Gabrielle D'Annunzio, the distin-
guished Italian writer. has been re-
ceiving during the last few months so
many requests for his autograph
from collectors and admirers not only
in Italy, but throughout Europe. that
he has at last grown tired of signing
his name and has adopted q novel
method of notifying the public that
he is unable to comply with any such
requests in future. In the hotel at
Bologna where he is staying this no
tice may now be read: Gabrielle
D'Annunzio's right hand is injured
and therefore he regrets to say that
he cannot write his name in albums
or on postal cards." etc.

4 Filipino Leverage.

Tuba is the national drink of the
Filipinos, and its factories are plenti-
full throughout the islands, says the
New York Herald. The sole plant is q
cocoanut palm. A native, armed with
short bolo, chops notches in the
trunk and climbs to the top. Up
among the great spreading leaves he
cuts OF the end of the young stem that
bears the cocoanuts and ties in its
place a hollow joint Of bamboo to
catch the dripping sap.
The next day our native makes his
rounds again, carrying, quiverlike. a
hollow section of bamboo over his
shoulder, to hold the drink that kindly
nature has distilled for him.
The Juice is usually colored. with
bark, which adds a flavor desirable to
Filipino palates. It makes mildly
fermented drink. not more intoxicat-
ing than sweet cider when fresh, but
gathers power with age. They like it
only when fresh, however, and a
drunken native is rarely seen.
AT the market stands the foaming
beverage is ladled out Of an earthen-
ware jar with . bamboo dipper. For
