Sam, he was erowding thirty-eight and looked a trifle more; Mrs. Sam was rather gray, though only thirty-four. ‘‘This farmin’s mighty uphill work, *nd don’t you reckon, maw, that Willie with his gift ‘of gab would make a hit at law?’’ ‘‘Indeed, he would,’’ said Mrs. Sam, ‘‘’'nd as I’ve said before, our Tommy’s smooth at figurin’ ’nd ought to run a store.”” ““’Nd Dick”’, said Sam, ‘‘can size up men; he’s firm, but not a erank; he’s got-a careful, level head, ’nd ought to run a bank.”” ‘‘Our Susie has a better voice than most kids of her age; it seems to me”’, said Mrs. Sam, ‘‘she’d star upon the stage.”’ Sam Hadley raised his corn-cob pipe, and Mrs. Sam her spool; they vowed they’d work their knuckles bare to send their kids to school! Beside the blazing kitchen stove, aglow with erimson lids, Sam Hadley and the Mrs. sat'and talked about the kids. Sam, he was crowding fifty-eight and getting older” fast; Mrs. Sam was grayer, too, than when we saw them last. ““Our Willie’s written home for cash, 'nd don’t you reckon, maw, that we can send a little more, since things are slow at-law?’’ ‘‘Indeed we. can,’’ said Mrs. Sam, ‘“‘’nd Tommy’s written too, the goods ain’t movin’ in the store, 'nd we must help him through.”” ¢‘I have a line today from Dick; his bank has gone ker-smash, ’nd, maw, to square his own account he needs a thousand eash.’’ ‘“’Nd, Sam, our Susie 'nd her man have had an awful fuss, 'nd Susie 'nd her little ones are goin’ to live with us. Oh, won’t it sécem like Heaven, Sam, with that sweet voice at home? We’ll eddicate her little ones as we have done our own!”’ eob pipe, ’nd Mrs. Sam her spool Sam Hadley raised his corn ; they vowed they’d send their kids the cash, and Susie’s kids to school ! HOME COOKING “My husband,” said a member of the Woman’s club, “has no bad habits.” “Does he never smoke?” another member asked, “Yes, he likes a cigar just after he has eaten a good meal. But I suppose on an average he does mot smoke of- tener than once a month.” Then she wondered why the other members laughed. * * * Doctors may be scarcer on account of the war but there are still plenty of proprietary medicines guaranteed to cure all the ills of man or beast. * * * The Frenchman didn’t like the look of the barking dog barring his way. “It's all right,” said his host. “Don’t you know the proverb, ‘Barking dogs don't bite?'” “Ah, yes,” said the Fr&\chman, “] know ze proverb, you know ze proverb; but ze dog—does he know ze proverb?” * * * Lot’s wife turned to salt only after she had turned to rubber. * * * P IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE, BUT MOST OF US KNOW THIS ONLY BY HEAR- SAY. * * * HIS CONFIDENCE It used to be a pretty easy matter to start a bank. One country town banker was telling recently how he happened to get in the game. ‘T had an empty store room on my hands and nothing else to do,” he said, “go painted ‘BANK’ on the window. The first day a man came in and deposited $100; the second day another man dropped in and deposited $250, and so, by George, along abount the third day I got enough confidence in the bank to put in a hundred myself.” 4 * #* * IT ISN'T THE WOMAN WHO IS RAISING SIX CHILDREN THAT IS NERVOUS.

She liked the change, how- - ever, and in writing home, telling about her amusements and_diven sions she said: “I've fallen completely in with ping pong.” “What did | tell you?” exclaimed her father. “Gone to the city and taken up with one of those danged chinamen.”* love * * MR.

As a matter of fact, however, the profession- . al public. man has little. time for the exhaustive study of any great topic, while the man who has kept out of the turmoil of politics until middle life, often comes into politics with a deep fundamental knowledge of every great public question. As for executive abil- ity, the size of the job is not the only thing tending toward its development. In either of these qualities we will put ‘Woodrow Wilson up against Theodore Roosevelt any day, or Lynn J. Frazier up against L.
