Tho Truth In Hot Weather.

We are accustomed to say that the
Americans are generally truthful peo-
pie. Is it owing to our climate? That
has great extremes The mean is fair,
and produces national veracity. Whence
comes, then, the habit of playful exag-
geration. usually harmless. and perfectly
understood as humorous? Is it the re.
suit Of the extremes of heat and cold, es.
pecially of heat2 Observation ought to
tell Us whether we are more truthful in
the winter than In the summer. and
whether the national habit of using ice
water for beverage is an attempt to
countersct the yeracity destroying power
Of high temperature.
There is no doubt that we unbeud in
summer: moral reforms relax; the city
churches are closed; society falls into =

seriousness Of intention with the advent
of the bracing autumn. Apparently il

two hundred and fifty thousand; the
number of ovules in flower OF the Chi.

however, how much care Kelley takes
to keep up his appearance.
OF course in New York it is perfectly
easy to keep ones self pressed, but when
he is travelling on the road it is quite a
different matter. The actor resorts to
various methods to retain that beautiful
crease down the front of his trousers,
one of which is to take his trousers when
he undresses, stretch them carefully into
shape. and lay them between the mat
tresses of his bed-when his bed has two
mattresses.
Last year he left western hotel in a
hurry and left pair OF trousers behind
him, for which he telegraphed back from
the next town. In the meantime Mr.

hotel the next night and been assigned

The People of Paraguay Take Things

Butter is very rare In the Paraguayan

household going, with the help OF or

are the ordinary and extraordinary ar

women to do what little work Is abso
