The Manicure Lady
"THBBB WAS TWO swell society ladies up to our house th* other night," utf the Manicure Lady. /'What society are they around preventing fort" asked the Head Barber. „ The Manicure Lady glared at the Head Barber for at least as long as It would take a good watch to tick •® times, aad then remarked frigMi/: "You are a awful bonebead. George. Somebody must hare came al<mg whoa you work a. little boy and told you that you was a humorist, and the thing must have took. You make me feel dark brown all over." "Go on and tell us about the soclety ladles, kiddo," coaxed the Head Barber. "I suppose some of my Josh MSB is a little coarse around the fringe, but I dca’t mean nothing. Toll mo about the dames. Was they dimpled debutantes, like the divorced mon marry, or dizzy dames, like the* married men divorce*" “They wae Just what 1 said,”, replied the Manicure Lady, not altogether mollified, but willing to keep up her monologue. "They have just came here from Chicago, and it seems that one of them knew mother when they al) went to boarding school Mother saw them the <Hher day and told them that Wilfred knew a lot of the magazine •Alters- Bt * didn’t te,) th ®“» how Wilfred knew the magazine editors, but they came up to the house Just the same, and we soon found out the reason why. One of the society ladies had wrote a book of society verses, and she thought that maybe Wilfred could frame it so she could got them published. "Wilfred shined up to, her right away, of course, because he figured that being a society woman she must have some kind of a bank roll herself, and 1 could see that my darling brother was figuring to send her to a publisher that would be willing to kick in with a commission. He read some of her verses out loud, until the got up and went into the kitchen, and then he read a lot more to himself, and this is what he told the dame, George, as sure as I am sitting here waiting for " 'My dear madam,’ says Wilfred, who never had no chance before to act as a editor and who was enjoying it like a black bass enjoys a green frog, *my dear madam, your verse has that wonderful tilt for which the works of Gilbert and Dante is noted for,’ he nays. ‘I find, however, here and there, a slight lack of color, qy what we editors call tone. There is something of Byron in this ringing couplet, for Instance: "What makes a nation long for better things. Like plenty of new frocks and diamond rings?”- ’ " ‘My dear sir,’ says the literary lady, *1 did not come here to get your opinion as to the literary value of my book of verses. That is already established. What I wanted to know is this: Can you introduce me to a good publisher?* “Poor brother was some froze after this spiel, and ho sulked a little, but ho promised to take her down to a publisher next Tuesday, and you can bet, George, if the publisher accepts the book on any kind of a cash basis I am going to get back that tenspot that Wilfred maced me for last week. I wonder if that society lady is kind of balmy in the bean?" "I don’t know," replied the Head Barber. “They say most poets is.”
NOT OF THE NEW SCHOOL.
“Dobbin* is an unnatural father.** "How •a?’’ "Hi* baby throw his cold watch from the thtrd-etory window to the pavement and he didn't see anything cute in it."
Clever
A German gentleman wanted to take a day's drive through the country. He applied to a stable for the horse and carriage. The owner, not knowing the German, wgs slow to give him th» team. Finally the German pulled ou: a roll of banknotes and said: "I will buy your horse and rig providing you will buy them back at the same price when 1 return this evening." The dealer, not wishing to offend a -probable future customer, consented. When in the evening the German presented himself and expressed his pleasure at the ride, the dealer, according to agreement, paid him back his money , and the customer started to take hie leave. "I beg your pordon, sir,’* exclaimed the dealer, "but you have forgotten to pay for the hire, you know." "Pay for the hire? Why, my dear air," coolly replied the German, "I fan to see that. If you will exercise your memory a trifle you will agree that 1 have been driving my own hone and carriage all day, and now you have back they are yours And he left tin astonished dealer tO NtOSt ISI s. » wmm
EDITOR BANQUETED WITH THE HÒSIER LITERATL
(Continued from Page One.) a trifle too grave for the occasion. Apparently he was thinking of the white house far away and perhaps was almost as conscious as about every one else that It is slipping farther away every time he addresses an audience of intelligent people. But his speech gave the banqueters a chance to look at a set of. twelve books, all the works of Indiana authors, the souvenirs of the banquet and the only ones that will ever be issued of the same kind. The guests seemed to have about completed looking at the books when the governor completed his speech and all were ready for the rich wit of Btrickland Gilliland, who arrived late on account of-.having, been engaged that night for a lecture in a Chicago suburb. Pending, his arriyal, several dispatches were penned in rhyme by Wilbur D. Nesbit, proclaiming his approach. Gilliland is the author of that splendid classic, “Off again, on again. Finnigan,” and if his speech could have been criticised at aH it was because he made it too short. In reference to the, books, which are of about 100 pages each and .specially printed