TO WIN SOCIAL SUCCESS.
It Is Necessary to Become Good
Listener and Show Emotion Over
Small Talk.

"One of the first qualifications for a
man or woman who aims at being a
social success is the ability to talk
and listen to twaddle in such a way
that the face shall express all the
depths of pent up emotions, while the
ears drink in the trivialities or the
tongue echoes the gossip of scandal Of
the hour"
This sentiment was uttered with
much JUNCTION by man of uncertain
ago, whose face and figure have for
years been familiar in the clubs, in the
bathrooms, and other places of social
resort in Chicago. His nearer was a
much younger man, whom by precept
and by example he was trying to mi
ltiate into the mysteries of social life,
says the Tribune.
The two men were at theater
largely attended by the men and
women who collectively constitute the
mysterious entity, Chicago society, and
they were watching couple seated in
one Of the boxes. "Now watch the
young man and woman closely" con-
tinued the mentor. "and tell me what
you think they are talking about. You
see, that they are both young, both
handsome. I can tell you that they
are both rich and of high social stand
ing. If you don't know them yet you
must make their acquaintance at once,
for no one can be in society without
knowing them. Their conversation
seems to be interesting, doesn't it?
What are the words" continued
the elder man, "of which that pretty
picture is the accompaniment?
"Is he telling her one of those fairy
tales which all maids love to hear, Of
respectful admiration and changeless
affections? Are those arched, side
long little glances exclamation points
by which the maiden signifies her de-
light at the picture which the young
mans Imagination has painted?
can tell you just what the subject is.
You know that scandalous story
about two well-known people began
to circulate yesterday. That young
man knows all about it, for he has
excellent sources of information. His
companion knows something about it
and is anxious to know more. He is
satisfying her curiosity, and they are
both gloating over the charming little
bit of scandal. But, my boy, they are
both artists, and you must school
yourself to play your part as well as
they. The next time that you have
occasion to tell girl how many thou
sand dollars are involved in the latest
engagement transaction you must do
1t with the same caressing grace in
your gestures that this young fellow
brings into play. Then, as reward
for making a fool of yourself. the
girl will perhaps reply by one of those
half smiles which you seem to admire
so much

Greek Sailors.

Sailors Of the Grecian archipelago

HOSPITALITY is OVERCOME.
Indian Tribes in North Dakota Have
Custom Ruinous to
Digestion.

One of the most striking customs of
the past that are preserved by the In
dians of to-day is found among the
tribes on the Devils Lake reservation
in North Dakota. Supervisor Wright,
of the Indian service, gives the follow
ing account of this peculiar practice:
From time immemorial the DEVILS
Lake Sioux have adhered to an old
custom in. regard to the treatment of
a guest. According to their etiquette,
it is the bounden duty of the host to
supply his guest with all the food he
may desire, and, as rule, the appor-
tionment set before the visiting In
dian is much in excess of the capacity
of single man. But by the same Gus
tom the guest is obliged to eat all that
is placed before him, else he grossly
insults his entertainer. 1t was found
that this practice would work hard
ship, but instead of dispensing with
the custom, the Indian method of rea-
soning was applied and what is known
as the professional eater was brought
to the front.
while the guest is supposed to eat
all that is placed before him it serves
the same purpose if his, neighbor as
sists in devouring the bountiful repast,
the mafn object being to have the
plate clean when the meal is finished.
1t is not always practicable to depend
upon neighbor at table to assist in
getting away with large dinner, and
in order to insure the final consump-
ton of the allotted portion visiting
indians call upon these professional
eaters. whose duty it lis to sit beside
them through a meal and eat what the
guest leaves. The professional eaters
are never looked upon in the light Of
guests. but more as travelling COM
panions with particular duty to per-
form. These eaters receive from one
to two dollars, and even three dollars
for each meal where they assist"

RELIABLE FASHION NOTES.
Nine. Baker Chats About Toilet Kinks
and Describes Two New
Shirtwaist Suits.

Nine. Baker, the famous fashion ex-
pert. chats Interestingly about the lit
tie things that stamp the costume as
good or, bad, in the American Dress
maker. Among other things she says
that the short skirt should set out a
little in the back as our old godet
backs used to; this effect is only given
by the narrow crinolfhe facing across
the back. The skirt must always tilt
up q little; if cut the same length all
around it will have this look.
1t has been thought that the long
coats or redingotes could only be used
with the sweeping skirt, but If they set
out well in the back they can be and
are worn with style. These long coats
seem to call for lace cravats, and the
latter are very prettily made of wide
net lace insertions, either tied in loops
or knots drawn through finger rings.
Belts are of every shape-wide or
narrow, as best suits the figure
Winter gowns will have the same un-
lined collars, cuffs and small yokes that
have been used this summer, and sep
arsLte yokes and collars or chemisettes
and undersleeyes have come to stay.
Ism. it comfort to have something
for the neck that is easily removed and
cleaned?
No more pendants are used, even on
elaborate evening coats, but stiff, fiat,
old-fashioned velvet bows are on
everything.
Many skirts are following the lines
OF the apron overskirt, and ruffles are
put on as in former years; low in front,
running high Oh the sides and then
down in the back again.
Pinked ruffles and plaitings should
stand up now instead of lying down;
this necessftates lacking edges to hold
in place.
Do not attempt to make a plated
skirt from circular pattern. A gore
for every plat is the safest and best
rule, and when 21.gored skirt is men
toned. it is not skirt in narrow
strips, but laid in plaits.
A pretty trimming is made of satin
ribbons plated all one way on one
edge and reversed on the opposite side.
This Is used to separate bands, to head
lace and as scrolls.
Do not put lace on long or short
coats, unless very elaborate ones for
evening wear; and, finally, let me adj
wise you to train your eye to detect
every slight change in fashion. In

her, and rented cottage, where she
lives alone with her cats and kittens
The seed of the trouble was sown two
years ago, when Miss Carroll, who then
lived with her aunt, was presented by
friend with pretty Maltese cat with
green eyes.
The green eyes were the particularly
fetching feature of the cat, and they
appealed at once to Miss Carroll.
Miss Carroll was more inclined to-
ward kittens than she was toward
grown cats, but she old not confidc this
to the donor of the cat until she learned
the next day that the green-eyed tabby
was the mother of kittens.

for kittens.
The result was that she took one of
the infants, leaving the mother to care
for the others until they, too, became
ratters and could care for themselves.
Snowfall might have lived out her
traditional existence of nine lives in the
Taylor domicile had she continued as
she started out, but one morning she
made her debut as the proud mother Of

She had cause to be proud, too, be-
cause it was as finely assorted family
as any mother could wish.
Among the number were tortoise

LEAVES LUXURY FOR CATS.
Cincinnati Girl Forsakes Residence
Of Aunt and Rents Cottage
for Feline Pets.

preferred the possession and company
of her 10 cats to the home that lad
been hers with her aunt, Mrs. Frances
A. Taylor, in Highland avenue, in the
pretty and aristocratic suburb of Col

home for one on the Groesbeck road.
The love of cats and kittens of Miss
Carroll was not shared by her aunt,
and the result was the declaration by the
latter that her niece must either dis
pense with the cats or take them with her
elsewhere.

Carroll accepted the alternative offered
