THE DIMMING OFWCIM
Why Her Helpleeeneea Makea Her
More Charming to Man.
Professor Thomas, of Chicago Uni
versity, writing of "The Psychology
of Woman's Dress," says:
"The proverbially bnllow mind of
".:r v.ry beautiful woman la not dus
to the exhaustion of nature's re
sources on her exterior, but to the fact
that her attention la so bound up with
the expression of her own charm that
it stops with that. And the bomeiy
woman who competes with her has a
still more absorbing problem. The
foolish and disrespectful customs of
courtesy which men practice toward
women are also a product of woman's
dress, and tend to keep her helpless
In mind and body. The helplessness
Involved in lacing, high heels, undivid
ed skirts, and other Impedimenta of
women baa a certain charm In the
eyes of man. Their helpfulness showa
him off better by giving freer play to
his protective and masterful InBtlncts.
It Is bis heroic opportunity since the
disappearance of large gaipe and In
the 'piping times of peace.' To flatter
this disposition of man, woman there
fore assumes even greater helpless
ness than she possesses, and the most
romantic periods In history are those
characterized by tight laolng and
purposive fainting.
"The pole of 'half angel and half
bird' Is a pretty one. If you can loo'i
at it In that way; but It denature"
wom;n. makes her a thing Instead o
a person, a fact of the environment
and an object of man's manipulation
trsead of an agent for transforming
the world. It leaves society short
handed and the struggle for life hard
er and ujiller than it would be If wom
an operated In It as the substantial
and superior creature which nature
made her. We have a machine-mad
civilization which has introduced
class inequalities, hatred, and suffer
Ing unknown In savagery or barbar
ism. Wo are wealthy but not human
ized. Man Is pursuing business on the
same pitiless principle that be former
ly pursued game. Women have a
base of maternal feeling that makes
thera more social than man, and if the
economic value of the superfluity o'
their dre?z and the energy and atten
tion they waste in following the fash
ions were devoted to humanistic en
terprises we should be In a fair way
to add the elcmei-ts lacking to make
our machine system a civilization. Bit
there is no use trying to talk fash
Ions down. The change will come
gradually, as women become more In
tell!gent and Independent and of them
selves 'experience the expulsive pow
er of a new affection.' "
Turtle Tortoise Shell.
Most of the tortoise shell of com
merce Is obtained from the hawks
bill turtle, which Is taken chiefly In
the Caribbean Sea. Turtles caught In
these waters vary In aize from 1 to
4H feet long, with a maximum weight
of 100 pound3, and the average weight
of shell obtained from each Js from 6
to 7 pounds. The commercial valut
of tortoise shell - depends upon the
thickness and size of the plates rather
than upon the brilliancy of the colors
The price of shell In this market flue
tuates from JJ to $8 In gold per
pound. As the bes,t prices are ob .
talned In England, the largest amount
of the shell shipped from these part
goes to that country. The San Bla
Indians, however, trade a largi
amount of shell to coasting schooners
which Is partly carried to the States
and partly brought to Colon.
Splitting the Difference.
When jurymen in Stony Gulch disa
gree, there Is usually some menibe
whose influence, backed by his recog
nixed "handlness" with a gun, carrie
the day. "Some thought be'd ough
to git three thousands' damage, an
some thought four thousand," salt
Bud Lewis, referring to a recent caie,
"but I persuaded 'ess to compermise '
"Indeed!" said the stringer, with a
wary eye on Mr. Lewis's gun, which
be seemed to be fondling in rather i
careless way. "What sort of a com
promise?"
"1 put It to 'em, "Why not split th
difference and call It five hundred?
And when I'd brought my reason t
bear on 'em." aald Bud, with a loving
gaze at bis weapon of defenne, "the
all coma round to that compermise in
no time."
Insulted.
Andrew Tboiuas was a great "for
gettur." He fcrsot to pay the mone.
be owed, ar.d to give people back tli.
tiling he burrowed. Moreover, be
waa "touchy" on the subject, so tha
few of a is (rier.Ja liked to hint tha
be had any of their property in hit
possession. One d ly one of them tooli
his courage In his hand.
"Where's teat live dollars you bor
rowed of me last month, Andrew?" h;
asked. "I dou't want to seem tight
but I've Just got to"
Andrew replied with dignity. "1'.C
you ever see auytbing I didn't return?
No, I guess you didn't"
Three Religions in China.
