1t Brought Praise From the Preacher
Who Didn't Deliver 1t.
Before exCongressman John Finerty
became famous as the great American
British lion tail twister he was one Of
the best reporters in Chicago. He was
on The Tribune, and one day certain
city editor (best known to fame as the
man who always wore straw hat and
smoked a corncob pipe) decided that
Mr.. Finerty should be disciplined
1t was Saturday. and some time after
midnight Mr.. Finerty was assigned to
report the morning sermon of an OBJ
scure minister way down on the South
Side. Finerty was the senior, and his
associates were thunderstruck They
expected an explosion, at least, but
Finerty remained calm and dignifed,
although trife pale "Then he will
resign, " they thought. but Finerty
walked out and made no sign. To the
surprise of every one, he reported the
next day as usual and turned in an alb
stract of the sermon. Every one read it
on Monday morning, and it was GER
talnly an eloquent and carefully report
ed sermon.
That afternoon man of clerical cut
called ON the city editor and asked to
see the young man who had reported
his sermon the morning before. Mr..
Finerty was introduced The man OF
the clerical cut would like to see Mr..
Finerty alone for few moments. Out
in the hallway he asked. 'tOf course,
you were not at my church yesterday
morning2'
mo. replied Finerty
"Well, simply stopped to thank you
for the sermon. 1t was far more elo-
quent than the one preached ="
Finerty had composed the sermon in
a neighboring cellar beer saloon or

''No special.
With that remark to the assistant
who took down the measurements the
tailor dismissed his patron and said
that the suit would be finished "sure"
on certain day
''What did you mean by saying mo
special to your clerk?" asked the Gus
toner
"Well. that means that you want
your clothes made all right and without
any crank things about them. Pockets
are the great specials We have GUS
toners who want. besides the regular
pockets, places in their waistcoats for
pencils. eyeglasses and all sorts of
things. Some pencil pockets are made
to hold only one pencil and some for a
bunch. Eyeglass pockets are also or
dered in keeping with the shape and
style of the glasses, and pockets for
cigars are ordered for all sizes, from the
little half pencil shape to the great
big perfecto. Freak pockets, inside of
other pockets, are also in demand, and
chamois lined pockets, which we usual
ly make for the watch side of the waist
coat. are ordered often for trousers by
men who carry silver trinkets in them.
Another class of special customers
are those whose garments are made
with a view to the wearer's health.
Many men have an inner band of red
flannel put on the waist of their trou-
sers as cure for rheumatism, and some
driving coats are made so that sheets
of stout paper may be slipped between
the breast lining and the cloth when
driving against the wind

tunity to find out the kinks and queer
points about men, not only as to their
persons, but their minds New York

A Haunted House,

"The haunted house in this case, .
said the old college man, twas occupied
by very estimable and intelligent
gentleman He did not believe il
ghosts, but two nights had made hin
look old AMI careworn, and there were
certainly loud, strange and startling
noises in his attic. They would continue
right up to the time that some one en-
tered the haunted room, but the open
ing of the door was the signal for &
most oppressive silence.
"Half dozen of us college fellows
asked permission to investigate, and il
was gladly granted. We waited till we
heard the noise, and assure you thai
there was plenty of it. 1t continued un
til we had crept up stairs, but ceased
when we entered the attic We waited
there without result till big Hicks o.
the football team, carried out plan
We closed the slide to the dark lantern
slammed the door noisily, as though
leaving and then settled down to wait
Presently the noise began. We flashed
the light in its direction, and there wai
a jug rolling back and forth rapidly
the handle striking the floor with {
loud thud.
T" Must be spirits in that jug,
laughed big Hicks, but his laugh was 6
tremolo. Well see, and he let go with
one of his famous kicks that shattered
the uncanny vessel. Then every fellow
let out yell and jumped as though
trying to knock hole in the roof A
rat had crawled into the jug and hai
been frantically trying to get out. -

their servants sitting in idleness with
work on every hand to do; have seen

wives, No woman in a happy American
home can ever afford to listen to these

Fortunately, the platform woman S

was never a power. She was never even

suspicion rather than with confidence.

Pigs and wttchcrmrt

Two women of the lower class were
quarreling violently the other evening
in Heavitree. suburb of Exeter. One
yelled to the other "'You wretch. you
always keep black and white pig,
so that you can witch usl You ought
80 be scraggedr' The one SO addressed,
it seems, has lived in her cottage some
20 years. She has during this period, it
is said, always kept a couple of pigs,
one of each color, and her neighbors
consider she does this so that she may
enjoy the very questionable powers of
witchcraft No butcher in the neigh
borhood will buy her pigs, as if he was
known to do so he would certainly lose
the local custom upon which he relies.

SOMETIME.

Ont Of today's mad struggle and distress
Out of its ASHES and dull WEAKNESS,
Hope sweetly rises with patient grace
Strange to the fury of life's grinding place
And, pointing Ger the hills where Sometime
dwells,
And we, who drag our yoke DER heavy roads,
Close in the shadow of more crushing loads,
Pause when the lash is still and lift our eyes
To pictures hung against the distant skies.
There we forget the sorrows Of this cline
In the glad gardens of that fair Sometime.
Tomorrow is today again renewed.
With added penalties and servitude,
And smaller chance to dream of Sometime g
peace,
Where wasting WEAKNESS will find release.
Yet faith is stronger than our CALLING cares,
And so we wait; but, oh, the waiting wears
