First Pocket Handkerchief.

The pocket handkerchief was not in
vogue until 1910, when a beautiful Ven
etian lady appeared carrying one. and
from this time it became common use in
Italy. The French were quick to follow
the fashion, and pocket handkerchiefs
were made of costly materials and richly
embroidered. They were brought to Eng
land from France, says Home Notes, but
Germany was slow to adopt their use, and
when at last the pocket handkerchief was

and noble lineage of it's possessors.

How the Japs Pull Teeth.

The japanese dentist does not brighten
his patient with an array of steel instru-
ments. All his operations in tooth draw
ing are performed by the forennger and
thumb OF one hand. The skill necessary
to do this is acquired only after long prac-
tice. but when once 1t is obtained the
operator is able to extract half dozen
teeth in about thirty seconds, without
once removing his fingers from the pa
TENTS mouth. says Home Notes. The
dentists education commences with the
pulling out of pegs which have been
pressed into soft wood: 1t ends with the
drawing of hard pegs which have been
driven into an oak plank with a mallet

W

great powers go to war in
the skies?
This question appears to have aroused
Uncle Sam from a nap into which he had
fallen.
A congress of aeronauts met n New
York only the other day and heard
speeches from a number OF men who
know something of diplomacy, who read
the signs of the times and who. above all,
are patriots. These men-Rear Admiral
c. n. Chester u. S. N, and Gen. Allen,
Z. S. A, among the number-sounded a
note of warning which found immediate
answer in recommendation to Congress.
and which has echoed through the coun-
try.
In a word. the speakers at the congress
showed just how America had failed to
realize the significance of what her rivals
were doing with the airship as an auxiE
larry TO their naval and military establish
ments. They showed that Uncle Sam had
dozed for a moment. and that while his
head dropped on his bosom a toy of yester-
day had become a powerful engine which
was destined to play an important part
in the history of the future.
And they showed, too. that the brains
and hands which brought about this de-
velopment were English, French and Ger
man. but not American
America is used to leading, and Ameri-
cans are not comfortable in the rear
rank of any procession, so it did not take
the convention of aeronauts long to pass
resolution urging upon Congress the i'm
portance of providing funds for an aerial
fleet. They chered loudly at a statement
of Gen. Allen. who said that e thought
Secretary Taft would ask lor 100000 at
the next session to maintain an aero
nautic branch in the army.
So the matter will come right before
Congress, and while every effort to in
crease the strength of the naval or mill
tary establishment of the country raises
more or less opposition. 1t is believed
| that the national lawmakers will not
| hesitate over a matter which, advocates
of the plan argue, involves the prestige
| of the nation. Senators and representa-
! tives are to be appealed to upon pa
| triotic grounds, and the scream of the
| eagle will doubtless echo through the
| halls at Washington next month.
