Naturally enough, this youngster re
ceived so many joking references
.about his name from his fellow em

dissatisfied with it. So when he ap
plied for a place under another em
ployer in the building he evidently
decided to bestow a new name upon
himself. When the man to whom ho
applied asked him his name the boy
replied:
“Robert Recapitulation.”
“That’s an odd name,” said the man
after having the lad repeat it several
times.
The boy looked surprised. "Haven’t
you heard of General Recapitulation?"
asked he.
"No."

Psssfng of School Bags.
A notable fact in connection with
the holiday offerings of presents
adapted to children was that school
bags were conspicuous by their ab
sence this season. The manager of
a school supply section of the local de
partment store explained the situa
tion in this manner:
"Junior size suit cases have super
seded the old-time school bags to
such an extents that but compartively
few manufacturers nowadays carry
stock of the latter. Girl’s wont have
them because bags are no longer con
sidered fashionable, and boys won’t
stand for them for the reason that to
school bags is popularly regarded
as a ‘sissy’ habit. The miniature
suit case carries with It a distinctive

Soon after the negro’s escape, a re

Perry’s Railroad.
I The town of Perry, Fla., which did
not have any railroads at all several
years ago, will soon have five. The
South Georgia and West Coast Ry.,
the Live Oak, Perry and Gulf Ry.,
and the Florida Ry., formerly the Su-
wanee L San Pedro, are already op
erating trains to Perry. The Atlantic
Coast Line is building from Newber
ry to Perry, a distance of 80 miles. It
has tho road completed for 15 miles
and graded all of the distance of 80
miles. The Seaboard Air Line is al
so building from Tallahassee* to Per

Down In Izzard county, darkest Ar
kansas, they do things up brown, says
Ben Murdock. An editor called a
member of the legislature a “lop-ear
ed liar,” and tho member went into
the office to lick tho editor. After
a minute’s conversation the editor
threw the "lop-eared liar” out of tho
window on the shedroof, which was
rotten, and the legislature man fell
through to the porch below, light
ing on a sleeping dog. The dog rose up
and bit the man on the arm, where
upon the "lop-eared liar” kicked tho
dog. At this moment the owner of
the dog hearing s commotion, rushed
around the corner very mad. It is not
safe to kick an Izzard dog, so the "lop-
eared liar” was thrown off the porch
into a convenient horse trough.
About this time the member of the
legislature concluded that he was a
lop-eared idiot and went home—Kan
