object to the eight-hOur day from
business point OF view; but merely be-
cause they have become accustomed to

this way Of being studied fastened its
claws into his back and refused all
attempts to make it let go, and the
more they tried to get him off the
harder he pinched, and from the

let folks in the Car hear it on Christ

had became popular at one time,
called "D0wn Went McGinty." but
it was ineXpressibiy sweet.
Soon those IN the Car began to rea.
lize that the music Was right in that
car, and at last, after the little had
fidgeted anoIt il lot, half of those in
the car discovered the musical chair
and began to laugh, while the other
half rose from their seats and wond-
cred what it Was all about.
The man who owned the chair
stood looking straight ahead with IL

Her escort bit his lip ami looked
at the owner OF the chair as if he
