How Gwendolyn Wagsmith Became a Countess Without Any Expense. COLONEL "WAGSMITH sat in hia office, his face a picture of gloom. Reputed captain of finance. It had now become necessary for him to confess to the failure of his schemes. He bad just signed certain final papers which cleared the way for a receivership when the office boy entered the room bearing a card. The colonel read its superscription, and his face cleared. It read a^ follows: "The Countess Burgstaller." "Show the lady right in, Henry," said the colonel. "Is any one with her?" "Yes, sir," said the boy. "A tall feller with a red mustache. Looks like he thought he was the yemperer of Choymany, air." "Good!" said the colonel. 'Til see them right away." . . The office boy disappeared, and the | colonel threw his head back and ini dulged in a silent guffaw. 'T thought It would work," he muttered to himself. The door opened, and the colonel's daughter, followed by a tall military looking individual, entered the room. "Father!" she cried. "What! You?my daughter?" returned the colonel, the laughter fading from his face. "Why., this card says the Countess of Burgstaller." "I am she," said Gwendolyn, a rosy blush mantling her cheek. "Adolph and I"? "Ve haff elopit. Colonel Vagschmidt," put in the count, seeing that the girl hesitated. "I lofe her so, undt all de vortdt lofes a loafer. Ve hope for your forgifness." In an instant the count was upon one knee, and the countess' arms were intwined about her father's neck. "Forgiveness:" roareu wa^smuu, freeing himself gently from the embrace. "Forgiveness! Why. my dear count, what have I to forgive? I am delighted?perfectly delighted." The count rose quickly and eyed the magnate with curious eyes. "Teligbted, Colonel Vagschmidt?" he inquired in a tone of deep perplexity. "That's what 1 said, count," returned the colonel. "Perfectly delighted." "But" said the bewildered count, "I do not undherstant. Ditt you not forbitt me de house alretty?" "Ha-hum!" ejaculated Wagsmith. "Come to think of it, old man, I did. I told you?let's see, just what did I say?" "You saidt dot iff I come to~~de house vunce more again you vould haff de putler take me to te door yet again vunce more undt show it to me, mitt der policeman on dher oudside." "Hum!" said Wagsmith. "Yes, I believe 1 did say that, count?I did." "So ven I come around diss mornink ven you vass down to dher office undt take Miss Gwendolyn to de Liddle Church up by dher Corner," resumed the count, "I haff done somedings dat call for your forgiffness. vot?" "Not at all?not at all, my dear fellow," said the colonel, rising and seizing the count by both hands. "You did ' ? A.j ?. J? ?? exactly wnat 1 wameu juu w uv. "Vot ? you ? Touted ? me? to?do?" echoed the count, astounded. "Certainly, my dear man," said the colonel. "And you fell into my plans perfectly. When 1 saw that Gwendolyn had set her heart upon having you I made up my mind that she should have you if there was any way under heaven to bring it about, and just now that was the only way." "Dher only vay?" repeated the count, rubbing the top of his head as though something had stunned him. "I guess I haff lost my Engklish. I do not undherstant" "I have never denied my daughter anything?not even the things 1 could not afford." said the colonel. "She wanted you, and my plan was that she should have you." "Den vy you forbitt me dher house?" protested the count. "So that you would do just what you have done?elope with her," said the colonel. "Ynn rished dher eloDement?" de manded the count, more perplexed than ever. "Yes, my son," said Colonel Wagsmith. "I did. So here is my bless- 1 ing"? "But vy?" cried the count "Well, if you must know, count," replied the colonel. "I am going into the hands of a receiver tomorrow morning, and to tell you the honest truth I couldn't afford the expenses of a swell ( wedding." \ "Donner undt blitzen!" murmured the count as they laid him gently in the ambulance. "Donner undt blitzen!" 1 And that is how Gwendolyn Wag- j smith became the Countess Burgstaller without its costing her father a cent? , Harper's Weekly. Some Fall.

Arzie Clemis, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Dooley, was born July the 5th, 1911, and died July the 6th, 1911, making her stay on earth only one day. We know not what it is. dear, This sleep so deep and still; The lid that will not lift again, Though we may call and call. The strange, white solitude of peace, now settles over all. The golden gates were opened wide, . A gentle voice said ccme: And angels from the other side Welcomed my loyed one home. Ileaven now retains my treasure, Earth the lonely casket keeps; And the sunbeams loye to linger. Where my dear baby sleeps. ?Her Mother. - ? - "Song of The Camp." "Give U9 a song," the soldier cried, ^The outer trenches guarding, As the heated guns of the camp allied nroxTT nroorv nf HnmhArrHntr. "The Song of the Gamp" i9 by Bayard Taylor. The other stanzas are as follows: The dark Redan, in silent scoff, Lay grim and threatening under; And the tawny mound of the Malskoff No longer belch'd its thunder. There was a pause. A guardman said: "We storm the forts tomorrow; Sing wnile we may, another day Will bring enough of sorrow." They lay along the battery's side. Below the smoking cannon; Brave hearts from Severn and from Clyde, And from the banks of Shannon. They sang of love, and not of fame; Forgot was Britain's glory; W T ' I Each heart recall'd a different, name But all sang 4'Annie Laurig." Voice after voice caught up the song, Until its tender passion Rose like an anthem, rich and strong? Their battle-eve confession. Dear girl, her name he dared not speak, But a9 the song grew louder, Something upon the soldier's cheek Wash'd off the stains of powder. Beyond the darkening ocean burn'd The bloody sunset's embers, While the Crimean valleys learn'd How English love remembers. And once again a fire ofpiell Rain'd on the Russian quarters, With scream of shot, and burst of shell, And bellowing: of the mortars! And Iiish^Nora's eye9 are dim For a singer dnm b and gory; And English Mary mourns for him Who sang of "Annie Laurie." Sleep, soldiers! still in honor'd rest Your truth and valor wearing; The bravest are^the tenderest? The loving are daring. ?Bayard Taylor. Depends on the Lap. A young woman recently sent this extraordinary request to the editor of the Religious Jour.it 1 subscribed for at her home: "Do you think it right for a girl to sit in a man's lap, eyen if she is engaged?" The eaifcDr spent some time in prayer and answered her as follows: "Yes, if it were our girl and our lap. Yes, again, if it were some other fellow's girl and our lap. But if it were our girl and our girl in some other fellow's lap, emphatically no. We don't approve of such frivolty." A girl never has to Jcoax a young man not to spend so much money on tier after they are married. There's a lot of gasolene wasted in family arguments. The more people can talk about the weather, the less they can think of iseful things. A man who will describe others as not knowing enough to come in out of ;be rata will mseii noc nave enoagn lo quit speculating. What you know about a woman is poa never know what she is going to lo; and what you don't like about a man is sometimes what you do know. EggS""-'"1" & a?
