Tne story OF a Mean Man.

s'hls is the story OF mean man. He
may not be the meanest on,Iyrord. but
he carries a very fair brand OF close
fstedness. He had a contract to' sup
ply a certain amount ,of crushed stone.
The machine he used could turn OUT all
the work he could get by running,efght
hours day.
The mean man had antengiueer who
was a genius. The genius went ITO his
employer one day and saidihe thought
he could make some Improvements in
that machine so it would ,b more work
in less time. The genius twas paid by
the month.
He worked on the macltinesfor sever
al days, taking it apart and putting it
together again. When reconstructed,
1t proved TO have greater efficiency
than before, so much so thatiit did the
same amount OF work in one minute
and a half that it used TO take four
and n half to do.
The mean man, howpvcrSCould get
no more contracts than before. He
could fill all his orders by running
about three hours n day. The mean
man then went to the genius and said:
See here, Henry, I've been paying
you by the month, but there isn't as
much work as there used TO, be-not
enough to keep you busy. | shall have
to pay you by the hour after this"
Henry demurrcd. He had In bhen too
faithful but he didn't think thnt ought
TO reduce his earnings over osle-half
His employer was firm. however, and
Henry resigned.-New York Mail and

A traveller stepped from a train at
Pittsbarg very early the other morn
ing and went to the depot lunch room
to get breakfast. He was extremely
tired from a long ride and consequently
not In the best Of moods
What do you want?" snarled one Of
the waiter girls. She had get-up-too-

savagely.
"A little courteous treatment" re
sponded the traveller.

girl
II thought so," was the laconic reply
of the Clevelander. "Give me some
regular eggs"
I'VE only keep fresh eggs" replied
the girl.

queried the Cleyelander.

their long "stogle" topped boots to pre-
vent breaking them, thus giving them
the name of Stogies.
When Mifflin Marsh entered the stogie
business, he was able to supply the
trade by his own work. At the time Of
his death his factories, employing sew
eral hundred expert rollers, and
dozen other plants just as well supplied,
were catering to the demand for
Wheeling stogies. Marsh assisted ma
terially In the recent litigation in the
United States Court In Boston, which
resulted In the handing down Of de-
cision protecting the name wheeling

means of increasing the local trade, In
which he amassed fortune.
