His Name In the Directory.


"One funny thing I have learned
about human nature" said the drug
store cashier, sis the habit many peo-
pie have of marking their own names
In the city directory. They do that be-
cause the directory Is the only place
where their names ever get into print
and It has such fascination TOR them
that they can't resist calling attention
to it. A funny old man who likes 20
talk tells me that he has made special
trips to different parts Of the city just
to mark his name In the directories Of
the neighborhood. He puts little
cross In red ink before It asked him
what good it did. He said none posi-
bly,, although he Is teacher OF IAN
guages and may get few calls on &C.
count OF that queer advertisement
But his is an exceptional case. Not
many persons spend time and uoney
hunting city directories. but every
time they happen to see new one
they can't help looking up their names
and putting some kind OF Q marx
around them. New York sun
