Not a Typical Merchant.

One Of our busy dry goods merchants
had habit of getting into spasm OF
rage and drawing his pen through the
name Of any employee against whob'
he imagined he had momentaIy
grudge, the act meaning immediate dis
charge. 1t chanced that young woul-
an was absent for three days owing to
the death Of her mother Outside Of
the regular compulsory vacation 1t was
the only time she had been away from
the store in ten years. On her return
she was Informed that her services
were no longer needed. She pleaded
to be reinstated, but the merchant said
"Our business must so ON. We cannot
wait until you bury your dead. This
store never Closes" A few years later
the only son Of this flint heart died,
and the girl wrote this letter: "Yon
discharged me because remained at
home long enough to bury my mother
saying: Our business must so on. We
cannot wait until you bury your dead
This store never closes Perhaps, sir
you may now be able to close your
store and make time to bury your
deadr,-N New York Press.

Gem. and Their Days.

In the old mystic books Of the an
cients it is found that they believed in
the power Of precious stones to bring
good fortune through planetary affini-
ties Of certain days. They imagined
that gems as we'll as metals were pro-
duced through the chemical operations
of the planets working secretly in the
body of the EARTH Therefore certain
stones must be worn on certain days
Of the week for good luck.
The table of stones as given by the
Hermetic brethren is as follows:
Sunday, the suns day. gold and all
yellow stones.
Monday. the moons day. pearls and
all white stones except diamonds.
Tuesday. Mars or Tyr's day. rubles.
Wednesday, Wodens day. sapphires
and all blue stones.
Thursday. Thor's day. garnet and all
red stones except rubies.
Friday. Freja's day. emeralds and all
green stones.
Saturday. Saturn's day. diamonds.

yesterday that. In regard to subway air. action
had taken the place of investigation. The COM

tried without much delay for the purpose OF
creating breeze to stir up and possibly dissi-

The next STEP said Mr.. Rice. 'is to sub
stitute for these smaller fans larger ones-say
ten feet in diameter-and then, II found neces-
sary and expedient, to provide cooling appar-
atus for the air that is to be breathed In un-
derground passages If these experiments prove
advantageous, others will follow, but OF tnls
be assured, the commission is bound to not only
find out the cause of the present trouble. but
to mitigate the suffering Of the people now,
