The Appeal

THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3-Its correspondents are able and energetic. VOL. 28. NO. 48. GHOSTS of the SEA HOST of the SEA GHOSTS of the SEA AS the reader ever heard the voice of the night-shrouded sea? Has he heard the wild wall of the raging hurricane and the weird whispers of the ambrosial calm? Has he seen ships creep out of the night when they blot out the stars with their darkling silhouettes, or when the sea and sky are one save for the gray patches of froth left trailing in the wake of breaking seas; has he seen great gray sails ooze out of the fore ships stealing across the "moon glade" athwart the glitter of silver cast upon the waters by the imperial votares, when the rays pierce the sails so that they become gauzy films? If he knows these things, who shall blame him for not scuffing at the superstitions of those who go THE GHOSTY SHIP OF BENARD FORME down to the sea in ships? Will he not rather give an ear to the tales of strange things seen and believed by sailor-folk? It is the writer's pleasure to waste time sailing the sea in a small craft, usually alone. Upon one of these voyages, having anchored upon the edge of the Nore Sands, he awoke in the middle of the night to find himself enshrouded by a thick fog—eerie enough, the uninitiated reader will doubtless think. Upon looking out at the black woolly wall of fog that surrounded him, he distinctly heard his own name hailed across the water. No other craft was near. This struck him as being so peculiar that he mentioned it to a friend who arrived at one of the little anchors, and said, "Their arm is shining to overear, said: 'That's the o' genlummen of the Nore.' Often of fogy nights ye may 'ear 'im scyling in a kind o' epless way, but sometimes' language is something horful. They say as 'e' was a first mate not dropped overboard and swam to the sands, where 'e' walked about until the tide rose an' drowned 'im.' Upon another occasion I was sailing along the coast of France, under the cliffs upon which stands Gris Nez lighthouse, which is about the most powerful light in the world. It was a very dark night, and the revolving rays of the lighthouse kept flashing upon the sails of my boat, lighting them like a powerful searchlight, until proceeding along the course I got out of their range. The strange effect had been forgotten, only to be remembered in time to prevent me from becoming a firm believer in ghosts. There at sea a ghostly ship was sailing; she was running across the sea in a real ghost, for every sail set like a glove—ghost she were never particular in this respect—indeed, she was one of those fine ships out of Glasgow which are the last words in sailing craft. From apparently nowhere a ship had come—a ship uncannily glowing with an unnatural light. Her sailes were surely cobwebs and her ropes were snider strings! Strange sights and sounds frequently come the way of seafarers. The groveling hissing sea, breaking through the night. Its appearance is ghastly gray; it comes from nowhere, it fades away soon after. What could not the imagination weave it into? What could not the imagination chase by the Evil One, the dying wife with arms in the trumpet of mother's voice. Moreover, such messages sea sounds give have frequently come from the dead; the howl of the raging gale, or the murmur of the gentle breeze through the halyarts, have borne the departing message in words that were exactly those the lost one whispered last. To the mind of one who knows the sea, it would seem strange that sailors are not more vigilant than they are, and there are certainly more valuable excuses for their belief in such stories as the bounty of a Patch of swirling vapor through the rigging of his ship upon a dark night. Imagination does the rest: he has seen the Flying Dutchman. Cornellus Vanderdecken, a Dutch navigator of long age, was making a passage from Batavia. For days and days he encountered heavy gales and baffling head winds while trying to round the Cape of Good Hope. Struggle against the winds as he would, he lost as much on one tack as he would, he lost as much on another tack for nine hopeless weeks, he ultimately found bummed in the game position as he was in at first, the ship having made no progress.

