TEDDY STILL STRENUOUS.
The. following dispatch is going
the rounds of the press:
Narobi, Brittish East Africa, May
1.0. —A bulky bull rhinoceros is the
latest prize wrested from the jungles
by Colonel Roosevelt.
From the ex-president’s camp
near Machakos word was brought
down today that the luck of the
Roosevelt party continues and that
fifteen varieties of game, including
the big rhinoceros,have been bagged
on the last expedition.
The rhinoceros was charging Mr.
Roosevelt when the hunter fired.
The distance was fourteen paces,
and the animal fell dead.
The naturalists of the party are
kept busy preparing the trophies
which Mr. Roosevelt and his son,
Ivermit, are bringing daily. Forty
five skins already have been pre
pared for the Smithsonian institu
tion at Washington.
Men can never stop an argument,
but a woman can break it up any
time with a crying party.

THE LOST PUP.
He was lost!—not a shade of a doubt
of that,
For he never barked at a slinking cat.
But stood in the square where the wind
blew raw
With a drooping ear and a trembling
paw
And a mournful look in his pleading eye
And a plaintive sniff at the passer-by
That begged as plain as tongue could
sue,
“0, mister! please, may I follow you?”
A lorn, wee waif of a tawny brown
Adrift in the roar of a heedless town.
Oh, the saddest of sights in the world
of sin
Is a little lost pup with his tail tucked in!
Well, he won my heart (for I set great
store
On my own red Bute —who is here no
more.)
So I whistled clear, and he tottered up,
And who so glad as that small lost pup?
Now he shares my board and he owns
my bed,
And he fairly shouts when he hears my
tread.
When we rove the woods for a league
about
He’s full of pranks as a school let out;
For he romps and frisks like a three
months’ colt,
And he runs me down like a thunderbolt.
Oh, the blithest of sights in the world
so fair
Is a gay little pup with his tail in air!

GOT THEM MIXED.'
In small country newspaper of
fices, where .the e >py goes from the
editor to the compositor, then, after
printing, directly to the subscribers,
the need of a proofreader is often
felt. In this connection William
Allen White, the Kansas newspaper
man, tells of an amusing break
made by a boy in the office of such
a newspaper in that State. In
“making up” the forms the boy
got the galleys mixed, with the fol
lowing result:
The first part of the obituary of
an impecunious citizen had been
dumped in the forms, and the next
handful of type came from a galley
in which was a description of a tire.
The subscribers were greatly startle and
when tn* y came to the paragraph
which read thus:
•“The pallbearers lowered the
body to the grave. It was con
signed
to the flames. There were few
if any regrets, for tlrcf**old
wreck had been an eyesore to the
town for years. Of course, there
was individual loss, but that was
fully covered by insurance.”
“DON’T THINK OF MOTHER”
Herb Cavaness contributes this
wortnwhile piece:
“While planning your pleasant
vacation times for the summer, of
of course, it isn’t necessary to take
mother into consideration. Father’s
nerves need a rest and John and
Bill and Mary just must go to the
mountains or lakes for their health
or make that visit to Ohio or Cal
ifornia. Mother never gets tired
Her nerves never need the tonic of
freedom from worry or mountain
breezes. She has no dear friends
whom she cares about visiting. Her
greatest pleasure is to sew and darn
and bake and iron and work, help
ing the rest get ready so they can
have a good time. Be sure you have
a vacation this year. You will die
if you don’t get it, but don t
worry about mother. She will just
keep slaving away. She don’t se* m
to know any better. And then ;
some day she won't be able to get j
ui> in the morning. The next bay j
the kindly neighbors-will begin to
send in flowers, and the dly after
as the clods so lut-hly on the eofiin
lid, you will be wondering why
mother broke down so soon, when
she seemed to have such a good
constitution and never complained
of being tired or needing a rest.”
It is said while Bob Daniel was
dowiiyon a visit from White county
last week that he whipped his moth
jer-in-law who lives near Dahlonega.
