That Was Different.
A atern father who had repeatedly
told a young man who was paying bis
addresses to his daughter not to visit
the house again without his permis-
sion, which he never intended to give,
was aurprised when he answered a
ring at the doorbell late one evening
to see the young man waiting on the
step.
"Sir," said he in anger, "didn't I tell
you not to call again, eh, sir?"
"Yes," said the young man. "I
know, but I didn't call to Bee your
daughter. I came on behalf of our
firm about that little bill."
••Oh—er—er—" stammered the stern
father, "call again, will you?"

their support to the former president.
In accepting the nomination, Col.
Roosevelt appealed to the people of
all sections, regardless of party affili-
ations, to stand with the founders of
the new party, one of whose cardi-
nal principles, he said, was to be
"Thou shalt not steal.'
At a later time, probably early in
August, it is intended that a national
convention shall be held.
The formal nomination of Col.
Roosevelt was said to be chiefly for
the purpose of effecting a temporary
organization. Beginning tomorrow
when a call is to be issued for a state
convention in Illinois, the work of
organization will be pushed forward
rapidly, state by state.
Col. Roosevelt, in accepting the
nomination, said he did so on the
understanding that he would willingly
8t«p aside if it should be the desire
of the new party, when organized, to
select another standard bearer
Within 24 hours after the nomina-
tion of Colonel Roosevelt, a call was
issued for an Illinois convention of
Roosevelt supporters, at which a state
organization will be formed. MediU
MoCormick of Chicago said that calls
in other states would be issued in
rapid succession and that within a
few weeks the independent party
would be organized in every section
of the country.
In states in which the organizations
are opposed to Colonel Roosevelt, it
is planned to name entire new tickets,
probably under the emblem of the
progressive party.
The method of operation in the
various states is still to be decided
upon, in such cases the Republican
candidate for state and national of-
fices with exception of president and
vice-president, will be Indorsed, with
the idea of preserving the state Re-
publican organizations which are in
sympathy with the Roosevelt move-
ment.
In such cases an effort will be made
to pledge the delegates for electors
to vote for Roosevelt without regard
to the Republican national ticket.

The First Consideration.
At St. Andrewb some years ago an
old farmer and his plowman were
carting sand from the seashore. They
were behind the target on the rifle-
range, but hidden by a bank of sand
from a party of volunteers, who were
then on foot, at practice. A stray bul-
let struck the plowman on the leg,
and he Immediately dropped, exclaim-
ing: "I'm shot!"
Without more ado the farmer
scrambled up the bank and, waving
his hands to the volunteers, shouted:
"Hey, lads, stop that, will ye?
You've shot a man, and it micht hae
been the horse!"—London Tit-Bits.

"Charley Billingsby always has
something funny to say, no matter

"I know it. He's awful comical."
"I often wonder how he thinks of
the humorous thoughts he has. He's
just perfectly killing. I never heard
him call an umbrella anything but a
bumbershoot."
