Paris Is showing a hat on the foqaa order, which, because of Its shape, is known as the airship. It is made up In soft straw braid, and will be on of the season's extreme novelties. It's a very strong friendship that can survive Intimacy. Some men expect you to do a favor for them as if they were doing it for you. One reason a man likes to drink Is the doctor tells him it's bad for his health. Shaving yourself Is a very good practice at belug one of the best swearers. After a man has had his engage ment broken off he can afford even an automobile. A man makes as much fuss over doing his duty as a boy over getting a tooth pulled. A woman feels she Isn't loyal to her husband unless she (11)3 about all the money he makes. It's hard for a girl to take as much Interest in your love maWIng if she suspects you mean It. When a man Is making all sorts of faces at himself in a mirror he usually isn't crazy, only shaving.

You can generally figure out some bow what a man means by what he Bays unless he Is running for ofllce. You can't make a woman believe there Is any real trouble In the world on the first afternoon she wears her now hat. Uliero's hardly anything In the world excites a woman more than to have somebody call her up on the tele phone when she is away and not leave word who it was.

At a dinner of the Association of the Alumni of the Civil Engineers of Co lumbia University at the Hotel Astor David McClure told of somo of his experiences as chairman of the com mission to examine Into the sanlly of Harry Thaw. Incidentally he took a rap at expert testimony on the wit ness Btand. "In the course of my career," he said, "I have had much to do with alienists and alleged experts, and 1 have found that a lawyer can get as many alienist experts to testify for his side of the case as the funds of his client will allow. Not long ago I was appointed chairman of a commis sion to examine Into the sanity of a certain man. Two sots of alienists ap peared before tho commission. One set said that the fact that the man was Insane was indicated by a certain movement of tho hand while the other swore that the same movement of the hand tended to show that the man was perfectly In his right mind." He told of a case he had recently known where an alienist who had nev er seen tho man under consideration had given the opinion in court that the man was insane and had based his judgment entirely on a talk he had held with him over the teelphone. Mr. McClure went on to say that the law, which formerly was one of the greatest professions, had degenerated, until It hud become a mere business. "There was a time," Bald ho, "when the lawyer was the big man of the town and the people sought his ad vice and counsel, but today the law yer seeks his client. The successful lawyer is the one who can build rail roads that exist only on paper and arrange for the Issue of watered stock. The mad desire for money has got the lawyer in lis clutches." New York Sun. . The Carnations of 300 Years Ago. A St. Louis florist says that we pride ourselves nowadays on the size of our carnations, but the florists of three hundred years ago grew carna tions three to four inches across, as large as any that wo see, and thought nothing of it. All through Spain, Southern France and Italy, the carna tion Is the favorite flower, and has been for hundreds of years, but along the Mediterranean there are a few glass houses, for In protected situa tions and on southern slopes of hills even delicate flowers grow outdoors all winter long and bloom as freely at Christmas as in July. The big carna tions, however, were not grown in Spain or Italy, but in England, out doors during the summer time and be fore glass houses were linowu. Ohio State Journal. ' - Kissing the Book. The exact origin of kissing the Eook in English courts, though mod ern, is obscure. It is not, I should say, a matter of legal obligation, but seems to be more a custom dating from the middle or end of tho eigh teenth century. If a witness claims to follow the law, according to Coke and to take his "corpornll oath" by touching the Book who shall refuse him his right? "The kissing act" seems akin, in deed, to what the "fancy" call, some what unpleasantly, a saliva custom, which in modern western life exists in very few forms, though many of the lower classes still "spit" on a coin for luck.

More attention is to be given Southern States by the American Federation of Labor, which is plan ning to build up a stronger labor movement in that section of the country. The lack of working boys Is due to the prosperity of the masses of the people, making wage earning by the younger members of the family less matter of necessity than it was rears ago. According to the opinion of prom inent labor leaders, the most satis factory employment of convict labor would be on the building of public highways and the reclamation ot State lands.
