Aliens in London's West End.

There were aliens in the West End
as Wei as in the East End. Take the
case of a man who came to London
for a nights pleasure to see what was
going on here. At West End hotel
he was received by cashier who was
a Frenchman, shown to the lift by a
German, and a Swiss took him to
his room and carried mis- luggage. He
ordered his dinner from French
maitre d'hotel, he was served by a
German and the food was cooked by a
French chef. Afterward he entered a
motor car driven by French chauf-
feur, and he visited the italian opera.
The overture at the opera was played
by a foreign band, and the only nan
who looked like an Englishman was
the player of a triangle. After the
opera his supper was served in an
Italian restaurant, and he went home
after smoking a Turkish cigarette

How Paul Jones Countered.

What. Paul Jones the pirate"
must have been the shocked reflection
of many an honest Briton on hearing
that the United States was about to
nav belated honors to the famous re
negade." He himself, by the way,
father neatl ycountered the English
governments denunciation of him as
a pirate. He replied that he had look
ed in the dictionary and found pirate
defined as IAN enemy of mankind" !"
and "as England was then at war
with the whole of America, the great
er part of Europe. and much OF Asia,
not to speak of bit Of Africa, she in
point of fact came as near being the
enemy of mankind as could we'll be
conceived, and that England was
therefore the pirate, and not Paul

Miscellaneous Marriages.

No one knows what type will be the
best for survival in an unknown future
environment We often see the eS-
tinction of families OF parents whom
any physician would have pronounced
ideal, but their children lacked resist
ance to the invasion Of pathogenic Or
ganisms or there was some other de-
feet which made them easy targets for
climatic causes Of physical decay.
On the ether hand, We quite often
find that parents below par physically
have fine families. The curious unions
which take pace must be the result OF
law such as we find in every bio!o5ic
phenomenon. Man has the same iHr
stinct found in lower animals to select
a mate who is more or less different
from himself.
Should like types mate, their COM
mon characteristics may be so exag-
gerated as to be harmful and the line
perish. 1t is an instinct of those of
great intelligence to marry those Of
less than the average, for the offspring
revert to the better average. 1t is
very evident that if we try to improve
the race Intellectually by the marriage
of like types we will violate the natural
law upon which our existence is based.
Artificial matrimonial selection has
been tried, though the results were dis
astrous.-American Medicine.

Lin1crie Shirts and Hats.

Every single penny that can be saved
out of the dress allowance, whether 1t
be of the smallest or largest descrlr-
ton, should be devoted now to the pur-
chase of lingerie shirts. Nothing IS
going to be more fashionable in the
immediate future than white embrolc-
cred blouses, very simply made SO that
the establishment that is given them
is not overshadowed at all by the cx-
travagance CT the manner in which
they are constructed. Shirts one mass
of broderie Anglaise are modish, and
shirts covered with medallions OF
raised embroidery with eyelet holes
here and there are equally fashionable.
They look delightful with tailor
made coat and skirt costume, and as
they wash like rag they are not
really extrayagantly costly purchases.
Many of these lovely shirts are made
in Ireland, where so much white wear
is embroidered.

Buttons for Ornaments.

Buttons in every conceivable shape
and style are used for ornaments this
season, small and large; glass, bone
and all kinds Of metal; the simple, uI-
adorned, old-fashion mother-of-
pearl kind and the latest designs,
made with an amethyst centre sur
rounded by a circle of rhinestones that
look more like brooches than buttons
There are gun metal buttons, heavy
looking, and this effect is heightened
by the use of three screws inserted in
the outer edge. Those made in red
and bronze metals look like Oriental
pins and are most attractive. But
tons, like the rest Of trimming used
this year, are made to match the many
shades of cloth in use. Many kinds
are fashioned Of two colors to match
striped and checked materials or to
harmonic with the cloth and the
braid or silk used for trimming. A
particularly pretty pattern in such de-
sign was made Of brown cloth suit
trimmed with white braid. With
white gowns having red flower de-
sign in the background round imita-
ton coral buttons about as large as a
25-cent piece finished with rim OF
rhinestones make enough decoration
for an afternoon dress.
Similar amethyst buttons look we'll
when there is a lavender or blue pat
tern in the sheer summer material.
Perhaps the black glass buttons with
a ring of sparkling rhinestones are
more admired than any other ct these
new kinds.-Washingt Times.

How the Piomies Shave.

