Wonderful Hats.

Abraham Lincoln was man whose
keen wit and pleasing humor extricat'
ed him from many an embarrassing
situation. On one occasion he was pre-
sented with two fine hats, each by
different hatmaker, neither knowing
that the other had made such contri-
button. In the course Of events they
called upon the president, and 1t so
happened that both called at the same
time.
When both found themselves In the
presence Of the executive they asked
how he had liked the hats they had
sent him, and, taking advantage OF the
opportunity Of securing statement OF
superiority of one or the other make,
the president was asked to state his
preference.
To many men such question would
be very embarrassing, but to Lincoln
not at ALL He took the hats, one In
each hand, and then replied gravely,
but with a mischievous twinkle in his
keen eyes:
Gentlemen, your hats do mutually
surpass each other!

MUSIC AS A TONIC.
An Incident of the Dying Days OF
Famous Man.

A great statesman, one who had all

1t was my first afternoon In the

grind forth its turgid strains before

expecting with each moment that some
one would issue from the house OF
doom and drive the dinmaker away.
Instead, a bright black man, evidently
a butler, came and stood on the porch.
An hour went by before the repertory
was exhausted. Then the black man
gave the organ man dollar, and the
music and the man went quietly their
ways.

master" said to the black guardian
of the porch.
"He likes it," he replied. "The organ
comes by his orders. The doctor says
It does him more good than the medi-
cines."
For q week | went and sat on my
bench and heard the organ grind. The
programme never varied. The concert
lasted an hour. Then came the dollar,
and the music ceased.
For full week attended these con-
certs in the square. Then came a day
when the hand organ did not appear.

The concert was ten minutes overdue!

Man and Eternity.

What is it DR.. Wallace asks US to

book in the attempt to prove? 1t is
that at some distant period, and Dr.
Wallace makes much Of its distance as
an argument in his favor, this uni
verse was called into existence by the
will of q Creator for a specific pur-
pose, the production Of man. Assum-
ing the initial fact, we must agree with
DR.. Wallace in assigning hundreds OF
millions Of years to the age Of the
universe. Then there arrived man. He
has been here for n few hundreds OF
thousands of years. He has still few
"a very few-millions Of years to rum
1t is true that in one place DR.. Wallace
speaks of him as permanent" but
elsewhere he repeatedly admits there
must come-and that comparatively
soon-a period to mans existence. But
he has apparently never asked himself,
"What then?" We know that matter
and energy are indestructible. We
have every reason to believe the uni
verse will exist forever, and DR.. Wal
lace suggests no alternative. Yet he
believes that the hundreds Of millions
Of stars were called into existence

for a quite indefinite period to come in

Women's Work In Korea.

AS there are no labor saving ma
chimes in Korea, women's work is done
by the crudest and hardest methods
possible, from hulling rice with a
heavy wood or stone pestle to washing
clothes by beating them in the streams
and ironing them with sticks. In or
der to iron, the clothes must always be
ripped apart and wrapped round a
wooden roller while damp. They are
then beaten by either one or two wom-
en-. 1t is surprising to see the gloss
on the white calico and the sheen upon
the linen produced by this method OF
ironing. It surpasses the dressing one
sees in this country on newly bought
linen. Since the people dress exclu-
sively in white the woman's day-and
often much of the night, tools spent
In wash-ironing, ironing and sewing.

Women's "syndicate Dinners"

A young society matrOn Of Philadel-
phia has instituted a novel sort of din
ner Ten young women have formed
themselves into a sort Of club, the mis-
sion of which is to give a very elab-
crate dinner once q month. The din
ners are held at the different members
houses, but the hostess provides the
servants and the flowers only. The
novelty of the club is in the way the
food is provided.
Each girl is intrusted with one course
of the menu. 1t is her duty to decide
what 1t shall be and arrange with the
cook as to how she wishes it to be
served. When all the guests are seated
at the table the butler announces every
course by the title of the young woman
who ordered and paid for 1t. There are
charming little menus. too, on which are
written Soup la Marie Wharton"
"Roti a Ia Edith Burden" etc, which
show who was responsible for every
course.
The interest that Is shown In the
preparation and eating Of these club
dinners is very striking. Each girl
tries TO make her course the best and
most popular. and in the evening votes
are cast as to which was the most sue
cessful course.-PhiIadelph Record.

False Hair.

Wearing false hair is very wide
spread custom. In the language of the
tradesman, hair grown on the heads OF
northern nations is the most valuable
both because Of its superior fneness
and gloss and its color. Germany and
Sweden provide the most valuable hair,
especially ii it be golden blond, which
IS of the finest texture and Of a color
impossible to obtain by artificial dyes.
Italy and other southern nations pro-
duce only coarser and less costly vari-
cites. Most precious of all, however,
is hair of n true silver gray color,
which in sufficiently long plaits is al
most impossible to procure, chiefly from
the fact that It's very rarity causes
those women lucky enough to possess 1t
to refuse to part with it. The most
constant supply Of human hair for the
worlds market, however, comes from
the peasant girls in countries such as
Russia and Galicia, where Immediately
after marriage headddess is assumed
which makes the lack Of It's natural
covering unnotlceable. In Bohemia,
Moravia and Galicia there are regular
hair markets to which the women
take their hair for sale.

WORDS WITHOUT RHYME.
Some Difficulties the Poets Cannot
Overcome.


In we'll known musical comedy the
kingly poet of a mythical state makes
q frantic demand on his subjects for
rhyme with sarsaparilla. The question
calls to mind the surprisingly few
words there are in the comparatively
harsh English tongue. with its plethora
of consonants, for which there are no
rhyming equivalents. Sarsaparilla. as
a manufactured name, is hardly fair
example, but there are said to be only
three familiar words Of everyday
speech which loom up ferociously be-
fore the student of metrical possibili-
ties. They are silver month and car
pet. OF these silver alone remains alb
solutely unassailable, for Swinburne
has in one Of his poems a word Of
Greek derivation which may be said
at a pinch TO rhyme with month, and
w. S. Gilbert of "Pinafore" and MI
kado" fame has in the "Bab Ballads"
ingeniously conquered carpet as fol-
lows:
One day that Turk he sickened sore,
Which threw him straight into sharp
pet.
He threw himself upon the floor
And rolled about his carpet
The same author has also establish
ed a record in Patience" for rhyming
unfamiliar words that look extremely
formidable to the novice. The verse
runs:
When from the poets plinth
The amorous calocynth, ETC.,
which, although it be very beautiful. Is
hardly Ineligible.
But silver is still obstinate, and the
young Musaen who ends his first line
with that fatal word had better stick
to blank verse.-Philadelphia Record.
