Don't you know you always hear ar
lists talking about atmosphere? They
have TO have it. They go abroad, not
so much to study as to get atmosphere,
and J thought perhaps it might be a
good thing to apply that principle and
get a little for the different things /
am doing. I first commenced to do my
hair up on the leaves of German

] had begun that it was practical
way of getting this atmosphere. and
/ am not sure but did get along bit
better with my German. But l finally
came to grief. and you would never
guess how. No, not with my German,
but with my hair One day was par
ticularly anxious to have my hair look
well, but in the morning when / took
out one of my curl papers the lock of
hair that was around 1T was perfectly
straight couldn't see how 1T was, be-
cause l had done my hair up all alike
and this was the only one that went
wrong. Now, never was superstitious.
though Of course I wouldn't do any
thing when there was a very bad omen.
But what do you think? The piece of
the calendar the straight lock was on
was for the thirteenth day of the
month, and there was a big figure IL
on 1t. I wouldn't have believed 1t If 1t

GRADUATED SUGAR CHEAPER.
Why the old-Fashioned Brown Va
rlety % Seldom Seen.

when / was running a boarding
house for gangs at work on new rail-
roads In the West a few years ago..
said the tall man, brown sugar cost
cents a pound when Iboughtit by the
hogshead, and graduated sugar cost
I2 cents a pound when purchased In
equally large amounts. Now, IL you
had 200 men to board, all of whom used
sugar in their coffee, what kind of SUI
gar would you buy?"
II suppose I'd make a mistake. but
as far as 1 know now, / would buy
brown sugar. for that would be the
cheapest" was the reply.
And that's where you've made a
mistake" said the tall man. "rll prove
IL TO you in a minute. When you go
home tonight. you take a teaspoon
and experiment with both kinds of SUI
gar. You'll see that with graduated su-
gar you can pick up only as much as
the bowl OF the spoon will hold. But
it's different with brown sugar. IL
you dig your spoon deep into it, when
you lift the spoon, you bring nearly
three spoonfuls of sugar along with Ii,
as II packs closely. That is what house
wives call 'heaping teaspoonful.' Now
the average railroader is used to put
ting three to four spoonfuls OF sugar
in his coffee and he never looks to see
whether they are heaping ones or not.
Therefore. the brown sugar is the more
expensive. / tried both ways, and 1
found that using granulated sugar
saved me over SIS a month over what
II cost to serve brown sugar. There's
even more difference now than then,
too. The big sugar concerns have beat
en- down the price of graduated sugar
until II costs but a penny pound more
than brown sugar. That's why you
see granuIated sugar in all the cheap
boarding houses to-day."-New York

They Are Athletes and Born Co.
quextes.


The Samoan girl Is not only an ath-
lete, she is a born coquette. From the
time she is ten years old. she begins to
make eyes from behind a be autifully
carved fan. She is without sincerity,
but romantic TO the extreme. Yet In
spite of her romantic nature the Sa-
moan girl when angered is match for
q Samoan warrior in activity and
strength. 1t has been said that the Sa-
moan women and girls are even harder
to deal with than the men, They are
absolutely without feeling. and are
cruel to their captives.
II a Samoan is fortunate she will
wear a necklace Of sharks teeth and
earrings made of some metal That is
her costume. The sharks teeth are
usually the present of the favored suit
or, and 1t often is the case that girl
hardly in her teens will have many
necklaces. The more sharks teeth a
girl possesses the more admirers she
has, and, therefore, the more is envied
by her less fortunate sisters. The Sa-
means are a great people for dancing.
and during holiday season dancing is
in order day and night. The girls take
TO dancing as naturally as they do
to swimming, and girl is taught to
swim before she is taught to walk.
They are graceful. and readily learn
any dance.
The Samoan girl has no choice OF
husbands. The marrige is always ar
ranged by her parents. and she accepts
the inevitable. However. marriage does
not prevent a woman from having adj

Threw Away Fifty Thousand Dollars.

There died in the City Hospital at
Philadelphia last week a woman, prac-
tically a pauper. who by inscribing a
few lines upon paper would have
been put in possession of $4,000.
For many years DIR. Isabel Mitchell
was physician of some prominence in
the Quaker City. While practicing her
profession she became interested in the
pure food movement. and spent much
of her time in perfecting a process for
the preservation OF meats and vegeta-
bles where ice was not obtainable. Her
experiments resulted In a formula
which was declared practically perfect
by chemists and physicians of Philadel-
phia and vicinity. 1t was preparation
which answered the purposes desired
and was at the same time harmless to
health, being the forcing of indicated
ozone into the articles to be preserved.
DR.. Mitchell received many offers for
her process. but none of the terms was
satisfactory to her, though one of them
was for $4,000. While working on her
food preservative, she neglected her
practice. and gradually lost it all.
From a comfortable home she went by
gradual changes to garnet, where
she was taken i'll with a lingering di-
sease. and finally removed to the hos
pital. She persistently refused to re-
veal her secret to the few friends who
had stood by her, and with her death
the formula is lost to science.
