CASE OF NECESSITY.
William F. McCombs the well-
known Democratic politician, re
lates the following :
Little Tommy had a very pretty
sister, f'retty sister had a very
devoted admirer. One evening
when the devoted admirer was sil
ling in the parlor wailing for sister
to appear, he was approached by
little Tommy.
Say, Mr. Smith, rather point
edly queried the youngster, "do
you love sister Jenny t
"Why, Tommy I" was the
amazed response of the blushing
Mr. Smith. X by do you ask
nie a question like thai ?"
"l'.ecause," was the quick re
joinder of the youngster, "she said
last night that she would give $5
to know, ami I need the money,"

Morning breaking on the hills the curtain's going up !
Sun'll drink the world's health from the lily's brimming cup,
And in ill e woodland theater the rarest joys we'll win,
The morn'll shine the bright lights the world-show will begin !
A glad orchesira's playing
The music wants no words;
Joyous introductory
Concert of the birds.
The velvet vales are lifelike, the meadows are alive,
The bee from brightening blossoms drains the honey for ihe hive;
The gardens breathe in beauty, in gorgeous raiment dressed,
The hills seem heaven-kissed altars, by Priests of Morning blessed.
I Iill and field and valley,
Glen and waterfall,
The Movies of the Morning,
At the Master-Artist's call.
See the moving pictures? 'Tis now no world of dreams;
Cattle seek the pastures, roads rumble with the teams;
Girls that gather violets the kinfolk of the sky,
And barefoot boys a-splashing in the brooks that glimmer by.
Are we not in l.oveland
A world of blossom sweet,
The glory of the Morning
Where F.arih and Heaven meet ?
And the Movies of ihe Morning breathe peace to battle-strife;
We are learning from the lilies all the litanies of life;
That a Heaven still bends above us where stars of Morning meet,
Home, and the beans that love us in a world that's Heaven-sweet !
World of beam and blossom
In colors brave and grand,
Life's living morning-pictures
By the Master-Artisi's Hand.

club, and for a while everything
was lovely.
'Louise," asked the husband of
one ot ihe members upon Iter re

discussion by the club this alter
noon ?"
Louise could not-just remember

claimed; - -
"Now, 1 recoiled! We discuss
