SeIGshness.

Jones worked so hard, and denied
himself so much, in order to pay his
life insurance, that he had neither
the time nor the means to be sick;
and he outfived all the beneficiaries,
who were meanwhile engaged in the
relatively unhealthy business Of lying
back and waiting for him to die. More
over, in thinking of the matter, he be-
came convinced that he had had a
good deal of fun, after ,all,-more fun,
indeed, than most.
I'm terribly selfish fellow!" ex-
claimed Jones, guiltily.-Puck
