Three-eighths of One's Existence la I'rtactlculljr Wasted-Tims 1'aeseJ. la Sleeping, Kntlnir, Unimportant Acta, Uaeleaa 1'uranlta and Recreations. "I read the cHtltnato prepared re cently by the British government with reference to longevity among men la the amy," wild a gentleman who Is fond of, mathematics to a Phil adelphia Inquirer reporter, "and I do not cure how much men may figure on the lengthening of life's average the fact Is, a fellow doesu't live ho long af ter all. Life la very short when wo come to think of It. It Is. Indeed, a fitful fever, to borrow the simile of tho poet, and the distance between tho cra dle and the tomb Is the spun of one's hand. Mow much of 11 man's life Is devoted to tho actual work of accom pllHhlng whatever his highest aim may be? Did you ever think about llgurlug on this problem? I have, because, I guess, I happen to have a penchant for mathematics. Hut It Is Interesting for other reasons. Of course, a fellow docs nothing until after his L'lst birthday. He must attain his majority bofore he enters upon the serious duties of life. Ilefore this time he Is passing the pre paratory stages of life, and, theoreti cally, .s equipping himself for Its seri ous battles. Fifty years Is the life of the average man, although life's gen eral average llgurcs down to a point below this. "(live the average man thirty years beyond tho period when ho becomes of age, I guess It would be sufo to assume! even lu this rushing nge, that tho aver age man will spend about six hours a day In sleeping, and one hour and thirty minutes In eating, allowing for tho time It takes him to go to and from his meals and In preparing for tho table. We might safely figure that he spends an average of one hour ami thirty min utes out of every twenty-four In other minor wuys-ln exchanging pleasan tries with his friends and chatting on topics unrelated to his business, lu winding his watch and In other Indul gences of nit Innocent kind. This would make a total of nine hours out of every twenty-four that a man spends In do lug things that are unrelated, in a strict sense, to his business. This amounts to three-eighths of tho life that Is before him. He has HO years lu which to do Ills work. Ho would do vote eleven years and three mouths to sleep and to other things, as Indicated, and would hiivo nineteen years and uluo mouths in which to do his Jlttle do. "Twenty years looks llko a good bltJmany foreigners ns Now York," writes of time, but when wo como to this fearful thing of living for n purpose, expecting to endear ourselves to our countrymen and to accumulate a llttlo money besides, tho time does not seem long. The time, Is renlly much shorter than this when we allow for Sundays and social gutherlugs nnd prayer meet ings ami things of that sort, but as theno fuuetious do not figure In every man's life I have left them out." FIXED FOR THE WINTER. Tamiierlns; with the Arrangements far n IIoj'm Comfort. Here's a uroblptn for Borough Su perintendent of Kducntlon John Walsh:' "Must a public school boy chango his clothing frequently, or does It make uo difference so far as his right to receive tho beuetlts of our free schools are con cerned?" An early consideration of this question will bo appreciated by a Twenty-fifth Wnrd Italian mother, and will relieve the mind of the princi pal of one of tho Twenty-fifth Ward public schools. The principal In ques tion lias temporarily decided tho mat ter lu the nlllrniatlve for sanitary rea sons. It may not be olllclally brought to Superintendent Walsh's attention. Ho Is at liberty, therefore, to treat this publication of the matter as ho sees tit. Kor obvious reasons, the number of tho sehool Is withheld. The question aroso In this way: One morning recently a eharncterlsi tleally garbed Italian woman piloted her 7-year-old hopeful to tho school lu question a ml asked to havo him admit ted. His face and hands looked as though they were complete strangers to water, and Instead of a coat tho up per part of the lKHly was encased lu a gunny sack, which hail been snugly lifted to his llgurc. Ills name, address and other qualifications were formally Jotted down and he was about to be sent to a class room when the observ nut principal's eye fell upon his lm provlsed coat, It looked as If It might have been Intended for an overcoat. Tho principal turned the boy over to a teacher to be shown to the wardrobe'. The toucher sought to explain matters by helping the youth off with his coat and was attempting to unfasten It, when his mother sprang forward with tho ejaculation: "You hurta dor boy, I.eavo dor boy alone. 1 sewa tier boy up for der wlu tor." "You've sowed the boy up for tho winter?" tho principal gasped. "Doesu't that thing come off?" "Noa; keepa der boy warm all win ter." "You mean Unit that bag Is put on him to stay all whiter?" "Alia winter. That way ho no catch cold." "When does ho wash himself?" "When der summer comes." "Well, you take him home at once," tho tudlgiumt principal declared, "and take that thing off him. Then give him a bath, That Is tho only way you can get hliu In here," She took him away, vowing to sea her friend, the alderman, and "have yer broke." Brooklyn Times. HE WANTED ENLIGHTENMENT. An Obacure Point tn History Hothered Illm-Ulfl They WhoopT He was a lonesome-looking old man having a scat In tho street car and ap parently seeking to avoid notice, but after riding three or four blocks he plucked up courage to stand up nnd any. "I'm a little Iwthered over s'unthln', and If any of you can help me out I'll bemuchobleeged. We all know that one of tho tilings Uiat brought on the revo lutionary war was that ten business In Boston harbor. Sooner than pay the tax on tho tea our patriots went aboard the ships and throwed it overboard. I guess you all understand It up to that p'lut as well as I do." None of tho pascngcrs admitted ig norauco and asked for information, and the old man got new courage and weut on. "Yes, history tells us thnt, and any body can read It. It don't say whether It was green or black tea, but I ain't goiu' to be too particular nbout that. Mebbe the two was mixed. Whut I complnln of is that history chops tho thing right off there'. It don't soy whether the patriots went homo nnd went to bed after tho fracns.or whether they went nround town whooping it up, same as we do after 'lection. I've some times thought they went to bed nnd had nuthln' to say, and ng'ln I've won dered If they didn't whoop 'er up nnd havo a gay old time. If any of you know anything about It I'd like to hear." Everybody was smiling or laughing, says tho Dotrolt free Press, and no body had given him any pointers when the conductor opened tho door and beckoned him out on the platform. "What for?" asked the old man. "You are talking too much." "I hnln't half talked." "You'll have to stop or get off." "Is that the law? Can a patriot bo choked right off in tho middle of a sen tonco?" "That's tho law on a street car." "T)':n, by Jim, I'll walk the rest of the way and bo dunied to you. I've set out to And out Bunthln', and If I can't do It on a street car I'll do It on foot. Yes, sir, I'll stop every ninn I meet Jll somebody can tell me whether them folks went to bed or whooped It up, and If they wIiooimmI, you can bet your bottom dollar thnt your Uncle Jim paints this town red to-night and wakes up In the cooler of tho morning.

