breaches Simple Life.

Solomon Neva, the prophet Of the
simple life in It's EXTREMIST sense, has
arrived in Paris 10 the hope Of inter
esting prominent persons In his
scheme of founding a sanitarium in
the mountains where he would have
only children as his patients and
would bring them up to live purely
natural life. Neva lives on raw fruit
and vegetables, never touching eggs,
milk or butter or meat of any kind.
He does not even drink water and
battles only about once a year, and
he believes that a daily rubbing down
with a towel is sufficient to keep the
body clean. He has curious history,
having once been in the Dutch con-
sular service. He lost fortune Of
100000 francs in an unsuccessful cof-
fee plantation in Java and since then
has gone about the world In strange
garb, preaching his new doctrine.

HOW CHINESE WOMEN "cALL"
Elaborate Ceremony Prescribed by
Rules Of Fashion and Estab-
lished Etiquette.

The Chinese woman has a calling
substitute called a carde de visite.
1t is really q sort of social informa-
ton bureau, as it conveys to the re-
cipient the name of the caller, her
address and the day on which she
is to be found In her own house be-
yond question. II l should call on
Monday, when her card" read
Thursday" she would send down
word by the maid, who would report
to the housekeeper, generally a ne
gro, that she was mot at home" You
will remember how the missionaries
impressed upon us that truth" was
the corner stone of Christianity. But

Now these calling cards" could be
mailed or sent by a servant just as
we'll, for the visiting lady does not
go in. She rides up to the house In
state, the footman opens the door, re-
ceives a card delivers it to the serv-
ant, and they proceed to the next
house on the list, which the driver
carries. Now the curious part OF
this ceremony is that the party called
upon does not know that the lady
called in person, and there is conse-
quently no objection to the caller put

HELPS IN PRACTICAL WAY.
Wife Of City Dentist Makes All of Tiny
Napkins Husband Uses in
His Work.

There Is a city dentist whose wife
helps him in a wholly feminine and
money-saving way. The makes all the
tiny linen napkins he uses to tuck
into the mouths or collars of his pa
tents, and makes them all by hand.
Not a bit of machine stitching is
ever seen in his Office linen, and there
is an odd reason for it. She did the
first lot soon after her marriage,
when she knew little of sewing, and
could not run a machine. By the
time she had finished four dozen she
had become a fine sewer, and then
disdained to use the machine at all.
That was some years ago, and now
her husband could we'll afford to hire
the work done, but she still clings
to the idea of helping him, and every
summer when other women on the
hotel piazza bring out their en-
broidery and fancy work she pro-
duces her tiny squares of linen and
hens away. Last summer she made
IL dozen.

GIVES BARRY HONOR
REAL FATHER OF THE NAVY,
SAYS DRIsCoLL,
Though Facts Seem to Bear Out This
Assertion, John Paul Jones Will
Always Be American
Naval Hero.

II anyone had to answer the Ques-
ton right off the bat" who was
father of the American navy" no
doubt the reply would be John Paul
Jones. No other man who ever COM
manded ship in the navy has been
accorded such honors as has been paid
to this daring Scotchman who cast
his lot with the American colonies and
fought the English with so much gal
lantry. These honors are such as
should be paid to the greatest Ameri'
can sailor, and no doubt many of our
people believe that John Paul Jones
is the greatest of our sailors. Repre-
sentative Driscoll, Of New York, rises
to dispute this assumption. He says
that the honor of being the father of
the American navy is due Commodore
Barry" After many years the United
States has determined to honor this Of
ficer and has provided that monu-
ment shall be erected to him. Dris-
coll in a congressional address has eu-
logized Barry and placed him on a
pinnacle above that Of Jones. Dris-
coll has this to say to prove that
Barry is entitled to the first place in
our naval annals.
"At the breaking out of the war Of
the revolution he was master OF the
Black Prince, the finest merchant ship
in America. She was purchased by
the first congress, armored for war,
and made the first battleship OF the
first fleet, under the first commodore,
and named the Alfred, after the father
of the English navy. He won the first
naval victory Of the war in the con-
tinental service, and returned the first
prize captured from the enemy in COM
mand of the Lexington, which was
named after the first battle Of the rev.
olution, and was the first ship that
bore the continental flag to victory on
the ocean. During the last three years
of the revolution he was che first Off
Ger of the navy He fought the last
battle of the war in command OF the
Alliance, the last and best ship of the
continental navy. He was appointed
In 1894, and continued first In com
mand until he died, In 1903"
He points out that John Paul Jones
after his victory over the Scraps
never returned to this country, but re-
NAMED in Europe and received high
honors from France and Russia, while
Barry remained In the service from
the beginning to the end. OF course,
the record Of Barry is splendid and
he is entitled to all the honors that
can be paid him, but there is some
thing in the record of John Paul Jones
that appeals to every person with
blood in his veins. He was man that
ibid things" and no matter what 9TH
ers may have done the brilliancy OF
his exploits were such as to excite the
admiration OF the American people
for all time.

plates in Demand.

