Mr.. Ward MacAllister received 5000 for the

which is now in the hands of the publishers. He
! will in addition receive a royalty of thirty cents

to see that Mr.. MacAllister will make neat for

Rudyard Kipling's favorite method of mani
festation for his peculiar genius of word-etchpg
seems to be the short-story. These he is turning
out with rank fecundity suggestive of those
teeming Indian jungles where his genius was
nurtured, and which he depicts with a vivid
force that tiushes the imagination with all the
heat of actuality. 1.-The Phantom Rickshaw
and Other Tales" is the latest volume of tales
by Kipling that has been issued. The stories
have all the charm and power of those that have
gone before. The volume is issued by j. S. Ogl-
vie, New York. Brentan has it for sale.

Intensely warm weather is not one of those
evils that grow more tolerable as you become
more familiar with them. But there is this
mitigating circumstance about the continued
heat, however, that it seems to have completely
sapped the energy of the madding individual
who would ask, sis this hot enough for you ~
if he had the strength to do it.

While the report recently sent from st.
Petersburg, to the effect that the Gar had
issued ukase expelling all Jews from Russia,
has been denied, there seems to be good ground
for the belief that the barbarous anti-Semitic
feeling in that country is again rampant. The
truth appears to be that while no ukase against
the Jews has been issued of late, there is danger
that old edcts against them may be revived
and enforced. These edcts would make it i'm
possible for Jews to continue to live in Russia
and would entail on the unhappy people untold
loss and suffering. This being true, it is plain
that the United States Government could use the
influence which it is supposed to possess with
the Cars government in no better or more
humane way than in urging revocation of the
barbarous edicts against people to which the
world owes such an immense debt spiritually
and intellectually, and who have in all ages sci
it such an example of thrift, patience, perse
verance, and heroic fortitude under merciles
persecution.

The citizens of the pleasant and rapidly de-

Shaking Hands.

IL would seem that sixty years ago
shaking hands between persons Of diff
ferent sexes was hardly proper, and that
ten or twenty years earlier 1t was con-
sidered highly indelicate. My authority
is the following, copied from the law re-
ports or the Examiner for 1885,
"Count Of Arches, November 10, 1925

Sir john Nicoll, III giving Judgment.
said that conduct highly biainable and
distressing to the feelings OF a husband
had been proved, bnr, although thirty
familiarities, had been proven beyond a
kiss. The shaking OF hands when they

tween persons Of different sexes. However
opinions might differ as TO its delicacy.
