Phonoqraph TeIephones.

Some time ago magnetic phono-
graph was invented, which the IN

with the telephone to receive and re-
cord messages in the absence of the
owner of the phone. The objection to
this system was that person calling
up a number and receiving no re-
Spouse was not inclined to deliver his
message to something SO intangible as
an unresponsive and apparently mani.
mate machine at the other end of the

The Decision
Of the Princess
By w. NEWMAN FLOWER

The princess came forward with
quick steps that never faltered her
heart beat no faster than it was wont;
there was no fash of nervousness in
her eyes.
You wish to see me-" she said to
the prime minister. She rested her
finger tips on the polished ebony
table, and drew herself up to her full
height
please be quick If It is state bust
ness. You know l go for my ride at
IL. You have two minutes left
Two minutesl" he laughed. Two
minutes, madam, will not suffice, un-
lees you retract a very foolish step
you have made"
do my people, then, claim so great
q favor that must forego the only
pleasure left to a princess In order to
satisfy them?"
Don't jest, madam, 1 beg" The
prime minister adjusted his pince-nez
and began to study the paper in his
hand. "A national crisis has arrived
"a crisis you have brought about.
Your refusal to marry Prince Fer
dinand has excited friction between
this country and the kingdom of Ell
ruria, and we have received this morning
what is equivalent to an ultimatum

by your decision to cancel your re-
fusal. Madam, l beg
Princess Guilda cut him short by
rising to her feet, a flush of anger on
her face. For a moment she hesitated;
then she held out her hands as il in
pleading:
Think" she exclaimed; think for
one moment what it means to me.
Consider my age-I am but 24-and
you ask me to wed a man who is old
enough to be my father. You are free;
your marriage was a marriage of
love" (The minister remembered that
he had married theatrical star, and
bit his lip Don't you know what a
love match means to a woman-the at
tainment of all that is dear in life,
just as the welding of power is the
summit of success to you? You ask
me to marry. a man l do not love, a

means no benefit to the poor. You

that the man who fritters away on his
horses and wines more than he pays to
the realm shall be saved few pence
per annum!
Madam, think again." the prime
minister broke in.

Not What Il Was For.

The recent sale of the library OF
William Cullen Bryant by the execu-
tors of his daughters will has ELECTED
an amusing "reminiscences of the late
Miss Julia Bryant in her childhood
An aged lady, who was for a time a
neighbor of the poet and his family,
had been shown into the parlor of the
house, where she was making her first
call
She found the small Julia seated on
the floor with an illustrated volume
of Milton In her lap. Although she
knew, of course, that it must be the
artist, not the author, in whom at
that early age the child was inter
ested, she asked, genially, by way of
beginning an acquaintance:
Reading poetry already, little
girl?"
Julia looked up and regarded her
gravely. Then she explained. with an
air of politely correcting inexcusable
ignorance:
People don't read poetry. Papas
write poetry, and mammas sing po-
etry. and little girls learn TO say
poetry, but nobody reads poetry
That isn't what it's for.-Youth's Com
panion-

why Franz the fiddler allowed you

spOnded. "and, if he has the money to

All About a Pie.


Con, the famous London barrister.
has a humor peculiarly his own He
looks at the world in a half-amused.
half-indulgent manner sometimes very
annoying to his friends. One day.
when in town, he dropped into a res
taurant for lunch. 1t was a tidy, al
though not pretentious establish
ment. After a good meal he called
to the waitress and inquired what kind
of pie she had.
"Applepiemincepieraisinpieblueberry

glibly.

Would you mind doing It once
more" he asked.
The waitress looked her disgust. and
started in a third time, pronouncine
the words in deiantly clear tone.

she had finished. For the life of me

HER SHARE IN THE OWNERSHIP.
Something Proud Young FatherSeemed
In Danger of Forgetting.

