Little Bobbie’s
Pa
By WILLIAM F KIRK.
I HAVE jest rote a song, wife, sed Pa,
that I think yon wud like t<> hear.
T wud like to hear it all rite if
you will let Bobbie sing it, sed .Ma.
I am afrade that you wuddent be abel
to do so fine a song justice.
Well, sed Pa, then Bobbie can sing
it. I knew that he wanted to sing it
tltgself. but what Ma sed about It hee-
Inga fine song made him feel kind of
good after all. So Pa handed me the
song &• 1 sang it the best I cud for
the kind of song it was. This was the
naitn of the song:
NIX, NIX. NIX ON POLYTICKS.
The drawing room was crowded in a
city far away.
It was a polltlshun's hoam. so brll
yunt and so gay.
His wife was cooking dinner wen a
guest cairn through the door
& sed Do you think William Taft will
get jest one term moar?
She hit him w ith a turnip on his bald
and shiny pate
& sumthing like the following was the
word that she did state.
Chorus:
Nix. Nix, Nix on Polytlcks,
I’m tired of Teddy Roosevelt & bls
j llttel Bull .Moose tricks.
I wuddent care If Taft grew Daft &
Wilson crossed the Styx.
Nix, Nix. Nix on Polyticks.
Well, sed Pa. what do you think of
that for a song?
It dldent seem to impress me favor
able, sed Ma. It is not true, not true
to life A- not true to wimtnen, sed Ma.
Did you ewer see me, fpr instens,
throwing a turnip at a man's bald
bed? In the first place, 1 never cooked
s turnip & wuddent have one in my
hand, A in the second place 1 cuddent
throw strate ennff to hit anybody in
the heel unless I aimed at his feet.
Pa got kind of mad then. Wife,
deer, sod Pa. is thare anything that
I ewer did that you liked ’ I was
almost sure that this one time you
wud like this song. I spent it lot of
time on it. I thought the chorus was
kind of catchy.
You poor old boy. sed Ma; I dident
think that you wits going to ery so
hard, or anything like that. If it will
malk you feel unj better to tell you
that 1 think the song Ih good, I will
say that the song is good. I only
thought that you wanted my real opln
yun, Ma sed.
You'know as w ell as 1 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 moonllte on the lake, or sumthing
of that kind. Everybody knows that
thare is moonllte on the lake when
thare is a lake A a nite that the moon
is out.
I guess you better lay off on song
writing, sed Ma. A try sunithing else.
1 was reading the other day about a
man that got ten thousand dollars for
curing a 'horse that beelonged to a
rich man. Why doant you try beeing a
veterinary surgeon lusted of a poet.
Beeing a what'' sed I’a.
Oh. anything, sed Mu. Try beeing a
shipping clerk. But doant be a song
rlter.
So then Pa tour up his song as cesy
as he used to tear up Broadway
LIQUID MEASURE.
It was the time of the singing lesson
at the local council school, a-.d the.
teacher wits explaining to the young
hopefuls that If a 'T'eble,'' an "alto, a
•’tenor" an,| a “bus*" sang together,
their united efforts would constitute a
< uartet.
t here seemed no trouble about that.
j ml the teacher thought the class was
getting on very nicely,
"Now, Jimmy, leave off pinching your
brother’s leg and listen to me," said she.
"If a bass and i» tenor sang together,
what would you call that?"
. Jimmy was the son of the local milk
man. und a blight lad withal. His tti.-

“Please, miss,” said he. "that would
be a ’pintet.' "

Pretty Lady reading from a fashion book 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 be no plain skirts—no plaited skirts—no full skirts—and no tight skirts. You see? 'There will be peplums,jgodets, tunics and panniers. And
PLASTRONS? Ah! ah! Sleeves are—hesitant. The waist line is a— blur. You will he, 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!

