When Papa Waa Getting Raady to At-
tend a Banquet.
l’apa was going to a banquet. It
was unusual for him to attend ban­
quets so unusual, lu fact, that tbe
children had boasted of It for a week
to all who would bear.
Naw It was the night of the ban
quet. and papa was getting ready, and
the once quiet and orderly bouse was
much upset.
"Uuu on out." said mamma, "and don’t
bother your father while he's dress
ing.’’ Papa was shaving and at the
same time committing a speech to
memory in case he should be called
upon for something Impromptu.
The tiny trickles of blood dowu bls
chin showed where the s|>eech was
getting tbe lietter part of his atten­
tion. On the bed lay a clean white
shirt, and a< ross a < hair bung papa's
dress clothes. lie hadn't worn the
dress cloth’s for two years and was
considerably stouter now.
After awhile the children, crouch
Ing Interestedly at the door, heard en
tertaining things.
“Confound the shirt!" howled papa.
"I know I washed my hands, but tbe
neckband's all dirty." Mamma’s voice
scotched him.
I
Through tbe keyhole the children
saw papa struggle Into his coat. The
stiff shirt rose almost to his ears, and
a high collar nearly sawed them off
“Doggone it!" walled papa
“The
sleeves of this coat are a mile too
short."
Then his shoes hurt him: he couldn't
get his tie fixed right; his handker
chief was hopelessly massing, and final
ly he stood miserably in the middle of
the floor.
His face was red, the perspiration
poured down his nose, his thin hair
stood up, and he was about the most
uncomfortable looking person tbe chil­
dren fjad ever seen.
"Now, then," said mamma, with a
sigh, "you're fixed. You have no idea,
dear, how nice you look."
“Oh, yes," papa snarled, “I look nice.
I don't think." Then he found his hat
and a light coat and stalked stiffly and
uncomfortably out. The children, hid­
ing behind the stair railing, saw him
depart.
“Gee," said the little boy, "when I
get big I won't go to any dinners.
They can bring mine.”
“You'll have to," said bls sister wise­
ly. “Men always have to go to din
ners. But they dress up funny, don't
they?”—Galveston News.
DEMON SHIPS.
A drill’d or “plugged" coin has be­
come something of a curiosity. Every­
one rememtiei?« the tucouvenleuce of
these mutilated coins, it was a mat­
ter of daily occurreuce to Hud one­
self in iMmsesslou of a silver, gold ot
even nickel coin defaced ill this way
Sometimes the bole was filled with
some baser metal: often It was left
open. This system of mutilating «-«ins

son need be deceived.
Nowadays the work of defacing coins
Is reduced to a fine art. The old. crude
method of plugging tbe coins will not
suffice, since the general public aud

and the Ingenuity displayed is often
