CHASED AWAY THE WASHERS.
American Girls Wit Works Better
Than a Strong Right Arm.

American girls, whose ideas of indie.
pendence do not agree with those of
the French people, are bothered by
Washers whenever they attempt to go
about unescorted in Paris. No French
girl whose parents have a proper re-
gard for her is ever allowed to do such
thing, and the idea has become i'm
planted In the native mind that any
young woman who appears alone is at
least unconventional.

TACT when she Travelled around Paris
as she was accustomed to in New
YORK. All manner of men smirked at
her, lifted their hats, tried to act as
her escort and endeavored to begin
conversations.
But every one faded suddenly when
she gave him her anti-masher treat

opposea Women Iudnes.

A writer In one of the Eastern pa
pers says that 1t is mistake TO think
that women judges could do better
work in the juvenile courts. He is the
secretary Of the Society for the Pre-.
ventton of Cruelty to Children In New
York and ought to be able to form an
opinion on the subject, and his con.
clusion from facts, not theory" he
says, lis that girls would rather take
man than a woman into their con-
fidence and female Judge in a juve-
nile court would be as unsuccessful as
ornamental. Women in the construct

not successful.

Justice Was a plpIomat.

practiclng law in Winchester he had a
case before local judge involving the
ownership of pig. Testimony was
submitted and the justice reserved

The justice was a candidate for
mayor Of the town, and Watson and
the opposing counsel thought they
saw an opportunity for a little fun.
"See here. Judge" said Watson,
meeting the justice on the street one
day, unless get judgment In my
favor in that pig case I'm going to op-

in the same strain.

SHOWS THE HUMAN VIBRATIONS.
Frenchman Who Thinks He Has
Photographed the Emotions.

DR.. Baraduc of Paris has been lee
turing, says the Health Record, at the
Theosophioal society's room in London
on human vibration. He showed many
photographs Of these alleged vibra-
lions by placing sensitized aim on
one of the nerve centers.
He usually places the film at night
and leaves it till morning. The vibra-
tions of the subject throw the nitrate
OF silver on the film into correspond
ing form Of vibration, which is found
registered on the film when developed
Just as the light reflected from an
object through the lens of a camera
registers the form of that object.
DR.. Baraduc had also many pictures
taken in the ordinary way by means
OF the camera. In these various states
OF emotion are shown. Sudden anger
appears as a sort of whirling shower
OF sparks and vapor. A state Of high
spiritual contemplation produces a
misty globe of light some way above
the sitter's head
In one picture the etheric double of
woman kneeling In prayer is shown.
According to the doctor the etheric
cosmic forces are continually stream
Ing into US and becoming individual
lied, or streaming out, being disindi.
Ndualized, mingling again with the
general stream.
One photograph showed the vibra.
ton OF telspathic communication
some had lines in ribbons Of light,
showing attachment. In one, taken
as the doctors wife passed away, the
line or bond which had always ap
peared between them is seen for the
nrst time broken.

USED PHONE TO BRING THEM.
Minister'S Successful Method Of Gath
tna Congregation.

One Of the most difficult PROPOSE
lions that a new pastor has to face
when he takes charge OF a church that
has fallen OF In attendance and gen.
orally gone to seed, Is to fll the pews
and build up the membership anew.
Not long ago this problem was solved
In q Brooklyn church. Before taking
hold the new pastor had planned a
scheme which he thought would work
moderately well. but which. in the end
far exceeded his hopes in its results.
A few days before the eventful fret
Sunday he called upon a dozen of the
pillars OF the church" and asked
them each to call up on the telephone
early on Sunday morning a half dozen
at least Of their friends, and not only
ask them especially to come to church
that morning, but also to telephone
the same request to as many of thai-
own friends as they could. They ali
promised to do so, and when the cler
gyman reached his church that SIM
day he found 1t packed He had pre-
pared a rousing sermon and every one
went away well satisfied.
This method of getting a congrega.
ton was continued along practically
the same lines for months. AS a re-
suit OF the drumming up" by teIe.
phone the size Of the congregation in.
creased enormously and the member
ship is greater than it ever was be-
fore. As there is not room for more
in the old church they now are talk
ing Of building new one, and the pas.
tors salary is $4,000 a year bigger
than it was when he took hold.