Defective Page THE FLYING DUTCHMAN Superstition has it that the appearance of the phantom ship leads to certain and swift misfortune. Old sailors will tell of the ship of the Flying Dutchman bowling in the very teeth of the wind, and of her overtaking their own ship which was beating to windward. Some of them say they have seen her sail clean through their ship, the swirling films of her salts and rigging leaving a cold clammy feeling like the touch of death. Cornwall in the old days was remarkable for its wreckers, and its rock-bound coast was the coast of many dead deeds. The Priest's Cove wreckers had his lifespan many vessels to doom upon the cruel shore by means of a false light hung round the neck of a hobbled horse. To this day the good Cornish folk will tell you of the phantom of the wrecker seen when the winds hail and the seas rage high. carried clinging to a log of wood upon the crests of the breaking seas, and how it is sent crashing upon the rocks, where in the seething foam it disappears from sight. The wide stretching sand-choked estuary of the Solway has many a ghost story and more than one phantom ship. The "Spectral Shallop" is the ghost of a ferryboat which was wrecked by a rival ferryman while carrying a bridal party across the bay. The gulling is royal by the skeleton of the cruel ferryman, such ships are unlucky as to encounter this ghastly pilot are usually doomed to be wrecked upon the sands. upon the deck and cursed the Deity, swearing that he would round the cape if it took him till the day of judgment.

The rocky coasts of New England are haunted by many ghost ships. The Palatine is the best-known specter. The coasters and fishermen of Long Island Sound will tell you that when a sight of her is gotten, disastrous and long-lasting storms will follow. The Palatine, a Dutch trader, misled by false lights to wreckers, ran ashore upon Block Island in the year 1752. The wreckers, when they had stripped the vessel, set her on fire in order to conceal their crime. The wreckers carried her from out to sea, agonizing shriek came from blaze, and the figure of a woman who had hidden herself in the hold in fear of the wreckers stood out black amid the roaring blaze. Then the deck fell in and ship and woman vanished. The whaling in Nantucket, as you will remember, was in its palmy days carried on almost entirely by Quakers. One Sunday evening a meeting was in progress; the simple service seemed as though it might pass, and the spirit moved none of the company. The elder Friend was just about to offer his hand to his neighbor in the closing of the meeting, when a stranger rose and decreed that the Lord's wrath was upon a whaling ship, and that he had seen her in a vision descended, he gave from the hollow of which she never rose. The meeting closed hurriedly, but the speaker could not be found, and the ship was never heard of. Some of the best ghost stories are those which the writer has heard from the simple folk of the salt marshes. It is hardly possible to describe these dreary districts, for when one has said they are flat, stretching for miles, and rather subject to mists, one has said pretty well all that is to be said—the rest must be felt. However, just as there is a call of the sea, so there is a call of the marshland. You shall go into the saltern and feel its moist breath upon your cheek and the breath of its salty winds and the ozone of its calms. You shall be lost in its vastness, and, threading its innumerable twisted narrow waterways, which lead to nowhere, ye shall tread its carpet of scentless flowers. You shall go to its very edge where the sea comes often, and where the flowers decaying leave their rust-colored remains. There you shall meet mud, and where the curlew shall mock as you flounder in its fith. The moon shall come up refracted by the mist in unreceivable shape, which shall be blood color. You shall be a gray shape, differing little from the common things that are there, for you shall be bourne by fog; nay, it shall sink into your very body, unaware not flesh and bones, but a particle of fogy yourself. You shall listen to its silences; you shall be told things by them, and, strong man that you are, you shall be afraid. Is it to be wondered at, then, that these simple Essex marsh-dwellers remember such tales as that of the young skipper, home from a long voyage, whose haste to embrace his wife, and the babe he had not yet seen, bld him to the nearer of the marshes? The tale