Martin Drath had his death nicely prepared for the other night, with illuminating gas as the medium. He had turned it on and gone comfortably to bed to die. But neighbors smelled the gas and called in a policeman. When the officer forced his way into the room, Martin assumed it was a burglar and postponed dying long enough to get up to try to put him out. After he discovered his mistake he appologized, went back to bed, and asked not to be disturbed further. "I thought you were a burglar," he gasped. "What's a burglar, more or less, if you're going to die?" demanded the policeman. "I want to die." was the answer. "and I'm going to, but that's no reason for letting a burglar get away with anything." Then he begged to be allowed to complete his original plans, but he was taken to the hospital instead. Pretty nearly everybody forgot that there were ever any "original sexet" people in Floradora, except beautiful girls who made wonderful marriages or acclaimed fame in one way or another. But there were. There are equally six "original" sexet men. They are to have a reunion in New York and tell each other about their own careers since their sexteting days came to an end. The careers don't sound very flashy compared to what their partners accomplished. The men are in business, one producing musical comedies and vaudeville, with commercial business claiming the majority. One is a dignified banker in San Francisco. And now the New York legislature is once more being prodded toward action against "the awful dances." The bill intended to regulate "ballroom dancing of today" is being introduced by a worried state senator who has been hearing about them—but probably hasn't made much personal investment.

And Broadway without its electric ads would be dim, indeed. A man of the discreet age of 67 years won't be allowed—in New York City—to adopt a young woman of 29; but she can't if she feels so inclined, and if she marries first, adopt him as her son. Such is the ruling of Surrogate John P. Cohalan, who put his judicial seal of disapproval on the petition of Herbert N. Curtis to make 'Miss Mary Lois Fox' his foster daughter. When Mr. Curtis' plea had failed, Miss Fox attempted to explain the situation to the judge once more. She had known Mr. Curtis for a long time; he had been very good in helping her make her way professionally, she was about to be married; and she thought it would be nice to have him live with them as a father. "Wait until you are married" said the surrogate. "Then bring you husband around and I'll let you adopt this old man as your son if you like." THE MAN WHO WINS The man who wins is an average man. Not built on any peculiar plan. Not blessed with any peculiar luck. Just steady and earnest and full of pluck. When asked a question he doesn't guess, He knows—and answers "No" or "Yes." When set a task the rest can't do He buckles down till he puts it thru. For the man who wins is the man who works. Who neither labor nor trouble shirks. Who uses his hands, his head, his eyes; The man who wins is the man who tries! —Gateway Magazine. —Try a Plain Dealer Want Ad. —Try Plain Dealer Want Ads. —Try Plain Dealer Want Ads. —The Plain Dealer for Job Printing.

MAY EXTEND MERIT RULE IN APPOINTMENTS President Harding, according to news dispatches from Washington, is considering extending the merit rule to the appointment of all postmasters. It is to be hoped that he will do this. Mr. Wilson, while president, extended the rule to apply to postmasters who were appointed to fill vacancies caused by death, removal or resignation. So far, so good. There is strong conviction; however, among the people that the postal service could be bettered throughout the country by removing it from partisan politics. There is no denying the fact that appointments to postmasterships, when not made under the merit system, are in the nature of political appointments. Too often appointees are chosen more because of partisan zeal than because of any special fitness they may have for the service. This should not be. The postal service should be used sound business basis. Only men and women of merit, who are able, by proficiency, to prove their meritoriousness, should be in postal work. Postmasters should be thoroughly competent, devoted to the work and ambitious to give the public the very best service possible. Extension of the merit system to include all postoffices should be instrumental in bringing the best talent and the most earnest devotion into the service. 900 PAINTERS STRIKE SAN FRANCISCO, April 11.—Union painters in San Francisco, Oakland and San Mateo went on strike today against threatened 7 per cent wage cut.