I met n man In the Bowery ouo cold, wet, winter night selling shoe laces. Ho looked so hungry that I took him to a restaurant, where, nftcr I hud given him something to oat, he gave me his confidence. Ho tnlkcd five lan guages Italian, Spanish, German, French and Arabic with cqunl fluency, but did not know a word of English. , "But who wns ho?

He had lu pet son Interviewed half tho crowned inona rolm of Europo, and when this work grew commonplace he enlisted In the secret Information service of the German army. Sent on a mission Into Itussla, he committed a most serious blunder, nnd ho suddenly found him self wanted by two nrmies nt one time to be shot ns a spy.

The maker of a cheap American watch returned from Europo n fow days ago. bringing with him orders for 2.000,000 of his watches. Tho ouo order for 1,000,000 was given by W. E.

Mr. Scott has Introduced American ad vertising methods wherever Symond's stores have a branch, and tho watches will Ihj used In exploiting advertising proiKwItlons.

"I secured those orders," said tho American, "In the strongest kind of competition with German and Swiss watch manufacturers, uotwlthbtaudlug tho fact that they make a cheaper watch, but for real merit their watches are simply 'not n It' compared with tho watch we produce, and that Is pre cisely the wholo secret of our success In commanding tho whole market Our American makes are Blmply better goods, nnd tho people want them will have them."
