Good location the lists with J. P. Morgan to admin- and lots of room for a good bin enter lster a haughty rebuke to :lu great tl-1 prise. . nancler. and Incidentally to treat him ; to a shave. It all arose from the fat and inter, sting envelope which 1SS3. who refused to give his name for rea sons of siue, found on the corner of Wall and Itroad streets tht week. The first hasty glance revealed the fact that it was full of money and checks, but l.StiS put temptation sternly be hind him. entered the office of Mr. Mor gan, and, according to his story, ad dressed the cashier as follows: "Say Cul, here's a million or so dat I picks up in front of your door. I guess de old man needs it worse dan me." "Me honest lad" replleJ the cashier according to 1 S63 "You'll grow up to be a second Theodore Roosevelt some day; I'll take your number an' you shall be rewarded." The envelope proved to contain $7000 in money and over $60,000 In checks and drafts. Vis ions of wealth blgan to flah before the boy's eyes. The next day, how ever, he received the following leter: Dear Sir: In reward for your hon esty I take gTeat pleasure in handing you $2 with the compliments of the Arm. Cashier J. P. Morgan & Co." Then says 1863, the storm of his righteous indignation burst. Hastily he indicted the following stinging re ply, enclosing with it the two dollars. "Cashier J. P. Morgan & Co. Dear! Sir: The pleasure is all yours. You can't hand me a lemon if I know it. Take this back and tell Morgan to get a shave with it. Messenger Xo 16 S3." "An dat goes" remarked 1S63 later.

It is rather astonishing to know that a generation brought up as It were on "Bedelia," and kindred songs which are picked up In a few minutes should have had its musical and patriotic education so far neglect- ed as to be unable to differentiate be tween the "rockets' red glare" and "the robins red brea-t" or between "Star Spangled Banner" and the "Still Spanking Banner." All this comes as a result of the orcbr of the District Superintendent that every child in his district, in grades from 5A to 3B, that Is, aed from .something like nine to fifteen should write from memory thr rtanzas of the national anihetnj v.-Uh-.-ut any spool a I preparation.

THE COOPER MEDICINE CO., DAYTON, OHIO. Gentlemen: "I have been laid up with rheumatism for over four years, during all this time I was umihle to work end suffered untold agonies from the excruciating pain. I used all the rheumatism remedies I could hear of and was treated by several physicians without relief, until finally the doctors advised me to try a change of climate. I heard of many people who were cured by Cooper's medi cines and purchased several bottles of the New Discovery and Quick Relief. I was amazed at the results. In ten days after I began their use, the pain and swelling had dis appeared and I was able to work and walk without suffer ing. I am thankful that a medicine has been discovered that will cure the dreaded rheumatism." C. JONES, Cedarshurg, Wis.

It U rather a surprl "Inir work, even for New York, and an inter est Iiik' work too, which the In Hillute under the illreetlon of Mr Charli-s KpniBUi.. Smith In carrying on. ItH object .Is through the reduced rates which II secures, lo brlriR tho best of Hi- legitimate- .Irarna wltliln the reach f people who are ordinarily unable to nl'ford the higher priced playhouses. The rtucccwH of this particular branch i ol tbo IriHiltutes work Is attested bv iho fact that since October 1, about 1 .",,000 persons have atteneded Brooklyn and Manhalan playhouses by means of lis reduced rateH. While .Shakes peare has heretofore been considered more u llnaiielally risky attraction for the select fc-w with bulbous forehead, Director Smith has made the surpris ing discovery that among the classes for which the Institute is working there Is a large demand for the works of the Bard of Avon. During a run of Shakesperlan productions here 3D00 tickets were sold at the reduced rates by the People's Institute for eight per formances, 1000 for the last perfor mance alone. The. typical Broadway "show" is not nearly so popular, and In this fact those who bemoan the do cadence of the stage through an uneeJ oated public taste may find more than a crumb of comfort. After all stranger things have happened than that the Kast Side should popularize the legiti mate drama. FOK L ITTI.ro Bister WllUoraon Was handy with the needle.
