Scrap Book
Burleson and His Fence.
When Postmaster General Burleson
was a member of the house he rushed
into his committee room one day and
announced that he had at last obtained
the iron fence around the old Penn
sylvania station in Washington.
A cub reporter who happened to be
present wrote a story about the fence
and after stating the facts expressed
the opinion that it would soon adorn
one of the public parks in Burleson's
district in Texas.
The Texas correspondents wired the
story to their papers, and soon Burle
son was deluged with telegrams.
Encountering the cub reporter. Bun
ieson angrily demanded to know what
he had written about the fence.
"What's the matter?" innocent!
aBked the reporter.
"What's the matter?" shouted Bur
leson. "I paid $125 for that fence at
public 'auction: I paid $100 to have it
painted black and have the tops gild
ed: paid $75 freight on it to my
home in Austin. Tex., where it was
to be placed on my home grounds.
What's the matter? Why, now I've
got to give the consarned thing away!"

The Little Things of Life.
Around the little things oC life
A world of storm and sunshine lies, "
Tet those too busy seldom see
The tired look in other eyes.
Around the little things- of life
A wealth of loving mem'ries center,
And Joys undreamt of by the world
The humblest dwelling places enter.
Around the' little things. of life.
Connected by a thread so slender-
Are long lost smiles and bygone tears
Which helped to make our hearts mere
tender. "
Alas, how many things In life
Are those of which we cannot boast!
Actions and words we think our best
How poor and weak they are at most!
More full of love. oh. may they be.
Less full of self as in the past!
Help us. dear Lord, to offer thee
More perfect "little things" at last
M. Wayman.
Took Him at H's Word.
The late King Edward, who so high
ly appreciated wit. even when, as
sometimes happened, the joke went
against himself, was once very neatly
"scored off" by a lady whom later he
deservedly esteemed for her many
good works. She had just been pre
sented to him and was somewhat nerv
ous. To put her at her ease his maj
esty said. "Oh. Miss . I want to
have a long chat with you, but if i
should unfortunately bore you pray
tell me so." The king, who was an
adroit cross examiner, wished to as
certain the young lady's age, which he
had no intention of divulging. "Yon
have already said you were born al
," said the monarch. "May 1 asfc
in what year?" "You bore me, sir!'
was the smiling reply, and his majesty
took the checkmate in the greatest
eood humor.
Giddy Girl. - N
In Mr. Thorold's "Life of Henry La
bouchere" this story is quoted: The
Grand Duchess of Tuscany had a ven
erable maid of honor about seventy
years of age. She had piercing black
eyes and looked like an old post chaise
painted up and with new lamps. "How
old do you think I am?" she once ask
ed me with a simpering smile that
caused my blood to ran cold. 1 hesi
tated and then' said, "Twenty." "Flat
terer," she replied, tapping me with
her fan. "I am twenty-five."
The Busy Man's Romance.
He was a very busy man. and she
was a very pretty girl. She Insisted
upon having a love letter every day.
She got it
"You write the loveliest letters,
dear!" she said. "And when you are
so very, vejy busy all the time I think
it is splendid of you to think of me!"
"I don't forget yoL" he replied. "My
secretary has instructions to write you
a letter for me to sign every morning.
He is a most efficient and capable
young man."
"And you don't know how greatly
I appreciate the flowers you send me
every week."
"I'm glad you get them. I told my
secretary to make a memo, to send
you some every Saturday."
"How systematic! And it is so
thoughtful of you to think of the plays
I like best and the books 1 prefer."
"It's a pleasure to know you are
pleased. My secretary gets the tick
ets and picks out the books. He Is a
very capable fellow."
Two months later .the very busy
man said:
"Hang him! 1 don't mind sp much
his eloping with my fiancee, but how
in thunder can I break in another sec-
retary?"

Laughter and Tears.
One of London's bright young jour
nalists who went to interview Mme.
Sarah Bernhardt recently tried to con
verse with the great actress in her
own language. His French was su
bad, however, that at last, in despair
madame switched the conversation
into English.
She speaks English fairly well, but
after a minute or two she made a bad
blunder, and the journalist was un
able to restrain a smile.
"Why do yon laugh?" madame asked
him.
"I'm awfully sorry," he apologized:
"but as a matter of fact your Eng?
lish made me laugh a little;"
"Mon Dien," gasped madame; "my
English made you laugh a little! But
your French made me weep a lot!"
How to be Certain of
Curing Constipation
Prejudice is a hard thing to overcome,
out where health is at stake and the
iplnion of thousands of reliable people
liners from yours, prejudice then be
:omes your menace and you ought to
.ay it aside. This is said in the inter
jst of people suffering from chronic
:onstipation, and it is worthy of their
attention.
In the opinion of legions of reliable
constipation imaginable can be cured
by a brief use of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin. You may not have heard of It
before, but do not doubt its merits on
that account, or because It has not been
blatantly advertised. It has sold very
successfully on word of mouth recom
mendation. Parents are giving It to
their children today who were given It
by their parents, and it has been truth
fully said that more druggists use it
personally In their families than any
other laxative.
