Too Long.


An old lady of his flock once called
upon DR.. Gill with grievance. The
doctors neckbands were too long for
her ideas of ministerial humility, and
after long harangue on the sin OF
pride she intimated that she had
brought pair of scissors with her and
would be pleased If her dear pastor
would permit her to cut them down to
her notions of propriety.
The doctor not only listened patient
ly, but handed over the offending
white bands TO be operated upon.
When she had cut them to her salts
faction and returned the bibs, 1t was
the doctors turn.
"Now," said he, "you must do me a
good turn also"
Eyes, that viii, doctor. What can
1t be?"
"WelI, you have something about
you which is deal too long and which
causes me no end Of trouble, and
should like to see 1t shorter"
Indeed. dear sir, will not hesi-
tate. What is 1t? Here are the scis-
sors. Use them as you please"
Come. then" said the sturdy divine
good sister. put out your tongue

on his hind legs. He sawed the air
and pitied the, poor millionaire. He
sawed 1T some more and promised
every laboring man a house ard lot.
Then, amidst such an outburst of en-
thusiasm as scared hens off the roost
three miles away, and woke ND in
rants to cry with collie, he closed and
stood with folded arms A thousand
men rushed to shake hands and con-
gratulate him. A hump-shouldered man
led them, and rammed and jammed
and elboWed until he stood beside the
proud orator. Then he held out toll
hardened hand and said:

The Big Four Railroad has announc.
ed that the loss from the defalcation OF
c. L. Warmer. reaches $4,000. The
remarkable thing about this from a
business point of view, is the length of
time. twelve years. that he stole the
money The railroad companies are
supposed to have the most perfect aud
iting system in the world.
But from human point of view. the
system of double blackmail to which
he was subjected. and the remark that
he was glad he was found out" gives
much for the moralists to ponder on.
The whole thing from the mans point
of view was another case of hell on
earth"
There are few things more tragic
than the sight of Bankers Row. in
the penitentiary. Here are men above
the average-gone bad. 1t ought to
help now and then to keep other men
straight to reflect on the case of War

years they asked him II his stealings
began before he went into that office

had kept no record of his thefts.
