Submarine Ball in Vienna.

A submarine ball is the latest at
traction devised by the Princess Met

opens the Vienna season with a ball
at her palace. This year she sought
the assistance of well-known scenic
artists, and the result was a scene
rivaling In splendor and ingenuity the
most gorgeous scene at pantomine

Health and Profits

Prof. Irving Fishes OF Yale has been
suggesting to the life insurance com
panies that they establish DEPART
ment OF health as a means of pro
longing the life of their policy holders
and thus of increasing their own
profits.
But there is danger in snch a propo-
sition. Besides being an unwarranted
interference with personal liberty. they
might eventually bring about such a
condition of health as to remove all
that fear of death which constitutes
the chief urge of life insurance.
1t would be much better if the life
insurance companies could invent
portable and well-discipined disease
which the agents could carry around
with them but not Use until the pros
pective victim absolutely refused to
yield to the ordinary Establishments
The disease should be so constructed
that it could readily be withdrawn as
soon as the victim capitulated

AS TO THE "spolLEDy CHILD.
He May Really Be Receiving the Beat
of Training.

Often, writes Woods Hutchinson, in
The Success Magazine, the spoiled
child is the one really best trained for
life. Real life, that is, not the sham
IraVesty upon it so carefully PLAYED in
he nursery and the schoolroom and
termed education The difference
between spoiled child and well-be-
haved one is chiefly matter of frank
ness of expression. The spoiled child
says right out just what he happens to
think and feel, and you hear and are
panied by his expressions of slepti-
elsm, of resentment, even of rebellion.
Nine times out of ten the model'
child feels exactly the same senti-
ments-but refrains from expressing
hem. When the spoiled child has ex-
pressed himself-it may be even inn

child may submit in silence, without
discussion or remonstrance, but you
may depend upon it that he will dis

Real Meaning OF "craxat.v

"Cravat," or rather the French
~cravate," means simply Croatian;
Hume, the historian. for instance,
speaks of certain troops as "Cravates
and Tartars, Hussards and Cossacs."
But the French borrowed the word for
the new neckwear introduced among
them in imitation of the linen scarfs
worn by the Croatian mercenaries
whom they saw during the Thirty Years
war. In English "cravat' has ranged
in meaning from tie to a comforter
and has varied also IN pronunciation,
both Pope and Dryden accenting the
word upon the first syllable.

Travel In Persia

In great contrast to the eXtraor-
ilnary progress made in trans portation
in Africa is the backwardness of
Persia, one of the oldest countries of
the world Its transportation facili-
lies are much the same as they We're in
the days of Alexander the Great and
Marco Polo. There are only six miles
of railroad in the whole country and
often these are not under operation
There are only three or four good dirt
roads, and almost all transportation is
done by pack trains. Camels, horse,
mules, donkeys and men are used
as beasts of burden. The traveller can
usually ride the post horses. but these
are rather poor animals and it is Gus
tomary TO buy or hire horses and pack
animals. This costs a native about
20 cents a day but no foreigner can
hope TO travel so cheaply. 1t would
be prodigal however, for anyone to
pay more than five dollars a day for
TWO servants. four or five animals ana
their feed.-Travel Magazine.

Advice to the Middle.Ane

An English physician declares that
persons of middle age or more should
not assume an upright position imme-
diately upon awakening from night
sleep. The danger from jumping out
of bed at once upon becoming CON
scious is a disturbance of the cir
culatory apparatus. At such time
he says, there is undoubtedly a Sc
we're strain upon the heart and blood
vessels. The blood pressure at such
time and under such circumstances
is intense, and is calculated to further
damage a weakened heart or arterial
system. Lie quiscent for ten to twenty
minutes upon awakening. BY doing
so, he says, persons will not suffer
from vertigo, a sense of fullness in
the head or staggering gait-all evil
dences of a profoundly disturbed cir
culation
