Manager Bolli of the Hotel Waldorf j.
about the busiest and most bothered man
in the United States at the present time.
Every body in the country apparently wants
to be- conducted on a visit of inspection
through his hotel. and he hasn't employees
enough tn attend To the visitors.
Mr. Boldt has had good reason TO know
that to some folks nothing is sacred. Visit
orS have taken all sort of odds and ends
and then excused their conduct ON the
ground that they were anxious to possess
souvenirs. Some Of them have even gone
so far as to dcfacc the carvings Of screens
aud other furniture which cost ~ small for
tune.
Mr.. Boldt said yesterday he had taken
precautions to guard against this in the
future. The craze reached its climax n few
days ago when "A couple Of richly dressed
women lunchcd ut the hotel and then
asked To he shown through the rooms. In
their rounds they took silver from the Ia
hlcs in the private dining rooms and any
thing else they could lay their hands upon

4 burning Glass" Made Of Ice.

a few years ago an English professor
caused quite "a little excitement among a
party Of skaters on Serpentine river by
making II lens uf ice and lighting his pipe
with il. This reminds the writer that this
curious experiment was first brought be
fore the public by the great DIR. Scoresby,
who, when in the polar regions, to the great
astonishment OF his companions-who did
not understand why the ice did not freeze
the solar rays-performed similar feat. II
may also he worthy of remark that Pro
fessor Tyndall, when Il teacher in the Royal
institute. on several occasions set fire TO
little heaps of powder with rays from an
electric arc concentrated by lens of ice.
His explanation was this: Although ice
absorbs rays OF certain waves of light and
is gradually melted thereby. there are other
kinds of waves which it does not absorb,
and it is these that produce heat at the
focus of the bar of light which passes
through the ice. In short, il is wholly "A
question of the relative motions of the
molecules of frozen water and those of the
waves Of the more peiivt rnring rays of light.

"A friend. They got into discussion about

His friend who sat at the other side of the

ordered the waiter To take away Franks
dinner, whicl, had become cold, and ordered
three plates of ice cream instead. Frank
soon came back in IL heat. He began To de
vour 1 lac ice cream while his friend chuckled
Afterward Frank complaccntly lighted Il
cigar. His friend did not know whether
il was Franks great likint, for ice cream or
that lac WAS absorbed by real estate. At any

about noon and said:

When One WANTS 10 Il. Alone.

The man who said there are moments
when one wants To he alone" knew what
he was talking about. and no one has more
reason TO appreciate this fact than wom-
an. Even the most affectionatc and com
panionablc woman in the world cannot en-
joy companionship il the curl is out OF her
bangs. especially if her companion be OF the
opposite sex There are other times, lots
of them. too, when a woman feels the neces-
sity of beins; alone. absolutely alone-for
instance, when she feels like having real
good cry. At such a time she wants to in
dulge in tears without caring u snap wheth-
er or not her nose is red, her eyes swollen
and her mouth distorted, and il there be a
witness To her distress the comfort she
might otherwise derive from food Of tears
i sadly marrcd by the consciousness that
she is looking like a fright.
No true woman can enjoy anything. even
grief, If she is not perfectly sure she looks
well. When a woman breaks her corset
lacins, loses her garter or her switch or
applies the blush of youth to her faded
check and touch of gold To her gray locks,
il is much better for her To be alone She
feels more comfortable and is less apt to
impair any emotion of admiration your
companion may entertain for you.-Ex

Ki..c. To the snowfiakc..

The divergence of points of view was

untimcly, supcriiuous blizzard raging, and
his breast had been filled with bitterness
and blackncss toward il. lie wished that he
were in Bermuda or Tampa or Pasadena

where there is never any snow-or that the

With futile scowl ON his face, he went

standing at the window throwing kisses mt

ing kisses to?" he asked in surprise. I'm
throwing kisses TO all the little snownakes"
said the child all smiles. going on with her
exercise.
Yet she had been shut up for days and
days on account of the weather, and spring
would mean Il great deal more To her than
Ia him. The man felt rcbuked. But per
haps she was throwing kisses To the SNOW
flakes he reflected, because she was too
young Ia know any better And then he
wondered whether it wouldn't be possible
for n middle aged man To put himself into
the same youthful feeling with regard TO

Girls In sleeping Cars.

The wise girl knows that nothing is quite
so desirable for wear in the sleeping car rs
n wrapper of dark colored flannel. IL may
he stated ~ q positive fact that women
who try q make themselves look coQuettish
in sleeping car and wear elaborate neg
ligees or lace trimmed wrappers show ex-
tremely bad taste. Experience has taught
that IA wrapper of soft flannel III stripes OF
black and blue, made in the simplest fash
ion, is most useful. When she is ready TO
60 to bed and the porter arranges her berth
for her. she goes Ia the toilet room, taking
with her her shawl strapped package. She
removes her shoes aud stockings, puts on
the knitted slippers that she has taken out
of her bag removes any garments which
she plca>cS and assuming her wrapper
which has been folded in her shawl strap,
repairs Ia her berth. After fastening the
buttons Of the curtains, she disposes of her
c!ot thing as best she can, folding each ar
ticle smoothly and carefully and placing
her money, watch and tickets in her wrap
per pocket.
And then she should try To rest-the por
ter will call her in good season. and her
ticket will not be asked for during the
night. In her shawl strap, which shows
as its outer wrapping "a shawl or travelling
rug. she may have her own pillow if she
desires it. But this is not a necessity, as
the cars are supplied with linen that is
usually fresh and clean. In the morning
the wise girl will put on her stockings and
shoes in bed, leaving the lacing or button
ing OF them until later. Then she will as
sumo her other garments and repair To the
toilet room. where she should rs expedi-
tiously as possible make herself neat, trim
and fresh, that her friends who are to meet
her may not find her d isiy nor travel
stained. This she should do quickly, that
she may not be classed among the women
who are the dread of all considerate women
on parlor cars-thc women who take and
hold possession Of the toilet room as if it
