Now, don't all answer at once. Yes, we hear you; Battle of Gettysburg, eh? And No. 2, you say it was the blockade. There's another who says simply sup'erior numbers. Well, you are all wrong. Tobacco won the Civil War. The' tobacco editor can prove it. follow on. What made General Grant a great general and soldier? Why, tobacco. If he had not had that old black cigar sticking between his tight, grim lips the Battle of Lookout Mountain might have been lost. Standing alongside of him was General Thomas, some general, too. But it looked to him as though the Yanks were going to give in. One signal from Grant and the charge would have been abandoned, but ho chewed steadily six times on his favorite weed and then reinforced, replied: "O, give 'em a little time." And then at the Wilderness. Half a dozen of his staff were about him when a huge shell fell right amongst them. Most of them ducked but VT. S. only took a tighter strangle hold on his cigar, and while he was chewing it he got an idea. Pulling out a compass he quickly computed the angle of the shell's direction and in jig time he trained six guns on that Confederate battery and put the muffler on it for good. Grant smoked every minuto al most up to the finish, and even General Lee admitted that his choice in smokes was nifty. A very fine lady once complained to Mr. Lincoln that she could hardly stand to talk with General Grant be cause of that "terrible tobacco smoke." "If you find out what brand it Is, ' winked Lincoln, "I'll be glad to send the same brand to a lot of other generals." Fifty years hence they will tell you how tobacco won this war by keeping- the couple million Yank soldiers happy. And, old boy, you Willi the bank roll, if you don't loosen up prety soon, we would hate to be in your place when United States Grant claps his eye on you in the next world. Old Man Found Comfort in His Silent Companion fee. 21.—He was so old tnat he might have been twin to rather Time, and so young that liis skin bloomed like a pink rose on a bush. He was so busy that It was taking a kit of tools to fix a door knob, and so idle that he paused at his tinkering, under the impression that a woman at a table ought to know the history of his life. "Yessum. Im an old soldier—artillery. Some Johnny give me a bullet that makes me remember him every time it rains. Gettysburg. Sometimes the old fight feels so close behind me that I carr" smell powder and hear the pounding of drums—but when I get to figurin' that I've passed my Bible limit, and that all my folks are gone wellum, I tell you, It's a mighty lonesome job bein' the Inst button on old Gabe*s coat, as the sayin' is." The woman who was hav ing the door knob fixed admitted that it was a mighty lonesome Job. She had experience to go by. "Yessum, it's natyre for a man to want companionship, and if he can't do any better, he takes to dump crit ters—and he might go farther and fare worse. I got so lonesome one time last year that I paid out a dollar and a half for a duck, and that duck, ma'am, is almost as much company as an entire family. "Yessum, a duck is real sociable when you can't do any better. Some of these here writer men claim that dumb critters lacks sense, but I tell you, mum, it seems to me that duck has got the knowledge to talk, if &o be it mout. It has got bright, know in' eyes—and it's a right purty little thing, too, with fine bluish, greenish feathers and a sort of speckledy down under its tail and wings." i "What kind of a duck is it'.'" "A stuffed duck, mum." PRETTY ANKLES WON HPS BAND And Mal>le I'ertorson Was Awarded Cup by California Artists Hers were the prettiest pair of an kles In all California. Lucky girl! They won her country wide fame, a beautiul cup and an army captain for a husband. Most demurely did she display them as the committee of distin guished Pacific Coast artists paused before her chair in the exhibition hall at Los Angeles. In the background surged the crowd—mostly men—that followed the artists as they passed by each girl in the "prettiest ankle" compe tition. Miss Mabel Pederson heaved a sigh of relief as the artists went on to the next girl and the crowd fol lowed. All save one man, a fine looking chap in tbe uniform of a United States Army captain. An hour later, when she was being awarded the cup as winner of first prize, her closest girl friend appeared with Captain M. L. McKeever in tow. They were introduced. For a half minute they were alone. "This Is so sudden!" She simply could not help giving expression to the time honored ejaculation. But the captain must have been an elo quent pleader, for their wedding day has been set. —Boston Post. •HIGH COST OF OOURTIXG All the world may love a lover, but'the framers of the new war tax bill adopted a roundabout way ot showing their affection, asserts T. F. Logan in Leslie's. The congres sional measures to raise additional revenue makes a particularly affec tionate assault on the bankroll of the young man who wishes to dem onstrate his devotion to a maid. If the object of the youth's passion lives reasonably near him, he may escape the new tax on telegrams and telephone messages that cost less than 15 cents. Every love let ter he writes will cost him an ad ditional penny, however, even if he incloses only a single burning poem. If a trip to the theater is planned, commuting lovers who live more than 80 miles from the play house must give financial assistance to the war on the Hohenzollerns. Actual admission to the theater de mands an additional ten per cent on the cost of the tickets. Natur ally, the dear girl will wish to make herself particularly alluring to her ardent swain. To do so, she must pay a two per cent tax on the per fume essence, toilet water, lip rouge or face powder that to her seems the most effective device.

Appraisers Byron G. White and Eugene G. Hay upheld the arguments of H. A. I£. Jacques, the owner of the bit of ohina, that it Is a rare work of art and of educational value; therefore, not subject to duty. By so deciding they reversed the custom house officials at San Kranclsco, who held that it was a rare article of merchandise and as such subject to an ad valorem tax of 40 per cent. Representatives of the American Museum of Art showed great Inter est In the bowl, which is believed to have been used by some artistic Chinaman who lived In the time of the Sting dynasty, which extended from 960 A. D. to 1278 A. D, USE OP LEISURE TIME , A FACTOR IN SUCCESS "How do you spend your leisure time?" is the question which appears on the application blanks for employ ment in some of the largest business housas to-day. To somo this may seem an unnecessary Intrusion the private life of the individual, but the way in which a worker utilizes the Interval between 0 and 6 p. m. and 8 or 9 a. m., as well aa his holidays and Sundays, has an important bear ing on his efficiency. Dull heads and unsteady hands, which are often the by-products of misused leisure hours, are distinct liabilities in any work, whether It be mechanically routine I or of the sort that requires judgment and adaptability.—lndustrial Conser vation, New York. 13 Your Health CASCARAfc?
