as she told of her daughter's marriage to
a Chinaman.
"It Is terrible that auch a thing could
happen," she said. I am afraid that Mr.
Flynn will go down and kill that yellow
man if we do not get away from Chicago
at once.
"My daughter has notified me that aha
la at the Auditorium Annex with the China
man. She left home on August 28, and was
married at Hammond, Ind., before a justice
of the peace. I supposed that she waa
going for a visit in the country. Then I
heard that a second ceremony was per
formed at Detroit while on the wedding
journey to New York.
"Those 'chop suey' houses are evil
places."
Joy Yen t.o Is said by local Chinamen
to have a brother In Honolulu who la mar
ried to the daughter ot an American naval
officer.
Miss Anna Mitchell, who Is to marry the
laundryman lit Galesburg, went to that
town yesterday. She met Yen Lo when
he was at the Bt. Louts fair representing
a mercantile firm. He is a partner in
laundries In Chicago, Galesburg, 111., Aledo,
111.. Hinsdale, 111., and at Grundy Center
and Fairfield, la. He Is said to be worth
$-"0,000.
Actress to Wed a Jap.
Miss Carolyn Gordon of New York Is
engaged to be married to Captain Sarula
Mariya, a cavalry officer in the Japanese
army. Miss Gordon is young, blond and
good to look upon. She plays the part of
Tessle Nlcklebacker In the Mclntyre and
Heath company, now appearing at tha New
York theater.
Miss Gordon did not yield Immediately
to the blandishments of the dashing young
cavalry officer. She met him two years
ago, before the outbreak of the war, while
ahe was In Paris studying vocal music
Mariya fell in love at once and proved to
be an ardent wooer. With the dash and
determination which have characterized his
countrymen In the war with Russia, he
laid siege to the heart and hand of Miss
Gordon, demanding an Immediate surren
der. But although more than half won,
she did not capitulate at once. She de
manded time to consider.
So, still unpledged, shs returned to this
country, while Captain Mariya went back
to Toklo and jointed his regiment. Miss
Gordon admits now that the brilliant suc
cess of the Japanese army, the fearlessness
and dash of the little men against their
big antagonists, completely won her.' So
when her lover came safely through the
struggle and returned to Toklo she could
no longer withstand his pleadings.' The
cable carried the message which sealed the
bargain and they will be married in De
cember. Captain Mariya is a graduate of Oxford
university and his family Is one of great
wealth and high standing. He owns a
large tea plantation.
Miss Gordon has been upon the stage for
about four years.
