Really Too Polite.

An American, who will never allow
woman to stand in a street car If he
has seat to offer her, met with disas-
ter in Hamburg lately, writes for
eign correspondent. He was not IA
miliar with street car rules in Ham
burg, and lost a, fare in consequence.
AS he stepped on the car and took the
only vacant seat at the rear end, the
conductor lowered sign that read
"Besetzt." He did not know that the
word meant occupied" nor under
stand it's Specification. At the next
corner the car stopped, one passenger
got off and two women got on. One
of the women took the vacant seat and
quick as thought our polite American
arose and offered his seat to the other
one, who accepted it. The conductor
came from the further end of the car,
explained to the polite man that the
vehicle was overcrowded, contrary to
law. and that as he was the one who
was standing he must alight- He did

Silk and wool mixtures will be fa,

Imitation overskirt effects are being
used on silk undersklrts, but the over
skirt as part of the costume is a

Persian and other Oriental embroid-

A chic arrangement for the neck Is
made of gold ribbon dotted with black
chenille. 1t passes twice around the
neck, through gold slide, and is
finished with a gold fringe.
A chou with two ribbon ends made

addition to the front of bodice. In
fact, note of gold seems essential.
Gold gauze will be useu extensively
for evening frocks this autumn.

Venetian cloth, in blues, pansy and

the true sportsman about him than
his rivals Just at the height of his
fame he was drafted into the army
and his year of service set him back
in his racing when he again appeared
on the track. He found that his
lightning sprint had vanished and for
a time he devoted himself to middle
distance racing with not much sue
cess. This year he again turned to
the sprints and that the effect of his
army life have worn away is shown
by his surprising win in the worlds
championship.
Several attempts were made to get
Jacquelin to cross the Atlantic and
race In America. That was when he
was in the heyday Of his fame and was
regarded as the real champion of
Europe. But the Frenchman had a
horror Of the water and although rich
purses We're offered he turned them
all down. He did consent to cross the
English channel once or twice, but
even this short voyage upset him.

FALSE TEETH,

What Becomes of the Myriads of Them
Made Every Year.
What becomes of the hundreds oil
thousands of artificial teeth made and
sold annually? Before attempting to
answer the question it may be as well
to consider how these artificial teeth
are made. When plates were discov-
cred and the expert dentist was able
TO supply a whole mouthful of new
teeth the teeth themselves were carved
out OF ivory. But constant grinding
would wear away the ivory, and these
elephant teeth were not satisfactory.
To-day all artificial teeth are made of
porcelain, and will outlast Methuse-
Ian. The porcelain material, which
contains various mineral proportions.
is worked up like sort of dough or
plaster, forced into molds and fused
py intense heat in a furnace. Each
tooth is covered with enamel, and has
one or more metal pins in the back
10 mold 1t to the plate. In large lots
these teeth can be made very cheaply,
Dut there is one item of expense that
cannot be overcome, and that is the
cost OF the metal holding pin. The
only metal which will stand the in
tense heat of the porcelain furnace is
platinum, and that costs at the rate
Oh cent pin simply for the raw
material. But as there are people who
are not satisfied with ready-made
clothing, so there are people who are
not satisfied with ready-made teeth.
raise teeth may look just as well or
better than real ones, but public speak,
ers, singers and other prominent peo-
pie want their own teeth reproduced
IN all their peculiarities of form and
color, and filings. if they have them.
In teeth that are made to order moth
ing is impossible, from the short
white teeth of normal youth to the
long, discolored ones of extreme age
And now for the answer to the oues-
ton, What becomes of false teeth ?"
Sometimes they are lost, sometimes
stolen and sometimes left as a family
legacy. Generally, however, they are
buried with the owner and lie forever
hidden in the ground.-Cincinnati En-

Tho Color of Bin ds.

The remarkable and widely varying
properties of the elementary colors
which compose white light suggest
that the employment of screens as
In the blinds placed over our windows
should be founded on a scientific basis.
Our knowledge of the properties Of
each individual section of the spec
trum is not exact, but this
much we do know, that the rays of
least refrangibility. the red rays, are
without direct chemical effects, they
occur at the heat end of the spectrum.
On the other hand, the rays of the
highest refrangibility contain the vio-
let rays which chemically are exceed
ingly active. 1t is these rays which
are concerned in photography and
doubtless also in the great process of
vegetable nutrition and growth. The
object of blinds Is, of course, twofold-
to keep room cool and to screen out
some of the light, so as to avoid the
bleaching of coloring materials of the
carpets and furniture. At the same
time sufficient light must be admit
ted so that the occupant may see with
out difficulty. What then is the best
color for this purpose? Since light ex
erts the peculiar action due to the ac-
tinic rays which materially and whole
somely affect the air of a dwelling
room care should obviously be taken
not to exclude all the rays that are so
concerned. Thus ruby or orange-red
material would be contraindicated.
Abundance of light is inimical to the
life of micro o-organisms, so that ma
terial in some shape of a compromise
should be selected. The best for this
purpose is probably a delicataely ocher-
colored fabric. This would screen part
of the active light rays, and If Of
fair thickness the greater part Of the
heat rays, while admitting sufficient
active rays to allow of n wholesome
effect upon the room and its surround
ings. Venetian blinds do not allow
of the graduation, which is desirable
with cloth fabric. AS it is we'll known,
exclusively red light has been used as
therapeutic agent, and apparently
with encouraging results, in measles.-

ENGLISH DOCTOR'S FEES.

