Z thoroughly understood the art of advertising, boasted P. T. Barnnm la hla recollections of his museum days la New York. One morning a stout; hearty looking man came Into my of 0c and begged some money. I asked, him why he did not work, lie replied that be could not find work and that be would be glad of any Job at $1 a day. I handed him a quarter, told him to go out and get hla breakfast and return and I would give him light labor at $100 a day. When he return, ed I gave him five common bricks. "Now," said I, "go and lay a brick on the sidewalk at the corner of Broad way and Ann street, another close by the museum, a third diagonally across the way at the corner of Broadway and Yesey street by the Astor Mouse, put down the fourth on the sidewalk: In front of St Taurs church, opposite f rmn ALL ANXIOUS TO BOLVH THS MI8TEBY. then, with the fifth brick in hand, go rapidly from one point to the other, exchange bricks at every point and say nothing to any one." "What is the idea?" Inquired the fcian. "No matter," I replied. "All you need to know is that it brings you IS cents an hour. Attend faithfully to the work, and at the end of every hour by St Paul's clock show this ticket at the museum door, enter, walk solemn ly through every hall in the building, pass out and resume your work." With the remark that it was all one to him so long aa he could earn hla liv ing, the man placed bis bricks and be gan his round. At the end of the first bour the side walks in the vicinity were packed with people, all anxious to solve the mys tery. The man then went into the mu seum, devoted fifteen minutes to a survey of the halls and returned to his round. That he repeated every houn until sundown, and whenever he went into the museum a dozen or more would buy tickets and follow him. He continued the round for several days, the curious people who followed him fnto the museum considerably more than paying his wages, until finally the policeman, to whom I had impart ed my object, complained that the ob struction of the sidewalk by the crowds hod become so serious that I must call in my "brick man." Lost Time. Lost yesterday, somewhere between sunrise and sunset, two golden hours, each with sixty diamond minutes. No reward is offered, for they are gone forever. Horace Mann. Mark Twain In Parliament. After a visit to England once Mark Twain said on his return to New York: "Among other honors heaped upon me by Englishmen was that of being pho tographed in parliament I am not a member of parliament But neither am I a member of congress. Has any fellow American suggested that I should be photographed in congress? No. I blush to say that they have not And yet here is an honor that might without risk be bestowed on any great man. And yet it was not bestowed upon Washington, Jefferson or Lincoln. When I saw that photograph, with the mother of parliaments in the back ground, and realized my advancing years I said to myself, 'Here are two noble monuments of antiquity two shining examples of the survival of the attest!"' Something Lacking. Mr. Wilkerson, the architect, had been invited down to the Clarks' to dis play the plans of Clark's new bouse to some guests. "Here is the front elevation," ex plained the architect as be laid the plans on the library table for the to spectlon of the visitors, "with the out side window and the circular gallery, This is the east elevation, showing the tower."

Is a man of dralt age wno nai taken out only hia first papers subject to draft? These questions have been asked of local exemption boards time and again aince the tending out of the question naires began. 1 he answer to the first qestion is "No." The answer to the second question is "Yes." An alien of draft age who has not declared hia intention to become a citi zen of the United States may waive exemption on the ground of his alien age, but if he does not want to waive his exemption, the local board has no choice but to put him in Class V. However, he must answer his question naire and return it within the seven day limit to his local exemption board, just as a citizen must do, or he will endanger his right to be placed in Class V. On the other hand, an alien of draft age who has taken'out his first papers declaring his intention to become a cit izen of the United States, is subject to draft. It makes no difference how long or how short a time ago he may have taken out his first papers.
