NOW COMES THE MOTOR BOOT.
Threatens the Popularity of the
Motor Bicycle, the Automobile
and the Motor Boat.

Gay Paris has just been startled by
the apparition of a gigantic person
"whizzing along the Champs Elysees
at the rate of twenty-five miles an
hour" He was not on horseback. ac-
cording to the Washington Post,
neither was he in an auto. He simply
stood up straight on his own legs, and
the only unusual thing connected with
his appearance consisted of a pair of
immense boots. He didn't walk. He
never lifted either foot from the pave
ment. He simply carried himself erect
and fairly flew"
Subsequent inquiry developed sew.
eral interesting facts. Fastened to the
soles of the tall strangers boots were
tiny automobiles. with rubber tires
eight inches in diameter. and in a belt
worn about his waist were "accumu-
lators" of one and a quarter horse
power, connected with the boots by
means of wires. Thus equipped, the
mysterious person sped along the ave
nue. at the speed above stated, exciting
wonder, admiration and alarm in about
equal proportions.
Seven-Lcague Boots Not In Ii.
In other words. this astonishing but
highly uncomfortable gentleman-Con-
stantini is his name-appears to have
feared motor boot" AS a matter of
fact his device will enable the indi-
vidual citizen to acquire pair Of boots
by means of which he can chase along
the boulevards of Paris or any other
capital at frightful rate of speed. and
as long as the 'accumulators" hold out.
make anywhere from SIX to thirty
miles an hour. 1t is the muchdesired
consummation-the apparatus whereby
we may pay hundred calls during any
afternoon, evade policemen, street
cars, footpads, the carriages OF the
aristocracy, and the opportunities of
the very feetest newspaper reporter.
No more need to squander money on
lnight-hawks. herdics, "copays," or even
broughams and victorias. Put on your

cigarette, push the button, and away
you 60 The time is foreseen when
our greatest statesmen will provide

Only one misgiving is nourished.

dear old Uncle Joe" Cannon, or even
Vice-President Fairbanks himself (the
President, it Is understood, will stick
to the horse), should put on the motor
boots and start upon a swift es-
cape; suppose, moreover, that i'm his
agitation he should turn on the mini
mum speed for one foot and the maxi
mum speed for the other, what would
be the condition of our priceless states
man after about two blocks Of that
weird form of travel?
Let IT pass. No need TO toss upon a
sleepless pillow while as yet the de-
tails are In camera. The motor boot,
like other great agencies of progress,
has come to stay. We can wait while
our betters try II on.

table appointments characterize her
entertainments and the most promi-
nent people in the country are her
guests during the social season.
This distinguished hostess long ago
became a convert to the vegetarian
system and through book which she
wrote on the subject, THE Aristocracy
of Health" held to her contention that
meat is unnecessary not only to diges-
ton, but to the palate. The boob
aroused much discussion and during a
recent health congress in Washington
Mrs. Henderson arranged one of her
celebrated vegetarian dinners in order
to prove the strength of her theory
Some amusement was caused by the
declination of a prominent politician
who has a reputation for liking good
dinners, but who was afraid that with
out meat his evening meal would be
spoiled.
Mrs. Henderson's arrangements for
the dinner were unique

The farmer of to-day finds an en-

Lead Him Back.

Since he became Indian Commits
sioner Mr.. Leupp has appointed in sew
eral of the schools a teacher who SUI
pervises the study of native music.
The duties of this teacher are to lead
the Indian back to the sublime and
patriotic thoughts of his forefathers.
The Indian is natural warrior, a
natural logician, a natural artist. We
have room for all three in our highly
organized social system. Let us not
make the mistake, in the process Of alb
sorbing them. Of washing out Of them
whatever is distinctly Indian. Our alb

The Red Man is Original and Should

The Indian should be an Indian and
nothing more.
So says Commissioner of Indian AT
fairs Francis l.. Leupp in his annual
report. He does not believe the Indian
should be educated for higher profess
sions in the great colleges of the coun-
try to the neglect of his sound and
practical learning.
His report is, beyond any doubt, the
most interesting one ever received
from the Indian Office.
