THE SURPRISE PARTY Slnglefoot Is -going tb celeV_/ bra to his golden wedding tomorrow," said the assessor ; "we, are planning to give him a surprise party, and would, like you to go along" *-ag roe there with a

team of government mules." re- , plied the village | patriarch. "About the meanest trick you can play a man, | Is to spring a surprise party on him. j Of course the ma- I Jorlty of surprise parties are fakes. Tlie victim has i been Informed in I advance that he Is going to be ambushed upon a certain date, and he tain uaie, anu ne

s makes his preparations accordingly, e Then when the Visitors arrive at his ■ abode he pretends to be Immensely I. astonished, and says he never dreamed of such a visitation ; but the fact that . he Is wearing his Sunday shirt, and L has his hflr parted In the middle, the lie to all hl§ protestations. "There Is no serious objection to a ' '• surprise party when' the victim Is * ■ warned In advance, although, as I have j shown. It encourages skullduggery and e | hypocrisy, for no inan can be thor- ' • j oughly ' honest who pretends amnze- ■ ,i ment over a visit he has been plan- ! nlng for. "Bot the genuine surprise party Is ■ an outrage, and people who resort to ' 3 | It should be severely punished. There's > nothing more humiliating to a self- : respectlng-man than to have a whole » neighborhood blow Into bis dwelling ; when he Isn't looking for It , "When I am at home I sacrifice ] 3 everything to personal comfort I take olf my shoes and collar and neck- ' tie, and roll up my shirtsleeves and : ' slip my suspenders down over my - aans. I don't care how I look if I am ' feellug at ease. If I am expecting ; visitors. I go to my boudoir and fix S • myself up so I look like a bridegroom, s , My wife has theories, similar to mine, " . and doesn't believe In being arrayed | , In purple and fine linen all the time. But she wouldn't be seen 'ooking sloucby for anyiblog. "Some months ugo my wife casually remarked to a neighbor that my blrthI day would occur on ihe following i Wednesday, and that neighbor. bOing • , a confirmed busybody, got busy and I ( organized a surprise party. I never i received" the faintest hint of the 1 scheduled.- catastrophe, and on the 1 evening of my birthday I was lying on the floor of the sitting room, with I about a hundred newspapers around me. My wife was wearing an old"' | wrapper, and was popping corn on the kitchen stove. There was nobody "else . j In the house, and we had no idea visitors wonld come, for it was a bad night. ' "About eight o'clock, just when I was thinking of going to beflf-there was a knock at the front door. My wife thought It was some boy on an errand so she1 went to the door with a 1 stovehook In one hand, and the corn popper to the other, and she .gave a " shriek of anguish when she saw the mass meeting on the front porch. The minute the door was open aH those 7 delegates pushed themselves In. smiling and giggling as though they were doing something mighty fnnny. ; "Our house ha'dn't been to such dls- - ' order In twenty years. It looked as v though a couple of amatenr teams bad been playing basketball In It My _ wife and I began apologizing and ex- y plaining, as people will do under such conditions, although they know that nobody will believe what they say; the guests assured ns that It Was all - right bat I could see them squinting around and making mental notes for future reference, and'lnslde of a. week " the story, was all ever town -Unit- our house was a fright and no respectable cow conld live to It "That was the most miserable eventog I ever spent my friends, and I - have never forgiven the people who took part to th«t uprising. And yon may be sure Til never treat another as I was treated." , b Lest Note Redeemed. 1 A soldier pysen ted- himself at the " commonwealth treasury to Melbourne, Australia, and said, "I am a 20-pound 1 note and-, want to be cashed." He - stated that he had swallowed the note at Fleorbalx when be expected be captured. He remembered the number, ayd the note to question turned out to be the poly, one missing from a particular Issue which had been recalled. - A Bad Crash.
