THE EVENING REPUBLICAN, RENSSELAER, IND.

The First Man

“I’m glad you are home at last,” irild the ybuhg man with a sigh of relief. “I certainly missed you a lot. I thought when you went away that two weeks wouldn’t seem any time at all, but it’s been an awfully long two weeks. Did you have a very good time?" "Perfectly elegant!” cried the girl with enthusiasm. “You see there was such a nice crowd over there that there was something going on every day. You know they pride themselves on having only nice people. The Wilcox boys were there: You know them, don’t you?” "For goodness’ sake!” exclaimed the young man. "Of course I don’t like to say anything against any of your special friends, but I simply can’t stand those fellows. I suppose they are pleasant to girls, tho, come to think of it. They always have had a half-dozen girls on the string.” “You needn’t get so excited," protested the girl. "They aren’t special friends of mine. Perhaps you like Dick Underwood better? He was there.” "Dick’s engaged to a girl in New Jersey,” the young man said calmly. Was Andy over there, too? He’s always tagging around wherever you go.” “Andy never tags," declared the girl, with Indignation. “What’s the matter with you tonight?" demanded the girl, after the young man had snorted at the information about Andy. “Maybe you don’t want to hear about my trip?” “Of course I do,” the young man hastened to assure her. "Did Louise go over to Join you?” “I wondered how long it would bo before you asked about her,” said the girl, coolly. "She told me she had had such a pleasant evening at the theater with you."

"I didn’t ask her to go to the theater. There was a party of us, that’s all. The old tennis club got up a crowd to go, and I escorted the chaperon. Louise told me you were probably engaged to that fellow, Bob Wright.” “Louise talks too much,” said the girl. “Did I tell you we went to a fortune teller over in Michigan?” “You didn’t tell me anything," said the young man, gloomily. "All I had was two picture postcards. You left me to hear things and , got know whether they’re true of not.” “The fortune teller said,” related the girl, “that Louise was going to marry a man with dark hair. He’s a lawyer and is tall and imposinglooking. They are going to travel a lot." “Tell me what the fortune teller said about you." , "I thought you’d be interested in hearing about Louise. You’re a lawyer you know.” “I don’t care a rap about Louise,” he announced, grimly. “Tell me about Whom are you going to marry?” “She wasn’t sure that I’d get married at all." “ I don’t believe such foolishness as fortune telling, do you?” “But she said I was to have a chance to marry soon after I got home," the girl went on. “Of course it’s all Silly. It was fun tho.” “Go on. You havenl.tpld„me all, I know from the expression on your face. What else did the fortune telsay “She told me that if I didn’t accept him—" “Who?" "Why, the one who was going to ask me as soon as I got home,” the girl answered in some confusion. “She said I’d make a great mistake if I didn’t, because he was a nice man and we’d be perfectly happy. She said she didn’t see a ‘cloud to mar our happiness. Wasn’t that splendid?” “I don’t know,” said the young man, dubiously. “Has that fellow Wright been over to call since you got back?" “Why, how foolish! You know I didn’t get home till this morning. I haven't seen anybody but you." “I wondered if there was any chance for me?” said the young man, more cheerfully. ‘You do care, don’t you? Just a little? You know I’ve always loved you. Have I got any show against Andy and Bob? Go on, tell me!" "Well," the girl said, "the fortune teller told me to take the first man who asked me after I got home, and you’re the first one.” '1 don’t care anything about that foolish fortune teller," said the young man, impatiently. "What do you think about it yourself? Won’t you give me any encouragement?” "Well,” the girl answered. "Andy and Bob both telephoned this afternoon, asking to come up tonight." "Yes? What dfel you say?” * I told them be engaged this evening. Now let's see; am I?"

NOTWITHSTANDING

By way of enlarging the children’s vocabulary the village schoolteacher is in the habit of giving them a certain word and asking them to form a sentence in which that word occurs. Tbe other day she gave the class the word “notwithstanding.". There was a pause and then a bright faced youngster held up his hand. -----—----- "Well, what is your sentence, Tommy?" asked the teacher. ' ’. . "Father wore his trousers out, but inotwlt Kat Miding."

