Philip S Dean of 2tfl West One Hun
dred and Ninth street, New Tort, wus
summoned to the telephone. He has
long been u friend und us such Mrs.
Wynian said she hud called hlni up to
say she intended to commit suicide lu
her daughter's studio.
"1 Just wanted to tell you I Intend
to end everything lu Cnro's studio,"
she said. "I'ui golug to kill myself.
You'll And the key to the studio In the
letter box."
Mr. Dean says he had known of Mrs.
Wymau making such threats :>eforu
and after telling her not to d<> auy
thlng so foolish bung up tbe instru
ment. Believing she would uot carry
out her threat, be went to bed and
forgot about tbe mutter until tbe next
day. Then, thinking of the messaga
of the night before, he decided It might
be well to call op Miss Caro at her
studio. He found It looked.
Several attempts to get a response
from within falling, Mr. Dean went to
the East Fifty-first street police station
and asked that the case be Investigat
ed. While there he recalled her prom
ise to leave tbe key in the letter box
and, returning with a policeman, found
the had beeu true to her word. The
woman lay dead on a lounge with a
gas tube daugllng near her head.
Eighteen Skeletons In Hi* Closets.
In clearing up the laboratory of the
late Dr. John Stolze of Reading, Pa.,
no less than eighteen skeletons wero
found In closets In various parts of the
building, sending the women finders
Into hysterics. Dr. Stolze gathered the
skeletons during his long career as a
physician and patent medicine manu
facturer. They were carted to pott*r'?
field and Interred in one grave.

Simplicity.
I do bjlleve In simplicity. It Is as
tonishing as well as sad how many
trivial affairs even the wisest tnan
thinks he muut attend to every day,
how singular an affair he thliikc he
must omit. When the mathematician
would solve a difficult problem he tlrst
frees the equation of all Incumbrances
and reduces it to its simplest terms.
So simplify the problem of life, dlstln

Th? Grateful Parent.
A. New York man enjoys repeating i
story be claims to have had from on<
' of the life guards at Atlantic City.
It appears that not long ago a Phlla
delphla iuau and his nine-year-old sor
were at the end of one of the plen
| gazing over the rail at the ocean whei
suddenly the lad, leaning over too far
I tumbled Into the water. The life
guards were just then at quite a dht
, tance from the scene of tho accident
so another man on the i ler, without
waiting to. divest himself of either coat
or shoes, plunged luto the s ea and aftet
buffeting with the wavcj for somt
time succeeded In getting the hall
drowned boy to the bcaeb, whither li
the meantime the father had hastenec
? from the pier.
The parent took the affair very cool
ly. As the self appointed rescuer set
the dripping boy at his father's feet
the latter Inquired:
"Thank you. Dut what have you
done with his hat?"? Harper's Weekly
Stung.
A little vrirl was being put to bed one
summer night, and after she had said
her prayers her mother kissed her
good night and said:
"Now go to sleep, dear. Don't be
afraid, for God's angels are watching
over yon."
In a short time, while the mother
and father were at tea, a small voice
from upstairs was heard.
"Mamma!"
"Yes. little one! What is it?"
"God's, angels are buzzing around,
end one's bitten me!"? Harper's Week
