Green leaves growing on an orna-

Makeup peeeIved the Officer.

A laughable scene was enacted on
the stage of the principal theater in
Hanover on the evening of the first
production there OF Wedekind's The
Awakening OF Spring" The play had
a run of more than 200 nights in Ber-
lin, and the house at Hanover was
sold out because there had been much
discussion as to whether the censors
would allow the production. While
the scene in the first act between Frau
Bergman and her daughter was on a
police officer strobe upon the stage
and demanded In declamatory man
ner to see the license allowing the
child there" to act. The man of the
law was not little surprised to learn
that the child" was an adult and an
actress of high standing, whose admir-
able makeup was an additional proof
OF her artistic talent.

ITO break the cigarette habit In a

peppermint drops lie cannot smoke

even for some time after 1t is. dis
solved tobacco will not blend kindly
with the taste that remains. Socially
the cure may seem worse than the
disease, but from a medical point OF
view the sucking OF peppermints is
far less hurtful. common bulls eye
will prevent smoking for nearly an
hour, so the amount Of sweets used

Not Altogether True.

More than half OF the several hun
bred people taking the courses at
Lowell institute under Harvard pro-
fessors, says Boston paper, are
women. and these courses require an
attendance three times a week. And
wherever one goes the same thing is
true. only as general thing the pro-
portion OF women in such classes
would be greater than one-half. This
does not look as though women were
wasting all their energies in the de
bauch OF whist" Lots Of women play
whist and bridge. but It is generally
when there is nothing else to do and
the mind needs rest from more ardu.
GUS labors. The majority OF bridge
players prefer men partners, so that
one sex spends about as much time
as the other over cards.
