In South Africa the gourd I called the calabash. Boers made pipes of the gourd for many years, but the world took little notice until after the Boer war, when the English began to Import them. Later the demnnd spread to the United States, and now there Is a large market for the plpe3 at 8 to $12 each, according to the circular of the Department of Agricul ture. The Boers tried to monopolize the seed of the gourd, but a large supply has been secured, and there Is pros pect that the crop will become gen eral. It Is asserted that tho gourd pipe- color like meerschaum and are hlgMj appreciated by smokers.

He tells funny stories about how u woman drives a horse, and steers his automobile up a telegraph pole. He 1 always adding postscripts to his letters but he uses the long dlB- ance telephone to explain what he omitted In his business communica tion. He can explain the wireless telcg raphy system to hi wife, but he can not understand ber description of u new bonnet He loves to tell of th splendid ex ercise of sawing wood but he Is will ing to pay another man to enjoy the exercise.

He doesn't go to church on Sunday because he wants to read the paper but through the week he Is satisfied to glance at the headline on hi way down town. Th Ancient Brahmin. Th Brahmin were the lawyers, priests, professors, the sole Instructed class, the sole authorities on taste, morality, the sol depositaries of what ever stood In the place of science. Everybody was to minister unto them. everybody to give way to them. The Brahmin waa above the law. He waa not to be subjected to corporal pun ishment, must not be Imprisoned, or fined, or exiled, or reviled." In the law of the Vishnu It was written The Brahmin Sustain the world. It is by the favor of the Brahmins that the goda reside In heaven." Under EngllBh rule and Idea the ancient cast ha lost some of Its prestige, but Is still a forcible reminder of Its form er grandeur. Japanese Custom. A writer, describing scene on Jap anese railways, says when a native lady enters the carriage she slips her feet from her tiny shoes, stands upon the seat, and then sits demurely with her feet doubled beneath her. A mo ment later she lights a cigarette, or her little pipe, which holds Just enough to produce two good whiffs of smoke. All Japanese people alt with their feet upon the seat of the car, and not as Europeans do. When the ticket collector attired In a blue uniform enters the carriage he removes his cap, and twice bows politely. He re peats the bow a he comes to each passenger to collect the tickets from them.

Llangwln might stand as the deal of the most extreme advocate of women's rights, for there the wom en are In supreme control. The met are regarded merely as household con veniences. They stay at borne and look after their domestic duties as the women go out and act as tht "men of the faintly," earning the fam ily livelihood and also holding the family purse strings. The women are the owners of the farms and cottages, and their husbands are perfectly satis fied that everything should be In their bands, doing such work as their wives tell them and filling an entirely sec ondary place In the household.

Constance had been eating Ice i cream. Now Bhe took the spoon ti n jf her mouth, turned It over, and v' it In again. "H'm!" she mused, ' can't very well help that." "On tho contrary, you can vi well help It You treat other lust the way you treat me. And I you frankly I don't like It" Doth of them were angry now; int torttinatelly her partner for the ne dance appeared and Dick withdrew The newcomer was long and nario-i In build, nnd looked like an Eng ib' man.

"I think It Is the world's alTilr, Would It be Jutt for married pemve 'o go about ps unmarried. Don t i on lo It to enable ber to attract more en?" "I don't like the way you put It," rortcd Dick.

"H'm! Well, I don't bellevo In gnppnientB at all." "Never expect to get married?" "Married first, euEifed ai'ter." Constance laugUed nervously. A little later a park policeman wro bad been leading on the handle bars of his bicycle, saw'a man running to, ward an automobile which stood be fore the house on the corner.

Bored Undergarment Keeps Billowy Flesh Within Bound. Vhnt with banting, rolling, dieting r- c i performing all sorts of acrobatic. unpleasant tasks, the life of the ; n it woman has recently been a sad one. Rubber underwear and marvel tons corsets have been advertised In profusion and now comes a California oman with an undergarment that is - 'gned to aid In the war against ,. This garment 1b a two-section af- fair, boned from the waist up to the armpits and down over tho hips. The advantage of this boned part I that wbon the garment Is drawn In tight with the drawstring at the waist, It compresses the superfluous flesh Just as a corset would do with the addi tional advantage of fitting closer to the body than a corset. A woman wearing such an undergarment, too, would be able to dispense with a cor set, thereby acquiring greater freedom of movement and having a more slend er apearance by reason of having fewer layers of clothing on. The Useful 8lde Pocket. Housekeepers will appreciate n pift of a side pocket to be worn about tho morning tasks. So equipped, a demand for puree or key does not mean a trip up stairs or a wild search. While leather pocketB can be bought for such uses they do not quite fill the need for house wear, as they flop around and rub the skirt A pocket such as tailor wear, but more artistic, will prove convenient This Is made of heavy, smooth cloth Jn envelope shape, and stitched on the ma.'hlno. Cut a strip of cloth twelve Inches long and five inches wide. Fold up the end to the depth of two and one eighth Inches from top to make the pocket Slope the edge beyond the pocket Into a point, like the flap of an envelope. This point Is provided with a buttonhole, to fasten to the belt." The pocket part should have but tons and buttonholes or patent clasps along the upper edge. Though deep enough not to drop the contentB, It Is often convenient to cloBe the top when working actively. The edges of the bag may be finish vl In several ways. When making it for one's own use the edges may be pinked, and the turned up parts Btitch ed on the machine. When Intended a a gift elaboration Is preferred. If P'nking is liked, a line of briar stitch ing can be run around the bag with in the line of pinking. This can be eked In a contrasting color, and a monogram In the same color can be embroidered In the centre. Again, the edges can be neatly bound with heavy satin ribbon or a fine silk braid. This usually look he'ior In self tone3. the monogram be ing the one touch of color. Child Botanic Genius. Millie Snow, a daughter of a farm laborer, exhibited no fewer than 109 Rrecimen3 of wild flowers at a flower show In Halbertcn, England. She Is only 15 years old, still her knowledge of wild flowers in England I ur parcd by only a feww experts who hav.e given their lives to the study. The child Is credited with a genius for nature study, and is being en con r- ped to follow her bent. She was awarded a special medal, In addition to the valuable prize she won, for the finest wild flower exhibit. Many chil dren bad wild (lowers on show, but uoue of them npproached that of lit tle Millie, which had both quantity and quality. It was found also she bad labeled all of the 109 specimens without an error. To Perfume the Hair. One of the latest aids to beauty Is the perfumed nightcap. This is very much like the cap worn by our grand mothers, but on a much more elabo rate scale, being made of silk or very fine muslin, trimmed with filmy lace. Cunningly concealed in the cap Is a tiny receptable for scent, and when worn It leaves a delicate perfume clinging to the hair. It need not nec essarily be kept for night wear alone; if it is put on for half an hour or so before dinner the perfume will cling to the hair for the remainder of the evening. Shirtwaist Hint . If a shirtwaist has to be raised at the shoulder, take pattern and lay a small tuck across the back and front at center armhole. This will leave original shoulder and neck, and will not pucker as if you take up shoulder after it has been cut Small Hope. "Did she refuse him?"
