A Fullman car porter la authority for tbe
'Statement that many people sleep with
their glasses on.
"They are people who appear to
be In their right minds, too," he
said. "When I first made the acquaintance
of t...ir tribe I thought they were crazy,
but 1 have found out better since. The
firm fellow I ever saw bunk up thus ac
coutred was- a politician who traveled over
my road frequently stirring up the voters
In the western part of the state. The funny
thing about him was that he didn't really
need his glasses any more than 1 did. He
seldom wore them In the day time, and
generally read the papers and made notes
for Ms speeches with his glasses dangling
from his buttonhole three feet away from
his eyes. But the minute he got ready for
sleep, they became Indespensable. It
bowled me dean over when I bumped Into
his curtains one night and found him
sleeping with the things on. I did not know
It wss his custom to wear them. I thought
he had become so tired out with speech
making and handshaking and baby-klss-Ing
that he had temporarily lost his mind
and gone to bed with them en by mistake.
I was afraid to leave him so, for it seemed
a dead certainty that If he should roll over
In the night he would smash the things
to atoms and perhaps put his eyes out.
80 I took the glanses off myself. I did
It as gently as a summer breese, but at
the first touch the old gentleman was wide
awake.
" 'What are you up to?' he asked.
' 'Taking oft your glasses, sir,' said I.
You went to bed with thom on.'
" 'Of course I did,' said be. 'I always
do. I couldn't sleep without them. Qlvs
em here.'
"Since then I have seen lots of other
folks who were slaves to the eye glass
habit. The politician wore a plain, cheap
pair of reading glasses that wouldn't have
been much loss If they had been broken
unless tho pieces had happened to Injure
his eyes, but I have seen other travelers
with specially prepared glasses. They are
provided with hooks and olasps and other
appliances to hold them In place, and the
eyeglass crank who goes to sleep with a
pair of them on can stand all the Jolting
the roughest road In the United States
can give him without their being dis
lodged. However, the people who take to
eyeglasses Instead of morphine tablets as
opiates have the knack of holding their
heads at a safe angle even In sleep, and I
have seen few accidents happen to the
glasses."
False Teeth Removed.
False teeth, although apparently con
taining fewer potentialities of danger, are,
according to the same authority, treated
with more respect by their ownera
Travelers who depend upon the dentist for
their grinders, display a good deal of cau
tion about creeping Into a berth with their
teeth In their mouths, end they tuck them
under the pillow and in valises, and even
hand them over to the porter for safe
keeping, rather than take chances on
swallowing them In the night.
Wigs are another thing about which
sleepers have peculiar notions. Very few
people like to sleep In a wig on account
of the difficulty In combing It properly the
next morning, but the porter tells the
gtory of one man who had the wig habit
developed to an extraordinary degree.
Us, too, was a frequent traveler over
my lino," said the porter. "I had had
many a nioe little chat with him and
thought him one of the most sensible fel
lows I over knew, lie was quite bald
from his forehead back past the crown
of his he A and we often Joked about It
being excess of bruins that had pushed
his hair out. But after I found out about
that wig business I wanted to take back
everything I had said about his brilliant
mind. I found It out by accident
"One evening I had occasion to look
Into the old gentleman's berth after he
was made up for the night To my utter
amassment I saw him togged out In
wig that spread over the pillow like a
monstrous mop of auburn curls.
" 'Excuse me,' said I. "Have I made
mistake? I thought this waa Mr. M 'a
berth.'
"The old fellow laughed. 'Sh-sh-eh.' he
aid. This Is me, all right Don't say any
thing about it It Is a fad of mine. All my
life long I have wished for a fine head of
eurly, auburn hair. Nature denied me that
boon. She gave me nothing but sparse
black locks to start' with. Now she has
seen fit to take even those away, and I
have concluded that since she played me
uch a scurvy trick I am Justified In getting
back at her by wearing any old kind of
hair I please. Hence this red wig. On ac
count of the Inevitable tinchirl table re
marks of my frien'l I couldn't blossom out
in a brand new suit of hair In the day
time, but I have made a practice of wearln r
It at night and It gives me the greatea
comfort Imaginable.'
"And that men was universally rated a

"People have lots of other queer habits

'It Isn't that that I want to hear.' he
said. 'I always fix the tumpet reidy fo

"Some folks have the hsMt of adjusting

they go to sleep. r to this day there

" 'I wonder If we can manage it on this

" 'I'm afraid not,' said her husband. The'
cars run east and west, and we can't very
well make up a special berth for you run

