STORY OF A HAT.

There is such a thing as being too care
full, even at such an important time as
moving day. Every housekeeper knows
that migration from one house to another
is demoraliZing affair in many ways,
only death in the family or fire causing
more strain on the nerve system. A few
days ago a methodical houSekeeper WAS
called upon to face this trial. For weeks
in advance she had planned just how
everything was to be packed, and on the
evening before the furniture vans were to
arrive her plan of operations had been
carried out to the letter.
Tired, but satisfied with her efforts
she retired and slept soundly, and after
breakfast superintendent the loading of
her household goods until the last stick
had been safely deposited in the vans
which at once drove away. Then she
went mechanically to closet where her
hats had been kept, but discovered that
in her anxiety that nothing should be
overlooked she had packed all her head
gear in trunk, which by that time was
several blocks distant on the way to her
new home Hats half mile away are of
no more use than are battleShipS twenty
miles from the scene of action, and the
poor, tired heroine of this story felt that
the only thing left for her to do under the
circumstances was to sit down on con-
venient window sill and weep.
She didn't, however; she went to the
family in the block that she knew best
and borrowed an unpretentious chapeau
Then she went on downtown in car
mentally assuring herself that she was
the biggest goose and the most thorough
packer of trunks that ever lived.

DAINTINEss OF SPEECH.


''Why is it." said a man the other day,
that girls who are exquisitely neat and
dainty in their personal habits and be-
longings are often so slovenly in speech :?
In car recently l listened to college
girls talking. They were fresh, attract
ive-looking girls, with the whitest OF
teeth, carefully kept hair, and that gem
eral look of beautiful neatness that ac-
cords with our modern idea of the we'll
dressed woman. But their speech betray-
ed that this nicely stopped with their
physical well-being. Their slovenly use
of their mother tongue amounted almost,
to my ears, to bodily untidness. Syllables
were slurred over or left out altogether,
consonants that demanded a full breath
were unSounded-eyery indignity indeed,
of neglect and mutilation heaped upon
the words that poured fluentfy enough
indeed, from their lips. Their voices, 100,
were poorly modulated, the tones of one
fiat and expressionless, while the other
had a harsh, strident speech / wonder
what those girls would have thought if
/ had leaned across the car to them and
asked: What perverted sense of effect
teaches you girls to emphasize and en-
bellish every physical good point that you
possess, and fail to crown all with the
Incompatible gift. which is quite as we'll
within your reach, of pleasing. voice
and clean-cut, intelligent speech. ''-Har-

THE CAT AND THE TRAVELLERS.

he didn't he should have said it, for it is
undoubtedly a truth that was worthy the
observation of any one of them. 10
traveller whose course took him by way
OF the Christopher Street ferryhouse of
the Delaware and Lackawanna railroad,
an opportunity to prove its wisdom was
vouchsafed by large, grave looking cat
with a notified coat.
1t was remarkable to him the number
of ways various people who entered the
ferryhouse had of showing attention to
the cat In very short time The trav-
eler grew so facile in character reading
that he almost knew beforehand what
each person was going to do as he ap-
preached the animal. The cat seemed TO
know, tos for when tall, black-mus-
tached man came along she dropped her
tail and started with a rush for cor
ner, not, however, in time to escape
poke in the ribs with large cane. Still
another jaunty, kind-faced gentleman,
with q sIarge leather hatbox and a dress
suit case, and absently tearing a letter
into bits, came along. Pussy looked
into the kind face with confiding purr
He was young and looked so gentle. He
looked down at her with an answering
smile, beautiful to see, and the traveller
decided that he must be a charming per-
son indeed, when, straight into kitty's
upturned face, into the wide mild eyes,
came the handful Of bits of paper, STRAIT
ling her and sending her with distended
tail to the other end of the ROOM The
kind, good gentleman laughed happy,
ringing laugh, and the traveller In the
corner marveled at how deceptive appear
ances sometimes are.

