TYPEWRITER DOCTORS. Men Who Go to Office to Office BepaJring tlia Machines. Through tho Whimsicalities of Feminine Operators and tho Carelessness of Of fice Boys, the Mechanical Physi cians Are Kept Busy. . The busiest professional men nowa days are the doctors of typewriters. These go about from oftiee to office putting1 machines in repair, and the reason for their preat activity this month is on account of the return of the regular operator from tho summer vacation. All this sounds enigmatical. But it is true, says the Nov? York Sun. When a typewriter goes away upon her vacation she pets a substitute to sit in her place and do her work. The substitute appears promptly tho first day, takes off the tin inclosure from the celluloid keys, gives a gentle "tap! tap!" and throws up her hands in hor ror. She cannot use a machine that works so hard. Where is the man who regulates typewriters, and will he not come to make the machine work easier? This he does, and for two weeks all goes well. Then the regular operator comes home. The regular operator is proud, nay, haughty. She feels that the machine must of necessity have been spoiled by the substitute, and her senses are keen ly alert for faults in the machine. The first tap tells her that it works too easily, and the second convinces her that the action is so light that she will make mistakes every minute. So the typewriter doctor is called to put the machine back precisely as it was. There is a large life insurance build ing up town where a regular call is left for the typewriter repairer. He ap v pears usually at one o'clock and puts in the rest of his day regulating the machines. Sometimes he does not get around until the middle of the after noon, and then there is 'a great call for him. Some one of the one hundred and fifty machines in the building is sure to be out of order, and the oper ator must sit idle until the repairs are made. The repairer must carry ink ribbons and all the smaller parts of type machines, for there is no telling what part may have yielded to the strain of vigorous hands. There are over one hundred men employed in this way in Xew York city. For the most part they are in the pay of the type writing establishments, and are sent out by them. A few work independent ly, but the work docs not pay them then very well, and they finally give it up and go in the employ of the large concerns. It is said bv the machine doctors that the typewriters are as sensitive as hu- i man beings and know who is handling I them. A good machine that has been 1 properly treated "sulks' when new j and unskilled hands take hold of it, and sometimes it refuses to work. As j soon as it leeisme regular stroke 01 its own operator it is all right. This is a typewriter's superstition. And strange to say it turns out in accord ance with actual fact. All sorts of things "happen" to type writing machines, ivjmettmes they 1-J n-... T . . them for the sweep woman to do her I work. Occasionally they are experi- monted unon bv the same small lov to I thc-ir own m-eat de.trtment.: nntl. a-'atn. I tVnT flrp tr.at..l ttl il.w nt nil .if Ji irt ;..

I "YVhv do the typewriting machine ' companies keep repairers?"" was asked j of a man who makes a V.asinerv of keep ing' a certain kind of machine in orccr. '"Because they are obliged t elo so to defend the reputation of their ma chines," replied the repairer. "Sup pose a new machine ir'"t oi:t of i:r.'.er and the company would n t repair it unless ct great ce;st.

An Exasperated te-.i!Jiiier'n I-atience ITora Ont Jnsiaied in Ctirt. A case 'was recently tried in a jus tice's court in rittsi.urjrh which, if established as a precedent, will leae! to a notable reform, says the Washington Star. One v-craan emple.ye:l another to mak; a dress fcr her, anil :nsni';e ' re peated calls and constant protestations that she had nothing- to wear thtit did not make her look like a perfect fri-;ht. the dressmaker continued to ilelay the manufacture cf the frown with that calm and superior scorn so rna::y ci the class affect. The eustorner at rrrew desperate and in a moment of frenzied ang-er sailed into the elrewmakcr and punished her physically in a hair-puli-insr, face-scratchincr. hysterica!, wem- anlyway. The assailant war, arreted and tried befcrc a justice, who pronir.t- ly dismissed the action. The p':s;;ib:l- j ity that other courts msjr follow a J similar course in similar cases awakens a glad tune of hope in the heart. When a woman can take out of her dress maker or a man out of his tailor sub stantial repayment of soul frr thy vex ation and eli.-;appointment incident upon the .everlasting delay in finishing1 a dress or a suit the milleniura will sure ly be getting' close to its place in the calendar. Consumption In tlto Adirondack. The assertion of physicians that con sumption of the lungs' is infectious has been seized upon by some hotels in the Adirondacks as an excuse for denying admittance to consumptives. At such hotels the advent of a suspect is re ceived by ihc proprietor with uneasy inspection. When the proprietor is sure as to the condition of the unwel come guest the latter is gently remind ed that the hotel circular discriminates against such as he. The result is that a shogle day is about the limit of stay in such cases. LOVE AND CASTE. A Match Broken Off Because Money antl Bank Bun Aloul of Each Other Tho last Loudon season is said to have been almost tho worst on record for matchmaking. Tho number of engage ments publicly auuouncod is surprising ly small, and ono of tho. most interest ing, that of Lord Willonghby de Eres by, M. P., eldest sou of tho Earl of An caster, to Miss Muriel Wilson, the youngest daughter of Arthur Wilson of Trau by Croft, has beeu broken off for reasons unknown to tho public at large. The lady's parents were the Prince of Wales' hosts at tho timo of the dread ful baccarat scandal. They aro enor mously wealthy, mid their daughter is pretty end nmh.ble, so that polite so ciety is much worried as to tho cause of the quarrel which lias led to such a dis astrous result. Tho fault is believed to rest mainly with the parents. Arthur Wilson, though a plebeian by birth and a shipowner by trade, thinks himself as good as ai:y earl living, ami ho is en titled to that faith in his social stand ing, seeing that ho has hobnobbed with princes 0:1 mere than one occasion. On tho other Hand, tho Earl of Au cast is not r.n ordinary peer. He holds tho exalted post of lord great chamber lain and is tho head of ono of tho most ancient families in this country, with a lino old fashioned ccntenspt for upstart-bour-coise. Eus polite society a?i:s, If ho didn't like tho family into which l.is sou proposed to marry, why did ho con sent to tho match? The parties concern ed invited controversy over what would ordinarily bo a purely private matter by tho ostentatious manner in which engagement and rupture nlikahavobecu announced. Xew York Sun's Loudon Letter. A Household Teasure. D. W. Fuller, of Cnnajohario, X. Y. says that he always keeps Dr. King's New Discovery ia the house and his family has always found the very best results follow its use: that he "would not be without it, if procurable. G. A. Dyke-man Druggist, Catekill, X.

An amusing little paragraph is going the rounds regarding a gentleman who recently received an invitation to din ner at Marlborough House.