" 'Very well,' said the woman, 'If you
can't do a little thing like that to please

deathly sick to lie with my head in any

"The man swore and the girls cried. They

out of the window. 6 he was a prouo
woman, and wouldn't agree to that, so the
gave up their tickets and traveled else
where over a north and south line, when
she could lay her head In a healthful posi
tion.
"There are other cranks abroad, and the
Pullman oars gather them all In Impar
tially. There Is the man who cannot sleet
without an alarm clock ticking under hie
head, the fellow who Is kept awake al'
night by the whirring of the car wheels,
and the one who can be lulled to sleep onls
by a roar and rattle that 1b loud enough tc
split a pair of ordinary ears. Then ther-'
Is the fellow who can never be fooled ot
the time. He Is the greatest bore of all.
His faculty for measuring time Is so
acutely developed that he can wake any
hour of the night, and, without looking nl
his watch, sing out the time to the fraction
of a minute. He Is the same kind of fellow
who says when you make up his berth, '1
want to get up at 6 o'clock, sharp, tomor
row morning, but you needn't bother to
wake me. I can wake myself. All I will
have to do will be to go to sleep thtnklnf
about the hour, and I'll get up on the min
ute.' I hate that fellow, and It Is all I can
do to keep from telling him so.
"A funny thing about all these habits Is
that the people enslaved by them cannot
sleep If there is the least deviation from
custom, and if the man with his glasses or
the one with his watch or his shawl or his
wig should be deprived of his aid to
drowsiness, he would wander about all
night like a lost soul."-Philadelphia
Ledger.

A kind-hearted woman who was walking
he other day through one of the streets In
the vicinity of Falrmount park, Philadel

stone, crying bitterly.
Her heart was at once touched, and,
Tolng up to the little fellow, she asked him
the cause of his grief. Looking up through
his tears, he explained that his mother had
.sent him with some pennies to a near-by
grocery store and that he had lost the
money.
"Well," said the woman, as she ut her
hand on the boy's head, "shedding tears

" 'Cause." answered the boy, as he looked

The Intermittent dlsousslon about the pro
priety of the word "obey" In the bride's
part of the marriage service reminds City
Magistrate Crane of a story, relates the
New York Times. When a certain couple
were married the wife waa IS years old, and
big and buxom. The husband was two
years her senior, but slim to thinness, and
not up to the average In height. Ten
years passed and the couple got along ai
well as many couples do, but the wife was
hard to manage. With the flight of time
she became larger, while her theoretical
lord and maater added not an Inch to his
stature nor an ounce to his' weight. One
day he wanted her to do something and
she refused, at first quietly, then vehem
ently, and finally explosively. "I'll not da
It," she declared, "and I'd like to see you
make me."
"But, Marls," expostulated the husband.
"when you married me, didn't you promise
to obey me?"
"I did," she replied. Then, sislng up his
diminutive proportions, she added: "But I
expected you'd grow."
Pat" Bheedy has somewhat unique v'ews
on most topics, which quality leads his
friends to consult him as to his opinions
more often perhaps than the Intrinsic merit
of those same opinions Justifies, relate i
the New York World. An acquaintance
recently decided to put up a joke on Bheedy
by asking his views on a certain phrase
In a New York newspaper. The renten-e
In question had been badly "pled." The
first line read something like this:
"Psxqp ? I agparfy," and so on for
three lines.
"What do you think of that, Pat?"
queried the joker, marking the paragraph
and handing tt over to Bheedy amid the
grins of halt a dosen bystanders. Bheedy
read, or pretended to read, the sentence
carefully. Then, handing It back, he ob
served: "I'm a bit pussled to know whether It's
tne name of a Klsheney martyr or just a
nsw slang expression of Devery's."

is first thoroughly cleaned and all the light kernels are removed,
then it is washed in sterilized water and thoroughly cooked, after which it is
spun into thousands of little shreds, each shred containing thousands of little pores
which make it light and porous without the use of yeast, baking powders or chem
icals of any kind, and naturally short without the use of fats. The shreds are then
cut into biscuit and twice cooked, making them deliciously crisp, which compels
thorough mastication and insures perfect digestion.
The above facts make Shredded Whole Wheat Biscuit the most perfect food
known to man.

In the course of a few days after making
the statement In question the governor re
ceived the following note:

a week oft to destroy the pile of letters
asking for jobs. If everything else Is gone,
then, my dear governor, I should like the

"When I was a boy," remarked T. E.
Ryan of Waukesha to a Milwaukee Sentinel
reporter, "I went Into the circuit court
room In Madison, where George B. Smith
and I. 8. Sloan, two of the greatest lawyers
of their day, were trying a case as oppo
nents. Mr. Sloan had a habit of punctur

pression, 'Your honor, I have an Idea.' The
case had been dragging its weary length
through the hours of a warm summer day,
when Mr. Sloan, who was making what
appeared to be an Interminable argument,
said:
" 'ifbur honor, I have an Idea'
"Mr. Smith sprang to his feat, assumed
a dignified position, and with all the
solemnity Imaginable, said:
" 'May It ploase the eourt, I move that a
writ of habeas corpus be Issued by this

about to take place he remembered an
omission, and. fearing that shs might have
cause for future reproach, he whispered In
her ear:

At the congress of physicians In New
Orleans a story about Dr. Lorens went the
rounds.
Dr. Lorens, some years ago, was sum

had been wounded In a duel.
"Come Immediately, and bring plenty of
surgical appliances," said the summoner.
"for you will find your patient in a serious
situation."
Accordingly the physician and hla assist
ant loaded Into their carriage a. great quan
tity of bandages and Iodoform gause and
absorbent cotton, together with probes of
every slxe and shape, anaesthetics, and
splints. They were equipped to dress the
wounds of a small army, and great, there
fore, was their disgust, upon reaching the
Frenchman's house, to find that nothing
ailed hla but a mere sword scratch la the
forearm.

James M. Beck, the attorney who came

from making any but the most hurried

"Well, my good woman," the pastor re
