Unless You Wear One Of Three Kind,
You Are = Marked Man.

/
When some years ago one Of The
doorkeepers at a London theater re-
tired from his drafty calling and
was pensioned off by the-4manage-
ment il appeared that this old man
in all the years of his service had
never given sspass out" check to
any one of the thousands Of men
who must have passed his doorway.
But he never made a mistake.
No one entitled to return was ever
refused, and no one could pass in at
the end Of the interval who had not
passed ont at the beginning Of it.
The secret Of the old mans sue
cess was a curious one. He depend
cd on his memory entirely, but he
had trained his memory in very
curious way He did not remember
the men by their faces, their
clothes, their hats, their boots or
BY any popularity of gait or APP
pearapce. Manifestly such feat
would have been impossible, for or
binary ''pitites' are very much
alike in these details.
He took the one detail on which
men do differ and remembered them
by that-he recognized them by
their neckties.
Gaze around you in the railway
carriage as you are reading this ar
ticle and ask yourself if there is any
of your fellow passengers that you
could remember well enough to rec
ognize again in, say, an hours time.
You will finI there are very few
people You could 5c sure Of. There
may be one old man nth large
and conspicuous white beard or a
very young man with pair Of spec
tacles Of unusual size. But nine out
of ten have the same sort of hat,
the same sort of clothes and the
same sort Of figure.
The Londoner, in fact, seems to
be standardized. He is built on a
settled pattern. lie is modelled to
a type. His necktie is his sole bit of
variety.
Into this world of standardized
human beings comes, let us say,
colonial. Mighty London, with her
vast crowds swarming over four
counties, swallows him up. Yet
somehow he preserves his individ-
uality. He is conspicuous wherever
he Goes. lie feels that al London. |

Sir Ray Lancaster writes Of thu

has been suggested, with some show

known epidemic disease, due to a
parasitic organism--such as those
which We now see ravaging the
herds of South Africa found its
way to the American continent. And
it is quite possible that this was
brought from the other hemisphere

Pacific and populated North Ameri-

A Church in = Rock.

IN the quaint old German town OF
Oberstein an ancient church stands
built in the great rock rising from
the river The front OF the building
is of stone, but the church itself is
followed out OF the rock and pene-
trates far into it's heart. Tradition
says that in the fourteenth century
the Count of Oberstein, one Of the
old robber barons, fell deeply in
love with a beautiful young lady, the
daughter of n naighboring knight.
His brother also sought the fair
maidens hand and the two suitors
had a violent quarrel. The upshot
was that the count flung his hapless
brother from the top Of his castle
wall, high up the precLpitous cliff.
Repenting Of his awful deed, the
count vowed that he would build a
church where his brothers body first
touched the ground He did so, ex-
cavating the church in the rock; and
tradition goes on to say a miraculous
spring of clear water sprang from
the crag as token that heaven was
appeased. This curious church is
now the only Protestant place of
worship in the town.-Wide Would

Flash of lnsoiration,

When the representatives OF Ameri-
tan professional baseball made the
tour Of the world, several years ago,
they met various kinds Of receptions,
the interest in the game being in most
instances hardly what they expected.
Europe and Asia are not yet thor
oughly alive to the beauties of our
national game.
At one place in England, however,
where they had been warmly well
coined and their playing witnessed by
large crowds, banquet was arranged
for the visitors, young scion OF no.
b1lity being master Of ceremonies.
At the close of the feast one of the
American players, a man high up in
the baseball world, was called upon to
say something. He was not accus-
toned to speaking in public, but he
rose, red-faced and embarrassed, to
do his best.
Well he said, 'all I've got to say
Is that we've been treated white
that's what! We've been treated
white You all know I'm not a speech
maker, but l want to propose three
cheers for-for-his-"
Here he paused. He could not think
OF the conventional term or title for
the nobleman who was presiding. A
sudden inspiration, however, came to
his aid
Three rousing cheers, Americans"
he said, for his dukes! Hip! HID!
Hurrah!"
The cheers were given with will,
and his dukes" made gracious re-

During the last two lean years
there was a large outflow of lmmi-
grants returning to Europe because OF
the want OF employment. This out
flow has fallen off so per cent in re-
cent months, insists the Philadelphia
Record. On the other hand. there is
a considerable increase Of immigra-
ton. 1t is estimated by the Atlantic
steamship comnaniss that the tide OF
immigration this season will be as
strong as ever If no further measures
Of restraint are imposed on 1t.
