Too Much Knowledge for
One Mind
Tom Wyatt was a Mississippi
planter, one of the most’ generous and
hospitable of a breed of men re
nowned for their hospitality and their
generosity. His bachelor home, “Bel
mont,” in Holmes county, was a haven
of refuge for any down-and-outer. A
stranger might come when he pleased
and stay as long as he pleased.
One summer a certain brilliant and
wellborn but dissipated young lawyer
was Wyatt’s guest. In periods of
. repentance and temporary abstinence
this gentleman spent his spare hours
J poring over the Scriptures.
Wyatt, who was an outdoor man
. and no great shakes of a reader, said
[ to him:
“Jim, you must have read mighty
1 near half way through the Good Book
; by this time, haven’t you?”
‘‘Why, Tom,” said the visitor, ‘‘l’ve
read it all the way through, not once
: but several times.”
‘‘You mean from covei to cover,
without skipping a word?”
! “Yes sir, from cover to cover.”
Wyatt slowly absorbed this remark
able statement. After a long pause
he made answer:
“Jim,” he said, “I’m reminded of a
remark I once heard made by ah old
fellow down in the Delta. He said
that when any man told him he knew
nil the multiplication table he must
de a d —n liar!”
Scarcely a Lucrative Calling
A group of wealthy southerners,
Virginians and Kentuckians mostly,
were on a train returning from a meet
ing of the National Fox-Hunting
association. Naturally the talk dealt
largely with the sport of which they
were devotees. A lank Vermonter,
who apparently had never done much
traveling away from his native state,
was an interested auditor of the con
versation.
Presently, when the company in the
smoking-compartment had thinned
out, he turned to one of the party
who had stayed on. He wanted to
know how many horses the southerner
kept for fox-hunting purposes and
how large a pack of hounds he main
tained and about how many foxes on
an average he killed in the course of
a season.
The southerner told him. In silence
for a minute or two the Vermonter
mulled the disclosures over In his
mind.
Then he said:
“Wall, with fodder fetchin’ such
high prices, and with dog-meat for
hounds a-costin’ what it must cost
you, and with fox pelts as cheap as
they are in the open market, and
takin' one thing with another, I don’t
see how you kin expect to clear much
money out of the fox-huntin’ business
la the course of a year.”
A Peacemaker Who Blessed
Himself
The peacemaker is bfessed. Some
times lie is careful as well. As wit
ness this instance which was told to
me by an eyewitness. At least he
said he was an eyewitness.
The proprietor of a drug store in
a small Indiana town was issuing
from the front door of his place
when a small boy came tearing ’round
the corner at top gait with his head
down and butted squarely into him.
“Hey, kid!” demanded the drug
gist. “What’s the matter?”
“I’m tryin’ to keep two boys from
gittin’ into a fight,” panted the
youngster.
“Who are the boys?” asked the
, druggist.
“I’m one of ’em.”
The Full of the Honeymoon
In Chicago a vaudeville comedian
married a lady who was likewise con
nected with the profession. Immedi
ately after the ceremony he left his
bride in her room and went to the
nearest blind tiger where, meeting a
number of very congenial friends, he
proceeded to celebrate the recent
event fittingly. Several happy hours
passed.
Toward dusk the bridegroom went
to the telephone and called up his
hotel end asked to be connected with
his room. His new wife answered.
In a slightly husky voice he said:
“Is that you, friend wife? Well,
this is friend husband. I just made a
date for dinner. How’re tilings break
ing fa- you?”
God Save the King’s English!
According to a reliable Canadian
authority a London firm received
from a merchant in Porto Rico a let
ter which, properly framed, now
hangs on the walls of the home of
fice —proof in denial of the ancient
libel that the English don’* know a
joke when they see it.
The letter read as follows:

u —While he knew
that constipation was the cause of
nearly all headaches, biliousness, sal
low skin, indigestion and stomach
misery, he did not believe that a
sickening “purge” or “physic’’ every'
little while was necessary.
In Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin he
discovered a laxative which regulates
the bowels. A single dose will es
tablish natural, healthy bowel move
ment for weeks at a time, even for
those chronically constipated. Dr.
Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin not only
causes a gentle, easy bowel movement
but, best of all, it is often months be

so pleasant that even a cross, feverish,
