Clothes and Conduct.

Every man and every woman feels
the influence of clothes and appearance
upon conduct. You have heard of the
lonely man in the Australian bush who
always put on evening dress for din
ner so that he might remember he was
gentleman. Addison could not write
his best unless he was well dressed.
Put a naughty girl into her best Sun
day clothes, and she will behave quite
nicely; put blackguard into khaki,
and he Will be hero; put an omnibus
conductor into uniform, and he will
live up TO his clothes. Indeed, in a
millennium Of free clothes of the latest
fashion we shall all be archangels.-

 "This Mrs. Potiphar, who was the Gas sic Chadwick of her time, pursued him with offers to sell a million dollars worth of stock In some wildcat factory scheme, but he crossed his fingers and looked the wrong in the eye, cool and with clear head, and refused to be hyrnotized.

BAD MAN
From Arizona Is Impressed By the

 The pilgrim from the Mojave Desert drew from his pistol pocket a Berean Les son Leaf and medltatively lighted corn husk cigarette with It.
 You see," he continued, "it was this away In the forenoon I attends another Babtis' gospel joint up on Fift' av-noo, not thinkin' any harm, and there l am shocked, somethin' fierce. at hearin' the pastor wade into the ladies of New York.
 "I then sashays down the grand canyon and follers the crowd into the Fift Avnoo Hardshell Baptis' church and sets down with bunch of sad-eyed men in Prince Albert coats in big room.

Then the good young billonaire goes on to say as how one member Of his Sunday school class has basely deceived hlm, and, like the sheep, has gone astray. I had the greatest confidence in his rec titude, believin alwuz that he had as good chance to get through the peraiy gates as my father has of gittin' through the eye of needle or a camel or some thin but today he comes to me and con- fesses humble that he has basely deceived me.

LUCK SIGNS.
Certain omens Which Bring Good or
 Bad Fortune.

From the Southern Workman
 It is bad luck to tell dream before daybreak
 If you dream about money in small pieces it is a sign of trouble; if in dollars or large pieces it is good luck The small CT the change the greater the trouble.
 To dream of fruit out of it's season is sign that you will have a quarrel without reason.
 To dream of seing one in white is a sign of death.
 To dream of pork means death. to dream of beef means a negro death
 Bad luck results from doing the fol- lowing things:
 To look into well at 12 O clock in the day.
 For two persons walking together to go on opposite sides of the same tree. It cuts their mothers grave, or divides their friendship.
 To look in a cross-eyed persons eye.
 To start anywhere and turn back. If you turn back make a cross-mark; this changes the luck.
 For two or more persons to look in a glass at the same time.
 To sneeze while eating is a sign of death. If male sneezes, a female will die, and vice versa.
 To sweep dirt out of the door after sundown. You are sweeping out some of the family
 To walk around with one shoe on. You will have a hard time in life.
 To shave at night. They shave you at night when you die.
 To sew anything while you are wearing it. Some one will tell a lie on you. To l,..I1 cnr1 1at hi O in your mouth.
 To shake hands across a fence.
 To break bread in another person s hand. You will fall out.
 If you are going fishing and want good luck take an old shoe and just as you are leaving the house throw it behind you and you will have good luck.
