Do you put the dot high above the letter
II Do you put it close to the letter? Do
You send it flying before? Is it fat, round,
irregular? In each case your popularity is
the outward and visible sign of some lido
syncrasy, says master in the art of graph
ology. Look at the dots of your i; try to
make them different-smaIler, larger,
rounder, more oblong-you cannot do it.
The dot above the only changes with your
character"
Here are some conclusions which the
authority quoted says the ladies may draw
from the telltale dot:
If you often forget to dot your you will
also forget other things which seem unim-
portant to you, but which for the comfort
of everyday life are as necessary as the dot
is to the i. If you have often to look in vain
for the dot you will also look often in vain
for other things, because you have not put
them in their proper place For instance,
you put the fifth knitting needle into your
book because you We're suddenly called
away and no better book mark was at
hand. You were anxious to finish your
sock-where is the fifth needle2 The serv-
ant girl must have mislaid it while dust
ing Servants are such a trouble. In or
der to practice patience and self control you
knit on with four needles, gently pardon
ing" and presently turn back to your in
teresting novel. The book opens imme-
diately. and there and then the glittering
needle breaches a silent sermon to you.
If the dot flies high above and far away
from the letter to which it belongs, your
hopes, thoughts, wishes and aspirations are
apt to fly about in far off regions, and in
stead Of making practical use of the pres
ent day you dream of the ideals of the
future. If this 'high flown" dot is of an
oblong shape; and if, in conjunction with
it, the loops of your |, h, 6, f, ETC., are loose
and long, then goodby symmetry and calm,
for you have very little self control.
If your husbands dots are heavy, shape
less and blotchy you will have a hard time
of it where food is concerned. He will not
be satisfied with a cold supper, an aesthetic
tea or meal of beef and vegetables On
the other hand, you have in his favorite
dishes means TO pacify the grumbler, and
to incline him to listen to your wishes.
Your request for a new gown, for theater
tickets, which was peremptorily refused
before dinner, is listened to with much
more interest after the man of the heavy
dots has had good meal Never ask
such man to grant you favor when he
is waiting for his dinner. The larger the
dots appear the more critically dish will
be attacked and judged.

Senator Plumb said in his recent
speech before the Kansas editors that he
believed Kansas newspapers outranked
those of any other state, and he had crit
caliy examined the newspapers of nearly
every state in the union. The selection
of news was, in his opinion, the most i'm
portant thing which now falls upon an
editor. He would eliminate all the sem
sational features. In conclusion he said
he regarded the lease" the real, practi-
cal educator of the day, and believed
eventually that the great college of the
world would add an experience at the
printers art as the finishing touches of
graduates. The senator's high estimate of
the press as an educator and moral power
is not alone matter of observation, he
learned it in his early manhood, being
himself one of the most Jealous of the
fraternity.

Some Kansas newspapers have fallen
into the habit of assuming thar, because
certain of their contemporaries are too in
dependent to submit 20 the party lash,
their political uttcrances attract no at
tention and are not influential. This Is
sheer nonsenfe, sample of highly at
tenuated and very puerile hog-wash.
The most influential journals, political
and otherwise, in this country today,
papers that have large following and
whose influence is most potent in shap-
ing and guiding public opinion, are not
the hireling partisan organs but the indie
pendents whose untrammeled utter
ances are stamped with both sense and
sincerity.

The murder of Sam Wood is the COM
pletion of another chapter in the history
of Stevens county. The county has Away
been disgrace to the state.-Salina Re
publican.
Such wholesale denunciation of a COM
munity is without warrant and uncalled
for. There may be larger proportion
of bad men in Stevens county than
other portions of the state, but it is not
true that the community is composed
exclusively of bad and vicious people,
and it is not right nor expedient to cast
hspersions upon all for the misdeeds of
part, which are no doubt heartily
regretted and condemned as by the good
citizens of that county as of the state at
large.

Journal. "The time for the west to as

assert herself it plainly must do SO

her the power. New York may have to
work with us. Kansas may hold the
key to the situation. The fact at least is
patent, that the whole combination is
not held by New York and Indiana"

The pope has sent a beautifully bound
copy of his discussion of the labor ques-
ton to all rulers in Europe. To many of
these personages he wrote personal
letters also. He has given orders to his
secretary to present copies of the work
to cabinet ministers and political econo-
mists in various countries. The pope
evidently attaches a good deal more
potentiality to the document than will
many, if any, of the potentates.
