So Pa handed me the r °"L. 2. 1 sang it the best I cud for t 7" kind of song it was. This was the nalrn of the song: N |X NIX, NIX ON POLYTICKS. The drawing room was crowded in a city far away, It was a politishun’s hoam, so bril yunt and so gay. Hi wife was cooking dinner wen a guest cairn through the door sed Do you think William Taft will get jest one term inoar? ght . hit him with a turnip on his bald and shiny pate sumthing like the following was the word that she did state: Chorus: Six. Nix, Nix on Polyticks. in til'd of Teddy Roosevelt & his iittel Bull Moose tricks. I wuddent '-are if Taft grew Daft & Wilson crossed the Styx. \i\ Nix, Nix on Polyticks. Well, -ed Pa, what do you think of that for a song? I- dident seem to impi< ss me favor <ed Ma. It is not true, not true t „ iif<- & not true to wimmen, sed Ma. bid you ewer see me, for instens, throwing a turnip at a man’s bald hed? hi the first place, I never cooked a turnip & wuddent have one in my hand. & in the second ptace I cuddent throw strate enuff to hit anybody in the lied unless I aimed at his feet. p.i got kind of mad . tjien. Wife, deer, sed Pa. is thare anything that I ewer did that you liked? 1 was almost sure that this one time you vial Ilk" tills song. I spent a lot. of time on it. 1 thought the chorus was kind of catchy. You poor old boy, sed Ma; 1 dident think that you was going to cry so hard, or anything like that. If it will malk you feel any bi tter to tell you that I think the song is good. I w ill saj that the song is good. I only thought that you wanted my real opin yun. Mn sod. * You know as well as I do that poly tlcks is everything rite now. .<• that it is always a important part’of American life. Why doant you rite a song about the moonlite on the lake, or sumthing of that kind. Everybody knows that thare is moonlite on the lake when thare is a lake & a nite that the moon is out. I guess you better lay off on song writing, sed Ma. & try suintbing else. I was reading the other day about a man that got ten thousand dollars tor curing a horse that beelonged to a rich man. Why doant you try beeing a veterinary surgeon insted of a poet. Beeing a what? sed Pa. Oh, anything, sed Ma. Try beeing a shipping clerk. But doant be a song riter. So then Pa toar up his song as eesy as he used to tear up Broadway.

