goula. Miss, for an appropriation by Con-
gress to indemnify him for the loss of his
title to part of Round Island and to
thereby enable him to collect series OF
photographs of Halley's comet taken
during 1909 and 1910 and observe that
comets return to perihilion In 1910.
Your undersigned petitioner, loyal
citizen of the United States. an humble
amateur observer of current astronomical
events, formerly, during the 9TH decade
of last century, land and colonization
agent Of the Dubuque and Sioux city X
r. of Iowa, of which the late Morris Il.
Jesup Of New York was the president ana
Theodore Roosevelt, father of the Presl-
dent Roosevelt, was one of the directors;
respectfully asks Congress for an ap-
preparation of $1,000 TO indemnify him
for the loss of his title to part of Round
Island in the Bay of Pascagoula and or
all his work and expense incurred in pro-
curing q confirmation of the title to said
island by Congress, thereby relieving his
present financial straishts and enable him
to collect a series OF photographs of Hal
ley's comet obtained in this country and
abroad during the years 1908. 1909 and
1910 and observe its course during the
period of its visibility to the naked eye
in 1910.
Your petitioner, whose self-acquired
knowledge Of astronomy and means of In
formation are very limited. is especially
interested in the impending return of that
comet, because, according to his mother 8
story, one early morning in October, 1873,
when ten-month-old baby in his
mothers arms, she was greatly frightened
by a sudden unexpected sight of that
comet, just rising over the roof Of his
native place at Armstadt. Germany. Aft
erwards. his mother often told him that
his baby eyes noticed 1t also and that he
nearly Jumped out of her arms trying to
reach up for it and catch 1t with his
baby hands.
Hence, your petitioners special inter-
est in that comet, which he has studied
for several years past as well as his Inn
tied knowledge and means would permit,

) More silence on Mrs. Jobsons part.
Now" went on Mr.. Jobson, oracularly,
when these scientific chaps write any
thing of a warningful nature appertain-
ing to the doings and habits of men folks.
why, they've got a respectful audience.
Not only that, they've got an audience
that pays some attention to what they
say and write. When men are scientific
ally put wise to it that certain things and
customs in which they indulge are hy-
CHEMICALLY and sanitarily wrong, so to
speak, why. they promptly proceed to cut
such doings and customs out. Men have
got some decent regard for the convic-
tons Of scientific men. But women? Huh!
D'jevver know of a woman who paid the
slightest attention to any Of these warn
ings from scientists?'
If Mrs JobSon did know OF any such
instances she didn't say so. Stands to
reason-that is, to the reason OF human
beings that possess the power of reason
ing-that these corsetS and things that
women wear, out of pure pigheaded van
ity, are bound to knock their health and
their tempers and their dispositions and
things galley-west," went on Mr.. Jobson
with his air of f1nality. Huh! and the
worst Of 1t is that women think they re
making a hit with men folks when they
wear all Of these scandalous health
SCATTERING things. That's where they're
camping out. though / can tell you that
Did the Venus de Milo wear corsets? Not
sos you could notice it. You bet she
didn't Had too much sense for that. And
/ s'pose maybe the Venus de Milo was
a homely locker, eh? / spose she was as
ugly as a mud fence? 1 reckon she was

such a bum locker that she wouldn't even
pass in A crowd, huh?'
Mrs Jobson may have entertained an
opinion with respect to the pulchritude of
the Grecian lady of antiquity. But if she
did she didn't say so.
ITS WONDER" Mr.. Jobson went on,
that you women wouldn't get back to
nature, anyhow. It's wonder that You
don't at least concede that when Proyi-
dence designed you Providence knew
something about the business of design
ing. What dye spose Providence knew
about waSp-waisted woman? Dye
s'pose Providence ever contemplated, for
one-millonth of second. a woman with
the shape Of an hour-glass on whatnot?
HUH"
Mrs. Jobson, plugging away. at her
fancy work, didn't appear eager to COM
ment upon the designs of Providence.
Huh! and you women are always get
ting in cracks went on Mr.. Jobson
''about that custom Chinese women have
of bandaging their feet and warping 'em
all out of shape Fact is, there's a but
tinski society Of American women who
make it their busness-which it's none
of their bedinged business at that-to tell
Chinese women that they've got no right
to bind their feet and that they ought to
cut 1t out And yet I'll bet a hat every
one Of these women who belong to this
buttnski society wears shoes about two
sizes too small for her and with heels on
'em about half a foot high
Mrs. Jobson kept right on fancy work

internal high-heeled shoes you wear"

chopped his gay little speech. The motor,
without bit of warming, skipped four or
five explosions and then began to pound.

Kerr Hardie refused, however, to be

the interviewer offhand what actually

interviewer. All interviewers are required
to submit this question to distinguished
foreigners although everybody knows. of
course, that 1t doesn't make a particle OF

as distinctive a feature of Us as Chinese

However, he only turned a somewhat
peevish countenance upon and began
to feel a lot of little valves and hewgags
and dinkerinos sticking out of the engine.
His feeling OF those things must have
helped some, for the humping suddenly
ceased and she went along for bit with

of the former NAVY.
