LIeweIIyn Buys Up All In the Island
During q Famine.

Il is not generally known that one
Of the first corners formed in any
market was a corner in harps. There
is a story told of one Of the famous
LIewellyns who had taken up his resi-
dence in England to the effect that
during the great famine in Ireland he
went through almost every section OF
the emerald Isle exchanging much de-
sired gold for harps belonging to the
famine-stricken peasants. Naturally
the peasants we're glad enough to sell
their harps and anything else they
possessed for food or money to buy
food. and the first thing Irishmen
knew they were practically harpless
Scarcely a single Irish instrument
could be scared up In any community
and then they began to wonder what
had become Of their harps. BY that
time the dread and horror Of the fam
inc had passed and the ephemeral spir-
its OF the sons OF Erin were light and
would make merry, but how could they
sing and dance without their beloved
harps? Then il was discovered one
man owned practically all the Irish
harps. and when he did part with them
ii is said that the price received was
far in advance Of that given some
time before. History has not record
ed a second corner in these celestial
instruments.

To Rathe in HIoomers?

Up around Santa Barbara society people
are much agitated over the question of
bathing with or without skirts. 1t started
through the discovery that the Bur-
lingame set, that aggregation of exclusive
people who are considered the cream of
San Mateo county, haye set the seal of
their approval on the diminished costume,
which is an idea borrowed from the Ger
man bathing resorts, where the women
have long been accustomed to going in
swimming in long boomers without skirt
covering.
Town Talk says that many of the
bathing girls at Blingum have adopted
the new fad and are quite oblivious to
the comments of the villagers who look
on in shocked amaze.
At the resorts hereabouts, the unsklrted
girl has not yet dared to put in an ap-
pearance; but at Long Beach the suits
without stockings are a common sight.
The woman who swims argues that what
ever impedes her movements in the water
she should not be required by dame
Propriety to wear.
Whether the woman bathers of the
southwest coast will be courageous
enough to try for a further emancipation
from public opinion in the matter OF
hygienic bathing dress remains to be
seen.

WOMAN GOES SHOPPING AND is
wHIskEp AWAY
Busy Committeeman Seizes Customer
and Loads Her on Car-Has
Delightful but Unex-
pected Outing

Sonora Morena, a modiste at liz South
South Hill street, went to a picnic at
Playa del Rey Saturday afternoon.
Sonora Morena didn't want to go and
when she started out on a shopping tour
Saturday morning she had no idea that
she would land by the sad sea waves.
but she went, just the same
The little Spanish woman who mo
habla" one word of English, with her
little daughter, who understands few
words of the tongue of her adopted land
but who cannot speak 1t, went to Ham
burgers store Saturday morning to pur-
chase some kitchen utensils.
In the midst of her effort to make an
American clerk understand what she
wanted the stock keepers began to cover
up the goods. for 1t was noon and that
store closes at noon in order that its en-
ployes may have half holiday.
Her buying had to cease but with
stewpan in one hand and two cream
pitchers in the other and her little girl
clinging to her we'll fitted skirt, she was
politely bowed out the front door.
Senora's Excitement Starts
A great crowd of people was on the
sidewalks and a number of special cars
covered with gay banners were standing
on the tracks, sfor the employees OF the
store had planned a monster picnic to be
held at Playa del Rey.
A busy chairman of transportation was
running around the crowd pinning little
blue ribbons to everybody in sight. The
little badges bore inscriptions stating that
this was the umpsteenth picnic OF the
department store people.
Sonora Morena was trying desperately
to edge herself through the big gather
ing when the busy chairman of trans
portation saw her.
why you are a clerk in the domes-
tic department and you haven't badge.
Here, pin this on, quick" and suiting the
action to the word Sonora Morena and her
little daughter were hastily decorated
with little blue badges.
Here take this car. There is plenty
of room in there"
Whirled along by the surging crowd
Sonora Morena and her little girl found
themselves wedged tightly into a seat
in the crowded car, and before the fright
ened look had left their soft brown eyes
the car was at full speed.
Whisked to SeasEore
Not comprehending just what was taxi
ing place, the sonora waited for the next
thing to happen.
The next thing was big red-faced man
in blue uniform, who stopped before her
seat with outstretched palm. The fright
ened look returned. for the little Spanish
woman 'yo no sabe." The big blue man
made noises. Still mo sabe." He made
louder noises. Still mo sabe." His noises
grew to a roar.
Sonora Morena has been in the United
States just long enough to know there is
one language common to all, and that is
the language of the American eagle dis
cordantly screaming from an American
dollar. AS last resort she handed him
dollar. Instantly his roar ceased and

