COY JAPANESE Girls.
swess and craeerai Msid-ss Above An
Appeal To the Stranger.


Appeal To ths Stranger.
Nothing in Japan appeals more
eharmingly to the stranger-man or
woman-than the swee; ana graceful
mal9ens In their beautiful and pie
turesque costumes OF bright eoiored
silks. We laugh at Japanese women
dressing In foreign clothes Certainly
they are not as graceful as in their own
costumes. for they do not know how to
wear the occidental dresses. The wear
Ing of unfamiliar garments cannot be
learned In day. Let the American
girls try on the japanese dresses with
out the help OF competent oostumer
and see what they will look like TO
Japanese eyes. II Is generally be-
lieved In Europe and America that the
morals over there are very low. II Is
undoubtedly due TO the ridiculous and
most unreliable stories which globe
trotters delight in telling their friends.
There Is not In the world a more moral
people than the Japanese. These globe
trotters know absolutely nothing OF tie
Japanese women az the middle or upper
classes. and during the few weeks they
spend In Japan they only meet thu
geisha girls, whose business II is TO
sing and dance and sell their smiles.
Japanese women do not care much for
love-passlonate love--as II exists In
our country. Ia fact. It seems unknown
to them. Strange as Il may appear. \
kiss Is an unknown thing TO the
japanese In general. A lover never
kisses his sweetheart--a mother never
kisses her child. You can kiss any
japanese girl. She will not object, for
she cannot possibly understand What
You mean. She win only think "wha;
queer people those foreigners are"
japanese women have three reereations
smoking. singing and dancing. They
smoke most gracefully, as they do
everything This habit was introduced
into Japan by the span.ards some $50
years ago. japanese girls. however. do
not smoke cigarettes like the bellies OF
Andslusta. but pipes. the dainies, ntiie
pipes, beautifully ornamented. and

beauty which the japanese women are

PlayinR CnrfIa.

The Chinese, who, according to their
histories, invented everything before
anybody else, claim the merit of having
first designed playing cards and devel-
oped the games arising out Of them. The
Emperor Soun-Ho had many wives. who
naturally found time hanging heavily on
their hands, so the emperor devised
amusement for them by inventing cards
-thatis, if we are to put any belief in the
words Of the Chinese historians. There
were 80 cards in each of his packs-three
suits of nine each and three extra or su-
perior cards. The Chinese cards were
oblong as ours are, while those of the
HindOos were round.
Surprising though it may seem, it is
nevertheless true that the queen in our
suits Is a comparatively modern innova-
tion. The picture cards were at first
entirely military-king, knight and
knave. The Italians were the first, it is
said, to give the lady a place in the pack.

TaII Hats at the Thenter.

Said bright young lady who attends
frequently strictly first class theaters:

terfere at all with the view of those sit
ting behind me certainly think there
Is great need OF reform in this matter of
headgear at the playhouses. The mana
gers should formulate another rule and
strictly enforce it-that big bonnets and
hats D. left ut home or removed at the
amusement houses. Other rules are
rigidly carried into effect at the theaters.
and there Is no reason why another and
one Of the most important of all should
not find place among them and be as
carefully observed.
The other evening l leaned forward
and asked lady sitting in front Of me
il she would not remove her headgear.
as 1t interfered seriously with my vizzy
of the stage. She gave me "a SOok that
was principally one of amazement.
When she had partially recovered from
her astOnishment, she said that her hair
was not arranged in way permitting
the removal Of the article. OF course
that is something to be borne inmind bv
ladies who are inclined to favor this new
departure at the amusement places. ~

Fifteen thousand pilgrims annually
visit st. Baume, in Provence, not far
from Marseilles, where Mary Magdalene
is said to have spent the last 80 years of
her life.

Mary MEgdalene were probably sent
from Constantinople about the seventh
century. A Greek breviary, however,

Accustomed to Snakes.

ga curious thing about snake stories,''
said a gentleman who had just return
ed from his vacation, "is that people
with whom the reptiles are common
sight take very little stock in them.'
II have just returned from Massa-
chusetts, where I put in week on a
farm situated near the Berkshire hills.
The next farm to us was right on q
mountain side, where there were doz-
ems of huge rattlesnakes that had a
habit Of summing themselves in the
roadway-big fellows, too, they were.
"The old fellow that owned that farm
would read snake stories about mar
yelous reptiles in Georgia and Penn
sylyania. and say Gosh! them was
hummers!' Then he would go out to
NOW on the mountain side and kill
two or three big rattlesnakes before
he had gotten half way over the field.
7 saw him kill one on one occasion that
had six rattles and a button, and he
had very narrow escape from being
bitten. congratulated him on his es-
cape. and he answered: Mister, have
been killing rattlers ever since I was
a boy, but this is poor place for
snakes. They never do the tricks here
they do in Texas and out West
"He didn't mind the snakes he said,
but I did, and cut my visit short on
their account prefer to see my snakes
