JOHNNY'S CAREER.
Tfc* Same That Was Started b/ the
Cornell Widow.
Sheer nonsense rhymes and Jokes
without appar ut reason or object are
frequently used to fill the pages of the
Cornell Widow. If anything more foot
less than the "Man of Glegledorf"
Terse has ever been written, the Wid
ow wishes to state that her bump of j
credulity was Imported frora Missouri
and must be shown:
There was a man from Glegledorf
Who. to save his barber's fees. .
Would wet hts hair end let It freese.
And when 'twas frosen break It off.
The Widow claims the credit of orig
inating the nonsense r'i.\.aes which
dealt with the cleverness a> d t-. ococlty
of the bright little lad vb > u . ??lessly
slaughtered his mother, tatiier and im
mediate relatives. These poems. If so
they may Ik> eatled. appeared In the
Widow in October aud November. 1900.
The same year they were collected and
published In p&mphlet form under the
tjHme of "The Johuny Book." Johnny
started his career by "nu tragedy" as
follows:
Johnny hung his Uttle slater.
She was dead before they missed h*r.
Johnny's alius up t' tricks.
Ain't he cute?? he's only six.
Next we find that?
Johnny with his llttls ax
Dealt his brother orful wacka.
Ke don't care If mamma kicks.
Ain't he cute?? ho's only six.'
Later development of the little romp
?hows that?
John has gone from bad to worse.
Now his father's In a hearse.
Smeared him with a Mad of bricks.
Ain't he cute?? he's only six.
Aud so <>u uutil finally?
Johnny saw a buzzs&w buzz
Like a blt:e and thought It wua.
Johnny's corpse Is full of nicks.
Ain't he cute?? he's only six.
These verses terminated the Widow's
connection with John, but papers all
over the couutry took up his instruc
tive and edifying career and pushed
It to a finish. Still another verse which
started in the Widow office and trav
eled all over this country and part of
others was the bit of "Eb and Flo"
doggerel. In this we discover that?
Flo was fond of Ebenexer?
Fb. for short, she called her beau.
Tusk of "tides of love!" Great Cn-ear!
You should see 'em, Eb and Flo.
By itself this beautiful bit could
hardly claim u place in a volume of
great American poets, but when It
traveled far and wide and received an
extra verse at each resting place it be
came a pursuing nlgatmare. ? From

MADE IT RIGHT.
Y?t It W*? iVoi Eaoy ~or tho Satatrrutr
to Grasp ths Boss' Scheme.
la one of tbe suburbs of Loudo-i
there is a wholesale tlrtu tbe senior
member of which ffiaf .be known as
Mr. Blank. Tbe tins has rwo^truvellDg
wlesmen? a single man. receiving SO
?hillings per week, nnJ the other a
married man. drawing ?2 per week.
A. abort time ago tbe single man, be
ing in the 9bop a ad looking over mat
ters, discovered that tbe married sales
man wes receiving 10 shillings per
week more salary than himself, while
he (the single man) was selling more
goods. He called Mr. Blank's atten
tion to this and suggested that, as he
was selling more than the other fel
low, he should at least receive as inucb
pay.
The senior partner acknowledged the
apparent lnc insistency and assured his
man that ho would look Into It and If
the statemei ? were correct he would
rnako matter-* right
Another w -ek rolled by. uud when
the sfakgle m m camo to draw his sal
ary from tb ' bookkeeper ho was sur
prised to tin 1 only 90 shillings passed
out to blm t ie same as before. He de
murred. Th.? bookkeeper Insisted be
had received no Instructions to raise I
his pay and referred him to the gov
ernor. Approaching Mr. Blank, he
said:
"You remember, sir. I spoke to you
last week about my salary, stating |
that while I was selling more goods ,
than the other traveler, I was recelv- ,
lng less pay. aud I thought I should
receive as much as he did. You assur
ed me you would look Into It and make
matters right"
"Yes," said Mr. Blauk, "I remember
yoqr mentioning tbe matter, and I
made It right, didn't I?"
"Why, no; I don't see how you. have,
as the bookkeeper has just paid me
the -same amount as before. I can't see
how that Is making It right, sir."
"You don't understand," said the
senior partner. "I have made it right.
You thought you ought to have us
much pay as tbe other man, and 1
have made It right by cutting the other
fellow's pay dowu."? Loudon Tlt-Blts.
THE ENCORE HABIT.
How 8im? Reeves Turned the Tables I
on One o,f Hit Admirer*.
Slum Reeves, who In his day was ac- 5
celled as the most celebrated tenor on .
the eoncert ? stage, was so much of a
favorite that w henever he sang he was
usually greeted with a hearty encore,
accompanied with enthusiastic cheers.
Reeves was very good uaturod about
the matter, but he made it a rule never
to sing more thnn one selection when
he felt that his voice was not in first
class shape. He happened to notice
that an elderly man, who turned out |
to be a dealer In bats along the Strand,
Loudon, attended nearly every concert
within convenient dlstauce If SLais
Reeves happened to be oh the bill and
generally led the encore brigade. This
hatter was a persistent person and of
ten applauded until he had forced
Reeves to respond to double aud triple
encores.
Determined to teach the little hatter
a lesson, one afternoon just as dark
wis approaching Reeves entered his
admirer's store and said, "One hat.
please," naming the particular shape
whlcfi he doslred. The little hatter
didn't recognize the gr??t tenor and
handed out one hat.
"Good," said Reeves. "How much
la this hatr
"Five shillings." said the store pro
prletor.
"En co re," s&id Reeves.
A. seooad bat was forthcoming, and
Reeves ultimately obtained three "en
cere" hats. When the little hatter de
manded ?1 sterling for the purchases
Reeves pretended to be furious.
"Send theee four hats to this ad
dress," ordered the tenor In terrible
tone, "but I only pay for one bat. Po
you understand? The three other hats
are 'encore' hats. If you make me alng
songs for nothing you must send me
hats for nothing."
The little hatter was speechless.?
