"Ah!" said the king, you are already at your work; pray what are the regulation morning hours in this office?" From eight to twelve," stammered the unhappy man, wish- ing his bad luck had not led him so early out of bed. And what hour, may l ask, can I hope to see your catalogues?"

"Oh, we'll, go on with your smoke, and tell your chief of my visit when he comes," which, of course, was done, causing dismay to reign supreme in the breasts of the 3OO-odd clerks thus caught mapping.

All of which we duly certify by this in- quisition, in writing, by us signed, this 23d day of August, 1901.
 The instrument is signed by H. c. Hibben, foreman; John I. Reilly, J. l.. Amundson, w. H. Murray, z. A.. Green and Bane Black.
