FARO AND POKER FOR GATES

There are men of affairs who turn to
cards in order to forget their business
cares. J. 2. Morgan is one of these, but
he never plays the great American game
Of poker Indeed, that particular form Of
card playing is his pet aversion.
When Mr. Morgan feels the need Of
forgetting the strenuous pace. but can't
get away on his yacht or over TO Europe
to buy famous works Of art and there Is
no Episcopal convention for him to at
tend, he turns TO solitaire. This absorbs
him so completely, he has told his
friends, that he can think Of nothing
else whatever. It clears his brain more
quickly and more thoroughly than any
other amusement he has ever tried.> It
IS his chief. almost his only, soIace when
he is really up against It" in one Of
