Rather Effeminate.
Congressman Peter J Doollng of
New York smiled the other evening
when reference at a dinner was made
to effeminate ways. He Bald he was
reminded of the explanation of Smith.
Some time ago the Smiths attended
a reception where they met a man
named Brown. On the way home,
while exchanging opinions of the
guests, Drown was mentioned.
"Speaking of that man Brown," vig-
orously remarked Smith, "he certainly
has an effeminate way of talking."
"Why, John," was the wondering re-
Joinder of Mrs. Smith. "How can you
■ay that? He certainly has a very
loud and masculine voice!"
"Yes, I know he has," explained
Smith, "but what 1 mean Is that he
talks all the time."—Philadelphia Tele
graph.
NEVER TENDER FATHER
LEO TOLSTOY NOT A MAN TO IN-
SPIRE AFFECTION.
Very Effective.
At an English provincial theater not
long since the curtain rose on an
empty stage in the second act of a
play, and by and by a meek-looking
young man with a dust-coat slung over
his arm came on and loudly called,
"Uncle—uncle!"
According to the book of the play
he should have received no answer to
his call, and after an appropriate pause
should have gone on With a mono-
logue. But a graceless "god" in the
gallery took upon himself to answer
the actor.
"All right, I'm coming in a moment
How much do you want on it?" he
shouted.
The effect on the audience may be
Imagined.
Found Task a Hard One.
Whether a boy's ears belong to his
face or his neck has always been a
matter of washing convenience to the
boy. One of two boys on a street car
evidently had been told to wash his
face, for his companion remarked:
"You're all dirty back of your ears."
"Aw, I ain't either," remonstrated
the accused.
"Well, you don't have to believe
me," said the other; "you Just look
and see."
"Can the contortions," growled the
conductor; and the boys became as
quiet as boys can be."
Where It Counts.
"Aunt Dinah, are you going to
have 'obey' eliminated from the cere-
mony r*
"No, chile; but I sho is gwinter

HI* Son Writes That He Only Said
"Good Night" and "Good Morning"
to Hie Children ae a Matter
of Duty.
There was one distinguishing and,
at first sight, peculiar trait, in my fa-
ther's character, due perhaps to the
faot that he grew up without a mother,
and that was that all exhibitions of
tenderness were entirely foreign to
him.
I say "tenderness" In contradiction
to heartiness. Heartiness he had.
and in a very high degree.
His description of the death of my
Uncle Nikolai is characteristic in this
connection. In a letter to his other
brother Sergei Nikolaievltch, In
which he described the last day of his
brother's life, my father tells how he
helped him to undress:
"He submitted, and became a differ-
ent man. He had a word of praise for
everybody, and said to me: 'Thanks,
my friend.' You understand the sig-
nificance of the words as between us
two."
It is evident that in the language of
the Tolstoy brothers the phrase "my
friend" was an expression of tender-
ness beyond which Imagination could
not go. The words astonished my fa-
ther even on the lips of his dying
brother.
During all his lifetime I never re-
ceived any mark of tenderness from
him whatever.
He was not fond of kissing children,
and when he did so in saying good
morning or good night, he did It merely
-as a duty.
It is therefore easy to understand
that he did not provoke any display of
tenderness toward himself, and that
nearness and dearness with him were
never accompanied by any outward
manifestations.
It would never have come into my
head, for instance, to walk up to my
father and kiss him or to stroke his
hand. I was psrtly prevented also
from that by the fact that I always
looked upon him with awe, and his
spiritual power, his greatness, pre-
vented me from seeing in him the
mere man—the man who was bo plain-
tive and weary at times, the feeble
old man who so much needed warmth
and rest.
The years will pass. The accumu-
lated Incrustations which hide the
truth will pass away. Much will be
wiped out and forgotten. Among oth-
er things my father's will will be for-
gotten—that will which he himself
looked upon as an "unnecessary out-
ward means." And men will see more
clearly that legacy of love and truth
In which he believed deeply, and
which, according to his words, "can-
not perish without a trace."
In conclusion, I cannot refrain from
quoting the opinion of one of my kins-
men who, after my father's death, read
the diaries kept both by my father and
my mother during the autumn before
Lyoff Nlkolaievlch left Tasnaya Poly-
ana
"What a terrible misunderstand-
ing!" he said. "Each loved the other
with such poignant affection, each was
suffering all the time on the other's
behalf, and then this terrible ending!
... I see the hand of Fate In this."

iscences of Tolstoy," In the Century.

An Amerlcsn congressman In his
last election was opposed by a man
who owned a farm and posed ae a
great friend of the farming interests.
The congressman had once owned a
farm and a herd of Jerseys, but had
lost money at it and given It up. But
he did not intend to let his opponent
have him at a disadvantage, so he is-
sued a challenge.
"We'll go to any dairy farm you se-
lect," he said, "and If I don't milk more
cows than you do in the course of an
hour, I'll withdraw from the contest
If I win then you withdraw."
But his opponent refused to accept
the challenge.
"How many cows can you milk per
hour?" inquired a friend of the chal-
lenger.
"How do I know till I tryT" he re-
plied. "I never milked a cow In my
life."—London Tit-Bits.
What They Expected.
"Mi, better lock up the bathroom
and get out the old wooden tubs."
"Why. pa—"
"And bide the phonograph and those
seven-dollar records."
"For goodness sakee—"
"And while you're at tt you'd better
put sway your fancy dishes and get
out those old blue things you hate
so."

