FEET AND SHORT SKIRTS.

The council at Prague has been
INDUCING in grandmothcrly legisla-
ton, and has decreed that hence
forth no woman shall appear in the
streets in dress which touches the
ground.
There are few more helpless and
pitiable creatures than a woman or
a wet and windy day, trying to hold
up her skirt with one hand, while
with the other she grasps her UNI
brella and the little bag which serves
her in lieu of purse.
French and American women are
more sensible than we are in this re-
spcct, and in both countries the short
skirt is de rigeur for the street.
Perhaps-low be it spoken---ono
reason of its scant popularity here is
that feet of the average English
woman are not her best point, and a
pretty foot seems necessity.-Black
and White, London.

THE SPOILED CHILD.

Many mothers, after giving care
full attention to the physical care of
child during the first two or
three years of its life, are prone to
consider their work along this line
finished and 10 relax their vigilance.
There seems 70 be an impression, UNI
expressed it may be, that the mother
has been tied down long enough,
and that the child is able to shift for
himself and to do as his elders do.
or he is turned over to the care Of
nursery governess. On the other
hand, over-indulgent parents, from
a mistaken sense Of affection, are I'M
able TO deny the child any passing
within of appetite or temper. In
either case the result is the spoiled,
prccocious American child. who,
with his lack of consideration for
others and his irritable nerves, is
anything bit a comfort to his par
ents and a veritable nuisance to
every one else.-Pictorial Review.

USES FOR LIQUID AIR.

Now that liquid air can be pro-
duced for as little as five cents a
gallon, it is being called into service
to aid in smoothing out the difficult
ties in business life. In ice factories
and refrigerating plants the fumes
of ammonia from a broken pipe are
deadly poison, and many deaths re-
suit from inhaling them. To leave
the breaks unstopped means thou
sands of dollars of loss. Several
sorts of aircaps connected with the
outside air by tubes have been in use
to enable workmen to repair broken
ammonia pipes. But the latest, and
it is said the most satisfactory, con-
trivance is cap which fits over the
head like a divers helmet, connected
with tank of liquid air carried on
the back. The liquid air evaporates,
is warmed enough to breathe in its
passage through the helmet, and
leaves the workmen free to operate
without fear of breaking the airtube.

GAVE DRlNKER A SCARE
Brownies Eyes, Moved by cIockwork,
Made Him Think II Time for
Him to Quit.

He was at that point where be
thought a bracer was necessary to
steady his nerves and drive away the
pink elephants, so he dropped into a
place for a cocktail
The man behind the bar went
about his task with the elegant de-
liberation of barkeep in the resi-
dental district, and the other leaned
against the counter and regarded
the figure of a brownie that formed
a break inthe pyramid of glassware.
Suddenly the man at tie bar
jumped, and with an unsteady
"Never mind" started for the door.
The mixer set down the glass with a
smile.
"Come back a second" ne called.
The customer turned irresolutely.
"Did you see those eyes move?" he
asked. "They work by clockwork.
It's all right.
The man came back to the bar
and raised the cocktail glass with
trembling hand. "How did you
guess it?" he demanded.
"That's where it's easy to be Sher-
lock Holiness" he confded. at hap
pens every day. I've asked the boss
time and again to take the fool thing
out Of here, but some one gave it to
him when he opened, and he thinks

FAITH IN THE CLERGY,

The Highlanders' faith in the
clergy has always been peculiarly
profound. This characteristic is il
Illustrated, though in rather an exag-
gerated way, by the story of two
old women going along the road
after service, who were heard to dis
cuss the sermon as follows.
Peggy-Ah! and did you hear
that most precious word, Kirsty-a
most precious word?
Kirsty-No; and what word was
that?
Peggy-Oh, most precious
word, and it's myself that will not
forget 1.-THE precious word Nebu-
chadnezzar.
Kirsty-Oh, yes; but did you
hear that other most beautiful
word? Myself never heard it said
before-the beautiful word Bel
shazzar?-The Caledonian.

HOW CASEY WON HIS BET.

jeff Call, a negro who came here
from Jacksonville, Mo-, rented a
house in the northeastern part of
the city. He fell behind in his rent
and refused to move out. The land
lord, W. l.. Stephens, was given
judgment against Call by Justice
Remley for $40.
an bet $3.50 you don't have him
out of there in five days." Mr..
Stephens said to Roy Casey, the con-
stable.
The bet was made. Casey turned
TO Thomas Raper, a deputy, and
said:
Move 'em out, Tom"
Rapcr went to Calls home.
Got to move you out he said
bluntly "But I'll give you so cents
10 set your goods in the street."
1t was chance for Call. He ac-
cepted the offer. Call got the so
cents, Casey won $3.50 and the land
lord got possession of his house.

