Tl-lE RETIRED BURGLAR.
He Finds It Hard to Accustomjnlmself to
.. Ordinary Hours of Living. .
“My chief trouble now, ”said the re-
tired burglar; “is about my hours. I
have been so long accustomed to work-
ing nights and sleeping days that I find
it difficult to change back to the hours of
other folks. Instead of having my break-
fast at 7 o’clock in the morning I have
it at 7._o’clock in the evening. Some
folks make their dinner the last meal
in the day, but I never could get ‘used
to that. I canlsleep better "on a light
_ meal, so I have my dinner in the_mid-
dle of the day—I mean the middle. of
the night—and my supper about 5
o’clock in the morning.
_ “This schedule works all right for
' the first half of the night, There’s plem
ty of life then, and I can go to the theal
ter’ and one place and another, but after
dinner, I must say, I find it pretty
tedious. When. I was at work and my
mind was occupied, I never thought
anything about it, but now it is differ-
ent. This is a bigger town than it used
to be, and it’s open all night. -There’s
plenty of occupations nowadays that
people work at all night, but the people
that work at ’em are working at ’em.
You don’t see ’em around the streets,
and the general fact remains that most
people work days and sleep nights, and
the cold fact is that from dinner time
to supper time I feel sort 0’ lost.
“But I’m not discouraged. I don’t sup-
pose I could change the habits of a life-
time in a minute, and I shall just keep
on trying till I get my'hours shifted
around again like other people’s. ”—-

"AT A TENEMENT, WINDOW.
Sometimes my needle stops with half drawn
thread. _ \
(Not often, though. Each moment's waste
. means bread, '
And missing stitches leave the little mouths
unfed.) .
I look down on the dingy court below.
A tuft of grass is all it has to show, '
A broken pump where thirsty children’ go.
Above there shines a bit of sky so small
That it might be a passing bluebird’s wing.
One tree leans up against the high brick wall,
And there the sparrows twitter of the spring
Until they waken in my heart a cry ’
0f hunger that no bread can satisfy.
Always before when May time took her way
Across the fields I followed close. Today
I can but dream of all her bright array.
My work drops down. Across the sill I lean
And long-with bitter longing for unseen
Rain freshened paths where budding woods
" grow green. ‘
The water trickles from the pump below
Upon the stones. With eyes half shut I hear
It falling inn pool where rushes grow
And feel a cooling presence drawing near.
And now the sparrows chirp again. No, harkl
A singing as of some far meadow lark.
It is the same old miracle applied
Unto myself, that on the mountain side
The few small loaves and fishes multiplied.
Behold how strange and sweet the mystery!
The birds, the broken pump, the gnarled tree
Have brought the fullness of the spring to me,
For in the leaves that mstle by the wall
All forests find a tongue. And so that grass
Can with its struggling tuft of green recall
Wide bloom filled meadows where the cattle
pass. -
How it can be but dimly I divine.
These crumbs, God given, make the whole loaf
mine.

H ER ALARM ' CLOCK.
And Why She Had Good Reason For Be-
ing Incensed Against It.
A suburban woman not long since
purchased an alarm clock. It was a fat
nickel plated little affair with the cus-
tomary gong atop. The woman got the
clock because she felt an overwhelming
desire to play the role of the early bird.
That night, therefore, she set the time-
piece according to the specified direc-
tions. But for some reason or other the
clock failed to go off. The woman gave
- it a second trial. Again it played her
false: She took it to the suburban jew-
eler. He said the clock was outrageous:
1y out of order, hinted darkly at the dis-
honesty cf any individual who would
palm off such an article as perfect goods
and prescribed a course of treatment
which he would be gracious enough to
administer for the sum of ’7 5 cents. The
clock’s original cost had been $1.50.
The night that it came back from the
sub. than jeweler the woman wound it
ity. This time the role of the early bird
would be .hers for certain. The next
morning, however, it failed to go off,
just as before. The woman took it back
to the suburban jeweler, who received
it with an “I told you that clock was
terribly out of order. ” Encore, 7 5 cents.
Time passed, the clock, like the cat
in the canticle, “came back,” and the
woman woke up (some hours later than
she had intended) only to find that it
hadn’t "‘gone off” again. She now took
the troublesome timepiece to the city
jeweler from whom she had first pur-
chased it. He declared the clock to have
been all right until “ruined” by the
suburban jeweler, but consented to re-
pair it—also to charge $1 for so doing.
r ,The woman then bore it home in tri-
umph. 7
drama was enacted; and the woman was
once more unable to assume the role of
the early bird. Had she been a man she
might have sworn. As it was, she con-
fided her woes to the breakfast tableful.
“ Why, that cloek’s been going off all the
time,” observed the woman who occu-
pied the neighboring room to thaclock
owner. “It’s waked me up every morn-
ing regularly. The trouble is it hasn’t
waked you. ” ‘
Wherenpon the woman felt more in-
censed against the clock than ever. To
think of its having so little discrimina-
tion and discretion as to wake up the
wrong person !—New York Sun.
Queer Facts About Air.-
The celebrated chemist of the six-
teenth century who argued that it would
be impossible for us to live on the
earth’s surface if the atmosphere should
suddenly increase to twice its present
thickness could not have been far wrong,
after all—that is, if the experiments of
Dr. Arnott are to be taken as conclu-
sive. In his,observations on atmospheric
pressure at the bottoms of the deep
mining shafts of Europe, Professor Ar-
nott has found that the change between
the readings of a barometer at the bot-
tom of a 4,000 feet shaft and one at the
surface is great enough to warrant him
in making the statement that air at the
bottom of a shaft 20 miles deep‘would
be as dense asmwater. Figuring on the
same ratio, he finds that if a hole could
be sunk 40 miles into the bowels of the
earth the density of the air at the bot-.
tom would be as great as that of quick-
silver. —St. Louis Republic.
'Women on the Bicycle. ’
What a pretty thing a woman on a
bicycle is! Her pose is good. She sits
erect and rides easily, gracefully. Most
men stoop while riding. Women sit
erect. Men always seem to be on busi-
ness bent and in a hurry. Women appear
to ride for pleasure and in no hurry.
Men have the bicycle face, arising, it is
said, from the care they have to bestow
to avoid accident. Women have the air
of easy indifference, unconsciousness of
risk. They ride as the true goddess
walked—Cincinnati Commercial Ga-

