ON DAD OVER BANK FAILURE WUllam McMurray tells a good story on the cheerful side of the suspension of the Oregon Trust ft Savings bank. In which his two young sons had deposited their savings. Wishing to Impress upon their minds that they should meet with cheerful fortitude the nps and downs of-this life, .he said to them at tne dinner table: "My boys. It .Is my painful duty this evening to 'inform you that you are a bunted community. The bank ia gone." ttyi mere was no . paling, oi ooyisn facea. He watched them closely, eurlous to note the effect, yet no change of countenance could be discerned on either one of the hopefuls. Seeing that they utterly failed to realize their con dition, tne ratner, witn a gr;m de termination to bring home to them a sense of their first financial calamity, went on gently: "Don't you understand T Th bank, where you banked your surplus, has suspended." A calm, ' unruffled gnze was returned from each youth, and then one of them remarked placidly: "Maybe you, didn't know it. pa, but before- we -went to California on that visit we went, down to tne bank and drawed out nearly all the money."

He accordingly set his alarm clock at the hour when the fiery orb elongated by terrific speed, sweeps gracefully across the eastern horizon to perform the function popularly believed by children and others to belong to tha old woman with her broom. Before re tiring he notified the other members of the household he would waken them should his cometship be visible. "But everything went wrong," said the old man this morning as he sleepily stretched his arms and yawned. "Is the first place the alarm clock acted as an alarm clocks do wnen you want them to perform at an unusual hour. Instead of ringing me out of my nap at 3 o'clock, the bell it sounded like a fire alarm gong commenced ringing at 12:30. I got up, shut off the clock and started for the window when I heard a streetcar whizzing by.' Then I looked at the clock, swore softly, readjusted the mechanism and went back to bed. "An hour later th Instrument that would ' have been popular with the Spanish inquisition roused m again. But I heard the owl car going by and again set the alarm. Th next time was the third and proved to be the charm, although Instead of going off at , the clock bussed forth at 1:46. "Well, I got up. Partially dressed, for I expected great things to follow, and want to the window. Did I see th comet? Not a comet, nor a star, nor van a moon. But clouds T There were enough clouds In th sky to discourage a rainmaker. From east to west and from north to south, the clouds lay In banks so close to th earth they cast a reflection of th city's electrio lights. I waited 10 minutes and then went back to bed, after setting th alarm clock for :0. "Then what do you think happened? That alarm clock that seemed so anx ious to so off venr hour of th night. didn't explods until 7:06. I missed my I cold bath, hastily a wall-owed my Break fast in aulDS and nearly had a fight with the conductor on the oar oomlngl to th city." "Will you get up tonight to see the! comet." was innocently asked.
