EDGAR LEAYCRAFT & CO., 19 West 42d Street, New York No Changing the Log N A certain ship the mate was too fond of the cup that cheers. The captain did his utmost to break him of this habit, and, everything else failing, told him that the next time he was drunk he would write it in the log. For a long time after this the mate stopped drinking, but one day he fell into his old habit. Thereupon the captain wrote the following entry in the log: “August 12, 19—; 60 deg. north longitud deg. west latitude. Mate Jones is drunk to-day ‘The mate begged him to take this off, saying that it would spoil his chances of ever being made captain of aship. But the captain said: “It’s true, isn’t it?” “Yes; but" replied the mate. “Well,” said the captain, “the record stands.”” A few days later the mate had to write the entry. On looking over the log the amazed captain saw this entry: “August 13, 19—3 80 deg. north longitude, 67 deg. west latitude. Captain Smith is sober to-day He sent for the mate and demanded what he meant by such an entry, ordering him to take it off. “Well,” said the mate, “it’s true, isn’t it?” “Of course it’s true!” roared the captain. “Then the record stands,” replied the mate.— Exchange 7° RILINER SAUERBRUNNES.

The Tale of a Toothpick WELL-KNOWN sculptor tells the following story: Whenever I see a toothpick I think of a dinner that was given in Rome in honor of two Turkish noblemen. “T sat beside the younger of the noblemen. He glittered with gold embroidery and great diamonds, but, nevertheless, I pitied him sincerely, for he was strange to our table manners, and some of his errors were ludicrous and painful. “Toward the dinner’s end a servant extended to the young man a plate of toothpicks. He waved the plate away, saying in a low and bitter voice : “*No, thank you; I have already eaten two of the accursed things, and I want no more.’”"—London Tit-Bits. _ T A dinner party a clergyman was much more bored than edified by a young lady who told him a long story of her aunt’s narrow escape from a railway accident. “Owing to the congested traffic at the corner of Park Lane,” she told him, “my aunt just missed the train at Victoria which was wrecked at Croydon, Wasn’t it providential? “Can't say,” snapped the cleric, in a grating ; “didn't know your aunt.”"—Iilustrated Bits, Did Better ‘OU quit smoking because she asked you to?” “And you quit drinking because she asked you to?” "Yep." “And you quit swearing because she you to?” “Yep.” “And you began going in better society because she asked you to?” Yep.” “Tt is a wonder to me you did not marry her?” “T had intended to, but when I had gotten rid of all my bad habits I found I could do better.” Houston Daily Post. asked GREAT BEAR SPRING WATER “ite purity has made {t famous.’ 265 Culinary Success Is a matter of good seasoning.
