MISTAKE ABOUT FATHER,
Boys Thought He Was to Be Pitied,
But Found They Were Mis-
taken.

At the Waldorf they are telling this
story of Plttsburg millionaire who is
over 20, and the way he fooled his son
and nephew on recent visit to the city
of the Great White Way. The two young
men dined with father" every evening,
and then watched hm take the elevator
to his quarters, relates the New York
Tribune.
Too bad father has to 60 to bed at
nine every evening SAID the son.
'He doesn't have much fun, does he?"
returned the nephew.
Wonder if he gees TO sleep right away,
or if he'd like us TO stay and talk 10 lim?'
from the son.
Lets go up and see" said the nephew,
feeling the full grip of compassion.
They found his shoes outside the door
waiting for the coming OF the Dootblack,
and there was re light in the transom.
Poor old man, he doesn't have a
very good time over here" they chorused.
Then they went out into the night in
cab, and toward midnight turned into
one of the gilded mlrrored lobster places.
When they were finally seated about a
table and had given the waiter his or
der, they looked about the room. The
first individual to meet their astonished
gaze was father in full evening dress,
pouring champagne into glass which was
held by an actress.
How about the shoes in front OF your
door," they asked him afterward
Its pity man OF my age and money
cant have two pairs of shoes, my chill
dren,, he said, with wink. Those were
my old shoes"

A PERFECT HAND.
How Its Appearance Became Fa-
miliar to the Public.

The story Of how probably the most
perfect feminine hand in America be-
came known TO the people is rather
interesting.
AS the story goes the possessor OF
the hand was with some friends in a
photographers one day and while talk
ing, held up a piece OF candy. The
pose OF the hand with its perfect con-
tour and faultless shape attracted the
attention Of the artist, who proposed
to photograph it. The result was a
beautiful picture kept in the family
until one day, after reading letter
from someone inQuiring as to who
wrote the Postum and Grape-Nut5 ad-
vertisements, Mr.. Post said to his
wife: We receive SO many in
luirles of this kind, that it is
evident some people are curious to
know, suppose We let the advertising
department have that picture of your
hand to print and name it "A Helping
Hand" MRS. Post has assisted him
in preparation of some OF the most IA
nous advertisements.)
There was a natural shrinking from
the publicity, but with an agreement
that no name would accompany the
picture, Its use was granted.
The case was presented in the light
of extending a welcoming hand to the
friends OF Postum and Grape Nuts, SO
the picture appeared on the back COW
ers of many of the January and Feb
ruavy magazines and became known &c
millions Of people.
Many artists have commented upon
1t as probably the most perfect hand
In the world.
The advertising dept. of the Postum
Co. did not seem able 10 resist the
temptation TO enlist the curiosity of the
public. by refraining from giving the
uame uf the owner when the picture
appeared, but stated that the name
would be given later in one of the news
paper announcements, thus seeking to
induce the readers TO look for and read
the forthcoming advertisements to learn
the name of the owner.
This combination OF art and COM
merce and the multitude Of inquiries
furnishes an excellent illustration Of the
interest the public takes In tie personal
and family life OF large manufacturers
whose names become household words
through extensive and continuous an
nouncements In newspapers md period
lcals.
