Every , day the newsboys prove; I
tnemseives better than ever. Perhaps
you remember about the little news
boy Who started a collection for an
lady's glasses when they fell and
broke in one of New York's crowded
streets. Somehow that incident will
always remain fresh in my memory,
and iiow here's another little lad who
has made a sacrifice.
The other morning ail the papers
told ;ah?ut a .lite, .fellow who meets
the trains at one of the Hudson River
towns and supplies" hisr regular 'cus
tomers with . their paper. TUets 1s
strong competition and ! one day's
neglect of dutis might man a niim
ber of lost customersi; ' -
Biit this little ; lad -was willing to
risk ' losing -his custbmers, and glad
ly sacrificed a day's earnings in
order to devote his energies in an
other direction which he believed
worthy.
R. men of the surround
ing country were to march tlie next
week, and the town was unable to
buy a flag to hang from the grand
stand which they might march un
der. The residents were asked to
contribute what they felt they could,
and 3 this boy was sad because he was
unable to give with the rest.
Finally his patriotic little soul
could- stand it no longer, and for a
whole day he stood at the railroad
station holding a cigar box with a
hole punehed in the top, crying:
"Won't-5 you give something to buy
the soldiers a flag? Won't you help
Come- on now, do yer share."
. Naturally nobody could resist his
appeal, and by eventide he was able
to take a goodly sum to the chair
man of the arrangements, and on the
day of the parads the old soldiers
marched proudly under a beautiful
"Old Glory," while a shabbily dressed
little lad sat in state on the platform.
Somehow such an incident arouses
shame within one that they, too, have
not made some sacrifice for thMr
Just think what it meant
for the little chap to give up an en
tire day when he might have made
money for himself in order to help
purchase a flag for the soldiers.
Oh, friends, I think it a glorious
spirit, and I- believe that it repre
sents the general spirit of our coun
try. Three cheers for the little
newsboy and may his tribe ever increase.

New York, June 6, rlt is quite diffi
cult for a dignified New York magis
trate to keep from exploding With
laughter at times but somehow they
do it. No one has ever heard of one
laughing on rduty. ' The other day a
woman was arraigned in the Jefferson
Market Court.
She was charged with having raised
a lump Upon the eye of the janitor in
I the building where -she lived'. She
was particularly awed by the solem
nity of the court, and giving her ver-
Jsion of the lump development address
ed the magistrate at various times as
"Your Worship," "Your Honor" and
"Your Majesty," with obviously the
greatest of respect.
Finally the janitor, accompanied by
the lump, was called to testify regard
ing some specific details of the case.
He could not talk English nd the
court interpreter was employed; He
listened to' the janitor's tragic story
and began to repeat tile testimony in
English as follows:
"I waa in the cellar when I heard
the dumb-waiter coming down ."
For a moment the woman looked at
the interpreter in amazement. Then
she stood right up and spoke out:
"Your Majesty, listen to that guy
mangle the truth. Holy mackerel, he
Wasn't in the cellar or anywhere near
the house. I never seen that guy be
fore in me life. There was no one in
the cellar but the' janitor. On the lev-
- I el, Your Worship, that guy's awful.
He's raw."

you laughing at my game. If I hear
any more of your impudence, I'll crack
you over the head."

HIS BIT.
(By Thornton W. Burgess.)
He stood at the teller's gilded gate;
Feeble was he and old.
His coat was worn and his trousers
frayed
And he shivered a bit with cold.
He shivered a bit though the day was
warm,
For the blood in his veins was thin.
And the pass-book shook in the with
ered hand
That he slowly thrust' within.
"It isn't much, but it's all I have.
And it's every cent my own.
I want that ye shall take it all
For a Share in the nation's loan.
It's all I have and it's cost me dear;
Got knows how I've worked for it!
But I've heard the call and my
answer's here;
It's a way I can do my bit."
Tbe old man fingered the parchment
stiff
The bond for his hoard of gold.
A pitiful sum it seemed, forsooth.
As a nation's wealth is told.
A light leaped up in his dim blue eyes
And his threadbare shoulders
squared.
There was strength of pride in his very
step '
As into the street he fared.
And wh shall belittle that old man's
Bit?
There is none can surpass his all.
He gave of the strength of bis long lost
youth
When he answered the nation's call.
And the heart of a patriot beat beneatb
That coat that was ill of fit.
Have you of your competence done a
much?
Have you answered and "done your
bit?"
Andrew Carnegie can be seen on
I sunny afternoons sitting out in his
!hijr vard on uiiner Fifth Avenue. There
have been many stories of his health,
but those who see him declare that he
seems as fit as ever. He has been
greatly depressed over his peace plans
but every morning he is up early and
accompanied by a companion goes for
his customary walk around the Central
Park reservoir. His step is steady
and ho seems to take a lively interest
in everything going on about him.
