Country Town Sayings
 By Ed" Howe

There are few women who do not buy hats too young for them.
 Should a woman shake hands heartily. or should she put a limp hand in yours. and make you feel that you should drop it as scon as possible? When I shake hands with some women, somehow I feel l have been guilty Of an indiscretion, how ever discreetly I have acted.
 The Devils 5rst idea was to be m angel
 No one knows enough to warrant coDceit
 politician will do anything to get an office. except pay for it
 This Is a funny world and it is a little funnier thar usual this year
 So nianS things go wrong that | aln tired of being indignant.
 Whisky seems to pickle and pre- serve one man in a hundred; but it ro's the other niaety-nine.
 Even the novels no longer put a lover on his knees.
 There are certain people who al. ways say the best singer in tho world can't sing.

* Good 
Bridal Etiquette.

Smart brides who have stepped o1 the carpet in recent weeks have set the pace for a number of bridesmaids, from four to eight being chosen, the number of ushers often corresponding. With these, two little children may act as pages or flower girls, the little maids carrying baskets of flowers. which they strew before the bride on her way up the aisle
 The bride 10 be selects her brides maids from her intimate friends and relatives. but if the bridegroom has sisters it is etiquette to include one or more of these. The maid of honor is the sister of the bride or her denrest friend. and of course the bridegrOom's best man Is either his brother or his chum.
 The ushers are chosen from the close friends of the bridal pair, and the ip- vitations to these are given by note or verbally without the least formality It Is thought rather bad taste, some thing of an affront Indeed. for 8 se- lected bridesmaid or usher to refuse the honor unless there is some very good excuse for SO doing.
 About week before the marriage tine bride elect gives a pretty luncheon or dinner 10 her bridesmaids, and it Is not uncommon for the affair 10 be a dinner party at which the future groom. the best man and the ushers are present
 Sentiment calls for little affair sa- cred ta giylhood. so. as the bride 10 be is generally much occupied in the evening. she gives what is called her
 The brt maiden luncheon. .de-roorn's last bachc.0r dinner or supper uccurz about the same time, and if it is going to be a grand affair in a hotel the bride and bridesmaids may go in the afternoon, accompanied by the future groom. To see the decorations But this little visit is made rather secretly. as the whole object of the groom's last function to his friends Is to honor them alone

ARE YOU VIOLATING
 UNITED STATES LAW?
f You Are Wearing Coins on Watch Fobs You Are;
 ViOlatorS Plentiful

Money is good for what it will buy, IS an old saying and that is just what
 uncle sam intended should be done with 1t when he made it Not many people know that it is a violation of federal law to wear gold or silver coin in a watch fob or as a pendant of any kind. Such. however. is the fact.
 It is dollar to a doughnut that at leasl fifty yiOlators of the law are readins this in Bisbee this morning and it IS cinch these same fifty will De violating the same law this time tomorrow morning. for the logic oI the law is not at first apparent
 The citizen is apt to think that all money in his possession is his own and he may do with it just what he pleases. The law prohibits the de facement of any United States coin In any way whatever. It does not specifically say to Bjones. ''Double-dog dare you to make a watch fob Of a sold coin" But when a man wears such a watch fob it is prima fucie eyi- dence of guilt for it is not possible to make pendant Of a coin without defacing it to some extent It would be defaced if a band were put around the edge of a coin or if a hole were put through the coin.
 File Gold of Coins.
 The government has had cases where people filed the gold of gold coins in which there is said to be a fine profit if carefully done
 No longer than a year ago. there was wholesale violation of a fede- ral stature prohibiting the defacement of coins. It was when the Lincoln 1 penny came out. Only those with i the initials of the designer of the | new penny. H. St Gaudens. were sought by the coin collectors but the . popularity of the penny was taken advantage of by the novelty manufac- | -urers. One of the many things made . of Lincoln" pennies were cuff-bUt- ! tons. It was absolutely impossible . 10 get the pennies from their holdings without melting away the holdings, { and thereby defacing the penny.
 This, if a violation at all. was I wholesale violation of the law but it | passed the muster Of the treasury de l oartment, as no prosecutions were in- ititnted
 Speaking of money. said a man E ho gave the information in this story, ''it is a wonder to me that with all the natural or geographical advantages Of their part of the coun- y to counterfeiters, no more cases ,f that charactAr come to light" In he south. counterfeiting cases and 1 he Illicit distilling of liquor form the arger part of the United States com docket Counterfeiting ,ases are also common 70 the east, put We very rarely hear of any in his part Of the country Perhaps it s because We have a plenty Of real money.

Where a Man Rises.

