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

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.

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

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.

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. Try it, reader, if you have any
tendency to bladder or kidney trouble.—
Exchange.
A Mean Hank.
"Madam, you've already overdrawn
your account."
"What's that?"
"You haven't any more money in the
bank."
"The Idea! A fine bank, I think, to
be out of money because of the little
I've drawn! Well, I'll go somewhere
else."
