THOUGHT OUT A HEW "GRAFT' . I , Torrid Weather Gave New York Beg 0?r ?n Idea Whloh He Seemingly Turned to Advantage. A man believed to be a professional beggar took advantage of the torrid weather to work on the sympathloa of persons in (he subway, the New York Times stutes. The beggar, wearing a heavy storm ulster, got on a north* i bound Hroudway express at nix o'clock In the evening, at the Brooklyn bridge station, lie found a seat in a corner of the car, and the perspiring passen gers rcgurded him with snrprlee and pity. They noticed that itu. beggar had a long beard 'and that the storm collar of tho great coat was turnetL up and buttoned tightly about his nick, lie seemed to be Buffering n|U<;h from the heat, for his lean face was moist with perspiration. A sympathetic guard asked the beg gar why ho was clothed for winter when most of tho men in the car had cast aside their coaffc. The beggar ro plled softly that he did not dare to open hie ulster, as he ^ore no clothing underneath it. This Information the guard communicated to several men In the car. One of them started a collec tion to get a suit of clothes for the I>oor man. lie passed a hat from one passenger to unother, and several dol lars In silver were obtained for the beggar. Ho quit the car at tho Grand Central station, thanking his benefao tdrs tearfully. After counting up the collection he crossed to tho south bound platform of the station, where ho got on a downtown express. Ho succeeded in arousing the sympathies of the passengers on the train, and an other collection wa{| taken up and turned over to him. When last seen he was hurrying to a north-bound ex press at tho bridge station. IN THIS DAY OF UNCERTAINTY Sophisticated Girl Refuted to Accept Dueling Scars on Pace aa Proof of German Blue Blood. "Oh, he's a sure, thing German count," said the flrafc^ summer girl. "Look at the dueling.'E^ar^n hiB face. They mean that at Heiddiberg or some such university he was one of them swell corps students ths,t hack each other up in duels just for the fun of it" But the summer girl's companion, who had traveled, said: i "Darling, In these ;days of men's j beauty parlors, with sunburn at a dol lar a quart, you can be sure of noth- 1 ing. I was once like you.v I thought that dueling scars on a Dutchman's face meant he was a graf, sure. But I've traveled and I've found out that many and many a young German butcher or baker or clerk, sports a face full of scars without ever so much aB seeing a university. "For Germany leads tho world in men's beauty parlors as in lots of oth er things, and Germans take treat ments to givo themselves duelling scars the same as we take treatments to give ourselves dimples. It's a pain less treatment, too. "Yes, all over Germany this goes on, and so, at> I said, you can't be sure of nothing. That count of yours, for all you know, may be a young milk man just out of jail for stealing a cow." The Art of Sleep. I picked up in a tetter in tho Sun not long ago the true remedy for sleep lessness. One of your correspondents suggested that continuity of thought be broken by a string of . jargon such as saying in the mind "ocean, South Africa,' table, figures, mule, King George, cow, ink, South Amerioa, tree, Newport, wireless, picture, cold, mush and milk, subway, candy." People form the habit of chewing things over in the mind after going to bed. Instead of going to sleep and waking refreshed to tackle the prob lems of the day with a vigorous mind, they prefer to think thom over at night. The habit may be all right, but it should be controlled like all habits. Psychologically speaking, a person should learn to think in words. He should learn to read without words. He should learn to sleep by a jumble of words. Motion pictures are splen did, but they are teaching us to feel without words. Thus wo dream. Mo tion pictures are making dreamers. ? Letter to New York Sun. Gigantic Plere. ' In New York work has been com menced on the 1,000-foot pier made necessary by the size of the vessels which have already reached the point to demand such accommodations. The plans for the new Tilbury docks pro vide bertha for vessels 1,260 feet long. It has been predicted that the 1*250 foot boat will bo with us in 1930, based on recent strides in shipbuild ing, but there are many authorities who look for it at an earlier date. In order to take. care of the increased