The Syrians of New York have found
a Joan of Arc who is going to lead them
to victory over the Turk. She is small,
fragile, winsome, wears polka dot
stockings and curls her hair. From all
the photographs that have appeared Of
her in the Sunday papers it is very sure
that the Turk will pack his gripsack
and evacuate as soon as she starts for
the Bosporus. The lost cause of freedom
in the orient now takes on new life be-
cause the indomitable spirit of naivete
and righteousness is at the front. All
that was needed was prettiness and
sweetness to seal the doom of the great
assassin. Some of Joan Of Arcs proc
lamations printed in the Sunday papers
read like "Alice In Wonderland, but
there is no telling what the indomitable
girlishness of our age will accomplish
when it gets it's high heel clippers on.

bangles made Of military buttons, while
she had nothing of the sort.
One day Miss Powers concluded that
she would write to Admiral Dewey him
self and ask for button. She did and
Enclosed one Of her photographs. About
that time the fighting admiral was re-
ceiving great many more letters than
he could answer, but the sweet and
beautiful face which looked out at him
from the inclosed photograph won his
heart at once. He promptly cut off a
big button from his uniform and sent it
to Miss Powers along with little note.
Later he sent her one Of his photographs
with his autograph on it.
OF course Miss Powers was delighted.
That button she holds as the choicest OF
her treasures. She has long gold chain
fastened to it and wears it constantly.
She no longer envies the buttons of the
other girls, for she has what she regards
as the finest relic Of the war owned in
all Illinois.

Mr.. William Archer, the eminent
English critic, does not think much of
the Wanted American express system.
When he started from New York to
Chicago, he could not bring himself to
forego the British custom Of taking his
bathtub. hatbox, umbrella, extra
goloshes, macintosh, trunks, dressing
case and portmanteau on the top Of a
cab to the railroad station and then
getting out at every stopping place be-
tween New York and Chicago and in
terviewing the baggage masters to see
that his traps were all right. To settle
down in his Pullman section and feel
that these traps would arrive at his
Chicago hotel without any further
worry on his part struck him as base
concession to Yankee ingenuity:

Contemporary Taffy.

Attention is called to the curious
tendency Of modern literature to rehab-.
ilitate some old miscreants. It was not
long ago that we had very learned
book by somebody written to prove that
Nero had been very much maligned,
and was, In fact, an angel of mercy.
Not long after another book made its
appearance, which proved conclusively
that Catherine II of Russia was vestal
and had suffered very much from liter
airy gossip. Then Ouida wrote charm
ing defense of Shelley's private life, and
made the astounding assertion that a
man of his genius had perfect right
to do as he pleased in morals. If one
were to get his impressions from cur
rent literature, Caligula and Torque-
mazda would begin to shine with new
luster, and Tamerlane would take his
place among the meek and lowly. just
now there is a strong inclination in
English literature to reha bilitate Robes
pierre. A life of that worthy is threat
ened which will show that he deserves
to rank with Washington in purity Of
purpose. It is worth noting that the
women authors offer the only excep-
tions TO this copdoning process. Mrs.
Stowe raked down Byron with steel
comb. Another woman has stripped the
Empress Josephine of every virtue and
shown her to be an exceedingly disrep-
utable person. Mr.. William L. Alden,
who writes from London, suggests thu
there should be literary process Of
canonization similar to that employed
in the Romish church, and that in con-
structing saints there should be come
definite method employed.

A PalDable FallacY.

"How can the pen be mightier than
the sword" cried the poet desperately,
''when yonder sword swallower makes
more money than do?'
Now the fallacy Of this was apparent.
The pen was still mightier than the
sword. The condition deplored by the
poet was due simply to his own foolish
notion that swallowing pens in a curio
hall wouldn't be art.
Doubtless the logical grasp of his mind
was somewhat affected by his not hav-
ing had anything to eat for week or
ten days.-Detroit Journal.
