SKINNY" COT EVEN
FAT MANS MIRTH BROUGHT TO
A SUDDEN END.
Things Moved When This Particular
Worm Turned-Aiways Well to
Know Just with Whom
You Are Joking.

The thin man waited on the corner
for the car. His overcoat was tightly
buttoned across his narrow chest, and
its collar jutted out behind like the
riln of a funnel. His hat was pulled
down until it rested on his ears and
looked as though it had been intended
for some one with a head four sizes
larger than his. His eyes were red
and his nose was blue, and his mus
tache was about half icicles with his
frozen breath. Under each arm he
held an assortment of packages which
he was going to take downtown with
him.
The fat man came clustering along
and stood on the corner also. His
overcoat was thrown open to the wind.
The thin man looked at him with
eyes that had the appearance of two
shoe buttons.
The fat man looked at the thin man
and wide, joyous smile stretched it.

Some snow, amt it?" he shouted,
jovially, his fat sides shaking as he
contemplated the hunched-over atti-
tude of the thin man. Some wind,

you like it? Why don't you learn to
like it? s. long as we've got it we
might as well like it, huh? Gee! You're
a sight, you are. You look like ten
cent thermometer, you do! Wish you
could see yourself standing there, with
those bundles in your arms. 1 bet
your fingers are so cold they burn your
gloves! And your nose-say, it looks
like a spoiled pickle. And look at your
hat! Say, the snow isn't dom thing
but slidin' off 1t and down your coat
collar! Well, you are sight to be-
hold! Ha, ha! Ho, no! Hi! hill"
He shook and shook and laughed
and laughed until he had to lean
against the lamp post to support him.

FEW OPPORTUNITIES IN CHINA.
Learned Professions Offer Little In
ducement to Foreigners.

There are three professions in par
ticular which are attracting the attan
ton of foreigners in China said Dr.
B. NJ Perkins of Shanghai in a recent
interview Dr. Perkins has been in
China over ten years and is in the Uni,
ted States on visit to friends and
relatives.
Those three professions are law,
medicine and dentistry. The Chinese
people have had all three for ages, but
their practice has been different from
that in other lands, and it will be some
time before Chinese competition in any
of them will be felt except through
foreign training and as a result of the
efforts of foreigners.
Chinese medical men have not been
in very good standing among their
own people for many years.
Chinese dentists have done more
than their fellows in the medical line
and, all things considered, Chinese
dentistry, while it cannot compare
with modern dentistry as practiced in
America and Europe, especially in the
former, is far above what might have
been expected.
There are no requirements for ad.
mission to the bar in China, for the
reason that there is no bar. Each
consular court has it's rules for admis.
sion, and when an attorney is allowed
to practice in one court it is taken as
an international discrimination If any
other consular court does not extend
like courtesy.
There is but limited field for the
law in China at best, and most of 1t IS
already occupied by men who are well
established, whose business is pro
tected by the intense conservatism OF
the dominant British. 1t can safely
be said that there is little to encour
age young man entering upon the
practice of law in Chinese port
Unless he is able to buy his way into
an old established firm his struggle
for business is fully as keen as il
would have been at home, and he has
neither the field to work in nor the re
strictions to guide him and protect
him from mistakes as he has at home

Suggests Lunch Menus.

A young woman, a public school
teacher in a New York suburb, has
formed a lunch club for the mothers
of her pupils, to assist them in putting
up suitable school lunches for their
children. She noticed that the majority
Of her pupils brought a few cents to
school each day and with the money
bought their lunch at a shop near
by. AS a rule they bought the very
things they should not have. One deli
cate little girl made her lunch on three
pickles and a roll another on two
chocolate cellars, for which she paid
FIVE cents, and a boy VINO seemed to
have a healthy appetite would get a
ham sandwich. The teacher, believing
the trouble to be ignorance rather
than laziness, has prepared series
of short talks to mothers on the need
of good food for the growing child.
She will also give recipes and suggests
lunch menus, show how the lunch
boxes may be packed attractively and
when necessary teach the way the
various dishes should be cooked.

Plans to Cure by Music.

That healing by music will ulti-
mately be accepted as the panacea for
hundreds of cases of disease which
now battle physicians is the belief of
Boston woman, Miss Christine
Brown, who has founded a new health
cult in that city.
THE secret of cure lies entirely in
sweet, melodious and seductive
strains of music" she says. Musical
harmony is a fundamental law of the
inner self. To be well our bodies
must not only be in tune with the self
within, but in accord with external
conditions. l believe that music, sci
entifically employed in prisons and
asylums for the demented, will oventu-
ally become the means Of reforming
criminals, and will result in a steady
decrease in the thousands who now
crowd the insane asylums. It is not
necessary that a person should pos
sess an artistic sense or that suf-
ferer should even have musical ear
to obtain the benefcent effects Of har-
mOny"

TOINvITET ALL
UNITED STATES TO ISSUE CALL
FOR UNIVERSAL CONSER-
WALTON CONFERENCE.
AT THE HAGUE IN SEPTEMBER
The International Gathering Will Be
Called at the Suggestion of Dele
gates to North Ameri-
can Conference.

Washington, Feb. $3.50 thorough
ny impressed is President Roosevelt
with the necessity of conservation OF
the natural resources of the world
that he has directed Secretary OF
State Bacon, at the suggestion OF the
North American Conservation confer
4ence in session here to extend for
NAL invitation to foreign powers to
participate in ansinternational confer
eence to deal with this important prob
lem to be held at The Hague next
September.
The announcement Of the proposed
international gathering was made by
President Roosevelt following lunch
qeon which he Friday gave in honor
of the commissioners from this coun-
try, Canada and Mexico, who are in
attendance upon the North American
conservation congress. In addition
Ambassador Bryce of Great Britain,
Senator Knox and others were pres
,ent Senator Knox, who is to be sec.
rotary of state in Mr.. Taft's cabinet,
is in hearty sympathy with the idea
of a worlds conference.
All of the As nations represented at
The Hague peace conference will be
invited to participate
In an official statement given out at
the White House Friday night it was
announced that the conference dele.
gates representing the United States.
Mexico and Canada upon having ex-
changed views and considered the in
formation supplied from their respect
i've countries, is convinced of the i'm
portance of the movement for the
conservation of natural resources on
the continent Of North America and
believes that it is of such nature
and of such general Importance, that
it should become worldwide in its
scope, and therefore suggested to the
president that all nations should be
invited to join in conference on the
subject of world resources and their
inventory, conservation and wise utili.
.zation. Anticipating the interest which
would naturally be aroused in other
countries by the present conference,
the president himself saw the prob
ability that it would be a precursor
.of world conference. By an aide
memoire of the sixth of January last
the principal governments were infor
mally sounded to ascertain whether
they would look with favor upon an
Invitation to send delegates to such a
conference. The responses have sc
far been uniformly favorable.
1t is believed that all nations in
vited will accept the invitation with
the same degree of cordially with
which Canada and Mexico accepted
the invitation to participate in the
North American conference. 1t was
learned Friday that at least two for
seign powers felt keenly disappointed
because they = were not invited to
meet with the North American con
ference and they have suggested thu
7advisability Of an international con
ference through correspondence and
through their diplomatic representa-
.tives.
Inasmuch as the initial movement
has been taken by President Roose
velt,. the engineering of the matter
will be left to this government.