A Galley o' Fun!

HIB PREFERENCE. “A traveling company of more or less merit Is going to play Sappho at the Op’ry House tonight, at ten, twenty, and thirty cents admission,” remarked the Old Codger, with his usual pessimlstlacridity. “But I guess I’ll just stay at home and smoke ,in comfort and look at the corset advertisements in magazines."

THE BEAUX.

Well, my sister’s got a beau. An* he comes ’most every night, An* he wants the gas so low That there’s hardly any light! An’ Nell likes him lots, I guess, 'Cause she watches on the sly An* takes hours an* hours to dress An* alius sweet as pie. I must call him “Mr. Fenn;" An’ Nell calls him “Mister," too, *Cept when they’re alone, an’ then She keeps gigglin’ at him: “Lew!" But one time I sneaked up near When they thought I wasn’t ’round. An’J heard her call him “dear" An* a funny kissin* sound! He can throw a snake-curve ball. An’ can mew an’ hark an’ Quack, An* he doesn’t mind at all When I pin things on his back. Often evenin’s when he comes I’m downstairs till after eight While he helps me do my sums, Tho’ Nell fidgets ’cause it’s late. Onct when he was here I said: “Say! Why don’t you marry Nell!* An* they sent me straight to bed ’Fore he had a chance to tell! But I’ll ask again, sometime, ’Cause Miss Sommers wants to know; An* she says, she’ll bet a dime That he’s only jest a beau! • THE BEST. Willis—What is the happiest moment of married life? Gillis —When a man throws the pictures of his wife’s relatives out of the family album and fills it up with photographs of his baby instead. HONORS. Customer—l didn’t see as your car won anjyjrize in that race. What are you blowing about? Auto Dealer —Sir! We had a higher percentage of drivers finish alive than any other firm!

HONESTY.

The personage toyed with her lorg nettc. “Have you any children?” she asked by way of introduction. The Housewife trembled. Dared she confess the truth, with all there was at stake? And still she could not lie. “Yesl” she faltered faintly. The Personage started, stare 1, and at length burst out laughing. “Your honesty,” she protested, “is in such refreshing contrast with much that I encounter that, by way of showing my appreciation, I will accept employment with you, provided, of course, that I shall have Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays free, with the use of the entire lower part of the house at any time to entertain company." That evening the Housewife, In a bushed voice, told her Husband of her great good fortune He was decply affected. “Honesty la the best poll* cy!” he exclaimed, with glistening eyes. •. »' ' ' ■ TRAITOR! TTr>n?ry Artist—“Ah, see what .1. have! I was going to buy an apple for three cents, but finally persuaded the shopkeeper to sell me two for five. K Hungrier Ditto—Base churl! I see that even you, too, have caught the sordid spirit of commercialism!

WAR UPON PAIN!

Pain is a visitor to every home and usually it comes quite unexpectedly, But you are prepared for every emergency if you keep a small bottle of Sloan’s Liniment handy. It is the greatest pain killer ever discovered. Simply laid on the skin —no rubbing required—it drives the pain away. It is really wonderful.

Attorney Edward P. Honan was 60 years of age Thursday and when he returned home in the evening he found some eighteen friends gathered to meet him. Mrs. Honan, assisted by Mrs. Beam and Mrs. Ham, had planned and successfully carried out a most successful surprise. Mr. Honan, however, was not long placed hors de combat by the shock and it was a merry party uptil the late evening.

At the Hagenbeck-Wallace circus quarters between French Lick and ■West Baden flood waters backed up into the grounds, reaching the doors of the sheds. The animals became so restless that the trainers were with them all the time lest there shoultj be an outbreak. In the 1913 flood the same circus was inundated at the quarters near Peru. Some of the animals were in that flood and seemed to recognize this as the same kind of occurrence. The cold weather stepped the rise of the waters and little damage was done.
