HAN HE WAS LOOKING FOR M* Cutlets Could Give Steady Job to Applicant With 8uch Qual ification. Hr. Underdone Cutleta, proprietor the Speedy cafe, was notoriously rd-faearted. The most weeping How who ever graced a melodrama couldn't have wept a slice of stale breed out of his rcastanrant without the price. So, when a palo and timor ous bum approached the desk and made a faltering appeal. It was “I 1 surprise to the lunch fiends to hear a curt "Nothing doing. Beat It." “I’m not a beggar,” retorted the hungry man Tm willing to scrub floors or wash dishes. I’m just out of prison and nobody will give me work. I’m starring." The proprietor portrayed a faint Interest "What were you In tor?" he asked idly. "I’ll tell you the truth," explained the ex-convict “I was a kind of a counterfeiter. I used to take a $100 bill and split It In two with a razor. Then, I’d paste the halves together, so I’d have two cen turies, If the sucker didn’t look on both sides. It took ’em five years to catch me." Mr. Cutlets beckoned the ex-prisoner behind the bar. “Order what you like on the house,” he whis pered. "I’ve got a steady Job for you.

Anatole France once agreed to writ# an essay on Moliere. He repeatedlj broke his promise to his publisher, who finally threatened him with legal proceedings unless a certain numbet of pages were delivered within a spo rifled time. France hurried off to hi» lawyer, who was none other than Ray mond Poincare, now president. M Poincare heard his story and said that the author would better comply with the publisher’s demand. “It’s impossit ble,” said France. "But you’re a go nius,” was the reply. "Genius Is la finite patience. I can’t possibly do U in the time,” said France. "Nevertho less begin,” replied the advocate, “and we'll see.” So Poincare dictated thg first sentence, “Moliere is a Parisian," and added, “Go on from there.” Franc# was complacent, perhaps Inspired bj the suggestion of the words, and the brilliant piece of criticism was easily done In time.

It is now fashionable to be married in May—the long tabooed month. Some very charming little summer evening frocks were Included in the trous leau of Miss Hyldagard Jurgerisen, married last week to Montalgn La Mon ;ague. One of those pretty creations is pictured here. There ore two tunics; >ne of dotted net and the other of shrimp pink satin, the net tunic being bor iered with vankyde points of the pink satin, frilled with lace. The skirt, of white satin, is looped up with shrimp pink bows. The tucker bodice of white let Is laid over flesh colored tulle and upon it rises a corselet of the pink satin centered bv a medallion of dotted net. The "life story of Albert Palzer, promi nent erstwhile fighter, has Its thrills The early chapters dealing with the first successes of an ambitious youth, teem with heart Interest. And there are parts of It that any really competent book reviewer would call tense and “vital” and “full of red corpuscles.’' But alas! this little yarn doesn't end happily, reader, and If you are ad dicted to the happily-ever-after type ol finis do not pursue these words further The story of the life and battles of A1 Palzer ends with a sob. When A1 Palzer first set out to re trieve the heavyweight bay leaves that they might repose once more upon the lily white brow of an Anglo-Saxon he met with some little success. He waa not exactly hailed with acclaim by both hemispheres, but none the less he made an agreeable impression upon the many who were In eager search of a “hope.” And the title “white hope” was tendered film with kindly expres sions because he was large of muscle and broad of shoulders and resembled in several aspects a freight car when viewed from the rear. The freight car, of course. And also labelling large per sons “white hope” was being done quite a bit at the time. Palzer was proud of the honor and boro his laurels meekly up till the time he met Buther Mc Carty. That was too bad about Palzer fight ing McCarty. Someone should have seen to It that A1 was better provided with some means of defending himself. McCarty mistreated Palzer terribly, causing numerous swellings as well as a contusion on the nose. The fight seemed to take all the spirit out of Pal zer and he has never been quite the same since. Feeling poorly after the encountei with McCarty, Palzer blew himself t< a little trip to Europe, thinking the salt air to be had both to and fro would throw a little pep into him. Languish ing about Paree was also part of Al’s plan to recover his vigor and vim and he returned a little latter to this coun try feeling pretty chipper. In fact, A1 thought he would be able to knock a few of those cheap "hopes” off their chairs. With this in mind he entered the ring with Gunboat Smith. Right there was where Palzer made another mistake. He should never have tried to fight Gunboat Smith. But he did and the result was that he under went a trouncing that made the Mc Carty affair seem like the gentle min lsterings of a trained nurse1. If Palzer had a contusion on his nose after Mc Carty finished with him, he had 40 when Smith was all through. He also lost several valuable gold fillings. Since the Smith episode A1 has made several efforts to regain the fight fans' good graces, but each succeeding one was sadder. He didn’t exactly lose heart, but he lost lots of prestige. He met a California street car motormnn named Charlie Miller, and Charlie didn’t even gong his gong when he ran over Palzer on the high speed. As a last hope Palzer went to Pittsburgh,, i where he signed to become engaged in : a brawl with Dan Dally of New Chstle. Dally poked Palzer on the jaw con stantly, and Palzer’s jaw was weak. The reader was told that this storv wouldn’t end happily. That Daily fracas really wasn't necessary. Pal zer had already reached the last chap ter of that popular seller, ‘‘The Rise and Fall of a White Hope.” Tho Cause of the Conflict. J. Laurence Laughlln In Atlantic.

This is not a facetious matter, but no which is the outcome of phrenologi st examination, on the "before and fter” principle, of the heads of men 'ho stir the public. As a matter of act, It is contended that while a man tops growing, generally speaking, at he age of 25, his head, particularly ’ he Is a thinker, continues to grow nd Increase In size, often after lie Is 8 years of age. Indeed, experts say hat a man's brain does not become ully developed until he is 40 or 50 eass of age, and a well-known London hrenologlst, who has measured the ends of many prominent people from Ime to time, has discovered by means Tha Sweat Long Days. The sweet, long days, when the morning breaks Over the mountains in rose and gold. When the shadows linger on vale and lakes, And the afterglow tints fields and wold. The summer days when the pasture land Lies dappled with daisies beneath the su II, When the waves wash up on the pebbly strand, And the little ripples leap and run. The sweet, long days when the children play Merry and sweet as the day Is long. Driving the cows and tossing the hay And singing many a snatch of song. When mother is busy from morn till eve. And father Is earning the children'# bread: In every task when a prayer they weave For blessings to rest on each little? head. The sweet long days when, though trouble come, We bear the trouble In trustful cheer For ever In God Is our constant home, A refuge and shelter from grief and fear The sweet long days which our father sends, Foretaste and pattern of days to be In the time when the measure by days shall end, On the fadeless shore of the crystal sea, —Margaret K.

LANGFORD POUNDS UP ANOTHER WHITE HOPE Taft, Cal.—Special: Sam Langford, oi Boston, the negro heavyweight, demonstrated conclusively here yes terday that Jack Lester, of Cleeium, Wash., had no right to enlist in the army of white hopes. The two men clashed in a boxing bout scheduled for 20 rounds. Lester was knocked down for the count of seven in the second round. In the third he landed his only blow of the whole fight—a glancing swing to the mouth that drew blood, but did no damage. In the fourth he was knocked down four times and was saved from being knocked out by the bell. When the gong rang for the fifth he was stiH. su groggy that he could or would not arise from his chair and the referee gave the fight to Langford.
