NEW YORK women are calling for the re-
moyal of men clerks in shoe stores and the
employment OF women, in order that "sensi-
tive ladies may be freed from the embsr-
RAISING and accidental annoyances which
now sometimes attend the trying on of new
Shoes" They probably think that female
clerks, knowing how it is themselves, would
be too sympathetic 10 smile when fair cue

AT last, says the Mobile Register, knotty
question Is solved. A New York authority

THE tolerance of Victoria, Princess I'm.
perial of Germany, has bred in her vigor-
GUS antipathy TO intolerance in others, which

court pastor, Adolphus Stocker, commenced
the anti.Semitic agitation by a sermon IN
which he called attention to the fact that
there were $4,000 Jews in Berlin, and ex-
claimed: "Das iSt su viel" The ugly words
nearly provoked bloodshed. The Crown
Prince was much displessed, and took an
early opportunity OF reproviDg the pastor,
while the Princess, contrary to all court pre-
cedent, invited some leading members Of the
Jewish community to dinner. She also en-
deavored to combst the anti.Semitic craze
with the most effective weapon-that of ridi-
cule-and this she used to do by relating
very merriy the story OF a jolter-headed
Juuker, who had rushed out 10 hot haste
