HIS WAY TO KEEP STRAIGHT.
PhiiadeIphfa Csachman Tells Hfs
Employer Some Tricks of
His Calling.

John, I'd like TO know what makes
your back SO straight" said rich
Philadelphia man TO his coachman the
other day, says the Press, of that
city. "And how do you stand the
fatigue of sitting so beautifully erect
while you drive for hours and hours
at a stretch"
The ooachman blushed with pleas
ure as be led his master to light and
airy corner of the carriage house.
IN show you the kind of exercise
take every day, sir" he said, $50 as
10 be credit to your livery, and your
eGuipage, and yourself and lady"
The man then lay down on his
stomach and drew upward his body
and his legs until he formed a v.
the point of which-his abdomen
alone touched the ground. II do this
200 times day, sir" he said. at
gives correct carriage"
Then, on parallel bars, he dipped.
"One hundred of these daily, sir, ex-
pand the chest and give a robust
grace to the upper arms and shout
ders." He put his arms, well stiffened,
at his sides, and then slowly raised
them till the hands met over his head.
81 do about 500 of that movement for
chest broadener, also for straight
eners-"
He then nearly touched his back
with the crown of his head and quite
/ touched his chest with his chin. THAT

the head proper Eoise. And so on,
sir; l continue for an hour or two
every morning, and don't believe. as
long as | keep it up, I'll ever lose
my figure"

is YOUR CLOCK ON TIME7
'"me interesting Observations Sag
sested by This Frequently Re-
oeated Query.

"One OF the things I have learned in
the course of my experience" said the
middie-aged man, according to the
New York Sun, ''is that people don't

10 great many people, and IL Is more
or less annoying to most of them.
nave seen men resent ii with a start,
though that would he something uu-
usual; but, as rule, most mer think
well OF their clocks, and they resent the
question more or less in their hearts il
they don't in word or manner.
Doesn't every man think his own
watch is good timekeeper? He does.
IL may be cheap watch that cost ten
dollars or five dollars or one dollar, but
he thinks it's good one. All cheap
watches are better nowadays than they
used 10 be, but each man thinks he's
got the still remarkable exceptional
watch that really is a wonder. And
the clock owner thinks the same of his
clock. Whether it's in the jewelry
store, the bakery or the butchers, they
all resent the question: is your clock
right?
The question implies in some vague,
Indefinite way the idea of an assump-
ton of superiority on the part of the
questioner, for does it not suggest in
feriority, at least on the other mans
clock? and no man likes it. My conclu-
sion is that nobody should ask the ques-
ton idly-not at all, in fact, unless
something really depends upon it. But
If it should be really matter of inn
portance for you to know, then you
may ask, and this time you'll find the
question will not he resented"

PORK ard bacon Hnr..

The ordinary pig is q phlegmatic ami
NAL, given to eating much and laying
on fat at q rate that delights its owner,
says q correspondent of The American
Cultivator. There Is nothing nervous
or high strung In him-so different
from the fine dairy cow, horse or thor
oughbred sheep. The pigs disposition
is perfectly adapted by nature to the
life it leads, and SO anybody can fatten
N il there is }plenty OF food at hand.
He is the poor mans friend, too, be-
cause he will eat almost anything.
But there Is ID difference even Id pigs,
and breeders are just beginning to real
lie that there are nervous, high strung
breeds that will not SO. readily fatten.
These nervous pigs are not adapted to
the work ordinarily required-of them,
They would fill the pork barrel very
slowly and make doubtful profits for
the owner. But they are not without
their use In the world. They have q
mission to perform that has been only

nervous temperament In the pig makes
him essentially the bacon pig.
Here we have the two broad distinc.
tons that should be observed careful
", the phlegmatic pig for the pork bar.
rel and the nervous, high strung pie
for making bacon. The former makes
poor bacon. The meat is too fat and
greasy, and It sells poorly ID the mar
ket. Good bacon needs the streaks Of
lean with the fat that an ordinary porE
pig cannot produce. His tendency t
fatten unduly is fatal to him. The pig

contrary. will not pay for pork. but 1,

HAS NO KNOWN HEIRS
ADMINISTRATORS FOR BOARDING
HOUSE PROPERTY APPOINTED.
Quick Work Was Done at the Insti-
cation of Creditors-Inter-
esting Court Cases.

Annie James. a widow keeping a boarding
house at % North Alabama street, died
at 5 o'clock yesterday morning. and by 3
o'clock in the afternoon an administrator
for her estate had been appointed. This
haste was due TO the fact that she had
no relatives in this city and there was no
one who could legally assume the director
ship of the boarding house.
Soon after her death George III. Bryce.
one of her creditors. heard of 1t and at
once consulted Charles r. Hasely. his at
torney, regarding his claim. Bryce and
the attorney made an investigation and 1t
was then learned she had no relatives or
heirs to her property. A conference was
held with Probate COMMISSIONS Walker
and IL was decided that to secure the prop
erty Hasely should be appointed admins
traitor. The boarding house is filled with
disinterested persons, and to keep the
property from becoming IN any way en-
tangled immediate action by the court was
necessary.
After Attorney Hasely had been ap-
pointed he turned the boarding house over
to a young man and his mother, who have
been staying with Mrs. James. They Will
act as host and hostess of the boarding
house until after the funeral, which will
take place Monday. The boarders must be
fed, and an order was given by the admin
istrator for groceries and provisions to
furnish three meals a day until the estate
is finally settled after the funeral.
Usually the twenty days set out by law Is
allowed TO pass before administrators are
appointed. Sometimes appointments are
made under this limit. but only rarely is so
much haste required as was necessary in
this case. 1t is also exceptional that
estates are left in this manner without any
one TO assume control.