Fortunes Have Been Amassed.
Perhaps the physicians of England
receive larger fees than their brother
practitioners in other countries of the
world The greatest medical feature
Of the century, as might have been ex-
pected. has fallen to the lot of Sir
William Jenner, who died short time
ago at the ripe old age of SO years. Sir
william, who was always liberal in his
expenditure and his charities, left a
personal estate of the value of $685.
300. In his palmiest days Sir William
more than once made $4,000 by
single weeks work, although natur-
ally his average earnings were much
below this amount. He himself, how
ever, estimated his aggregate profess
sional income for the last 80 years
Of his active life at over half mil
lion pounds sterling, and yet this king
of doctors has been known to trave)
10 distant suburb and take a two
Eninea fee with a smile and Than,
you" Some of the largest recorded
medical fees, however, fall to his lot,
and he is said to have received f20,-
900 for his attendance on the late
prince consort and the Prince of Wales
during their two serious. and in one
case fatal, illnesses, Sir William
Gull, who had nine years less of life,
amassed G344,023, the second medical
fortune of the century; Sir Andrew
Clark, with a still shorter life. accu-
some of the medical men who have
reapted the largest harvests have been
proprietors Of private asylums. DR..
Paul, proprietor of the Camberwell
House Private Asylum, amassed over
8100 900, and DIR. William Wood, of
the Priory Private Asylum, Roehamp-
ton, left $4,000. Fifteen physicians
who have died quite recently left be-
hind them an aggregate fortune OF
e2,000,000, or the gratifying average
savings of f133,000. Sir Morell Mac
kenzie is said to have received G20,-
900 for attending Frederick the Noble.
but at his death left only f21953.
These fortunes become Ineligible
when We consider that fashionable
physician frequently earns from 100 to
200 guineas in a couple Of hours morn
ing consultations, and that there are
many days on which his fees amount
to 300 guineas or more. An ordinary
fee for attending patient at dis
tance Of 200 miles from town would be
250 guineas, and for an operation at
this distance fashionable surgeon
would get considerably more.-Utica

BEAUTIFUL FEET RARE.
Present-Day Footwear Distorts the EI.
tremities Abominably.


A man who denies that he is pre-
Judiced, but claims that he is a good
Judge Of feminine beauty, declares
that there is scarcely a beautiful foot
to be found among the women of to-
day. The high heels, the exaggerated
curve at the ball of the foot. the stiff
heel stays and the pointed toes, he de-
clares. have distorted the foot in a
painful and ugly slahner. The ankles
are misshapen. In some cases the
bones are enlarged until they bulgt
out so that every bone is perceptible.
The weight OF the body thrown upon
the toes has caused them to spread
out Crowded into pointed toes, they
stick up In clusters of knotty corns.
The foot should be as shapely as the
hand. Footwear should fit as a glove
1ts the hand. The perfect foot is
slender. with an arched instep and toes
that lie smoothly and easily. The first
step toward acquiring a pretty foot is
to wear shoes that fit it comfortably.
The next is to take exercises that will
render the toes strong and supple. Be-
gin by spreading out the toes to tha
utmost extent then hold four toes still
and attempt to move the remaining
one. Every toe should be straighteI
and shorter than the next one and the
arch should be shapeiJ and plant. The
feminine foot of today renders grace
full carriage an impossibility. And all
because Dame Fashion has detreed
that a short, high-heeled, pointed -tos
shoe is the correct thing in dressy
footgear, forgetting that there never
was a human foot built that way.

Cleaning Carpet on the Floor.

One of the newest discoveries Of
the housekeeper is that carpet may
be cleaned without going through the
trials of removing it from the floor.
All that she needs are piece of soap,
basin of warm water, wet towel
and q dry towel. First, one strip Of
the carpet must be rubbed down with
the wet towel. Then it must be rubbed
with the dry cake of soap, after which
follows scrubbing with wet cloth
until foamy lather is produced. Wipe
this away with the wet towel, going
over it many times till the soap is all
wiped away, then finish by thorough
course Of treatment with the dry tow
ell Taking the carpet strip by strip,
go over the entire surface until it is
clean.

NOT FANATICS.
Mistaken Notions About Cause Of Chinese
Disturbances,

Mistaken Notions About Cause Of Chinese
Disturbances,
1t is mistaken notion that the at
tacks upon the foreigners by the Chi
nese are inspired by religious fanati-
cism. Indeed, there is nothing In the
three religions of China to arouse
fanatical emotion. 1t might be said
further that the religions of China are
less religion and more philosophy.
Confucianism is philosophy, with
religion as an incidental. The Budd
hism of China lost in Its translation
from India its intense religious fer
vor, and converted its poetry into a
cold and unfeeling idolatry. Lao Tao
ism is about equal parts of religion
and philosophy, the religious part
corresponding to western spiritual
ism; the philosophy is that founded
and exploited by Loa-tsze, who was
born in the fourth century before the
Christian era. There Is nothing, as
said above, in any of these religio-
PHILOSOPHERS to impel the greater por-
tion of 4OO,000,000 people to commit
the brutal excesses recently recounted
by the cables from China.
