trick" was played on a Kansas City
young man at the race track the other
day. One night he had a dream
in which he saw himself wearing a
red carnation and playing the races
In the dream he was winning big rolls
Of money. Yesterday morning he told
one OF his friends about the dream
and said he intended to wear a red
carnation and play the races. In the
meantime his friend told half a dozen
Of the young mans acquaintance
about the dream. and they all wore
red carnations to Elm Ridge. Before
the first race one of the conspirators
met the young man who had had the
dream.

Story That Was Never Read.

A pitiful story is told of Philip
Bourke Marston, the blind English
writer. One day particularly good
idea came to him and he sat down to
his typewriter with enthusiasm. He
wrote rapidly for hours and had near
ly finished the story when a friend
came in. Read that" said Marston
proudly, "and tell me what you think
of it." The friend stared at the happy
author and then at the blank sheets
Of paper in his hand before he was
able to understand the little tragedy.
The ribbon had been taken from the
typewriter and Marston's toll was for
nothing. He never had the heart to
write that story again.
