Balzac's Refuge.

Admirers of Balzac who visit Paris
will be Interested in Il museum special
ly devoted to souvenirs of the writer.
1t consists Of the quaint old house and
garden in the Rue Raynouard, at At,
which he inhabited many years and
where he wrote number of his best
works. Curiously enough, the house
recalls one Of the most difficult Pc
RODS of his life, when, it is said, he
was hunted and prosecuted by debtors
to an alarming extent. He selected
the house, it is stated, purposely as a
sort of harbor Of refuge from duns.
1t has no direct refuge from the Rue
Raynouard, and one has first to pass
through the hall of another house and
go down two flights Of stairs to a
courtyard below. The house. which is
a small building and which the French
would only call pavilion" is en-
tered from this courtyard and has a
little garden at the back. At one side
of the garden there is steep wall
down the side Of the hill, giving the
place the appearance of a little for

The Thumb,

The disparagement of the usefulness
and Importance of the thumb implied
In the expression, His fingers are all
thumbs" seems undeserved in view Of
the important part the thumb formerly
played In the social customs of the peo-
pie and the very important part it
plays In our own lives.
Lord Erskine, in his Institutes"
states that among certain of the lower
ranks In Scotland the final settlement
Of a bargain was always signalized by
the licking and joining of thumbs.
Selden, In "Titles of Honor" says
that kissing the thumb was mark Of
servility. The clergy, the rich and
the great, were in receipt of this honor
from their tradcsmen.
From the remotest days of antiquity
the practice Of licking the thumb has
been regarded as solemn pledge or
promise, existing, according TO Tacitus
and other authorities, among the
Goths, the Iberians and the Moors, and
1t may also be traced through success
slve periods down to our own times

lady in the case bought a diamond
tiara next day that was mentioned In
all the papers. She could have paid
the bill thousand times over, but
she needed the diamonds first. l paid
the seamstress."
There was an uneasy movement up
and down the room, and for some rea-
son all eyes were directed on Mrs.
Somerville. She was conscious of the
fact, but with a sang froid that did her
credit she put up her lorgnette and
stared at q picture on the wall.
81 happened in at milliner's," said
Sydney, with smile "Queer place

Can't say that was looking for hat,
but In searching out subjects for re-
form you have to drop into various
places. Milliner nice little widow,
All her capital in the business. Just
received q letter from wholesale
house threatening suit on bills over
due. Her customers all rich, but they
didn't pay cash down. Don't pay In
three or six months. In fact, they
didn't pay for year or so and only
when forced to. l have seen many or
the hats that were bought there that
way. Relieved the distress and passed
on"
Every lady in the room except the
Hon. Mrs. Spofferd had on an expen-
sive hat. Each lady started to look at
the other, but gave 1t up and cast
down her eyes with proper modesty.
They might not all have known the
milllner referred to, but they had
thoughts. After a painful silence Mr..
Gerald continued:
Happened to meet the butler OF
house where l frequently call. just
happened, you know. Down in the
mouth; looked bilious. AS a would
be reformer l spoke to him and got his
story. Lady of the mansion hadn't
paid his wages for five months and
had borrowed his savings besides. He
dared to speak to her about it, and she
had sent him packing. Saw the same
lady buying 5000 ruby ring the other
day"
Every lady In the room helplessly
glanced at the hands of every other
lady. A poodle dog belonging to one
of them seemed to be the only thing In
the room at case.
Happened to call on florist" said
the obliging reformer when the silence
had endured to the painful point; 'just
happened so. One of his statements of
accounts sent out to lady had been
returned with very sharp note. The
account was two years old, and be-
cause he sought to collect 1t the debtor
informed him that she should take her
patronage elsewhere. 1t was only one
case out of a score. Sympathized with
the florist and passed on. Happened
across discharged coachman, dis
charged for limiting that he wanted his
wages. Helped him out with five
dollar bill. Happened to run across a
governess in the same fix. That's all.
Good evening, ladies'"
For two minutes after the reformer
disappeared no one spoke. Then one
lady after another rose up to go and,
turning to the honorable widow, work
cd up a smile and said:
"Isn't Sydney Gerald just too charm
ing for anything And how awful Of
people not to pay their bills!'

A MODERN IMPROVEMENT

Three doctors were operating on
a man for appendicitis. After the
operation was completed one of the
doctors missed a small sponge. The
patient was re-opened, the sponge
found within and the man sewed up
again. Immediately the second
doctor missed a needle. Again
the patient was opened and closed.
Then the third doctor missed a pair
of scissors. Gentlemen" said the
victim, as they were about to open
him up again, for heavens sake;

TWO ARE RELEASED.
TWO AXE RELEkASED.
Scott and Killingsworth Were Both
Cut Loose This Morning.

Manager Cooley this morning de-
cided he had no further use for two
of his pitchers, Scott and Killings
worth, and both were handed their re-
lease papers. Neither showed any
form in the practice games, and with
three or four of the players working
in great style, it was decided that they
were useless to the team Killings
worth was a spit ball pitcher. but he
failed to get any sort of control. Scott
never did show very much in the way
of an assortment.
This is the only reduction that will
be made before the opening of the
season. All the other pitchers will be
retained for awhile at least. Three or
four are in condition to start the sea-
son. The remainder will be retained
to throw to the batters. On account
of the weather here being too cold
until this week, the pitchers have not
been able to cut loose when throwing
to the batters, and consequently the
hitting of the team is below par right
now. With the present warm weather
the young pitchers can let out and give
the batters some practice

Very few of the fans probably were
aware of the real reason of the down.
fall of the Regulars in Sundays game.
1t was McManus, the. veteran catcher,
through his superb handling of the
young pitchers. Nearly every batter
on the Regular team was outguessed
by the crafty catcher. Incidentally,
McManus will do the most of the work,
and it's dollars to doughnuts that he Is
just as good as any in the Western
league.

Cutfielder, who was turned over to the

by Des Moines.
Lower and Rice are showing about
as good form as any of the pitchers on

as the stars of the team.
