THE HABIT OF CLOTHES

little overcoat his mother was carrying, for he refused to put them on. and while big, strong men were hurrying. stamping or skipping themselves to keep warm the little boy was whimpering to get back home so as to take off his hot" burden some clothing. His bright mother, who was formerly trained nurse, says that If he is not out in the street playing all day or if she dresses him in clothing that children commonly wear the glands in his neck begin to swell, his nose stops up and he loses his appetite. Even one rainy day indoors makes trouble.
 This seems all new and strange doings, but just think minute. All of us who knew anything of the south before the war have seen in cold, freezing weather shoeless, hatless little negroes from or to 10 or Is years, run out of the cabin to the frozen ground, and all they had on was one fimsy garment, the old-time lin- sey dress. These happy youngsters would run first to the log fire in the cabin and then out into the cold, warming and chill ing all day long. So clothed and sensibly fed, few died.
 But the negro in Africa was unused to clothing. Garner tells Tip that white mans clothing means death to African negroes, because they jump into creeks and rivers every hour in the day, so keep ing themselves always wet But there must be other reasons to account for the fact that negroes. away from swimming water and their warm climate in Africa, do best wearing little or no clothing in cold winters of parts of the south, where near-xero weather Is not uncommon.
 Possibly one of the reasons why people wear clothes concealing the entire body from chin to toes is because civilized peo- pie come in so many different shapes and would look nothing at all alke without clothing; consequently those with less shapely figures would be badly handi- capped in life. But with everybody wear ing pretty much the same, and men and women padding all seem to have fairly good figures Indians. Filipinos and other average tribes wear no clothing and every one Is pretty much the same in appear ance as another, for they all are well formed, the weddings having died young, the law of natural selection. They all look even more alike than the city men and women. with their figures concealed in various fashions.

NO sIEsTA IN MANILA NOW.

Monroe Woolley, in the Bookkeeper.
 The Spaniard damned us for one new custom in particular when we went into business in Manila. We didn't take well to the siesta hour. It was no part of our business curriculum. Also 1t was one of the few local things that the American absolutely refused to take into oonsidera~ ton by dovetailing 1t into his commercial institution and bylaws. Promptly at the noon hour in the early days in Philippine cities merchants scurried home behind their liveried coachmen, while their em- ployes ducked along out of the sun or

MOVING PICTURES OF ROYALTY.
 From Popular Mechanics.

In the latest moving pictures taken by the royal cinematographers at the com mand of Emperor William, the Crown Prince of the German ruling house is shown leading fierce charge across the parade ground. After the charge he was taken while instructing his officers in the art of handling cannon, and places a shell in the breech with his own hands.

rain to their boarding places. The store or office, as the case might be, was locked up tight. It so remained while the force dined and took it's afternoon nap. About 8 o'clock the commercial world awakened again, rubbed its blood-shot eyes, rinsed it's mouth of a dark brown taste, and grouchily returned to the tasks at the desk or behind the counter. Nowadays few stores close at noon. All are anxious for the extra pesos the American hoped to get by keeping open doors at mid day.

The HIoher Cost of LIvinq.

"One of the elements entering into the prevailing high cost of food and cloth- ing is the shameful fact that so many woollen goods that are not all wool or nearly so, and this at prices higher than real woollen goods in Germany or Eng land," said a man of family.
 "The tariff on 'shoddy' or mixed clothes is just about as high as on real wools; this is to protect the manufacturers of what is known as woollen goods that are from 25 to s0aper cent cotton. Am other thing: These mixes do not wear as well or keep their smoothness and shape and are easily affected by mois- ture.
 'The manufacturing of alcoholic bev- erages from grain has much to do with the price of meat. Thousands of hogs and cattle are fattened off of the swill from distilleries. If there should be any marked decrease in the manufacture of whisky there would be marked effect on the price of grain but the meat mar ket would be seriously affected until there should be a readjustment by the grain being fed to stock.
 q notice that all the express com panies paid large dividends. in some cases over 100 per cent, on their inflated capitalization. This is a part of the cost of living in many ways.
 Again the heavy tariff on tin affects the price of enormous quantities of can goods of the poor mans mainstay."

Chat With Comedians.

Shortly after some of the principals at the FIillman hotel this morning dropped in to see John C. Fisher, the general manager, with view of ascer- taining a few points about the big musical show which opens an engagement of feur performances at the Jefferson theatre to- night" said a man interested in the- atricals.
 'fwhen ushered into MT. Fishers room I found the combined humor trust of Little Neme, with the exception of Harry Kelly, who had gone out with his wife to take a look at Greater Birmins- ham. Seated near a window was Joe Cawthern, the star sf K1aw SS Brlanser's massive production. The big German comedian looked like Ne had just come out of band-box and he was never in better humer Near him was Harry Clay Blaney, another star, who Is known from one ocean to another as meledraInatic comic opera hero who ean shoot more villains than anyone. In the largest chair in the room was Master Gabriel, the ons and original Buster Brown and who takes the title rele in Little Nemo.'

 T don't see the point said Master Gabriel, and when Cawthorn refused to laugh he added, You look mighty se- rious for a German comedian
 ''But there is a serious side even to star comedians and for quite while Cawthorne, Blsney and Master Gabriel talked of prohibition In Alabama, the amendment, the show business. evangelis- tic work, what tho missionaries are doing and various other topics. Finally MT. Fisher got word in and said that every piece of scenery would be in the Jefferson by 10 o'clock this morning: that there would be light rehearsal this afternoon at 8 o'clock and that the curtain would go up promptly at SIS tonight.
 And you can make @ wager that Caw- thorn, Gabriel. Blaney and all the rest will be at their best tonight They know that the first night counts"
