PERSONAL APPEARANCE
Bret Harte wrote in one of his stor
ies that you couldn't judge anything
by the appearance of his characters.
The biggest scamp had a Raphael face,
the bravest man in camp Was the small
est, the surest shot had but three tin
: gers and the best-dressed was the worst
' gambler in the State.
The same rule often works out in
real lift. Nobody wrote more dry
philosophical boofcs than England's
! prize jihilosopher, Francis Bacon. But
: line day while ill and without consult
ing any works of reference he dictated
; a volume of jokes which is still the best
I collection to be found in London,
j When Stephen Crane wrote his "Red
Badge of Courage" old soldiers thought
I the author must have gone through the
. war. Just out of college. Crane had
scarcely ever heard a gun fired, and he
was not born until years aitei Appo
mattox.
A 220-pound bully was making trou
ble in a Philadelphia street railway car
when a small, pleasant-faced youth re
monstrated. Every one expected to see
the giant literally crush the young man
who had interfered. As they stepped
V
HARRISBURG STAR-INDEPENDENT, MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 22. 1915.
off the >-ar the bully was knocked sense
less by a blow of the other's list—the
fist of Billy Roeap, then champion ama
teur lightweight of America.
I heard Bob Burdette. the funny
man, tell how the soldiers laughed at a
young fop of a cavalry officer until
they saw him just once leading a
charge. Then they knew it was Gen
eral Custer, and they laughed no more.
So you cannot always tell what is in
a man's head or his fist by his personal
appearance or by his previous work. —
Philadelphia ledger.
The Spinster's Hint
A maiden well advance-d in years
nseil to wait every morning for the
postman, a bachelor of about her age,
tnd him if there were not a letter
for her. Several weeks passed thus,
but the anxiously expected letter did
not arrive. Finally one morning the
postman said to her:
"Well, to-morrow you shall get your*
'etter if I have to write it m.vscij,"
"That's ri>;ht; do it," repliW the
old maid. "I shall be delighted to ac
cept it."
"Well," said the postman, smiling,
"what do you want me to write —a
business letter or a love letter t"
"If you mean business, please write
a love letter!" was her blushing reply.

FOX TROTTING AIDS INSANITY
Asylum Patients Improve After a Few
Dances
Philadelphia, March 22. —Fox trot
ting is good for insanity, according to
officials of the Municipal Hospital for
the Insane at Blockley, where the pa
tients enjoy the modern dances at reg
ular intervals under auspices of r.he
Association for the Employment of Iho
Insane.
"The dance certainly has curative
properties," says Miss Marv D. Mc-
Murtrie, piesident of the association.
"Tho patients know the modern steps
and some display grace and elegance
in the art. After a few dances the
most irritable and wayward patients be
come amicable and seemingly rational
for a while."

Pension
'' Pension" is among tho numerous!
cases of words of Lntilf origin spe- j
cialized to moan something! which the I
original did not mean to the Romans, j
"I'ension" signifies simply a payment
in the broadest sense, and we are at j
liberty to draw the sound moral that a
pension is not really something thrown j
in as a gratuity, but deferred pay. Tim |
word for a soldier's pay was '•stipend-1
ium, and here we have another curi- |
otis shift of meaning. Not>odv speaks of j
a soldier's "stipend"' now. It is a mag- ]
istrate or a clergyman whose pay re
ceives that name. The "Stipendium" |
Nothing Can Do j
more to complete your costume than a pair of stylish
boots or pumps. For spring wear we are now showing
WALK-OVERS
in all the new and fashionable models, in all popular
leathers and fabrics.
