Some idea of the enormous proportions
of the business of hotel keeping has as
sumed / this country may be gained
from the fact that there are in the
United States upward Of $4,000 hotels,
exclusive of what may properly be
termed inns and taverus and what are
commonly known as apartment houses,
although the latter are in many instances
conducted as hotels in that they have a
common kitchen and dining room.

Making Up the Face.

Actors have always painted the face to
render it more expressive, or rather to
give it some sort of expression when
seen at distance which it would other
wise lack it, as in ancient Greece, masks
were not employed for that purpose
China furnishes probably the best exam
pie of the antiquity of the custom The
use of the mask in Greek theaters, which
were vast and had not the modern re-
source of achromatic glasses, was q
cusable or even necessary. The RoiI...n
theaters were smaller. and the desired
facial expression was obtained by the
application of color In Shakespeare's
time, when female parts were played by
men, painting of tho face was absolutely
essential to the required illusion. SIM
liar reasoning is used on the modern
stage when painting the face is consid-
cred necessary for the stimulation of
more expressive at distance.
The practice is in many cases excusa-
BILE or even indispensable, for if the
actor or actress has not good stage
face, but one of those round, inexpress-
i've countenances in which eyes, nose
and mouth are at the distance of 20 feet
inextinguishably blended, it is certainly
permissible to obtain some measure of
facial expression by artificial means. 1t
is another question whether the contem-
porary woman should ever apply any
substance to her face to make her appear
younger, more beautiful or in any sense
what she is not.-San Francisco Chron-
ic1a

First Strike on Record.

First strike on record occurred in Rome
300 years B. G.. 1t was a strike Of the
flute players who got miffed because they
were refused permission to participate in
a banquet in Jupiter's temple. They
struck and the Romans couldn't get any
wind for their religious celebrations which
were in progress about that time. That
was bad state of affairs, but the flute
players 'Sao had gone to the village of
Thur were BAN boozled into filing up on
wind, and when good and boozy were
huddled into carts and wheeled back to
Rome, where they compromised with them
and gave them permission to participate
in the banquets on condition that they
would play at the sacrifices. So the first
strike turned out better than most strikes
do now.

their children homes. Why 3 fellow

The Doctor Will Catch It.


The Rev. DR.. Mathley, of the Concord
Baptist church of Christ at Brooklyn, N.
Y, is likely to encounter a storm OF
feminine vituperation on account Of a
recent sermon in which he dwelt upon the
fact that the Bible nowhere speaks of a
woman being in heaven. II don't believe
there is woman there now, or ever will
be-" he declared. His theory is that all
members of that sex twill go back into
their original state whence they were
taken by the Creator" and that when
the Savior said there were no mar
riages in heaven, but that all should
be as the angels, ''he meant that there
were no such creatures as woman in that
world of blessedness and song" This view
is not at all agreeable one, to say the
least, and it is to be hoped that DR.. Math-
ley is mistaken.