PRETTY SENORA KIDNAPPED AND TAKEN
TO PICNIC BESIDE THE SAD SEA WAVES

1t seemed this people who had carried
her away meant to treat her we'll after
all, and maybe they would let her return
to her Hill street home some day IL she
remained very quiet and did nothing to
anger them.
The food was excellent and she felt a
little relieved. They placed a piece Of
white paper In front of her with funny
little marks on It, She didn't want 1t.
Hadn't any idea what TO do with 1t. But
then 1t was probably a part of all these
strange adventures she was experiencing.
Has a Good Dinner
She finished her dinner. and as no one
seemed inclined to detain her she gath
cred her little girl in one hand and all
the cooking utensils she had been forced
to bring with her in the other, and tried
to hasten out the broad front door into
the free air.
Butt All, she thought sol They
wouldn't let her get away so easily after
going to all that trouble to bring her
down there.
A pretty girl in a white duck suit,
sitting behind a. funny shining thing
that ever and anon she punched with
a clear metallic sound stopped her and
sweetly explained something. She ex-
planned again and again, and finally.
with many signs, made Sonora Morena
understand that she wanted the little
white paper with signs scrawled on it.
Much relieved, Sonora Morena returned
to the table and brought the little white
slip and gave it to the pretty girl.

But the P. G. still was not satisfied. She
wanted something else and her patience
was wearing out. She spoke a little
sharply now and held out her hand, ex-
actly as the blue-coated man on the car
had done.
Eagle Talks for Her
The American eagle would have to talk
for her again. She gave the pretty cash

"All out for the ladies' race!" shouted
busy chairman of the sports commit
tee, and in an instant the bright-eyed
sonora was whisked away from her stew
pans and cream pitchers and placed on
the mark to run.
"Madre de dos" what now?
when 1 give the word go do your
best and finish at that post" shouted
the starter.
Sonora Morena didn't understand so
she made false start. In a twinkling
she was caught and firmly but kindly
placed back on the mark.
Then came the start. The pretty Span
ish woman didn't understand what had
alarmed the well-gowned and laughing
Americana senoritas beside her on the
mark, but she knew it must be some
| thing terrible, and self-preservation
called upon her to fly. Picking up her
dainty skirts she spurned the cinders
and crossed the finish line an easy
winner.
There was much applause and laughter.
Before the sonora knew what had hap
pened she was caught by the girls and

badge on her, and rushed her aboard
the car now came forward, his face
wreathed with smiles. He pressed a
fve-pound box of candy into her hands
and rushed away.

Sonora Morena was astonished. Not
so her daughter Bertha.
The child realized it was a race and
two minutes later she was on the mark
for the girls race. Speed runs in the
family and Bertha crossed yards to the
good She won a bottle of fine perfume.
Cheered by the incidents Sonora Morena
yielded to the child's opportunities and
allowed her to join the other children
wading in the soothing water on the
beach.
1t was a great day for Bertha, who
returned laden with sea shells and sand.
Sonora Morena sat on the sand and
watched the big green waves curl and
turn with an mighty roar into lacy foam.
then dash onto the beach with soft
murmur.
She fell to day dreaming After all she
needed this days outing and rest.
Then she found friend, not one who
spoke the soft Castilian tongue. but just
a woman with sympathetic face. She
poured out her story more by sign Ian
guage than anything else.
The story brought laughter. 1t was
hearty, contagious laughter, and the
pretty sonora Joined in.
After an hours enjoyment watching the
last of the water sports on the lagoon,
the sonora and Bertha were placed on a
car and sent home. much happier for an
enforced day at the shore.
