UVE THHOUQH SILLY SEASCN Boy# ?n'd Qirta Can Be Trusted to Out* grot* Natural FoolUhne** of Their Early Yeare. A pmti in old when a.* begins to bo Irritated by the (oily of youth.

Tin? eld man ts Convinced that they will nil go to tin' devil. lie thinks they will ull bo bunged, and rather hope* they will. But they are not. Consider ing the variety and extent of the temp tations our civilisation offers, a sur prisingly small number of boys grow up to be hangod, They have their silly season their pea sou of taking pride In thing* that are not wholly respect able ? and then they settle down to be come old men and criticize the next generation. T ho father who Is old loses sleep in the fear that his boy will not turn out all rl^ht. He forgets that he was that same kind of boy, anil if he, having made a poor start, was able to become the wonderful creature he now Is, what reason has he to believe that a son of his will fall to do as well?

While commissioner of supplies at General Pershing's headquarters. In France, General Dawes needed eight .hundred horses and needed them in a hurry. His formal application was promptly turned down by the British commander. Dawes was not to be thwarted, and trailed this particular officer, Gen. William B. Budkin, to his hotel and thence to a cafe to make a personal appeal. While they were waiting for service a good orchestra played. It brought Dawes' Jangling nerves Into tuue. life hnd a parley with the orchestra leader and soon was playing an instrument. General Budkin and his party so en joyed this music that they kept Dawes playing most all night and in the morn ing he got his eight hundred horses he had fiddled them out of the British commander. Barthelmess Meets a Sport. Dick Barthelmcss says he has met many sports In his day, but none equal a country friend he met while on loca tions. "He pestered the life out of me to introduce him to a girl in the picture. I filially did so. He took her out three times and stopped short.' " 'What's the matter?' I asked him. 'Don't you like her any more?' " 'Well, I thought I liked her, but she tried to work me,' he answered. 'The first time I was out with her .she told me she liked salted almonds, so I her some. The next night, when we wore taking a walk, she had to have some more. The third night, when we were sitting on th<? hotel porch. she wanted some u^ore salted almonds. " 'That's where I quit.'" Dick quotes his rural friend as saving. " 'That ! darn girl owes me fWl cents now and i she hasn't made a move to pay it i back.' "?New York Tribune. Advice to Idiots.
