A BAD CASE OF VANITY

Vanity holds general dominion over
womankind, and in many cases over
those of the other sex; but an uptown
m!lliner relates a case of the most ag-
gravated form that is almost unparal-
leled. She was arranging her stock
late one afternoon last week, when she
was interrupted by the hurried en-
trance of a woman, who e. citedly in
formed her that she wanted the trim
ming on her hat changed. She said
that it had been trimmed on the wrong
side. 1.-The trimming is on the left side
just where it ought to be-" were the
words of the milliner in reply. some
what puzzled. 1T doesn't make any
difference whether it ought to be in
front or back, or right or left; it's got
to be on the church side" Noting the
gasp of the astonished milliner, she
continued: "Yes: church side. sit
right next to the wall in church, and
I'm not going to have all that trim
ming next the wall. I want it on the
other side for the whole congregation
to see. The trimming was promptly
placed on the Church side" of the hat,
and the customer was satisfied.-Phila-
delphia Record.

A WONDERFUL LOCK

Ninety-three million years is the time
given to unlock safe which is fasten-
ed with the wonderful new lock in
vented in Jamaica. The combination
consists of four sets of twenty-four
letters Of the alphabet, which can be
set to a sentence in most modern lam
guages. When one letter is used in
one alphabet and another in a second
set, and so on, 1t becomes most COM
pllcated matter. Then there is the
initial problem Of which language 1t
has been keyed in, TO be solved by the
man that attempts to open the safe.
Furthermore, instead Of letters the in
ventor, one Neuman Tobias. has EN-
ployed four sets of numerals. Assum-
ing that the lock has been set to a
figure in the number OF 5000, 1903, ,030. .30S,-

A MUCH DEBATED WORD

Many will remember that few years
ago there went on a violent contro-
versy about the word tireless. Thf
discovery had been made that LESS
was suffix which could properly be
appended only to nouns. Hence the
form must be discarded, and we must
all take pains to say untiring. The
duty OF so doing was preached from
scores of professional and newspaper
pulpits. No one seemed to think OF
care for the various other adjectives
similarly formed, and therefore liable
to the similar censure which tney
never received. Hostility was directed
against 1t alone, The actual flaw when
vitiated the arguments against tlreless
it's censors never knew or took into
consideration. This was that the
fancied rule covering the creation OF
such words had practically long ceased
to be operative whenever q new for
nation struck the sense of the users
of language as being desirable.
Unquestionably in our earliest speech
the suffiX less, when employed to form
adjectives, was Joined only with nouns.
But the general sloughing off of nominal
and verbal endings which went on in
later centuries reduced a great pro-
portion of substantives and verbs in
the speech to precisely the same form
In consequence the sense of any funda-
mental distinction between the two
broke down in many ways, in one way
in particular There is nothing easier
in our speech than to convert verb
into noun or a noun into verb. II
is a process which has taken place
constantly in the past, and is liable to
take place at any time in the future,
either at the will or the whim of the
writer or speaker-Harper's Magazine.

FIRE LOSSES RHPuDIATED

The attitude Of the German insurance
companies involved at San Francisco
Is indicated. probably. in commun ca
tion from one Of them to the state In
surance commissioner Of california.
The company in question gives formal
notice of its withdrawal from business
IN this state.
In regard to the settlement OF its
policy liabilities in San Francisco the
company says thaa ito any policy
holder having no other insurance than
In this company, and whose loss does
not exceed $500. they win allow 80 per
cent Of the claim, but that as to all
other claims they will refuse payment"
Only on losses not above $500 will
the German company pay anything,
and in no case will 1t pay more than
$3.50 on a policy. That is virtual re-
pudiation, and the company evidently
so regards It, as indicated by this decla-
ration: "Tn relation 60 suits which
are to be anticipated as the result of
this action, the company is advised by
German counsel that judgments of
state courts will not be recognized in
Germany"
Thousands of San Francisco policy
holders have been awaiting, for many
weeks, final answer to their appeals
for settlement by the foreign COM
panies involved. If the ultimatum of
this German company is a forerunner
of action to be taken by the rest of
it's class, the outlook is indeed gloomy.
The reconstruction of San Francisco
is hampered intellectually by the out
rageous exactions of labor unions and
extortionate prices for building ma
terials If policy holders are to be de-
frauded of a large proportion of the
money due them, in addition to all the
other drawbacks, the prospect will be
truly discouraging.
1t is no wonder, in view of all the
troubles besetting the people of San
Francisco, that the better class are
coming to Los Angeles, in vast num-
bers, to resume business here and
establish homes in the city Of Industrial
peace and prosperity.

HER VERY CONVENIENT LIMP

A woman entered well filled Broad
way surface car. She was reasonably
young, fairly well dressed and good
looking, but she walked with a deep
painful limp. AS she clutched for a
strap half a dozen men arose hastily
and offered her seats. She took the
nearest one and sank into it with a
look of relief. The other men resumed
their seats and the car sped merrily on.
Half mile farther uptown the woman
signaled the conductor to stop, and as
the car slowed down she arose, walked
jauntily out and stepped off the car
with the nimbleness of a school girl.
The man whose seat she had been oc-
cupying looked first amazed, then
sheepsh, as the other passengers began
to grin at him. then Joined in, as be-
comes am American when placed in try

A TREmuLous GHOST STORY

The mysteries of the wire almost
make a book in themselves, for here,
as in every other branch of life, con-
nections are sometimes made with the
supernatural. There was the case of
O'Donnell, who was in charge of a
small station in Wyoming.
ODonnell was train dispatcher at this
cattle station and had lived out there
in a single room for five years. 1t was
a lonely life, for when he had an OPP
portunity to change he refused. The
operators along the line knew him
for a queer fellow. Often when work
was dull he would call some of them
up just for company,
1t was a bit weird to hear him de-
scribe the blizzard that was bowling
around his deserted post especially to
the operator who was enjoying a balmy
day in Southern California. 1t was
Canton of Palo Alto who talked with
him on this eventful night. ODonnell
rang him up at about o'clock in the
morning.
Its getting devilish cold here, Has
showed all day and now 1t is blowing.
What does the thermometer say?
Fine Clear night and all serene y
Say" came the reply, 1--WE been
hearing a voice outside for about an
hour, but 1 can't find any one"
Perhaps it's a lost sheep
Thought of that, but l can't find
anything at all. Sometimes there is a
rapping at the door, too"
"Oh, cut it out, old man. Why don't
you turn in?''
Perhaps / viii. Good night
An hour later O'Donnell opened the
wire again.
SAY Joe, some one has just raped
again"
ITS the wind. How is the storm ?"
Worse. And it wasn't the wind, Joe.
Say, it's getting cold as thunder here,
and the wood has given out"
Now, at 3:15 a local frienght passed
through this station and stopped for
orders When the conductor broke in
the door after striving in vain to raise
the operator he found him frozen to
death This was not remarka ble-it
sometimes happens out there. But
what "ra'' of Palo ALTO would like to
have explained for his oTn peace Of
mind is how, half an hour later, esti-
mated time, he received from this de
serted station this message from
O'Donnell:
II guess | know what the voice was,
Joe. l gues know what the voice was,
joe"
And Joe's questions failed to bring
another response.-Chicago Chronicle.
