A Genial Creating.

A young New York broker Of con-
vivial habits fell in with an old school
friend who had gone on the road
whenever you're In town come ul'
and bunk with me-" he urged his
friend as they separated. "No matter
what old time it Is. If I'm not there
just go ahead and make yourself at
home. I'll be sure to turn up before
daybreak."
Soon after this the salesman arrived
in town about midnight, and, remem-
bering his friends invitation, sought
out his boarding house. There was
only dim light Pickering In the hall,
but he gave the bell manful pull.
Presently he found himself face to
face with landlady of grim and terri
bic aspect.
Does Mr.. Smith live here?" he fal
tered.
''He does,' snapped the landlady.

Ono on the Man of Method

'Don't wait for me-" he said to his
better half. II may be rather late,
but business is business you know
and can't be helped"
The next morning the man Of method
was far from either looking we'll or
feeling well. At breakfast he sat list
lessly toying with his toast and coffee,
while his spouse sat stonily silent be-
hind the coffeepot. The breakfast
room clock was equally silent.
Maria, my dear, there must be
something wrong with that clock. l
am sure l wound it up last night" re-
marked the husband.
No" answered his wife, you wound
up Freddy's music box instead, and
had it playing Home, Sweet Home at
) O'Clock in the morning! The hall
clock has also stopped, and you have
screwed your corkscrew right into the
telephone. Judges Library.
