"Wake up!" exclaimed Mrs. Mul

"Don't disturb them then." said the

"Well, I'd rather be a widow's sec

vestryman, we had better take up I he
collection before the sermon this morn
ing. "
"Indeed?"
"Yes, I am going to preach on Kcon
omy." "Speaking of bad faith," remarked
Joggers, "I fell out of a window once
and the sensation was terrible. Dur
ing my transit through the air I really
believe I thought of every mean act I
had ever committed In my life."
"H'm," growled Jiggers, "you must
have fallen an awful distance."
"I did think for a time that man was
some pumpkins," remarked the weary
head of the house.
"What made you change vour
mind?"
"Well, just as I can quit heating up
the house to keep the cold out I must
begin buying ice to keep the heat out.
It seems to me that there should bo
some way of averaging this thing up."
"You say," tittered the fiance of the
vegetariun, "that you could fairly eat
me. Now, isn't that contrary to the
tenets of your belief?"
"Not at all," asserted the vegetarian
"but if you ate me"
"I should simply be eating a peach."
No.use talking, tho meat diet isn't
the only one that makes the mind ac
tive. A ship at sea has a crew of thirty
men, fifteen white and fifteen colored.
They run short of provisions and must
throw one-half of the crew overboard,
so that the other half can live to get
ashore. They decide to stand in a cir
cle, and beginning with tho captain,
count off, and every ninth man to bo
thrown overboard until one-half of the
crew is gone. How can they be stood
so as to save tho white men?
AFTER TEDDY.
From tho Montgomery (111,) News.
The old maids of western New York
held a convention atl'ittsford last week
which was acorker. Miss Amelia Hig
ginson, of Honeoyo Falls, is tho pres
ident of this unique organization of
ancient virgins and the way she went
after President Uoosevelt in her open
ing speech was a caution to cats.
"The President belioves in tho rear
ing of large families," she screamed.
"He has a right to his opinion, but
when he places childlessness in the
same category with criminal acts, he
goes too far. The President is the fa
ther of what we Americans would call
a large family, but be is not the moth
er of a large family. ( Applause, dur
ing which several delegates exclaimed
'O, My!' and applied their smelling
bottles to their noses). We have beard
nothing about 'race suicide' from the
mothers of America, and we never will
bet the President grapple with the tar
iff, trusts and the coming election. -i-
They are more in his line. He can
safely leave the question of babies
in the hands of the women of this great
republic,"
Amelia is right The President is
not a mother and he never can be Nay
verily! bet him attend to his own bus
iness and when he wants a little re-
creath let him hunt bull elks and
mountain rams with Panthereyed Pete
In the mountain fastness of Jackson's
Hole He has no business attempting
the safety-pin and paregoric act. The
mothers of America, assisted by the
advice and eounsel of Amelia biggin
son and her ancient aggregation of
vestal virgins, will see that the race
doesn't run out!

KISbES AT S200 PER.
Krotn the Minneapolis Journal.
At Middletown, N. Y., a jury
has fixed $200 as the price a middle-aged
man must pay for kiss
ing a middle aged woman against
her will.
This is too little and too much.
A kiss obtained from a middle
aged woman against her will is
not worth a cent. A kiss obtain
ed from auy woman against her
will, whatever her age or previous
condition of servitude is not worth
a cent.
A kiss obtained from any wo
man who it peisonally attractive,
with her full consent and hearty
participation, is worth more than
$200 much more and a kiss he
stowed under these conditions by
a high bred, warm blooded woman i
of middleago is simply beyond
price.
True, there can bo no way of
regulating the market value of a
kiss, but if there were, ouly mil
lionaires could afford to kiss middle-aged
women of the' proper
pulchritude and pedigree, and
then not often.
Kisses stolen from or bestowed
upon girls, debutants r other ex
cecdingly young women are
thrown away. It is a shameful
waste of raw material. It is ouly
the ladies who have arrived at au
age when they stop counting who
are fully equipped aud qualified
to sign, seal and deliver a kiss
that will burn a hole through sand
paper. And these are the only
kisses worth worrying about or
striving after.
Wasn't Cleopatra 40 when she
did all the damage? Do you for
one instant suppose that Sappho
was a bread and butter miss?
The man who buys a kiss is a
chump; the man who steals one
from unwilling lips ought to be
locked up in a foolish house; the
man who steps up like a wiuner
and sips it from the ripe, red lips
of maturity is a gentleman and a
hero, always in demand.
DISASTROUS WRECK.
Carelessness is resixinsible for
many a railroad wreck and the
same causes are making human
wrecks of sufferers from throat
and lung troubles. But since the
advent of Dr. King's New Discov
ery for consumption, coughs and
colds, even the worst cases can
be cured, and hopeless resigna
tion is no longer necessary. Mrs.
Lois Cragg of Dorchaster, Mass.,
Is one of many whose life was sav
ed by Dr. King's New Discovery.
This great remedy is guaranteed
