It Was Time to Quit.
"I'm through with the drink thing
forever , " remarked the Binootlifncod
man with the little nub of a cigar in
that naino tone that the hero uses
down at Uio Cleveland theater when
ho says : "Yes. I'm goln' away from

man was just that positive about It.
"None , " ho Bald , an ho brushed the
ashcH off his coat lapel , "tho rum prop
osition leads only to mortification , and
ruin. When a man gets so ho pushes
the bottcn and don't lnov. ItThcn It

the Hat-top soft hat. "Just pause and
slip back up the track about a car
length ! When you tell anything kindly
begin at the table of contents ; then go
to chapter one , and so on , will yuh ?
You talk like a busted down phone
graph. "
"As I was about to say , " went on
the man with the nub of a cigar , Jus"E
as If no one had stopped him , "when
wo got through settling the street rail
way question and a few other matters
of moment that had to bo disposed of
before the bunch broke away last
night , It was lacking Just a few miu-
utos of being 2:30 o'clock. When 1
got homo I says to myself : 'Why wako
up little wlfey when she needs the
sleep ? '
"Acting on that suggestion , I took
off my shoes Just before I started to
climb up the steps to our front porch ,
wondering to myself nil the time how
much of a discount I'd bo able to de
duct from the time I came homo when
I spoke of It at the breakfast table
next morning.
"I walked up to the door Just as

ute till my wlfo opened the door and
saw mo standing there , shoes In hand.
