There always will be something here of worth. There always wUI be something here worth while. 60 long as there are youngsters fail of fun And baby faces pink with health and glee There will be daddies when their work is done Who find the world good old place to be. So long as there are babies for old arms And soft and downy cheeks for men to press The world will never want for other charms, There'll always be a cure for hopelessness. So long as bright eyed babies wait to see The tired and weary fathers homeward come Make up your mind this world will never be A valley wholly desolate and glum. So long as there are babies here to play, To smooth with little vinds the brow of care. To kiss and laugh our troubles all away. There will be men to struggle on and dare The blows of fate, undaunted, unafraid; There will be daddies brave enough to smile Though on their shoulders burdens great are laid. They'll kiss their babies and count it all worth while. A Rest For the Rabbits. When Tuppers paid a surprise visit to his friend Jipson. arrayed in a faultless shooting garb, his host gripped him heartily by the hand and slapped him even more heartily onv the back. "Glad to see you, old sport!" he cried. "But you've struck an unlucky day. I always keep Tuesday mornings for mending my aeroplanes." "Must I wait?" asked Tuppers disappointedly. "No. not at all. Start away, and I'll join you in the afternoon." So saying, he handed him a bag of ferrets and an antiquated gun. Tuppers returned to lunch with a beaming face. "Splendid shootin'I" he cried. "Have y<)u any more?" ? "MnrpV- .mU-pd .Tinsnn. "What ri'von mean?rabbits?" "No; those blessed little squirrel things you gave me," replied the blbodchirsty Tuppers. "I've shot the lot!" ?Answers. Trail of the Serpent. The popular novelist, about to tackle the last chapter of his latest romance, hesitated. "By every principle of literary art," ; | he reflected, "by every dictum of reason. common sense and logical sequence the hero should commit suicide and the heroine should die of a broken heart But if I give the story a tragic ending it will mean a difference of $20,000 in the sales of the book." So he went ahead and wound up the story just?just as you would have done it, gentle reader, if it had been up to you.?Chicago Tribune. Our esteemed fellow townsman John Dorkin called our esteemed fellow townsman Henry Travers a liar the other day, and between the two of them they managed to kill a dog and scare a Chinaman into fits. These little affairs would be humorous if they did not disgrace the community in which they take place. Tuesday evening last we delivered our celebrated lecture on Christopher Columbus to a large and intellectual audience at Lone Jack and got out of town without being shot It was a narrow escape, though, as several admirers followed us over two miles and wasted a great deal ol ammunition. 3ER rc nk or Store in Lej son Drug Go, Lees to the Secretary.
