Wears Small Shoes.

The twenty odd girls OF the big
Boston Lyric Opera Company are
noted far and wide for their excep-
tional beauty OF face and form.
They all have sbapely hands and
most OF them quite small feet. So
uniform do they run In this respect
that one of the otherwise fascinating
young ladies' was until recently look
ed upon with something OF disdain.
because her feet we're somewhat
larger-than her sister associates in
the big musical organization. But
she has proved to them that small
feet is mark only OF aristocracy
and do not usually mark superior
intelligence, for many women of
brilliant intellect have possessed
large feet. Nine. De Europe Stael,
the most brilliant woman of her day
hsd large, uugainly feet. The Ger
nous aud Scotch are credited with
having the largest feet ia Europe.
French women have short, thick
feet, aud their shoes are made to
rather increase this appearance.
English women walk great deal
and wear wide comfortable boots on
their long rambles. The Spanish
women have the smallest feet Of all
the European nations. AS most of
the shapely beauties OF the big Bos-
Ton Lyric Opera Compan come
from Boston, it would naturally be
expected that their feet would be
rather small. 1t wouldn't DO in pro-
per form for Boston girl to be
otherwise, don't cher know"

That's True.

No matter at all what may be-
fall, what disasters are flying
about, the newspaper man some
how will plan to get his paper out.
An earthquake shock may to
smithereens knock the printing
house, brick and plaster, yet the
paper is there with headline scare
and details of disaster.
Printers may strike and strive
as they like till the issue may
seem in doubt; forms may "pi'
and editors die, but the paper
will still come out. Accidents
dire may happen and fire devour
each press and frame, but if the
whole blame town itself burn
down the paper comes out the
same. There's only one way
when folks don't pay for their
paper it goes up the spout, for
there's nothing on earth save the
long green's dearth, keeps the pa
per from coming out! (From

unofficial offer to the War Office
