Mr. Sonderby Hurries. (Concluded from a preceding page) Mr. Sonderby looked under two dress- ers, one chiffonier, four small Oriental rugs, the bed, three chairs, a sewing machine, and a work table. He lay flat onone side and sighted along the floor for the collar button. He yanked the chiffonier and the two dressers and the bed into the middle of the room and threw the rugs into the hall. No collar batton! He explored the entire floor with the palm of his hand. No collar batton! He stood for a minute in the middle of the room, panting like a bull, and then he took a pin and pinned his collar to the collar band of his dress shirt at the back. Time was flying. He slipped into his shirt, and remem- bered he had not inserted the other col- lar button nor the cuff buttons. He would not take the infernal shirt off again, and he managed to get the collar button into the buttonhole, only ripping Thanksgiving Psalm ARHYTHMICAL AND GRATEFUL CHANT A teacher in a Terre Haute public school joins in the chorus: “Teaching is a business which re- quires a great deal of brain and nerve force. this force is renewed as the hausted close of the 3 Many resort to stimulating tonics for relief, “For 3 years I struggled against al- most complete exhaustion, getting what relief I could from doctors’ tonics.

He jumped into his dress trousers, put on his every-day tie, slipped his white tie into his trousers pocket, and reached for his vest. He yanked it so suddenly that his watch flew out and struck the marble mantel. No matter! He dumped his two pearl studs into his pocket, slipped the watch into his pocket, struggled into his coat and vest, took up his opera hat, and jumped down- stairs. He gave one glance at the din- ing-room clock. Seven-eight! No mat- ter! He could make the station by seven-fifteen if he ran all the way. He did not stop to put on his top coat, but fled. The balance of his dressing he could do on the train or anywhere. He reached the station with his dress shirt soft with perspiration. Not a soul stood waiting for the train! “Train gone?"’ panted Mr. Sonderby to the newsman. “What train?” “The seven-fifteen train,’’ Mr. Sonderby. “Ain't no seven-fifteen trai s “*Seven-thirty is the panted the newsman. sir!’ said Mr. Sonderby. “That time was changed to-day. Let me show you. Hand me that time table.’" Mr. Sonderby opened and looked at the green time table. A sick, peaked look came over his face. “Oh, dog it!’ he said, with intense disgust. ‘‘I was looking at the Sunday trains!" Our Difficult Language. MANIKIN’S a little man— That simple fact no one would stump; But a nakpin’s not a little nap And a pumpkin’s not a little pump. A starling is a little star— That's very plain to any chump; But a stripling’s not a little strip And a dumpling’s not a little dump.

A kidlet is a little kid— That's seen by e’en the dullest mut; But a hamlet’s not a little ham, And a cutlet’s not a little cut. A princess is a lady prince; But it is not held by any bloat That a mattress is a female mat, Or a buttress is a nannygoat. Oh, English, you are strangely made!
