the cause of a biz fuss in the Senate.

that Mr. Bryan lacks that qualification

Frye haye announced their intention
to figbt the confirmation of Bryan, if

in spite of the protests which have
been made to him.

The average Sydney girl is pretty
enough, dresses well enough, but
she is an insipid creature, with very
little to say and having very little
interest in the affairs of life. She
canTt talk to any one outside her
own set or upon anything beyond a
certain set of subjects. For the new
acquaintance she has nothing but
monosyllables. " Sydney Sunday

A Fable For Critics.
~What are you doing here#�T asked
the St. Bernard of his neighbor, at
the bench show.
oHave I not as gooda right to be
here as you haveiTT returned the
dachshund.
oNot on your life,TT said the St.
Bernard. ~~YouTre a freak and your |
proper place is in a museum along
with the educated pig and the two
headed mule. What short legs you
have and what a big body! Nature
built you from the top downward
and ran out of material before she
| got through. Look at me and then
go chase yourself!�
oTTve got more good points than
you have,TT ventured the other.
~Rats!T growled the St. Bernard,
and the terrier across the way
pricked up his ears and became in-
terested.
It came to pass, however, that
they tied a blue ribbon to the short
legged dog and the St. Bernard
wasnTt in it. Moral."It isnTt the
outside of a watch that keeps the
time."Detroit Free Press.

~Met a man in the east who said
he came from here,�T remarked the
tenderfoot.
oDid you?TT asked the westerner.
oYes. His name was Hiram Tomp-
kins, and he told us that this wasa
great place for exercise. �T
~~Exercise!TT roared the westerner.
~Well, I should think it was. The
day ho left we gave him ten min-
utesT start and followed him with a
rope. Exercise! Well, 1 guess he
knew. '*"Chicago Post.