by Harry E. George, tenor; and MISS

Mr.. Krieger's playing last night more
than merited the cordial reception he re-
ceiyed. His work is entirely devoid of
affectation. 1t is thorough, sincere and
musicianly in the highest degree The
programme he presented last night was
not mere exhibition in finger gymnaS-

played, but finely interpreted as well. The

One woman.s occuna,;on

New York has what is known as a
funeral stenographer" in the person of
a young woman skilled in the art of
shorthand writing. She attends the obse-
qu1es of people of prominence and wealth
and jots down in her note book all the
complimentary things the preacher says
about the deceased. If mourning rela-
tlves desires she transcribes these notes
and arranges them in book form, or en-
crosses them upon parchment for which
she receives adequate and sometimes
exceedingly liberal compensation OF
course the prayers are all about alike.
and do not require preservation but in
his sermon the preacher is apt to say
some pretty fine things and it is the de-
sire of many, up-to-date families to keep
record of them. In no way other than
by the employment of stenographer can
this record be secured, for, as a rule,
1uneral sermons are eXtemporaneouS
speeches. The average minister has not
the time to write them out beforehand
and commit them to memory, and it is
bad form to read an obituary discourse,
obviously there is nothing for it but to
call in the stenographer. Hence the

But what was really the most interest,"
ing of all was a rather rough-looking
man, dressed in overalls, and bearing the
marks of hard work on his clothes and
hard usage in his face He stopped before
the cat and looked down at her. Being
well-bred cat, accustomed to the atten-
lions of select travellers, she turned her
back upon him and sauntered off. But,
undaunted, he followed, knelt and ten
derby lifting her, held her in his arms.
The unusual caress, the gentleness of the
mans touch, the rough Kindness of his
look all treasured kitty. She stretched
out her head, closed her eyes and was
just doing into a pleasant nap in the
arms of her rough admirer, when sud-
denly the ferryboatss shrill whistle
sounded, the bells changed, the gates
closed, and the traveller in the corner
was suddenly aroused by seeing the cat
thrown head foremost from the mans
arms, land on her feet, arch her back
and fly for rescue behind a bench. He
came to the gate just too late.
Darn the BEAST he muttered, I've
missed my ferry. The beast meanwhile
looked at him from her retreat, more in
sorrow than in anger, as one who might
say: II should have known better than
to be so deceived; I'll stick to the gentry
after this."-N. Y. Times.

STATISTICS OF SUICIDE.

The mania for self-destruction is on
the increase.
Life certainly presents, in most coun-
tries, many more agreeable features than
1t did a generation ago. Yet the desire
to abandon it increases yearly. The total
number of suicides is swelling enormous
Y. Is it because of the greater prevail
ence of nervous diseases?
An English alienist, DR.. Styles, has
been at some pains to investigate this
subject, with wholly discouraging re-
suits The story of his discoveries may
best be expressed in figures.
Some forty years ago the average num-
Der of suicides was, in Sweden, one TO
every $4,000 inhabitants; in Russia, one
to every $4,000 inhabitants; in the United
States, one to every 1900 inhabitants,
and in great cities, like London and st.
Petersburg, one to every N,O0O lnhabi-
tants. 1t is plain that We made dismal
showing eN en- then.
In France, chosen for illustration be-
cause it offers the most startling revela-
tions, DR.. Styles found for every 100000
inhabitants, during the years 18A to 1S45,
q suicides; from 1916 to 1885, 10 suicides;
from 1861 to 1870 10 suicides; from ISL

THEODORE RoosEvELT's MOTHER.

A current story makes 1t an easy mat
ter to believe the stories of Theodore
Roosevelt's GOODNESS in the presence of
danger. Judging from the story in ques-
ton the president inherits at least a
portion of this GOODNESS from his mother.
She and cousin, Mrs S. A. Clark, We're
at one time being driven in a closed car
rage from the Roosevelt residence to an
unmanageable, and finally the coachman
was thrown from his seat to the ground.
The thoroughly frightened team tore
madly from street to street Men re-
peatedly rushed out to stop them, but
their attempts only served to increase the
trouble, and the carriage lurched from
side to side, running on two wheels part
of the time. The horses kept on in the
direction of the stables, the occupants
fully expecting at every corner to be
dashed to death.
During this most trying ordeal Mrs
Roosevelt sat calm as a statue, looking
neither to the right nor to the left, and
saying not a word. Dashing into the
open stable, they crashed against the op-
posite wall, breaking the carriage pole,
and fatally 1njuring one of them
A score of men came to the rescue.
Someone opened the door, and a half
dozen asked if they were hurt Mrs.
Roosevelt stepped quietly out and after
her fainting companion had been car
ried away, turned to stableman and
said in her ordinary tone:
"Will you hand me my card case.
James? I dropped it in the carriage.
Thanks and she walked calmly away.