as souvenirs of this banquet, Mr. Ade briefly reviewed the organization of the Indiana Society of Chicago, telling of the growth of the souvenirs and of the Increase hi attendance at the**annnal banquets. He said the’t it was probable that next year's banquet would be at the Coliseum and that each guest would be given a Carnegie library. He valued the set of books this year at SSOO. As the banquet cost $lO a plate, he said that the guests would all go away from the hall with a clear profit of $490 tucked under their arm. At the 8Ug b estion of Mr. Ade, the human megaphone in the balcony called the roll of counties and all those from each county arose and called “here” when their* county was called. When Jaspefr county was called J arose and there was a great whoop of friendship went up from all over the great banquet room. But those ■who were seated near me did not seem to be looking at me and those behind me seemed to be looking over ;or around or through me and then 1 saw that William B. Austin was the center of attraction and I realized that it don’t always get a fellow anything to weigh 215 pounds. The next morning the Chicago Tribune settled the matter of who the cheers were for beyond any doubt when it said that William B. Austin was the first man from the counties called to 1 receive special recognition. He was chairman of the general committee, also of the invitation committee and a member of the reception committee. Will G< Paxton, of Hammond, a native Jasperite. was also present, but he arose with, the Lake county crowd. If there were any other Jasper county people we did not meet them. The Indiana Society of Chicago is largely made up of men of literary prominence, and includes George Ade, John T. and George Barr McCutcheon, Wilbur D. Nesbit, Meredith Nicholson, Both Tarkington, Kin Hubbard, Strickland Gilliland and Robert Alexander Wason. The latter is a brother of Judge Wasop, of Delphi, who broke into literature with a bpok called “Happy Hawkins.” He is the author of one of the best books in the set given as souvenirs. It Is entitled “The Dog and the Child and the Ancient Sailor Man” and is a delightful little story with many lessons in it As “Bob” Wason he came here some twelve years ago with a Delphi football team and played a star game but had the ill fortune to have his hip broken. Whether Bob found any inspiration iiterarlly from football is not known but his success is additional proof that a fellow can play football and then turn out to amount to something. ’ Well, the banquet was a great success, and it is a big event In the life of » country editor to have the privilege of attending one.

It was made for the row of tenement houses x>n the side of the road and is a much needed convenience, as heretofore the} had to carry water quite a distance. Jmes McDonald, of Maxwell, lowa is here for a visit with relatives ans friends. Jim was formerly a resident of McCoysburg for a good many years, at one time being a partner with A. McCoy here. Elmer Ross is still just about holding his own, and may be a little better. His fever has been two degrees above normial for several days, but his chances for recovery are about tvo to one. They let the nurse go awa> Friday evening. Clyde Davisson got his face burned at the dredge Sunday afternoon. A steam pipe bursted near where he was standing and the hot steam struck him on one side, burning his face and ear so bad that he went to a doctor to have the wound dressed. The roads have been the worst forthe time of year that we have had in a good while. In fact, they were no worse any day last spring than they were Saturday. People should avoid, as far as possible, the hauling of heavy loads when the roads are in such bad
condition. Sunday school officers were elected Sunday for the year 1912 to take effect the first Sunday in January. They were as follows: Edna Lefler, superintendent; Mrs. C. C. Randle, assistant; Ethel Parker, secretary-treasur-er an<l organist; Roy Bussell, teacher of Bible class and Frank Rlngelse-> teacher of the young men and won en s class.

ONLY ONE “BEST"
Rensselaer People Give Credit Where Credit is Dute.' People of Rensselaer who suffer with sick kidneys and bad backs want a kidney remedy that can be depended upon. The best is Doan's Kidney Pills, a medicine for the kidneys only, made from pure roots and herbs, and one that is backed by willing testimony of Rensselaer people. Here’s a case: Mrs. F. W. Rutherford, College Ave., Rensselaer, Ind., says: “I have no reason to alter my high opinion of Doan’s Kidney Pills which I publicly expressed In the fall 1907. I have even greater confidence in this remedy than I did then, for I found It to be just as represented. I was badly in need of something that would relieve my suffering. Hy hack ached most of the time and I felt languid and devoid of ambition. I had dizzy spells and head-
aches and there were many other symtoms of kidney trouble present. When I read that Doan’s Kidney Pills were a good remedy for such complaints, I procured a box at Fendig’s Drug Store and they brought prompt relief. I am seldom without a supply of Doan’s Kidney Pills In the house and I find that a few doses now and then, keep my kidneys In good working order. Other members of my family have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills and in each case the results have been of the best” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
