Bildad's Bad Bid

Bildad is as confirmed an auction fiend
as Mrs. Toodles OF historic memory
strong In resistance 70 all other lures,
he seems utterly unable TO Withstand
the temptations Of the hammer and the
block II is probably true, as his friend
Dobbleigh has said that i'm the days 70
come Bildad will stop his own funeral
procession to go In and bid on some ar
ticle for which neither he nor Mrs. Bill
dad has any use. II perchance the cor.
tege passes red flag on the way 70
the cemetery. However this may be.
what is true is that while doing in
church one Sunday morning Bildad was
suddenly aroused by the minister's an
nouncement OF the hymn.
1--WE will continue our service by sing-
ing the S75th hymn" said the clergyman.
Hymn No S55"
-Four dollars!" roared Bildad still
lingering on the bordeFland between the
province OF dreams and the land OF real
ity.-Harpers Weekly.

New York a Habit

street of theaters, and IL is a proverb
that no one ever sees a sad face on
Broadway. It's code resembles that Of
the Casino at Monte Carlo II is bad
form to be a spoiled sport in the great
gaming house by killing oneself there,
and it is a crime to look other than
cheerful on the great amusement
throughfare. II a man must show his
heartbreak or lifebreak the code de-
mands that he step into side street.
He sees that the farthest point Of the
island where 1t begins as the sharp end
Of wedge, is the Battery, the gate of
the city. where Europeans pour in after
every international chat at Ellis island.
He sees the extreme west as one of the
tattered sides, fringed. as is the east
side with poverty, all save Riverside
Drive, where he sees all OF the pros
porous fraction of the city awheel
In a short time he catalogues the New
York face. Quickly he learns to recog-
nize it, for 1t is the most impressive face
| in the country. Vivacity he sees in the
faces from the west, smiles on the faces
from the south, but the marble mask is
the model Of New York physiognomy.
He becomes used to the Indifference Of
New Workers. He learns that the metro
politan motto is Nobody cares for any
body else" He learns its naughty ig-
norance of geography. Every place not
on the island of Manhattan is vaguely
the sufficiently out of town to the res
ident Of Gotham.
Soon, unless inconsistencies and the fear
which the great city inspires send him
home, he Joins the tired faced crowds
who holt their. meals and hurry to their
tasks in the morning, returning several
shades paier and more lstless at night
To all of this great army, New York is
Il workshop. He wishes he might see
IL as does the later arriving cousin, as
a. great playground for happy visitors
Sometimes he goes back to the rckety
back doorstep. He takes his seat upon
It and tries to dream But dreams have
fled. New York has forced him as II
forces all to translate dreams into deeds
He is considerably bruised, a good dea
battered by hurting himself against the
cruel, sharp corners of the big city
He realizes, wistfully may be that had h
roamed less on the old door step h,
might have become the great man o.
this town, and he knows that, no mat
ter how much his growth since thos,
daydreams, he will always be a littl,
man in the big town on the small is
land
But he goes back to New York o
course he does, for New York faulty anC
t cruel as il is, has made itself ir
t resistible to him. 1t has become hi
} habit.

II he has the grit and sand to stick by
and succeed in his Undertaking. For my
self 1 would wish for love, glory and
power. as money is bound to be where
power is
Love. money. power, glory, Gee, that's
going some, isn't It?
And here's the wish OF a deep dyed
pessimist who says
IF could have my wish it would be
TO make people realize what fools they
are, how ignorant they are and how they
abuse themselves, and deprive themselves
OF what belongs 10 them. Conditions are
growing worse daily. and people instead
OF improving are becoming more selfish
and degraded more helpless and hopeless.
Something should be done to save our
country and our people, and ] wish l
knew how TO do It,"

here below, wants that little aquatic. He
says, Il wish, st, a nice little country

five feet long with twenty-four horse
power, four-cylinder engine Third. and
last wish, a steady job at $40 a week,
and, believe me, / would be satisfied with
life and Tor life II / had that"
"A wife writes:
My three wishes are this: For q
husband that realizes that a woman
wants to be loved just as much when
| she's fat and 40 as she did when she
was slim and 20. Second, for a husband
that wasn't a perpetual crouch and didn't
! sit up like sore-headed bear that you
were afraid 10 poke up when he Is at
home. Third, for husband who realized
that ii takes money to run a home and
that a woman doesn't eat up herself all
of the provisions that are charged on
the grocery bill"
Another woman has Just one wish. She
says:
Il desire to write a good story, or be-
come a journalist, have an income OF al
least 1850 a year and KEEP SWEET"

My three foremost wishes are: First.
to be a good. honest, law abiding citizen,
who takes an active interest in the city,
state and national government. Second,
TO be a faithful husband. Third, TO have
employment the emoiument Of which
would be ample for the maintenance Of
the first two wishes"
Another who knows what he wants
says:
Would l wish for beauty No. Let
.me remain as was created / no doubt
look as respectable as one who trims hs
whiskers every morning.
Would I wish for power? Yes. That
Is someth ny which think any man

whistles of the speeding elevated trains,
