NOT A CRIME WITH THEM.
Men Who Make Money by Flirting. With Women.

Men Who Make Money by Flirting. With Women.
 Flirting is by no means the airnless pastime which it appears to be. Cyni- cal persons may look upon it as kind of madness, but, if 1t deserves that de- scription, it is certainly a madness in which there is often a good deal of method. Flirting is for some people an education, a school of experience, teach ing the knowledge necessary to the pro- per selection of suitable partner. Mo- tives more oubtful sometimes inspire the flirt. "
 For instance, a young author who is beginning to make for himself a name finds good deal of inspiration for his stories in this way Most of his char acters are drawn from life, and to ob- tain his surprisingly deep and varied knowledge of different types of woman- hood the writer in question has had re- course to flirting on quite a wholesale plan. Possessed of good memory, he has been able to reproduce some of the scenes in which he himself has been one of the chief actors, with natural- ness and fidelity which has lent very convincing air of realism to his pages.
 Flirting helps to swell the income of ia fashionable young jeweler whose clientele is largely composed of mem bers of the gentler sex. On being ad- vised by a friend recently to marry and settle he declared that nothing would please him better, but he was prevented from doing so by the fact that his busf- ness prosperity depended almost solely upon his remaining single and disen-

 Tse-hsi. Empress Dowager. was the next to appear, standing for some time on the railway platform, with its voyent embroidery, g eunuch supporting her under either arm. On this occasion she certainly looked her age, sixty-eight, with her very broad face and many double chins. Her eyes, the longest probably ever seen, remained cast down and though there was Q great appear ance of graciousness. the smile, whose coldness even chills foreign minister, was absent. Yet even she stood still. and silent. with her eyes cast down, one felt the magnetic power of the woman. There was no appearance of powder or paint about her, no indication of either eyes of eyebrows being artificially heightened. If done at all, it must have been well done. But the thing that was most striking about her was her still-. ness.Mr Archibald in the CornhilI Magazine.

change would be very disagreeable. and takes the trouble to make plain talk on such subjects, he is generally in earnest, and it is not well to disregard his views.
 Soon after a vacancy occurred oppor- tunely in the Japan mission, and MT. Barrett was at once selected for that place. But he didn't just fit. Japan did not want MT. Barrett, and another man was selected. Meanwhile it was found thatleven should change occur ill the China mission that Oriental country had the same objection to MT. Barrett as Japan, and so 1t was ar ranged that when a change did occur, W. w. Rockhill would be sent as Con- gers successor Rockhill knows more about China than any other American. He has travelled extensively in that country, and has kept fully informed regarding every political development. He is recognized as the very best man that could be found for the important post.
 But just as it seems an opportune time to make change, something of a diplomatic nature happens in China and Minister Conger handles 1t with entire satisfaction. First, briefly by cable. he tells the state department what he has done, and his course Is approved. Then by mall comes his dispatches, and it is found he had done even better than was expected. You can't relieve a minister who is working like that. especially when a great many questions are asked. Probably at the end of his eight years service a change can be made without offense to him or his powerful friends in Iowa. He may be sent to Europe as the ambassador, and then Mr.Rockhifl will be made minister to China. Meanwhile John Barrett, who was promised the place by two presidents, becomes min ister to Argentina and will study South American affairs. But for real inter- esting diplomacy the Orient is the place. The Eastern game" as Joe" Cham berlain remarked to Senator aHale and rom Redd, is the most interesting in the world to-day, and promises to con tinue to be for many years to come.

The custom of many a house which has been allowed to decline through bad management and the employment of in- different attendtnts has been revived and placed in fiourishing condition by the importation of one or two smart and stylish barmaids who were not averse to little mild filtration with the patrons of the bar.
 A London dancing master attributes the success of his Cinderellas and balls to the fact that he Is a single man and has many women friends in the sur rounding parishes. A week or two pre- vious to the occurrence of any special event of his in the terpsichorean line he makes tour of calls on all these feni- nine admirers, in order to persuade them to use their influence in getting their friends to attend the festive gath- ering which is imminent. This, he says, is the best method he knows for mak- ing any dance which he arranges cuc- cess. In order, however, to keep the connection permanent he is obliged tc pay an occasional visit to his women hlpers during the .'off'' season, and he generally manages to do this by taking them,. each in turn, for day trip to the seaside during the summer.

