HUMOROUS QUIPS. « .ttl ii A Boy’s View. Mrs. McGrew she don’t go to card clubs. Shs’s got lots to do, and when ma is away I slip over there and play basebail with Mickey. They live in an alley Just over th’ way. An' Mrs, McGrew she bakes tea cakes—they’re dandy—an' when supper comes at our house I most die.

But. shucks, she's got clubs, an' she's always out shoppin' an’ leaves me at home, where there's nothin’ to do!

Now, you'd oblige me very much if you’d let me have a bit of cloth for a patch.” “Yes. here is some.” “Thankee very much, mum. It’s n little different color from my suit, 1 ■iee. Perhaps, mum, you could spare me some of your husband's old clothes ■ that this patch will match.” “Well. I declare!

A very pretty but extremely slender girl entered a street car and managed to seat herself In a narrow space be tween two meu. Presently a portly colored mammy entered the car, and the pretty miss, thinking to humiliate the 1 men for their lack of gallantry, arose. “Auntie,” she said, with a wave of her hand toward the place she had just vacated, “take my seat” “Thank you. missy,” replied the colored woman, smiling broadly, “but which gen’man’s lap was you siftin' on?”—Magazine of Fun.

RINGLING CIRCUS AT FT. WAYNE Great Spectacle of “Joan of Arc” Added to Their Show. Ringling Brothers’ circus nnd newly added $500,000 spectacle, ‘ Joan of Arc," will exhibit in Fort Wayne July 12. The spectacle in itself is an attraction that should bring thousands of visitors from the surrounding country. It is beyond question the greatest production of its kind eVer seen in America. • The world’s most skillful scenic artists, costumers, property-makers, chorus directors and stake managers were engaged to mount the production. A stage bigger than a hundred ordinary theaters was built and made portable from town to town and erected each morning in the main tent. Thus the circus proprietors have made it possible for those who live in contributory towns as well as in the large cities to see this magnificent wordless play with Its’ cast of 1,200 characters, a ballet of 300 dancing girls, a grand opera chorus of 400 voices, 600 horses and a train load of special scenery, costumes, properties and mechanical devices for producing such stage effects as thunder, lightning, storms, fires, and the sound of battle. In the old market place of Rouen, France, there now stands a monument by which the French of today have sought to redeem their part in the execution of Joan of Arc, who on May 30, 1431, was burned to death on the false charge of heresy after having delivered her country from the English, and having restored the crown to Charles VII. History records but the meager facts of this strange heroine of eighteen years, who led the armies of France victorious through English invasion, and then, deserted by all, even the indolent monarch whom she preserved, died by the cruelest torture known with the name of the master upon her lips. Unsung in poetry the name of this simple peasant girl has come down through the ages to be revered as that of a saint, and whose wonderful powers and whose bravery are verily believed to have been o fdivine inspiration. On the triumphant incidents, the victorious engagements, the final defeat of the English armies, and the coronation of Charles VH, all achieved by the frail Maid of Orleans, has been founded the inspiring spectacle. which gives Ringling Brothers’ circus a new significance and makes an attraction such as the world in searching for amusement has never before found. The regular circus program is more than ever attractive. Its company of 375 foreign artists, its double menagerie and its new street parade will prove n great sprprise to those who attend from this city. The event is one that should not be missed. o. ITCHING SCALP. Easy to Get Rid of by Using Parisian Sage, the Guaranteed Hair Invigorator. Just as long as you have dandruff your heal will itch. It’s the little microbes that are gnawing down into the hair roots. It may take a long time for these persistent pests to getl down to the vital part, but when they do, they will destroy the life of the hair in a very short time. If you want to stop itching scalp and drive away dandruff, you must first kill the dandruff germs or microbes. Parisian Sage will do this. Just get a 50c bottle today; relief will come Immediately, and if at the end of two weeks your itching scalp and dandruff have not disappeared, you can have your money back. Parisian Sage is also a delightful hair tonie, and is used hy refined women who desire fascinating, lustrous and luxuriant hair. A large bottle only costs 50 cants at the Holthouse Drug Company at Decatur, and druggists everywhere. The girl with the Auburn hair is on every bottle. 19-24-26
