Peludes Money's Guardians Into Fake Errand and Takes $2000, Two thousand dollars, intended to pay the employes of the Puritan mine, was stolen ¥riday from the engine house, where it had been placeo tem- porarily, and the thief made his escape. General Manager George Beott, of the Colonial Company, with head- quarters in Philadelphia, drove from Philipsburg to Puritan with the money on the morning mentioned aud while he was making an inspec- tion of the mines he left the money in charge of the engineer and fireman, who locked it in a tool box. Hearcely had Mr. Beott left the eu- gine room, when a supposed miner rushed in and said that Mr Beott wanted to see the engineer aud fire- man in the mine. When they return- ed from what proved to be a fool's errand the tool box was open and the money gone, It is supposed that the robber lay in wait for Mr. Beott, but the opportun- ity for holding bim up did not present itself, and he secured the money by & clever ruse. ——— ee —— Kelth's Theatre, A bill of strength, qpality and charm is on at Keith's Chestnut Bireet Theatre, Philadelphia, this week.

The interest of the junior member, however, was at white heat, and he kept sending for the young lecturer, In- sisting that he come down to the office and read his lecture. The young man refused with as much tact as possible, but this only increased the anxlety of the junior, At last the young man told of the promise made the senlor partner.

The Way This Garment Interferes With Hoth Health and Comfort. Some of the Absurdities of the Pres- ent Masculine Style of Attire. The necessity by which men feel co- erced of proving to the world that they wear white shirts lles at the basis of all the difficulties of the dress problem, Until the garment becomes extinct it 18 hopeless to attempt the reform of men's dress on the lines of health and comfort. It will of course ultimately disap- pear, for it is but the mark of a stage in the evolution of dress, just as the vermiform appendix is a useless evolu- tionary remnant in the body. But the question is whether we ought to await the slow course of evolution or to use our common sense and abandon the ancient garment at once. Why do we wear white shirts? Ages ago it was only the wealthy who could afford to clothe themselves In linen. The possession of linen underwear was then a mark of social position, and fiere was an obvious advantagé in making publie display of it. We may put down three-fourths of the discomfort of the hot summer to the account of the starched shirt. It prevents the very process devised by nature to keep the body cool—the evap- oration of sweat. In so far as it hip- ders this natural process in summer, the white shirt favors disease, But In winter it is a fruitful cause of {liness. In winter the mere wearing of a white shirt would no doubt’ leave a man no better and no worse If he were content to wear it for his own satisfac- tion tut the curious law of evolution comes in and compels him to wear it in such & way as to do himself physical injury. Wherever is at work It leaves literally, footprints. Probably it 1s millions of years since the vermiform appendix became a use- organ, but it still survives. All evolutionary survivals appear to be harmful. The appendix is the seat of appendicitis. In the inner corner of the eve there Is the remnant of a once useful third 11d, which now only lodges dust and causes irritation. The lord chancelior's wig was once a comfort in drafty legislative chambers now merely serves to make a se an look ridiculous and give him headaches, People who drew up laws were long ago pald according to the number of words, but the multiplicity of words ROW confusion. Bo the white shirt that was once a badge of wealth and culture, being no longer of value for that purpose, is only a cause of discomfort and disease, It ™ necessary to cut a plece out of the vest and the coat, just over the most important organs of the body, in to prove to our neighbors that white evolution vestiges less ancient and t vy nsible m only causes rel or oraet we wear shirts. in the winter time we expose the lungs and the air passages to the cold wind and the cold rain, From the of nothing uld be more stupid chitis ine of the most 11s 18 of health Bron pain view ail all deadly of all 1808 1 intry Bronchitis is simply Inflammation of the bronchial tubes, excited by a chill, a chilling of that part of the in order to show that we wear white shirts The pear in the tables of the registrar gen- as the of so many deaths, perhaps 100000 a year And does it really appearance?

The garment is uncomfortable, unhealthy and unbe- coming. And it has lost the only useful function it ever possessed--that is, its symbolism of exceptional w ealth we ought to discard it altogether. The difficulties of this course are very great no doubt. What we want Is an “antiwhite shirt society,” which would agree to wear, from some prearranged date, a dress designed wholly with re- gard for comfort, health and beauty. T. F.

Billing and cooing among the Fijians is a curious featurg in their social cus- toms. It is decidedly agalnst the rule to do any courting within doors. The gardens or plantations are the spots held sacred to Cupid, and the generally approved trysting place of lovers is high up among the branches of a breadfruit tree. You may often walk around a plantation on a moonlight night and see couples perched forty feet from the ground in the breadfruit trees, one on each side of the trunk, a position which comes fairly within the limits of a Fijian maiden’'s ideas of modesty.
