TO pisssace the Fashionable cigarstse.

70 pfsSlace the Fashionable Cigarette.
Fashion has devised way to avoid Gig
erette smoking and to do away withit in
costly manner end one'not SO offensive. 1t
is O Feveraien TO &Iay pipes. Not the crdi-
nary clay pipes that sell TIVE for cent,
but French clay pipes that cost from rs
cents to go. These pipes are much the
same as the cid style clay pipes. They
have q stem from to inches long, q
little tip at the end and bowl. The bowl,
though. does not hold any more tobacco
than the average cigarette. 1t is about
one-uuarter of the size Of the usual clay
pipe On the stem are stamped some let
tiers showing that the pipes arc manufac-
tured in Paris. They have the French
trademark The plain pipes cost TO cents,
retail, .or half as much by the quantity.
Any man who intends to smoke them in
the fashionable manner must buy guam
.ity.
With the pipes is bought an amber and
silver tipped moutkpiece. This is two or
three inches long and is what costs. A
pipe is not iatcnded to be smoked more
than at one sitting, then it is to be thrown
away and fresh one inserted in the holder
in its stead. This looks fastidious, costly
and fashionable. The pipes and the holder
go in Russian leather case lined with
pink sill and stamped with French names.
The pipe rests in soft blue velvet. This is
pretty and more fastidious than cigarettes.
1t costs more than cigarettes and Is not so
offensive or injurious. 1t does no more
harm than smoking an ordinary pipe and
is probably less harmful, Is less tobacco is
smoked. There is no paper, mucilage or
anything except the tobacco put into the
pipe.-Chicago Herald.

She yVas Honest ANYWAY.

One of the funniest Of incidents, in which
a darkey and played our parts, was one
day not long ago when G judge and his
bride from Rochester were riding with me
in Victoria TO see a famous old planta-
ton on the outskirts Of Savannah The
judge had never seen anybody 'toting''-
that is to say, carrying burdens On the
head-and there all the cOlored working
folk carried baskets and bundles in that
way. Noticing the judges interest in the
custom, and seeing seolored ''aunty' ahead
with bundle on hor crown, said aloud:
Look, judgel here's more toting.n Alas!
the colored woman heard me.

THE TROUBLE IN NEWFOUNDLAND.
Plain Statement of the Fisheries Row
Between France and England.
oil Oar

NEW YORK, June 7126.-The present
trouble in Newfoundland grows out of
the mistake that England made in ever
permitting the French to gain foothold
on the island. This foothold was first
authorized by the treaty of Utrecht,
signed in 1913, and although it led to in
terminable disputes it was confirmed by
several other treaties.
While this treaty recognized the right
of England to the full possession of New
foundland it provided that sit shall be
allowed to the subjects of France to
catch fish and dry them on land in that
part only of the said island of Newfound-
land which stretches from the place
called Cape BOnavista to the northern
part Of said island, and from thence, run
ming down by the western side, reaches
as far as the point called Point Richie. !"
By referring to the map it will be seen
that Cape Bonavista is on the east coast
On the south side Of Bonavista bay, and
that Point Richie is on the west coast
about third Of the way down from the
northern extremity of the island.
The treaty of Versailles, signed in
1898, made an important change in
these limits. The limit on the east coast
was fixed at Cape st. John, on the north
side of Notre Dame bay, and the limit
on the west coast was fixed at Cape Ray,
on the southwest extremity of the island.
The coast between these two limits
measures probably a thousand miles.
Here the French were permitted by the
treaty of Utrecht to build ''stages made
Of boards and huts necessary and usual
for the drying of fish," end the same
treaty prohj bited them from resorting to
the island beyond the time necessary
for fishing and the drying of fish"
Not contented with making these ex-
traordinary concessions, George III ac-
companied the treaty Of Versailles with
this remarkable declaration: His Bri-
tannic majesty viii take the most posi-
tive measures for preventing his sub
jects from interrupting in any manner by
their composition the fishery of the
French during the temporary exercise Of
it, and he viii for this purpose cause the
fixed settlements which shall be formed
there to be removed" AS a consequence
of this blunder the settlement and de-
velopment OF the French coast have been
prevented.
But these are not the only grievances
of the Observation-Disclosures. In spite Of
treaty stipula6ons forbidding the cree
ton Of permanent buildings, the French

Saved by "A Fish.

A sculpin is not usually considered a
very valuable fish, but one performed a
great service for a Maine schooner The
Sea Foam, Of Lubec, while coming out of
a harbor at the Magdalen Islands, struck
on the bar and sprung leak. She made
for the nearest port, when it was found
that her shoe and part of hex false keel
were gone, and there was hole in the gar
board into which the suction had drawn a
large sculpin, tail first. Had it not been
for this FISH the vessel and cargo would al
most certainly have been lost.-Philadel-
