It was an old mosguito; he waa very, very weak; His voice was all a-guaver, and he found It hard to speak. He lit upon a victim, and he begged; "I pray, take thought! Consider what you’re doing ere you land that fatal swat. “Know that the bluest blood of all ia flowing through my veins (Although it moves but sluggishly now that the summer wanes); I’ve only sipp< d the choicest draughts thla happy land affords— I never quaffed the ichor of the hind who cheaply boards. “My Jubilant existence has been on a Joy ous plan— I've taken juleps from the neck of some Kentuckian; A maraschino tltJllaht to give me appe tite I’ve gotten from the magnate who plays poker every night. “Occasionally through the day I stooped to common stuff; A soupet n I'rym a cocktail slave was al ways quite enough. But frequently, to cool my brain that al ways was awhirl, I tarried on the temple of a soda water girl. “At night I sang my liveliest, my rolllck- Ingest hums, While flitting through and through th« crowd that opens lots of Mumm's.” (And here his Jaunty speech grew slow; he seemed completely fagged— The old mosquito plainly was unfortu nately jagged.) “And so.” he sighed, “you see that I’m • sated connoisseur, That never have I yearned to bite a com mon cheek or ear. In spite of this, however, I’m a hounded Ishmarelite, And everybody’s hand’s against me all the day and night. "I’m carbolized and gasolized and petrol- ized and slapped And naphthalined and benzolined and kerosened and rapped And sulphurized and etherized and chlor* Idized and fillod With fumigating vapor till at times I'm nearly killed. • “Yet, all I wish”—all faint and far away his murmur seemed, And, lulled to slumber by the song, tha victim sweetly dreamed Until he awakened with a start—ho thought he felt a gaff. There lay the dead mosquito with his punctured autograph. —W. D. Nesbit in Chicago Tribune.

S I :• hi I til THK PltlSONEK DltkW A RKVOLVKU AMD SHOT AT HIS NKCK. pointed a pistol at bis bead and after taking a small amount of change said: “You are not the man 1 am looking for.” Reilly saw a tall man with a slouch bat who answered the description of the highwayman, lie followed him into a saloon, where he watched the man take a drink. As the stranger stepped out of the door the detective stopped him and said: > “1 want to see you.” “Who tire you?” demanded the man. “1 u.u a police officer,” shid Reilly, showing him his badge. “You will have to go with me to the station house. A man was held up here last night, and you answer the description of the fellow who did the job.” Detective Reilly took the man by the arm and was walking down the street with him toward the police station when his prisoner suddenly drew a re volver and shot at his neck, exclaim ing, “You will never take me in alive!” The detective was stunned for a mo ment and fell against the fence. The bullet bad struck his double lined cel luloid collar. The highwayman ran. Reilly, who had recovered his senses, drew his re volver and shouted: “I'll have a shot at you anyway!” He tired four shots, but the burglar kept close to the trees on the avenue and escaped, running In the direction of the railroad tracks. Reilly was taken to the Mount Ver non hospital, where his wound was dressed. When hls celluloid collar was taken off it was found that It had a hole through It. The hospital surgeons said that if It had not been for hls collar Reilly would have been killed. The highwayman was said to have been a member of a gang of burglars that had been looting homes on Long Island sound. Detective Reilly Is known as one of the l ravest men on the Mount Vernon force. For seven years he was a mem ber of the United Slates cavalry and took part in many Indian battles under General Nelson A. Miles. He captured the leader of an Indian massacre, for which General Miles pro moted him to first sergeant. When Reilly went to Mount Vernon and applied for a position as policeman he was without friends. He worked as gardener, and after passing a 99 per cent examination for the police depart ment General Miles wrote the board of police commissioners: “I know of no braver man for the position of policeman in the city of Mount Vernon than Sergeant Reilly, formerly of the United States cavalry.” A general alarm sent out by Ser geant Grant of the Mount Vernon po lice force* read: “Arrest a man about five feet ten Inches In height, weighing about 100 pounds, with a blond mustache and full face, dressed In a dark blue suit and wearing a large soft gray hat. He Just ahot a policeman.” “Tell me,” she asked, after she had accepted him. “am I really your first and only love?” “Well—er—no, dear,” j replied the absent-minded salesr an, “but you are something just as good.” £ ed with the germs and poi •on of malaria or some ore ... ., r. r some 12 yean have vious sickness, are the cniet ■ 0 ribed occurred.

Dear Sir: You buy your horse shoes and nails; your grandfather, if he was a blacksmith, made ’em. You can’t afford to hammer them out by hand, when you can buy as good, or better perhaps, ready made to your hand, for a little more than the cost of the iron. What do you think of a painter who goes on buying his linseed oil and white-lead, and mixing, and tinting by hand, and charging his time for work that is far better-done than he can do it. done by machinery, done as your horseshoes and nails are made. Mistake isn’t it? He is wasting his chance in the world. There is no better stuff to do business with than good horseshoes and paint: and no better work than putting them on. Good horseshoes well put on: It’s the putting ’em on that makes you a blacksmith: no mat ter who makes ’em. Who wants to go back to old times, and make his own horseshoes? Between us two. that painter don’t know how to make good paint—he used to; but paint has run away from him. Yours truly 80 F W Devoe & Co P. S.—The Builders Supply Co. sells our paint.