TODAY’S INSTALLMENT.
Mrs lirranl exclaimed nt thin ami
Broadway fastened to add:
• | mean she said ‘yen’ Beatrice said
‘yea.’ "
Wallace looked from one to another,
more mystified than ever, whim the tit
tering voice of the woman broke in:
"We’re going to spend our honeymoon
in Kpaim’’
'Wes, 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 ami
bummed an air from •’’Carmen.”
"Well, aren't you going to congratulate
me?”
"Now. sec here. Jackson, if you're fool
ing me. I want to know," returned Wal
lace roughly.
Mrs. Gerard shook from head to foot In
senile anger
"There be goes again. Jackson.” she
snapped "I'm not going to stay here and
bo Insulted In such a manner I ”
Broadway Interposed. He assured Mrs
Gerard that In a few moments alone with
Wallace be could convince him that there
was no Joke They didn’t want Wallace
to repeat to all their ft lends in town that
the engagement was a farce. If she would
go out in her car for a half hour ami
return everything would be smoothed
a wa y.
She consented.
"Bye-bye, dearie," she lisped. *
"Au revoir, sweetheart.” returned
Broadway, affectionately.
"Don't ’isten 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.” and with
one glance yf scorn and fury for Wallace,
she was gone.
"BROADWAY’S" SECRET.
11l 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 crazv!" roared
Wallace.
Broadway ignored the query.
"Now. In the first place," he com
menced deliberately. ”1 want you to
thoroughly understand that I’m positive
ly serious about the whole affair ami
that nothing that y ou can say will change
my plans.”
’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 saint as 1 hate

His friend laughed shortly.
“Thej 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.
"Do you think so?” he asked.
Baukin 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 buck and forth for a moment.
Turning sharply he said:
“Bob, I’m going to let you in on a
little secret -my secret. No one else hi
the world knows. 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.”
”< 'ertainly.”
“I'm broke.” said Broadway, all pre
tense at happiness gone from his face.
“You’re what?”
1 “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 fif.y thousand dollars.”
( “Well, what have you done with all
. of your money?”
. “Put it back in circulation, where it
. came from.”
WHERE IT WENT.
“Wall street?” suggested Wallace.
“No, Broadway.”
j : “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

sibility us expending legitimately more
I than a fixed sum.
Broadway smiled. His tone was al
| most sprightly as he answered:
! i “I didn’t have any trouble in getting
* I rid of it. Everybody seemed very glad
I to get it, and also 1 owe tailor bills, fiower
hills, restaurant bills, jewelry bills, boot
bills. I’ve got a flock of bills in my desk
that would make Rockefeller complain
about the high cost of living, and I can't
pay them because I’m broke."
“Why. you always gave me to under
stand that you were a millionaire?” ex
claimed Bob.
Jackson grinned Sheepishly.
“Well, I lied a little.” said he. “At that

The two young men 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 and
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 I g<> into a restaurant, the
waiters come to blows to see who’ll get
me. If I go in to get shaved, you *
think some one had yelled ‘Fire!’ the
way the barbers dash for the chairs. Oh,
I've been the brlght*eyed baby 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. You know when I first went’
broke I made up my mind that I wouldn't
run into debt, no matter what happened.

Daysey Mayme
and Her Folks
By FRANCES L. GARSIDE.
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
lifte a switchman.
At 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 motliei,
"didn’t understand her. She is so tem
peramental.”
The word explains so many things'
All mothers of backward children use it.
When an attempt was made to teaeb
her to cook, she served over-done steak
with a fresh rose lying on the nil',
and thought her father lacked the fire
of imagery because he looked at tl
steak instead of the flower.
She plays the low tones on the piano
very low, and pounds for the loud one
and her friends encourage her by sav
ing- ?he plays with expression.
"It takes an effort to be tempera
mental, she explained to one who was
not. "All my life long I have talo i'
time to read descriptions of sunset-"
On one occasion Daysev Mayme wts
left to take care of a young K babv. and
when its mother returned she found t .
baby- almost drowned anfl floating off
in Daysey Mayine’s tears.
“I got to thinking," she said, between
sobs, "of the many weary steps that
await those poor little feet before
journey through life is ended—" but li -
sobs choked her, and she could sav n.i
more. J
She will gaze at a flower and sigh
and look out into the dark with a yearn
ing look in her eyes. All her life .<
has induiged in this poetic sorrow when
other girls of less sensitive organize
tions have studied and scrubbed
“I feel,” she said, “just like a mourn
ing dove sounds.”
And that is wiiat it means to he tem
peramental.
