out the society and companiOnship al
together Of the opposite sex, supposing
she feels that society is good for her
and helpful? Surely there must be some
men in the world who, for right reasons,
elect to remain single. Why cannot
man capable Il say capable because
very few men are probably capable Of
such an afection) Of platonic friendship
enjoy a comradeship with an unmarried
woman? Even If the chances are that
the friendship will not remain platonic,
why could 1t not be broken off?'
There is no reason, human or divine,
why a woman who is single should not
enjoy the comradeship of a man who is
single, ii both desire such an associa-
ton.
Whether that comradeship will remain
"platonic" even in seeming, and even
when both, for whatever excellent rea-
sons, have decided to be single for life,
time only can decide.
The most unnatural and unwholesome
existence on earth is that Of man or
who is deprived for any reason of the
association of the opposite sex.
There is vitality, magnetism and elec-
trio power generated by the positive and
negative forces of the two mentalities.
Observe a room filled with girls or
women, however bright, entertaining
and sympathetic they may be, and watch
the physical and mental change which
takes place in that audience when two
or three men enter the room. Uncon-
sciously to themselves, as rule, nstless
eyes brighten, color seeks pale cheeks.
and the whole atmosphere is animated
with a new current.

A writer in the New York Tribune is
inclined to charge with selfish motives
the majority of philanthropic workers.
He says:
Motives are almost always mixed in
this imperfect world OF ours, and it is
often hard even for the people them
selves who are termed philanthropic to
distinguish just where self-interest ends
and true charity begins. Mrs. A., who
has social aspirations, and is also Of a
kindly disposition, develops, under the
combined promptings Of her ambition
and her conscience, into a most efficient
worker in certain charitable associations,
and it is not for those who, urged by no
such promptings, do little for the good
of mankind to criticise her actions or
analyze unkindly her motives in associ-
ating herself with Mrs. Midas and Mrs.
Haut-Ton, who are also interested in
the work. Nevertheless. it is impossible
not to remark that the bread cast upon
the waters is returned in the form of
substantial loaves indeed. Mrs. A. sue
ceeds in establishing her footing by the
virtue Of hard, cheerful work among her
associates, and slowly but surely climbs
the ladder Of social success, while she
not unnaturally feels a glow of satisfac-
ton in contempla ting the good which she
feels she has accomplished. The face
value is what we must look for in this
life, and the rest we must take on trust.
No one is wholly good; neither is any
one wholly bad. In every direction one

A WOman's Kiss.

The story of Ingeborg Winding ana
Poul VendelbO LOvenorn is we'll known
In Denmark. poul Nendelbo, poor
student, went one day on the rampnrts
around Copenhagen and walked with
two rich noblemen who, like himself,
had matriculated at the university.
They happened to notice singularly
beautiful woman sitting at the Win
dow Of one Of the adjacent houses.
One Of the nobemen then said half
mockingly to Vendelbo, Nov, If you
could get kiss from that lady, Foul,
we would defray the expenses Of that
tour abroad which you are so anxious
to make"
Vendelbo took him at his word. went
up to the beautiful lady and told her
how his whole future depended posi-
bly, on her. She then drew him toward
the window and In the view Of the no.
blemen gave him the kiss he craved.
he then went abroad and, returning
at last as Adjutant General Lovenorn,
paid the fair lady visit. She was
Ingeborg Winding, and she had made
clever mans fortune by kiss.

ORIGIN of Kills,

1t will doubtless surprise many
Scotchmcn to learn that the kilt as at
present worn is only a modern fancy
costume and is not of Scottish origin
at all.
The honor Of its invention Is due to
two Englishmen-an army tailor who
accompanied General Wade's forces to
Scotland In 1919 and Thomas Rawlin-
son, overseer Of some iron works In
Glengarry's country. For more than
a century previously. indeed, the tar
tan plaid had been the common garb
of the highlanders, but 1t was all IN
one piece, wound In folds around the
body, leaving the knees bare.
Prior to the adoption Of the tartan,
which probably took place about the
close of the fifteenth century, the long,
loose saffron colored skirt, the real
"garb of old Gaul," was the highland
dress.-London Mail.

On one occasion when William Black,
the novelist, and his wife were to sup
with Mary Anderson in her room at
the Lyceum he got access beforehand
to the supper room, famous as the
meeting place Of the old Beefsteak
club, and pasted over the labels of the
champagne bottles a paper bearing In
large letters the one word Poison

A Gigantic Goddess of War.

In the Japanese capital there is a g.
gantic image of woman made of
wood, iron and plaster. The time of its
erection and the name Of Its designer
are In dispute, but 1t Is known to have
been dedicated to Hachiman, the god
Of war. In height 1t measures fifty
four feet, the head alone, which Is
reached by winding stairway In the
interior Of the figure. being capable Of
holding company Of twenty persons.
The goddess holds sword in her right
hand and huge painted wooden ball
In the left. Internally the statue is the
finest anatomical model in existence,
every bone, joint and ligament being
represented on gigantic scale in pro
portion to the height and general size
Of the huge figure itself. The large
eyes are magnifying glasses. through
which a fine view of the surrounding
country may be had.
