The Poor Relation
"I used to wonder." mid the poor
relation, "why our Aunt Marl or
our Uncle Bill didn't glv ua a little
of their money. Now there'! two
families, relation of ours, both got
tit of money, more'n they know
what to do with, as the aaylng la,
but they never gave na a cent, and
we bad ao many usea for It.
"They had horses and carriages
they've both got an automobile now
too and tbey both had flue houses
and they lived In good style, and wa
had to plug from week to week for
what we did have, with never any
margin for luxurlea or even for some
of the comforts, and they knew
these things, or they must have
known them, and they might hare
given n something without ever
missing It, but they never gave us
anything.
"They'd , ask us to dinner some
times and when we went they ased
to treat us Just as nice as could be,
and sometimes they came to see us,
but never any money, and tbey had
ao much. After" a-whlla I began to
get a little light on this.
"For one thing, people that have
got money are -pretty apt to hang
on to It, but after a while and this
I found to be true also of many othei
people supposed to be equally well
fixed after: a while I began to dis
cover that relatively speaking, that
la considering the wsy tbey lived.
Aunt Maria and. Uncle Bill didn't
have much more spare money than
w did. They certainly did have a
lot more than we did, a lot more, but
they bad Just the aame ambitions
and aspirations and heartburning
and that sort of thing that we did.
and U cost them a heap more to keep
up with the procession that they
were In than It did us to keep up
with the procession that we were In
"For Instance, to get right down
to simple facta there's Julia that's
my wife, you understand she does
not have half the clothes she'd like
to have; she doesn't begin to have
the dresses that the wife of a friend
of oura does who earns more money
than I do, and so naturally ahe would
like to have a few more dresses to
keep up as good as anybody with the
people we know.
"But. do you know, I think our
rich Aunt Maria has Just the same
trouble for herself and her daugh
ters to keep up with the people that
they know? Yes, sir. I'll bet you
tbey have Just the same troubles
along thla line that we do.
"They've got lots of money, b'Jt
they know people that have got mi re
money than they have. Just as we
know people that have got more
money than we have, and I'll bei
they worry more over that than we
do. Ton know we all have our trou
bles; we're all trying to keep up
with aomebody, and I'll bet thai
Aunt Maria and her girls worry more
over their clothes than Julia does
over hers.
"Julia likes Jewelry and mighty
little of It she's got 1 haven't said
anything to her about It, but I'm
going to get her a nice little diamond
ring for Christmas. But mighty lit
tle Jewelry has Julia got, and Aunt
Maria and her girls have got lots
Why, Aunt Maria has got a pearl
necklace. But don't you suppose
that she knows women that have
got much finer pearls, such as she'd
give anything to have but that she
can't afford T And don't you suppose
that her girls feel Just the same
when tbey meet girls that have got
finer thlnea than thv havA?
"Why, it's as sure as anything
you know. The poor relations don'i
have a monopoly of all the heart
burnings. by a loug shot. We all have
our' troubles.
"Take Uncle Bill, with a barrel of
money and an extravagant family
Do you know I think there must be
times when his checkbook must be
aoout as lean for Dim as mine is for
me times when I think be must
come about as near to being strap
ped for ready money as I am? I
think ao. And Uncle BUI Is consld
arable of a hummer too.
"Anyhow, I no longer wonder or
worry over why they don't give us
something, I've stopped being a poor
relation. ' I've got 'health and
strength and I sleep rcll nights and
I'm going to strike out on my own
account and get rich myself.
"And what am I going to do about
tij poor, relations then? M m
Well, we'll see about that when we
get the money." New York Bun.

THE ARCHIE
PISCOPAL SCOOP
Burgess (we'll call him) bad to
do something to redeem himself. He
had everything In his favor, but he
wouldn't work. For more than a
week tbe assignment schedule had
borne tbe melancholy memorandum
from the chief -"Burgese, Ao day
off for a month." The man at the
desk was vigorously carrying out
the mandate, and In addition doing
all he could to make It 'hard work
for Burgess. The vlctlnt had noth
ing to say and he was keeping sober.
It all started wth a Jamboree when
tha Philadelphia newspaper men la
ttted tha gang to come ever and be
their guests. Two breweries, one
liquor house and several wine agents
gratuitously and graciously - con
tributed the Joy. The Jaunt was for
one day only, but at least three of
the gang wore four days getting
home. Burgess had been the cat-up
ot tbe festivities, and wben the time
waa over refused to go home.- He
put on evening dress to go to a La
dles' Press Club reception In honor
of -the visitors, and two days later
was found asleep on the beach at
Atlantic City, with children building
sand figures about him. He still
wore evening dress and he couldn't
explain.
' When he returned 'to the office he
fqund a harsh reception waiting fdr
blm, and only past services saved a
dismissal. Then came the no-day-otf
mandate. He loafed on the day
work and If It was a Police Court
assignment he went to a matinee at
the burlesque house and trusted to
luck and the rest of the gang. Then
he waa shifted to "emergency," with
a awing from 8 p. m. -to 4 a. m. He
waa still In bad. Burgess arrived on
time one evening, and known only
to bis Innermost self, he had resolved
U show them all something. He sat
down at his desk, pulled out a draw
er, tltlted his feet on It and gaxed va
cantly out of the window. The city
editor broke the reverie.
"Say, Burgess!" he yelled; "do
you still rtde that wheel?"
"Yes," said the reporter; "I've
got It with me now."
"Fine!" replied the city editor.
"Jump uptown and get me a picture
of tbls girl who ejoped with her
father's clerk. You'll have no trou
ble; her family likes notoriety. Only
be quick; I want to 'make a good,
big cut for to-morrow."
Eurgess went downstairs. Jumped
on his wheel and started for the pic
ture. On bit return trip he was com
ing along at a lively rate when a
tarkly clad man suddenly atepped
from the curb and right la front ot
the wheel. In a flash he was oa blm
and wheel, rider and man rolled Into

to his feet and, recognising him, felt

bark. He apologised and the run

Burgess turned tbe picture In an
received some more work. At near
ly midnight he turned a bunch of
copy Into the city editor, remarking:
"We've got that alone."
The city editor read Burgess' own
headlines on the story:

"Certainly It'a all right," replied
Burgess. "You don't suppose I'd
rake a yarn like that?"
"Well Hut where did you get
It?"
Burgess leaned over the desk and
lutetly remarked:
' "I'm the unknown cyclist." "
"You don't say!" exclaimed the
Ity editor. .
"Yea," said Burgess, triumphantly.
'Give me a bicycle and a couple of
