of Shakespeare and Marlowe. While
the sound seems to fit the expression
about "Jack Robinson," there was
nothing in the play to carry out the
resemblance.
Far more likely is the explanation
that in olden times there was a
famous country squire named Jack
Robinson who was noted for the
brevity of his visits.
The servants would barely finish
announcing his name when he was
already bowing his farewell to the
assembled company, and having ut-
tered some pleasing remark, would
be gone.
There is an old verse, which, so
far as is known, first contained the
expression as we use it today. It
runs thus:

Why, I can remember the day before
1 was taken away from ray mother,
my baby brother was carried away to
make a fur coat for some one. Of
course, we are taught from the very-
first never to to complain when our
time comes, and when my brother
found out he was going to be made
into a sealskin coat, instead of weep-
ing and crying, he was as happy as
a lark. Well, I'm just as happy to
be where I am in this tank. It

can see and know me. That's why
it makes me mad when I see folks
feeling sorry for me."
Dicky laughed and said he was
sorry if he had offended the seals.
"I always imagined you fellows
were held prisoners." he laughed.
"Nothing of the sort." snorted Mr.
Seal. "I wouldn't change places
with my cousins back in the ocean
for anything in the world."
Just then the keeper came alons.
and the seals all crowded around to
get their dinner, and Dicky, afraid he
would miss his dinner, bid Happy
Giggles goodby and hurried over in

ARRESTS FOR PERJURY
IN COURT AT SAPULPA
SAPULPA, Okla.. Sept. 30.—A sen-
sation was sprung in superior court
this morning in the midst of the ar-
raignment of twenty-four prisoners,
indicted by the grand jury when
Judge Gaylord R. Wilcox ordered
the arrest of M. C. Bise and his at-
torney, Charles E. Webster, on
charges of perjury and suorna-
tion of perjury respectively. Their
bond was affixed at $5,000 each.
Their arrest followed reading of
a motion signed by Webster to quash
the indictment against Bise charg-
ing him with assault to do bodily
harm.
The motion contained allegations
4hat Judge Wilcox had conspired
with other parties in placing a cer-
tain juryman on the grand jury so
that Bise would be indicted on ac-
count of political enmity.
you must keep your accounts square

of "give and take." Never take from
your physical store unless you are
adding something every day.
Exercise, fresh air, lots of sleep,
regular meals, stated hours of labor,
proper recreation, clean living, at
least one attendance at church per
week-—all these are deposits in the
Bank of Health. Unless you make
uninterrupted additions to your ac-