STORY OF FAMOUS HYMN.
"All Glory, Laud and Honour" Writ.
ten In Prison.

A popular hymn is Theodulph's "All
glory, laud and honour" belonging to
the ninth century, and said to have
been written by the poet while in An.
gers prison. The author of Hymns
and Their Makers" quotes legend in
relation to its use on Palm Sunday,
81, to the effect that when Louis the
Pious, king of France, was at Anglers,
he took part In the usual procession
OF laity and clergy. and as the process.
sion passed the place where st. Theo-
dulph, the bishop Of Orleans, had long
been incarcerated he was seen stand
Ing at the open window of his cell,
and there, amid the silence of the peo-
pie, he sang his hymn, to the delight
OF the king, who at once ordered him
to be set at liberty and restored to his
see. In some minor details this legend
is referred to by other writer's as well.
The original is too long to be sung in
modern services. as 1t has no fewer
than q lines. The verses usually
found In our hymnals are but a frag-
ment OF the original hymn, which. with
more or less abbreyiation, has Sbeen

FOLLY THAT CAUSED DEATH
Almost Inconceivable Dsobedience to
Physicians Orders Reported
from London.

A curious fatality is reported
the only one which has occurred at
the Central,London Throat and Ear
hospital, in which the patients dis
obedience TO rules led to misadyen-
ture under nitrous oxide gas. He
had been told that he must not take
even milk or bread, though cup of
soup or beef tea might be permitted.
Had he obeyed these instructions all
might have been well. As it was,
soon after nitrous oxide gas had been
administered and the operation be-
gun, the patients breathing failed,
and although for over an hour every
effort was made to restore him he
died without regaining conscious
ness. When a post-mortem exam
nation was made it was found that
the stomach contained nearly two
pounds of undigested figs, which APP
parently the patent had eaten short
ly before cor ng to the hospital.
This sufficiently explained the fatal
result. Clearly neither the operator
nor the anaesthetist, who had admin
istered anaesthetics in $4,000 cases
without previous misadventure, can
be blamed for what was due to the
mans own folly.-The Hospital.

WARM DISCUSSION
 OF COURT POWERS
Attorneys General Take Up
 Matters in Convention
REMEDIES ARE SUGGESTED
Attorneys Discuss Conflict Between State and Federal Courts and Suq- eest Means of Overcoming
 the Present Troubles.

St. Louis, September BOA strong de- sire to do away with the conflict of juris dietion between state and federal courts and as one of the phases of that ques- ton, 10 restrict the power of federal courts in their dealings with matters per ta!ning wholly to q state seemed the prevailing sentiment at a convention Of attorneys general from fifteen states Of the union at the Southern hotel today. Herbert S HIadley. attorney general of Missouri, acted as chairman of the con vention.
 The following papers were given today:
 Antitrust Laws" J. P. Lightfoot, as- sistant attorney general of Texas; Rail road Rate Regulation" Herbert $. Had ley attorney general of Missouri, discus sion by W. T. Thompson, attorney gen. eral of Alaska; Conflict Between State and Federal Courts" by Edward T.. Young attorney general of Minnesota, discussion by R. Y. Fletcher, attorney general of Mississppi discussion by A.. NJ. Garber attorney general of Alabama. The opening paper was read by MT. Lightfoot of Texas on 'Anti-Trust Laws ' To meet the evils caused by illegal com binations in restraint of trade MT. Light foot suggested that the federal govern ment should amend it's laws on the fol- lowing points:
 There should be a reduction or the tariff on all necessities of life; there should be prohibition of interstate trans portation of trust made goods; there should be legislation prohibiting the use of the malls to trusts and monopolies when convicted of such; there should be legislation strengthening the laws against the secl ct rebates and preferential tariif In the discussion Attorney General Thompson of Nebraska told of the intquity of the free. passes, and stated that the Nebraska legislators who paid money for ! ,Aell tickets to tha capital In 1907 gave the state more satisfactory legislation regulating common carriers, than 1t had received in 30 years.
 Peculiar interest was given the paper on tThe Conflict Between State and Fcd- eraI Courts" by Attorney General Young of Minnesota, by the fact that he expects to be arrested on his return to Mime sota in connection with a contempt case arising out of conflict between courts.
 Murnurs of approval greeted General Young's statement that the most trouble arose from the exercise by federal courts of powers which the founders or the government never intended they should have and that it was plain that they must be limited. MT Young also said that many federal judges seem to mls- understand the relations between state and national governments, and the extent of their own powers. In conclusion ne pleaded for the emancipation of the states from the unlustihabe interference with their affairs by federal courts"
 MT. Fletcher of Mississippi, in discuss ing the paper, laid all the blame Of the fourteenth amendment of the constitu- ton, and said the amendment sounds the downfall of the exercise of power by the states.
