A Predicament Reversed.
"The late Bishop Fowler," said a
Buffalo Methodist, "wns a broad mind
ed man. Bigotry he abhorred. Creed,
he claimed, should never hedge oni'
good Christian from nnothcr. Sincere
creeds, no matter how diverse, should
on the contrary, bind Christians to
gethcr.
"Bishop Fowler used to tell about a
young Detroit couple, John Smith nnd
Hannah Jones.
"John Smith wns a Presbyterian
Hannah Jones was n Baptist They
hesitated about marrying because they
feared that In later life, when the lit
tle ones came, religious disputes might
arise. Thus the years passed. Neither
would renounce his or her church. John
Smith grew bald, aud Hannah Jones
developed lines about her mouth nnd
eyes. It was a complete deadlock, tho
world said.
"Then John was sent abroad for a
year by his firm to buy fancy goods.
ne nnd Hannah corresponded regular
ly. Toward the year's end by a re
markable coincidence each received
fr.wn tho other n letter, the two let
ters crossing In the mall. They said:
"Friend John Tho obstacles that stood
In the way of our marriage have at last
been removed. This day I was received
In full membership In the Presbyterian
church. HANNAH.
"Dearest Hannah We have no longer
any cround for delaying our union fur
ther. I united myself this day with the
Baptist church. JOHN."

DEAIl HANDS.
Roughened and worn with ceaseless toll
nnd care.
No perfumed grace, no dainty skill had
these.
They earned for whiter hands a Jeweled
case
And kept the scars unlovely for their
share.
Patient and slow, they had the will to
bear
The whole world's burdens, but no power
to seize
The flying Joys of life, the gifts that
please.
Tho gold and gems that others find so
fair.
Dear hands, where bridal Jewel never
shone.
Whereon no lover's kiss wns ever pressed.
Crossed In unwonted quint on the brea.-it,
I seo through tears your glory newly
won
Tho golden circlet of life's worlt well
done,
Het with tho shining pearl of perfect rc-st.

The Warning Beacon.
Tho bachelor and the benedict wore
wending homeward tliolr weary way
"Ah. you lucky married man!" sigh
ed the bachelor. "Think of ha vim; a
hearthstone, a real homo, a waiting
welcome! Look, there Is a light in the
window for you!"
"Gee! So there Is!" muttered the
benedict. "Well, there's only one way
out of that Let's go back to the club."

A Practical Suggestion.
It was his first Sunday school, and
he sat In the Infants' department
eagerly watching the superintendent
Illustrate the lesson on the board. The
superintendent drew tho path to heav
enone straight line and started the
figure of a man on It Gradually the
man became larger and larger, and
finally when he arrived at the gate of
heaven he could not get in.
The superintendent turned to his
small audience and in a tragical and
sorrowful tone said, "You see. he is so
puffed up with sin that he cannot en
ter in."
"Try him sideways, mister; try him
sideways," came the small, shrill voleo
from the infants' department Phila

