MONEY MADE HIM INSANE.
Strain Of Handling Large Sums Un'

Strain Of Handling Large Sums Un.
balances Reason. ~
Capt. Fitzgibbon lost his reason
from the strain of handling large sums
of money in the treasury, says the
Philadelphia Public Ledger. He was
the representative Of the United States
Express company there, and charged
with the responsibility of handling
millions of money from one years end
to another.
A short time before Fitzgibbon was
compelled to leave his position .
friend asked him If it was not an
awful responsibility to be forever
handling money, and he replied:
= Great God. old man, no man on
earth can ever imagine the strain un-
til he goes through with it. 1t is sim
ply a purgatory on earth. I wish I
was in some other business. Not
for my life would I steal q penny, but
the temptation Is often great. Fight
it as you may, the temptation to be
dishonest will come to you. It is no
ordinary task to resist the temptation
to steal. 1t is a fight day in and day
out with many an honest man. I
knew one Of the best men in the ser.
vice to send in his resignation simply
from the fear that some day the temp
tation to do wrong would be too great
for him. The best men in the world
will go wrong sometimes unless they
are exceedingly guarded. Such posi-
tions are too tempting for the ordin.
ary man. OF course, they pay, well,
but think of the great strain on one
who Is tempted to be dishonest. With
most men, l am firmly convinced, it
is battle all the year around between
being honest and thief. do not be-
lieve that any man ever handled
amounts of cash without the tempta-
ton to steal at times passing through
his mind. It's q battle from the
shoulder all the time"
And now the man who talked this
way is in the government insane asy-
lum. 81 !.

conpanied by the well-known Alpine
guide, Maitias Zurbriggen, who had
travelled with Sir Martin Conway when
he visited and surveyed part OF this
region in 1892, and therefore had con-
siderable experience, and from what
the authors state regarding him he
fully upheld his reputation as thor
oukhly reliable guide. From Askole
the party traversed the Biafo glacier as
far rs the Hispar pass and the Skoro
La. In the latter region Mrs. and :Dr.

DR.. Workman at Shigar they deter

travelled to Yuno. and established
camp at the elevation Of $4,000 feet,
from which position the attack on the
mountain was commenced, but 1t was
not until several days afterward that
the final attempt was made. The usu-
al difficulties with the coolies were ex-
perienced, and on this occasion the
party was only accompp 1ied by two

an elevation Of 10000 feet; the cold
was intense, with strong wind blow
ing, and Mrs. Workman was obliged to
get Zurbriggen to rub her hands and
pound her feet to restore circulation.
At this juncture one of the coolies
gave in and had to be unroped and sent
back, after which they struggled on,
gaining foot by foot, until at last the
summit was reached at an elevation
Of 21 600 feet. The party had been out
from camp thirteen hours, and the
climbing had been most difficult, GER
tainly a most wonderful performance
for lady, and one Of which Mrs.
Workman may justly feel proud. In

from the Bank of Worthington build
ing, to the new building of E. F.

alley. This was done without any
interruption to the delivery of mail

fact he endevors to serve the people
we'll at all times. The new Office
is a commodious one. the room
being % so, with two doors for
entrance and exit, closets, labratory
and basement. There is plenty of
room for the rural carriers for whom
there are three large new cases
coming. The room is well lighted.
Roscoe Oxford has his news stand

The building is two story, 32x60,
brick veneered. with a fine plate
glass front, cement walk and cem-
ent steps. Adjoining it is an addi-
ton for a residence. The upstairs
contains the photograph studio of
Mr.. Buchan g which is well lighted
and roomy. This is the only new
building of any size erected in our
town this season but it is q credit

EARLY RisIN0
Those WHO Practice It Arc Not Healthy,
4 -" Wealthy and Wise. :

= Wealthy and wise. !
No one has so well hit of the weak
ness of the old-time counsel about
"early to bed and early to rise" as the
late John G. SAKE, unless it was the
great DR.. Arnold Of Rugby fame, who
used to say that early rising, though
necessary for schoolmasters, was one
Of the few hardships In life which
habit did not make more easy. Re-
membering this, it is interesting to find
a writer in q medical journal making
the statement. that early rising, when
accompanied with effort, does no one
any good. "The reason" he says, "is
obviou. enough. There may be truth
in the old copy book saying that If
you 90 to bed at 10 you can get up at
g. but, unfortunately, 1t does not fol-
low that If you get up at you can
go to bed at 10. For one thing. you
generally do not want to; for another,
the amenities of social life put obsta-
cles in your path. And in that case,
of course, early rising merely means in
sufncient Sleep" The fact is that the
amount Of sleep needed by person
to maintain good health, like the
amount of food, must be determined
by individual wants and conditions.
Early rising is not per Sc special vir-
tue to be cultivated and exhibited on
all occasions. Under certain physical
conditions it may be, indeed, the very
tendency raost to be avoided d.-Leslie's

Arithmeticaj Puzzle.

She t:lted me and scorned my suit,
A maid Of summers twenty,
A fair coquette with roguish eyes.
Who had Of lovers plenty.
I turned my steps and rushed away,
And vowed that I'd forget her,
And once again as happy be,
As II I'd never met her,
Though years and years have passed
since then,
Though I've had sweethearts plenty,
My earliest ideal love
To me still seems but twenty.
And strange to say, when yesterday
met this maid and told her
My foolish fancy, she but frowned
And claimed to be no older.