HUBBY GOT THE GOODS, BUT—
It Was In the First Flush of the Hon-
eymoon, and He Says
"Never Agslni"
"Never again," was the conclusion
of a story told by a young bridegroom
of a month, after he related his ef-
forts to please his bride by fulfilling
her every wlBh.
Sitting in his office a few days after
the wedding he received a telephone
call which was something like this:
"Dearie, I do so hate to trouble you,
but 1 have run out of lace for that
dres6 I was making, and I can't finish
It until I have another yard. Can't
you stop at the store and get some as
you come home—Oh, I can tell you
what it is like—just four leaves, then
a sprig, then four leaves, then a sprig,
and bo on—It's Just two threads over
an inch wide."
He hung up the receiver and mopped
his brow. He walked by the store
twice, finally entered and approached
the lace counter. She was pretty, but
he had been married only a week and
was busy repeating in his mind:
"four leaves, then a sprig."
"Well, after looking at 600 samples
of lace, 1 got it, but—"—Indianapolis

Big Stone Bounded Off Irishman, but
Killed Polander, Who "Couldn't
Stand Much."
Representative Michael B. Conry of
New York used to be employed in the
coal mines of Pennsylvania. One
morning aa he was going to work he
met another Irishman all fixed up In
hi« Sunday clothes.
"What's wrong?" asked Conry.
"Nothin* wrong," answered the other
laborer.
"But what's happened T"
"Nothln's happened. A man's got to
show some respect for the dead."
"What dead?"
"Oh, that Polander I worked with
died yesterday."
"What did he die of?"
"A rock fell and hit him."
"You don't sayl How big a rock was
itr
"Oh, three or four tons, maybe.
Them Polanders can't stand much. I
purty near got hurt myself yester-
day."
"How was that?"
"The rock that killed the Polander
hit me first, but luckily it bounced off,"

Picture of "HolleMng Jones" at Fa-
vorite Diversion Caused Him
to Reform.
A well-known illustrator, who makes
Interesting western pictures, once
made the acquaintance of a noisy but
good-humored cowboy who rejoiced In
the appellation of "Hollering Jones."
In physical appearance this man was
typical of his kind, and the artist made
several studies of him, both In re-
pose and in bis favorite diversion of
"hollering." Some of the studies were
sold by the artist to an eastern maga-
alne. They showed Jones In his most
violent state.
A year later the artist again visited
the region. He was Boon approached
by Mr. Jones himself, bearing one of
the pictures, which he had torn from
the magazine In which it was printed.
Pointing to It, he asked:
"Is that me?"
"Well," replied the artiet evasively,
"I got the general Idea from you. of
course, but—"
"Oh, I ain't takln' no offense," Jones
made haste to say. "It's all right; only
If it's me, say so."
"If you put it to me that way," said
the artist, "I can only reply that It is
a fairly good portrait of you."
"The men here on the ranch agree
with you. So I look like that when I
holler, do 1?"
"I think you do."
"In that case," said Hollering Jones,
"all I've got to say Is that Hollering
Jones hae hollered his last holler.
Hereafter, when I celebrates, 1 does
so with a tin horn. In my own opin-
ion, no man has a right to look like
that—not round white folks, anyhow."

Very Striking, Indeed.
Representative Wagner, at a picnic
In a charming glen on the outskirts of
Waco, advised a group of young ladles
to svoid the International marriage.
"You've heard, no doubt," he said,
with a smile, "of Lotta Golde.
"Lotta was running down interna-
tional marriages.
" 'They're all alike,' she said. 1
have had three husbands. The first.
Lord Lacland, slapped me. The sec-
ond, Comte L'Olgnon, slashed me with
a dog-whip. Prince Spaghetti, the
third, hit me on the head with his fist.
This proves that between all interna-
tional marriages there exists a strik-
ing, a very striking, resemblance.''
Some Weather.
College boys who put money in their
purses by toil In Kansas wheat fields
will not be discouraged by this story:
"I think 1 smell burning meat," said
the farmer, as he paused for a momont
in the harvest field to mop his brows.
"You do," said the raw harvest hand,
wearily, as he stooped to get a couple
more sheaves of golden grain. "The
burning meat you smell is my liver
frying. It is overdone." And with
that the young fellow spat on a grass-
hopper and scalded it to death."—At-
lanta Constitution.
Perfectly Natural.
As Herbert Cory tells It, he went to
a dinner once where Andrew Carnegie
was a guest.
"After the eating was over and the
speechmaklng had started," said
Corey, "Mr. Carnegie reached in his
pocket for something and pulled out
a handfull of smal change. A dime
got away from him and fell on the
floor, and at the first chsnce Mr. Car
negie got down under the table and
looked for It."
"Did be find it?" asked one of the
audience to whom Corey was narrat-
ing the Incident.
"Did he find It?" echoed Corey. "He
found 16 cents!"—Saturday Evening

Woman Deserved 8harp Retort.
A white Pomeranian escaped from
the arms of Its mistress in Surf ave-
nue, Coney Island, the other night and
ran in front of an automobile. A
newsboy darted after the dog. caught
It, and then fell in a mud puddle. He
lost a doxen or so of papers but held
on to the dog, which he returned to its
owner slightly soiled.
"You Impudent little scamp!" said
the woman. "What made you get the
dear little dog so dirty. You ought to
be whipped."
"I am mighty glad I didn't save your
life," replied the boy, and a score of
onlookers applauded him.

kept to amuse his employer's chil-

The donkey was following the farm-

"I think that donkey is taking a lik-

"Och," said Pat, "shure and it's not
