to be null and void; and

said respective claims will be forever
barred and said cause will,on said day,
be assigned for hearing or as soon
thereafter as the convenience and
pleasure of the court will permit.

A MODEL HOTEL CLERK,
lie Has Phenomenal Memory and
His CHEEKY Manners GLADDEN.
His Guests.

! The hotel clerk stood behind his
little bar, and, one after another,
the guests arrived. Thus, smiling af-
fably. did the hotel clerk. handle
them, says the Philadelphia Record.
"Mr. A., I'm glad to see you. viii
you have your old room, 3O4, again?
Good! It's vacant, fortunately.
How do you do, Mr.. b? There are
five letters waiting for you. I
rather expected you tonight, so |
had fire built in the open CRATE in
IT,. You are still fond of open
CRATES, ] suppose? Mr.. C.. you are
just in time. We engaged Il new
pastry cook yesterday, and the boss
said he hoped you would be along
soon to pass judgment on him.
Would you like 2So again? All right.
Front! 2S9. Hullo, Mr.. d.. didn't
think you'd visit us this winter. One
of your men told us about your ty-
pllod fever siege. | think you're
looking mighty well, all things CON
sitcred"
Very wonderful was the hotel
clerks memory and very pleasant
was the effect of it upon the faces
of the guests. Their worn and har-
ricd look vanished; they smiled; it
delighted them to be welcomed so
