Pierpont Morgan step .ppd out of his nansom the other morning and started into his bank ing house, a voice behind hiim :all8a: "Oh, Mr. Morgan!" The man who controls Wall street paused on the first step and looked back. On the instant there pounded the click of a camera's shutter and the voice said, grateful ly: "Thank you, Mr. Morgan." Mr. Morgan scowled; then the shadow of a smile formed around ,his lips. "What are you doing?" he demanded. "I hope I've a good snapshot of you," the' photographer replied. "And what are you goin to do with it?" "Sell it to tlie paper that wil give me $25 for it." Mr. Morgan scowled again, and again there came a shadow of a smile. "Oh, well," he said, "I don't care. You were sharp enough to get iihead of me. Sell it if you can." And the financier was engulfed by No. 23 Wall street. Two hours later the photographer disposed of the negative to one of the big morning dailies for just $25. This photographer does nothin except make snapshots of celebrities. The streets of New York are his studio, and from them he manages to scrape together an income of about $3,000 a year. New York correspondence Atlanta Constitution.

Apparently by newspaper invita tion several nurses and physicians in Chicago hospitals have been dis cussing the curative values of liter ature. The agreement is general that judiciously selected books may exert marked good influences on patents who are in condition to read, or to listen to reading. Stories lo not take the place of medicines. But according as they divert the n.iiul of the ick and injured, re lieving them from melancholy, worry or dullness they give nature and the dw.-ior.- a very appreciable assistance.