has it that in crescent marrow gutway, near Pitsea, he sank in the mud, and he slied that he could not extricate himself; the man he struggled the deeper he sank, and with the horror of knowing that the tide was rising and would come up the creek, he shouted. As the tide rose higher the louder were his screams. The salterns near Pitsea are lonely; the cries were heard only by a half-witted peat-cutter, who often in his less same moments heard such screams and thought more of the matter. So the shrieks became gurgling, the time the tide had lifted the peat-cutter's pants had ceased. The older folk at the time she the story assume a mysterious air, and with large-eyed glacimands athwart their shoulders, will tell you that the skipper's shrieks are heard on starlit nights as the tide glides up that creek. No here are my ghost stories, and if I some- where tell all alone to the midnight deep, you will not. TRAITS OF CHILDREN How Parents of the Balkan States Raise Their Offspring. Montenegrin Youngsters Taught to Fight Turks to the Death—In Bulgaria Racial Hated Is Taught in Public Schools. Uzhitze, Servia.—One cannot help wondering during wartime what the children of the belligerent nations think about it all. How do the panies, the carnage, the firing of guns appear to their young minds? It is fairly easy to answer this question so far as Montenegro is concerned, for from the earliest age children take the keenest interest in their father's collection of weapons and the dozen or so knives, pistols and other knick-nack he wears in his wide belt. Montenegrin would be just as likely to go for a stroll down the village street without his entire "arsenal" as a Philadelphia dandy would be likely to walk down Chestnut street without his collar. In Spain I used to watch the children play, and here the game was invariably bull-fighting, but in Montenegro the only game for babies is war to the death with the Turk. The Montenegrins are a stern race, and the fathers, though devoted to their children, do not believe in pampering them. Indeed, discipline is strictly maintained in the home. But Prince Mirko did not forget the face of Prince Nicholas, the second son of King Nicholas, and the idol of the nation, when he told me of the death his two children. They caught typhoid fever in Nice and died within a few days of each other. "Have you any children?" he asked me. "None." I replied. "Well, you may thank heaven for that," said he, "for you will never go through the agony I suffered. I verily thought my heart was broken and that I never could be happy again. "As it is, I cannot bear to hear the Riviera mentioned, and wild horses will not drag me to Nice again." There are very little dolls with great dark eyes, and wearing long white shirts under charming brown suede leather zouave jackets edged with fur. These jackets are most quaint and original, and are decorated with arabesques and devices of gaily colored leather and pieces of looking glass sewn in imitation of sprays and flowers. The fur is left on the reverse side, so that the coats are very warm. I have often wondered on a broiling Montenegrin Mountaineer. summer day how they can stand the heat. Their manners are very pleasing and they remind one of nice little puppies or kitten. The Servians have a certain regard for their offspring without any wild devotion. In Bulgaria once hears of horrible massacres of babies. Only a day or two ago Bulgarians near Ruschuk attacked a harmless Turkish settlement and spared neither women nor children. But the Bulgarians set great store by their schools, and in these schools racial hatred is encouraged, and even the youngest learns that he will some day has to struggle for mastery with the Serb, the Greek and the Turk. Unlike the babies of other Slav nations, the Bulgarians are not, as a rule, beautiful. They are wooden-looking, flat faces, and are rather Mongolian in type; but they are as hard as nails. Carmen Sylva of Roumania might well be called the Children's Queen. She adores children, and the grief of her life was when her little daughter died. She has never really recovered from losing her only child, but it has had the effect of making her as good as a mother to all her young subjects. No one will ever know the extent of her benevolence and charity, and Romanian mothers bless her name. She interests herself especially in the blind, and her home for blind children is perhaps the most excellent charity of the country. Marrlea Convict.

