vinita,a Rat story

The Muskogee Phoenix tells story
Of how lady discovered the method
employed by rats in moving an egg.
Vinita has rat story A few morn
ings since one ofour awyers who board
ed at the hotel missed one SOCK and
after carful but fruitless search was
compelled to give il up" and to get
along with half rations in this line.
Next morning the other sock was gone.
This was more than the legal gentle.
man could stand, without a struggle,
even though Jerry Simpson does pass
his days in Tins condition. A hole
leading from the sleeping apartment
into store room was noticed 10 a

and the adjoining room opened. On
the floor lay both socks with small
hole eaten in the toe Of each and be-

Secret of Real Beauty.

An ugly woman-and there are such of
us, observation-disclosures never attempt
Vatican effects; she must forcgo min
iatures, aigrettes, delicate lace and for
get-me-not silks. Let her adopt copper
and bronze, nuns cloth, monks flannel,
alligator feathers and the like. Things
are pretty only by contrast, and II pair
of bronzed dragons in her ears will be
vastly better than diamonds the size of
chestnuts
Bernhardt is far from beautiful, yet
she never enters Il room without turning
peoples heads and putting them to Won
dering the secret of her charm. She
never has been known to wear diamonds
about her face. When asked why she
said, with shrug of impotence:
What? Put brilllants in my ears to
kill the light in my eyes and the colors
in plymouth! am not so mad rs that"
Aud so she saves the delicate and pre-
cious stones for her finger rings, slippers
and belts, and has the oriental beads and
ornaments Of china, metal aud pebble
about her face, hair and throat. New

power is something wonderful. There
ere few men who could successfully and
ProfitaDly take her place as manager.
She rules like dictator. Last year she
ginned 800 BALES of cotton, running the
engine herself She is notably hand

An Aged Mute and Her Family.

In Monongahela township there re-
sides Mrs. Sarah King, widow Of Horatio
King. She was born IN New Jersey in
1902. To us that seems long time ago
lacking less than eleven years Of being
century. Mrs. King is mute. Her
three children were in no way afflicted.
One strange fact is that she named them.
OF course she could not speak the word,
but designated the two brothers and sis
ter whose names her children should
bear. She could do all kinds of work
and do it well. She taught her daughter
to be Il model housekeeper. Mrs. King
was not educated; though she learned to
make beautiful capital letters, could not
form them into words. A stranger meet
ing her would not think her both deaf
and dumb. She understands all that is
said to her if she can watch the person
talking. Her eycSight and general health
are good. She is the Oldest person in
her township. Waynesburg Pa.) indie

A novel way of treating dress skirt,
while in no way destroying the sheath
like appearance which fashion affects, Is
to slash it from hem to waist on the
right side Just few inches, say four or
five, from the bodice point. Beneath, on
the foundation, lay few folds of silk or
velvet to simulate an underskirt, and
then tie the edges Of the upper dress with
ribbon bows and short ends. If desired,
more elaboration may be supplied by
putting narrow galloon round the edge
of the dress and carrying it up either

Fame All at Once.

The Book Buyer prints a portrait OF
Mary E. Wilkins, whose name, If not
literally in every ones mouth, is in
every newspapers literary column these
DAYS. What IA meteor flash fame IS, and
how impossible to guess when and where
it is going to strike. Miss Wilkins has
been writing stories for six or eight
years, every whit as bright and natural
and lifelike us those she is writing to-
day. They were published in the Har-
pers' AMI other leading publications, but
the writer was in no sense famous until
all at once the hour struck and fame was
hers. No longer ago than last spring a
query was sent from this office to the
head Of literary syndicate which is sup
posed to have knowledge OF every writer
of any note in England and America,
asking the address Of Mary E. Wilkins.
The answer came promptly back, eve
never heard Of her" They have heard
of her now, however. Springfield (Mass.)

Where Women Improve.

Nothing is more gratifying than the
progress women are making in extern
pore speaking. Even in Sorosis the
ladies five years ago could speak moth
ing like us well us they do now. Often
they use no notes whatever. The way
to learn eXtempore speaking is to be-
gin and preach your speech over in
your mind beforehand, thinking it out
carefully, but not writing line of it ex-
cept the headings. Then when you arise
to deliver it you will probably forget
two.thirds of it, but never mind. Keep
practicng, and you will gradually re-
member more aud more of it, and new
thoughts will at length come to you
upon your feet. No matter if you do
forget part Even Wendell Phillips al
ways did that, but nobody knew it but
himself. New York Commercial Ad-

Mnmrn in Swiss uniyrrsities.

Between 400 and 500 women studied
at the Swiss university last year; 220 Of
them were regularly matricdlated, and
were preparing themselves to take de-
grees; 1iG Of them came from Russia,
2G from Switzerland, 81 from Germany,
IL from Bulgaria, and from the United
States; 1916 of them aspire to diplomas
in medicine, 6 are in the legal depart
ments, and 81 are trying to become doc
tors of philosophy. Switzerland is about
the only country on the continent that
has not taken pains to keep women as
far as possible from its universities, and
with each new concession from the
faculties the number of women attend
ants has been increased. Ten years ago
the number was only so; five years ago

Where dancing is tabooed it is diff
cult to know just what to do with the
people that you like to invite to your
house OF course there are dinners and
teas and musicalrs, but in the course of
human events one tires of all three and
signs for something newer and less con-
ventional. Among novel forms of en-
tertainment which clever hostesses are
carrying out is the so called Russian
reception" The card of invitation is tho
same as for an ordinary reception, but
when the mystical words Russian even
ing are engraved in the corner the recip-
lent knows that she will meet at the
house Of her hostess some artistic and
literary people whom she has long want
cd to know; that there will he II deal of
bright conversation interspersed with
music; that II simple standing collation.
will be served, and that she, together
