A Cleveland Millionaire's New Version
Of It.
A reporter was talking to Thomas E.
Harley, the young Cleveland million -
Aire who is going to tour the world for
a. wife,
°`A young man of your means," said the
reporter enviously, `°should have no dif-
ficelty in. finding a wife, Me shouldn't
have to tour the world for her"
'"Oh, shouldn't he?" said Mr, Marley.
"Don't you know that the right kind of
1 doesn't judge a man by his money?
oney my friend, is the last thing to
judge anyone by.
"Yes," the young millionaire went on,
°ase who judges people by their money is
apt to fare like the Cleveland man who
save a dollar to each of his little sons.
""Now, boys,' said this foolish man,
IL am going away for a week. Take this
Stoney and see how much you can make
ext of it in my absence. To him that
Maes the best I'll give a fine present.'
"On his return at the week's end he
wiled the boys to him.
"'Wen, George, how have you succeed-
?' he said to the first.
George proudly took two dollars from
lax. pocket.
"`I have doubled my money, sir,' he
'Excellent,' cried the father. `And
"ou, John, have you done better still?'
moo, sir,' said John, sadly, `I have lost
rttt mine.'
"'Wretched boy,' the father exclaimed,
Sow did you lose it?"
"rI matched George,' faltered the lad..

WflEN TO WIND A WATCH.
The Meriting: Not the Evening, the Best
Timer the Watohmanker Says.
"Most people."* said the watchmaker,
"vvind their watches at night; but it
would be 'batter to wind them in the
morning.
"You see, we are liable to go to bed
at different hours, and aro to wind our
watch at irregular intervals; and it is
better to wind it regularly. Then we are
more liable to forget to wird. our watch`
at night than in the morning and so
may let it run down,
"But we are pretty sure to get up in
tho morning at our regular hour, what-
ever the hour at whichwe went to bed,
and so by winding it then we may in-
sure regularity of winding; and the
watch is brought to mind then, when
we put it on for use, and we are lens
likely to forget to wind it.
"So morning is the best -time to wind a
watch, if you can get yourself into the
habit of winding it then."

Fair and Unfair Burials.
The jurisdictional dispute between the
woodworkers' and the carpenters' unions
has reached the coffin industry, and
there is considerable doubt in a union
man's mind as to what style of a coffin
to purchase in order to secure the pro-
perly labeled union article. Even the
Union Burial Association, organized es-
pecially to decide this matter, is at a
loss to decide the matter and is selling
caskets bearing the label 'of the carpen-
ters' union, which the wood workers de-
clare to be non-union.
The carpenters claim the exclusive
right to place their labels on caskets and
the woodworkers declare if a man is bur-
ied in a coffin bearing such a label he '
goes to his last resting place to remain
through all eternity in an "unfair" arts- 1
cle. The Chicago Federation of Labor
has been asked to appoint a committtee
to pass upon the merits of the dispute.—

The Teddy Bear destroys the instinct of

She put me away lest summer, and told me
ehe didn't care;
She was weary of lips like cherries, and pink
cheeks and golden hair;
She had fallen In love, she whispered, with
a "cute" little Teddy Bear!
So, I've waited here in the darkness at her
Highness' commands;
Oh, the hours I've spent in longing for the
touch of her baby hands!
For e'en though she loves another, she holds
me in iron bands.
It my rival was only handsome I would
never shed a tear,
But ugh, that horrid monster, that never
would let come near.
Oh, the thought of that Bear and her High-
ness is driving me mad, I fear.
But I hope some bright, bright morntag, she
will turn to her love of old,
And the Teddy Bear's place wil be taken by
her dolly's bend of gold;
And the arms of her loving Hig'haness will
my waiting arms enfold!

Some years ago the dear old soul

Slept With His Fathers.
A certain type of story, having the
sodden and terse conclusion to a direct
statement, has been claimed as purely
American, says Marshall P. Wilder.
For instance: "Willie 'ones loaded and
fired a cannon yesterday. The funeral
will be held to -morrow."
But the truth is, it is older than Amer-
ica; it is very venerable. If you will
turn to the twelfth and thirteenth verses'
of the sixteenth chapter of II. Chronicled
you will find these words:
"And Asa in the thirty and ninth year
of his reign was diseased in his feet,
until his disease was exceedingly great;
yet in his disease he sought not to the
Lord, but to the physicians. And Asa
slept with his fathers"
