NERVOUS PROSPERITY. ."-The lady

that she was afflicted with "nervous

But now q we'll Unknown Philadelphia

disease which he calls nervous pros.
perity, and which be says, while close
ly resembling nervous prostration, is
superinduced by directly opposite
causes. "Nervous prostration," he
says, lis usually caused by worry over
financial matters. The man who is
unsuccessful, whose hopes have been
bIighted. and whose fondest ambitions
have been trailed in the dust of defeat
is the man who succumbs to nervous
prostration. On the other hand, the
sufferer from nervous prosperity is the
man whose head has been turned by
success, or, in other words, the man
who cannot stand prosperity. The
treatment in both ailments is practi-
cally the same. Indeed, I may say
that the diseases themselves are identi-
cal, which seems strange when you
consider the variance of their respect

A WONDERFUL CLoCK.-Two years
ago a South Chicago jeweler did some
figuring. He calculated that he would
in all probability live 40 years. He
knew that it takes at least two min
utes to wind the ordinary house clock.
At that rate he figured that he would,
during the rest of his life, spend about
so days of his valuable time winding
the clock, to say nothing of the time
and temper lost through forgetting it.
Then be decided to make clock that
would have to be wound but once in
40 years.
He spent his odd minutes at the
task and has succeeded in producing a
wonderful pierre of mechanism-the
only one of its kind, he claims in the
world.
This 40 year timepiece is Is inches in
diameter and weighs Is pounds. The
movement is geared so that the barrel
wheel containing the handspring re-
wolves once in % years.
When this wheel has made 56 revo-
lutions, somebody will have to give the
key II turns. The clock will them be
wound up for another 40 years. The

crawls around at the rate Of one turn

LINCOLN AS A Young LAWYER
Some of the most amusing anecdotes
are told about President Lincoln, re-
lating to incidents of his life when he
was a young lawyer practicing in the
courts of Illinois. 1t is said that he
was once engaged in a case in which
the lawyer on the other side made a
very voluble speech full Of wild state.
ments to the jury. Lincoln opened
his reply by saying:
"My friend, who has just spoken to
you, would be all right if it were not
for one thing, and I don't know that
you ought to blame him for that, for
he can't help it. What I refer to is
his reckless statements without any
ground of truth. You have seen in
stances of this in his speech to you.
Now, the reason of this lies in the con-
stitution of his mind. The moment he
begins to talk, all his mental opera
tions cease, and he is not responsible.
He is, in fact, much like little steam
boat that saw on the Sangamon river
when I was engaged in boating there.
This little steamer had a hve-foot
boiler and a seven-foot whistle, and
every time it whistled the engine stop

"Now cried the stricken father
"never !"
"Then that accounts for your ignor-

AN UNFAIR ADvANTAeE.-Dr. Las
ker, the great chessplayer, when in
London is in the habit of occasionally
visiting a certain restaurant in the city
well-known to many chess devotees.
On one of these occasions, just prior
to his departure for St. Petersburg to
play DR.. Steinitz for the champion
ship, a fussy old gentleman offered to
play him for box of cigars if he
would concede him the odds OF a
queen.
The offer was good-naturedly &C.
cepted; and on Lasker's winning, he
became the recipient of a box OF
doubtful.looking cigars, which, how.
ever, the donor averred were OF good
quality. -.
On visiting the same restaurant, af-
ter easily defeating Steinitz, Lasker
happened to meet his late opponent,
who asked him what he had thought
of the cigars.
"First-rate !" answered the cham
pion; Gin fact, I might almost say
they won me the match"
"Indeed! I am delighted to hear
itr returned the old gentleman, much
pleased.
EYES," continued Lasker, with a
merry twinkle in his eye, III gave

A STICKLER For REALIsM.-Some
amateurs in an English provincial
town gave a theatrical performance.
Just before the curtain went up the
star actor took the manager aside and
said to him:
"Now look here; I don't propose
to drink water instead OF wine in the
drinking scene in the second act. l
want wine-genuine wine. The uni
ties must be preserved. We want to
make this play as realistic as pos
sible."
"Oh, you want champagne at Is

realistic"
GAIL right" replied the manager.
"In the second act you shall have real
wine, and when you take poison in the
last act you shall have some real poi,

of the play not being realistic enough

A DEAL On THE QUIET.

"One day." said Jay Rial, impress

sat in the Office of New York theac-
rical agent. He was looking for at
fractions for a vaudeville show, and
word to that effect had gone out. To
him came a tough-looking little man
in checkered clothes, once vociferous,
hut now subdued by wear of time.
The man was accompanied by dog
of somewhat superior appearance.
The visitor said he did a tramp act,
and was assisted therein by the ami
NAL. They gave an exhibition OF
their talents, which was not half bad.
"sWhat are the terms?' asked the
agent.
/" Sixty dollars week.
"sIll give you fifteen dollars"
"The imitation tramp--he needed
little makeup, for he was close to the
real thing-bent sad, reproachful
eve on the agent and backed out OF
the room, followed by the dog. At
once he returned, carefully shutting
the door to exclude his partner, who
remained in the hall.
"Ill take it," ne said. 'Where's
the contract? I'll have to 60 you.
It's a clean case of push, but for
Heavens sake don't mention the price

Cremation Growing In Favor.

The movement in favor of cremation
as against earth burial is growing il
England The other day Mr.. William
Rathbone. .ex M. p, stated in public
that he had made provision for crema
tion in his own case on principle and
with view to promoting the reform.
At this moment new crematorium il
almost ready for use at Liverpool. 1t is
a neat building of red sandstone, simple
and chaste in design. The main door
opens into a small chapel. From this
room the coffin will be carried after the
burial service is read into a small apart
ment beyond and there placed upon an
iron frame running ON wheels and rails
in line with the furnace and pushed
noiselessly into the abode of flames.
From the chapel the clergyman, fol
lowed by the relatives of the deceased,
will ascend a stair on the opposite side
from the door by which the coffin has
been removed into small gallery over
looking the door of the furnace. From
this gallery the service prescribed fo1
the grave will be read and the mourn
ers will take the last look of the coffin
as it disappears within the furnace.
The situation of the crematorium at An
field is wisely chosen, being in the heart
of pretty suburban neighborhood and
accessible from all parts of the city.
There is an office, with a cottage for the
caretaker attached, at the entrance gate.
The crematorium will be opened for
public use not later than April l.
