Traits of Three Cities.

A Chicagoan may frankly tell you
that you are losing valuable time if
you live elsewhere than in his city.
His mental attitude is the result Of
too much Chicago. A New Yorker pub
licly proclaims it that when you get a
few miles outside Of New York city
you really cease to live and are simply
camping out. That is the result of too
much New York. A Bostonian says
nothing, and you understand his mean
ing perfectly. You realize that he is
not saying whole volumes to you, and
you are powerless to dispute a word
Of it. You have a feeling that he ia

that, Boston Is all there is.-Nixon

Famous AbduCtiOn9.

Marriage by abduction was by no
means uncommon in the early ages.
The daughter of the king Of Argus
was abducted by Phenician. The
Greeks carried off Europa from Tyre
and Medea from Colchis.
Next to the abduction of the fair
Helen, perhaps the most remarkable
in it's political consequences was the
King Of Leinster's taking away Of the
wife of a neighboring petty sovereign,
O'Rourke of Breffni.
The king Of Connaught avenged the
insult and drove from the throne his
brother Of Leinster, who appealed to
Henry II. Of England for aid to re-
cover his lost sovereignty. The Nor
man conquest of Ireland followed, with
long centuries of war and devastation.

Gum Catherine.

In Yucatan the gathering of the ia
nous chicle chewing gum is an occupa-
ton apparently full of romance, not
unattended with considerable danger.
Bands Of men, known as ''chicleros,"
go into the deep forests, under ex-
perienced leaders. armed with heavy
Gnives of special make. pals and ladies'
for the sap, and each provided with
strong rope more than eighty feet
long to be used in climbing the lofty
sapota trees from which the gum Is
procured. The sap flows from gashes
cut in the bark. A camp of chicleros
where the sap is boiled resembles in
some respects an American maple
sugar camp. After months of work
the chicleros return from the forests
laden with bricklike blocks of aromatic
gum. The finest gum. known as
'sicte." is collected from the fruit Of
the sapota. mostly by the native wom-
en-. and is seldom exported because 1t
Is too well liked at home.

Perpetuated ON Canvas.
In a letter from an artist and art
writer Of London he speaks Of the
absurd mistakes made by some Of the
old masters. In the very pretentious
and also very large portrait Of Queen
Victoria executed by Benjamin Con-
slant the well known French artist
painted the ribbon of the Order Of the
Garter of a wrong color, and the art
ist was much chagrined by the evil
dence of his own carelessness. Queen
Victoria told him he was using the
wrong color, but he was not convinced.
There is landscape by famous
English painter in which rainbow Is
depicted behind the sun, and picture
of Eden is in the gallery of the Gesu.
in Lisbon, where Adam and Eve are
represented as watching procession
of monks.
In the famous galleries Of Antwerp
are certain pictures by old masters In
which the tumble of ideas Is as re-
markable as the technique is fine. In
one picture of heaven the archangels
are armed with bows and arrows, and
In a painting Of the Murder Of the
Innocents' the massacre is represent
ed as taking place in city of Holland.
The parents of the children are stout

formed into solid schoolboys in bulgy
trousers and jackets and hobnailed

When England was being made into
mincemeat aud blocks Of real estate
by the Saxcns and Danes, silver and
brass were ia use as currency, but the
Normans subsequently, installed the
aristocratic metal and left the demo-
cratic brass to take care of itself.
Gold was first coined by Henry III.
and copper made into British coin in
1872. Tin was used for coinage In
1880, and the national farthing was
made Of this Cambrian product, with a
stud Of copper set in the center. In
1880 and 1851 tin halfpence were is-
sued in considerable quantities. The
only pure gold coins issued in Eng

Things He Didn't Understand.


At the table on an incoming liner on
recent trip one of the first cabin pas
sengers found in an oyster one Of the
tiny seed pearls which look almost
exactly like bird shot. Apparently the
formation of pearls was a mystery to
him, for he examined the thing curious
ly, picked it up gingerly and laid it on
the tablecloth for further investiga-
ton.
Now, it is a habit Of cooks at sea to
carry fishhooks in their pockets, and
on this trip, by curious coincidence,
part Of a small hook got caught in a
piece of beefsteak that was served to
this particular passenger. AS soon as
his knife encountered the hard object
he started, picked it out carefully and
laid it beside his other find on the
cloth.
Then he beckoned to the waiter and
conhdentially whispered in his ear.
II don't want to be impertinent," he
said. "but would you mind telling me
where you shoot your oysters and why
you catch your steaks with hook and
line ?"-New York Post.

OLD FAMILIES OF VENICE,

Their Fortunes Are Dissipnted and
Their Palaces Sold.
Very few of the fine old palaces of
Venice belong to the descendants of the
families who built and originally occu-
pied them. Very little of the enormous
wealth for which Venice was celebrat-
ed in the fifteenth century remains.
The most Of it has been dissipated by
the descendants of the men who made
1t, the same as in England, France and
other countries. The rich men Of Ven
ice today are an entirely new class of
people, whose names do not appear in
the Golden Book, which contained q
list Of the patrician families in Venice
who were invited to festivities at the
palace. This book was instituted In
1915 and thenceforth until the Aus
trian occupation was the index and
standard of nobility by which all claims
to precedence were decided.
Occasionally the grand council. by q
vote, rewarded the gallantry or public
services of some citizen of humble
birth by directing that his name be in
scribed upon it's pages. None but those
WHOSE udLueS were III Tie OO1UGu DOOk
could use the golden stairs when they
entered doge's palace, and when this
right was conferred it was equivalent
to an order of nobility in another coun-
try. There is one notable exception to
the decay of the ancient families, and
he is Count Grimani, who traces his
lineage back to one of the most ia
nous of the doges. whose portrait,
painted by Titan, hangs in the council
chamber OF the doge's palace. The
Grimani palace is on the Grand canal,

Many of the rich men in Venice TO-
day are Jews. They practically control
the banking business and manufacture
ing. They own the fine houses Of his.
torical interest and the best paying es-
tates on the mainland in the neigh
borhood. The present wealth of Venice
is invested not so much In real estate
as in banking. manufacturing, -four

Tortoise She'll.

What is known as tortoise SHELF
consists Of the thin outer scales which
overlie the shell of a species Of sea
turtle. The Smelling process consists
in spreading dried leaves or grass even-

on fire. The heat causes the shell to
separate at the joints, but does not in
jure it. A large blade ia then inserted
horizontally between the lamin@,
which are gently pried from the back.
