TWO KITCHENER STORIES.

What Lord Kitchener is doing may
be best summed up in two stories that
are going the rounds in regard to him.
1t is said that he was asked the other
day whether he did not propose to re-
organize the transport. His reply was
No; ! am going to organize It," The
other story is that he paid surprise

for they are liable to be called out at

ETIQUETTE OF THE DANCE.
Customs Which Polite Society APP
proves as Good Form and Correct.

When a man is presented to a
young woman at dance he usually
says almost at once, May | have the
pleasure of this dance?"
After dancing and walking about
the rooms two or three times the
young man may take the girl back to
her chaperon and plead another en-
gagement-or better, she suggests
that he take her to her place near her
mother or chaperon.
The lady is the one to first intimate
her desire to stop dancing.
If a man holds girl too tightly she
should drop her hand from his shoul-
der, SO as to bring it between her
partner and herself If he does not
take the hint let her stop dancing at
once under some pretext so evident
that he may realize her displeasure or
disapproval.
A chaperon should not be lacking in
personal dignity; nor should she
dance while her charge is unprovided
with partner.
A girl should be attentive to her
mother or her chaperon, presenting
her friends to her and occasionally
stopping to say a few words.
Both young men and maidens should
be careful to remember that their
dancing engagements must be kept.
girl must not refuse to dance with
one man under some pretext, and
then dance with another; neither
should she dance with the same man
more than two or three times
A young man invited to a house
should dance as early as possible with
the daughters of his hostess, and pay
them every possible attention.

very seldom seen away from the Island
OF Molokai
One night Whey lifted hot lamp
glass in his home, where he was en-
tertaining a friend, The glass was so
hot that smoke rose from his scorched
fingers and the friend uttered an ex-
clamation of horror, but Whey showed
no signs Of having felt the pain. He
saw the smoke. 1t was a grim confir-
nation Of his worst suspicious. The
thickening skin that comes with the
first advance of leprosy could not have
been shown in a more startling man
ner
After that night Whey Stunned his
friends. He was seen walking along
the waterfront of San Francisco with
his hat over his eyes buried in
thought He avoided speaking to any
one Whey was contemplating tht
step he finally took of placing him
self under the guards that hem in the
thousand or more lepers of Molokai,
Il was terrible step to consider. In
all the world there IS probably no
more horrible place to live than in 4
ltper settlement, where among a
thousand companions there is not one
with the hope that belongs to the aver
age man.
Many have committed suicide rather
than so to Molokai. Others have
risked death to escape from there. In
the wilds of Hawaii there is a canyon
in which live a few lepers who guard
the approach to their resort with guns,
lest they be arrested and moved to the
settlement. They are not molested as
they are harmless to the world, and
may as we'll be allowed to live out
their wretched existence in the spot
| they have chosen.
| 1t was 10 Molokai that Whey finally
decided to go, He returned to Homo
| lulu, surrendered himself and was
taken to the settlement. But for its
horrible population, Kaanapali, the
Molokai leper settlement is one Of the
most lovely spots in the world. Its
climate is unsurpassed, its scenery
grand. But these beauties are lost in
contemplation Of the horror Of the
place.
The lepers live and love, marry and
raise children like human beings In
the outside world. They even have
their entertainments and their indus
tries, but the pail is never absent.
Whey built home there and with
the courage OF man who refuses to
yield to anything but death itself, he
took up again his occupation of con-
tractor.
He is at Molokai yet. He has a
home, with servants, lepers all, but Is
still property owner in Honolulu. He
will never see any Of his relatives or
! former friends again.