The latest tonsorial fashion to be
imported into this country is the eye
lash shave. This may be seen at the
Hippodrome when the pigmies are
performing their toilet. After max
ing their usual protest against being
compelled to bathe in warm water, the
pigmies, instead of shaving the stub
bic of beard from their faces as white
men do, cut off their eyelashes with
the razor-like edges of their tiny ar
rows. It is a painful operation to
watch, but it is said to become fascin-
ating. If a visitor shows too much in
terest in the proceeding, one of the
pigmies will courteously offer in pan
tomime to give him an eyelash shave.

She is a college girl. Twelve years
ago she was a reporter on morning
;aper, covering the board of education,
wcmen's clubs and so on, wearing
shabby clothes and earning, | suppose,
SIS week. She was too clever, far
too clever, fer such work, yet she STUCK
to her paper for two years and never
an inch did she advance.
She had always liked dressmaking.
She had always had good taste. Now,
in despair, she took course in cutting
and fitting, and she interested in her
idea one of the rich women whom she
had met in her news-gathering among
the clubs.
With this woman's help she opened
a small dressmaking shop in a good
reighborhood. Success seemed hard to
achieve at first, but she liked the work
and she got in time the patronage Of
three or four OF our best-dressed young
matrors After that she advanced
rapidly. Today she is a woman to be
envied by most nlen.
She built in 1902 house that cost
$4,000. She lives at the rate of S12,-

STRONGER THAN MEAT.
A Judges Opinion OF Grape-Nufa.

gentleman who has acquired 5u-
dicial turn of mind from experience on
the bench out in the Sunfower State,
writes q carefully considered opinion
as to the value Of Grape-Nuts as food.
He says:
For the past five years Grape-Nuts
has been O prominent feature In our
bill Of fare.
The crisp food with the delicious,
nutty flavor has become an indispensa-
bic necessity in my family's everyday
life.
1T has proved to be most healthful
and beneficial. and has enabled US TO
practically abolish pastry and pies
from our table, for the children prefer
Grape-Nuts and do not crave rich and
unwholesome food.

physical condition-as preventive OF
disease it is beyond value. l have oeen
particularly impressed by the benenciaI
effects of Grape-Nuts when used Dy
Indies who are troubled with race
blemishes, skin eruptions, etc. It
clears up the complexion wonderfully.
LAS to its nutritive qualities, my e1-
defence is that one small dish OF Grape
Nuts is superior to a pound OF meat
for breakfast, which is an important
consideration for any one. 1t satisfies
the appetite and strengthens the pow
er of resisting fatigue, while its use in

Making Child Linsuists.

A new method of teaching lam
guages by interchanging children be-
tween different countries is being
popularized by an institution which
has its headquarters In Paris.
Sir Oliver Lodge has adopted this
method OF teaching his children
French by exchanging them for linn
tied period with members Of the fam
lily of NJ. Toni-Mathieu, the director
of the society.
In it's first year the society has
been the means Of exchanging no
fewer than eighty-eight children and
young people between families in
England, France, Germany and Aus
tria.-London Mail.

Her New Pose.

Most girls change their manners
along with their clothes, and now that
lingerie gowns and baby hats have
come into vogue an ingenuous1ess o1
demeanCr is affected by many OF the
wearers thereof. The tall, athletic
maiden, who has taken to nusiines, no
longer defes conventions or glories III
being called "a jolly good sort, but
is nesting closely under her chapsr-
ones sheltering wing. Tan, too, which
was acquired by hours spent under a
broiling sun. seems to have lost It's
charm, for only the most delicate OF
skins appears to advantage against
light, fluffy attire. Some girls, follow
ing the example Of leader, wear
their wells even while playing tennis.
There may be lack of genuineness IN
this departure, but it has the charm
OF novelty.

Fashion Notes.

Sheer gauze undershirts for small
tots have a trimming of narrow val
enciennes lace around neck and arm
holes.
Blue and brown wells are worn with
blue and brown hats; for light or
white hats, white wells with black dots
look best.
The newest fad in colored stockings
is to have the stockings match the
dress (unless the dress is white) while
the shoes are black.
Almost every small child wears
socks, those Of tan and white to
match the shoes, or white to wear with
black shoes, being the most popular.
There's a new chiffon automobile
veil out which comes in all the pale
colors and in white. 1t is embroidered
with big and little dots in the same
shade as the veil itself-and is gath
cred on to ring.
Every child, who can, is wearing all
white; and the inexpensive canvas
shoes-strong and braced to keep them
in shape-have made it possible to
carry out this white in the matter OF
shoes as we'll, even if you're not bless
ed with a robust purse.
To keep the present craze for tan
shoes something new in stockings
comes out every little while. The new
est are shadow stripes in tsns and old
blues with bands Of color running
around intwo shades, just little diff
ferent. Both blue and tan are worn
with tan shoes.

Habit of FroWninq.

Did you ever notice the kinds and
varieties of frowns you meet in short
walk on the streets? Perhaps it is
the goth century expression developing
from the general hurry of the day.
However, no matter how impatient
people may be to get ahead Of time, it
never pays to hurry, inside or to walk
with ones eyebrows. The majority OF
people nowadays hurry, hurry, hurry
along the streets, their brows tied up
in little tight knots of strenuous atten-
ton of some sort. 1t is refreshing to
see any one move with quick energy;
an alive and active gait is always to
be commended, but why not be cheer
full about it. 1t doesn't help one up
the elevated steps a bit faster to
frown about it. 1t doesn't make sales
women hurry CT street cars stop or the
weather cooler or anything. 1t only
makes one look ones worst and grow
old before ones time.
Whenever 1 see the fretful young
women of luxury frowning over her
shopping I think how I should like to
tell hew she's really harming others.
Or should like to show her the ac-
count in the paper of the poor janitress
mother who worked fer SIS week and
kept herself and four babies on sugar
water and crackers until she tainted
one day and was taken to the hospi-
tai. Not that I should want that to
make her trown more. Maybe she
would do something for the babies,
and then feel happy, and make others
happy, by smiling instead of frowning.
Frowning is habit. l often wonder
how astonished some Of the passers-
by on the street would be were we to
suddenly stop them and say, What Is
the matter? What are you frowning
lbout?" l am sure half of them are
not really conscious of it. Then some
time they will discover deep wrinkles
in their brows that are there to stay,
and they'll long in vain to be rid Of
them.
Mrs. Wriggs' advice never to feel
sorry for ones self IS well worth while.
1t never wins sympathy. To be cheer
full, and even if not to look cheerful, is
surely duty we all owe to each other.

MUTlNY WHILE BATTLE WAS ON.
Reason Why Two Of Rojestvensky's
Fleet Wouldn't Fight.

According to the St. Petersburg
correspondent of La Liberte Admiral
Rojestvensly, in his report on the
battle of Tsu Shima Straits, which
resulted in the practical annihilation
of his feet, says that his ships were
bad. They had been not only hastily
but dishonesty built.
The thickness of their armor did
not agree with the official figures in
the case OF any of the vessels. More
over, it was of inferior quality. The
shells were bad. None OF the ships
attained the guaranteed speed. The
engines and boilers were poor and al
ways requiring repairs.
Two-tAirds of the crews, including
those of Vice-Admiral Niebogatof's
squadron, were incapable. The gun
ners were ignorant of the elementary
laws of firing. A mutiny occurred
while that feet was at Madagascar
and fourteen men were put to death.
Admiral Rojestvensky had to train
guns on two of his ships, the Admiral
Seniavin and Admiral Aprazine, coast
defense vessels, to restore order. The
crews had decided secretly to sur
render to the enemy. This was dis
covered too late. There was another
mut!ny in Vice-Admiral Niebogatoff's
squadron near Formosa, and Admiral
Rojestvensky had difficulty in prevent
ing the mutineers from ssizing the
greater part of the squadron.
Admiral Rojestvensky saw from the
outset Of the battle that the Admiral
Seniavin and Admiral Apraxine were
not fighting and were ignoring orders.
They fired only when he sent torpedo
boats to them and threatened to sink
them unless they obeyed.
If Admiral Rojestvensky had not
been wounded at the beginning OF
the battle the result might have been
different. Almost simultaneously with
his removal to a torpedo boat Admiral
Enquist disappeared, Admiral Foel-
kersahm was killed and Admiral Me
bogatoff, who was unpopular with the
sailors, was obliged to take command.
Then the rout began. Admiral
Niebogatoffs orders were ignored.
It was every one for himself. The
crews of some of the ships threatened
to kill their officers unless they sur
rendered.
Admiral Rojestvensl:y confirms
what is generally known of the shat
tering and scattering Of his fleet. He
describes the attempt to blow up the
Orel after she had surrendered. He
says that a party of engineers and
young officers were surprised by the
Japanese just as they were about to
fire the ships magazine. A struggle
followed. If the Orels crew had sup
Aorted their officers the conspiracy
would have succeeded, but none of
the men stirred.
The admiral confirms the reports al
ready published that he relied on the
fog to enable him to get through the
straits, but says it lifted two hours too
soon.
