The Matter With Smith.

A man in Chicago has 500 cents
which he can't spend, can't sell, can't
melt up, can't give away, and which
he can't even keep. At least if he does
any of these things he is breaking the
Jaw, and he hasn't figured out the
answer yet. He is proprietor of a num-
Der of penny-in-the-slot machines, and
the 500 pennies are the mutilated coin
that the machines have accepted in
six months without his consent. He
can't sell them for junk copper because
they are bad money, he can't pass them
off as pennies for the reason that they
are bad pennies and that might cause
him to pass some time in Jail, and II
he keeps them he is liable for carrying
bad money. This was the opinion OF
the United States District Attorney,
and the Assistant United States At
torney-General, who was in Chicago
looking after the Beef Trust, tried his
hand ct the puzzle without better re-
suits. Technically, the owner OF the
pennies, n Smith, violates the law
whatever he does with Thanksgiving

THE STAGE GERMAN.
The Teutontc Comedian Rapidly Giving
Place to Other Dialects.

The Teutontc Comedian Rapidly Giving
Place to Other Dialects.
Harris Morris, who was considered
the original German dialect comedian,
was only fifty years old when he died,
but he lived long enough to outlive the
vogue Of that stage character. AS a
funmaker the stage German has lasted
less than a generation. He first ap-
peared in 1872. He had his greatest
popularity about the time that the Teu-
tcnic migration reached food tide and
began rapidly to recede. The old Ger
mania with its farces Of German-Amer-
lean life is no more, and the type per-
sists only as a survival in serious plays
like 1.-The Music Master"
The German dialect comedian with
his shoe brush mustache, his red vest,
his pneumatic abdomen and his unman-
ageable yodel embodies a view of the
Teutonic character. that goes back to
American Revolutionary times. He Is
an amiable Hessian. If there ever were
thick-headed, stupidity jocular Germans
they disappeared from view about the
time of German %unifcation; just a year
afterward they r%eappeared in this coun-
try as a comedy type that libeled Teu-
tonic intelligence as much as the stage
Irishman libeled Celtic beauty.
We are destined to go through these
various exotic brands Of humor in
turn; the stage Hebrew has already
taken his place beside the Irishman
and the German, and some day we may
find the stage Italian just as funny as
his predecessors. But it will mark an
advance from a colonial and transit
tional period when farcical humor Is
evoked, as George AIDE evokes it, by
depicting native, rather than trans
planted, types.-New York Mail.

"AliCe Blue"

Miss Roosevelt is credited with hav-
ing fine taste in dress and an unerring
eye for color, and it is now given out
that it was she who selected the color
and quality of tie much-talked-of inau-
guration gown worn by Mrs. Roosevelt.
The story is this. says the Springfield
Republican: During the Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition Miss Roosevelt Wis
tied thc American silk exhibit, and
among the fabrics which showed the
best America could do she noted a pc
culiar shade of blue, which pleased her
so much that she begged a sample. To
give samples was. Of course, a thing
not heard of. but the agents would not
deny the daughter of the President.
MIS-. Roosevelt IA equally well
pleased and chose it as the color Of her
Inauguration gown, combining it with
gold. Across the silk at regular inter-
walls is a flight Of birds done in n Of
the great Paterson mills, New Jersey,
and the color has been named, in COM
pliment to Miss Roosevelt, Alice blue"
and is to be tine fashionable color Of
the season. 1t somewhat resembles
gobelin blue. but is much softer, i'll
Ginning rather toward the gray blues.

otis Me, Jesus.n

At a religious meeting in the south
Of London a timid little girl wanted
to come to Jesus, and she said to the
gentleman conducting the meeting,
will you pray for me in the morning,
please? But do not mention my
name"
In the meeting when every head was
bowed this gentleman prayed, 20
Lord, there is q little girl who does not
want her name known, but Thou dost
know her, save her precious soul,
Lord"
There was a perfect silence, then
away in the back of the meeting a
little voice said, please, it's me, Jesus
its mel"

The Modern Jester.

"a certain class of insane persons
are remarkable for their wit and apt
retorts," said DR.. George T. Winston,
the criminologist. The court fools
whom monarchs and great mobiles used
to employ were all of this insane class.
1t would be possible now, if the court
fool fashion were to be revived again,
to get from our asyluIns excellent jest

II have in mind a young man in a
Boston retreat who would make a good
lester for any monarch. This young
man keeps his companions continually
amused. The first time I saw him he
sat on the floor swearing bitterly.

A Roundabout q

Circular advertising is a roundabout
way of trying to obtain the publicity
which can be secured more promptly
effectively and cheaply by newspaper
advertising. 1t is a tax upon the PEG
pie, because it overloads the mafis
with useless matter that does not ps1
for its transportation, and a tax upon
the patience and the servants, because
it is thrown away unread. In theif

Constructive Aid Needed.

1t requires very little ability, or none
at all, to see flaws or to find fault. A
measure of knowledge and Of power
is essential to perceive what is COM
mendable OF to build up what is Of
value. This is why there are so many
more who are ready to point out mis-
takes in the Bible, or in a system of
human government, or in the crude
efforts of a schoolboy, than there are
who car see and show the points
worthieSt of commentator in the
thing under examination. But an
ounce Of constructive aid is worth
many tons Of destructive criticism.

With Stitched Pleats.

Most of the shirt waists are fur
nished with stitched pleats running far
out over the shoulders, to give the
figure breadth. There is hardly a sug-
gestion of b blouse effect at the waist.
Sleeves are usually full, with narrow
cuff bands and often high, fitted cuffs.
These are lovely in the thin lingerie
blouses, as they furnish a surface for
exquisite embroideries and needlework.

The Chinese are very fond of duck

In the immediate neighborhood Of the
little town Of Klingmau, in Switzer-

assortment Of 800 gold coins. Most OF
the coins are of the years from 1902

was buried at the time of the Spanish
wal of succession. The gold value of
the coins is estimated at $4,000, and
the numismatic value at over 100000
francs.
Common clear glass, left exposed in
certain desert regions of the earth, soon
changes greatly in appearance and ac-
auires color, sometimes rose purple and
sometimes amethyst. This change has
been attributed by some observers to
alkaline soils, but others maintain that
such changes occur where there is no
alkali, and that it must be due to the
great activity of the actinic rays OF
the sun where the atmosphere is very
clear.