'Tho Democracy of Death.
In the democracy of the dead all men
at last are equal. There is neither
rank nor station nor prerogative In the
republic of the grave. At this fatal
threshold the philosopher ceases to be
wise und the song of the poet is silent.
Dives relinquishes his millions, Laza
rus bis rags. Tho poor man Is as rich
as the richest, and the rich man Is as
poor as the pauper. Tho creditor loses
his usury, and tho debtor is acquitted
of his obligation. There the proud
,man surrenders his dignities, the poli
tician his honors, tho worldling his
pleasures; the Invalid needs no physi
cian, and the laborer rests from unre
quited toll.
Here at last is nature's final decree
In equity. The wrongs of time are re
dressed, injustice is expiated, the Irony
of fnto is refuted, the unequal distribu
tion of wealth, honor, capacity, pleas
ure and opportunity, which make life
so cruel and Inexplicable, ceases In the
realm of death. Tho strongest there
baa no supremacy, and the weakest
needs no defense. The mightiest cap
tain succumbs to that invincible ad
versary, who disarms allko victor and
(he vanquished. John J, Ingalls.
A Maine Whisky.
Sir Thomas Dewar told an amusing
story at tho opening of Dewnr nouse
concerning a liquid which he once
sampled In the prohibition state of
Maine, U. S. A. When ho asked what
it was made of he was told tho blender
took a gallon of wood alcohol, put a
v, Ineglnssf ul of glycerin In It to mellow
It, then ground down some plug tobac
co nnd strained It through a cheese
cloth to give It a flavor and united the
wholo with a gallon of water. It was
called "squirrel whisky" because
"those who drank It talked nutty and
climbed trees." London Globe.
The Locust Story Outclassed.
Tho king commanded the court story
Jeller to unfold a narrative without an
end.
"Onco on a tlmo thero was a huge
building filled with corn," began the
story teller. "An enormous swarm of
locusts swooped down on tills tremen
dous edifice nnd"
"Stopl" commanded the king. "That
tale is a bearded chestnut 1 waut
something new. But It must bu a sto
ry without an end."
The story teller departed. Several
hours Inter he returned nnd was ad
mlttcd to the royal presence.
"O most mighty monarch," he bo
gan, "I have found one who can rogiile
you with a story which Is devoid of
conclusion."
"Produce!" cried the king.
The story teller passed from the
throne room, but soon returuod Ho
was accompanied by a woman.
"Your highness, this lady will tell a
story which has no end," announced
tho story teller.
Then the woman told the king every
thing she was going to purchase when
her husband had his salary raised.
The king was Btlll listening. Har

The Saving of the Englich.
I caunot disguise from myself the
helpless dependence of the British em
pire on us (the Irish) for vital elements
of talent and character. Without us
the English race would simply die of
respectability within two generations.
Bernard Shaw.
He Saw With His Mouth.
"A wealthy nnd Indolent countryman
of mine," said a Frenchman, "spent
several years In Amerlon. On his re
turn to Paris a learned society invited
him to dine.
"Tell us your Impressions of that
great and rich country where you re
mained so long.' they said to him at
the dinner.
"And he pondered a long while.
Then he said:
" 'The American redhead duck Is de
lightful. "But the learned men about him
pushed aside that statement He had
been in America eleven years. Surely,
they said, he must havo observed other
things.
"And the guest, after n very great
while of thought, said:
" 'The American canvasback duck is
also delightful.' "
Tho Missing Frog.
The pupils of n distinguished pro
fessor of zoology, a man well known
for his eccentricities, noted one day
two tidy parcels lying on their In
structor's desk as they passed out nt
tho noon hour. Ou their return to the
laboratory for tho afternoon lecture
they saw but one. This the professor
tonk carefully up In his hand as he
opimed his lecture. "In tlm study of
vertebruta we have taken the frog as
a typo. Let us now examine the gas
trocnemius muscles of this dissected
specimen." So saying, tho professor
untied the string of his noat parcel
and disclosed to view a ham sundwlch
and a boiled egg. "But I have eaten
my lunch." snld the learned man be

"A charming actress sat beside mo

some one began to talk about wifely
extravagance.
"Tho actress listened to tale after
tale of the ruinous extravagance of
wives, and flnnlly she said:
'"Wives' extravagance oh, yes. You
men nre all alike. You are nil like the
broker who at midnight nt his club
hiccoughed, wiped his eyes and said
brokenly:

"Yes," he said, after explaining to
his wife that tho lodgo meeting had
been a very Important and a somewhat
protracted one, thus making it Impos
sible for him to get home a minute
earlier than ho did, "and there were

fools of themselves you could imagine.
You couldn't find two worse chumps In
a row of counties clear across this

"I suppose not," cho replied. "Who

No Hair Splitting.
"But," argues the exasperated auto
moblllst who has been haled before
tho country Justice, "you haven't the
shadow of a reason for arresting and

tell you that."
"The automobull was a-standln' still

"But my machlno was not moving!

