he waits for the dinner he has ordered,

the passage of time, and he INDUCES

He is master of himself, captain of
all his forces, and when. he has given
himself the command to wait he ex-

Can't you get the whole man from

The story is told of two women who
stood before desk ledge at the post
office. One looked on while the other
took from her bag torn envelope af1%
penknife. Then the knife woman said:
IT got a letter from Mary this morn
ing 1t had this Red Cross stamp on it
and as 1 don't believe in paying for
what you can get for nothing, Pm go
ing to stick it on my letter to Jim
wonder where I can get some muci-
lage%
She obtained the mucilage by taking
her letter and the secondhand Christ
mas stamp to the registry office down
the main corridor at the far end of the
building. She came back and posted
Jim's letter opposite a table where two
helpful women had Red Cross seals for
sale. Then she took her parcels from
thu other woman and started for the
door with the relieved air of one who
has just done the right thing and got
it off her mind.
And the bulls eye of this true story
is that the woman who faxed that
is going to die some day Of tubercu-
losis.

Tell me what man reads and I

Did it ever occur to you how many
ways there are of waiting and how

There is one man who, when he is
waiting for a car which he knows
will come at a certain time, will rush
out into the middle of the street or
to a vantage point across the road,
a half dozen times in the space of ten
minutes in the hope of seeing it COM

Can't you imagine just what this
man would be like in the business of

to act and then wait for the passage
of time to ripen his act into results :?
Then there is the man who, while
he waits, asks half a dozen people

Cincinnati, July 6.-Rigid investiga-

Middletown, o., Monday in which 81
lives were last and upward Of two
score persons injured, were being pros
ecuted today in four cities of Ohio.
Traffic officials of the Cincinnati, HAM

ing over the evidence that has ac-
cumulated in their hands.
Coroner Burnett of Butler county an
nounced that his inquest Is to begin on
Friday.
The question of responsibility for
the disaster hinges on the delivery or
nom delivery of orders to the passenger
train to wait three miles north of Mid
dletown for the freight to take sid
ing.
The pilot of the passenger train says
he never received those orders and the
crew of the freight have produced them
as justification for their presence on
the track in front of the flyer.

fault. Nobody who was anybody paid to
ride on a train. It was just like throwing
inoney awaysto buysa railroad tiek.st And
nobody had money to throw away.
About the same time, too, members of
Congress and others began to pay street
car fare in the District. That was a new
sensation, but they are used to II now.
The fact is, they legislated themselves
into that very predicament.
But express and telegraph franks were
left. They were some consolation. Not
