THE IIENDE11SON GOLD LEAF THURSDAY, JANUARY 25, 1906. The Gold Leaf. THURSDAY, J AXI'A It V -jr., M)0. Humor and Philosophy By DUNCAN M. SMITH PERT PARAGRAPHS. Affectation J your own jicrsijual re flecliou ui!)U your own ability. Tin- c(ls of oiir purse are apt to n.tnlljy y'-jr vivrf to suit the meuua of lili''. it. W ii.it a woman Jacks in the strength of anii t-hc makes up in the nimbleness of her tongue. When you overhear people Baying, "It is just human nature," you may make sure that they have beeu discuss ing Homebody's disagreeable character istics. Too many people have the aort of bravery lhat varies directly as the sipian; of the distance between them uud difficulty. Von have to e;.-t u early in the morn ing if you jrei ahead of the weather. It isn't hard to estimate how much a man doesn't think of his friends when they come uround looking for an abla bondsman. l'eple who show inordinate pride in their ancestry usually lind it necessary to look backward iu order to find uouitt thlug to take pride in. Could Afford It. With him the wearing of old clothe Was somttliiiit; of a hobby. Although he would, you might suppose, I "refer ones r.'i-w and nobby. Hut still he clung to ancient bags Th;it should have been in carpet rasa. lie aM tlic old ones seemed to him 1-lke frii-nds, so well they fitted. Th".v would not in the social swim, I f:ir. h.tvu been p rmttted. All over them they be re the stamp Of clothes affected by the tramp. For garments that the beggars wear Would hardly hold a candle To them, and. really, you would swear They were a public scandaj, Hut he made friends with every one Uy drcsflng like the ragman's son. Was he so poor he could not buy Some neat and natty raiment. Ami t ould he not. though he might try. Afford to make the payment? Oh. yes; he was a millionaire. And ho he didn't have to care! Ones to Be Affected, P.efore changing the date for the in auguration of president, as has been proposed, it might be well to consult the interested parties or at least to hear what their mothers have to say on the subject. There are iu this country two or three million boys between the ages of four ami nine who are headed straight for the presidency. Nothing can stop them. A fiutuiie teller has assured their mothers to that effect, although the e .lis. cniing ladies knew all about H with .Mt being told. IVrhapr. ii would be no more than sin.pl:- justice to take a referendum of tin s future presidents on the subject, aliii i-itr'i t give them the proper data no lls. y -o'iM oto intelligently it would be iHM i ssarv to send them the dates on wl.i-h the circus would not be iu town iu the year of their inauguration. Too Risky, n e v e r "They take a census in Turkey." "Probably they have iiIiii,y vli has nerve enough to ask tiie sultan if lie is a mar ried man." Why She Expected Him. "Why did you start so when the bell rar.gr" "I thought it might be Jack." "Why. you said you refuse.! him last night when he proposed." "I did; but 1 thought he might b coming to apologize." He Would Be It, "I wouldn't marry yon if you wore the last man in the world," said she Kl'iWu.i piy to his brusque pro posal. "No. I think mjselC taat you wouldn't in that case." returned h reflectively. A man may be both a knave and ft fool, but if he does you a good turu you don't believe him to be either whitS lie Is doing it. The real trouble is not the seavcHy of money, but the inadequacy of the means of getting it. One pec'::iarity about umbrellas Is that they :.re always getting in your way in p:caut weather and are en tirely out of commission on rainy days. THE IMPLEMENT GO. RICHMOND.

When he began the publication of the paper whose phenomenal success brought him i f I fame and fortune, be did not wait for the eope to find out. slowly and gradually, the Inter eating features of his Journal. He forced hla enterprise up i i T i on public attention by a sys tematic lavishneas of ex penditure for advertising which at that time was without precedent or paral lel. Whole pages of daily newspapers were secured at high pricta to blazon forth the merits of his undertak- -Ing From one end of the country to the othr the uames of Bonner and his Ledger were made fa miliar to tbe people by constant repetition. Conservative publishers, jog ging along In the ruts of old routine, prophesied bankruptcy and rain for this unconventional innovator, but Bonner kept on spending a large share of his re ceipts in buying publicity, and those receipts Increased with startling rapidity. Every dollar disbursed in this way brought In more dollars un til Croakers were confounded and pessimists in this particular branch of business silenced by his tremendous success. The lesson is one that is as well worth heeding today as It was .forty years ago. Philadelphia Bulletin. . i m m m ii m i m 1 1 1 1 1' 4.
