There are very few people who 40
not love the pansy, and one great rea-
son for Its popularity is the ease with
which it may be grown.
Pansy plants are raised by getting
good, seeds and sowing in shallow
boxes in the house, or hot beds out
doors. Fill the box with fine prepared
dirt bringing 1t nearly to the top. II
is not necessary for the soil to be very
rich, but make the top level, and scat
ter the seeds as evenly as possible,
when done, slft some soil over them
until they are covered about quarter
Of an inch in depth. Next give
light sprinkling, and then wet a piece
Of spongy paper, or brown wrapping
paper, and put over the top Of the box,
set in sunny window free from draft,
and in about eight days you Will see
the first tiny shoots appear. Don't
pour water over the soil, but let all
the moisture come through the paper
which should be frequently moistened.
BY May the plants will be large
enough to set out of doors. Select a
cloudy day and have the ground deep
and mellow, set the plants about
eight inches apart each way. BY
July they will blossom and continue
until late In the fall. There is really
nothing hard about growing these
pretty little plants and the slightest
effort on the growers part will be
more than compensated

There is great prevalence of left
handedness in Chicago. This is par
ticularly noticeable in the way the
citizens of that metropolis enter a
building. If a man approaches a
building where the entrance consists
of two swinging doors, he will in
variably reach out with his left
hand, pull open the left hand door
and make wild dash TO get inside,
running the risk of collision with
anybody who remembers that to go
to the right is the first law of navi-

TROUBLE ABOUT THE HATS.
Enects Of Ahsentmindedness Among Mem
bers of q Club In Newark.

Effects Of observation-disclosures Among Menu
bers of Club In Newark.
There is club in Newark, N. j.,
whose members seem to have con-
siderable trouble about their hats
when they lay them in the rack at
the clubhouse. There have been fire.
quent instances lately in which
memb bers have been unable to find
their own hats when ready to go
home. 1t is most sedate club, with
q membership largely made up OF
staid, middle aged merchants, man.
ufacturers and professional men,
and there is not the slightest reason
for attributing the exchange OF
headgear TO jocularity or convivial-
ity.
tits regarded as simple absence OF
mind when a sober lawyer goes
home with a derby three sizes too
small for him perched on the top OF
his head and compels some equally
grave member to wear hat which
rests on his ears, or when member
leaves his silk hat behind and hur-
ries home wearing a soft hat which
is the counterpart of one hanging in
his own hall.
Ii is said that this latter occur
renee happened quite recently and
that when the member reached home
and saw his own brown alpine on
the hall rack he compared the two
hurriedly and hastened back to the
club just in time to find the owner
of the brown hat making time
about its disappearance. The fius-
tered member handed over the soft
hat and explained the mistake, but
was still more flustered when the
other member said:
"But this is not my hat. I buy my
hats of Smith, and this is one Of
Jones'"
In comparing the hats in his hall
the absentminded member had nat
urally put his own hat on his head
and rushed back to the club. The
two members live close together,
however, and the exchange was
made that night. Another case
which happened did not end SO pleas
antly. A member walked off with
another members hat and discover
ed next morning that it had the
owners name in it. He called upon
the owner of the hat at his place OF
business and said:

A STUDY in PIE EATERS.

"Have you ever noticed, said the
observing man in quick lunch res
taurant, "how different people eat
pie and what prompts them to eat
it9"
"No; cant say that ! have" re-
piled his friend,
"Well, ! have made astudy of IT, "
continued the observing man, "and
a mighty interesting study have
found it.
II don't doubt that you have"
said his friend, "but am too busy
a man to waste my time with such
tommyrot. )"
"Tommyrot nothingl Do you see
that man over thereG Well, he's a
rock ribbed pie eater. I'll bet hat,
resumed the thoughtful one, he
eats pie now because he became SO
addicted to the habit long ago that
his system will not assimilate any
stronger food. / would wager a.
house and lot against secondhand
pie that if you talked with him he
would tell you that the American
people eat too much meat. OF course
he realizes at times that he should
not eat pie, but his system is SO
much run down that he has not
strength Of mind enough to resist
the temptation. Do you see that 9TH
er man over there9"
"Yes, I see him..
"He's only an occasional CUSTOM
er. He is comparative stranger to
beaneries He frequents them only
when he wants quick lunch, and
he takes pie because he has vague
idea that pie is about all they sell.
Then, again, he knows pie, and he is
doubtful about the rest of the stuff
sold in these places. Five minutes
after he has had his lunch he
couldn't tell you what kind Of pie
he had eaten to save his life. Now,
that other fellow in the corner eats
pie because it is filling for the mon
ey. That man seated next to him
eats pie from the force of habit. He
really wants only cup of coffee,
but he feels that he should order
something else, too, SO he takes pie.
Look at that man who has just
come in. He eats pie because he
likes it. He has no fear of dyspep-
sia, and he devours his pie with rel
ish. Probably in few minutes he
will be drinking lager beer in the
course of making business deal.
You can't hurt Len of this kind.
There is another kind of pie eater !
have noticed. He is the man who
eats pie with apologies. He likes
pie, but he thinks that it is unmanly
10 eat such stuff. Then we have the
artistic pie eater. The~e is one OF
the latter class over hear the door
now. He eats pie with the most ad-
mirable self poise, neither too slow
nor too fast. He does not show Ell
ther toe much liking or indifference
for pie. He eats pie because he likes
it, and he does not care who knows
it,
t'Well, say, how many kinds OF
pie eaters are there anyhowi"
"Oh, lots more than ] have men
toned, but it would take too much
time to describe them all. There,
look at that young fellow with the

A few years ago the reading of
Indian Territory exchanges was
limited to few very good week
lies that came in, all in bundle
along the last Of the week, but now
quite large number Of very bright
and newsy dailies are found upon
the exchange table every morning
in the year. The daily ghist of
news carefully gathered in each Of
the leading towns in the territory
is presented in an entertaining and
up-to-date style. These little dali
lies are the pioneersin a field of
boundless possibility, and are
the advance agents of future
that no man can estimate. The
towns where these harbingers of a
bigger, broader and better civiliza-
tion have sprung up, should be
proud of their existence and foster
them with liberal hand, and en-
courage them when it is possible.
These pioneer dailies are a con-
slant reflex ofthe commercial, edu-
cational, moral and religious pro-
gress Of the cities where they are
published and Of the territory at
large. There isn't church nor a
school, nor business enterprise
IN the country that is not directly
benefited BY their existence.
