We had taken my son to tho hos- Pital to be treated for a fractured arm. =A, Sheid, No. 325 West Fourth Street HE YAINTED. I sew en old man crossing Fourth Avenue at 54th Street.

THE UNUSUAL CONDUCTOR, I saw that a shower was coming Just as I stepped out of Hearn’s in idth Btrect, but foolishly thought it soon @ Wowld pass over. At ith Strect and Bighth Avenue the rain overtook us and we waited a few minutes for an’ Elghth Avenue car. It was fairly well filled, The steps of the car were high, First I helped Louise up—she's seven and a haif—then Nora, four, and finally Tom- my, three, 1 was doing my best to fol- low them when the gentlemanly con- ductor called loudly little lively, lady, this is not a pleasure car." © I'd like to meet that young man in a lonely pot for about five minutes.

Brooklyn. MYSTERY OF THE AGED MESSEN- GER AND THE TELEPHONE BOOTH. When a gray-haired district mes- eenger “boy” came into the drug store and marched straight for the telephone book the clerk called me over and sald, in a low voice: “Ho'll go into the booth {n a minute and pretend he's talking to some one. Watch,” Sure enough; the old man stepped into the booth, lifted the receiver to his ears but did not de- posit a nickel. I couldn't get the drift of what he Was saying to the tmagini person at the other end, but I did out “my boy” and “my boss.” "He used to do this every day,” the drus clerk told me, “but now he shows up only two or three times a week."—M Lundberg, 85th Street, Brooklyn.

Sneider, 30 Church Street. UNDER ONE MANAGEMENT. Side by side at 169th Street and Bos- ton Rond are a paint shop and a hard- ware store. I wanted a big bottle of oil of cedar and thought it might be a bit cheaper in the paint shop than fn the store. I was out of luck. “All sald the man, ‘fs the small I stepped into the hardware ‘The same salesman approached, the same small bottle of oil in his hand. He was smiling.

COURTESY and Satisfaction with every purchase Store Hours—9 to 5 Broadway at Ninth A Scotch Stone- cutter Whose Books some of us have read, Hugh Miller by name, says it is a fatal error for a workin) man to fall into the belie’ that his employment or trade lowers him in public estimation. In the recent great war men of every nation, rank of life, education, worldly station, mechanics and Iabor- ers, marching side by side under their country’s flag, did much to iron out the differences of position and level us up. It will never be again so much what a man does, as what he is and what he is striving to be in his family and civic life.
