At five o'clock one morning a few
weeks later the family with whom the
teacher boarded was aroused by loud
ringing at the door bell, relates Charles
W. Taylor, in the Chicago Tribune.
The man Of the house got out Of bed,
thrust his feet into a pair of slippers,
and went to the front door,
who's there?" he asked.

Tommy was admitted and shown into
the parlor.
Miss Adair was awakened and in-
formed that a boy wanted to see her on
business that admitted of no delay.
She dressed herself hurriedly and
came down.

ENGLISH WOMEN GROW LAX.
They Are Far Less Formal in Their
General Habits Than in the
Recent Past.

For centuries the women Of England
have maintained reputation for observ-
ing all the prophecies of life with pune
tiliousness that could not be surpassed.
When advised to do anything out OF the
ordinary their first question has been:
Would it be proper" Oflate, however,
their strictness seems to have relaxed
a little, and we hear Of them doing hith-
erto inconceiyable things for English
women, says London paper
It would appear that the habit Of smok-
ing is growing among women, and girl
schools apparently are reeking with
cigarette smoke. These girls do not
seem to be abashed by letting the world
know of their habit, and many girls in
their schools smoke. Doctors have taken
sides pro and con, and the discussion
wakes hot.
It would appear to be fact that the
smoking habit already is firmly fixed In
society, and it is no uncommon sight to
see alleged smart" women light ciga-
Fette in certain public restaurants and
hotel cafes. In West end restaurants,
where fashionable people lunch and dine
every day, women bring out gold jeweled
cases and light their favorite Egyptian
or Turkish as a matter of course.
Many of these women are most fastidi-
BUS about the brands they smoke, and
in numerous cases West end tobaccon-
lists mix special tobaccos to please dis
tinguished customers.
In almost all cases the most popular
cigarettes for women are gold tipped
or coated at the end with thicker pa
per. Very few women use holders; 1t is
not considered the right thing.
At most of the private dances held in
town cigarettes are generally smoked
in the intervals between the dances.
Men and girls compete with each other
In blowing smoke rings and letters IN
the air. A peers daughter is accom-
plished in the art Of smoking the olga
rette with the lighted end in her mouth.
Smoking has been quite common
practice in women's clubs for some time,
and rooms are set apart especially for
smoking.
West end tobacconists include many
well-known women among tteir GUS
toners, and in the opinion Of West end
jewellers the most popular gifts sold
last Christmas time were cigarette cases
in gold and enamel, prettily jeweled and
monogrammed. The country house par
ties-riots Of license-reveal the fact
that nine out of ten women guests smoke,
and they do It openly with the men.
After dinner the men and women talk
scandal and tell stories over the wine
and cigarettes.

HUNDREDS OF laps
DYING OF CHOLERA.

London, May PA dispatch from ST.
Petersburg says it is officially stated that
the general staff has no information of any
land battle at Port Arthur. 1t is also Off
clally stated that no confirmation has been
received of the report of battle at Kin
chow in which the japanese were said to
have lost 5000 and the Russians 5000
men.
There Is great alarm among the Chinese
in Lao Yang and Mukden over threat
made by the Russians that they would
burn the towns should they be compelled
to evacuate them.
The St. Petersburg correspondent of the
Central News wires that advices from Lao
Yang, Manchuria, state that cholera has
broken out at Feng Huang Cheng and
that hundreds of Japanese are dying
