The Breakfast Table is informed of a
new idea of n shoe manufacturer, which
is reported to have been the means of
largely increasing his business. The man.
ufscturer in question sends out all shoes
of his make which are intended for ladies'
wear devoid of any stamp on sole or
upper by which the size can be told. The
reason for this is due to n request from
some of his retail customers to that effect.
When the shoe gets to the retail dealer
he may, if he chooses to do SO, mark on
the proper size; but he may, if he is un-
scrupulous enough, mark the shoe SO as
TO make it appear smaller than it really
is. That is, if a shoe were a 3 C he may
mark 1t at 2iC. 1t seems rather strange
that a shoe should sell more rapidly be-
rause 1t is marked wrongly, but if the
practice did not bring some definite inan-
sial return it would not, in all probability,
be pursued.-Boston Advertiser.

As the early pilgrims used to wear a
scallop shell in the front of the hat in
token OF their having made n pilgrimage
to the Holy Land, so the Montenegrins
have adopted a national head dress
which has peculiar significance.
1t is round, flat topped cap of red
cloth; round its side, and Just overlap
ping its upper surface, is stitched a black
band. In n corner Of the red circle thus
left at the top is embroidered a semi
circle, in gold thread, into which is often
worked the initials of the prince.
This cap has n symbolical meaning.
When the old Servian kingdom was bro
ken up, and the southwestern Sclavs be-
came subject to strange races, the wild
mountain district of Montenegro alone
preserved its Independence; SO its inhab-
itants draped their red caps with black,
in mourning for their enslaved brethren.
The corner of gold on the red cloth is
meant to represent Montenegro-the one
corner of liberty ON the field of blood
the n free spot of the old Sclav king.

In tho Right Car.

Yesterday afternoon n Cottage Grove
avenue cable train was hailed at Twenty
fifth street by two ladies. The train
stopped. A man on the grip had turned
half around to converse with a friend on
the seat behind him. The two were occu-
plying four seats. One of the ladies who
hailed the car tapped the forward man on
the arm n asked il he would kindly sit
back with his friend and allow them to
occupy his double seat. He could not do
otherwise, s he complied, but he grumb-
led the while about women invading the
smoking car when there was plenty of
room for them in the car behind. The
lady who had asked the favor overheard
the cultural remarks, but she said moth
ing. Pretty soon she turned on the man
who had made the quiet objections.
There was a cigarette between her lips
"Wm you kindly give me a light?o she
asked, as she reached out her little hand
for his cigar. He gazed at her in amaze
ment, but he handed over his torch. The
lady took a light and passed the cigar
bac with thanks. Then she gave her
friend a light. The rude objector wilted.
He will never again claim that the smok-
ers' seats ara sacred to the men. The lady

something Beyond Comprehen.lon,

But how is it with the distance to the
sun? If SO much time is needed to reach
the moon, it will take years to reach the
sun. Yes, it will-years and years. But
how many? 1t is a mere question of
mathematics. If the sun is 90, 900, 600
miles from us, and our locomotive travels
70 miles an hour, it will be 1926, 666
hours on the journey, or 51,111 days of
"a hours each, or 140 years. In other
words had the locomotive been known
in the middle of the last century, the
flight could have been begun 90 years
before the battle of Bunker Hill, and the
iron horse could have been ''thundering
down the ages" ever since, day and night,
at this terrific speed. What a distance
is thatl Yet that is but the radius of the
orbit whose circumference the earth
travels every year. Where are our ideas
of speed and distance? They are too
feeble for mention compared with this.
Then what possible significance can it
have to us to say that light, moving
with a velocity of 300, 900 miles a second,
will reach us from a certain star in so
years, from another in 80, from another
in 125? We are utterly overwhelmed, and
our own figures are infinitely beyond our
experimentation Union.

The peculiar methods of a veodoo doc
tor practicing at Madison, Ga, are thus
described: When he begins his practice
on a patient he gets a pot and fills it with
water and roots and puts it on the fire to
boil. While the water boils he gets out
in the door and shakes himself and says:
I'm a buzzard, I'm a crow, I'm an eagle,
I'm a kingfsher," then goes over a lot of
unintelligible incantations. He then
makes the patient look into the pot of
boiling water until he can see the one
who tricked him. The patient is visited
frequently at night. The pot with roots
and medicines is boiled, and the patient
must undergo a thorough rubbing with
the contents of the pot, while the doctor
doing the rubbing goes " his incanta-
tiona-EIchange.

A COMBAT WITH TWO BEARS.
Three Hunters Have Desperate Battle
for Thar lives

Three Hunters Have a Desperate Battle
for Their Lives.
The writer, while staying in the mount
aims near Bismarck, Saguache county, Colo,
in the winters of 1882, 1888 and 1884, enjoyed
no better sport, with his two trtlsty COM
panions, James Mathews and Sye Richards,
than hunting the bear and deer and having
an occasional adventure with wolves.
Of our many adventures, will state one
in particular AS our rude cabin was situated
almost in the center of cur hunting grounds,
we needed no more assistance than our own
muscular strength could afford in carrying
our game from the place of slaughter to the
cabin.
One fine morning in February as we were
starting out for hunt with our rifles shout
dered and our hunting knives in our belts,
we spied a very large bears tracks, and
therefore began the trail at once. We had
not gone far until we saw by the tracks in
the snow that the bear had been joined by
another one equally as large. cautioned
the boys to be on the lookout.
We had not gone more than twenty rods
when, to our great surprise, both bears sprang
out from behind a large mound, not more
than twenty feet in advance of us. l, being
the head one, quickly discharged my rifle, the
ball just grazing the shoulder of one of the
bears, which only added to the fury of bruin.
Both bears were now coming at us with fer
rocity James and Sye both fired, but in
their excitement and hurry both missed their
aim.
AS the first bear was in reach Of me l dealt
him stunning blow with the butt of my
rifle, breakingit and causing him to stagger
about in bewilderment.
Before had time to draw my hunting knife
the second bear gave me a powerful blow on
the breast, knocking me senseless to the
ground.
James and Sye now had the fight to them
selves. They were prepared, however, and
as bruin came at them James struck him
across the nose with his hunting knife, caus
ing him great pain.
Almost at the same instant the brute struck
with his right paw, knocking him to the
ground
Sye, who was not coward, sprang to the
left of the brute and sank his knife into
bruins heart James was now upon his feet
while the other bear was eyinS them with
savage growls
Jim, for heavens sake load your rifle as
quickly as possible, while watch the angry
BRUTE" exclaimed Sye.
As James had his rife almost loaded the
bear sprang at Sye unexpectedly and knocked
him down. But the load from Jim's rife put
an end to the struggle.
How we got home do not know, nor do
think any of us knew great deal about it.
As soon as we were able to leave our cabin
we went to Bismarck and purchased three
Winchester repeating rifles and made the
boast that we were not then afraid of at,
lacking any five bears. l stayed with the
boys the next winter, and that spring bid
them farewell" and returned to my peace
full home in Llinois.-St. Louis Globe-Demo-
