The Boss,

IL A1OSSs
The clock strikes six. and Stub. the
office boy.
Hears the first strike with gladneSs
and great joy;
Drops what he has in hand, or pad or
book,
Gets down his coat and hat from
some near hook.
Eyes the slow clock and stands up
right and still.
Frozen into stiffness by the sound
until
He hears the BOSS roice-just two
words all
From lips grown economical-"That's
ALL"
And ere the final stroke of six, his
feet,
Winged, like Mercury's. have sought
the street.
Its quitting time; the fair stenogra-
Is palsied by the noisy stroke and
I. whirr
OF the old clock; gets down her hat
and cloak
And stands, cxpectant. on the second
stroke,
Craven like an image, motionless and
She waits and eyes the Boss's desk
The password filters like a blessing
through
Those lips that barely open-''That
will do"
And ere the echo fades and dies away
She's down the hall and vanished for
the day.
The whistle shrieks: the bent and
Flooding clerk
Lots fail hiS NON and ShOycS aside
his work;
Rolls down the top that guards his
desk, and rote
With well-trained instinct. doffs his
office coat.
Removes his hat from its abiding
And cleanscs from his finger tips the
trace
OF ink they bear: silent he stands and
And eyes the Boss's Uttered desk UNI
til
He hears two words-"Ciood night
the last chimes fall
OF six and he goes %plodding down tho
The echoes die; the dull and dronins
clerk
Plods far with measured footsteps
from his work.
The office boy has bounded in a door
And cried, Mt table, like some Twist,
for more;
The fair ~stenographer has caught a
car
Upon a nearby corner. and Jared far
From key and c%urley-cue; but still
the light
Above tho Ross's Uttered desk burns
bright:
Grim business. and his Aides of Gain
and Loss
Wait In the gathering shadows with
the Boss.
And still he waits-the Boss-but
hears no call
AS did tho office boy from him
That's ALI"
Nor falls a benediction filtered thru
The lips of his grim Master-"That
will do"
He hears from Business-thc real
Ross--no trite
And welcome words. such as his own
GOOD Night"
But he must wait and wait; and when
he goes
The three walk out with him, for well
he knows
The three no serves-Grim Business,
Gain and Loss.
Who brook no disobedience from the

MEANT 1T FOR THE WITNESS.

While Thomas Field was in the
dock at Birmingham (Eng.) AS
sizes recently, charged with breaking
a pawnbroker's window and with
theft, he picked up a stool in the
dock and hurled it with great vio-
lence at the presiding judge. The
stool struck his lordship's deck, and
glancing off caught the judge above
the eye. His lordship Immediately
retired to his private room. After
an absence of about five minutes his
lordship returned. Addressing the
prisoner his lordship said: Don't
throw anything like that again. You
might kill me next time" The pris-
oner: 81 meant it for the witness.
l did not mean it for you" The
prisoner was found guilty, and the
judge said he would have to serve
out the remainder of sentence on
previous conviction and do five ears
penal servitude in addition.

EVIDENTLY NOT LADIES' PET

He reached the hotel, and, climb

to the clerk, "and I'd like you to
take care of him."
The clerk, an affable soul, called
to James and told him to go out and
carry the dog inside.
James went outside. There was
long wait. The colonel became
fidgety; the clerk more so. Finally
James returned, baffied and help
less.
"Boss," said he, "Ah couldn't

SEAT OF HUNGER AND THIRST.

Whether the hunger sense has its
seat in the stomach and thirst in the
throat has been subject of much
scientific controversy. The italian
physician, Valenti, now puts the
seat of both these emotions in the
outlet; he found that a cocaine in
lection in the oesophagus (the chan
mel from the mouth to the stomach)
resulted in immediate suppression
of the feeling of both hunger and
thirst. Savages have long known
that the chewing of coca leaves rem
ders the gullet insensitive and de-
stroys any desire for food or drink.

CHILD's BEAUTIFUL IDEA.

Elsie, seeing'a piece of velvet for
the first time, was struck by finding
that one side was smooth, soft and
glossy, while the other was soft and
cottony. Her mother explained to
her that there were generally two
sides to a thing. Shortly after this
Elsie, while out walking with her
mother one clear night looked up
into the dusky sky and, seeing the
whole heavens thickly studded with
stars cried: 80, mother, if the
wrong side of heaven is so beautiful,
what must the other side be?"
