QUALITY IN OUR SOCIETY.


An English visitor Finds Glasses More
Distinct Than In England.
We have '.nown Mrs G. Of Fifth ave-
nue. for some years, and during her an
nual visit to London have improved the
acquaintance Of this charming little
lady. She has all the fascination of the
attractive American woman She is
surprised and apparently delighted to
see us, inquiries how long we have been
over and thinks it ''too bad that we
have not been sooner to call. She is dis
pensing afternoon tea to a young man
whom she introduces. His name is IA
miliar as that of a family of million
aires, and as such is entitled to respect
He is quiet and reserved, bows low to
each of us i'll turn and talks in a sub
dued voice through his even, white teeth.
Only Il tone here, an infection there,
betray the fact that he is an American
His phrases are carefully chosen and are
rather perlativo-curiously in contrast
with the quietness and apathy of his
voice and manner | take him to be a
type Of the society man
Mrs G. is also type. Her vivacity
is contagious and her conversation I'M
tagging She passes lightly from one
subject to another. Every thing she says
is worth listening to They are both as
different from ordinary middle class
Americans as are the English upper
classes distinct from the lower. 1t is a
study in human nature that people
speaking the same language, living in
the same city, influenced by the same
feelings, should be- in all things, so ut
terly dissimilar as those who compose
society and those who do not. 1t is not
a question of education. E. M. Hart

THE FREAKISH STAR MIRA.
NOW AT A MAXIMUM STAGE OF BRIGHT

Those astronomers who give special attention
to variable stars have been watching Mira with
great care during the last three or four weeks
inasmuch as il is now, or has been recently al
another maximum stage In its nuctuating bright
ness. For a short time longer it will continue
To be a naked eye star and then il will sub
side again into invisibility.
Mira also known az On.icron Ceti. shows
three four kin Is of irrcgularity. The average
interval between one maximum and the next Is
about eleven months. a more precise estimate
makes it 332 days. But the event does not
always occur on schedule time. For the last
few years it has been from six weeks to two
months later than the predicted date as II

suspect that Its period has been Increased by
fifteen or twenty days. Another uncertain feat

days-hardly that. Sometimes il extends through
a month.
