An Incident of the Road. “Stop!” cried the man in the road. ‘‘You are exceeding the speed limit!”” ‘That’s ail nonsense !"’ retorted Binks, bringing his car to a standstill. “That’s what they all say,’’ said the man in the road, climbing into the car. ‘*You can tell your story to the magistrate at Hinktown— jest seven miles up the road. Start along, please.’’ They drove on in silence to Hinktown, where, as the car drew up in front of the court house, the man in the road got out. “Much obliged for the lift,’’ said he. ‘‘You can settle that matter of speed with the magistrate if you want to. As stranger in these parts, I don’t think my word would go for much.’""—Harper’s Weekly. me ts AC Dicey ae Squirrel—" You SEEM TC HAVE A VERY SMALL PAMILY THIS BAR, MOTHER CLUCKS.” Mother Clucks—“ at THE PRESENT PRICES OP EGGS IT’ TOO EXPENSIVE TO RAISE LARGE PAMILIES.” “THE THANKSGIVING DINNER, or any dinner for that matter, is not complete without_an appetizing CLUB COCKTAIL to begin with.

A Letter to His Honor To the Editor of Judge. SIR :—Having been a reader of and a contributor to your columns for a number of years, you will not, perhaps, object to my saying a few words about one of your predecessors, RK. K. Munkittrick, who re- cently died. Having been a free lance himself, he was quite intimate with the foibles and eccentricities of that struggling class of writers, and was more than generous in rewarding humor, when he recognized it. It was his boast, and I wish it were the boast of more editors, that he cleared his desk every day. If he didn’t want a joke, or a squib, back it went at once. He was always affable, and always approach- able. His style was distinctive, happy and rollicking. His nature was sunny, and his perseverance indomit- able, when he was in harness. I speak of the man as I knew him. His passing away will leave a sad gap, which in the usual course of events will sooner or later be filled, but the material will scarcely be as excellent. His outstretched hand was always there to grasp Whoever needed it in helping clasp. A happy wit, an ever ready smile, A tongue that never spoke a word of guile A good and true Bohemian, if you will, An honest, boon companion of the quill. Goodby just for a time—we'll not forget-— For, though too soon his earthly sun has set, If God, and Church, and creed ae not in vain, ‘The hand we gripped just now we'll grip again.
