END OF PET DETEsrATIoN.
New Yorker Finally Rid of the Dis
 pissed High Hat.

There is a certain man in New York whose pet detestation Is a high hat. In his journey through life he has ac- qulred many dislikes, some prejudices. and a few hatreds-but his feeling toward a high hat goes far beyond the limits implied by the mild word hatred"
 However, family influences were brought to bear on him when he had reached the proper milestone in his life, and these influences were so strong and insistent that eventually the man in question purchased a high hat; what is more, he actually donned it.
 But his hatred abated not a jot. In fact, it grew. He used to open his Eatbox and eye the hat viciously, mur- derously- But thoughts of what the family would say if he should adopt violent measures always deterred him, and every time he shut the box again, leaving the thing unharmed, and vented his rage in profanity.
 Once he and his family went to live at a hotel in the country. And one night, with appalling audiences, that hotel caught fire.
 Fortunately, everybody in it was able to get out in safety. The young man of the hat, after counting heads, and seeing that his people were out of danger, decided to dash into the burn ing building once more-there was still bit of time-in order to see whether he might rescue a few more things from his room. In the excite ment attendant on the discovery of the fire the hotel guests had been obliged to look to their personal safe ty, without thinking overmuch of that of their belongings
 Well, the young man. plunging gal 1antly through flame and smoke, reached his room. There, the first thing which caught his eye was the high hat.
 With 2 look of diabolicaI glee he re- garded 1t for few seconds. Then with an exclamation of deight-he kicked it into the inmost part of the room, into cracking flame and eddy ing smoke, far from all possible means of escape.
 Then diabolical glee still iIIumining his features, he emerged happy man.

WHEN PA GIVES INFORMATION.
Just the Chance for Display of His
 Sense of Hunor.
Pa, what is a hypochondriac?"

Pa, what is a hypochondriac?"
 "A hypochondriac, Wilfred-"
 But just a moment. Pa" in this an' ecdote is not a good and kind father. yearning to impart useful information to his son, but one of those smart an- swer-givers whose main object in life is to get into the back pages of the magazines. Such fathers look upon their little sons, groping for knowl- edge, as providers of openings for senseless domestic epigrams. Hence but we'll go back.
 Pa" takes off his glasses and looks benignly at his son.
 What did you say, my boy?"
 "Pa, what is a nypochondriac?
 That gives Pa" his chance.
 "A hypochondriac, Wilfred"-names like Wilfred add humor to this sort of thing John, for instance. would fall fiat and James would be indefinite ly worse; but to resume-"a hypochon- driac, Wilfred, is man who has such a dread of catching cold that, when ever he takes a bath, he stops up all the holes in the sponge for fear of draughts."
 And WiIfred not quite seven years oldi Isn't it a shame?

New Light on KleptomanIs.

The detective. closely regarding the women at the lace counter, talked about shopping.
 Its undeniable," he said, that it's a kind of craze. The majority of wom- en I catch are women of means; there is no earthly reason why they should steal. And they are of nervous, hys- terical type, the type you can hyno- tize.
 That makes me ready to believe what some of the doctors now claim namely. that kleptomaniacs are ths unsuccessfully hypnotized subjects of salesmen. The salesmen desire them to buy and often hynotize them into buying-don't you know what trash shoppers bring home but often, too, they only partially hypnotize them, and then the women steal.
 This new idea strikes me as plausi- ble because kleptomaniacs are nearly always of the impressionable type that yields the rsadiest to the hynotists will"

oBsERVANT PEOPLE ARE LAPS
Trouble Is They Are Liable to Carry
 1t to Extremes.

The Japanese are a most initiative and observant people and copy every thing they see with minute fidelity. A Newport man recently engaged a Japanese valet. who was very atten- tive and satisfactory.
 His duties rarely took him into the kitchen, but when he had a chance of watching the cook he did so with extraordinary interest.
 The cook caught severe chill and left somewhat suddenly. The lady Of the house was in despair, as she could not replace her.
 At last the valet announced diff dently that he thought he could cook 8 little and the mistress gladly agreed to give him a trial.
 The first thing he started on was the potatoes. He took of his shoes and socks and put his feet in bath of hot mustard and water.
 The lady wanted to know what on earth he was doing. He replied that he saw the cook do that when she was peeling the potatoes, and nothing would persuade him that this was not a necessary part of the process.

The Horse's Ewes and Ears,

Never buy a horse that shies with out first having a veterinarian examine his eyes for cataract, as the tendency to shy is more often than not the re- suit of defective vision. It may be only a small, biuish white speck to be- gin with, but even at that stage it i'm pairs the sight, and it is incurable, says a writer in Country Life in Amer fca Any one versed in equine char acter reading can learn much from the way a horse carries his ears. If they are always "pricked up" or carried for ward, he may be partly blind or deaf. or both If the ears are always laid back he Is nervous or vicious. and in either case will give you trouble.

Moroccan Proverbs,

In an article on the people of Mo- rocco writer in Figaro says: They have some queer adages and some that closely resemble ours. Thus, they say: The camel cannot see it's hump. but plainly sees one on it's neighbor;' He who depends on his neighbor will go to bed hungry A wise enemy is better than a stupid friend:' Cross the rushing stream. but beware of the quiet, noiseless
 one;' Tn this world there are three things not to be trusted-luck, women
 and horses;' Mounting a horse, 1oos- ing the hunting dogs and hearing ear rings rattle drives dull care away "

Love and the Law,

Now love makes the mind clean and clear. so that it stops liking unclean things like bad food and ugly squeezed bodies and cigars. And love makes the mind kindly. so that it does not yearn for more than it's share of other peoples money. So in the gaining or the maintaining of health. too, love is the fulfilling of the law
 And how about beauty? Why, beauty is merely health-plus love. There fore, if you have love you have all things, for all things are ruled by law; love is the fulfilling of the law Nautilus.

The Thunderina Leaion.

Tn the year A. D. 174 a Roman le- zion. made up wholly or in part of Christians, fought under Marcus An tonius against the Marcomanni.

The Christians attributed their deliverance to the prayers they had just presented, and considered it mi raculous. and the term "Thundering Legion" was applied to the soldiers New York American.
