No Handsome BicycIiennes.

To the Editor;
1t is something OF interest as ''F. w Eich-
berg says that VIC want to see in the letter

forced to see a continual repetition Of nonsense
as exhibited by the monomanlacs Truth and
-Four" Regarding the subject OF Gains wife.
there is an observation in my Bible in Genesis

servation: "she was a daughter Of Adam, and
Gains own sister. God dispensing with such
marriages in the beginning mankind other
wise could not be propagated. The person who
signs himself "a True Friend of Woman" Is
really so, as his letter would go to prove

French bread.

The quahty of the French bread Is
generally good, but 1t varies at different
establishments, and even in the best
bakeries the bread Is not always good.
The pain ordinsire is frequently slightly
sour. This is because some of preced-
ing batch of bread is used with the
yeast to raise the dough. There being
SO much crust and so little crumb In
the bread this acidity is not SO disagree
able as it would be in d loaf of English
or American bread. In all bakeries one
finds, besides the breads, certain kinds
of little cakes and buns; these are gen
orally very plain when the establish
ment is simply a boulangerie.

Shameful Waste of Coffee.

The American waste of choice coffee
is Turkey melting. A Turk in a Frank
lin street wholesale house weeps him
self much" every time he himself
thinks" of 1t. He says: AT home we
roast the coffee you burn 1t; we pow
der 1t. you grind 1T; we steam 1t. you
cook It, The result Is we save the bou-
quet, the flavor. the strength; you lose
them all in the burning, grinding and
boiling" There is nothing in the wine
or liquor trade that is a better aid to
digestion than sweet, black coffee. Az
ter-dlnner coffee requires one teaspoon
full OF powdered coffee for each cup.
This makes a powerful neutralizer.
Breakfast coffee should be diluted 90
per cent. with boiled milk, for the sake
of the nerves. the complexion and the
health.

Next to their frugality and exquisite
neatness, a remarkable thing about the
Japanese is their great love for the lit
tie folks. They have an extraordinary
talent for making their doll babies
happy. They are forever inventing COM
ical toys and designing fantastic little
playthings to amuse them. With us, the
grandfathers and grandmammas are the
children's playfellows and best friends:
over in the sunny little empire all the
world has nothing more important to
do than provoke the pleasure of his own
child or the Mr.. Little Boy or Miss Lit
tie Girl of his neighbor, as they are
always called At the bazaar, on fete
days, at festivals and concerts, the in
describable little creatures are seen

yellow arms frightened lovingly about
some big sisters or big brothers neck.
They have peppered jam. iced beans and
picked sweetmeats to their hearts con-

lemon leaf, and as many dolls, kites and
colored lanterns as they can possibly
carry away from the booths.

How Women Should Eronomize.

Save the emotions. Horrible tales
criminal records and histories of crint
are too expensive. Sweet, dainty, de-
icate woman needs finer food for tn
soul. Calamities, murders. qt!arrels and
fatalities will happen. They are in the
line of the philosophy of evil, and their
discussion can do no good Reckless
sympathy is wasted energy, and en-
forces needless distress upon the sensi-
b'lities. Keep out OF the slums. slaugh-
ter-houses and sewers. Walk in the
sunlight, look up. and let the vision o1
brightness on the mountain tops be re
guiding star. Lofty thoughts that nour-
ish the finer nature are not to be found
in the cutters of life. So a little old
tutor of Columbia College believes.

AS the season draws on when all

The Spy system" of securing evidence
against violators OF the Excise laws Is
most Objectionable. But. as Supt. Byrnes
says in announcing his determination to
return to 1t. despite the resolution OF
the Commissioners to the contrary II Is
the only method by which the required
evidence can be obtained under present
conditions. The evil Is one which will
disappear when the Excise laws are SO
changed for the better that the ma

1t Is her own fault If a woman Is un-

must turn in the edges, and make allies
instead OF antagonists, of the people
about her. Spotless neatness, becoming
