Impatience Is a maludy that afflicts

Is manliest Ini many ways. Long be­
fore a train reaches the station many
get up nnd stand In the aisle as if
that would cause the train to arrive a
bit sooner. Some feel that It is nec­
essary to be the first to alight,
though they may not be pressed for
time nt all. If a train Is n few min­
utes late In arriving Impatience Is ex­
pressed In remarks about the poor
management of the road. If these im­
patient people wait five minutes for
a street car, they declare it is n half
hour, and conclude that the road has
gone bankrupt nnd has quit running
cars. If an elevator is not available
the Instant they.wnnt it,"they posh the
button and fltw hnd fume. It Is not
unusual for a*.¡pedestrian to take a
chance on a crossing nnd then turn
nnd watch the train go by. It Is not
the value of time which makes such
people hurry so. Instead of being as
busy as they think they are they are

One of flie most famous marriage
brokers of history was Rev. Alexander
Keith, who. • ’ t the nr " R e of th*
Eighteenth century, did a flourishing
trade in dai ' stli: marrl-
In the
Mayfair district of London. He used
to celebrate as many as 6,000 a year
nnd cliMiM 0 guinea for each cere­
mony? &ile was publicly excommunl-
ca'eil nnd In return proceeded to ex­
communicate the bishop of London,
Judge Andrews, who tried him, and
the rector of St. George’s.
J nines, fourth duke of Hamilton,
was married to' the beautiful ;M1»»
