BEST GAMBLING BYSTEM.
Whe One That Will Surely Beat Fare
and Roulette,
“Every confirmed gambler in the
world has spent more or less time try-
ing to figure out some system to beat
the game,” sald a well known northern
sporting man. ‘I'he commonest and
most plausible scheme 18 the one known
a8 ‘progression.’ It Is simply a dou-
blipg of bets until a winning occurs,
and theoretically It is perfect, but the
trouble Is that all gambling games
bave a limit, and the doubling process
increases a wager with such enormous
oe rapidity that it is apt to get over the
stipulated amount before the winning
takes place. :
“] was at Monte Carlo last spring,”
continued the speaker, “and was sur-
prised at the number of touts who in-
tested the grounds peddling ‘sure
thing’ systems to break the bank. The
fudicrous part of it was that most of
the peddlers were seedy and poverty
stricken In appearance, yet they pur.
ported to sell secrets which would in-
fallibly enrich any purchaser. I asked
one fellow why he didn’t try his sys.
tem himself and buy a new hat, and
be replied very glibly that he was
‘working for a syndicate’ and under
* bonds not to play.
“Nearly all of these systems are
based on progression and would be im-
possible in high play owing to the ca-
sino limit. Nevertheless 1 saw a num-
be- of small progression players at the
tables and was told that they have
been a fixture there for many years.
They were nearly all horrible looking,
Bloodless old women, who began with
the smallest possible wager and quit
when they won 20 francs, or less than
$4. A house official Informed me that
they were tolerated about the place on
account of age and infirmity and that
their daily winnings were regarded in
the light of a pension.
“In the days of open gambling In
New Orleans 1 remember there used
to be several broken down sports who
were said to make a living off the
games by ‘progression playing.’ I have
my doubts about it, however. Tha
best system and the only system that
will beat faro and roulette is to stay
away.” —- New Orleans Times- Demo

Rend This Before You Write,
Never write poetry until you are at
feast 80. unless you fall in love when
ft will come to you like the measles.
Youn would better begin with stories—
that Is, If you have a leading idea and
can invent situations. Do not attempt
the novel until you have passed your
fortieth year. A novel requires a
knowledge of men wnd manners, &
study of human character, and powers
to create dialogue and invent surprises.
{ I know that there have been instances
when very young men have written
yen poems and novels, but these
| were freaks of genius which do not
| often occur. Avoid attempts at bu-
mor. That mine has already been
worked for more than it {8 worth, and
the best of it seems to be labored.
What the funny men do produce is not
equal to the unintentional humor
which is to be found in congressional
speeches on the tariff, and in the old
fashioned epitaphs In the country
ehurchyards.— Thomas Dunn English
In Success.
Uses of Olive Oil,
Olive oil should be found in every
aursery and on every medicine shelf.
In time of croup it can be given fre
quently and will not disturb the diges-
tion, as do many medicines. It is often
given in place of cod liver ofl and is as
effective in building up the system and
far less disagreeable. It Is recom-
mended by many specialists both as a
food and a tonic. A certain young
ehemist never has a cold or requires
sny medicine except a spoonful of
olive oil every night and morning,
which he takes regularly. He seldom
wears an overcoat.—New York ‘Crib

“There wasn’t any,” responded the

“I've just been up against a case of

{ “You look too green to burn.” chuc-

“It’s on me, just the same. My girl

“Where does the combustion come
in?” interrupted the officer.
“Come out, you mean,” corrected the
youth.
“Come off!”
