TALL GIRLS TO BLAME.
They Are Responsible for Short nfen'a
High Heels and Hats.

They Are Responsible for Short Mems
High Heels and Hats.
''Put two extra lifts on the heel" ac-
companied an order to shoemaker.
Tally another victim of the tall girl"
the shoemaker remarked.
''How is that?" asked the reporter
for the New York Sun.
why, there are SO many tall girls
nowadays that the average height of
men must be raised. Up to few years
ago the lowest heel was the rage, but
now the heel is decidedly higher fig
ure it between half and three-quarters
of an inch 1t is all the growth OF re-
cest years. 1t isn't fashion, either, for
you'll not find the high heel among tall
men. It's only among the little fellows
who try to add to their height but ever
SO little. But even hale an inch counts
in mans height. A few years ago
man Of five feet six was seldom over
topped by lady. Now the man OF five
feet eight is not iufrequently looked
down on don't suppose any city in
the,world can show SO many tall girls
as are to be seen in Broadway, Four
teenth and Twenty-third streets these
days. They are not thin girls, either,
but we'll -proportioned and solidly built,
which makes their height all the more
exasperating TO an undersized man.
You see, by adding. a little to his heels
and to his hat man just under the av-
erage can lift himself up to it,
81 wouldn't be surprised if the tall
...1 Il
ing our high-hat trade" Broadway
halter said ''It must be, for none OF
my tall customers has asked for a higher
hat. Those who have worn felts and der
by crowns still wear them, but have
observed a steady change from low to
high tops for my short customers. ]
think sometimes that the tall girl is re-
sponsible for this change, because a
five foot six inch customer came in here
not long ago and asked for my highest
hat. He had a good pair Of shoulders
and could carry it we'll, but he had al
ways worn low hat | asked him why
he changed. ooh, I've changed girls
and the new one is about half an incl,
taller than l. If get high hat it will
even us up when we appear on the
street."
A Twenty third street dealer in WON
EMS shoes has felt the influence Of the
tall girl. "We have customers now to
whom we cater with low HEELS he
said. 1.-THE tall girl differs from man
in not being proud Of her height. She
knows a little girl is more likely to be
esteemed affectionate and loving by the
men than is tall girl. So she tries to
get down to the loving level. Then,
again, she knows that the little girls
have more chance Of securing beaux,
for the tall girl must restrict her hopes
to the average-sized or tall men. Short
men do not like to go out with girls
several inches taller, and SO fall back
on the petite. So, where men are hav-
ing their heels made extra high, girls
and women are having theirs lowered.
What is true of tail girls shoes is equal
ly true in regard to their hats. They
are lowering them. too, and the fat hat
is as sure to come in again as it is that
the tall girl is here to-day .- ..

A Lasting Superstition.

The horseshoe superstition still sticks,
and junk dealers find it profitable to
keep horseshoes in stock for sale tc
dwellers in the tenement~house region,
where horseshoe over the door is still
not uncommon, says a correspondent.
If all the money drawers of small shops
could be rummaged enough horseshoes
could be found to supply half the
equines in town. The superstition is
that the shop will do good business
SO long as the presence of the horseshoe
is known only to the shopkeeper. On q
recent rainy afternoon a neatly-dressed
girl, daintily picking her way across
Fifth avenue at Twenty eighth street,
suddenly stopped, stopped, picked up q
wet and dirty horseshoe, tucked II
away under her waterproof, and went
on in smiling anticipation Of good luck

On several occasions pipes of peace
and other symbolic missives have been
received by the president Of the United

The Moquis Of New Mexico once sent
him a small quantity of wild honey
wrapped in the inner husk of an ear OF

of the husk, chew it and spit it out upon
the ground ID order that the country