Pretty Lady reading from a fashion bcok trying to get a little brain picture of what she's going to have to wear THIS winter. . . “It is hard to say just WHAT Milady will wear— but we know it will be quite simple! There will he no plain skirts—no plaited skirts—no full skirts—and no tight skirts. You see? There will be pepiums.igodets, tunics and panniers. And PLASTRONS? Ah! ah! Sleeves are—hesitant. The waist line is a —blur. You will be, Milady, quite safe, if you get yours either under your arms or below your knees. There will be fur everywhere it can get aboard. Lace as deep as possible at throat and sleeves —probably touching Milady's dimpled knees before the spring. As far as lace goes—look just as much like a baby’s bassinet as possible. If she will picture in her mind this charming winter mode Milady will see how inexpensive—and how quite, quite SIMPLE it is.” Up against it, as usual! broadwaylones Pg t>§ Based on George M. Cohen's Play Now Running In New York. (Copyright, 1912, by George M. Cohan.) TODAY'S INSTALLMENT. Mrs. Gerard exclaimed at this and Broadway hastened to add: "I mean she said 'yes'—Beatrice said 'yes.' ” Wallace looked from one to another, more mystified than ever, when the tit tering voice of the woman broke in: "We're going to spend our hone.'moon in Spain.” "Yes. dear, sunny Spain," rhapsodized Broadway. "I'm going out this afternoon to buy a sombrero and a pair of casta nets” —he took a few dance steps and hummed an air from “Carmen.” "Well, aren't you going to congratulate me?” "Now, see here, Jackson, if you’re fool ing me, 1 want to know,” returned Wal lace roughly. Mrs. Gerard shook from head to foot in senile anger. dThere he goes again. Jackson, ” she snapped. "I’m not going to stay here and be Insulted in such a manner -I—” Broadway interposed. He assured Mrs. Gerard that in a few moments alone with Wallace he could convince him that there was no joke. They didn't want Wallace to repeat to all their friends in town that the engagement was a farce. If she would go out in her car for a half hour and return everything would be smoothed away. She consented. "Bye-bye. dearie," she lisped. "Au revolt, sweetheart,” returned Broadway, affectionately. "Don't listen to that bad. naughty man, dearie." "No, him won't, little Beatrice. Him make bad man listen to him." She kissed him fondly. With "Oh, you dear boy," ano with one glance of scorn and fury for Wallace, she was gone. "BROADWAY'S" SECRET. In considerable more bewilderment than anger, Wallace sat in his chair, staring before him for a moment after the widow Gerard had left. Jackson walked slowly to his friend's chair, laid one hand quietly on its back and then looked at Wallace intently. "Say, are you going crazy!" roared IS allace. Broadway ignored the query. "Now. in the first place.' he com menced deliberately. "I want you to thoroughly understand that I'm positive ly serious about the whole affair and that nothing tha t you can say will change my plane." "Well!” "Mrs. Gerard and I are going to be mar ried and it s going to happen very short ly. So whether you like the Idea or not. if you care to retain my friendship, you must get used to it the same as I have to do." “I'm listening' Broadway sighed "1 know several girls,' he went on, "who will cry very bitterly, and a lot of fellows who wdll laugh very heartily, but the fact remains that the lady you just saw leave the room « Io become Mrs Jackson Jones, so once and for 411 get it out of your hew 1 that it'« a Joke." "Do you realize what people will say and think?” Jatkson brought his ist down into the palm of his band, .-’a d he: "I’ve thrashed It out with myself trom every angle I know what ii:-y'll and I know *ia' that'll think.' ’ Well «ji , w t|) thin’ “The natural thobght will he that I’m marrying her for her money.” His friend laughed shortly. "They know better than that. Every body's aware of the fact that you’ve got all the money you need." It was Broadway’s turn to laugh. "I to you think so?” he asked. Rankin entered with a telegram which Jones absently put in his pocket as he Informed the retiring butler that he didn’t wish to be disturbed for a few moments. Then, when they were again alone, he paced back and forth for a moment. Turning sharply he said: "Bob, I'm going to le. you in on a little, secret- my secret. No one else in the world know.-. I wouldn’t tell you if it weren’t for the fact that we've been so close and such good pals for the last few years, but remember it's Masonic." "Certainly.” "I'm broke," said Broadway, all pre tense at happiness gone from his face. "You're what?” "Broke—dead broke." ' "Say, is this another of" your jokes? You’re rich in them today." "It’s no joke to be broke, Bob; but it's even worse than that with me. Bob; I’m in debt.” , "What!" "I owe about fifiy thousand dollars." “Well, what have you done w Ith all of your money?” • "Put it back in circulation, where it came ffom.” WHERE IT WENT. “Wall street?" suggested Wallace. “No, Broadway.” "Investments gone wrong?” "I never invested any. All 1 ever did was to spend it.” Wallace's jaw dropped. Truly this was a day of surprises to him. "But you couldn't spend the money you had,” he said, as though his business like mind filtered the idea of the Impos sibility of expending legitimately more than a fixed sum. Broadway smiled. His tone was al most sprightly as he answered: "I didn't have any trouble in getting rid of it. Everybody seemed very glad to get it. and also 1 owe tailor bills, flower bills, restaurant bills, jewelry bills, boot bills I've got a flock of bills in my desk that would make Rockefeller coinplain e bout the high cost of living and 1 . an’t pay them because I’m broke." "Why. you always gave me to ,’..:er stand that you were a millionaire? ex claimed Bob. Jackson grinned sheeuishlj. "Well, I lied a little," aid he.

I didn't come Into it until I was twenty one—about $75,000 In cash, some real es tate and a half interest in a chewing gum factory. The first thing 1 did was to get rid of the real estate and sell out my in terest in the gum factory. I wanted cash. Hadn't any use for anything else. My father’s partner, his brother (my uncle, old Andrew Jones), bought me out and cheated me. too. A measly hundred thousand, that's all 1 got. Since then I understand he's made a dozen fortunes with the darned old gum. I hear the Gum Trust offered him a million dollars for the plant last year.

Why, from the time I was sixteen years old to the day I left that town everybody In Jonesville called me Broadway.

No. 44 Edgewood Avenue No. 10 Equitable Building. §3 By Bertrand Babcock The two young men sat in silence for a time. Wallace was trying to find some way out for Broadway, and the latter was immersed in mournful reflec tions. Yet such is the strange mixture of pride and regret in the career ami temperament of the average spendthrift that Broadway could not have been said to be entirely unhappy. He broke the si lence with a laugh. "When 1 go into a restaurant, the waiters come to blows to see who’ll get me. If I go tn to get shaved, you * think some one had yelled ‘Fire’.’ the way the barbers dash for the chairs. Oh, I’ve been the bright-eyed »aby boy around this town, all right. It’s cost me a Quarter of a million, but I’ve had a won derful time." "How long have, you been broke'.”’ asked Wallace. "About six months. My credit carried me on.

Daysey mayme appleton looks so artificial from the crown of her golden head to the tips of her high-heeled shoes she gives the impression that if some one punch ed her in the belt she would squeak “Ma-ma,” just like a French doll. She wears a collar so high in the back and so low in the front it looks as If her halo had slipped down, and she waves her hands when she talks just, like a switchman. At first glance one might think Day sey Mayme superficial. But she is not —she is temperamental! As a child she didn’t keep up with the class in the public school, and her mother sent her to a private school. ' The teacher," explained her mother, "didn’t understand her. She is SO tem peramental.” The word explains so many things! Ail mothers of backward children use it.
