This country could be saved a lot
Of knocks that's rather rough
If Uncle Jim would only learn
To jes' speak quick enough.
Whenever any trouble comes.
No matter in what clime,
We're surprised, but Uncle Jim,
He knew It all the time.
It's marvelous how accurate
Ills judgment always seems.
He simply smiles whene'er he reads
Of queer financial schemes.
There's nothing that's ridiculous
Nor nothin' that's sublime
Kin ever startle Uncle Jim.
He knew it all the time.

Leon Dejeau and his friend, Euill
Watts, both of New Orleans, have
taken a plunge In Illinois Central

miles away. One day he said to his
chum, young Mr. Watts:
"Rmll, whure'U we go for our va-

"Baton Rouge or Mobile," replied
Watts gloomily, "I've saved up $ I f o
but I can't afTord to spend it all on a
trip."
"Let me take the $150," wild De-
Jean. "I'll guarantee to return It to

Watts was incredulous, but he trus

A Good House

painted is as imprudent as
leaving greenbacks out in the

draft on Chicago for $346, with
which I wish to purchase two aharea
of stock in the 1111 noli Central rail-
road, to be regititered In the namea

The commission was duly executed
ind tho two shares were sent to De-
le -it. When Kmll Watts was given
his tdngle share be looked at it dubl-
ouslv. "What about the transpoita-
tlon to Chicago?" he asked.
"Just wait," answered Dejeau mys
tcrlously.
Sure enough. In the course of time
two letters arrived In New Orleans,
bearing tin Imprint of the llllnois
Centrnl railroad and addressed to
Dejeau and Watts. The message
they contained was this:
"Dear Sir: In conformity with our
ustom of fui nlsblng transportation

Dejeau and Watts looked at the
tickets with a proud sense r,f owner-

they carefully put the valuable little
slips away.
"If I had some more money," said
Dejeau. "I'd buy some Pullman
