The EB(liihff*Bian'« Lalrkkrr. Talking about the British urlt*tocra •y, a woman who has met It on its na tive kenth tells me that the feminine section of it never stirs out without a latchkey. We carry latchkeys over here, hut we don't <lo it in the British way. Tli# American woman ties her key in the corner of her handkerchief or hides it under the mat or puts it in to her purse along with cold cream rec ipes and car tickets and samples. The Englishwoman parades hers. The wo man who knows her tells me that she has seen latchkeys set with precious stones and fastened to long chains. She has seen them gilded and strung from belts; she has seen them with pins oil the back of them, worn as brooches. She tells me that the Eng llshwoinan would no sooner leave her latchkey at home than lier husband would his bath. The tiling is possibly new to the Englishwoman and, being new, Is paraded. With us over here it is an old story. Possessing the re ality, the symbol is of small moment to us. We are content to leave the latchkey under the mat. —Washington T'nst. A I'blloiinpliiT an h liHlii rinuu. Herbert Spencer once won a curious wager. He was staying for a fishing holiday in the house of Sir Francis Powell, the president of the Scottish academy, and while angling for trout he happened to drop his eyeglasses l#ito a deep pool of the river. In the even ing he related Ills misadventure to his host and the guests, and said that he was prepared to bet that he would re cover the pince-nez, from the bottom of the pool. Ills friends declared that this was an Impossible feat, but Her bert Spencer still offered to make the bet. His challenge was accepted by one of the visitors. Upon the following evening Hpencer returned to the house with the missing eyeglasses. He had fastened a strong magnet on the end of his fishing line and fished for the glasses until it came into contact with their steel rims. Floatlnir Tar(«ti of »hf 8e». Even the French and British war ships that patrol the Newfoundland coast during the fishery season do not escape the danger of Icebergs, crowded with men and carefully navigated though the vessels are. The Ice masses serve a novel purpose for the fleets all the summer through, being used as targets for big gun practice. When a specially formidable one drifts along past St. John's a cruiser slips her moor ings ami runs to sea after It, pelting It with projectiles until she fires away her allowance. It Is one of the sights of St. John's, the endless procession of of every size and shape that drift by day after day, charm ing the ey» and cooling the summer atmosphere. Sometimes they ground In the harbor mouth and prevent ships entering or leaving.—l'. T. McGrath In McClure's. Palestla*. When 011* thinks of the great events that have taken place In the Holy Land, the multitude of cities, villages and towns, the countless millions who have been born there and whose bones now lie in Its rock ribbed hills, the small dimensions of Palestine are almost startling. West of the Jordan, where most of the historic events took place, there are only 3,800 square miles, in cluding all the geographical divisions now called Palestine. Including the land both east and west of the Jordan, the total area Is 9,840 square miles. The length of Palestine from north to south is about ir>o miles. It varies in breadth from twenty-three to eighty miles. Wanted None of Hl* Art. At a dinner in London, Theodore Watts-Dunton said: "It isn't general ly known that Tfirner, the painter, and Dr. Augustus Prltchard once lived to gether for a year in Cheyne row. The painter and the physician had a fine garden, and they took a good deal of pride in their flowers. But the garden gale did not work well, and one day Turner, because it wouldn't open, pet tishly gave orders that it be nailed up. It was thought that this odd act would enrage Augustus Prltchard, but, on be ing told of it, all lie said was, 'Oh, well, i don't care what Turner does to tli® gate, so long as he doesn't paint it.'" ColdM. Every one knows when he contracts a cold on the chest. Not-so with cold in the kidneys and bowels. The kid neys, however, are th<> weak point in many men and women nowadays, and they may be well protected by wearing a roll of white flannel, which should be about a foot wide and go twice around the waist for winter and once for sum mer.
