AN AMERICAN LEGEND.
Tale of the cadi and the Benefac-

Many of the Men HAD contributed Much
to the Happiness of Others. But the
Third Man without Doubt Took
the Cake.

Once upon time the cadi gave out
that he wished to discover and re-

kind during the previous year, and
hundreds of young and old men
gathered abouthim to be questioned.

cadi, "and you will doubtless obtain
the reward. Stand aside, however,
while Iquestion the next.

to the front, you must recall how
Internally hot 1t was all last summer.
There were days and days when the
cobblestones were hot enough to
fry bacon on, and a man might sit
on a lumpof ice and yetfeel that his
toes were redhot. The hot waves
were the talk of the town-in your
palace, at the clubs, on the corners
and YETI pledge you my word, /
never turned to one of your loyal
subjects and inquired If it were hot
enough for him.

"Did you ever pay any attention
to thtosophy, Mr.. Slogo?" she asked,
with deadly sweetness in her tones.
The young man admitted that he
had not.
"oh, it is iustlovely," she contin-
ned. II have often thought how
perfectly charming it would be to
send ones astral self down into the
parlor to entertain while ones real
tired self was sound asleep"
The ticking of the clock became SO
painfully loud that the young man
was forced to look at itand suddenly
discover that it was really growing
so awfully late.-Indianapolis Jour
