Ratskins for Gloves.

4 glove manufacturer took from a
cabinet the other day handsome pair
Of brown gloves.
'Ratskin," he said. "These gloves
arc made of ratskin. They look well
at first glance, but examine them care
fully. Look into the skin"
The skin, though soft and fine and
supple, revealed on close examination
a great many cuts and scars and
scratches. None of these went quite
through, nevertheless their effect was
to weaken the gloves greatly.
Those cuts and scars said the
manufacturer, ARE what bar ratskins
out Of glove making. You never get
skin without them. Hence you can't
make good. strong, perfect ratskin
glove.
These scars are the result of the
rats pugnacity. Rats fight so much
that they become at an early age a
mass of scars. Their torn hides are of
no use to commerce. minneapolis

Woman's Diplomacy
IOriginal.l

[Orginall
Providence, who manages all things
wisely and economically, wastes no
talents on man for the management of
woman. The wisdom of this course is
that man needs no such talent until
after marriage, and after marriage he
has q wife to manage other women for
him. The economy consists in the fact
that men shall marry. A single man
never appreciates the sensitiveness of
the opposite sex. Woman hides her
wounds, and man often stamps through
her feelings with seven league boots.
An incident that occurred to me aft
er my marriage taught me this, and
since then l have invariably left the
settlement of my differences with 9th
er women to my wife. l had passed
middle life before marrying. | had
met ladies, as other bachelors meet
them, socially, but my club was my
home, and | was never thrown into IN
innate association with any woman.
But | considered myself sufficiently
mild hammered and deferential to the
softer sex for all ordinary social pur-
poses. What wounds / had inflicted
did not know, nor was l conscious Of
having inflicted any.
The honeymoon over, my wife took
me in training, and it soon became ap-
parent that | needed great deal Of
1t. However, in about year / sup
posed l was thoroughly educated. One
day my wife informed me that her
dearest friend, whom she had not seen
since we had been married, was COM
ing, to visit her, and she was especial
~ anxious that l should make good
impression. | resolved to be on my
guard and put on my most affable and
deferential manner.
The first evening Of Miss BANDS ar
rival my wife, my sister and our guest
sat down to game of whist. I was
of course assigned to play with Miss
Bland. l got on swimmingly. 1 saw
that my partner knew little OF the
game, and it gave me an opportunity
her friends mistakes without the
slightest reference TO them. l would
probably have gone through the even
ing without trespassing on my part
ner's feelings had not she made
misplay that gave me an opportunity,
as 1 thought, to make brilliant strike
in soothing her.
l had a fine long suit all of which
/ could make if could draw my OPP
ponents' trumps; but, having only four
trumps myself, all depended upon my
partner outstanding hers. My wife
led small spade, and /, desiring to
get the lead, put on the king. When
my partner played, the trick was mine.
She trumpet it, l WINGED, but said
nothing. My partners error gave our
opponents the odd trick.
II shouldn't have trumpet your
trick, should II" said Miss Bland, red
dening.

that in this case 1t didn't matter since

way. but refrained from comment
"NOw think. of it," said Miss Bland,
much mortified. somebody told me
once that to trump ones partners trick
was the worst mistake a player can
make"
My wife looked at me appealingly. to
say something to make my partner feel
easier, and it was then tried to soothe
her.

softly.
What is it," asked Miss Bland.

me, and | cast glance at my wife,
expecting to see approval in her face.

There was an ominous tremor on
Miss BANDS lip, and presently she
arose, left the table and went upstairs.
"Now you've done it," said my wife
as she left the room to follow her
friend.
/ walked up and down the floor ours
ing myself for fool and wondering
if my wife would be able to explain
matters and get me out of the scrape.
/ also wondered how she would man
age the diplomatic task. OF course she
would tell Miss Bland-what else could
she tell her?-that | had intended my
remark to make her blunder seem less

slight, and perhaps Miss Bland might
have detected trace Of sarcasm in
my voice. Thank heaven" / NUT
tered, "it's woman against woman.

wAsrEFuL ONE TINE AD.
Some Of the Reasons II Does Not Bring
Replies.

Some weeks ago a retailer put a
small advertisement in the paper ask.
ing for shoe salesman. used my
own discretion and ordered it inserted
two weeks. Wien it first appeared,
no doubt the advertiser thought he
was going to get lot OF replies. He
got two only, and both were from the
immediate vicinity. The advertiser
called in the day before the replies
came and seemed astonished to find
there were no answers. l told him
had ordered it in twice, as | found
out by experience that the second
insertion is worth three or four of the
first. After that they began to come
in thick and fast. The second adver-
tisement drew them. On the eighth
day the replies were two, on the four
teenth day they were twenty one, and
the advertiser had selected his man
and hired him.
Now, people naturally say: well
how is that? Why does not the first
advertisement pull as well as the
second?" There may be several rea-
sons, but here is the chief one: A
man in the west or the south or even
the east notices a want advertisement
for a salesman in New York City.
He would like to .answer it, but he
considers "That place is filled by
this time by man on the spot.
There is no use in my wasting time
in writing after it. He may have
guessed right-that man on the spot
was first in answering-but that does
not prove that he got the place. Now,
the fellow sees the advertisement in
next week and says, by Jove, that
job wasn't filled after all - And he
sits down and applies for it. There
are plenty like him, and they furnish
the solution to the puzzle why one
advertisement does not pay as we'll as
the second
But the same theory can be carried
still further 1t applies as much to
full page display advertisements as it
does to the little four liners on the
want page. Many a man sees the
first appearance of a good display adj
vertisement and determines TO answer
ito write for sample of the shoe
advertised next week, say. In the
meantime, being busy man, it slips
his memory. He sees the same firm S
advertisement the next week or the
week after and is reminded of his in
tention. 1t may be several weeks be-
fore he decided, but the advertisement
is every week putting him in mind of
what he ought to do. and he finally
does it. There is nothing in one time
advertising, whatever the size of the
space used. 1t is ephemeral. 1t has
no backbone to it, no evidence of
stability in the house or reliability
either. You prefer to deal with a
merchant whom you know to be
steadily, not internationally. enter

STRANGE TURN IN HAU CASE.
New Evidence offered by Young
Woman to Prove Alibi.

LEIPZIG. Germany. October 15-The
mystery Of Frau MolItor's murder at
Baden Baden last November has been
deepened rather than pierced by the re-
hearing Of the evidence so far as it has
progressed on appeal Of the dead woman
son-in-law, Carl Haa. the Washington pro-
fessor under sentence of death for the
crime. The new evidence, offered by a
young woman who says she saw Hau
taking a cab for the railroad station Just
before Frau Molitor was slain, and that It
Is. consequently. impossible that he killed
her. has heightened interest in the search
Instituted by several criminologists for
some other suspect.
One puzzling feature Of the case is that
Olga MOlitOr, who was with her mother
when the latter was killed. processes not
to know who fired the shots. but to have
seen no more than mans retreating
figure. despite the fact that expert evi-
dence proves the weapons muzzle to have
been held within six inches of the victim s
body.
SO low as to Indicate that a short person,
rather than one Of lofty stature like Hau,
must have fired at her The experts agree
too, that the bullet came from the wom-
ans left, and inasmuch as Olga was at
her mothers left at the time. the invest1-
gators are baffied to explain why her body
did not shield that of her mother
One suggestion Is that the bullets were
not intended for Frau Molitor, but were
fred at Hau, and that the woman was
shot by mistake. This theory would seem
to suggest that Hau is protecting who
ever sought his life.