"Tho evidence Is all against you,"
coldly decides tho Justice. "Twenty

TOWN BOOM AGENTS.
Every Citizen May B&come a Lo
cal Publicity Bureau.
PROMOTE FACTORY SITES.
Merchants Particularly Concerned lr
Having Such Establishments Locate.
Somo Hints as to How a Prosperity
Campaign May Be Made.
The city publicity bureau Is becom
ing a Oxed institution in this country.
Many cities, particularly in the north
west, maintain regular bureaus for th
propagation of publicity concerning
their attractions and advantages.
Even Boston, the "hub of the uni
verse," fifth in population In tho Unit-1
cd States, is engaged in such a cam
paign for city booming.
It Is perhaps unreasonable to expect
a small town to maintain a paid pub
licity agent, yet there are some of 'the
smaller cities which seem to find it
profitable. The average town must be
boomed by volunteers. Every citizen'
may constitute himself n publicity
agent nnd proceed to make his town
better known to outsiders.
The big city bureaus take up such
matters as factory sites and opportuni
ties, local trade advantages and tbo
like. The small town resident can do
likewise with n reasonable promise ot
accomplishing something for tho good
of his community. In theso days off,
overcrowding In large cities, with)
high cost of living high rents for floor
space and other unfavorable conditions
many manufacturers nre on the look
out for nvallable country towns In
which" to locate their plants or' to es
tablish branch plants.
The advantages of a location in a.
smaller- town nre obvious. In nearly
every town of a few thousand people
there are many young persons unem
ployed who would welcome heartily a
chance to got a Job with some manu
facturing concern. Both boys and girls,
young men nnd young women, are
available In the average town for fac
tory work. In the absence of such op
portunities thoy are Inclined to leave
home and seek work In the cities,
where nt host the chances for success,
and happiness are but meager.
With ninny parents In the smaller
towns thero Is constantly present the
pathetic druad of parting from thelr
children, because the latter, approach
ing maturity, are nmbltlous to get lnto
the big world outside and earn more
than they can enrn nt home. With a
manufacturing concern located in your
town you oau keep your children at
home, whero tho conditions of living;
nre vastly superior to the city condi
tions. The town merchant Is particularly
concerned in this matter. A branch:
shoo factoiy, for Instance, not only
will give employment to the unem
ployed at home, enabling them to earn
money Por spending nt homo stores,
but It will bring new families to town.
A monthly payroll of several thou
sand dollnis means Just thnt inucb
more mouev lu local circulation. The
merchant gets the benefit of tho in
creased demand for all the necessaries
of life and for some of the luxuries.
Almost nuy town possesses a suita
ble site for some sort ofmannfactur-
Ing establishment In good agricul
tural communities a canning factory
works In every direction to benefit the
people. It supplies a home market for)
the farmer's and gardener's produce.
It gives employment to home people.
It brings more money for home circu
lation. If there is uo fund In sUthl for the
employment of an agent to push
things In this lino. tl loi-nl business
people rnljihl get tot'iucr und do ::iu h
towuid making the nUvait;i;.fs of t.te
town known to - muauf:u hirers In
search of locations outside tho bis
cities. One excellent plan iugn-stea
by an export In these matters is- tot
have a tasty booklet or circular print
ed at the local prlritery. netting fortl
the merits of the town aud Hurrotind
Ing couutry, giving population figures',
transportation udvauiages, prices off
available factory sites aud such other
Information us the occasion mny Indi
cate. This booklet should bo kept on
hand by the merchants and other busi
ness people In quantities siillicleut te
enable them to Inclose copies la everjr
letter written to outsiders.
Another plan that has worked wellA
In some towns is for tho business mem
to club together and buy some regular
advertising space In the home newspa
per, where Interesting Information con
cerning the town may be kept stand
ing. As a mntter of fact only the
type will he kept stnndtrjg. The Infor
mation thus expressed will travel
widely. It can be made to travel stUIf
more widely If the citizens will secure
extra copies and mall them where they
will do the most good.
A town In which every responsible?
citizen is n walking, talking, writing,
fighting publicity bureau and town
boomer Is not calculated to remain
very loug an unknown quantity. The
outside world will discover that that
town Is on the map and will not have
to stick a pin in the atlas at that point
to remember tho fact
Tho writer once knew a man in a
Missouri town who was regarded by
bis friends as n benevolent lunatic be
cause he went around talking up hl
own town as the best burg on the map
of the United States, no visited manyi
other towns and cities, always blow
ing the horn of his homo town. That
man no longer Is regarded ns n cranfc.
His talk has built up his town, and
Inst year the grateful citizens contrib
uted from the money he had enabled
them to make and bought htm an arj
tomoblle.
