Very early on the following mornIn.

1t was addressed. in Miss ThOrpe's

words:

WHAT THE CHARACTERS MEAN

Cabalistic Marks ON the Inside Of
Shoes Have q Meaning.
"People often ask me the meaning of
the apparently crazy hierOglyphs and
figures that are stamped on the inner
side of the uppers of ready-made shoes
nowadays" said shoe dealer the other
day. las every shoe manufactOry has
secret stamp code of its own, and
there is, therefore, no possibility of the
general public learning more than that
such codes exist. l may as well tell you
that the vanity of customers
say. of women customers particularly
is at the bottom of these queer stamp
ed characters and figures. You'd be
surprised know. for instance. how
many women there are who Imagine
that they wear No. 3 shoe. when in
reality the size is couple Of figures
larger. A shoe salesman who under
stands his business can tell precisely
the number of the shoe woman Gus
toner wears at a glance. But. as often
as not, a woman whose foot is No. >
calls for couple Of sizes smaller, and
the mysterious stamped hierOglyph
scheme was devised for the purpose of
encouraging her in the belief that her
foot is couple Of sizes smaller than
it really measures in shoe leather.
When a woman calls for a No. 3 to
fit No. foot no salesman Of this pc
riod who cares for his job is going to
tell her that she requires a No. ). He
simply brings out a shoe of the style
she wants that he feels confident will
fit her comfortably and lets it 60 at
that. A woman rarely thinks to in
Quire If the shoe is really of the size
she asked for. for she takes 1t for
granted that the salesman has given
her what she requested. But when a
woman does ask that question it Is the
salesman's business to unblushingly re-
ply in the affirmative-and don't
think these little necessary white lies
are stored up against men In business
The woman customer might examine
the hieroglyphs inside the uppers for
II week with a double-refecting tele-
scope without finding out differently.
and. even II she had the key to the
puzzle. 1t would only make her feel
badly. so what would be the use? There
are tricks in all trades but ours."-Chi-
cago Chronicle.

A True story At.ut !. B,bl..


There was little boy who wanted a
Bible very much indeed-wanted 1t
more than anything else he could think
Of. But he was a poor boy. and could
not afford to buy one; for he lived a
good many years ago when Bibles cost
more than they do now.
One day two strange gentlemen came
o his house and asked his mother for
something to eat. Although she had
only plain food. she gave them a well
come to what she had. As they ate
they saw that the little boy looked sad
They asked him what he wanted. and
he told them a Bible. His mother said. .
Never mind. Don't fret about that
I'll take you to see Gen. Washington
next week"
But I'd rather have a Bible than 60
TO see Gen. Washington" the boy said.
One of the gentlemen seemed much
pleased with this. and told him he
hoped he would always be as fond Of
the Bible
The next day the little boy received a
beautiful Bible, and on the ny-leaf was
written: From George Washington"
The little boy did not know 1t. but he
mad been talking to Gen. Washington
himself the day before.-Our Little