Nearly 200 witnesses, representing
81 states, appeared in the United
States district court at Baltimore to
testify for the government at the trial
of Or" Theodore White, charged
with using the mails to defraud. There
were present II pretty typewriters,
who were kept busy by Or" White
in conducting the correspondence Incl
dent to the immense business he had
established concocting love powders,
manufacturing magic breastplates and
dispensing diplomas comforting the
degree Of Phi. D. on the graduates,
who had established their title to that
degree by paying for Or" Whites
book, Blessings For All Mankind"
The tables in the court room were
covered with exhibits, a painful Of the
love powder and some specimens of
the breastplates being displayed there.
Assistant District Attorney Soper
made the opening statement to the
jury. He said that DR." Whites
spiritualistic and hypnotic mail order
business had attained such proper
lions that his postage bill amounted
to $1,000 a month, and that he had
been obliged to purchase horse and
wagon to take his mail from the post
Office.
Mr.. Soper said that Or" White
had made a fortune during the three
years he spent in the business. you
may get some idea Of the magnitude
Of it." said Mr.. Soper, when I tell
you that in one month 2,400 people,
from Maine to California, each sent
this man a dollar and a lock of hair
in order TO obtain a life reading And
every reading was identical. The
same reading was sent to every per.
son who sent dollar, and husband
and his wife both of whom sent to
Dr. White for readings, were very
much disguised when they each re.
ceived the same reading"
Among the spiritualistic Stunts"
described in one Of the pamphlets
read by Mr.. Soper was the following:
place an egg before the fire and
watch it without moving or tttering a
sound until nightfall. Then the egg
will sweat blood, and when the spooky
words 'Abra cadabra' are uttered a
tempest will rise, and all the evil spir.
its which were ever heard of since
the world began will appear"
The adam and Eve" charm was
the one used to create love. Adam
and Eve were represented by roots
Adam was one root and Eve WIS the
other. Mr.. Soper read the directions
for their use to the jury. The roots
should be placed in running water, he
said, and the words Whom God hath
joined together let no man put asun.
der" should be recited over them.
Mr.. Soper also described the "an.
cient Egyptian breastplate," contain.
ing the powders and prayers, and
charged with magic solar fluid"

Mrs. Julia ward Howe,s Joke.

Despite her advanced years (she
recently celebrated the eighty-sev-
enth anniversary Of her birth in her
charming home in Boston, surround
err by her children and friends), Mrs.
Julia Ward Howe retains her aptitude
for the making of clever phrases. A
few days ago, on her return from Bal
timore, when she had been recuper-
ating from a slight illness, Mrs.
Howe was driven through one of the
side streets of Boston with friends,
and passed the charitable eye and ear
infirmary. That institution does
much good, and no one knows 1t bet
ter than Mrs. Howe. But as She
looked at the building and slowly
read the name, she said, without the
shadow Of a smile: Il don't see the
good of that place" why, what do
you mean?" asked a friend, in aston.
ishment." This" said Mrs. Howe;
Il did not know there was a char
liable eye or ear in Boston; so what
is the use of an infirmary for them?'
Though she had lived all her life in
Boston, Mrs. Howe never had lost
sight of the peculiar characteristics
of the residents Of the Hub.

What Is a Catamaranp

Having read to her pupils descrip-
ton of the sinking of the Merrimac,
the teacher some days later asked her
pupils what the word "catamaran'
then used meant. These are some of
the answers: "a catamaran is a
mounting lion." "The catamaran is
a savage officer in the Filipose is
lands" "a catamaran carries clubs
In a golf game" "The catamaran is
the place in Chicago where the cat
show is held" "The catamaran was
convention hall prise" "The' cata-
maran is the proper name for a cat
boat and war ram together like the
Catadin." "Hobson obtained cata-
maran from the Spanish officers which
was all he had to eat"
