"People wond find less difficulty
with ready made shoes" said the ex-
perienced salesman, "if they would
stand up to fit them on instead Of sit
ting down. Nine persons out Of ten,
particularly women, want a comfort-
able chair while they are fitting o
shoe, and il is with the greatest diff
fcul.y you can get them to stand for
a few minutes even after the shoe is
fitted. Then, when they begin walk
ing about, they wonder why the shoes
are not so comfortable as they were
at first trial. A woman's foot is con-
siderably smaller when she sits in q
chair than when she walks about. Ex-
ercise brings larger quantity OF
blood into the feet, and they swell APP
preciably. The muscles also require
certain space. In buying shoes this
fact should be borne in mind.

Ex-ArroRNEr-GENERAL MILLER rails

es a very interesting question. He
points out that only last March the
Supreme Court decided that any child
born within United States territory
even though both its parents be Chi
nese-is an American citizen and can
not be excluded from his rights as
such. Judge Miller suggests that IL
we make United States territory out OF
the Philippines, by any form of an
nexation, we shall make American
citizens of everybody born there. The
outlook for an influx of .'cheap labor
after annexation seems interesting to
say the least.-Post Dispatch.

Prehistoric Mans ravorI.. Food.

What was the favorite food of pre-. historic man? According to Dr. Ma tiegka, of Prague, it was bis brother. He proves from an examination of some prehistoric remains at Knovizc. In Bohemia, that the people who bur- led them were cannibals, not from need, but from choice, and that they preferred the flesh of their own rela- tiyes, especially if young aud tender, to that of their enemies. He also con ends, and most anthropologists seem agree with him, that the eating of
 uman flesh in prehistoric times bread all over Europe, tha practice
 efng first induced by scarcity of other food, next by preference. and was fin ally persisted in for religious. CT, rath- er,- ceremonial reasons. TGe flesh was n every case prepared by cooking sometimes with the juice of oranges and lemons

 Imitation Jewels.

A leading pfima donna wears in one role beautiful parure of diamonds, and she mortified another singer in the company by telling her that they were French limitations that had not cost one-fifth what they seemed to have cost. The other woman was distressed because all of hers were real and the thought of the money invested ln them was too much for her. lmlta- ton jewels have come to be so finely made that detection is almost impos- sble Even for ordinary wear they are accounted beautiful and it is only the knowledge, of their falsity which makes them unpopular. For every or dinary purpose they are as Useful as the genuine pieces. The last jewels to be initiated with wonderful success are rubies, and they happen to be fashionable stone just now. The man. ufactory which has these imitation rubies on the market is situated in London, and it has already been said there that the price of real rubies will certainly fall in consequence of the discovery of these wonderful imita- tions. The profits of the company; making the rubies are said to be $1S5,- GOO year. Sapphires are also manu- factured, but they are not considered so successful as the other stones Ar tificial rubies weighing fo"ty carats can be produced, but are not, as there would be no sale for stones of that size. An authority has said that there
 is no way knoVsa to him ny which these stones can be told from the gen. uine ones. The stones, although made in England, and in some instances cut by well-known jewellers, are sold only on the Continent. There are several companies manufacturing them, al though the best are the product of one firm. A London jeweler questioned as to the possible results of these good and cheap limitations said that the stones impossible to initiate might be- | come the most valuable and the most fashionable eventually.

The oldest clocks of American man ufacture were made by Gideon Rob- erts, of Bristol, Conn. According to the best authorities, no clocks were manufactured in what. afe now tie United States prior to 1900, at which time MT. Roberts first placed his time pieces on the market. His clocks were made with the greatest care, and much time was spent in perfeeting them. They were all of the style com monly known as 'hall" clocks, about six feet in height, handsomely fin ished and recognized separate piece of furniture in which the owner al- ways took great pride.

FROM THE BRHDSHAWS
A Phoenix Boy at Crowned King When the Strike Was Disclosed.

T must say that this climate feels comfortable to a person" said Chestsr Lincoln yesterday, after a disag- ee- able trip through the Bradshaw noun tains. We started out on the trip about the 24th of last month and travelled as far as New River without incident, but our team then caus d us much trouble. They were mules of course and acted as meek as lambs until we had travelled an unconfort able distance from the city, when mule-like, they baked. Here marked the epoch of the trials and tIibu'a @ ions which were ours before we had com pleted our little journey.
 f'I was forced to come back to town and secure another team. At last we made our start and covered slowly the distance between here and Peck can yon, the temperature growing colder as we proceeded. The canyon is about 100 miles from Phoenix and the road leading to it is extremely rough for the most part. Entering the canyon which is in the EeighborhOcd Cf $ miles in length, we were enabled to proceed as far as Peck station without much difficulty but at this place we found that the road was covered with
