ON WHICH SIDE?
Where 20 Place Oneself When Walk.
ina With LADY.

"Can anybody tell me for sure" said
this young man. ION which side Of the
lady | should place myself when we
walk in the public street?"
Il have very clear notion about
this myself. say that the gentle.
man should walk at the lady's left
hand. she az his right. for this reason:
1T is the custom in this country for
people meeting 20 turn 10 the right.
Now, in doing this. man with n won.
an on his right arm would present
himself as a shield against crowding
or intrusion from anybody passing
from the opposite direction; II There
was collision Of crowding on the
passing side the man would be there
10 take the shock. and the woman
would be held always safely away
from IL, or even from the ruflling OF
her apparel.
But people tell me I'm foolish.
They say the man ought always 10
walk on the side OF the woman toward
the curb, no matter on which side OF
her that brings him. whether on the
right or the left. The danger they
say, is on the curb side, whore the
traffic is. the horses and trucks and
wagons and carriages and automobiles
and the mud spatters.
IL think the idea is wrong, and then
the mans keeping always on the
curb side involves more or less chang.
ing. See what happens when they
cross the street and walk on the other
side. Then the man has 10 run around
her, doesn't he? Change position then
10 get on the outside; and what IL
mo. ridiculous than 10 see man
prancing around lady 10 change
from one side to the other TO get next
the curb?
mo. sir; | don't see the curb the.
ory at all. My idea is that the man
should walk with the lady at his right
side always, that In this way he can be
her best protection and fender, But
would really like TO have somebody

Church Advertising.

Advertising church services has

but for some cause or other, thcro

Just why this should be so IS not ap-

why not use the same means 20 at

Gays OF business competition and

advertise IS not usually IN business
for long. And certainly the church
should be conducted on business lines.
Wherever the experiment OF church
advertising has been tried Il has
proved successful One Of the latest
examples IS from Barre, Vermont

Church. Rev. Mr.. Poole Is a firm be-

told the people what was going on in
the church. what the sermon would

Tip for Rabbit Hunters.

A West Duluth man says he has the
newest and best way to catch rabbits.
He finds creek running through a
swamp and follows it until he comes
TO a place where the rabbit tracks are
thick. Then he scrapes the snow off
a large surface of the ice and piles
bark and wood in the middle of the
space. In the evening just after
dark he lights the fire and leaves the
spot. In the morning he comes back
with a pack sack and picks up the
,abbits.
How does he get them?
1t is this way: When the rabbits
see the fire they get curious and go Out
on the ice. They sit around gazing at
the flames until the fire goes out,
never noticing that the surface of the
fee has melted, and after the heat sub.
sides they find they are frozen to the
ice and unable to move. The man
comes around with a club in the morn.
