The great financier was pacing hast ily up and clown his private oriiee, with a frown of perplexity mussing his brow. '?Excuse me, Sir, but the President of the Steel?" ventured a clerk, timidly putUng his bend in at the d-.'or. "Get out!" roared the great cnan cier. As the moments fled his step grew more and more disordered, and his frown deepened until his bald spot al most touched hi3 eyebrows. Again the trembling clerk pushed the door far enough open to falter, 'The committee of the Anthracite Operators' Asso?" "Lemme 'lone!" bawled the great financier. Ano:ber long half hour crawled into the cavern of the past, and horrid anx iety had crushed his features together In its remorseless grasp. Again the clerk, his face pallid, his knees shaking, and his voice quaver ing, whispered through the keyhole, "The President of the Atlantic and Pacific Itiiilroad insists upon seeing?" "G'way!" howled the great financier. By this time the news had reac'ied the street. Consternation reigned, Blocks went down and down, panic was in the air. The outer offices of the great linancier swarmed with excited magnates, their hearts in their throats. There were whispered conferences, grim and strenuous. At length the bold est brushed the terrorized clerks aside end strode sternly toward the private office. As he thrust the door wide open he was greeted 'wi.b a joyous Shout, a shout of victory. "That's it! that's it! I knew I could remember it!" exulted the great finan cier. "What is it? What is it?" clamored the crowd, fighting and shoving hi its eagerness to get within hearing. "Why, my wife told me to be sure to bring some seed catalogues home with me, and, by George, I couldn l remember what it was she wanted till this minute," explained the great financier, smiling triumphantly.?New York Times. Their Own Lookout. There was an Irishman who after reaching America was full of home Bick brag, in which nothing in Ameri ca even aproached things of a similar variety In Ireland. In speaking of the bees of the ould sod he grew especially roseate and said: "Why, the haze in that counthry is twice as big as in this, bedade, they're bigger than that?they're as big as the sheep ye have in this counthry!" "Bees as big as sheep!" said his in credulous listener. "Why, what kind of hives do they have to keep them. In?" "No bigger than the ones in this counthry,"" was the reply. "Then how do the bees get into the hives," was the reply. "Well," replied the Irishman, "that's their own lookout!" A Strong Draughtsman. Friend?I've often wished I could draw. Artist?You can, draw a check. That's more than I can do. One Woman's Way of Painting. The bright wife of a bright Phila delphia newspaper man has to do some of ihe housework herself, as her hus band's income does npt justify the luxury of employing help. The other day, finding out that the floor needed painting, -she procured the necessary materials, and early In. the afternoon set to work. When her husband returned in the early evening he found her in tears in the centre of the room. She had paint ed the floor all around herself, and there she was on a little dry island in the middle, afraid' of crossing the wet paint for fear of spoiling all her work. Her husband, instead of imitating Sir Walter Italeigh, procured a beard and released her from durance vile. Then he meanly told the s.'ory. Seemed Rather Too Familiar. lie drew her toward him. and after a few brief moments of kisses and rap tures of various kinds he asked: "What kind of an engagement ring would you prefer?" - She looked shyly into his face and declined to express a preference until she had been further pressed. Then she said: "Well. I've been accustomed to-" She checked herself jusL in titno to prevent a dreadful faux pas or some nther frightful French thing. However be is still pondering her answer, and it troubles him mightily.?Tit-Bits. Now They Don't Speak. Ethel?Yes. 1 won Charley at a euchre party. Ernie?Indeed!

The handles may be made high or low to suit the height of the plowman. All connections are made by patent bolt head, which will neither allow a bolt tp turn nor cause a casting to creak.
