A United States senator !u one of his
campaigns told this story to illustrate
the logic of an opponent: Did you ever
hear about tbe young woman in Fort
Dodge? One spring morning she sat
on the piazza of ber pretty little home
sewing a button on her husband's coat.
Tbe husband himself appeared, and
she said fretfully: "it's a perfect
shame the careless way the tailor sew
ed this button on. This Is the fifth
time I've bad to sew It on again for
you."
"Sparks."
"1 wonder." said yonng Mr. Stay
late, hunting around for subject mat

call beaua 'sparks.' **

of apparently concealing it."lt was

Why She Poeed.
As a New York photographer bowed
a sallow, tottering woman of middle
ago out of his studio he closed the
door gently and turned to a waiting
customer.
"That beats tbe Dutch," said he.
"There's a woman who has been In
bed two weeks and whose doctor sup
poses she Is there at this moment
She is convinced that she is near
death, and as she hasn't had any pic
ture of herself taken since she was a
child she got out of bed despite a
friend's protest dressed and came here
to sit to me in order that she may
leave a photograph to ber husband,
who is a traveling man and now in

back porch. My son went out to In
vestigate. and on his return my wife,
always Inquisitive, asked what had
caused tbe noise.

told her. and then I heard ber ask.
'Did you see whose they were?'

Whin Valor Balks.
A couple of Kaunas men were talk
ing of fearlessness the other day. "A.II
this talk," said one of them, "reminds
me of a peace officer I knew a number
of years ago in western Kaunas. This
officer was entirely fearless—in fact,
the kind of chap who would have
charged hades with a single bucket of
water. To look down into the barrel
of a guu in the other fellow's hand
WHS as placidly accepted an ufTalr for
him as to light his pipe. He was sent
for one day.
" "What's the mutter';' he asked.
"'Cowboy In thnt room.' said n citi
zen. designating the place "He's wild
and dangerous, lie's locked himself In.
and we're afraid he'll break out and
do us harm.
"So this otiicer opened the door of
the room and looked in. The cowboy
had a six shooter In one hand and a
•tick of dynamite In the other and
calmly remarked thai he would turn
them both loose In rase the officer
came into the room. The officer con
sidered the t.hing for n minute. Then
he backed away and as he did so re
marked:

times when a man who ain't afraid Is

Too Attentive.
"People who write begging letters
are entirely too persistent." said a
charity official. "They remind me of
a summer resort episode. A youiiL'
man went there for his two weeks' va
cntlon. He put up at n cottage. He
paid about $9 a week. Well, when he
came to depart this young man said
to the boarding mistress:
" 'Madam, you have been most atten
tive to me during my stay here.'
"'Thank you. sir; thank you very
much,' said the lady.
"'Yes,' continued the young man,
•you have been most attentive, and
not only you. but everybody—every
body in the bouse. If 1 may say so—
has been most perseverlngly attentive
to tne day and night, and, madam, to
■how my Appreciation I am going to
offer you n small present.'
"'How very kind!' said the landlady,

Puzxling Orchid Imitation*.
Orchid imitation* are a puzzle to
Bower scholars. The wbole appear
ance of the flower Is suggestive of
some ioBtH-t. sometimes to quite a re
markable degree. It does ~uot seem
easy to find any real purpose that
could be served by this resemblance,
yet no one Imagines that It can be
accidental. Any one who knew of the
bee orchid, a native of Europe, and
came upon It for the flrst time would
at once recognise it. It seems to be
a targe, velvety brown backed bee
variegated with yellow. The two pet
al* might serve well for the wings of
the Insect In the center of the lip of
the fly orchid there is a small blolsh
spot like tbe body of a fly. The two
lateral petals are slender and curiously
like the antennae of an Insect The
whole Illusion Is complete and sug
gests to tbe casual glance that a few
flies are hanging on the stem of some
plant which has cast Its flowers.«-CM
