A Berkeley bookseller, anxious to fill
an order for liberal patron, wired to
Chicago for copy of Seekers After
God" by Canon Farrar, and to his sur
prise and dismay received this reply:

New York. Try Philadelphia"
The German Emperor's little daugh-
ter is credited with this incident. She
was tired of all the old games, SO said
to her playmates: Il know what we
will do. Let's play at being quite poor
ple-frightfully poor people who
have only one or two footmen"
One more instance of the power OF
punctuation. Even a comma may play
the very mischief. Not many years
ago distinguished graduate Of Oxford
decided to enter the Nonconformist
ministry, and to wear no sacerdotal
garb. And he announced his intention
In a manifesto containing the words,
II shall wear no clothes, to distinguish
me from my fellow-C Christians" That
delightful comma made him the laugh
ing-stock Of the university and the joy
Of the picture-shops, whose windows
were flooded with Illustrations Of the
Rev. x. Y. a. distinguishing himself
from his fellow Christians.
The great Won Moltke never wasted
words and despised anything that ap-
preached garrulity In others. On one
occasion he was leaving Berlin on
railway journey. Just before the train
pulled out of the station, captain of
hussars entered the generals compart-
ment, and recognizing him, saluted
with "Guten Morgen, Excellenzr Two
hours later the train slowed up at q
way station. The captain rose, after
sitting in silence during the journey,
saluted, and with another "Guten Nor
gen, Excellenz!" left the train. Turn
ing to one of his companions, Won
Moltke said, with an expression Of dis !
gust, "Intolerable gasbag"
Some time ago the Usage Indians
were called into council. 1t was In the
Indian Territory and an election was
approaching at which the noble red

cued beef and fed the Indians welL
And the Indians were "for" the Dem

them to a barbecue, and they were

Pat saw the bumpers ahead and, guess

Keeping presses Fre.h.

One of the incest ways of keeping
dresses especially evening ones-fresh
is to sew throughout the lining tiny
perfumed silk sachets. Any odd bit of
silk does for this purpose. Make the sa-
chet about one inch square. Put in a
layer Of soft white wadding, into which
has been sprinkled some sachet pow
der Sew up and tack firmly to vari-
GUS places in skirt and bodice. This
gives the delicate elusive fragrance to
your frock which Is rather hard to at
tain when liquid perfume is used. 1t
also has additional benefit of keeping
away destructive moths when the gar
ment is laid aside for a time.

MY Refuge, MY Defense.
God is my refuge, my defense,
My Shepherd and my King,
My strength, my strong Deliveref,
OF whom love to sing.
And God is my Salvation, too,
My Fortress strong and tried,
Beneath the shadow of His wing
In perfect peace / hide.
God is my Rock forever sure;
Here may always rest
Beneath this shade in love secure,
No harm can me molest.
God Is the glory of my days,
And of His grace I'll sing,
Who gave for me His only Son,
My Prophet, Priest and King.

New kind Of work for women.

Some genius has constructed ma
chine that it is said will do away with
the stenographer and the office boy.
This machine is partly phonograph,
through which the man talks, and his
message is then automatically written
out by typewriter attachment. Well,
there is the consolation that it will take
women to make the parts of this ma
chine, and possibly the work will be
more congenial than the stenographic
work.

For country house bedrooms that are
furnished In colonial style no fabric
approaches more closely the old-time
dimity, OF which our foremothers made
their bedspreads, than the tieece-lined
or other heavy striped or barred plques
found on the modern counter. These
materials are used by decorators who
ARE given carte blanche In carrying out
their schemes for bedspreads, bureau

all the pieces are scalloped and but

would be found that the majority of
the protests are against the dropping
of the words after they have been in
use so long.
There were also some criticisms re-
ceived at the White House of the in
artistic design of the coin. 1t can
not be learned that the President has
changed his opinion either of the
design or of the propriety of emitting
the religious phrase. He has been
so absorbed In the financial situation
that he has not had time to give the
protests against the coin much con-
sideration.
The eagle is shapelier bird on the
twenty dollar gold piece than he is
upon the half eagle. The design gives
the effect of has relief and is rough
to the touch If adopted it will
doubtless create as much criticism as
has the ten-dollar design. The phrase
"In God We Trust" does not appear
upon the coin.
There have been no designs adopt
ed for the silver coinage and it can
not be learned that there is any
immediate intention of changing them.

Bread That Won't Rise

When your bread fails to rise, don't
throw the dough away, and, by all
means, don't attempt to bake it, for
it will certainly be unfit to eat, says
the December Delineator. Instead,
take a teacupfuI of -four, two heap
ing teaspoonfuls of baking powder,
a scant teacupful of lard, and enough
warm milk or water to make a sticky
dough. Work this in with the other
dough; roll fiat, and cut into the
shape of biscuits. Then bake quick
ly. The result will be lot of bis
cults, so nice and light that every
body will agree that they are super
ior to the ordinary soda or baking
powder variety. The proportions
given will be found sufficient if there
was not more than a quart of flour
used in making the first dough

Presidential Mail Filled

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov 21.-
(SpeciaD The Presidential mail is
filled with correspondence on the
subject of the new gold coins. A
large portion of it each day is made
up of letters of protest and common

greater part is in criticism of the
