DESKS WITH HIDING PLACES.
Demnnd for Secret Compartments and
Draw In the Lat Year


Draw In the Lat Year.
a desk manufacturer says that in the
last year he has received more orders
for desks with hidden springs and Sc
cret compartments than in the ten
preceding years put together. Some OF
them have intricate mechanism, and
by pushing secret buttons the walls
are made to fly open and narrow crew
ices revealed. AS to the cause for this
new demand for hidden uOOks and
crannies in desks he is able to give
no satisfactory explanation. 1t would
seem, however, that the man OF affairs
finds himself the possessor Of secrets
so grave that not even the stenographer
is allowed to share them and that the
common rOll-top desk Is forced to give
way to the Intricate, many pauelled
contrivanCe which alone is able to hide
important papers from the prying eyes
Of clerks and office boys. Accepting
this theory as plausible" said the
manufacturer. ut would logically fol-
low that women are burdened with
more than their share OF secrets for
fully two-thirds OF these combination
desks are intended for female custom
ers. Why they are going TO take the
pains OF locking up discriminating doc
uments while their tongues are gtlll at
liberty Is another puzzle. but then the
fad savors OF the mysterious all the
way through and the feminine phase
OF the situation is in keeping with the
rest Of the circumstances. New York

That is an awful lie the Paris
Appeal tells on "A young lady over
at Santa Fe going TO a drug store
and asking how to take dose of
castor oil without tasting it. The
druggist treated her to a glass of
lemonade and when she had swal-
lowed it he disinterestedly told her
that that was one way to take oil
without tasting it. "Heavens!"
she exclaimed, "Did you put it
in that stuff" He told her he
had. "Oh, Lord! ] wanted it for
my mother" she groaned as she
began to sprint for home. The
druggist is still hiding out.

and the infantry were left far behind.

treated down Seventh street, as we
