stood in a row in front of the old 1
woman, raving never a word, hut
wulchui£ her face. The -mile bright*
Cited, lingered, then sudilenh laded

apron went up to m ipo a tear. i lien
11<«• eldest child stepped forward and
u*kcd:
"Are you porrv because you have
not got any children!'"
"1—I had children once, but they
nrc all d-dead," whispered the wom-
an, a soh in her throat, "I'm awful

quiwri "d 'ive you one of my
little bro r 1 hut you see I

"God bless you, child--bless you
fcrever," sobbed the o'd woman, and
for a full minute her face was bur-
ied in her apron.
"Hut I'll tell you what I'll do,"
seriously continued the child. "You
may kiss us all once, and if little
Benny isn't afraid you may kiss
linn four times, for he's jusft as
sweet as candy."
Pedestrians who saw three well
<1 rested children put their arms
around that strange old woman's
reck and kiss her were greatly puz-
zled. They did not know the hearts
of children, and they didn't hear
the woman's words as she rose to
go:
"Oh. children, I'm only n poor old
woman, believing I'd nothing to live
for, but you've given me a lighter
luurt than J'\e had f<>r ten long
years."—Detroit Free I'ro-s.
The Game of Boston.
An improvement on blind man's
buff is the game of l'oston, in
which all the player- ar seated ex-
cept the "blind man," who stands in
the center of the room. Kadi one
has a number, and tne blind man
call- out, "Xos. 2, ?. 1.1, <!. change
seats!" Then the aforesaid num-
ber- creep stealthily about, avoiding
the blind man, who tri« s to catch
some one. If he succeed.-, he must
jpurss whom he has ca edit, and if
lie guesses aright he takes a seat
m 1 the number of the one caught,
who now becomes blind man and
calls out numbers. < ><•«-a-ionallv t he

denounced. The chairman of the

ed the singers and speaker- to the
governor, who in turn presented
them to the audience.
"'Introduce William J. Bryan,'
suggested the chairman to the gov-
ernor when Jinan's turn came.
" 'I have the honor,' said the gov-
ernor, 'to present to you Mr. Wil-

"The governor paused. He did
not seem to know what to say next.
Then he leaned over to Hryan. 'Are
| you a singer or a speaker? he asked.
'1 speak,' said Hryan.
-"'who will now make an ad-
dress,' added the governor as he
again faced the audience with an
air of relief.
"The governor afterward told
Bryan that he had never heard of
him or of the speeches which Hry-
an thought had stiried the entire

mittee has been pe.-tered almost be-
yond endurance with olliceseekers
who want liini to use his influence
to get them placed with the new ad-
ministration. T" secure some relief
he wrote to the lfepiihliciin district
leaders requesting them not to send
I any of their constituents to him, but
to recommend to him such 11s they
weru moot desirous of having ap-
I pointed, and he would see what
! could be done. (>ne of the district

thus saved Holland from inunda-

"I say. Yamlerhilt, I have a jolly

n.i park this afternoon. Don't you
want to make a hazard with me to
^ct some bookmaker's money?"
"I can't afford it." replied the
