LIFTING THE HAT.

A young man, not wishing to do any
thing that was not agreeable to the laws
of etiquette, sent the following ques-
ton to the editor of Kansas paper:
"Please tell me when and where are,
or is the correct time for gentleman
to lift or remove his hat?' And here
is the reply he received:
"Without consulting authorities of
etiquette-in fact, giving it to you off
hand. so to speak-we should say at
the following times and on the follow
ing occasions respectively the hat
should be removed or lifted as circum-
stances indicate: When hopping the
brow, when taking bath, when eating,
when going to bed, when taking up a
collection, when having the hair trim
med, when being shampooed, when
standing on the head. -

Twain's New Home.
Mark Twain s new home stands on
an eminence that commands a sweep
ing view of the $50 acres of meadow
and woodland that comprise his estate.
Beautifully shaded and velvety lawns,
dotted here and there by flaming flower
beds, and the angular and severe shrub
berry that characterizes the decorative
scheme of the general run of Italian
gardens, stretch forth from the villa,
which is a replica of the Florentine
Villa. La CappOneina, which Mr. Glenn
ems late wife so dearly loved and
where two of the happiest years of
their lives were spent. La Capponcina
is now the home of D'Annunzio, the
Italian poet.
The main building is a rectangular
pavilion with wings on either side, the
walls of eream-colored stucco and the
low hanging Italian roof covered with
eOpper-eolored tiles. Across one end is
the living room, with windows on three
sides and walls paneled in dark wood.
The fine, big pipe organ, previously
in Mr.. Clemens s various homes, is
built in the unlighted end of the room.
In the center is huge fireplace, which
Mr.. and Mrs. Clemens bought many
years ago in Scotland. This room
opens on the Italian loggia, with a
sweeping view of the beautiful rolling
country. Here Mr.. Clemens and his
daughter spend much time together,
although his study is remotely distant
Entering the house by a main door

hall, with billiard-roOm to the right,

main doorway. Three long windows
in the dining room open on terrace,
overlooking the Italian garden. Here a
number of small spruce trees, resem-
bling the cvpreSSeS of italy recall the

der date of Friday November 10th last in which
indeed surprised to the statement that the
Chalmers Detroit ST 10000 car made by the De-
trot Thomas factory. This statement evidently
made through the part of the person max
ing it who probably supposed that the E. r Thomas
Detroit Co. still in existence. This, however, is
the fact my active interest in the E. R Thomas
Detroit Co. ceased nearly year ago, which time
the Company dissolved and has been in
istence since. The Chalmers Detroit Co.
lied to take the business of the E. R. Thomas
Detroit Co., and although still have financial in
terest in the Chalmers Detroit Co., have active
interest therein and have had since its formation
my entire time and attention being given the active
management of the E. R. Thomas Motor Co., of this
city.
My reason for writing you is that wish to pre-
vent any confusion your part that of your
the relationship existing between this
Company and the Chalmers-Detroit Co. As stated
above they entirely separate and distinct
operating along entirely different lines.
Trusting this may be sufficient to disabuse your
mind of any doubts remaining in this matter. am,

OPEN SEWING SCHOOL
Poor Children to be Clothed by
Salvation Army.

The Salvation Army officers, Adjt.
and Mrs. De CARTS. are very anxious
to assist the poor in this city with
their struggle in life, and to do so
they have opened a sewing school at
the Salvation Army Hall for poor
mothers and their children. Old
clothes are cut up and made over for
the children, and in this way the Off
GERS expect to put good. substantial
clothes upon the children, so as those
who are unable to go to Sunday
school because they have no clothes
will have no excuse on these lines in
the future.
Adjt. and Mrs. De CARTS are very
anxious to have the cooperation OF
those in better circumstances to as.
sist them in carrying out their plans.
One of the ways you can help is by
sending in to the Army headquarters
all your old clothes. or remnants OF
any kind. or send a postal to the
Adjutant and they will be called for:
or phone 800 Black, and the Army will
do the rest.
