Ideas Make slaves,

Most people suffer at one time or an
other from some idea that takes pos
session Of the mind and will not be
driven away,
People, for instance. who amuSs
themselves by competing for missing
letter or miSprint prizes get SO that
they can think of scarcely anything
else. 4 well-known philanthroptc lady,
having been taught in her youth the
prudence of counting five before say
ing anything angry, is the victim OF
the counting idea, and she cannot dc
the simplest action without first count
ing five Before winding her watch,
opening door, looking in shop WIN
dow, putting on her hat, or even turn
Ing in bed. she has to count the ac-
customed number.
Or Johnson, as every one knows.
had n habit of touching certain stones.
posts. etc. on his walks, and so I'M
perative was the idea that if he ever
missed the performance he would re-
turn to carry it through.
Sometimes the idea grows so over
towering as to drive the wretched we
tim into the lunatic asylum. a gentle
man thus put away for life owes his
fate to the fact that in conversation
one day he could not recall the name
of man he met in India. When ha
went home he sat down to think il
out; all night he thought and thought
without success. At business next day
be could do nothing but strive to re-.
member the name. DAYS ana weeks
passed. and still he was at IT, Finally
he neglected everything in obedience
to this idea, and in Il short time ht
was absolutely mad.

American Women Walkers.

II was claimed a few years ago THAI
American woman are surely getting to
have big feet and now attention is
again called to the fact by some one
Who has made a close study of the
matter. and who finds reason for con
graduation In the fact II is said that
the American womau'S foot has grown
perceptibly within a very few years
The woman who wears a No, 3 shoe
is considered to have a small foot.
while the average woman wears a No.
., but in the last generation women
who wore twos and even ones were
not uncommon
But women walk more than they
used to, and are great deal more
comfortable and healthy as a result.

women are less vain, hut that their

observation-disclosures Has No
Terrors For Her Now.

Most of the New York women who
nursing there heard the story of the
kind hearted helper who thought that
the surgeon was cruel to deprive the
fever convalescent of food, and gave
him gingerbread and peaches when the
doctors back was turned, with the
excuse that the poor fellow was hun
cry and ought to be fed. But that was
in the early days Of the camp when the
women who volunteered there had not
begun the work which they atterwar6
did so effectively The soldier who go.
these refreshments did not again trou-
Bile the surgeon, and the story was told
by all those who came in contact with
this particular doctor, until 1t became
the property of every person who came
TO the camp with any idea of working
there Even the volunteer nurses
came 10 tell H. themselves as a ueaa-
OF showing the contrast between Their
subsequent efficiency and the unregu-
lated kindness that prompted the early
workers. The effects Of the nursing
there on some Of the volunteers have
already begun TO be noticed, and the
most remarkable of these has been OBJ
served in the case of woman who
took leading part in all the work
done there. She had hitherto been an
enthusiastic champion of the tricycle.,
regarding the bicycle as too hazardous
vehicle for her to attempt. At Camp
Wikofr she was compelled to ride
horseback in order to get from one
part Of Montauk Point to another in
directing the work of which she was
in practical charge To the astonish-
ment of her friends she purchased a
broncho the other day and announced
that her days as a tricycliSt were over.
In the future no less exciting means OF
progress than a broncho would satisfy
her tastes. y Y. sun

SPECIAL LEGISLATION.
Milwaukee Sentinel.

MILWAUKEE, Sentlnel.
There is one brand Of legislation
the enactment of which is a constant
danger to be guarded against by the
members of the egislature-specia
legislation Bills are introduced at
every session for the purpose Of con-
ferring benefits on some individual,
though their terms are general
These bills may and often do apply
to meritorious cases, yet their enact
ment would be contrary to good pub
lie policy because they would be
sure to deprive some people of their
just rights while possibly correcting
an injustice in particular case.
These bills are often so well managed
in the legislature that their nature is
not recognized by the average mem
Der. The bill relating to the adop-
ton Of children which failed of pass
age in the assembly last Wednesday
is case in point. TWAS not thought
that this bill was introduced in the
interest Of any individual, but it
came out in the course of the debate
that it was intended to reach spec
ial case. This statement undoubt
eddy caused the defeat of the bill,
which would otherwise have been
passed.
'f'ile FACT that TINS 6tii was recom-
mended for passage by the Judiciary
committee of the assembly and had
a favorable prospect of passage up to
the last moment of the debate shows
how necessary it Is to exercise the
most watchful care to prevent one of
these measures from slipping
through. 1t was probably not one of
the worst of the special legislation
bills before the Legislature either.
These are the measures that thrive
on obscurity aud are always earthly
nursed by one or more lobbyists at
Madison. If the members of the leg
islature examine all bills that can
possibly he intended to help some
individual at the expense of others
it is not likely, however, that any of
them can escape detection. It is
| highly important for the public in
tcrests that vigilaut lookout be
kept for all suspicious measures of
| this character.

FRIENDSHIP NO. 8

There. was a hot time last night. on
Woods Hall alleys when the second meet
ing in the two men tournament was held.
The place was crowded with rooters and
there was a big gathering of Mantle
Wheeirnen to root for that strong COM
bination tina consists of Andrew Wright
and John Gray. The visitors from the
upper section of the city combined with
the Niantics and the noise was great. 1t
just shows how much healthy interest
such an event gives to a game. While the
rooters did their utmost to encourage
their utmost to please their admirers and
the result was good, though not surpris-
ing.
The first series brought Perlmutter and
Selnow out against Bucktenkirk and
the good old reliable Duh who did
such g5od work last year, but has been
heard little this season. The first game
was an excellent one and saw the former
pair in excellent form, while Buektenkirk
was. off, and Duke showed his well known
ability. Bucktenkirk lost the game, while
his partner got I'll. Perlmutter and Sell
now got the game by IL pins. h former
was high with 1911. The second game won
the series for Perlmutter and Selnow, and
they won the game by q pins. Perlmut-
ter was again in the van with 1879.
The second series saw Wright and Gray
opposed to Bucktenkirk and Duke, and it
was very warm. Wright's 207 and Gray's
good score won the first game by "a pins.
The second game saw Duke with 1870 and
he and his partner won this game by I
pins and the crowd was in an uproar. This
necessitated another game and the excite
ment was great. The winner was Wright
and Gray and their majority was 30 pins.
Wright was worth all the confidence his
friends placed in him and got 2Sl, when
other men would be shaking. rms won
the series.
Perlmutter and Selnow then went up
against Wright and Gray and were
d0wneda in the first two games SO that
they lost the series. Perlmntter was IN
very hard luck and his second game saw
the worst game Joe has been known to
roll. The scores:-
