and in between times his rent or life
insurance falls due, understand me, it
would take so much enjoyment out of
riding in the automobile, that right
away he finds out the Innings amt up
to sample or the buttons amt Sewed
on correct or something. The automo-
bile dealers figured it right, Birsky. /
wish the waist business was on G. o.
D. basis, too. Because a concern which
sells goods for cash, Birsky, never gets
no cancellations from nobody"
''Never mind. Zapp. You would see
that pretty soon the automobiles
would sell on credit, too. People amt
going to be so crazy to buy automo-
biles, now that gasolene is showed up
SO high Birsky said.
''Well, that don't change my plans
any," Zapp replied, because the way
the waist business is after Christmas,
Birsky, if. 1 owned the Hudson River
and automobiles was run with water,
1 couldn't afford pushcart even"
even so, Zapp, there's lots of fell
lerS in the delicateSSen business which
is obliged to run automobile deliveries,
and for every penny they've got to
pay more on gasolene, they stick two
furters.''
THAT again is something for a
manufacturer of sodamint oder pepsin
tablets to worry about, not me, Birsky.
Anyhow, Birsky, if cigar stores
couldn't sell cigarettes TO minors I'M
der the age of sixteen, there ought TO
be a law prohibiting dlicateSSen deal
erS from selling their machshovos to
adults over the age of twenty-five. In
fact. Birsky, if Kansas and Maine
would go prohibition on delicatessen
instead of schnapps, Birsky, not only
would it be better for business, yum
derstand, but there would be less
crimes also, on account there i more
fellerS feels like committing murder
the day after one delicatessen supper
than ten minutes after a hundred high
balls, and don't you forget it And
that's only one reason why Rockefeller
amt doing no harm by putting up the
price of gasolene, because when am
getting heart trouble from crossing
Fifth Avenue at o'clock in the after
noon, I wish automobiles was run, not
| with gasolene. but with benedictine
| oder bay rum at a dollar thirty-five a
quart"
That's where you're making a big
mistake, Zapp,' Birsky said. "Nowa-
days for an up-to-date teller, in a way,
an automobile is. so-to-speak, practic-
ally a necessity"
| "a four thousand dollar automobile
is necessity 70 Zapp cried

and lighter and everything up to date.
Such car is a gen'wine bargain at

IF you could afford the thousand
dollars, Birsky." Zapp said. (which the
way the realestate business is dead
nowadays, Birsky, you've got about as
much chance as I've got to buy thou

Birsky hid the lower one-third of
his bushes in a cup of coffee.

Birsky's face grew a shade more
crimson.

extension" he explained huskily and
gulped down the remainder of his cof-
fee.
'How much was that mortgage?''
Zapp inquired
"Just fifteen hundred dollars" Bir-
sky admitted.

Pearl Fishers.

1t is well-known fact that pearl
fishers and divers do not live long.
They often have to dive for 100 feet
or more without any special outfit, and
the strain wears them out before their
lives are really half over. From a
depth of 100 feet a pearl diver usually
brings up two oyster shells at a time.
1t is exciting work. The diver never
knows whether he has brought to the
surface a shell inclosing a priceless
gem or not. The Malay pearl divers
are, perhaps, the finest in the world
When he is going to dive, the Malay
slowly lowers himself down from the
side of the boat to the water and takes
several breaths, each breath getting
deeper and deeper. Finally, he takes a
tremendously long breath. turns head
downward, and plunges into the ocean
depths. In two, three or perhaps four,
minutes his form is seen in the water
coming up. His face is turned up
ward. His strong hands beat the wa
ter away from under him in vigorous
downward sweeps. His face looks ter
ribly strained. AT last, breathless, ex-
hausted, he reaches the surface and is
hauled into the boat, where he lies
quite still for a few moments, appar-
emily exhausted. But in comparative
Iy few minutes he is ready to plunge
again.

Mr.. W7namaker Able to Turn at Once
to Any Book on His Miles

A couple of weeks ago John Wanna
maker did something which he said he
had not done before in his 50 years ex-
perience as a merchant. He opened
his store on Sunday. That will inter
est you even less than something else
which Mr.. Wanamaker did that after
noon and which was told me by one of
the dozen persons who were present,
writes "Girard'' in the Philadelphia
Public Ledger. There had been din
ner for a party of distinguished Jap
anese visitors, and Mr.. Wanamaker
volunteered to show the oriental gen.
tlemen the inside of his store.
Before departing from the big gran
lite building Mr.. Wanamaker said to
the chief guest:
Baron, there is book here 1 wish
you to have"
Naming another book, Mr.. Wanna
maker walked to another case and got
1t. Then he proceeded to present to
each gentleman present a volume OF
two, in each instance naming what he
intended to give before he went to a
bookshelf to get it Which feat OF
memory caused my informant to re
mark when he related the incident to
me:

lives beyond his means is that the

1THE HIGH cost of living is tie,

rible expensive nowadays"
Louis Birsky the real estater
remarked, as he seated himself oppo-
site Barnet Zapp in Wasserbaure's
Restaurant. This observation had
been provoked by a notice in the bill of
fare that on and after a certain date
the 40 cent regular dinner would be
increased to so cents, and Zapp looked
up from a plate of lokshen soup to in
dorse Birsky's sentiment with a nod so
emphatic that drops of the greasy fluid
were scattered all around.
ST bet YER Zapp said, cleansing his
mustache with his lower lip. ''Only
this morning see it costs Marcus Fast
two thousand dollars for an automo-
bile already"
you don't tell mer' Louis ex-
claimed.
"And Harris Shapolnik must also got
to pay for some diamonds fifteen hun
dred dollars" Zapp continued, while
Birsky wagged his head from side to
side and made incoherent noises
through his nose indicative of shocked
surprise.
'I always thought them two fellers
was pretty saving with their money"
he commented.
"A couple of tighter propositions
don't exist at ALL" Zapp agreed
"Then what do they go to work and
buy all them things for?" Birsl1y asked.
''WhO says they bought 'em?" Zapp
1ked. ''An L says is that Marcus Fast
pays two thousand dollars for an auto
mobile and Harris ShapOlnik pays fif-
teen hundred dollars for some dia-
monds, understand me, but it was Ja-
cob }. Rebfield who bought the auto
mobile and Sam PITT bought the dia-
monds Also L could prove it to you,
black on white"
Here he produced clipping which
read as follows:
BUSINESS TROUBLES
Rebheld & Pitz.-Schedules in the
bankruptcy of Rebfield & PITT, cloak
and suit manufacturers were filed in
the office of the clerk of the United
States District Court yesterday. The
principal creditors are as follows:

what did them Franco-American
people pay for?' Birsky asked. "a
steam yatch?"
u couldn't tell you exactly" Zapp
replied, but you could reckon twenty
five hundred dollars that Mrs. Reb-
year ago, understand me, and another
couple thousand that Bertha PITT is
the Belle of the Boardwalk in Arverne
last summer, Birsky, and that's the
way it goes
Them two boys certainly lived be-
yond their means" Zapp said.
''Anu it amt their fault that they
didn't live beyond Marcus Fast's
means and Harris Shapolnik's means
also, because when a business man
starts IN to live beyond his means,
BirSky, hes got a downtown con-
science and an uptown conscience.
That's why when Rebfield buys his au-
tomobile on Broadway and Fifty-sev-
enth Street for net cash, he didn't
worry himself how much he owes to a
couple of Canal Street woollen houses
like Marcus Fast and Harris Shapol-
mix
-'Ain't it funny how most of them ex-
travagant fellers is got such an elegant
reputation for good pay?" Birsky said
