Mr. Winkle Cravat Hit One Brilliant
Idea and It Gets Him In Right
With Fair One.
She was a conceited young thing, as
so many young things are, have always
been and will continue to be, and, al-
though she had allowed Winkle Cfavat
to call that afternoon, she Was ^eat-
ing him quite distantly, for she* had
in idea that young men receding chins
and cigarettes Were not good enough
for her.
Just as the only thing Winkle Cravat
could think of to say seemed to be
something about going, he had a bril-
liant' idea.
*Do #ou know, Miss Stimkins—haw
-—do ybui khow, I think the English
way of spelling parlour, o-u-r, yon
knew, is so much superior to the
American manner. Haw.”
“Why, Mr. Cravat T” yawned the fair
Eulalia Stimkins. • -
“BeeanSfr^haw—having *u’ In it
makes all the—haw—difference.”'
Miss Stimkins’ entire seven dimples
showed at once.
“Oh, Mr. Cravat, how perfectly de-
lightful! I had no idea you were so
witty. Really ! insist that you stay for
dinner. I don’t take no for a refusal, i
And I have no doubt,” added the con-
ceited yonng thing, “that our dining
room will appeal to you even more than
our parlor.”
“Just—haw—why, Miss Stimkins, if j
I may—haw—awsk?"
“Because—if you will pardon my ap-
parently faulty grammar—I is in it
twice.”
And after that yonng Cravat had
things all his own way.—Detroit Free

Fallen from a state of refined Inde-
pendence to the position of a “ne’er-
do-weel” through otoi1)dhltfen£e in
liquor, his prosperous but very coarse
neighbors determined among < them-
selves one day, as they saw him com-
ing unsteadily along, to give him n
nasty fall by asking for the loan of
what they knew he never had upon
him—the sum of one shilling, says Lon-
don Tlt-Blts.
“Gentlemen,” said he, straightening
himself into a most dignified and pat-
ronizing attitude, “I keep but one shil-
ling for the purpose of loans. I regret
exceedingly that at the moment It
should happen to be out.” Then, fum-
bling in his inner breast pocket for his
pocketbook and pencil, he remarked as
he made a short notS, “But it has given
me great pleasure to put your names
down for the next turn. Communicate
with me again a little later on. Morn-

Why Buffalo Disappeared.
In German East Africa the giraffes
damage telegraph systems by ruhbing
their long necks against fee wires.
This sort of thing Is not new. When
the first overland telegraph was car*
ried across the American continent to
San Francisco the buffaloes, which
then swarmed in countless herds on
the plains of Kansas and eastern
Colorado, used to rub their shaggy
hides against these poles with such
vigor and zest as to push them down
almost as fast as they were put up.
In order to discourage them the poles
were studded with six-inch iron spikes,
the pointed ends outward. The result,
however, did not come np to expecta-
tions. The buffaloes apparently con-
sidered the spikes an added luxury
and Indulged in a perfect orgy of
scratching. Eventually armed guards
were set to patrol the 800 miles of
track running through the buffalo
country, and In the course of a single
year more than 225,000 animals were
shot ■ ■ »*” • 4

When you have lost the power of in-

leisure frightens you with its empti-

Greater Than Law.
The laws find their root in the cre-
dence of the people. A 2-foot stone
wall guards my fine pears and melons
all summer long from droves of hun-
gry boys, sad poor men and women.
And if one of these people should
question my right and pluck my fruit,
I could set the cumbrous machinery
of the law in motion, and by good luck
of evidence and counsel I might get
my right asserted, and that particular
offender daunted. But If every pas-
senger should make the like attempt,
though the law were perfect, my house
would not be worth living in nor my
fields worth planting. It Is the edu-
cation of these people into ideas and
lawa of property, and their loyalty,
that makes those stones in the low
wall so virtuous.—Emerson.

time to many of hiB friends, that he
was thinking seriously of entering
association work, as a secretary, and
it would be fitting for him to begin
in his own hopoe town. If he accepts
there will be fio doubt of his success.
Mr. Hogue, the general secretary,
{ returned from St. Louis Wednesday
J
j evening, where he attended a confer-
ence of railroad secretaries of the
southwest territory. There were
about forty in attendance. The con-
t
ference was called for the purpose of
considering the relation of railroad
associations to the war situation. Mr.
Knebel, who is the International sec-
retary in charge of this territory,
with headquarters in St. Louis, has
been transferred for the summer, to
the eastern territory, where he will
organize and direct the association
work in the concentration camps. He
has been in the east during the past
month, and reported to the confer-
ence that the men wbo have bepp in
close touch with the situation are of
the opinion that the, war will not end
in less than three years, and that be-
fore the end of 1917 this country will
send a million men to foreign soil,
and that it is quite probable we will
send at least Hwo million within the
next two years.
The Y. M. C. A. of this country is
raising a fund of $3,000,000 with
which to carry on the work this year,
among the soldiers. The association
erects temporary buildings, etc., just
in the rear of battle lines, and as the
troops are brought on; of the trenches
and replaced by fresh troops, the as-
sociation secretaries immediately
provide them with cots, writing ma-
terial, concerts and other entertain-
ments, religious services, and in fact
everything to relieve the terrible
mental strain that they have been un-
der for many hours, and perhaps days.
This is a practical work that is ap-

Too Old at Forty,
hat is a wail that always goes up
roiii
in tiie June American Magazine says
it'could be disregarded if people made
themselves more useful as they grow
older. He writes: «
“For man to be too old at forty is
not natural. Scientists' tell us that
the life periods of man compare with
the life history of the race. *
In most businesses and professions
the period of mature manhood is com-
monly the period of great skill. The
body still retains ite elasticity; pre-
vious training and acquired good
habits count in daily work; experi-
ence now begins to return dividends.
The individual develops common
sense, conservatism and deliberation.
He is less likely to be swayed by the
primitive emotions of younger life.
Well-laid plans mature; returns from
previous investments in time, labor
and money begin to come in.
“But it is daring this period that
the competition of newer workers in
the same field begins to be felt. The
apprentices in the trades, and stu-
dents in the schools begin to' gpt a
foothold in competition with the es-
tablished worker. And—what^^ot
vital importance—the beginner is
willing to work much cheaper than
the experienced man. Thus^ experi-
ence must guard against the under-
cut.

How
agro<^
made Biscuits
■■.
I had tried biscuits
before (when a Kan-
sas farm cook quit)
and failed. But that
is another story.
The other day I
asked my wife to make
sour-milk biscuits.
But she didn’t know
how. (She’s a bride!)
Man-like, I said, 'Til
show you.” I prom-
ised her real biscuits
with a crisp crust.
I took the apron off
the cupboard hook
(Rmpwt tfo. 9) By himself
and started. My wife
looked on. (I knew
what she was hoping.)
The directions said, “ Take
one-third less of Coctolene
than of butter." I did. I
found that Cottolene mixed
in with the flour very quickly.
When the dough was ready,
in my clumsy way, I rolled it,
pan thick and part thin. For
my wife likes her biscuits
thick. I like mine thin with
a lot of crust—and crisp!
The oven was hot. But
I shivered near it for 20 min-
utes—waiting. My reputa-
tion hung on crisp crust.
. 1 am stili the head of the
family. Lucky for me, those
were real biscuits. The
crust was really crisp. The
inside was flaky.
The Cottolene advertising
said, “Cottolene makes light
biscuits with a crisp crust."
It did—and made a reputa-
tion for me in the bargain.
