dinary gorgio palmist, but which the
most part are not to be found in any
written book.
1t is almost entirely upon face read
ing and a cultivated keen, ready per-
ception of general characteristics that
the gypsy depends. Nothing escapes
her quick eye. The bearing of a
stranger, the dress, speech and man
ner, the expression and type of fea-
ture and a thousand details which
would be overlooked as unimportant
trifies by gorgio, count with the
Romany. She refuses to "dukker"
before more than one person at a
time, possibly on the plea that she be-
longs to a secret order" which for
bids 1t, or that fortune told IN such
manner would not come true. These
statements, though deliciously appe-
tizing, are lacking in truth, for the
fact is only that she needs the un-
divided attention of the one who con-
suits her, in order to get the best re-
suits of concentration of mind In
justice to the gypsy, It should be
taken into consideration that the at
mosphere of scepticism which is apt
to surround gay party of curiosity
seekers, is not conducive to success In
the exercise of any profession.
The Romany fortune teller is an
adept in the art of flattery, for there
are few exceptions to the rule that
nothing is so interesting as ones self.

conscious admissions by confessions

WHAT THE NET BROUGHT UF.

A strange catch was made the other
week by the Scotch trawler Locust,
while at work on the fishing grounds
about 16 miles east of the May
Island. In the net was the body Of a
young man who had been compare
lively only short time drowned, as
the body was quite fresh in appear
ance when taken on board the traw-
Ter. 1t was evidently that of a young
5eafaring man, as it was fully clothed
in oilskins aud sou'wester, who had
most likely fallen, or been washed
overheard from some vessel while off
the Forth. The crew of the Locust
was not a little upset at the unusual
and somewhat eerie incident, and i'm
mediately made for Granton, where
the body was landed.

AMPUTATED HIS OWN LEG

Some people are gifted with extraor-
dinary nerve and fortitude under
bodily suffering The other week a
carman was knocked down by an en-
gine as he was crossing the line near
Paris, and the wheels of the engine
passed over his leg, nearly covering 1t
from the body. When a number of
men came to his aid, they were as
tonished to find the victim busily EN-.
ployed with his knife, completing the
amputation. The man also persisted
in binding up the limb himself before
he was taken to hospital

IucldIv Exnressad.

An old Pennsylvania German living
in the mountains had a hard three
hours dusty walk to accomplish one
morning and he rose very early to
make his start. He had gone but a
little way when he was overtaken by
an automobile, which was probably
the first that had passed along that
way. The driver picked up the old
man and they were at his destination
in about 20 minutes.

MUST WIFE GO TO SCHOOL?

The Zurich municipal autharities
will shortly be called upon to decide
a curious case. An Italian schoolgirl,
aged 13 years, whose parents reside
at Zurich, returned from a short
visit to Italy, and. stating she was
married, refused to return to school.
In this canton children are obliged to
attend school until the age of Is.
On making inquiries the Zurich author
tiles found that the little Italian girl
had been legally married in her own
country to a respectable young work
ing man Of her own class, who in.
tends to come to Switzerland when he
has saved some money and make bis
girl wife a home Can a married
woman" be compelled to attend

GANDER IN PLACE OF DOG.

Ganders may take the place of dogs
as pets and protectors In Weld coun-
ty, Colorado, if others can be found as
wise and helpful as the gander owned
by Harry Wells Of Gill. 1t takes it's
place on the wagon seat with its own
er whenever he goes to town and re-
mains there until home again.
At home it keeps guard over every
thing and keeps chickens out of the
garden. 1t follows Wells over the
fields when he works and is so jealous
over him that it will not allow dog
to get near.
