The $1.30 was full gallon; the $1.25

The •'lnside Inn."
The visitor to the world's fair walk
ed timidly up to the clerk at the hotel
desk and asked:
"Excuse me sir; is this the Inside
Inn? And, if so, is the proprietor of
the Inside Inn in?"
"Yes" replied the clerk, with a far
away look in his eyes, "this is the In
side Inn, and you will find the pro
prietor of the Inside Inn outside by the
inn's side. He has been keeping the
Inside Inn for several weeks. He tells
me that once when he took an ocean
trip he couldn't keep his inside in,
and he didn't intend it to get outside."
"All right," said the guest, "if this
is the Inside Inn we want to see its in
side as well as its outside, before we
look inside any of the outside inns.
If we like the Inside Inn's inside and
outside better than we like the ouf>-
side inn's outside and inside we may
bring our things from outside inside
and stop inside the Inside Inn. Be
cause we won't have togo from the in
side outside or come back from the
outside iuside when we're seeing the
fair, but can remain inside or outside
the Inside Inn, it being the only inn
inside the grounds. The other ones
are on the outside and furnish no more
comforts for the guests' inside or out
side than does the Inside Inn with ex
hibits close outside at the inn's side—
that is, the Inside Inn's side, In—"
But the clerk had fainted and fallen
iuside the Inside Inn's desk and bell
boys wore hurrying with water for his
outside and brandy for his inside,
though in their excitement they got
that which was meant for his inside
outside and that which was for his
outside inside.—Baltimore American.

Hamlett, of Eagle Pass. Texas. "I suf

took all kinds of medicine without get
