Ta, what is a foregone conclusion?" "Something that you know will happen before it does. For instance, it's a foregone conclusion that if your mother should come into this room now and see me with my feet cocked up and my cigar going nicely, as you see me, she would immediately think of something that? Ah, there she comes! Listen!" "Henry," she said, "I wish you'd see if you can't do something to the dining room window. I can't get it up or down. And when you get that fixed oil the hinge of the kitchen door. It squeaks terribly."?Judge. A Literary- Repast. "John," said the poet, "time for breakfast, isn't it?" "Yes, sir?high time!"

"Why all the women under sixty are not over thirty," answered the noisy thinker.?Chicago News. The Limit. Tess?Miss Gidday must be really seriously ill. She hasn't any appetite at all. Jess?Nonsense!

A Punktov/n Hostelry And the Honest Man i WHEN the stranger with grass j germs in his tresses was shown j the last room back on the sec- I ohd floor of the Punktown hostelry and j saw what sort of a stall he was to be I bedded down in for the night, he bucked vigorously and said in the most offensive manner he could summon: "Look at that chair! Liable to fall down even if I hang my shirt on it. The wash pitcher is fatally cracked, and the bowl has a scallop as big as a summer squash. The carpet is full of holes and dirt}*, and so much quicksilver has been rubbed off the back of the looking glass that I look as if I had the smallpox. The cover on the washstand has been on there for two long, hard, busy, dirty years, and the bed looks like a swayback horse with a thin blanket over it. If I were to try to sleep on that bed I would arise in the morning looking like a waffle. Thw wall paper is off in large patches?in fact, it is off in a bunch. The ceiling is cracked, and a yard or so of plastering is liable to fall and smother me in the landslide at any moment. That table is really only a one night stand, and you couldr^t write on it if you had two men standing and holding it." By this time the porter was very tired and angry, so he cried out in his vexation: "That's right?kick, kick! But I'll - A. - * J - 11 ~ Dei a Dig UDJiar juu re uui uscu tu u.u,y better than this at borne." "Young man," said the stranger in Punktown, "your bet is begging for takers. Your proposition is too much of a cinch to bet on. Things at home are as bad as this, if not worse. But what does a man go away from home for if not for a change of scene? I hoped I would find something comfortable and clean and perhaps even elegant at a hotel." Moved to tears of compassion by reason of the man's honesty, the porter surreptitiously escorted him to Parlor A, where things were much better, because the wash pitcher had a shallow crack in it, and there was one upholstered chair.?Strickland W. Gillilan in Judge. Am Unreasonable Request. Mrs. 0. was ordering the day's lunch over the telephone.

"No, no, no!" came the testy reply. "Madam, you have' made a mistake. This is Dr. Smith's telephone."?Lippincott's Magazine. Significance of Wedding Presents. '"the wedding presents they received indicate that they must have a large number of very kind friends." "Not at all. Their wedding presents indicate that they have a lot of acquaintances, each of whom is anxious to exhibit greater lavishness than the others may afford."?Chicago RecordHerald. A Cool Proposal.

I FIFTY CENTS IN some conditions the gain from the use . of Scott's Emulsion is very rapid. For this reason we put up a fifty-cent size, which is enough for an ordinary cough or cold or useful as a trial for babies and children. In other conditions the gain is slower?health cannot be built up in a day. In such cases Scott's Emulsion must be taken as nourishment; a food rather than a medicine, it's a food for tired and weak digestions. Send for frre sample I _ Scott & Bowne, 409-415 Pear!