He picked up the baby, he hoped.
just as If picking babies up were an
everyday occurrence. In point of fact,
he remembered that an elderly lady
had told him in his youth that cats,
when lifted, like to be supported with
a hand held underneath, and he
thought that this principle would work
out with babies, and it did. And hav-
ing awakened Louise, he handed her
back, triumphant, to Constance, diffus-
ing an air of competency, as though he
could help rear any number OF chill
dren at once. At any rate, she was
comforted. Whether he knew much
or little, he stood back of her.
1t may be that Johns success as a
father led him to seem vainglorious
when he was not. He certainly put
on airs about the baby. 1t was not
long after this that he lured two old
friends ostensibly to dinner. His in
vitation did not include a visit to
Louise, and, of course, it was merely
an accident that she should have been
awake at the time when they were
there. AS matter OF fact, she usually
awoke at that hour. but the men didn't
know this-or perhaps they wouldn't
have come. Men have a becoming shy
ness about babies, and these were
bachelors.
John had arrived at that state of ar
roSance when he actually went over
to the crib, and asking no ones per-
mission, picked Louise up and dis
played her to the two men. who were
as embarrassed as a dog in the pres
ence of June bug. He laid her down
again with an expert hand, and osten-
tatiously changed the subject, to show
that he was not among those fathers
who pushed their children down other
peoples Threats. But his manner
said:
This is my baby; and when you fell
lows can show me anything as inter
esting you will be of value to So
ciety."
1t was after they had gone that Con-
stance came up. and put her hands on
Johns shoulders, and said:
After all, you know, it's my baby.

COVER UP DEFECTS
REASON FOR CLOTHING THE HUI
MAN FORM DIVINE.
According to Writer in London Peri
odicai, Vanity Is Responsible for
Garments Prescribed by
Present Fashion.

II was the opinion Of Cetawayo. a
noble African monarch who despised
all garments, that we took to clothing
to keep ourselves clean, because we
were too lazy to wash ourselves. This,
however, was an error on his majesty's
part The simple fact is that we
adopted clothes because we were
ashamed OF our appearance, says a
writer in London Ideas.
To begin with, leg coverings were
invented to conceal bony knees and
shapeless calves. Boots were artfully
devised to curtain off ugly feet from
the public gaze and silence loud teers.
The hat, it is easy to see, was the
crafty invention of some frivolous
patriarch with bald head. who was
anxious to hide it in order that he
could cut a youthful figure with the
ladies'.
Gloves were devised by pretentious
women of the lower middle class in
Herculaneum, who wanted to pose as
gentlefolk. Having to do their own
housework, they hit upon this ingeni-
GUS plan of covering the redness and
roughness of their hands. Thus they
were able to cut dash and delude So
ciety into the belief that they kept
servants. Hence the name kid"
gloves.
Socks derived their name originally
from shocks, as describing the effect
frequently produced on the mind by
the spectacle of feet in their naked
size and simplicity.
Shirts, and. after them, doublets and
coats, were resources to cover pigeon
breasts, hollow chests and curved
spines. The collar is a development
of the silken scarf or bandage, first
worn by that hideous old porcupine.
Rameses l., pharaoh Of Egypt, to con-
ceal boil on his neck.
Coming to the face. we find the
veil. This was introduced owing to
the annoyance occasiOned to King
Ptolemy by the countenance of one of
his ladies. She developed a squirt,
and one day the king, being uncertain
whether she was cycling him or not,
shouted furiously: Cover that WON
ans facet" The offensive countenance
was instantly obscured by a window
curtain torn down by a resourceful
courtier. And thus wells for OBJ
jectionable faces rapidly became pop
ular.
Now, we have been told, and are
constantly being told again, by count
less scientists, that in strength and
beauty we are a deteriorating race.
Our forefathers-and mothers-had
their little flaws in figure, but, COM
pared with us, they were perfect
Veluses and Adonises.
A high authority says that scarce
ly one man in a hundred is properly
proportioned, and most women would
be shapeless without the cunning
curves of their stays" Another stern
authority says: I'VE are a physically
degenerate people, round shouldered,
sunken Joined. narrow chested, crook
ed ribbed. splay footed, knock kneed,
short winded and weak backed"
So, on the whole, clothes are not
only desirable, but indispensable. To
cast them off and permit an astonished
universe to see us as we really are
would be a great mistake.

REsTFUL TO EYES AND NERVES.
Green Is One Of Natures Cures for
Worry and Fatigue.

'Tf the whole Of London were
painted green it would have a wonder
ful effect upon the health and spirits
us Londoners," said one OF the lead
ing specialists to a Mirror writer
"Eyesight and health are most closely
connected, and among town dwellers
eyesight is steadily deteriorcting.
Green is one Of natures cures for
worry and fatigue. Watch a man who
is worrying or tired out and see how
often he will wander to a window
from which he can gaze on a tree in
leaf. Instinctively his eyes seek the
restful green of the foliage. A great
deal of the good obtained from a visit
to the country Is from the incessant
environment of the green fields and
green leaves.
"A green room, too, is a splendid
thing. l know OF a case of a popular
actress who could never understand
why it was that In a certain room in
her house she could always rest so
much better than In any other one.
She mentioned the fact to me one day,
and pointed out to her that the paper
and furniture were entirely green"
