"The presumptuousness of some peo-
pie is past endurance, remarked lady
recently in conversation. 81 allowed
my little girl to spend an afternoon
with friend, and when she returned
her little ears had been pierced, and
pair of earrings hung in them. l
looked upon it as an unwarranted piece
of impertinence, and the present of the
earrings did not reconcile me to it in
the least"
"That reminds me-" said another
lady, 'of my experience with meddlers
for can not call them anything else.
| sent my little daughter out to walk
with friend who, because the child
complained of slight toothache, took
her to dentist, and had two of her
baby teeth pulled When l remon-
strated, she said she had paid the bill.
1t was the loss of the teeth, and the
fact that anybody dare NEEDLE with
my privileges, that l regretted Who
could forgive such stupidity?'
Another lady told her story:
my father sent me IL very fine hunt,
ing dog, which n friend offered to bring
through puppyhood for me. saw the
dog occasionally, and he was getting to
be a beauty, when one day my friend
walked in and handed me, with very
triumphant air, two ten-dollar bills.

A FOOLISH SAYING.

But think tits very foolish
To speak In such way
And I'd like TO ask the reason,
Forsooth, how II can be,
The world should owe living
To either you or met
Tis very silly saying,
And only those who shirk
Would expect TO get living
From other peoples work.
And I'd really like 10 ask them
For II puzzles me as yet
just how the world has happened
TO get into their debt'
II they DO their share Of labor,
They may claim their share OF ease;
But drones are out OF favor,

And ia like TO tell them plainly

That our busting world Is honest,
And owes no man cent

THE "MIssING WORD" CRAZE.
Explanation of the Newspaper Scheme
That Has Been Pronounced Illegal.
From, the NeD York Sun.


From the NeD York Sun.
The magnitude of the missing word"
craze, which is previously affecting all
England and the remotest parts of the Brit
ish isles is astounding. II has devastated
the money order branch of the government
and spread desolation through the whole
Dostoffice service. The memory of the
spelling bee fantasy has faded away In COM
parison. The visible results of the craze
have been such that IL has become public
nuisance, and the public prosecutor is en-
gagged in an effort to suppress IL.
The missing word craze, game, or what
ever it may be called, is this: A sentence
is printed every week from which che last
word is omitted, as "Bill Smith is a -"
and the public is invited to write upon a
coupon printed Ia the paper what they
think the missing word Is, and 10 send in
their guess with a money order for a shil-
ling. The aggregate shillings so sent in are
divided among the guessers who strike the
correct word. It was invented by the pro-
prietor OF nondescript publication which
Is but two years old. The idea has sent up
the circulation to over 500, 900 week, 200,-
0O0 copies a week being credited to the miss
ing word idea In the past Two months.
Other publications adopted the device, and
q mouth ago the craze swept over the I'M
happy land like blizzard. Two weeks ago
the paper first mentioned received and dis
tributed over S35, 900 received in shillings
for guesses. One week there were but forty
three correct guessee, and each Of the lucky
guessers received $3.50 in return for his
shilling. IL was estimated a week ago that
some $40, 900 in shillings was sent TO the
various papert running the scheme. The
money orders at many postofiices have all
been used up, the reserve supply is low, the
mails are clogged, and the end is yet afar off.
Clubs and syndicates are formed, pooling
guesses aud prizes. Some individuals send
10 a score or two Of guesses and shilliDgs.
The craze has invaded the church fairs. the
clubs, aud even the exchanges and business
houses
The business has added a new depart
ment, employing over 200 people, TO the
paper which originated the scheme. An
immense cupboard filing tue space OF a
doorway Is the letter box. A stream Of

and on the day the competitions close the
mail comes from the postofi1oe in q process
sion OF cabs. A hundred and fifty girls are
employed in the sorting room Of the paper
They are all provided by the Young
Woman's Christian Association and receive
the excellent pay OF so shillings a week.
Every day from 9 to 5 o'clock these girls do
nothing but open letters and sort out money
orders and guesses The guess coupons 20
to another room, and here dozen young
women are doing q most remarkable
thing. Each one Is intrusted for
q whole day ahead of the rest OF the world
with the secret OF the missing word, ~ and
they are engaged in the stupendous task Of
keeping a secret. They 60 through the piles
of guesses and winnow out the correct
guesses This is somewhat monotonous
work when there are but forty correct
guesses out Of 100000. In yet another
room eight clerks are employed sorting and
counting money orders and arranging them
for presentation at the postoffice to De
dashed. One of the girls has a record Of
correctly tabulating 1900 orders In an
hour. Some $4,000 in money orders 90
through this mill every week, and half a
dozen clerks are employed signing" them
with rubber stamps.
The proprietor Of the paper writes the
sentence, and he alone knows the word until
the competition Is closed. He writes it on q
paper, Wnlcn, lnciosed ID sealed envelope,
is placed In charge of public notary until
the competition is closed. Lots of queer as-
tempts are made to learn thu word from
him. Some have wanted to know how
much a week he would want FOR disclosing
the word. Many pitiful appeals reach him
from people in sore straits, who want 70
know the word as a means Of escape from
their pecuniary troubles.
The public prosecutor has secured a sum-
mons against the proprietors Of one paper
using the device, and the case Is to come up
for trial this week He claims that il is a
gambling scheme, because no skill is in
volved in finding the missing word. Bill
Smith might be any thing. aud guessing not
skill, is involved in hitting the word which
tells what the proprietor OF the paper thinks
he is. The proprietor of the paper leading
in the movement saws he has the opinions Of
two most distinguished counsel that the
scheme is not q lottery nor q gambling do
vice. Meanwhile the craze IA slowly eating
up the energy and life OF the people, and
what the end will be no man can prophecy
For the sake OF this nations prosperity and
sanity however, something should be done
to prevent its slighting on these shores, aud,
IL DR.. Jenkins cannot cope with it, kindly
providence might flttingly be appealed to.

was hurt very much, but after census had been

the explosion had landed him. He sat in lodge
