Herb Fooled Them
H. J. Anderson
The majority of folks get a big kick out of surprise acts in vaudeville, and one of these lvas pulled off on the evening of the Osirian Cloister dinner and dance at the HooIfoo Annual which had most of the men and a few of the ladies fooled for a while.
This was a vocal number entitled "On Top of the Fence", by Madame Felina Catcuss of Catawba, Russia.
Introcluced by the chairman, C. D. Lel\Iaster, the stunningly gorvned Russian Opera star sang "IJntil" in a fine soprano. The singer then voluntarily gave the s,how away by responding to the encore in his natural voice, and the word quickly rvent around thatthe female impersonator rvas the well knorvn Portland lumberman, Herbert J. A"derson. I{is second encore number was a difficult soprano operatic number which brought great applause, and the remark from an Eastern visitor that, "This boy can take Julian Eltinge's place any time he gets tired of the lumber business."

The Test of a Man
The place to take the true measure of a man is not the forum or the field, not the market-place or the Amen corner, but at his own fireside. There he lays aside his mask and you may judge whether he's imp or angel, king or cur, hero or humbug. I care not what the world says of him; whether it crown him with bay, or pelt him with bad eggs; I care never a copper what his reputation or religion may be; if his babes dread his home-coming and his better half has to swallow her heart every time she has to ask him for a five dollar bill, he's a fraud of the first water, even though he prays night and morn till he's black in the face, and howls hallelujah till he shakes the eternal hills. But if his children rush to the front gate to greet him, and love's own sunshine illumines the face of his wife when she hears his footfall, you may take it for granted that he's true gold, for his home's a Heaven, and the humbug never gets that noar the great white throne of God. I can forgive much in that fellow mortal who would rather make men swear than women weep; who would rather have the hate of the whole he-world than the contempt of his wife; who would rather call anger to the eyes of a King than fear to the face of a child.-William
Cowper Brann.
The Dividing Lines
At a colored country dance in Arkansas, when the fiddlers had taken their places and resined their bows, the manager rose.
"Git yo' partners fo' a cotillion," he shouted. "All yo' ladies an' gemmen wid shoes an' stockin's take yo' place in de middle ob de flo'. All yo'ladies an gemmen wid shoes an' no stockin's, take yo' places immejitly behin' dem.. An' all yo' barefoot niggahs yo' jes' jig it roun' in de corners."
Just A Little Comma
What a wonderful different a misplaced comma makes. In a recent religious controversy, a man wrote to his local newspaper as follows: "We do not care to enter into any religious controversy. Our works speak for themselves. We are healing the sick, and sinning in wonderful ways." The comma should have been after "sinning" but it wasn't.
And Nobody Else A-Tall
"Rastus, who is dat solvent lookin' gen'man speculatin' up an' down de aisles wid dem gold rimmed obstacles?"
"Don' yuh organize him?"
"No,Ah don' organize him. Ah's nevah been induced to hirn-"
"I'se franchised yuh don' organize him. He's de mos' confiscated man in dis whole diaphragm. Dat's de ngw pastute of our chu'ch."
Fellowship
When a man ain't got a cent, An' he's feeling kind of blue, An' the clouds hang dark and heavy, An' won't let the sunshine through, fts a great thing, O my brethren, For a feller just to lay, His hand upon your shoulder
In a friendly sort of way.
It makes a man feel queerish; It makes the tear-drops start; An' you sort o' feel a flutter
In the region of your heart.
You can't look up and meet his eyes; You don't know what to say;
Wherr his hand is on your shoulder
In a friendly sort of way.
O, the world's a curious compound, With its honey and its gall, With its care and bitter crosses, But a good world after all. And a good God must have made it, Leastwise that is what I say, When a hand is on your shoulder
In a friendly sort of way.
-James Whitcomb Riley.
More Storm When She Gets Home
Wife-"I want to go down town and get a new hat, some frocks and a pair of slippers. What is the weather forecast ?"
Hubby-"Rain, hail, sleet, snow, frost and thunderstorms."
Heard In Bakersfield
"Dad, here comes a gang of girls up the road dressed in funny pants."
"What ! Knickers?"
"No, P2-1hey're white folks."
Ball: "So you've cured your wife of the antique craze. How did you do it?"
Crank: "It was easy. I gave her a 1908 model automobile for her birthday."
Never strike a man when he's down I you can't tell how big he'll be when he gets up.
FROM THE.JUNK PILE
A bouncing, a jouncing, A leak and a lack.
A bumping, a jumping, A knock in the back. A creaking,.a cracking, A bolt and a jar.
A dashing, a smashing, A helluva car !
Please Examine the Reinforcements in the Miller
Swinging around turns with a centrifugal force bearing laterally against the wheels, bumping over rough boards in the yard, the Miller gives satisfaction where weakly constructed carriers fall down.
If you have an eye for mechanics, you can see in the reproduction how the arch principle is employed to keep the Iegs rigid and to avoid side spread between the wheels.
When the Miller picks up its load, it has it and it has it firmly. The operator's wholeattention can be focused on making time with his load and does not have to keep on"tenter-hooks" wondering whether or not his load is going to be dropped en route.
The Miller is constructed to do the work dependently and quickly. Write us for specifications and accurate description of the Millerthe original gas lumber carrier.
