No wonder the masculine mind finds
so much fun in the present style of
wearing the hair. There have been
many good stories told of the elusive
little puffs with which the modern head
feminine is adorned, but none comes up
TO the new one-a product of the past
week. The hostess, herself one of the
most hospitable and charming of wo-
men, doesn't quite know what to make
of the donation she received at her
home, for she is blessed with a wealth
OF tresses of her own, and the cosy lit
tic puff. which was left in the hallway,
would in no wise be acceptable to her.
The funny part was any number of the
late guests had a chance to view the
tiny adornment. and there was quite
little trying-On party after the general
call and match locks, of course she can
have it, as the hostess. as has been
stated, has no real use for it.

A party OF young HOLSTERS who hct
been up to the lakes got aboard an
accommodation train In southern In
diana a few months ago. They were
mostly young fellows from the farms,
and real cut-ups. Having been away
from home over night, they were

wanted you to know, and they took
possession of that sleepy old coach
in real coltish fashion. I've seen that

the aisle from me, though, occurred q
rather Illuminating incident.
Two of the excursionists, a young
man and his STEADY company" seat

who travels for book house in New
York, and who is really one OF the
NEST cultivated and urbane men on
the road. Young Hayseeds lighted
a rank cigar, and began to smoke, to
The evident distress Of the girl and
several ladies near by. In minute
Jenkins leaned forward and tapped the
smoker on the shoulder.
Pardon me, my friend, but this 10

You darst smoke on excursion
trains" came back the rather belliger.
cnt answer.
"Ah," very politely, but this Is q
regular train. not an excursion train.
And you will find smoking car for

of contempt for Jenkins ignorance,
the pumpkin retorted Huh! But

Woman's Education.

Just as certain college professors
and magazine writer's are well under
way In the work OF proving that the
higher education Of . women Is all
wrong and that the general system OF
female education is defective in that
II does not teach women how to be
good wives and mothers, along comes
DR.. Lyman Abbott with the assertion
that 1t is not the proper object Of edu-
cation to furnish q woman with Ian.
tern wherewith to aid her In q search
for husband. I'VE have now got

the idea that the object of 9 woman's
education is to make her better Or
nament for the parlor or more capa-
BILE hired servant. A woman should no
more be educated to be wife and
mother than a man should be educated
TO be a husband and father. She
should be educated to be a woman,

Hope for Central America.

The international bureau Of central
American republics announces a COM
mendable purpose. 1t is proposed to
make uniform the civil, commercial
and criminal legislation Of the five sig
natory republics, to establish a uniform
customs anud monetary system, and to
work for the general development OF
commerce and industry. The success
OF the effort would be seriously doubt
ed were reliance placed upon the sta
bility OF central American purpose
alone. But, says the Boston Herald,
back of this is the spirit Of the inter.
national bureau of American republics.
and particularly the governments OF
the United States and Mexico, each Of
which is determined, for selfish as well
as unselfish interest, that constant tur.
moil in central America shall be
checked. The five republics will be
given a chance 10 work out their own
salvation, and good government will
be assured the moral backing Of larger
powers and more substantial support

Folly is a fertile plant and bears
fruit for long time. The French are
discovering the truth Of this in the
Generalization of their navy. Mons.
CASTOR Thomson, the minister OF mar
inc, has resigned from the cabinet
after the chamber OF deputies con-
demned his department because OF the
explosion on the warship lena, in 1907,
when more than hundred officers and
men were killed. There have been
more than 30 explosions on French
warships within the past two years,
and the officers ond men are said to be
completely demoralized. The demon
alization. however, did not begin under
the administration of Mons. Thomson,
but under that of his predecessor, who
issued regulations which destroyed
discipline on the ships. For the good
Of all, the commander Of a battleship
even more than the commander OF .
merchant vessel, must be an autocrat
and any policy which undermines his
authority weakens the efficiency OF the
ships crew.

The Goodwill Habit,

A habit Of holding a kindly attitude
of mind toward everybody has a pow.
erful influence upon the character. 1t
lifts the mind above petty jealousies
and meannesses; 1t encircles and en-
Iarges the whole life. When we meet
people, no matter IL they are stran'
gers, we feel a certain kinship with
and friendliness for them, II we have
formed the goodwill habit. In other
words, says the New York Weekly, the
kindly habit, the goodwill habit.
makes us feel more sympathy fol
everybody. And II we radiate this
helpful, friendly feeling, others will
reflect 1t back to us. On the other
hand, II we go through life with cold,
selfish mental attitude, caring only for
our own, always looking for the main
chance, only thinking Of what will fur
Their our own interest, our own com
fort, totally Indifferent to others. this
attitude will, after while, harden the
feelings and the affections, and we
shall become dry, pessimistic and I'M
interesting.

"PAWTXW! {.


the English way in everything Is the
only way, and her comments upon
what she saw, made in a loud enough
voice for her neighborhood to hear,
would have been maddening were we
not all so highly amused at her.
The climax came when the whole
trainload OF people had to change cars
at little junction, where there were
few conveniences except lunch coun-
ter. Into this most of us had piled,
and were ornamenting the stools near
est to the grub when the door opened
and familiar voice called, "Pawtah!
Pawtah!"
No porter responded, for the simple
reason that there was none: and after
madam had again cried, "Pawtah!
Pawtah!" this time more peremptorily
than before, good-natured drummer
near the door stepped up and, raising
his hat, asked If he could be Of any
assistance. Giving him cold stare
through her lorgnette, the old dame
demanded, Are you the pawtah"
The drummer confessed that he
wasn't, but that every American man
was at the service Of any lady In
need.
"Oh, but I'd ever so much rather
have the pawtah," was the discomfort
ing response.
II know 1t, madam, but ] regret to
say that there is no porter here. Can
l help you?" Quite ungraciously the
snorting traveller, muttering comments
aloud about how much better they do
things in England, allowed him to
transfer her IS pieces Of hand luggage
to the other train. Then, when he
had finished, she offered him a tip!
Anybody who has been a thousand
miles from his own doorstep can null
tiply instances of this sort indefinite
". For the moment, though, l am in
terested In the truth that provincial
ism is one of the great factors in the
worlds religious life. 1t is petty-mind-
edness that has filled the earth with
local deities, or with partial and made
quate ideals Of Supreme Being. Go
where you will and you will find local
customs being practiced, instead OF
n supernatural religion. Provincial
creeds take the place Of universal
truth. Puritan ancestors are followed
instead OF the Almighty. We all seem
bound to worship God, If at all, &C.
cording to Luther, or Wesley, or Cal
win, or Claiming, or Campbell, or
some still smaller man.
As have sized up the situation, the
greatest barrier encountered by the
bigness of the Christian religion Is
the smallness Of human nature. Seems
to me that the Founder Of Christianity
was done to death by provincials be-
cause he preached gospel too big for
his time. Ever since then his true rep
resentatives have been trying to pull
men and women out Of their two-by
four state of mind into the broader
view, deeper sympathy and longer
reach of a universal religion. The
spirit Of provincialism and the spirit
Of Christianity are dea6Iy enemies.
