There aren't many nowadays,

Il couldn't name all the varieties to
you," said Mr.. Morse, "but to give a
general instance, Ned, they are the
people who wear heavy hats be-
cause they are the fashion, and then
suffer from headaches"
And the people that go without
overcoats, Ned, because it is consid-
cred the thing to do, and then have
stiff backs" said Mrs. Morse, sweetly.
And those that accept Office as
treasurer of a society for the honor
of it, when it takes them an hour to
add II and 49," said Mr.. Morse.
The boy looked puzzled, and he was
not enlightened when his mother said:
"And those who are growing a little
deaf, like me, Ned. I don't always

Then the heads Of the Morse house.

For the Critics.

Creston Clark, whose untimely
death at Asheville robbed America Of
a serious and capable actor, was
somewhat impatient of criticism. To
a Philadelphia critic he once said:
"You chaps are unwilling to accept
a man for what he is. You want to
change him to your own taste. But
each of you has different taste. To
whose inclination, then, is he to
bend?
mo, no! Take the artist for what
he is. That is the right critical atti-
tude. Don't be like the farm urchin
l once saw-an urchin who, as he
stoned a frog to death, repeated Sc
verely:
eth Farm ye to be toad.'"

tied. How do you make this type act
so?"
"All you do is to scratch a crease
on each letter, using a diamond cut
ter and making a crease you can't see
with the naked eye. Then you fill in
the creases with my Electromagnetic
fluid, and when the type strikes pa
per it leaves trace of the phonic
fluid, which one glance of the human
eye will cause to evaporate into
spoken words, strains of music, and so
forth. And there you be-" And Trad
smiled triumphantly.
"But-Great Scott! How long does
it take to scratch all them dinged

IF mans provided with a high
grade diamond cutter, made to order,
guaranteed hundred proof, and pro-
viding the type is plastic by being
treated in our specially constructed
carbo-furnace, carrying a relay of
three different kinds of gases, l fg-
ger a man ought to do one type a
day-else he's a skunk and loafing on
his job," said Trad.
rs that all?" whispered Edgar, his
face purple with suppressed emotion
Sure there amt some billion-dollar,
extry super-microscopic self-adjusting,
diamond hilted pin wheel to be fetch
ed in?"
Il swan! I did forgit the diamond
dust to be used in filing the diamond
cutter after each type is scratched"
cried Trad. Good joke on me, eh?
We'd slap it on with a low geared
emery wheel"
'I'll come over the first evening you

ly promised Edgar.

Her Second-8est.

Quakers believe in a sober garb, but
they are by no means without that
quality which would be termed vanity
in "the worlds people" Aunt Peace
Lawton had this quality to marked
degree.
One day a strolling photographed
asked permission to take a picture Of
the Lawton family, sitting on their
velvet lawn. Mr.. Lawton gave the
permission, but his remarks were not
approved by aunt Peace. When it be-
came evident that her gentle remon.
STRANGE had no effect, aunt Peace said
no more, but at the moment when the
photographer said "Ready?" and ex.
posed the film, aunt Peace lifted her
spotless handkerchief, spread to a

her face and head completely.
why, aunt Peace, what made you
do that?" asked her nephew, reproach.