FIRST SIGHT OF WHITE FACE tow a German Woman Confidence of People Who Have Seen Before Seen a European. Bangkok—In the mountains of northern Malacca and southern Siam dwells a tribe of dwarf Negritors who, until a few months ago, knew nothing of the white man and his ways. From their hunting grounds they could almost see the foreign ships steam through the Malacca straits. Certain conveniences obtainable only from the whites had reached them through intermediate tribes; for example, they had become well acquainted with the Swedish safety matches, yet no white man had ever come in contact with them. A German botanist, Albert Grubauer, not long ago set out to make acquaintance with these shy people. With a few native servants he stole Negritos Posed for Camera. quietly up into the mountains. For some time their patience was rewarded only with disappointment, but at last one morning they came upon a party of the little men. The Negritos dropped the bundles of rattan they were carrying and concealed themselves in the under-growth. The German and his men knew exactly what they were to do in such a case. They were not to go an inch in pursuit. No weapon was to be shown. One of the men who could speak a little of the native dialect, aired his accomplishment in the gentlest way. The white man was their good friend and had come to see them. And what wonderful mission he and brought for his Friends! The white man his servants extended their arms, which were loaded with bright cotton, strings of beads, many colored necklaces, tobacco, and other tempting articles whose merits were extolled by the spokesman with all the eloquence he could command. They knew the natives were behind the bushes looking at the tempting sight and listening to the exhortation. Then the visitors sat down, still holding out the beautiful presents. Finally an old man, the leader of the party, stuck his head out of the bush. He broke off a green twig and held it up. It was a sign of peace and the white man nodded to the officer who was broken. The Negrito approached the Europeans they shook hands some of the presents were distributed and the visitors became the guests of the little mountaineers. They were passed on from one group to another till Grubauer, after a considerable time, had completed his studies. FIRST RIDE ON TRAIN AT 113 Aged Arkansas Woman, Accompanied by 89 Year Old Son, Goes to Joplin, Mo., to See the Sights. Joplin, Mo.-Mrs. H. Keith, aged 113 years, and her H. Keith son, 89 years old, took their first ride on a passenger train recently. The train brought them from their home, several miles from a railroad, in southern Arkansas. Charles McManamy was the first pattern in uniform they saw. "I was your polo shirt," asked Mrs. Keith. "Well, we want you to show up how to get upown. This is the first time my son and I ever have been in Joplin. We came up to see the sights. "My, isn't this a big town?" exclaimed Mrs. Keith as she got her first glimpse of Joplin's busy thoroughfares. Mrs. Keith needed no assistance as she walked. She appeared much younger than she is, and walked with a quick step and with shoulders erect. She was taller than she said she has three sons older than the one who accompanied her here. The eldest is 95, she said. All live with their mother or near her home. Her husband was killed in the Civil war. CAST-OFF STOCKING A BANK Rag Cutter in Rising Paper Mill at Hoosatonic, Mass., Finds $50 in Silk Hosiery. Pittsfield, Mass.—Mrs. Mary Murphy, a rag-cutter in the Rising Paper mill, at Hoosatonic, was cutting up old hosiery for paper stock when, in a silk stocking, she felt a small roll, which proved to be $50 in $10 bills. Some wearer of the silk hose had made the stocking a purse and forgot all about the money when the hose was discarded. Mrs. Murphy is a widow and the find is to her a big blessing. RELICS OF SAVAGES Objects to Be Found in Pennsylvania University Exhibit. Arts Are of New Zealander—Canoes and Implements of War Were Once Used by Cannibal Ancestors of Civilized People. Philadelphia, Pa.—The University of Pennsylvania museum is making a special effort to secure as many collections and as much data from the islands of the South Pacific as is possible, and Director Gordon is sparing neither time nor money in securing additions to the present South Sea exhibit. The reason for this is that antiques and relics of the aborigines of that part of the world are extremely rare and can be obtained only at the greatest difficulty and expense. When the South Sea islands were first discovered by Capt. Cook, the natives and a developed artistic sense and made a cultural thing, but with the colonization of the islands by Europeans and the coming of western customs native arts at once became extinct. Fortunately, the early travelers brought to Europe numerous collections which have, for the most part, remained in private hands to the present day. Now, however, they