COULD COOK.
But couIdn,t Eat.

A man who has seen many years sail ing as cook on the Inland Seas" as the Great Lakes are called, has learned a thing or two about food as the follow ing story shows:
 q am cook on the Great Lakes and have for five years suffered more than pen or tongue could tell, from stomach trouble. and have taken medicines enough to float the boat I sail in, and yet without any relief from pain.
 There were long stretches of time when could not even keep milk or wine or the lightest kind of food on my stomach, and I had fallen away from 145 to 105 pounds in less than two years. . saw so much in the newspapers about your food Grape-Nuts that one day decided to try it, although without the least hope of success.
 So I bought a package in Cleveland, and made the trial, and my stomach was so cranky, I was afraid to try more than one teaspoonful with a little milk. To my surprise kept it on my stomach without any bad feelings and at the end of an hour | knew it had digested and gone to the right spot, so I tried two teaspoonfuls more with the same result. And now for the past seven months I have lived almost en- tirely on Grape-Nuts where before simply lived on medicines which con- sisted principally of opiates that re- lieved me for time but shattered my nerves and weakened my stomach
 "Soon after began Grape-Nu I gave up all medicines, for saw that
 
 my nerves are back in their proper shape and my stomach is so strong I can eat almost any kind of food with out any suffering whatever.
 Tt may interest you to know that your food is very fine in cases of sea- sickness, for in this line it has no equal. In many cases of very rough water I have given Grape-Nuts to people on my boat who were seasick, when the sight of even coffee would be unbearable, but few teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts prepared with only water was taken and more asked for and given with per- feet results.
 'fYou never saw two healthier or hap pier youngsters than my two grand children who eat nothing else for break fast or supper but Grape-Nuts There are two other men on my boat besides myself who eat nothing else but Grape Nuts for breakfast. Had it not been for this perfect food would now be de- pendent on my relations for support. The fellows on the boat make fun of me when they see me coming along with my little yellow package, but I guess under the circumstances can af- ford to layEh with them.a ..,.~@

ington as in Picking.
 For about three years two presidents. a number Of senators and several anx- ious aspirants have been trying to make a change of ministers at Peking, China, but without avail. of course, it would be an easy matter to ointfmate to Minis ter Conger that his resignation would be acceptable, but such is not the case. Back in 1900 it was thought that Minis ter CoAger, would relinquish his post at the close of his first four years. John Barrett was anxious for the place, and President Mckinley had promised it. to him. The Oregon senators, being close | to Mckinley, had clinched the promise. < But then came up the siege of Picking and the conduct of Minister Conger was such as to cause praise from every quarter It would have been a cruel thing to dismiss him after all he had gone through and consequently he stayed. Minister Conger then took a leave of absence and came to the Uni- ted States. It "leaked out'' that he would not return. and upon his arrival here he received collection of news paper paragraphs speculating upon his successor But Conger was not born

 PROSECUTOR WOODRUFFoS STORY
 Attorney Robert J. Woodruff. prose- cutting attorney of the common pleas court. denies that he ever appeared be- fore the city court as defending coun- esel.
 About six weeks ago F. L. Averill Mr. Woodruff's associate in the practice of law, was retained by an Italian held for trivial breach of the peace. When the day for the trial came MT. Averill was out of town. The client called at the office and asked MT Woodruff to represent him. MT. Woodruff called on Prosecutor Webb and learned that it had been decided to fine the man s1 and costs on his plea of guilty, as the mat ter was a very slight offense.
 This was MT. Woodruff's sole connec- tion with the case, and he did not at the time appear before the city court. The statement that he has appeared recently in six cases is manifestly in correct.
 From another source 1t is learned that the allegations presented are said to be inspired by the failure of MT. Spinello to continue to act as interpreter in the common pleas court. For some time a new interpreter has been acting in the common pleas court.
