One explanation of how so many

100 aud 200 natives were employed
to clear the surrounding grounds.
These men were furnished by the pres

of their work was the cutting of IN

NEW SHORT STORIES
Mr.. cleveIand's Test.

In 4 speech at Norwich, Conn, the
home Of his grandfather, delivered dur
ing a recent visit, eX-President Cleve,
land told the following anecdote:
when | lived in Buffalo, a good many
years ago, man also lived there whose
occupation was largely the collection
of bad debts. He was so persistent
and followed a debtor in manner SO
destructive of peace and comfort that
he was quite commonly known as
'Pestilence.' He originated in Norwich,
and l determined that if ever had an
opportunity / would test his Norwich
pride Of nativity. One day he called
on me, and since he was not on a col
lecting errand we began a pleasant
chat. He soon remarked that he had
often wondered if l was in any way
related to Deacon Cleveland, who used
to live in Norwich. With the opportu-
nifty l had awaited SO fairly presented
me and anxious to make the test
as thorough as possible | replied that
I was somewhat related to the deacon
as a grandson and casually indicated
my doubts as to his fair dealing in his
business as q matchmaker and repair
er. The test was most effective, but
the explosion was terrific For an in
slant | feared physical harm, and be-
fore the door was slammed behind
raging figure | was told with vigorous
emphasis that l was disgrace to my
name and that if ever became man
one-half as honest and respectable az
my grandfather who lived in Norwich
would be more lucky than l deserved
to be and more of the same sort. Now,
of course / knew it was wrong as an
ordinary proposition to speak ii the
way l did about my grandfather, but
In aid Of an important research and for
the purpose of testing a most interest
ing theory | sacrificed my sense of pro-
priety. have fully made UP my mind
that under no stress of temptation will
l ever again even appear to scandaliZe
or speak lightly of my own or any one
else's grandfather if he was born In
Norwich"

THE STRENUOUS LIFE.

OF the strenuous life led by most
business men nowadays W. j. Otis
of st. Paul, who is a successful
grain merchant himself, says:
What is the use Of all the wild,
hysterical stampede that takes place
daily? From the cheap clerk up to
The business man, who ought not to
waste his energy in wild rushing,
every enc is tearing along as if the
tends of hell we're pursuing him.
He wastes more time by needless
hurry than he saves at the other
end. Your average business man
does not have to be at his office I'M
til 9 or 10 o'clock in the morning,
yet he gulps his breakfast down in
five minutes and reads the paper
for an hour. When he gets to his
office, everything must run at fever
heat. He has an hour for luncheon,
eats it in three minutes and wastes
the balance. He hurriea home after
the days work, wades through his
dinner and races for the theater or
club, then is whisked home for a
nervous, restless sleep. How can a
man last under such conditions and
be at his best? If that is the way
modern business must be conducted,
with no regard for hygiene, diges-
ton or nerves, l think the man is
better off with less money and more
. ease =
