The lln«-, VLook what I-done for you ami "hi Hi nail ,tue," IS good American, liui better American, I believe, would he, "I.ook what I done lor him and you and I." This, however, writes King l.ardner In the Bookman, brings up a subject to which one ought be uhlo to devote a whole volume, but »nt- ain't gt/U>' to. One Is only golu' to state that mysterious rules govern the cases of personal pronouns In our language and one hasn't had time to solve the mysteries even since prohibi tion. We say, "lie cvnie «p to me In the club." but we also say, "lie come up to Charley and 1 in the club," or even "He -oine up to 1 and Charley in the club." Charley's presence In the club seems, for "some reason or another," to alter my case.

Itwr steins, wine glasses tmd bar towels art' rapidly Joining the dust- mildewed relics of the days tlmt preceded January Id, IDL'O, when the prohibition law went Into effect. As the saloons heroine scarcer, bar room paraphernalia, from a relic col lector's viewpoint, become more valu able. One restaurant In the Hay Kldge section of ltrooklyn is taking no—chances .nn losing lis inefnentoes of the past days. The stained glass windows of the old saloon remain, but the bar has been removed to make way for the tables of the new restau rant. In the redecorated establish ment a shelf runs entirely around the room. All along the shelf are ex quisite old German beer steins, relics of former days and more valuable now HS mementoes. Passing through the handle of each stein Is a chain, which Is nailed to the wall. Unscrup tilous souvenir hounters, waiting until the waiter's back Is turned, find their designs foiled.

Is quite a different disease from the somewhat similarly named, but far more deadly, sleeping sickness, which Is a tropical disease. Sleepy sickness was first noticed In Kngland In litis. There Is little doubt that the causextf this mysterious com plaint Is a microbe. The microbes con centrate their attack on the brain, causing lethargy and facial paralysis, the patient lying for days In bed with motionless bead and expressionless face, like a mask, reminding one of the ertigy on a toiiih. Doctors are not yet definitely agreed as to whether the hic cough epidemic and the sleepy sickness are different diseases, or whether the one Is merely a symptom of the other. I'robnMy the latter ylew is the correct one, seeing that violent and prolonged hiccoughs were noticed In connection with the outbreak of sleepy sickness that ravaged Vienna In the early part of last year.
