THE JUDGES DOUBLE ENTRY.
Style Of Bookkeeping He Learned from
Hotel Registers

Judge James Fitzgerald of the New
York supreme court is an excellent ex-
ample of what perseverance and sin
gleness OF purpose will accomplish
The judge, who is about 40 years old,
supported not only himself, but helped
his family while serving as cash boy
in store, and at night he attended
Cooper union. Later he read law at
night and managed to be admitted to
the bar at the same age that most
young men begin practice. To 'his
native Irish wit is added power Of
speech that nearly approaches elo-
quence. He soon took prominent
part in politics, and was for years a
member OF the legislature. Several
years ago he was appointed an addi-
tional assistant district attorney at the
comfortable salary at $500 per year.
Before taking Office he married and
went on a prolonged wedding trip.
When he returned a months pay was
due him and he went to the Office for
it. During his honeymoon he had
travelled over a good part OF this coun-
try, and as his funds were low he went
direct from the train to the Office.
Here is your money" said the pay
clerk, deferentially, after his kind.
"All right" replied Mr.. Fitzgerald,
pocketing the roll Of bills. Sign the
payroll, please" continued the clerk.
"Of course" responded the bridegroom
and, absent mindedly, he wrote as fol-
lows: James Fitzgerald and WIFE"
And the entry is on the city books to
this day.-Philadelphia Post.

come in to sit down with our reunited
families, and the challces will be full
not with the wine that sweats in the
vat of earthly intoxication, but with
"the new wine of the kingdom" And
there for the first time we will realize
what fools we were on earth when We
feared to die, since death has turned
out only to be the moving from q
smaller house into larger one. and
the exchange Of paupers hut for !
princes castle, and the going up stairs
from a miserable kitchen to a glorlou:
parlor. o house of God not made with
hands, eternal in the heavens!
