About timers.

The Americans are badge wearing
as we'll as a title wearing nation. 1t
is very insignificant individual who
does not display upon his scarf, vest
or lapel the insignia of at least one
society, organization, lodge, frater-
nifty, order or league. Sometimes it
happens that man is successfully
college Greek, mason, veteran and
politician; and it behooves him to
invest in pin, badge, charm, PEN
dant or button to represent each and
every one. Indeed there is no law ex-
cept the word of his wife to prevent a
man from belonging to any number
of societies, and it is customary to
have something to show for it in each
instance. There is man in Burling-
ton, Ia, who has a penchant for Sc
cret societies. He belonged to so many
that he could not remember the names
of all of them, and so he adorned him
self with all the insignia at his COM
mand and had his photograph taken.
His broad bosom was literally covered
with medals, pins and badges The
sight would have made the favorite of
a king jealous, and broken the back
of painted Indians proudest war
whoop.
Once in a while man is found who
puts all his titles upon his cards. He
is the High Squingee of the Fa Ku
Wole visiting delegate of Noble Cob
blers, secretary of the Artless Travel
ers, G. r. B. Of the D. H. T., member
of the general conference of the asso-
citation of Q. H. S., and so on. 1t is
impossible to gaze on such a man
without feeling of awe.
And yet, seriously speaking, these
emblems mean great deal. They re-
present fraternity, charity, love, good
will and good faith. They are outward
signs of an invisible yet powerful tie.
The effect has on the whole been good.
The badge business is overdone,
sometimes, that is all.-Minneapolis

Bouquet Begging.

James Fair tells st. Louis Globe
Democrat man: 1.-The cutest conf
dence game that ever heard of was
practiced on myself l was coming
up Broadway few days ago with a
button hole bouquet given me by a
friend pinned to my coat, and was ac-
costed by two ragged little wrens-
little girls-who very piteously asked
me for the flowered trophy, which |
had owned but a few hours, and
which, by the way, was very pretty
and attractive. With a deal of reluc-
tance | gave it to them and passed on.
Shortly after that, as l returned, was
approached by another little girl, who
offered for sale the same bouquet had
parted with but half hour before.
Realizing that some sort of a combine
existed between the one who offered
to sell and those to whom had given
the flowers, l determined to buy and
watch developments. For ten cents |
bought the bouquet. AS soon as she
received the money she broke straight
for a newsboy, had the dime changed,
ran to the alley across from the Lac
lede hotel, joined the two girls who
had done the beg act, and divided the
spoils. Each girl received three cents,
which left one cent over. How should
they divide the cent? They flipped
for it. How much they made that
day in this way do not know, but it
is reasonable to suppose that l was
not the only one who was made dupe
of by those three ragged little wrens,H

Luther's "Table Talk"

Remarkable was the discovery of
Martin Luther's Table Talk" In the
year 1926 German gentleman named
Casbarus Won Sparr was engaged in
building a new house. In the course
of their excavations the workmen
came upon a small square package
wrapped in strong linen cloth, which
had been carefully plastered all over
with beeswax. On opening and ex
amining the parcel volume was dis
covered This volume was Luther's
work, the only copy in existence. 1t
had evidently been buried by Won
Sparr's grandfather to escape the PEN
atty of an edict issued by Rudolph II,
at the instigation of Pope Gregory
XIII, making it death for any one to
possess the work. The loss of this
book would have been a great misfor-
tune, for without it we never should
have understood the character of the
great reformer-never have known
what he was when surrounded by
his family and his friends.-ChicagO
Herald.

Literary DiahOlism.

The exhibition of vile books on the
stalls outside librarians windows is at
all times an offense against decency
in Paris, but during the last three or
four months the scandal has become
such as to justify any modern Juve-
nal in describing this city as an
immense lupanar. Old Rome as
described by Juvenal could hardly
have been more corrupt than
is Paris of the present day, to judge
from the literature that one sees
everywhere offered for sale with alb
solute liberty and absolute shameless
ness. The government pretends to
exercise some control in the interest of
public moral over pictures and illus
trations, but the pen and the printing
press are free to pander to the worst
passions. Books professedly obscene
are those which meet with the best
sale. A gloss Of luxury is generally
put upon all this vileness by means of
fine paper and printing and engrav-
ings that are often beautiful from an
artistic point of view.
A work of this kind entitled "Pour
Dire Entree Hommes, which appeared
lcW ulOHIllS ago, HIS HOW fuu
through several editions No fnan-
cial risk appears to be incurred i'll pub
fishing literature of this sort. 1t pays,
consequently men of talent are enticed
to wallow in the slough. The pros
titution of the arts to the most sordid
aims was never more fiagrantly appar-
ent in Paris than it's at the present
time. In addition to the ordinary sup
ply of indecent literature intended for
French readers, a mass of literary OBJ
scenity has issued from the press this
summer by strangers attracted by the
exhibition.
And the fact is worth observing, in
asmuch as it is not at all to the credit
of the Anglo Saxon race, that when
such putrescence is published in a
foreign tongue the language chosen is
invariably English. 1t must find
plenty of purchasers or there would
not be such keen competition in sup
plying the market. The indifference
of the French legislator and the nation
generally to the disgrace that is insep
arabic from the public display of all
this obscenity in the streets of the cap
ital is really astonishing. One is
forced to the conclusion that the spirit
of uncleanness must be strong in a
people who can tolerate the spectacle
of this villainous traffic being carried
on with the same publicity as in the
sale of any other articles de Paris

A Brilliant Idea.

Along about ten o'clock yesterday
morning a young man crossed Van
Buren, street on Clark and walked
north with a huge bundle under his
arm. On the end of the bundle, in
stencil, was the number ''3,61S." The
young man did not notice this until a
friend stopped him at Monroe street
and called his attention to it. Then
he colored up and said: 'Yes, l know
what you mean. 1t came from pawn
shop. Well, it did, and I'll tell you

preserves it for me meantime. Whyl
Well, because if he allowed it to be eat
en- up by moths he could never sell it if
l did not call for it. Seel AS it is, Ihave
my coat well cared for during the hot
weather, and when l want it again I
simply go and get it, paying the
