A scary story got around Washing
ington a day or two ago that Senator
Quay had nearly poisoned himself by
taking some strychnine tablets, mis-
taking them for something else. For
a brief time there was a wild rush OF
newspaper men and others in search
of the Pennaylvanian, who was finally
iennd. looking about as usual When
he learned what the uproar was about
he said to the newspaper men: For
once you boys are far behind the
news Why. I swallowed those tablets

your solicitude just the same"

Why the Fur Is the Most Popular for
Advertising.
Ths man who comes to New York
only once in ten years said he could
not understand why the bears in Cen.
trail Park seemed so much stuck up
than the rest OF the animals. but after
he had travelled about town for sew.
eral days he saw through it, It was
because 80 per cent OF the furriers In
town have chosen a big black bear
for an advertising sign. Why the
other animals in the Zoo should be 50
Disseminated against puzzled the
man not a little. One day he asked a
furrier about It.
: 1T Is because the bears last longer
than anything else said the fnrrier.
"Of all the animals IN New York
don't know of any that have a harder
time than those that stand outside fur
riers' stores, winter and summer and
try to drum up trade for their employ
ers. It doesn't make any difference
what kind Of weather comes along,
whether it blows hot or cold. those
fellows have to stand at their post
and swelter or freeze, as the case may
be. Naturally, all those changes are
pretty hard on their hide. and none
but bears can stand the strain. Some
furriers have tried the fox. lynx and
other animals now and then at ven
ture, bat they have mostly come back
to the bear as the most satisfactory
OF the lot They cost more, too. A
good stuffed bear comes as high as
SIS, but If he is treated well he will
last for twenty-five years. 50 that

low price after all. New York Press.

When a man standing at the head
Of vast business breaks down, the
papers begin to talk of the enormous
pressure Of modern life. especially in
the lines of finance and industrial ac-
tivity There are railway presidents
who stand a great amount OF business
strain but they waste none Of their

would hold their own in these busy

resisting strain. The railway mana
ger. bank manager. or head Of trust
or combine has his stan; his business
is systematlzed. and a large part Of
his worth to his corporation consists
in his ability to pick good men for
responsible places.
When one comes to look over the
list OF men broken down in business.
It is among those having small bust
nesses that the greatest number will
be found The man in a small way
rarely can afford to have capable as

and hence worry and OVERRIDING. There
is more of a chance for brain-fag in
