Some tune ago there lived a gea Ueman of indolcn t habits who spent his time visiting ai.ioug his friends. After wearing o.it his welcome in his own neighborhood he thought he would rkit an old Quaker friend some IwanLy mi :o& distant On his arriva1 he was cordially received by the Quaker, who, thinking the visitor had tutaii much pains to come so far to see him, treated him with a great deal of attention and politeness for several days. As the visitor showed no signs of leaving, the Quaker became uneasy, but bore it with patience until ihe eighth day, when he said to him: ''My friend, i am afraid thee will

never come again. "Oh, Yfsp 1 shall' said the visitor. t(l have or. Joyed ray visit very much anil shall certainly come again' "Bui" said the Quaker, "if thee frill never leave how can thee com again ?" Philadelphia Ledger.

On ono occasion there was a great handshaking ordeal at the window of the old gentleman's railway carriage, and he was rapidly getting the worst of it. A stalwart young policeman vho accompanied Mr. Gladstone proved equal to the occasion. Crouching behind the great man and thrusting his hand under Mr. Gladstone's Inverness cape, the muscular "peeler" gave each comer in turn a grip that had no lack of cordiality. "The auld man's uncommon veegorous at his time o; life," observed one unsuspecting Scot as he etroked his fingers. "He is that," concurred another of the policeman's victims, 'Mbut did te notice his dirty nail&ffU

By SALLIE MENDBEM. Copyright, 1909, by American Press Association. The way I got out of the burglar line was this: I had mighty good uerre and wasn't afraid of any one. I seemed to know what kind of a crib to crack and how to do it without waking anybody up and getting away between midnight and dawn, when the cops are most drowsy. While I was doing a job I thought of nothing except my work and was both cool and watchful. I wasn't one of those blokes who scare people to death or who are ready if necessary to add murder to robbery. The truth Is I never liked the prospect of facing either charge. As I was saying, while engaged at my work, however dangerous, I was steady as a monument, but when danger had. passed and I had nothing to do but think I went downhill very fast. What bothered me most was that I couldn't sleep nights that is, when comfortably stowed away in bed. . I once took a nap in a gentleman's parlor and was only wakened by the sun comiug up and shining in my eyes. I just got out in time to save myself. But when lying on a soft mattress, with warm covers and no chance of being disturbed, sleep wouldn't como to me. I lay awake thinking of the time when I would hear prison doors clang? bejiind me. The thought was dreadful. I'm afraid I was too fine grained fo the business. Month after month my hours of sleep grew less till I feared insanity. One night I woke up at midnight after having slept two hours and knvbw there would be no more slumber for me till the next time I went to "bed. I was so desperate that I got up with the intention of going Into'some -house where I had no right and there snatch another couple of hours' sleep. I had a crib in view, a small house with not much In It. But I was looking for eleep, not plunder. I went there, took

out a pane of glass, entered and went upstair to find a place to settlo down. I stood In a dark hall looking into a j

room where a night lamp was burning. In tho room a woman was In bed with a child, both asleep. Tho child Ayas sleeping. on tho front of tho bed, very

near tho edge. Ho was a boy and, I

think, about flvo years old. On a narrow lower bod, close bosldo tho other, Mlopt another child, a tflrl of About threo. öho "Wan looplng In tho center of her hod on hpr wide andhad her chubby list up a'galnHt hor fat ohoMr. H: vnn hnr. Aiimmnt wimlhnr.

Tho only effect the atorm had on any ef them was to increase t'ho restlessness of tho boy. He rolled and tumbled In his sleop llko a ship tossed by tho waves, sometimes lying for a few minutes close against his mother's bed, then rolling ovor to tho outer edge of his own. I was sure, he'd in tlmo tumble out of this bod, as ho had out of the other, and I was bound to see him do It Sure enough, before I expected It he gave a lurch and landed plumb on top of his sister. Neither of them awoke. I reckon women know in their sleep what's going on with their children, for, now that tho storm was over and everything was still as the tomb, the mother sat up in bed, glanced at her

children, got up and put them In their proper places. Then she went back to bed herself and was asleep In a moment "Well," I said to myself, "If that's what a clear conscience will furnish I'm going to have a clear conscience." I went back to my room resolved never to enter any man's house again but my own, at least not for plunder. I went to bed and slept like a top for twenty-four hours. I kept my resolution, found honorable employment and prospered. But 1 didn't forget the family that converted me. The mother was a widow, and, having a hard tim to get on, I mado her kcqualnUnce and married her. But none of mj family know that I had been a burglar or how I came im
