PARIS TREATERs.
Manners and Customs That Strike an
American as Peculiar,


It is not the play or the acting or the
applause that attracts and holds the
attention Of the American who is at
tending for the first time Il Partisan
opening. 1t is the audience. In the
first place. the prctlouinance Of men
in the best orchestra seats will provoke
q question which brings forth the in
formation that III the majority of the
better class rheaters in Paris the first
three rows Of the orchestra are sold
almost exclusively to men. and, as far
as it is possible, the box Office favors
men for the body Of the house. princi-
pally because they do not wear hats
and do not therefore obStruct the view
Of those sitting behind Before the
curtain goes up the stranger glances
about and is surprised to discover jew
els and gowns decollete in the highest
balconies, the part Of the theater
known in America as peanut heay-
en-" Both men and women, dressed
as for a grand ball, are perched away
up at least three flights of stairs. and
during entr'actes they come dowl and
promenade with the others and visit
their friends, and few are the wiser
as to the location of their seats. The
very fact of being present at an i'm
portant opening is enough to give
certain social precedence, even though
they sat on the rafterS or clung to the
chandeliers.
Another feature which attracts the
American is that during the entr actes
the men who do not join the prom
epade stand up and don their hats the
moment the curtain is down, and they
spend the entire twenty or twenty-five
minutes inspecting their neighbors
through opera glasses. There is much
activity in the balconies and in the
boxes. caused by the social calls which
are being exchanged. In the orchestra
rows and family circles the men and
the women stand up. and opera glasses
are used freely by both, and many lit
tie firtations are enjoyed between
those in the balconies, or loSes, anu
those on the first floor.
It is not considered rude to lever
glasses at any one, whether within a
few feet or up in the balcony, but it is
rather considered compliment to the
face or more often the shoulder that
attracts such close inspection. 1t Is
true that the French are famed for
their polished manner, but it is equally
true that in the eyes Of an American

A WHISTLER STORY.
The Eagle That Was Made to Pose as
Fighting Cock.


Fighting Cock.
Apropos Of something Whistler once
told & cockhght story so vividly that
only man with a sailor instinct could
tell it as we'll. mimic it so kcenly and
enjoy it SO thoroughly 1t was a story
of strange species of the American
cock, pictured to the smallest detail sc
beautifully that one forgot that it was
a story.
Some American sailors were at s
cockfghr in a seaport town in Eng
land when one Of them remarked tc
the owner Of the champion:
I'VE have got an American cocS or

sailors. When they got aboard they
rig"ed up IN American eagle AItel
their own manner. they painted, Trim
med. spliced and reefed fore and ait
transforming the eagle to cock. When
ready they went ashore to pit thei1
new American gamecock against al
England.
At the pit the sailors chucked In
their cock. which looked around fol
other surprises as he backed close to
the wall.
"Now, bring on your birds" yelled
the sailors. a strutting cock was
thrown into the pit and was another
surprise to the poor. dismantled eagle
He backed up closer and closer to the
wall. wondering what would happen
next. The cock walked three times
majestically around the circle, cutting
at his strange opponent, the eagle pitt
ably abashed and bedrabbled, crouch
Inc lower and lower and looking
around and above him for an eXplana
ton Of what X all meant. while the
crowd were yelling madly for the
English fighter. The eagle made him
self smaller and smaller. but at last
finding that he could get back no fur'
ther and thinking that something was
expected Of him. and. as the COCK
dashed at him again. stretched out his
long claws and took his opponent BY
the neck.
Here Whistler ended with an imita
ton by motions Of what the eagle did
He stretched out his arm. shaped bis
hand like a claw, which by this time
looked like real one. drew it to his
mouth and with one bite pulled Oh
the head as he thought al eagle might
do it. Then he looked blandly about
the room. as the eagle had done, at the
astonished crowd and said, 'Now brins

a Servant Problem.

Mosquitoes the Only Fiaw-Not Even
a Servant Problem.
Birds are everywhere in Hawaii.
Their music fills the QuiverinS air. One
wonders why we do not all live in this
paradise, where life seems to stretch
out before one. in q long, languid dream
Of delight.
Suddenly through your dreaming
comes a rude awakening. The Ha-
waiian mosquito, the one flaw in the
gem, the only thorn in the garden, has
called to make your acquaintance ana
bid you welcome to his domain.
The houses, with their broad veran-
das filed with palms and flowers and
furnished with tables, chairs, ham
mocks and grass rugs, are paradise
to the weary traveller It is here that
the Honolulu people enjoy their glo-
riouS climate.

land Of plenty.
Everybody seems to take life easily.
The Offices close very early. and no one
seems to know what care is. The sug-
ar barons, their capital once rightly in
vested, draw their dividends, and the
rest Of life is required to spend them.
We stop at the home Of our friend, a
bungalow that is the picture of com
fort. One end Of the veranda is used
as q sun parlor, sheltered by windows
and screens. for what they call cold

other end Of the house and the kitchen

bers are cottages by themselves.
The bath is hewn out Of solid stone
with a shower above. Servants are
provided for in quarters apart from the
house. The whole, in fact. greatly re-
minds one of an old southern planta-
ton home with modern Improvements.
Just in front Of the house, spreading
its great limbs at least sixty feet IN
diameter, is 4 great monkey pod tree
and under its protecting branches the
children, and older ones, too, enjoy the
swings and hammocks in an atmos'
phere which lulls to sleep. AS we SIT

The Word "Widow.n

As word widow" is most inter-
esting. Max Mueller traced it back
through thousands Of years with hard
" any change Of form or meaning.
'The word at it's original formation
meant simply woman left without
man, just as it does today, and it has
remained all these ages materially un-
changed both in sound and meaning"
A thousand years ago the Anglo-Saxons
used the word in England and north
Germany. The Meso-Goths and. earlier
than they the Latin people knew it
centuries before the Anglo-Saxons. and
the Sanskrit records show that q thou
sand years before Latin was written
the same word was spoken on the
slopes Of the Himalayas.