are gradually finding their way to continental auction rooms, where they are publicly sold. The university museum is keeping a sharp lookout for such sales and has an agent in London, where most collections are sold. He has special instructions to watch for the sale of South Pacific islands, and buy them for the University of Angola vania, the cost not being considered. In the last few months he has secured some very valuable material and is now on the trail of more. At present there is on temporary exhibition in the museum a New Zealand collection which is one of the finest in existence, purchased by the museum's agent in London last June. It was a private collection, more than 100 years old. The agent heard of it in May and the opportunity was so unusual that Dr. Gordon himself went to London. After successfully bidding with representatives of some of the largest museums and private col- South Sea Island Granary. lectors in the world, Director Gordon secured it for the university. "We have now one of the finest and most complete South Pacific collections in the whole world," said Dr. Gordon recently. "This is especially true of the collection from New Zealand, the largest of these islands. Indeed, so remarkable is this collection that the New Zealand museum at Wellington has asked us for casts of the relics and antiques we have from that country. In the new wing of the museum, which will be completed next spring, the South Pacific hall—particularly that devoted to the Maoris, the aborigines of New Zealand—will be filled with many artifacts. The New Zealand exhibit includes many weapons, tools, clothing, utensils, musical instruments, feather robes and exceptionally beautiful specimens of weaving by the Maori women. The most valuable part consists of three preserved tattooed heads of Maori chieftains, which are of great antiquity. RETURNS HIS SON TO PRISON California Ranchman Takes Offspring Back to Jail When He Breaks His Parole. San Quentin, Cal.-D. W. Lamb, a Shasta county ranchman, brought his son, who had broken parole, to the state penitentiary here and turned him over to Warden Hoyle, ending a 300- mile journey on, near Lakeland, was sent to the penitentiary July 7, 1994, on a grand larceny charge. He was paroled April 17, 1907, and returned to his father's ranch, but later took to the road. Lamb was traced to Washington by the prison officials. He returned home recently out of funds, and his father immediately set out with him to the prison. "I would rather have my son behind the bars," said Lamb, "than to have him at large through having broken a promise." New Trick in Hanging Men. Atlanta, Ga. — The next man who is legally hanged in Georgia may have the experience of dying with the knot adjusted under his right jaw instead of against the jugular vein on the left. County officials are interested in the theory that the knot, adjusted under their supervision, will not produce immediate unconsciousness through the same process as the boxer's knockout blow on the point of the law.

TERMS STRICTLY IN ADVANCE In the last issue we had something to say about the wonderful things done in surgery now-a-days, and we now have another case to chronicle. A three-year-old girl lost her nose by an accident about a year ago. Three weeks ago surgeons took the left floating rib from her body and buried it in her forearm, where it was allowed to remain until the flesh grew about it. The forearm was then bandaged tightly to the child's face, where it will remain until the flesh unites with her forehead. The final step will be the cutting of the forearm loose from the built-up nose and the placing of skin to prevent scars. Every step in the operation has been successful and eventually the young lady will be smelling through a rib. They will be making folks from a scrap heap if they keep on. One often hears the complimentary expression used: "His heart is in the right place," and for one to have his heart in the right place is usually a good thing, but it happened to be a good thing for David Krumish, an eleven-year-old boy of New York, that his heart was on the right side, instead of in the right place. Last Monday he fell and was impaled on a picket fence. One of the iron spikes penetrated his left breast three inches directly over the place where his heart should be. As his heart was not in the right place, he is now on the road to recovery. Albert T. Patrick, of New York, who was three times sentenced to be executed and once to life imprisonment for the murder of millionaire William Marsh Rice, Sept. 23, 1900, and who has fought his own case for twelve years, was pardoned by Governor Dix Thanksgiving Day. He has verified the biblical statement: "The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, but to him that holdout out faithful to the end." And he has also knocked the stuffing out of the old adage: "He who pleads his own case has a fool for a client."

