The tramp drew back digniiied ’y- “Excuse- me.” he said, “I may have my weaknesses, but I hardly think there is anything in my manner to warrant you in thinking I am a United States senator,’’and the cook apologized on the spot, NOT SO CRAZY AFTER ALL, The wit of lunatics may seem an anomaly, but the subject would admit of a full article Our asy lums are often the scene of genu ine honor. The uneasy brain seems as apt as the brain in deep to strike out very funny relations. An inmate of a private asylum, seeing a man pass with a gun, a dog and a couple of snipe, sang out: “How much did that dog cost you, sir? Fifteen dollars. And the gun? Twenty. And the hunting suit, with the boots? Fifty. And how much might the two snipes be worth? * Ten cents. Well, then, you hurry home and leave them, and come here and swap places with me.

New companies and organiza tions are springing up cous‘autly. One of their first moves is for il lustrating and printing something relating to the business, The pro blem is how are engravers and printers to reach and hold such a position as to influence this work? Toe channels ihiough which en graversand printers become known are imprints circulars salesmen, catalogues and advertising space iu periodical publications. Whatever may be the success of all except the last named feature, it is the advertisement in regular publication which carries the strongest influence to the general purchaser. An advertisement conveys an impression of tne successful busi ness of the advertiser and anyone wants to deal with successful firms. It is u peculiarity of acme new engraving and printing compani< g that they advertise the first year and then assume that they are sufficiently well known and cease advert ising. In such a course what becomes of the business of new purchasers and how is the volumu of business to be mantained? Exprience teach es that continuous advertising is essential. —Inland Printer.

Robby Gaylor, ‘‘sport callister,” got the mining fever some years ago and tookjup a claim at Leadvilk ,Coi„ which he worked in conjunction with a chum whose first name was Jim. Robby hud left his wife in New York, and as foituue did not immedi ately smile upon the pair of prospec tors, the comedian had to do consid erable hustling to be able to send bis better half enough money for the usual household expenses. In the meantime the chums were “baching” it in a little log cabin, do ing their own cooking and washing, mending their own clothes, and, in s’ nr), economizing in every direction, b U as to keep dowh their own expen' ses to a minimum. And so it was that one cold morning they discovered that th* ir •irewood was a bout exhausted, and as the adventure did not happen to have the wherewithal to buy another load, they found themselves in an unfortunate predicament it chanced that their nearest neighbor had a fine, large woodpile,but as Bobbie was too proud to beg and too honest to steal lie gazed at it longingly and wondered how he could manage to get some of that wood into his own cabin without lowering bis pride or committing theft. While thus absorbedimnedilation the owner of the woodpile came in sight and the moment Mr. Gaylor espied him a bright idea entered his mind. Calling bis chum he proposed that they engaged in a mock fight Bobby was to beat a hasty re treat in the direction of the wood pile and Jim was to keep up an incessant fusiiade of stones as hie partner ran. Bobby would throw an occasion al stone in return until the wood pile was reached, when he would pick up stick after stick and Lurl it at his antagonist, who received special instructions not to go far from the cabin. The owner of the woodpile saw scrimage, and immediately took sides with the innocent Gay -1 ir, urging the latter on with such exclamations as “Hit him !” “Give it to him! Sock him with another chunk of wood!” The more he urged the faster Bobby threw the wood, and when enough had been secured to last a few days, hostility ceased The happy owner of the wood thought it was great sport, and laughingly remaked to Mr Gaylor that “It was the funniest and best fight he had ever seen.” TO KEEP HER YOUTH, a woman must keep her health.

He is so brilliant that some day he’ll be a lawyer. One day the attorney entered his office and the clerk said: “Mr. B. was here to retain you, sir. ” “Did he say he ? would come again?” “No; but I took a retainer.” “Bright boy! What was the re tainer?” “Fifty dollars, sir.” “Fifty dollars! My retainer fee, you know, is a hundred. You have been very unprofessional.” “But he said fifty was all he had.” ''Hum i And you took it? Good. Very professional, my boy; very professional! ” JACK KING, President T j . w. p.
