AN IDLE WISH. "Oh, I wish I were as splendidly built and as handsome as—as —" "As whom?" "Not as whom, but as one of those fellows that are depicted in clothing advertisements."

"More than 5,000 elephants a year goto make our piano keys," remarked the student boarder who had been reading the scientific notes in a pat ent medicine almanac. "For the land's sake!" exclaimed the landlady. "Ain't it wonderful what some animals can be trained to do?" As to Bottle Babies. A Kansas editor braves a lot of scorn when he declares that one way to stop the ravages of tuberculosis in milk is to not have any bottle babies around the house. Some one will tell him. if he doesn't watch out, that bot tle babies make bridge clubs possible. —Kansas City Journal. Fulfilling Instructions. The managing editor wheeled his chair around and pushed a button in the wall. The person wanted entered. "Here," said the editor, "are a number of directions from outsiders as to the best way to run a newspaper. See that they are all carried out." And the ollico boy, gathering them all into a large waste basket, did so.—Green Bag. Its Headquarters. Once upon a time a child who was aslced upon an examination paper to define a mountain range replied: "A large-sized cook stove." The same method of reasoning seems togo with older growth. A recent examination paper at the Sheffield Scientific school at Yale contained the question: "What is the office of the gastric juice?" And the answer on one paper said: "The stomach." —Everybody's Maga zine. Cumulative Salary. Nathaniel Osborne, who used to blow the organ in tho Brick church in F airhaven, was once asked how much salary he received. "Twelve hundred dollars," he replied. "Twelve hun dred!" exclaimed the questioner in surprise. "Yes," replied Nat, "but that's for 100 years." Man Does Not Knffw How to Live. Modern, life so depends upon med ical science that, whether humanity is willing or unwilling, the profession is indispensable to progress. Because man's life is so artificial, he is the only animal that does not know how to live, and must be assisted on every hand by the science and imitation of nature.—Philadelphia Press. Woman Is a Puzzle. Woman is a puzzle. She will get up the coldest night to let the cat out and will talk baby talk to it. But if she has to get up, even on a pleasant night, to let her husband in, she gets mad as blazes, and he doesn't hear the last of it for a week.—Tyler (Tex.) News. Each a Complement of the Other. Yet, as the great Ruskin said: "We are foolish in speaking of the superior ity of one sex to the other. Each has what the other has not; each com pletes the other. They are in noth ing alike, and yet the happiness and perfection of both depends on each other and what the other can give." Things Needful for Success. It does not matter whether you are a plowman or a statesman. The one is as necessary to the world as the other. And the former when entered upon with the right spirit and pursued with honest intent can be made a shining success, while the latter may degenerate into a dismal failure if it has not character, integrity and de termination to succeed at the back of It. Not Altogether Bad. We once casually knew an old pro fane, wicked, and irreligious lawyer, and we did not like him at all. On one occasion the wealthy relatives of a man who had committed a heinous crime went to this lawyer to employ him to defend this man. Ho gruffly replied in substance: "I need n irm ey as badly as any of the lawyers, but you oan t raise enough to employ me to defend that man." Since then our I respect for that old lawyer has been i materially enlarged.—Petty (Tex.) i Enterprise^ Origin of an Old Conundrum. i "Moses called the first strike," says I a labor leader.
