Boston physician tells of Doctor Reed who, in his time, was one of the prominent medicos of the Hub. His large practice included many patients outside the city limits, and these he visited in his buggy
 One day Doctor Reed bought a new horse. with which he was much pleased until he discovered that the animal had an insurmountable objec- tion to bridges of all kinds, and could not be made to cross one.
 Inasmuch as at that period it was necessary to cross certain bridges in order to reach any one of the sur rounding towns, the doctor decided to sell the horse He did not think it necessary to mention the animals pc. culiarity, but was much too honest to misrepresent him, and, after some thought, produced the following ad- vertisement, which he inserted in a local paper:

STORY OF HIS FLAG CORNER
Quickly Anticipated the Demand Fol lowing Death of President McKin- Iey-Gets Valuable Ideas From
 His Little Daughter.
By OSBORN MARSHALL.

Copyright, 1915, by the Mcclure Newspa-
 paper Syndicate)
 During the Spanish-American war there was big boom i'll the flag busi- ness. People who had never thought of being patriotic before suddenly dis covered their fondness for "Old Glory. Everywhere you went you saw flags. Children waved them at school enter tainments, picnics and on every holi- day. They covered pulpits and fes- tooned barrooms and waved from the windows of offices, stores and homes. This made good business for the people who sold flags
 One of the biggest New York de- partment stores of those days had made an especially good thing of it's flag sales. Flags, you may know or you may not know, are part of the merchandise for the toy department in department stores. The toy buyer of this particular department store was at that time A. B. Feder, Jr. He was live wire in the toy business and he had managed to keep his store sup piled with the best flags at the lowest retail price, with the result that he

When Smiths Were Rare.

The great family of Smith, Brown Jones and Robinson had not spread so far over London when the first di. rectory was published as it has now the London Chronicle observes. Only IS Smiths, 10 Browns, g Joneses and 4 Robinsons figure in it, the Cooks Halls, Hills and Kings being almost as numerous. There were then but five London bankers, or "goldsmiths that keep running cash" as the direc tory describes them-Richard Elan chard and Child, at the Marygold, in Fleet street; MT. Coggs, in the Strand at the Kings Head; Banjamin Hinton at the Flower de Luce, in Lombard street; James Herriott, at the Naked Boy, in Fleet street; James Johnson at the Three Flower de Luces, in Lom bard street.

made neat profit from the wartime patriotism of the Americans.
 One evening MT. Feder and an asso- ciate in the buying business were walking in the gloaming after work in the store was done, when MT. Feder happened to open conversation he never forgot.
 There is one sure thing about the toy business" he said to his compan- ion. "We may make good sales in some things, but we will never make such good money again on flags"
 "No," said his companion. The war is over and the big demand for flags with it. That is, of course, un- less another war should break out"
 "Yes," unused MT. Feeder, "a war or some other national calamity-say the assassination of president or some thing like that-would remind the people again that they are American citizens"
 Tt is an i'll wind that brings no one any good" commented his companion.
 Quick to See the Opportunity.
 This was in the spring of 1899, just a few months after the end of the Spanish war. Two years and half later, on the morning of September IA, 1901, MT. Feeder was dressing leisurely in his home in upper New York. He was still employed as toy buyer for one of the biggest New York depart ment stores. His mother woke early and, like hosts of newspaper readers all over the United States that morn ing, learned that President Mckinley had died at Buffalo. She hastened to her son and told him the alarming news. After the first shock of 1t the buyer recalled, as if it had happened but yesterday, the words he had spo- ken to his friend on Broadway two years before.
 Mr. Feder didn't wait to finish his breakfast. He grasped his hat and hurried to the nearest elevated rail road station.
 By eight o'clock he was at the Bat. tery, six or eight miles from home in the neighborhood of the wholesale flag dealers. It was before the days of taxis, so he hailed cab that was standing near the Battery place sta

tion. He jumped in and told the sleepy driver tha- he warted him for the next hour or two, He drove first to the biggest wholesale dealer in flags. He was recognized as one of the leading department store buyers, and no one thought anything about his presence except that it was rather an early hour to be doing business.
 q want all the flags you have in your house." MT. Feder said.
 After due deliberation and in con- sideration of the large order the flag dealer decided to let him have his en- tire stock at a very reasonable figure.
 MT. Feeder stayed in this wareroom long enough to close up the deal and then dashed to the cab waiting for him and hurried to the next wholesale flag dealer.
 Good morning." he said cheerfully. q am looking for some flags. If take all you have on hand what terms will you let me have on them?"
 Well" unused the dealer, seeing it is you and seeing you want all l have, and seeing that your house pays promptly, and seeing that there isn't much demand for flags nowadays now that the war is over-I'll let them go at fifty and ten off the list"
 Feeder finished the deal, hurried to his cab and went to the next flag deal CTS

hours MT. Feder had all the available flags in the city in the receiving room of the department store. In the meantime other department store buy CTS had gradually come to the realiza- tion that there would be run on flags in view of the death of the president. Many of them realized this first when stores and asked for them. Then the buyers hurried to the wholesale deal CTS, but not one flag was to be had.
 "Mr. Feder bought them all," the dealers said. He has got every flag in New York city except a few in retail houses"
 That was one of the little coups that lend excitement to MT. Feder's busi- ness as one of the leading toy buyers of the country.
 It was also one of the shrewd pieces of business that make department store owners and directors bid high for his services.
 Last autumn, when one of the de- partment stores in Manhattan moved from downtown to an uptown site, the owner of the store engaged Mir. Feder as buyer for the trunk and sporting goods department All sum- mer MT. Feder worked with the other buyers to get together the merchan- disc for the opening of the store in the autumn. Late one evening few weeks before the new store was going to open the owner sent for MT. Feeder to come to his office.
 As Head of Department. "You have had experience as a toy buyer, MT. Feder?" he said by way of beginning his proposition.
 "Yes," said Mr. Feeder, T began in a wholesale house and I was a toy buyer for dozen years more or less. That is the line about which know most
 'I thought so," said the owner. As you know, we have never had toy department. But have decided that 1 we ought to have one. I have also decided that you are the man to take charge of it."
 This happened the twenty-fifth ot September, and the new department was to open on the twenty-seventh oi October It meant that within foul

Had a Corner on Flags.

Here he made another bargain, and from there he went to the other deal CTS, until he had cleared up every available flag there was in New York city, and he got them all at from twen- ty to fifty per cent off listed prices.
 AS buyer for his firm he had author ity to spend his allotted money as he chose, and if he wanted to spend it making a corner in flags that was his business. He imagined that there would be big demand for flags, but even if there were not, he figured, flags were not likely to go out of fashion, and they were a reasonably safe in- vestment.

ORIGIN OF GREAT ARTS.

Gunpowder was discovered from
the falling of a spark on some ma
terial mixed in a mortar. Pendulum
clocks were invented after Galileo
stood observing the lamp in church
swinging to and fro. Electricity was
discovered by the observation that
pieces of rubbed glass attracted small
bits of paper. The stupendous results
of the steam engine may be traced
TO the boy who sat watching the
steam which came from the mouth
of a tea-kettle. The art of print
ing took it's origin from some rude
impressions taken, for the amuse-
ment of children, from letters cary
ed in the bark of a beech tree. The
telescope we owe to the children OF
spectacle maker, who placed two
or more spectacle glasses together
and looked through them at the dis
tant sky. Their elders saw them at
play and adapted their idea. Sir
Isaac Newton saw an apple fall to
the ground. Thinking on the phen-
omena he discovered the law OF
gravity.
