BROKER’S RIDE | COST $5 A MILE. The Predicament of Edward Wasserman, and How He Got Out of It. Mr. Edward Wasserman, the broker, 1s well known in the financial district as & wideawake person, but this reputation does not prevail to his credit in Jerney. He took a sleep over there Wednesday nigit that cont him about $150 in money and’no end of inconvenience. Mr. Wasserman had been to Chicago and was anxious to join his family at Lang Branch. He was on the Penn- aylvanta Hmited, which reaches Jersey City, at 6 octock. It was his intention to take the 6.10 on the Jersey Central for Long Branch, the last train out, but he Jearned In Philndelphia that he would not be able to make it. The conductor of the train figured a way to allow Mr. Wasserman fo get to Long Branch without coming in to Jer- y. In accordance with his plan serman left the train at the treet station In Newark, hired , made a wild dash to the Branch etreet station, and got there juat in time to catch the train to Ellgabethport, where there was ample time to catch the Jersey Central Long Branch train leaving Jersey Clty at 6.10, 8o satisfied with hirself was Mr. Was- serman that he sat down in the tation to think It over. The train for Long. Branch came in, but he made no move to board ft. The train pulled out, and Just as the last coach disappeared around the curve the broker woke up. What he sald would not look well in the columns of a great family news- paper. There were no more trains to Long Branch, and the alternative of going to New York for the night of hiring a special train presented itself. He concluded to hire the special train. * He rode to Elizabeth on the branch line and wired to the Pennsylvania of- His Costly Sleep. ficiala in Jersey City asking the coat of a special. The reply was that he could have a train all to himself for $100. “Bring on your train,” said Mr. Was- nerman, “and pick me up at Elizabeth.” While walting for the train he bought real wine for mahy wondering citizens of Hiizabeth, proclaiming to them that he had made large sums of money in Chicago and that nothing was too good for pim. fe special put him in Hollywood station, Long Branch, ut 9.33, and ten minutes later he was in the bosom of his family, His thirty-five mile ride on the special had cost him near % a alle, counting in what he had expended in molstening the Elizabeth thiret.

In Chancellor MacCracken's address to the graduating class of the New York Univeratty in the Metropolitan Opera- House Iast night he paid a tribute to “an anonymous friend," who recently made a substantial contribution, that he sald will enable the work of the Unl- versity to be carried on In the future on even a more liberal style than in the The hearers believed that he referred to Miss Helen Gould, who haa always shown great interest in the University, where her brother Frank was graduated, After referring to the recent diss sions in the faculty of the University’s School of Pedagogy, Dr. MacCracken nid: “The University has devolved the duty of the deanship of the faculty of peda- ogy for the next college year upon the Chancellor of the University, “The suggestion that the Chancellor shall for some time devote himnelf largely to pedagogy originated with a member of the Women's Advisory Com- mittee."? eee PATCHES. Why Brown Ones Come on Faces, When a woman can get rid of brown patches on her face by chang- ing her diet it is worth while for other women who care for their com- plexions to know something of the method. A lady in Michigan City, Ind., who does not want her name mentioned, says that coffee caused the brown patches on her face by first giving her stomach trouble, theh putting her nerves out of order, and the re- sult was shown in her complexion. She quit coffee and began using Postum Food Coffee and in lesa than a month the stomach trouble disap- peared and within two months her complexion cleared up and !s now fine and rosy. She’ speaks of a Mr. Knight and Gideon Hunt, of Westfield, Ind., whd have both been improved in health by leaving off coffee and taking In its place Postum Food Coffee, also a Mr. and Mrs, Jesse Stanley, of the same place, who were !n poor health and suffered from stomach trouble. They quit coffee and after using Postum -!a short time the result was natural sleep, return of appetite and a gain iintotrenweh as fast as nature will re- iid, She gives the names of a number of other persons who have been helped by leaving off coffee and tak- ing Postum Food Coffee. It Is a safe proposition that If any coffee user has stomach or nervous trouble, or bad complexion, he or she can get rid of the trouble by dis- continuing coffee taking Postum prove i by: ng ASS 7 A Camera Sensatron!