MIMIORv AND REASON. '
Indication That This Monkey Is Endowed
\Vlth a Share of Each. _
“That the monkey possesses intelli-
gence to a considerable degree is proba-
bly true,” said a hotel proprietor who
has a small menagerie on his premises.
“I believe, however, much of the intel-
ligence with which that animal is cred-
ited is due to his love of mimicry.
“The other day two young men with
two girls were at the monkey’s cage
feeding him peanuts. One' of the girls
was chewing-gum, and one of the men
suggested . that she give the monkey
some, expecting that if he took it in his.
mouth it would stick to his teeth, and
he would make sorry work of trying to
chew it. . The girl at once. parted with
the sweet morsel she was so industrious-
ly chewing, extending it toward the
cage. The monkey grabbed it instantly
and put it into his mouth, but instead
of chewing it, or attempting to, began
pulling it out in small ribbons, as chil-
dren are frequently seen to do. When
he had it all out of his month, he rolled
it into a compact ‘ball between his
hands, threw it into his met-1th and be-
gan the operation again. He appeared
to enjoy the performance as much as his
visitors. That was imitation. ”
“That’s all right,” rejoined another,
“but I had an experience with that
same monkey wherein he displayed in-
telligence. I was by the cage smoking
one day, and I thought to annoy him by
blowing smoke in his face. I was much
surprised to find that, instead of being
annoyed, he enjoyed it, as was evi-
denced by his edging up as - near me as
possible to receive‘ the Emoke in larger
volumes. Soon he began scratching
himself at the point where most of the
smoke came against him. When I had
smoked one side for a few minutes, he
would turn squarely round to have the
other side treated in the same way.
Then he sat up directly in front of me
and received the smoke squarely in the
face and neck. I don’t know whether
he held his breath, but he did not cough,
sneeze or wince a particle. To complete
the job he then sat with his back toward
me, and it would have done you good
to have seen him throw his hind feet
over his back and scratch. It made me
think of the kickers of a hay tedder in
motion. N ow that monkey knew,
through some sort 'of intelligence, that
nothing will send fleas and other insects
to the Surface or stupefy them as effect-
ively as tobacco smoke. ”—Utica Ob-

COLLEGE GIRLS AND~MARRIAGE.
Bits of Confession That Throw a Light on
the Question.
I have no doubt that the remaining
cause of the low marriage rate is that
many men’disliko intellectual Women——
whether because suchwomen are really
disagreeable or because men’s taste is at
fault I shall not try to determine. And
even among those who like 'them as
who‘made this confession:
“I never expected to marry the sort of
girl I did. You know I always believed
in intellectual equality and all that
and had good friendships with the col-
lege girls. But, you See, you girls hadn’t
any illusions about us. After you had
seen us hanging at the board on problems
degrees yourselves, you couldn’t imagine
us wonders just because we had gone
through college, and when‘I met a‘dear
little girl that thought I know every-
thing—why, it just keeled me right
over. It was a feeling I had no idea of. ”
And the college woman answered:
“I will betray something to you. Lots
ofus are just as unrcformed as you. We
want just as much to look up to our hus-
bands as you want to be looked up to.
Only of course the more we know the
harder it is to find somebody to meet the
want. Probably the equal marriage is
really the ideal one, and everybody will
come to prefer it some day. But per-
sonally I like men to be superior to me.
Only I’ll tell you what I don’t like in
them—the wish to keep ahead .of us by
holding us back, like spoiled children
that want to be given the game and
then admired for their skill. If men
would encourage us to do our very best,
and then do still better themselves, it
ought to be good for civilization-”—

No Precedent. ‘
During a session of the territorial leg-
islature of Montana, held more than 30
years ago, a measure was introduced
which appeared to some people to in—
volve serious constitutional questions.
One man, who was supposed to possess
great oratorical powers, declaimed fierce-
ly against the measure, claiming that it
was “clearly in opposition ft? the great
principles of Magna Charta, which the
brave barons in days of old had wrested-
from King John, a blessed result of a
bloody conflict.” ' .
A lanyer, more famed for his sturdy
common sense than for erudition, rose
immediately to reply to this burst of
fiery eloquence, evidently bent on mak-
ing it clear that he for one was not to
be overcome by high sounding words or
obscure allusions. » ‘
“It’s of mighty little importance
what the opinions of King John and his
man McCarthy were,” he announced
firmly, adding that it was high time for
legislative bodies of Montana, to’think
and act for themselves without any refer-
ence to the principles which gOverned
the remote authorities quoted by his
colleague. L
The first orato'r’s speech had made
some impression, but the retort was re‘
ceived with the enthusiasm which it
deserved, and it was owing to Main-
fluence rather than that of his more
brilliant predecessor that the measure.
