Cost Of Courtship.
From the Atlanta Journal.

From the Atlanta Journal.
In the great southwest courtship Is
counted costly luxury. A Tilted swain is
suing the fair lady for 10000. charging
s. 600 to courtship expenses The wooing
period extended over only a little more than
four months, and the disappointed lover
itemizes his waste of time at 81 day,
aside from presents and other expenses.
At the same time Cleveland girl is suing
a man for $50, OO0 charging that he courted
her for three years and then proved faith
less.
OF course. courtship is not coldly a mere
matter of dollars. Wasted affection must
be put into the account. A mans love for
a maid and a maids love for a man have
distinct values-at least until marriage.
After that. as divorce records so clearly
indicate, the value is frequently found to
be fictitious.
New Jersey has just supplied some sta
tistics that may help somewhat in the solu-
ton of the question of legitimate court
ship expenses. In that state. where the
warmth, figures have been collected show
ing that an ordinary courtship might cost
as little as 500. The average cost Is only
So and TIE average duration Is eighteen
months Here is practical proof that court
ships are not necessarily costly. 1t is as
cheap to get married as it Is to get d.
vorced. man can get wife for less
money than a good suit of clothes. Is it
any great wonder that many change the
one almost as often as they do the other?

women's Hats From Wood shavings.

From the Scientific American.
II is not generally known that many OF
the handsomest summer hats worn by the
ladies of this country are literally made
from wood "shavings." The finest exam
pies of this industry are produced in Japan.
these wooden ribbons appearing in many
FORMS some of which have almost the DEL
icacy and sheen Of satin, while others re-
semble soft and dainty crepes Only about
Is per cent of the chip Is exported in The
form of wood ribbons, the remainder being
worked into what is commercially known
as chip braid, and which Is employed in
the same manner as straw braid, that is.
for hats, basketry and other fancy articles.
The exports in a single year from Japan
have amounted to over 1000. the United
States being a large buyer The trade IS
steadily increasing, with a constantly grow
ing demand, as the industry is compare
lively new. While willow is considerably
used in Germany. the Japanese manufac
turers employ European poplar, spruce,
Chinese cypress. cherry, buckeye. paulonia,
false hickory and some other kinds of wood
The chip is produced by planning with spe-
cial tools, the shavings being about fifteei
inches long and one and half in width.
The leading forms are known as crepe. thin
crepe, striped crepe. scaly crepe. crimped
crepe, network crepe, relief figures, pushed

readily, and Is so thin and flexible that
daintiest effects in millinery goods can be
secured,

MINISTRIES ENTERTAIN.
Holy Name Society Gives Pleasing
Program.

The Holy Name Society Minstrels gave
very creditable performance Monday night
at st. Joseph's Hall, I'd street northeast
between c and D streets. The audience,
which taxed the capacity of the hall, evil
denced its appreciation of the efforts of the
young men by frequent demands for en-
cores. The end men. Messrs. Phil McCar-
ten, D. E. Connell, John German and R. A.
Curtin, won favor with their comic songs
and told some new stories and jokes The
soloists were applauded, the audience ap-
parently taking most kindly to the singing
of Paul Hines and Pete Becker, the latter
making quite hit with his song. I'm

Preventing Pneumonia.
From the Pittsburg Gazette


The increase in the number of pneu-
monia cases has led to the appointment of
a commission to study it's prevalence in
New York city and report on the means
that should be devised for its control AS
compared with consumption, which has
been slowly decreasing, pneumonia has in
creased by bounds, until in such city
as New York 1t has nearly doubled in thirty
years. Similar progress is noticeable in
Chicago as well as other large cities While
the cause of pneumonia is not as specific
ally defined as that of typhoid fever,
which can only follow the introduction of
germs into the alimentary canal, it is
recognized as a disease that may be COM
municated. hence it is classed by some
boards of health as one that is "notifiable'
AS in the case Of most maladies, pneu-
monia finds lodging in debilitated system
which has not the power to resist its in
roads. But another cause besides physical
of our cities, where humidity is lacking
mosphere where the humidity averages
about 20 per cent, when it might have been
as low as 80 in the house or office. This
sudden change is a shock to the mucous
membranes and induces pneumonia. Thus
1t is argued that room where the tenn
perature stands at IS degrees and the hui
nudity at 6 per cent Is safer and more
comfortable than one where the tempera-
ture is q degrees and the humidity IS per
cent. Experts claim that attention to this
one question of moist air in buildings will
do much to reduce the prevalence of pneu-
m0nia.

SAYS MABEL PAGE WROTE TT.
Col. Hay OF Washington Testifies as
to the Morton Note

"A dispatch from East Cambridge, Mass.
last night says: While experts testified today
that the Morton note found beside the body
OF Mabel Page as she lay slain in her home
at weston was not written by Charles
Iucker, who is on trial for the murder,
there was sudden stir and great whis-
pering among the women who crowded the
court.
Col Edwin B. Hay of Washington, D. c.,
writing expert, resumed His testimony
Il have examined the handwriting of the
note left by Mabel Page and other writing
of hers, and have made comparisons with
the Morton address. After a careful analy-
SIS L have formed the opinion that Mabel
Page wrote the note found on the table and
also the Morton address," said Colonel
Hay.
What writing of Miss Pages have you
Il have examined the handwriting on
the original copy of her last will, which 1
saw at the registry of deeds.''
The will was admitted as standard of
the writing of Miss Page. Photographs of
the document were passed to the jury.
Mabel Page was a good writer. She
wrote hand with many characteristics of
woman. She thought faster than she
wrote. That accounts for the overwriting
in her note shown in the II of the Morton
address In her note the F. in Found is
written over, and it appears that she start
ed to write an H. evidently intending to
write Hour
Look at the will. That was written
when she was calm and deliberate. no occa-
sion for any haste. Yet you find the same
overwriting and underwriting in the will
that appears in the Morton address and
the note left by Mabel Page.
There is no doubt Mabel Page wrote the
note; there Is no doubt Mabel Page wrote
the will. In my opinion there is no doubt
Mabel Page wrote the j. L. Morton adj
dress found IN the Page house." said Colo
mel Hay impressively.
The dispatch says further that ''for the
greater part of the day the expert in the
witness chair was not only yogi of PEN
manship, but a lawyer as well, and the
duel that ensued between Col Edwin B.
Hay and Attorney General Parker was as
vivid a chapter as has yet been told in the
drama of this murder charge"