It is in the so-called "bachelor quarters," and is rather barbarically decorated with numerous stag heads, the trophies of innumerable hunts, artistically arranged. HANDCUFFED DEER ESCAPES A big buck deer startled 5,000 persons homeward bound from church in Vancouver, upset a man and horse and escaped after being handcuffed. The deer was first seen standing in a vacant lot. Boyd Lauder, a sixteen-year-old boy, went to look at it and was thrown to the ground. The buck then attacked and overthrew a horse tied in the lot and returned to trample the Lauder boy, when Policeman Samuel Grady caught it by the antler after twenty minutes' struggle, by wrist claws. From force of habit, snapped handcuffs about its legs. The deer sprang to its feet and the handcuffs slipped to the ground. The "prisoner" escaped swimming a creek. QUEER OLD MILL IN SARK In Sark, an island in the English channel, is the curious old mill here shown. The wheel revolves in a stone trough which is roughly known, and is built in sections. It has not been in use within the memory of man and the purpose for which it was used is uncertain. MOONSHINER'S FINE WORK The copper "worm" of a moonshiner's still was used in evidence in the court of Judge John Elmore, United States commissioner, at Montgomery, Ala. It was a splendid piece of work it helped and was made from very thick copper and it did not have a seam in it. Alpheus McGowen, of Coosa county, who was being tried for "moonshining," told Judge Elmore that he made the "worm." When he had beaten and worked the copper into a long gas pipe shape he filled it with white sand and crooked both ends. The tube was then carried to a tree stump and wound about it until the proper shape was obtained. The sand pressure was increased under pressure. The "worm" was captured in a raid by Deputy Revenue Collector E. N. Winters. DARED SHARKS SAVING WOMA Acting Assistant Surgeon, W. F. James, of the United States Public Health Service, stationed at Honolulu, and a former Roosevelt Rough Rider, has been commended in a letter by Secretary of the Treasury McVeigh "for the humanitarian and unselfish action" in rescuing a Japanese woman from drowning, September 23, a mile outside Honolulu harbor. The waters were infested with man-eating sharks. DRAFT AS A BURGLAR ALARM A draft from an open window awakened Mrs. Mary Lober of Brooklyn. She remembered that she had locked the window, so she got up and found that the bedroom had been ransacked by burglaries. She aroused her husband, who went to investigate. While he was out a man ran in and attempted to pass Mrs. Lober, to jump out of the open window. Mrs. Lober screamed and grabbed him. He beat her off, but her husband caught him. --- Over Graves of the Nogis Over Graves of the Nogis 大好伯爵乃木希典卿 大好伯爵乃木希典夫人静之 Over the graves of Count and Countess Nogi, who committed suicide after the death of the emperor of Japan, wooden tablets have been set up bearing the names of small traps are numerous letters, cards, and even telegrams to the emperors of Japan, laughed, and incense will be kept burning on the graves for many years to come. FACTS ABOUT BREATHING In each respiration an adult inhales one pint of air. A man respires 16 to 20 times a minute, 20,000 times a day; a child 35 or 35 times a minute. While standing the adult respiration is 26; while lying 13. The superficial surface of the lungs —i. e., of their alveolar spaces— is 200 square yards. The amount of air inspired in 24 hours is 10,000 letters (about 10,000 quarts). The amount of oxygen absorbed in 24 hours is 500 litres (744 grammes), and the amount of carbonic acid expired in the same time 400 litres (911.5 grammes). Two-thirds of the oxygen absorbed in 24 hours is absorbed during the night hours from 6 p. m. to 6 a. m. MUSTACHE COST HIM BRIDE Miss L. V. Brett, daughter of the late Mai, J. E.

