WALKING Sticks.

The sixteenth century Is that IN
which the walking stick became mol
merely a useful implement but an ar
ticle OF fashion, dignity and luxury
In the seventeenth century It was gold
headed and made Of rare woods. II
was sign Of leadership.
For q long period there was little
variety among Englishmen In the ma
terial used for the majority OF walking
sticks. The "oaken towel" as II was
pleasantly termed when an enemy was
TO be rubbed down." shared popular
ity with the crab tree cudgel which
among rural folk especially, was much
valued and classic from the conflict IN

Linked Eyebrows.

It is popularity believed that II ones
eyebrows meet it indicates deceit.
Charles Kingsley indorses this belief,
but Tennyson has other ideas and
POLITICALLY speaks Of married brows,
In Turkey meeting eyebrows are
greatly admired, and the women use
ARTIFICIAL means to bring the brows to
this condition, and II art cannot In
ducs thin eyebrows TO grow they make
I'D By drawing a black line with paste
It would appear that the Greeks ad-
mired brows which almost met, and
the fashionable Inhabitants Of Rome
not only approved Of them, but re
sorted to pigments to make up the
lack which sometimes existed.
Some proverbs state that the person
whose eyebrows meet will always
have good luck, while others state ex.
actly the reverse. The Chinese say
that people whose eyebrows meet
can never hope to attain TO the dig
nifty Of minister Of state" and In
Greece OF today the man whose brows
meet Is said to-be vampire. while IN

Made Over Prescriptions.

'eThere is one loss sustained by drug
gists that very few people know
about" said the experienced clerk.
"That is in the prescriptions that have
to be made over, the same as clerks,
stenographers, writer's and artists, no
matter how painstaking. frequently
have to do their work over. The most
careful drug clerk In existence is bound
to make mistakes sometimes In meas
uring and mixing. He may pour in too
much Of some kind Of liquid or sift
in too much Of certain powder. In
most cases the overdose would not real
ly affect the value OF the medicine, but
the conscientious clerk isn't going to
take any chances on numbering any
body, 80 he throws away the whole
mixture and makes up another pre-
scription. New York Globe.

opinion that he was In midwinter, he

There he had long talks with friends

them he received the same story, that
Wagner seemed terrible in earnest.
| Finally Dreyfuss sought out James w.
Orris, the life-long friend of Wagner,
and the man whom Wagner consults In
all his business matters. Orris could
! give Dreyfuss hut little consolation. He
said that wagner seems determined 10

CAMBRIDGE, February 22.-Contrary
to the usual sustom of crew work at
this period of the season. the Harvard
Varsity squad was divided into three
crews this afternoon and each eight
was given a short spin on the river.
Coach Wray followed the crews in n
single shell and coached the individual
oarsmen. Varsity took longer row
than the other crews and covered near
~ four miles before returning " New
ell Boat House.
The Varsity showed surprising form
and finish for SO early in the season.
The men were even at the catch, re-
covered faultlessly and carried the
shell or even keel. The boat spaced
well and the men covered the course
in easy stretches.
