THE GIRL WHO IS LOVED.
Must Be Admired by Those Of Her
Own, Sex.

From the American Queen zOS
A woman cannot be- said to be truly at
tractive or popular Unless she is loved and
admired by the members Of her own sex as
well as the opposite. ro She, must be welcom-
ed by all, old and young, male and female,
or she cannot be called an attractive wo-
man without reservation r.
She must be herself, her, best self, at all
times and with all people; she must think
and act for herself. and express her own
opinions rather thanstry 70 copy some per-
son she may admire or who is admired by
the lords of creation. Individuality, when
combined with polite manner and tact, is
always attractive. A wonnan's happy, in
fictitious laugh is better than medicine ar
advice, and her CHEEKY presence Is as well
come as the sunshine.
A girl to be truly popular never says
mean things about other girls, thinking
that the men will like her better, and ahe
doesn't try to monopolize the attentions OF
all the men at once, but Is willing to let
other girls have their snare OF admiration
and attention along with her. She doesn't
NOPE and retreat within herself If there are
no men about to admire her, but she cheer
fully sets about making the best Of matters
without them, and making such companions
as she has happier and brighter for her
presence.
If she has a grievance she keeps 1t to
very soon voted bore. The weeping,
fainting sad-eyed young woman Is very
much out of style nowadays, not only In
novels but in real life, and the healthy,
happy, Independent, cheerful and sunny
girl has totally eclipsed her In popularity.

nation Of the idea, fascinating it unques-
tionably was to the Muruts and the
prophet had no lack of followers. Where
fore upon a certain day, when the process
Of initiation was declared to be complete,
a number of men climbed to the tops Of the
highest cocoanut trees in their village, and,
triumphantly testifying to the boundless
faith Of the oriental, cast themselves thence
to the ground, thus gaining an afterlife in
deed, but without the aid Of wings. A fall
ure on so large scale as this, and fraught
with consequences so unpleasant, might
have been thought sufficient to cool the
enthusiasm and to discredit any prophet;
but this was not the case.
The magician explained that the dead men
had fallen victims to their inability to COM
ply literally with the minute instructions
which he had given them as being essential
to their due initiation into his mysteries. and
not only was this view of the circumstances
accepted In all good faith, but passing from
village to village, he was able to find many
to furnish practical proof Of their mistaken
confidence In his mission, to the material
enhancement Of his own wealth and the
dislocation Of his neighbors necks. How
long this state Of things might have con-
tinued it is impossible to guess, but more
than score of men had been killed before
the North Borneo Chartered Company step
ped in, arrested the prophet. amid much
popular disa pprObation, and immured him
in the Jail at Sandakan, over the high
walls Of which his power Of fying-of
which by the way. no one had ever had an
ocular demonstration-has not served to
carry him.

FRENCH NEWSPAPER WAR.
Fight Between the Old and New Re-
gimes in Paris.

Paris Corr. London Mail.
The penny and three-halfpenny papers are
rapidly disappearing from France and they
will receive further blow as the outcome
of the great journalistic struggle now in
progress between the Journal on the one
hand and the Petit Journal and the PETIT
Parisien on the other.
A personal investigation of the facts re-
veal some curious features of the contest.
All the three papers concerned are half
penny sheets, but the Journal is much
younger organ than the other two papers.
and was the first newspaper in France to
offer the public six pages for halfpenny
This measure increased the rivalry already
existing, and later the Petit Parisien AMI
Petit Journal reluctantly enlarged their
size to six pages, but now the Journal an
nounces that it contemplates another DE-
velopment and will shortly appear as an
eight-page paper, even reaching to ten or
twelve when occasion demands 1t. This was
more than the Petit Journal and the Petit
Parisien could stand, SO, sinking their dif-
ferences, they Joined hands and agreed TO
wage common war against the journal.
They commenced operations by issuing
notice to all their agents throughout France
informing them that they must choose be-
tween the Journal and the Petit Journal
and the Petit Parisien. If they wished to
continue the sale Of the two latter, then
they must drop the former. If, on the con-
trary, they preferred the Journal then
they must cease to sell the Petit Parisien
and the Petit Journal.
1t is asserted that since the two latter
journals increased their size from four to
six pages a considerable falling off in profit
has been the result, each of them losing
from 100000 to fSO,009 per annum. The
Journals circulation is officially stated to
be 10000 per day, and steadily rising, and

building up a vast organization which has
cost us immense sums of money in the
French provinces. In many cases the only
news vendor in the town or village Is The
agent placed there by us for the sale Of
our paper and receiving an indemnity from
us. We have besides a regiment OF inspec-
tors always on tour all over France whose
duty 1t Is to see that the thousands OF VEN
doris attend to their business. Owing TO
our tolerance the agents established by US
have gradually taken to selling other pa
pers which cost us so much, and In the
presence Of the increasing competition with
which we are threatened by the journal
we have decided to put q stop to what has
become serious abuse.
The fight between the three papers prom
ises to be the liveliest one in the annals OF
French journalism.

HISTORIC CHRISTMAS.
Noteworthy Occurrences During the
Holiday Season.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
While no event comparable with the
event Of all events in the history of the
world which is commemorated by all
Christendom on December 25 has ever taken
place on or about that day, it has never
theless marked the occurrence OF not a
few noteworthy deeds and other happen
ings in the annals Of our race. Some Of
these things have been Of that happy and
propitious character in keeping with the
spirit Of the time itself. and others have
been quite the reverse of this. Among
what may be regarded as Joyous events
taking place on Christmas day, or there
abouts. may be included the coronation Of
William the Conqueror, which took place
on December Is. 1066. In the same cate
CORY we would place the landing Of the
Pilgrims, which occurred only four days
before Christmas. in 1920. The same hap
py season. in 1871. witnessed the ratifica-
ton of the Quintuple alliance for suppress
ing the slave trade.
But, strange to say, occurrences Of sad
and tragical nature seem to have been
more common on Christmas than any other
notable events. During the fourteenth CEN
fury there were three dramatic Christ
masses. In 134s the black death was rag
ing. In 1884 the persecution Of Wycliffe
was rapidly bringing on that paralytic
stroke by which he died on December 81.
Saddest perhaps of all was the Christmas
spent by Isabelle. Dowager Queen Of Ed
ward II, in Castle Rising. where she re-
manned a prisoner for the next twenty
seven years OF her life
For the Stuarts of England Christmas
sometimes breathed a tragedy. Mary,