There are three existing religion
in China, Confucianism. Iluddhistu
aud Taoism. No ecclesiastical bier
arcby is maintained at the public ex
puue, nor is there any priesthood f.t
tached to the Confucian religion, al
though that Is the state relittion. Th
bulk of the people are Buddhists, but
many, to be on the safe side, practice
all three.
Sterilized the Baby.
An Atcison only child aays she
was so carefully raised tbat when she
was a baby, an 1 her mother's callers
kissed her, the minute the callers left
her mother rushed upstalrswlth her
aud sterilized her. Atchison Globe.
Only Cautious.
"Tou ran into this man at 30 miles
an hour and knocked him 40 fct,"
said the Court.
"That, or a little better, I suppose,"
answered the chauffeur.
"Why didn't you slow down?"
"Mere precaution, your Honor. Once
I shut off speed and kit a man so
gently that be was abbs to climb Into
the DMcblnt and, five cue licking."

IT WAS NEW TO THE BISHOP.
A Dinner Episode That Orestly Shock
ed His Dignity.
At an unusually large dinner-party,
where the guest of honor was an Eng
lish bishop, the butler, an elderly man.
was obliged to bring in from a friend's
bouse an inexperienced lad to belli
him in the dining room. The awkwaid
helper annoyed the butler beyond en
durance witu questions aa to his da
tiex lie continued Interminably until the
butler, worn out and nervous, said
ironically:
"All you will need to do la to stand
behind the bishop's chair, and when
ever his lordship puts down bis glass
you must reach over and wipe bis
mouth with a napkin."
Tbat silenced bis assistant. But the
young man actually took the order
seriously, and aa soon aa dinner be
gan he atatloned himself behind the
bishop, waited till his lordship had
drunk and put down hie glaas, and
then, as deliberately as his norvous
resa would permit, be opend out a
Irrre napkin and wiped the dljnl0e4
S'i lUu;aq'i mouth,)
WHY WE ALL COMB BACK.
Sad Tala of Deceit from tha Blue
Grass Country.
Old man Wowton, the meanest citi
zen In all the Blue Grass country,
drove up to"the market place In Lex
ington, where an army of negroes stood
about or Ley u.-.'.;iug in the early
morning sun waiting for soma man to
hire them. The old man was so stingy
tbat he usually bad great difficulty in
engaging negroes to do extra work on
bis farm, but this time he struck a
bargain with big Dill Saunders and
tbe half-dozen powerful but lazy
blacks who followed at his heels. All
the others were greatly surprised to
see this gang ambling out on the big
road toward Mr. Wowton's place. Next
morning they were mystified to see
big Bill and his cronies again In the
market place.
"Whadja doln' hyuh, Bill?" asked
Hannibal Harrison Tyler.
"Lookin' fo' wuk." Bill replied, sad
ly. "Thought you-all wui wukkln' for
Mlstuh Wowton?"
"Yaas; we sut'nly wux wuk'n fo'
Mlstuh Wowton. He come to me yls
tldday mawntn' an' say: 'Come on
out an' make hay fo' me. I aln' goin
ter pay you-all enny mo' dan one do!
luh a day, but I jes' tell you dis
ev'y meal you-all sits down ter yo'
golnter have fo' kin's o' meat an' fo'
kin's o' bread." So we-all tuk our foot
in our ban' an' went out ter make bis
hay crap."
"Well, den, huccome you-all la come
back?" Hanibal Inquired.
"I gwine tell yuh," William replied
with an Injured air. "Ylstldilay mawn
ln" we-all wukked in de fiel", cuttln'
hay an' rakln' hay an' spreadln' hay,
ontwell de dinnuh ho'n done blew at
twelve o'clock. Don we goes Inter de
kitchen, an' all wo sees on de big ta
ble Is a lot o' miz'bl' po'k an' greens
an' bread. So I goes np t' de big
house an' ax Mlstuh Wowton ter come
down, pleare, stih, an' look at dat din
nuh. I say, 'Mistuh Wowton, whar
dem fo' kin's'o' meat you done prom
ised, please, suh?'
"Mistuh Wowton he say: 'W'y
daiah dey Is fat meat, lean meat,
skin an' bone. Daiah yuh fo' kin's o'
meat.'
"Den I sez ter him, 'Mistuh Wowton,
whar dem fo' kin's o' bread you done
promised us?' En he say: 'W'y,
William, daiah dey Is white bread!
co'n bread, crus- an' crumb. Daiah
yuh fo' kin's o' bread.' An' da'a why
we-all come back hyuh."
