always called me Asa never could
remember Amos One day l went out
to see Greeley at Chappaqua about
some newspaper business. The old
gentleman saw me coming as he
stood looking out of the window, and
opened the door himself.
Come in here, Asa, he said, in his
high, mealy tones, as he led me into
a fashion of parlor.

as l was going to remain only mo-
ment laid my hat, gloves and cane
on centre table. Greeley and had
just immersed ourselves in talk
when Mrs. Greeley swept into the room
Now, Mrs. Greeley was what one might
call spirited woman. The moment
she entered the door her eyes fell in
dignantly on my trousseau as I'd piled
1t up-hat, gloves and stick-on the
table. Without q word, and before 1
could speak to her, she wooped ON the
outfit like a hawk, and the next mo-
ment threw them out Of the window.
"Then she left the room, without
pausing for speech, as one who had
taught somebody that the hall was
the place for hats and canes and sim
liar bric-a-brac. was inclined to
get trife hot a man naturally might

cast into the shrubbery. But before

An Independent Lawyer.

A lawyer with his client called one
day at the office of gentlman who is
considered to be one Of the leading men
Of the Philadelphia bar. The lawyer
had an important case and he wanted
to take the legal big gun In as adviser.
He explained his business and said
he and the client would be back in the
afternoon. Il won't be here them"
said the legal giant. Il have an en-
gagement at o'clock and l won't be
here after that hour" But there Is
n $4,000 fee in this for you" explained
the younger lawyer. Cant help it,;
won't be here. You will have to
come Tomorrow"
But my client can't come to-mor-
row."
well, | can't break my engage
ment," said the senior. After some
further talk it was agreed that a meet
ing be held that night. That after
noon, having nothing else to do the
young lawyer and his client went TO a
ball game. The first man they saw
inside the grounds was the great
lawyer. who was hurrahing for the
"Phillies" with all the vigor Of his
lungs, That was his important en-
gagement. Needless to say the law
yers practice nets him enough money
each year to make him independent
Philadelphia Inquirer.