size of the modern vessel the Sues canal will be deepened to 39 feet by 191B. Decorate* Abandoned Home. Returning after a day's work as baggage master on a New Haven train, a citizen of Winsted, Conn., found a bare home, with only his bed In it. His wife, children, and house hold goods were gone. After tearing that his wife had rent ed apartments elsewhere he proceeded to oelebrate. He bought firearms and flags, and red. white, and blue bunt ing. His neighbors were aroused dur ing the nibht by reports of pistols, and when day broke they saw the house decorated in the national col ors. He explained he was celebrating his wife's retreat. LIKE A HAUNTED HOUSE ?y FANNY MAJORS. "The melancholy day# have come," said Medford u> himself a* bo unlocked hia front door upon hit* return from oa labliahliiK hia wlfo at a summer re sort, "and ih? fellow who said that tho fall days aro tho aaddust of tho year probably never had a wifu who went away every summer aud loft hliu to his owu destruction." lie Htared about him wheu. he enter* ml the familiar living roout aud It seemed to him that a coinpauy of ghoata were drawn up to receive him. Ilia wife's cosy, sleepy hollow chair bad changed Its pretty tapeatry dreaa for a winding aheet. The Morrla chair wore a bilious looking blouse, and al though his own leather rocker had been permitted to remain unmolested it looked strangely out Of place In thla gboatly coinpauy. "No wonder men take to drink and gay company when their wlvoa are away for the luminer," he aaid to hlra aelf, aa be dropped luto hia accuatom ed place. "Doea uuy sane woman think that a man is going to be satisfied with shrouded ohairn and blank windows for aociety while hia wife ia Bitting on u hotel porch talking to the awella? "1 think that at leaat I^ydht might have left the curtalna up, for ahe knows how I hate bare wiudowB. Aa for thla beastly carbolic Bmell, it makes a follow feel aa if ho were Ih hia grave or In a hospital, which la about the same thing." He wandered about from room to room, aaaurlng hlmeelf that he felt like the heroine In the. atory of the "Three Bears," who was ao difficult to pleaae In the matter of furniture and porridge. When he 'came to the dlnr ing room he atood aghaat at the hayoo revealed there and he was shocked at the absence of the precious ailver cof fee pot. "No matter If I am to take my meals out, she might have left that coffee pot Juat for company," he taourned. "It Is all vory well for her, there In a perfect forest of coffee pots, for sho will probably never give a thought to her own, but next to her there is noth ing that I miss so much. If I knew , No Wonder Men Take to Drink. where she had hidden it I would get It out and take my chance on its being carried off by a burglar. Burglars ! I can fancy that a man could get so lonesome that he would be glad to meet a burglar. I am sure ' if one should turn up now I would invite him to sleep ln~the spare room." Then he slowly ascended the stairs and entered the dainty gray and pink bedroom where twin four poster beds stood in solitary splendor. "If she was so keen about putting things away, why didn't she hide this abandoned twin?" he grumbled as he turned from it. Again, like Golden Locks, he ventured to try anothor bed, the spare bed, which graced a room which had no personal associations for him and therefore seemed less dreary. But the mothballs had taken posses sion of that room and in utter discour agement he returned to the twins, which at least were innocent of offen sive odors. . , Upon again entering his own room his eye fell upon his wife's little ma hogany sewing table, with its armless chair drawn up beside it, and out of idle curiosity he opened one of the drawers. "If I were a real hero of romance," he mused, "I ought to find a letter tucked away in here, a letter that would reveal my wife's hopeless pas sion for another man." But Instead of a letter there were the gold thimble he had given her, a neat little row of scissors and spools of thread of all sizes and colors. These seemed to agitate him aa much as a guilt-revealing letter would have done, and he looked away from the drawer to tho picture of a happy face smiling at him from the wall. He returned the smile. When later he tumbled Into bed his final reflection was: "Well, I don't care how lonely I am, if only she has a good time." ? Chicago Daily News. 8ounds Fishy.
