Except on One Point A shop assistant was showing some clocks to an Irishman, who wanted to present one to his wife on the anniver sary of their marriage, and lie had ex hausted his entire stock except some cuckoo clocks lying on a shelf. The Colt asked to see them, and the as sistant took them down, thinking that at last lie would make a sale. After telling Pat the price, the latter asked if they struck the hours. Instead of an swering directly, the assistant wound the timepiece up and set the hands at a few minutes to 12. As the little door opened Patrick’s eyes bulged with interest, but when the chirping ended he plainly showed his disapproval. The man behind the coun ter. not to be daunted, said: "Well, how do you like it?" Pat thought for a moment, and then replied, earnestly: "Faith, an’ it’s all right except on one point.

A ver.v marked symptom is the desire to visit a photographer. The girl who is in love always wants to have her pic ture taken. Rest Beloved may not nave expressed any yearning for a picture, hut the girl is sure that this is due to his shyness; that he Jongs to have one on his dress iing case to be his last vision at night land his first in morning, she never doubts. There are two photograph albums at the home of Lysander John Appleton; the one in his den containing pictures of their poor kin. and the one in the parlor holding the photographs of rela tives who are distinguished. Os the members of the family, Daysey Mayme visits the photographer’s often est. going regularly" with every new" at tack of love. “I will have my picture taken,” she said one day last week, "for I am in love up to my eyebrows and I know HE wants one.” So she had her picture taken and showed it to HIM next time he called. Now, Best Beloved has convinced Daysey Mayme that he loves every hair on her head (though it would denoj.- infinitely greater affection if he loved every hair in her top bureau drawer), and naturally he was compelled to ask for a picture, though his dressing case is covered witht girls' pictures now. “Oh, I couldn't think of such a thing." sdid Daysey Mayme; “it wouldn’t be proper.” . But He Coaxed Again. A man who has as manv admirers as a good-looking clerk at a soda fountain must have in order to keep his job isn’t, accustomed to refusals. The next time he called lie coaxed again. "I haven’t one to spare,” said Daysey" Mayme. "They were taken for my dear relatives, and I have just enough to go ’round." Best Beloved didn't want one partic ularly. His landlady had frequently threatened if he brought another girl’s picture to be moved when she dusted she would raise his board. But he was determined to have one. now it had been refused him, and coax ed so steadily the next time he called that Daysey Mayme, with great reluc tance. gave him one. And the next day a picture appeared on his dresser of a girl wearing just four pounds of hair, an,] her dress cut so low in front that if her Dear Relatives had seen it they would have screamed. For four days it occupied the center of the dresser, then it was hidden be hind the picture of a. girl who calls at the soda fountain three times every r morning and always gets a 25-cent drink. For Daysey Mayme has a. rival; Every girl who loves a good-looking clerk at soda fountain lias many rivals, or the man couldn't hold his job. Many Corners in His Heart, 4 Best Beloved has told so many girls lie has a corner of his heart set apart for them that that organ must resemble a hornet's nest. Woe and alas, and ah me. but there is sorrow ahead for Daysey Mayme! W hen a girl discovers her sweetheart is False, the world is Dark, Indeed. “On one occasion.” said Daysey May me to her Aunt Maria, to whom she pours out her heart as regularly as it fills up, I felt that I could not go on living. While I sat wrapped in gloom, wondering what there was in life worth going on for. I got a whiff of the choco late pie mother was making. “It gave me an inspiration. There was the pie ahead to cheer me till din ner time. And after dinner I put off tb"" determination to die of grief till nfter breakfast next morning because of the straw-berries and cream. Then there was a now dress. I would live I decided, till that was made. “Then I wanted to attend the election of officers in the Art of Making Home .
