SHE SAVED THE HAT,

From the New York Press:
A sudden shower came up just az the
young woman alighted from an L
train. She bought a popular magazine
from the newsboy and then went UP to
the ticket chopper.
x'Kindly notify me when it has
stopped raining she said to him, as
She passed into the ladies' waiting room
There she disposed herself as comfort
ably as possible on hardbacked bench,
and for more than an hour placidly
read her magazine.
Several times the gateman slipped
past the window and saw her immersed
in a story, obvious to her surroundings.
Then the shower passed away, and he
poked his head in at the door.
"Rain's all over, lady," he announced.
She thanked him with smile,
straightefied out her skirts and rolled
up the magazine. AS she was: passing
the gate she seemed to think that some
explanation was necessary.
TITS the hat" she announced to the
gateman. II paid $1S for it about two
hours ago, and; foolishly started to wear
it home. It's a. lot pleasanter to sit on

that your brand new hat is being
ruined before you have had, even one
chance to show it,

IF SAHARA WE'RE A SEA.
From the London Answer:

from the LONDON Answer.
French engineers have declared it is
perfectly feasible to convert the desert
Of Sahara into a vast lake, thus open
ing to commerce great regions of the
interior of Africa, which can now only
be reached by long, tedious and danger
Gus caravan journeys. They say that
a large portion of the desert lies below
the level Of the Atlantic, and that by
digging canal to let in the; waters Of
the ocean the great change could be
affected easily and at a cost which
would be small compared to the bene-
fits which would accrue.
If the whole desert lay below the level
of the Atlantic the flooding of it would
create a: sea over four times as big as
the Mediterranean; but as the Sahara
is composed of elevated p1ateaus, noun
tain ranges and depressions only part
would be covered with water when the
waves of the ocean were let in, and the
new sea thus formed would be an irreg-
ular body of water, probably Of about
the saline size Of the Mediterranean.
Great commercial cities would at once
spring up on it's: shores and trade and
civilization strike at once to tile: heart
of Africa. The sea Of Sahara; may new
er become a reality, but, in any event
it is a gigantic and pleasing dream:
