FADS

 Everybody has a fad, Some good and some are bad Horses, dogs and auto cars, Poker, drinking at the bars, Running after gay soubrettes, Watching fights and making bets, Playing races just to win, Dabbling in all kinds of sin. Riding, driving, walking too, Glad of anything to do. Flying high in distant lands Organizing muck rake bands smoking, loafing, eating things, Wearing clothes and diamond rings, Hunting for excitement rare On the earth and In the air Any sort of fad will go If It costs a lot of dough. It takes a man of morbid tendencies to wonder what his obituary will be like If the millennium should come tomorrow lot of people would vow that it was just their luck to have bought heavily of stocks on rise the day before.

A Conversation.

The following delightful episode

the time when every one wanted a
ticket. Two delightful feminine Great
ures met by the rail, and exchanged
greetings, naturally. After they talk
ed three minutes they went on like
this, meanwhile the awaiting line get
ting warmer under the collar:
Il saw Henry last night. Goodby."
"Oh, did you? Goodby.
Yes, he sent his love. Goodby."
well, that's nice. GoOdby."
HE wants you to come over some
time Goodby."
"Oh, how delightful. Goodby.'

curing a corresponding readjustment
of the artificial leg to insure perfect
comfort in the wearing of it. So a
man would be likely to have two arti-
fetal legs, the second one to be worn
when the first was undergoing refitting
or repairs.
"And some men have number of
legs. as they would have a number of
suits of clothes and wear them as they
would the clothes at different times.
And an artificial leg is liable to mis-
hap, just as a natural leg is; it may
be run over, just as, perhaps, the or
iginal was, and a man keeps a dupli-
cate so as to be provided against such
mishap or against any other.
Men do about artificial limbs just as
they do about any other artificial aids.
One man wearing spectacles, for in.
he may wear them a long time, until
they swear out, regardless of any
change in his eyes; while another man
may provide himself at the outset with
one or more duplicate pairs for emer-
gencies, and he gets new spectacles
whenever his eyes seem to require
them, and so he accumulates specta-
cles: and it is just SO with artificial
limbs
But with all these demands coming
to us from one source and another and
due to one and another cause, we do
not look for any increased demand due
to the Russc-Japanese New
York Sun.

COREAN WOMAN'S CLOAK.
Former King Decreed That She Wear
It as Mark Of Honor.

The dress of the Corean women is
very quaint. Long voluminous white
cotton dresses reaching to the ankle
show baggy trousers underneath
which, ending in slippers with up
turned toes, give them somewhat the
appearance of Turkish women. Over
the head is thrown long cloak gen.
orally green, fastened under the chin,
the sleeves, through which the arms
are never passed, hanging down over
the shoulders BY this cloak hangs
a tale historical and interesting.
Once upon time a King of Corea
invited the officers of his army to a
banquet in the palace at Seoul. in COM
plete ignorance that a military con-
spiracy, aimed at his throne and life,
was afcot. The conspirators, who were
among the guests. resolved to seize
their opportunity to murder the king
during the progress of the banquet On
entering the palace the officers de-
posted their large military cloaks in
an ante-chamber and took their places
/; in the hall where the feast was spread,
waiting only a signal to fall on and
Stay their hosts.
But number of the women CT Seoul
had become acquainted with the con-
spiracy. Loyal to their monarch and
unable to warn him in time they went
in body to the palace and gained adj
mittance into the ante-chamber. Seiz-
ing the officers cloaks. they entered
the banqueting hall unobserved; some,
stealing noiselessly up behind the Of
ficers as they sat at the feast. flung the
cloaks over their heads and pinioned
them in the folds, while others ran to
the bewildered king, hurriedly warned
him of the plot, and spirited him safe.
ly away before the baffled conspirators
could release themselves from the
grasp of their brave captors. In token
of his gratitude to his loyal female
subjects, the king decreed that in fu-
ture the Corean women should wear
the military cloak thrown over their
heads as a mark of honor.-Capt. Cas-
serly in Macmillan's Magazine.
