WHARFAGE FREE AT ST. LOUIS
Twenty Miles of River Front For Wa
ter Craft at Worlds Fair City.

ter Craft at Worlds Fair City.
Free wharfage will be given to all
boats landing at St Louis during the
Worlds Fair. Traffic Manager Hill
leary of the Exposition and Joseph p.
Whyte, harbor and wharf commission
er of st. Louis, have decided on the To-
cations assigned to the various kinds
of boats.
Yachts, steam launches and all boats
propelled by their own power have
been assigned wharf space between
Choteau avenue and Biddle street.
These streets, running east and west.
form the boundary lines for the CEN
trail business district of the city.
House boats have been assigned
wharf space north Of Biddle street
and south of Choteau avenue.
ST. Louis has a river front of twen-
ty miles. The Broadway line of the
Transit company parallels the river
from the city limits on the north to
Jefferson Barracks on the south. At
no point are the cars more than FIVE
blocks from the Mississippi river. The
Worlds Fair may be reached for one
fare by transferring to any of the
eight lines that cross Broadway and
reach the Exposition grounds.
No charge will be made for wharf
age. Application for space should be
made to the harbor and wharf COM
missioner at the City Hall, on Twelfth
street, between Market street and
Clark avenue.

A Book the only Immortality.

"After all,' as the brilliant and mel
ancholy Rufus Choate said, "a book Is
the only Immortality" and sometimes
when book is attacked and even de-
nounced It's destiny of fame Is only con-
firmed, as the vivacious and CHEEKY
Pope Pho Mono when asked by too
daring author TO help on his latest pub
lication suggested that he could only
aid 1t by putting 1t in the Index Ex-
purgatorius. Yet II book is to be
left unread at last the fault must ulti-
mately rest on the author, even as the
brilliant Lady Eastlake complained
when she wrote of modern English
novellsts: Things are written now to
be read once and no more-that Is, they
are read as often as they deserve. A
book In old times took five years TO
write and was read 500 times by 800
people. Now Il is written in three
months and read once by 100000 peo-
pie. That's the proper prcportion."-

UNDER THE ROSE.
The Term which stands ms the SYM
bol of Closed Lips.


Sir L. Browne, In his Enquiries Into
Vulgar Errors" dated 1646, says OF the
old phrase sub rosa, 1.-The expression Is
commendable. IL the rose from any
naturall propertie may be the symbolic
of silence" and goes on to quote some
Latin lines which represent the rose
bud folded in its sheath as an emblem
Of closed lips.
He also speaks of the secrecy to be
observed ain society and compotation,
from the ancient custome In Symposi-
acke meetings TO wear chaplets Of roses
about their heads"
Others derive the expression from the
fable that Cupid gave rose to Har-
pocrates, the god OF silence, as a bribe
TO prevent the disclosure Of the amours
Of Venus.
There are many records OF roses
carved upon ceilings in early and In
more modern times as reminders to
guests that words spoken in convivial
moments should not be repeated.
1t is said that In 1925 roses conse-
Grated by the pope were placed over
the confessionals In Rome to denote Sc
crecy.

A Beneficial Shock.

One day gentleman gave half a
crown to n deaf and dumb" beggar,
who, quite taken off his guard by such
unusual munificence, exclaimed: BLESS
you, sir! Bless you"
"Hellow said the gentleman. 1
thought you were deaf and dumb
$50 was, sir" replied the beggar,
''but your extraordinary generosity
was such a shock-such n pleasant
shock-to the system that it has re-
stored my speech and hearing. Bless
you again. sir, thousand times.