At the dock she was met by the leutenant, who wore a flourishing mustache of recent growth. Miss Brett has returned to her mother in San Francisco and there has been a flourishing Leutenant Dawley left for Wisconsin. Love of absence to visit his mother. KNOWS HER HEN'S CACKLE Judge Batt, in the Terre Haute city court, refused to accept a woman's testimony against a man accused of stealing her hen. She said she recognized the hen's cackle as the man carried it away. She did not see the hen. Judge Batt said: "No one can identify the cackle of a particular hen and few persons can identify a chicken by its color when so many are alike." Mrs. Mollie Willis was the accuser and Allen Oglesh the accused. FORTUNE IN SKIRT LINING Neighbors examining the clothing of Mrs. Mary Krauss of Sandusky, O., for whose burial at the expense of the county arrangements were being made, found certificates of deposit calling for almost $1,000 sewed in the lining of an old skirt. Mrs. Krauss, eighty-one, dropped dead on the street. For years she had been doing washings and scrubbing floors. The examination was instigated by a friend to whom Mrs. Krauss had confided that she had money enough for a decent funeral, although how much and where it was hidden the refused to say. STINGS RESTORE HIS SIGHT While changing a swarm of bees from one hive to another, George Bailey, who lives near Placerville, Colo., and makes a living selling honey, but who had been almost blind for some time because of some alliment of his eyes, was stung on the face and eyelids by several of the bees. Bailey had intended to go to Sacramento to attend a specialist with a view to having bees covered in bees did the work that he intended the specialist should try to do. The effect of the stings has been to restore his sight. DEAF, BUT A GOOD WITNESS Although totally deaf, Mrs. Helen Sheldon Smille made a ready witness in the trial term of the city court. New York. Her ability to "read the text" on a screen was possible for her to return answers to questions of the attorneys in the case and of Justice Finelite. While she was being examined, Mrs. Smille, although near sighted, "read the questions from the lips. She rare-needed the services of her son, who at her feet to repeat the queries.

The man is certain of more pay who will make himself worth more. If you have a burden it is not God's will that you should bear it alone. The man who has eyes to see the work of God will always find it going on. It is as easy to expect the best to happen as the worst—and it pays better. When it is needed the Christian has as much right to pray for gold as for grace. The Lord sometimes takes a very little worm to thrash a mighty big mountain. Before you talk much to a hungry man about the stars, give him some ham and eggs. Anybody can make good resolutions, but it takes a man with a spine in him to keep them. The devil agrees with the man who thinks he can put on a hair shirt and turn himself into a saint. Unless the preacher can get some thing out of the Bible for himself he will not get much for his people. How it would astonish us if we could only know how much good others sometimes get out of our mis takes. - Indianapolis News. BITS OF WORLDLY WISDOM. Freezing politeness is not restricted to the ice man. Mutual deception is a popular game during courtship. It is easier to borrow trouble than it is to pay debts. A man may work for all he is worth, and not earn over $4 a week. A young M. D. never tries to care the infatuation of his sweetheart. Every man makes mistakes, but the weather man gets more of his in print. In order to be happy a woman must get a strangle hold on her disposition. Ever notice how proud the average man is of the things he is going to do? Judging by the quality of the product, it is no wonder we get so much free advice. Many a man gets rattled when a young widow acts as if he was trying to flirt with her. A woman's homeliness has reached the limit when she can't make up to look pretty in a photograph. The man who is weighed in the balance and found wanting nearly always complains that the scales are out of order. You never catch a man in the act of sneaking up quietly behind your back for the purpose of putting money in your pocket. WHAT ALL ARE SAYING There's nothing quite so busy as an idle rumor. Some people borrow trouble and some buy it outright. Better not take things too easy—unless they belong to you. When some men reform they are apt to overdo the thing. You may be able to catch on, but do you know when to let go? A porous plaster will stick to a man who won't stick to his word. A married man has to growl occasionally just to keep from forgetting how. We haven't much use for men who try to impress upon us that they don't have to work. Our good intentions must be hot stuff—considering the pavements made of them. Anyway, the theory that marriages are made in heaven can't be much consolation to spinsters. In some parts of Africa men buy their wives by the pound. In this country it is the husbands who are usually sold. SAYS AN ENGAGED GIRL "It's fierce." — "Everybody's changed." — "Even mother has changed." — "Sister has changed for the best." — "She is crazy about it, especially her bridesmaid dress." "And she is more crazy about my new home than am I." "Father tries to appear quite natural, but even he converses with reservations." "Brother is unbearable and openly scorns a man who could actually fall in love with me." "Of course, I want to be alone with him' at times, but it is irritating to have everybody making excuses to disappear that we may." COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS Knowles Building. Boys' Hall.
