And in that letter it said:
The Pillow Nuisance.

'I happened to be in Kansas City while convention was on," said F. s. Mics, "and owing to tho crowded con- dition of tho hotels was compelled to double up with stranger. He was a very pleasant man of German descent and did nothing cratic until he went to bed. Then he removed the casters from the legs at the head of the bed, so as to make it lower than the foot, placed his pillows at the foot of the bed and went to sleep with his head at least l2 inches lower than his feet. He slept the sleep of the just and had to be called half a dozen times in the morning. We went down to breakfast together, and ridiculed him for his peculiar sleeping posture. He quoted some German sci enlist with five syllable name as his authority, and so convinced me of the fact that it is entirely mistake to SUD- pose that pillows and holsters are neccs- sary that l discarded both and found to my surprise that he was right. The dis covery was a revelation to me, but it is certain that to some people at least q pillow is a nuisance instead of a com fort if they only knew the fact. "-St. Louis Globe-DemOcrat.

He has thus won the right to bc called the great American traveller. When Mir. Vincent left Yale about quarter of a century ago, he found himself possessed of n large fortune and n great ambition to hobnob with the strange peoples of the earth. He believed that q man should thoroughly know his own coun- try before ho began on the others, and accordingly ho made n two years tour of the United States. visiting the capi- tai of every state.
 Then he descended upon South Amer ica, mastered the countries and their customs from Venezuela to Tcrro del Fuego and wrote book describing the interesting things he saw. Europe was his next geographical feast, and for dcs- sert he took in nearly all of Asia.
 When he had scaled the great wall of China, he made thousand mile cxcur- sions through different parts of the great empire. From China he travelled to India, and from India to Australia.
 Three years ago Mir. Vincent planned a 65, 900 mile trip as nonchalantly as most men would plan n visit to q ncighboring city. It included a jaunt through cen tral Asia, the thorough exploration of the island of Madagascar, which is as
 large as France, and trip entirely
 around the great continent of Africa. In tine course of his African trip he ire quently left the coast line he was fol lowing and made long journeys to the interior. He followed Stanley's trail up the Congo, visited Lake HaugwOolc, where Livingstone died, inspected the gold mines of the Tramsvaal and the diamond fields of Kimberley, looked ovcI Dahomcy, the land of the warlikc ana. zons, visited Liberia and spent seven months i'll the Congo Free State.

edge, where the skirt is of fashionable width, measuring about 3Ia yards in the medium sizes. The diStcnded effect may be emphasized by canvas, moreen or crinoline.
 The ovCrskirt drapCry is ill circular style, with bias back edges that arc joined ill n center seam. It quite con ceals the gored skirt at the back and al- most conceals it at tho front, but dis plays it for some distance at the sides, where it is raised stylishly and arrang- ed in box plait that is of moderate width at the top, widens gradually to- ward the lower edge and Is held in place by straps tackled underneath. In front of the box plait arc three forward turn ing, overlapping plaits that give a graceful cross wrinklcd effect. The top of the drapcry in front of thcsc plaits is slightly gathered, and the fullnCss at the back is maSsed in coarsely drawn gathers and falls in soft. graceful folds to the lower edge. Tho drapcry is trim med at the bottom with five rows of rib bon placed at equal distances apart. Summer silk, grcnadinc, crcpon, chal- lis, organdy. batistc, lawn and various lightweight materials that may be prct- tily decorated with ribbon or bands of velvet will make up stylishly ill this manner. The trimming may be put on in rows as represented, or in waved or curved lines, or ill series of points, any artistic disposal that individual taste may suggest being allowable. The fashion greatly favorS combinations both of materials and colorS.

BICYCLE WITH AUTOMATIC FIRING Ef.NOINEIs
 largo pistol is attached to the front of
 tho wheel. and when scout ar skir-
 mishcr goes forth with warlikc intent
 he can slip the pistol into his jacket,
 connect it with the front wheel by n se-
 ries of rods and in n few moments find
 himself ready to give m enemy n very
 warm reception. Tho pistol carries six
 cartridges, and eight more may be fed
 into it automatically from the magazine
 above.
 The soldier wheelman thus has II shots at his disposal, and, what is more important, the apparatus is so arranged that by pressing lever on the handle bar the revolver is fired automatically by the revolving of the front wheel of the bicycle. If the rider continues to press the lever, the entire II shots may
 be fired, but by releasing it at n given time he may fire only as many as he ee. sires. Another peculiarity of the attach. ment is the fact that the pistol has ar arc of fire us great as the distance the
 handle bars will turn to right or left. | If the scout is brought to bay and fore | ed to dismount, he may either stand be side his wheel and fire the pistol by hand or attach the weapon to n light shoulder piece carried on the wheel ana use it as if it were n rifle. General Miles has seen the apparatus and speaks
 very highly of it. The inventor is 6l
 years of age. His best known work thu:
 far is tho Stevens dynamite shell, which
 the government has successfully tested.

Did you ever notice" asked n young man, calling attention to n passing CclCs- tial. that Chinaman always carries his hands in his packets when he is passing along the strcCts:"
 No" replied his companion, II never did"
 Then you haven't been very OlIscry- ant," said the first speaker. 1t is so much the rule that I'll agrCc to give you q dollar for every Chinanan who passes while VIC stand here with his hands out of his pockets if you will give mo cents for every one who has his hands in his pockets" The proposition was agreed ten, and tho two prepared to watch. Presently Chinaman came in sight around Good wins corner, swinging his hands careless ly. The two young men and two others who had joined them laughed as the China man passed by, unconscious that hc was knocking out pet theory.
 Just wait" said tho man who proposed the bet, and they waited.
 In u few minutes another Chinaman was seen going up Stato street. He then Lad both hands in his packets, but glanc- ing at the city hall clock he immediately took out his watch, proceeded to wind it up and passed by with both hands out. Three of tho young men laughed, and the other tried to join in the mcrrimcnt, but | his smile wus faint and sickly. He man. aged to get out fecbly, Just wait" and again they waited.
 It wasn't long before the next Mongo- lian hove in sight. He had n bundle iE one hand and n cigar in the other Just my luck, :" said the man with n theory.

"Paco," called Gervasio. And Paco suddenly halted, much frightened, upon hearing that cavernous voice and catch ing sight of specter which he could not quite make out.
 "It is I, Gervasio."
 "I am afraid, said Paco.
 "No, man, don't be frightened. Come, help me take this of, for can't do it alone"
 "Well, all right
 And, staggering, he entered the room after Gervasio. But as Paco understood just as little about armors, and, on the other hand, was not very steady, he did not improve the renewed efforts other wise than by two or three little scratches which the mason inflicted on the trou- badour's neck with the edges of the hell met

 "It may open, but I do not see the trick of it. Now I'm sleepy. I'm going to bed now, and tomorrow I'll see if Mrs. Nicasia, the porter's wife, can't take this off of you, for she understands those things, since her husband was watchmaker in Jetafe before it became municipality.
 Gervasio had to resign himself to his fate.

Then again he thought of how costly were the glories of man and suffered still more from the trials of a pianist who lived in the third story, who never took any rest herself nor allowed her neigh bors to rest. Finally he heard the door open and saw Mrs. Nicasia enter with the breakfast.
 The good porter's wife nearly dropped the cup of chocolate at the strange sight. But she had been informed of it all and began to try her luck. At about 1 o'clock the next morning, when the baron arose, his valet brought him letter bearing the word ''impor- tant.
