All hia life he had been bothered that way. For no reason whatever sleep would sud denly desert him and when it aban doned Kellinger it abandoned the rest ot the laniily, meaning Mrs. Kellinger and the bulldog. When JIi's. KolIinKor would an nounce sadly to their acQuaintance.s that Tom had besun waking up at one o'clock and sta.ving awane till six or not going to sleep at all until half- past-tl\reo it was exactly as tragic as? though she was breaking the news that ho had fallen a victim to the suicide habit or h.Hil begun murdering peoide agai.'i afiiT a short vacation. Tho«o to whom siio ijpoko always had an nnea.sy feeling that they ought to send tiowers or somelhing. Kellinger absolutely refused to go to the doctor about it. Me said the physician would merely ask him if he had embezzled any trust funds or had anything else on his conscience, and would appear annoyed bocauso ho hadn't. "It's just nervea," Kellinger would say In martyred tones. “I wake up and then 1 begin thinking and 1 can't stop. 1 worry about what would hap pen if ten years from now a long, hard winter should si t in ami I didn't have any work. Then there is I'ncle Dave, who has just inve.sted all hla money in a gold mine, and wliat it’ he should lose it! And think of the tnifferings of the people over there in the Hal- kan rtgions during this cruel war!’’ ‘■if To.'n didn't liave t^uch an absnril- ly t( Iidc-r .'>:r;;. Kollinc-'r would si.h proudl>.

Whi'n they were out ia the cveti- ing Mrs. KelUriRer had the habit of watching hi r iiai-band nervuutily, and if hi.s eyelid twitched she would grab the person next to her and moan: ■'Tom is going lO have another sleep less night!" she would s^ay. "He is getting the blinks! Poor man! 1 don't know what is going to become of him! Isn't it awful! Dearie!’’ to the afflicted one, “eit over here whero you won't get the cigar smoko—it makes you nervous. I know!” All of this happfned before the ar rival of Mrs. Shandle, who had know n Kellinger at the (iislllusionizing age of ten, and had never outgrown the habit. The first time she was present at one of these sad exhibitions she transfixed tho Kellingers with a dis gusted glance and spoke her mind. ‘‘Stuff and nonsense, Totnmy Kel linger!’’ said she. "I never hoard of Buch tomfoolery! I never saw a per son put on the airs you do! Are you any better than any one else that you can't sleep as the rest of us do? You say that your life is without reproach, and if it is there's no excuse for your not sleeping. The idea! Smoke that cigar and drink that cup of coffee and go home and go to bed and go to sleep! you’re a perfect goose! I think the trouble is that your head l3 only big enough for one idea at a time, and you've grown attached to this sleepless idea and hate to tell it to move on. I'm ashamed of you! And your wife is an easy mark!” “I think sho is horribly rude!" Mrs. Kellinger kept saying all the way home. "She doesn’t understand your sensitive nature at all!” "Hull?” queried Kellinger—and yawned. Whereupon he went to sleep when hla head touched tho pillow and Mrs. Kellinger had to set the bulldog loose on him in the momins to g^t him up at all. That ended Kellinger’s insomnia. Exchanged. The stealthy burglar took th« dia mond set clock off the mantel and re placed it with a sixty-cent timepiece, BO that the sleeping owner would not miss the familiar tick. “How times have changed,” mur mured the burglar as he crept out into the cold. “Positively Sets Your Teeth on Edge.” your teeth on edge! And it must grata on Jack—bo's so st'usitive to color ef fects! It's odd you never noticed it beforo I pointed it out—” "I can't very well smash them,” said the bride, rather Indignantly. "They were gifts. And they really are very lovely. When we get up these hang-, ings—” "I..et's grt all those old rags out of the way—my goodness, these are never your hangings'."' cried tho caller in a pained voicc. "W'fll, every one has her own ideas. They nmst havo come from Kgypt and all that, but— and, my dear, what are you ever going to do with all thoso embroidtred luncheon sets that I noticed among your wedding presents? "Now I must run along, for I’m sure you want to get dressed and respecta ble looking before Jack comes home. Tell him I've so enjoyed my littlo chat with you! I’m sure you can be con tented in this apartment if you make up your mind to be. There's every thing in that! I'll run in again soon, because I'm sure I ean help you make i things look lota better! Good-by, ' dear! ” •‘Good-by,’’ bre;»ihcd the bride. Then she hastily ran into the back room and, picking up the plaster head with a pro file like her caller’s, with great precl- I aion and dispatch she crammed it into the waste basket and smashed it with i the pump hastily removed from her left foot.—Chicago Daily News. )tUce He did not look it. Even Jotham Hubbard himself, ns he viewed his un lovely retlection in the cracked mir ror ot his room up under the farm house eaves, even he could but ac knowledge that ho was indeed as Aunt Sarah said, "As homely as a hedge fonce." There was no gainsaying the fact, and as poor Jotham turned from tlie sight of Ilia, large features, and red hair, ho sighed. Ho was used to being plain, but since encountering tho mocking black eyes of Mattie Huxton, life had taken on a somber tint never known before. Her laughing scorn was no coy, maidi'nly coquetry. He realized that. lie would do something rash; ho felt just like it. He would go to Hos- ton! Tliis wild scheme he put into ex ecution, and soon tho little New Eng land village of his birth knew him no more. Once really arrived at tho metropo lis things began to happen. Ou reach ing tho city by boat, the harbor scenes so interi'sted him that he walked about tiie wharves for a time, forget ting everything save tho fact that ho was seeing tho world. As he stood wat< ling a steamer about to sail for B soiithi rn port, a taxi drew near, and two men alighted. The younger man was wliito and thin as if from recent lllne.ss. As tiiey stepped from the cab a mes senger boy met tliem. "Mr. \yest- Bvor?ho inquired. 'i'ho (dder mati nodded, whereupon ,a letter w.is handed to him.

Hho didn't see who 'twas, 'tain't likely." ".Not much,'' laughed Westover, "you don't catch me strutting around in borrowed heroism.” A compromise was at length ar ranged, and Westover agreed to ac- comiiany and stand by his friend dur ing tho dreadful ordeal. Miss Carter's home was a lino, old southern mansion, and tho drawing room, into which tho two young men were shown, seemed the acme of lu.x- ury to at least ono of them. A mo ment later Dorothy Carter apjieared, a not unattractive giH, wearing a white gown. "Two?” sho questioned doubtfully. "Which ono am I to thank?” Westover pushed the blushing Joth- ani forward and that young man man aged to take her proffered hand with the words, "I'm Jotham Hubbard, but you needn’t thank me. That’s all right.” "Indeed, but I shall. liring the lights.” continued the girl, turning to a maid. "I want to'see clearly my bravo and handsome rescuer.'' Jotham gasped. “Oh,” he stara- ra .-ed. "don't think that. I ain’t han’- Bom. I—I expect I'm ’bout as home ly as they make ’em.” "Then we'll speak of your bravery,” tho girl returned. ‘That is not to be denied.” Miss Carter was deeply interested in hearing about life in the north, and it took a second, even a third call for Jotham to toll all she wished to hear. It seemed, indeed, that Jotham'a bravery had quite blinded the girl to his physical defects, or, it may be that the proverbial blindness of love alone was enough. But the young man came, was seen, and conquered. Extract from a letter written by Ralph Westover to his father: "Well, tho great event has taken place, and this morning I acted as best man at the wedding of Dorothy Carter and my esteemed friend.
