The Dyelns of the overcoat.

The Dyetng of the Overcoat. stranger than iietion." e % said a we'll known hotel clerk yesterday. Yes terday was looking over lot of old overcoats, grips, etc, that had accu- muiated at theshotel. found an over-- condition. There was nothing on 1t to indicate whom 1t belonged to. and I decided to send it around and have 1t dyed and use 1t this winter.
 When the coat was returned to me this morning there was a letter with it. The dyer told me that he had found the letter in the lining of the coat. ana 1t IS mystery how 1t got there. as there were no holes in any of the pockets. The letter was addressed to well known gentleman in a neighbor- ing city.
 T at once decided that the coat was his and was preparing to write to him about 1t when I picked Up a morning paper TS and noticed where he had died of the coat died on the same day that his coat was dyed, and have had a creepy feeling since.
 II don't think I will wear it this
 Glad to See school Season.
 am mighty glad to see that the scnooi season Is again upon us" said we'll known citizen yesterday. It always reminds me of work. Some- now It seems to me as if there is ai- ways vacation around If the kids are Joanng, and l find 1t pretty tough to really apply myself as diligently as I would otherwise owing to the general holiday aspect.
 ''Of course I know that all st1idents would be too eager to jump on me TOT making such an assertion as this. The novelty of summer never wears off such youngsters until after their school days, when 1t becomes more of bore than inspiration. However, with the children at school the house silent and the nights iengthening. there is g. lit- tle more joy to be found in routine matters than at other times, and &C., cordingly more is always accomplished.
 Every day l see pass my office loads upon loads of trunksA and owing to the lateEess of the season I attribute the condition to none other than that of school openings I always envy the owners of the trunks, just as all old men do. and dream of the time when was cast In a similar plight.
 reel that every student who leaves his home ought to have on his face the broadest smile that ever he wore. He will feel as do one of these days. Of course 1t is not natural for them to understand at the resent time that they are living in Elysian lands and dreaming their most golden dreams. but consolation is derived from the AoN1 Lhdh NuEJ VIII live IO say the same. and to wish G0d-speed to all knowl- edge seekers.
 Yes, sir. I'm mighty glad that the school season is back. and I wish 1t a most prosperous year"
