824 MARKET STREET. But He Wanted the Mtsnnmt Opened on Sundays. Washington "Say, mister, have you ever been up In that place?" said a boy, probably 16 or IB years old, auureBsmg a huuusisi of tho Walt line ears. The car was Just passing the monument lot. and the boy pointed to the shaft as he spoke.

'What's it llker he asKea. nis nrst question having been answered In tho af firmative. I should think a boy like you would have been there for yourself." replied the stranger. I've been thinking about it tor a long time." replied the boy, ana guess i do it. When I go by in the morning it looks so big and strange standing in the mist, with Just a little sunlight, on tne top.

Then when i come i iuksuj dark and the great white shaft stands out against the sky. I always look at it, and I want to go in it and get away up in tne top. Some of these days I'll do it. Do you think I could make it in half an hour, I might stand to have my pay docked for hAif on hour. But I'm afraid that if I got up there I might stay longer and then I'd be short of money to pay my board that week.

I go there Sundays and walk around it sometimes, but It's shut then. Say, do you know, mister, I believe that if George Washington was living he would have that open for a little while on Sundays and holidays. I've been thinking that maybe it might be open a while on Thanksgiving Day. If it ain't I'll go there some day, anyhow, and get docked for it" "Where do you work?" asked the stran-er. "Down here In a sawmill.

Tou see, I get only $4 a week, and two of that has to go for board. But I've been to manual training school and can turn.and I think they'll put me on a lathe soon. Then I'll get more money. If I don't see it before that. I can then afford to be docked for long enough to see the monument.

Don't you think they ought to let us in on holidays? I've been here six months. The first two days I had nothing to do, and I saw the Capitol and something else, but I was a stranger and didn't know where to go then. I got work and have had no time No, of course, I don't go to school, but the folks I board with take the Star and let me have that when they are through. I read those things mat inter est me. things." and get a pretty good idea of The Cigarette in Diplomacy.

Illustrated American. An attache of one of the legations in Washington said to me the other day: "Diplomacy couldn't get along without the cigarette. For hundreds of years ambassadors used the snuff box as a discourager of impulsiveness and temper. You can't think of Talleyrand, for instance, without his precious snuff box. Recall the paintings and prints of the ptctnreeque old fellow; he seemed to be always offering a pinch of snuff to some other smirking chap.

When passions became strained, or things that ought not to be said were likely to be forced out by a sly remark of one's adversary, or an unexpected situation developed, the passing of srauff always gained time. The cigarette does the same business now. The cigar is too big and too heavy for many irun. but the cigarette is dainty and harm less, and if it does anything, it steadies tne nerve for the time. It is a graceful thing to offer: it affords a chance for a polite smile; it helps a fellow to get an impassive face: and most of all it makes him careiui In speech.

Why tho world never will know how often even war has been averted ty tho rio-anA There is always a war of ilimlrmats before the open war ot nations, and that little roll of tobacco has again and attain during the last ten years been a spell of peace among ambassadors when irrita- tlnmi had eot the better of tnem ana any moment might hear the irrevocable words which would nreclpitate war. All the sen sitiveness of a whole nation is sometime Hnirline in the person of its one ambassa dor during a critical interview, and I could tell you strange stories, were 1 at iioerty, which I have gathered among the diplo matic corps of various capitals of how international anger has been soothed by the smoke of a. cigarette. She Could Joke, Too. Washington Star.

A Washington man connected with the publishing business is fond of a practical 1oke and has likewise a constant and un changeable ambition to "show off" in the presence of his wife. Recently he was at a gathering of men where a well-known specimen of his favorite kind of humor was employed to aid in the merry-making. The next morning at breakfast he said very gravely "Susan, it has been a long time since I gave you anything as a token of my af fectionate esteem." "I need a winter wrap," she suggested, gently. "We will think of that later. WThat mean to give you now Is a diamond ring." "Right now?" she exclaimed.

"Yes," he answered, as he dived into hla nocket "Here's a dime and here (touching the servant's bell) is a ring. There you have a dime and ring." Then he said "Ha-ha!" at the top of his voice many times. He was rather tired when he got home that evening. "Is there any dessert?" he inquired. after he had eaten all that had been placed before him.

"Yes," she answered. "It is something that I am sure you ought to appreciate. I went out and had it especially prepared for you." She took from the sideboard and placed before him a small card, upon which was printed. "Mcine." "What's this?" he inquired, as he held it off and Btared at it. "That." she replied, sweetly, "Is mince pie." Bpssnv Ccrr Trkhtjisnt for tortorlng, dlsflg-nrin.

RED ROUGH Do Not be Alarmed, lint Look For the Cain. Heart 'troubles, at least among Americans, are certainty increasing and while this may be largely due to the excitement and worry of American business life, it is more often the result of weak stomachs, of poor digestion: Real, organic heart disease is incurable; but not one case in a hundred of heart trouble is organic. The close relation between heart trouble and poor digestion is because both organs axe controlled by branches of the same great nerves, the Sympathetic and Pneumo-gsstric. In another way, also the heart is affected by that form of' poor digestion, which causes gas and fermentation from half digested food; there is a feeling of oppression and heaviness In the chest caused by pressure ot the distended stomach on the heart and lungs, interfering with their action; hence arises palpitation and short breath. Poor digestion also poisons the blood, makes It thin and watery, which Irritates and weakens the heart.

The most sensible treatment for heart troubles is to Improve the digestion and to insure the prompt assimilation ot food. This can. best be done by the regular use after meals, of some safe, pleasant and ef fective digestive preparation, like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may ba found at most drug stores and which contain valuable, harmless digestive elements. In a pleasant, convenient form. It is safe to say that the regular, persis tent use of Stuart Dyspepsia Tablets at meal time will cure any form of stomach trouble, except cancer, of stomach.

Full sized packages of the tablets sold by druggists at 60 cents. Little book on stomach troubles mailed free. Address Stuart Marshall, Mich. PAYING A BIG FORGOTTEN DEBT. Amos F.

A specimen of clever wit was given by a waitress in a Winter street restaurant the other day. A middle-aged woman entered the place and, taking a seat at the counter, carefully scrutinized the bill of fare. She concluded to try an oder of ice-cream pudding at five cents a plate. After it had been served she looked it over carefully, and, calling the waitress back, said: "Do you call this ice-cream pudding?" "Yessum, and it's very nice, too." "But where is the ice cream?" "Oh, that's only the name given that peculiar make of pudding. We are making a drive on it.

I'm sure you will like It when you taste it." "It seems to me that you ought to give ice cream with it as long as you call it ice-cream pudding." "We don't give cottages with cottage pudding," quickly replied the witty waitress, which threw the middle-aged woman Into a convulsion of laughter and she ordered a second plate. 50c. to Baltimore, 50c. to Philadelphia, $1.50 to Washington, Sunday, Nov. 28, B.
