A Losing Agreement.

A Jenkintown grocer says tina
there is nothing like being accom-
modating, even if it goes so far as to
cause a loss in cash. About a year
ago a character well known in that
section of Montgomery county, who
lives alone in a small house nearly
mile back in the country, happen
ed to be in the store and said his
stock of provisions was low. He
asked the grocer to sell him s cents
worth of -four. ''Why don't you buy
a dollars worth ?" asked bystand-
er. 'T amt got no bag" was the
reply. "Oh, well, I'll lend you one, :"
said the merchant. 'EBut l amt
got no money with me" the man
said. .'You can pay for it when you
bring back the bag" was the reply,
and the man went home with his
-four. One day last week the man
was again in the store, and the gro
Ger said to him: Il have little bill
against you for flour. Do you re-
member about it ?" His eyes open
ed with astonishment as he gazed at
the grocer and replied, 81 amt
brought the bag back yet" The
bill has been charged to profit and

Cells of the H9neycomb.

Honeybees are generally credited
with instructive skill in making the
cells Of the comb hexagonal in
shape, but it is probable that this
construction is merely the ordinary
result of mechanical laws. Solitary
bees always make circular cells, and
the bees in a hive no doubt make
them circular also, but mechanical
pressure forces them into a hex
agonaf form. A well known natural
list in speaking of the matter says
that all cylinders made of soft, plia-
BILE substances become hexagonal
under such circumstances.

study of the subject, said that the

invariably sickly and emaciated.
Anciently the substance was
known as amber, a name which was
subsequently applied to the fossil
gum now commonly so called. But
to distinguish the two one was call

So it appears that ambergris
means simply gray amber Like the
fossil gum, pieces of it were found
now and then on the seashore,

WOMEN OF HOLLAND.
Their Costumes Too Complex r
Words, Says a Feminine Writef.


Words, Says a Feminine Writef
The women's costume is u tFiae
too complex for verbal description,
as feminine belongings usually are,
says Florence Craig Albrecht in
Scribner's, but the white lace cap
which covers the head from eye
brows to nape of neck and from ear
to ear, curving out in rounded wings
on each side of her cheek, is always
a conspicuous and inevitable portion
of a woman's attire. 1t may posi-
bly, be that on Sunday this cap is a
trife whittier or sitter or daintier
than on week days, but the differ
ence Is not very apparent.
The ladies assure US there is a
vast difference in the quality of the
net and the amount of handiwork
employed, but the lens made no
special note of that. In shape and
outline the camera finds great dis
tinction between these caps and
those of Katwyk or Marker or Bots
lie Due, but between Sunday and
Monday caps in Volendam it records
none whatever. For the rest Of the
costume feminine Holland asks
above all things apparently very
fiat, narrow chest, surmOunting
enormous hips, and Volendam is no
exception to this fashion rule.
The invariable black "best waist"
of the elder women is usually
frightened by a square yoke of
lighter color and material, and the
dark apron or overskirt Is topped
by six inches or more of gay plaid
or bright colored band worn over an
underskirt Of dull blue striped or
black material and uncountable pet
ticoats-
About the throat a collar formed
of many rows of heavy dark red
coral beads is fastened by huge sill
yer clasps, and the number of rows,
the size and quality of the beads
are matters for feminine pride.
Long hair is not the only glory of
woman in Holland, save perhaps at
Marker. It is usually hidden and
at VoleHdam is cut quite close and
entirely covered by tight fitting
thick black silk cap concealed be-
meath the snowy white lace.
The younger girls, from the
tiniest fodder to the young meisje,
old enough to wed, wear dresses
and caps the exact counterpart Of
their grave mothers, no less full of
skirt or narrow of chest, but much
gayer in color. A group of tiny
maidens in a stiff breeze on the dixie
resembles nothing more than q
swarm Of butterflies.

Letter to Geo. [. Putegnat.
Brownsville, Texas.

Dear Sir: The easiest way we
kuow-of to make little money
is-if you're going to paint-to
paint with the paint that takes least
gallons.
Take small job; say it takes 10
gallons Devoe, two coats; that's an
average house. When the job is
done and the bill comes-in, it is
$50; the paint etc $3.50; the rest
is for labor and carriage; the labor
is fixing the surface, shifting lad
ders scafolds pulIeys and ropes.
and brushing-on paint.
Take another job exactly like
that; try another paint; it takes u
gallons. The bill is $40 more.
Take another exactly the same;
another paint; it takes 20 gallons.
The bill is 500.
There is only one Devoe; there's
a dozen 12-gallon paints, and 100
that take 20 gallons to cover a To-
gallon job.
The only difficulty is in finding
out Devoe. After that you save
work; there's less work in 10 than
in II or 20 gallons; less paint to
buy and less to brush-on and less
wages to pay.
If Devoe were only alittle better
than others, there'd be some diff
Guilty in fnding-out the difference.
It goes twice as far as half the
paints; that ought to be easy.
1t wears longer too. You'll wait
a good while, if you wait to find
out how long it wears; there are
thousands of people who know that
the designations paint wears long

Toxic, Nov. 20.-While there was
no further official action in connec
tion with the emigration of Japanese
to Canada and the United States, in
dications appoint to the conclusion
that Japan probably is ready to ad
nit the argument presented by the
American ambassador that the ques-
ton requires immediate attention
There is reason to expect that after
the arrival of Baron Ishii, chief of
the bureau of commerce of the for
eign office, who was sent to Ameri-
ca as special Commissioner to in
qufre into the matter, the Japanese
government will undertake the self
imposed task of limiting emigration
within the bounds desired by both
the United States and Canada.
The Canadian commissioner of
labor, who is here actively investi-
eating the subject, has made no for
NAL proposition, but it is understood
that he has plainly indicated that a
prompt curtailment of the number of
emigrants is necessary if Japan is
sincerely desirous of assisting her
ally, in order to avoid serious COM
plications with British colonies.
An editorial il Jill, which is some
times inspired by the Japanese for
eign office, says that presumably the
Canadian Commissioner, Lemiex,
comes to Japan asking for limitation
of the emigration to Canada. The edi-
torial continues: I'VE naturally are
a peace loving nation, and if tae emf
grafton of Japanese into Canada en-
dangers the public peace we will not
hesitate to absolutely forbid emigra-
tion to that country. The Japanese
government is trying to limit the
emigration yearly by law, and We
hope the Canadian government will
generously assist us in reaching a
solution of the problem. Race hatred
is diScreditable to Canada. We believe
the japanese would promote the well
fare of Canada by developing it's re-
sources. But if peace is disturbed, it
is better to altogether prevent our
people from emigrating