When a woman comes into q room in which there are only a few people. say about half a dozen. all the men should rise at once and remain stand ing until she is seated In a crowded room, at tea or party. this. of course. is not necessary.
 If man is already seated at tho table he should rise when women come to the table Men who are very care ful of their manners do this even at hotels and restaurants if strangers arS put at their table. but 1t is unusual. Heidelberg students in Europe keep up this courteous practice. and it iE said that Harvard students in this country also do so.
 If a woman in passing down the aisle of theater or train pauses ts speak to friends any men in the par ty should rise while she is speaking. and if on a train one of them should offer his seat
 A man should always remain stand ing until the women at table are seated, pulling the chair back for the taAfHA VI AAit bAlt AAtAAtHis IT iltEt gre more men present
 If man by chance sits next to a woman acquaintance on a car or sub way and she leaves the train before he does he should rise and lift his hat when saying goOdby
 II is not necessary for man to rise if woman goes in and out of room many times. This would be stretch ing an act of courtesy tOsthe point of the ridiculous. although there are few excessively polite men who insist on keeping their manners polished to this degree.
 A man should never remain seated while he talks to q woman who is standing. This applies to offices as well as drawing rooms. A courteous employer can always get good work from his employees.

heve all that is claimed for the new
 Edison storage battery. The street
 ears will not need trolleys and the
 unsightly poles and dangerous wires
 will come down. Even the rails may be eventually torn up. for there will
 be no necessity to guide omnibuses
 along the strict lines now made ne .cessary by the conveyance of power
 through wires The horse may be- come as rare on the city highway as cattle. Other collateral changes will
 suggest themselves.
 The time is coming. says Edison.
 when the trolley car will be of the
 past. The immense mileage of cop per wire will no longer be a condi- ton of interurban travel The car will be impelled by batteries stored away beneath the seats This is not mere dealing in probabilities. The batteries are at this moment propell- ing cars on a line in New Jersey and the Twenty-ninth street cross town cars in New York City.
 But this is only a small part of the future usefulness of the inven- ton. Mir. Edison chooses as his ex- emplar of its utility the average delivery wagon. A ten min ute charge will take the cart fifty miles and Mir Edison figures out the rost Of a days work of the cart at 9 cents Verify it seems incredible and. if NIT. Edison were not a man whose performances were not more l wonderful than the things he prom ses to do. people might be justified 1 n a little incredulity Fifty miles or 25 cents is half a cent a mile The battery by which this extraor- iinary result is obtained is a bat cry small enough and light enough 0 be carried fin an ordinary suit ase. Reflect for a moment on the ize and weight Of the storage bat cry in present use.
 Already London is finding that utobuses are more economical or peration than Jramway cars and ave the immense advantage of the i that they can go on any fell-paved street The abolition Of racks and wires in the streets is
 reform much to be desired, while he prospect of competition in traf- ic over routes that are now neces- arily monopolies under present con | itions. holds out a no less alluring ope for cheaper travel.

PRESS COMMENT
SONORA FIELD PROMISING.

Two reasons are keeping back those interested iu Mexican mining at this time. One is the fear that there may still be trouble. at least from wandering bandit bands, and the other is the heat. Under these it is only natural that there should be comparatively little activity before fall. Then condi- tions should be absolutely quiet once more or at least approaching real peace and the dreaded heat and rainy season over. Meantime there has gone south an advance guard who anticipate reaping a rich harvest. They will examine and determine what properties have been forfeited for lack of payment of taxes and can be re-denOunced and in other instances will obtain options or ageu- cies to sell properties where Ameri- can owners have had enough of the Mexican game. expecting to reap a rich harvest when purchasers appear next winter. These men are usually those who have been down in Mex ico before for a considerable length of time and are thoroughly familiar seldom with more than one. Thus the Mexican field will be pretty well divided up among these advance guards of peace and restored pros perity. Several are now known to be in the mine district towns in Sonora already and others win fol- low them ere long

Unexneeted Gu.ats.

One reason why hospitality is exer. cised with little freedom in these days Is that We are so fettered by eonven- ti0naiity and so resolute ln n determi
 nation to keep everything at concert pitch that we are beside ourselves If people pay us surprise visits. Perhaps 1t Is as well to add that visitor would better send message in advance by post or telegraph. since surprises are sometimes most inconvenient If, how ever, a guest. either relative or a friend. comes when it suits her to do so. the resources of any ordinarily ca- pable housewife should be equal to tnis emergency.

Calling Cards.


 Even conservative women are carry ing cards measuring less than two by three inches, so that in the case of a deep mourning card there is only suf- fcient blank space for the name. The smallest wOman's card measures 2 by 2A inches. the largest 3z by 2a4 inches. with four sizes coming be- tween.
 The pasteboard is of only medium thickness. The stiff card is out of date.
 This year preference is given to the shaded old English lettering and the black and shaded French script. the latter being the very latest style.
 The size of the lettering is regulated by the length of the name to be en- graved. and the size of the card is reg ulated by the length of the name.

FOOLISH VIEW OF NEW WOMAN.

A new idea of the new woman ss
 given by Miss Lang. who is max
 ing a series of addresses to convince
 audiences that young women. and
 also old women, of eoSrse. would do
 well to drink whisky
 When drinking. advises Miss Lang,
 be modest and nannerly. Don't, as
 the unregenerate say. start any,
 thing But by all means drink
 The working girl should drink, or
 may drink, or shouldn't be blamed for drinking with her escort The married woman. if not too newly married or too young, may drink in such company az she cares to select. But very young married women would better not drink save in the company of an older wOman-a more experienced woman presumably. In other words. one who knows how 70 /carry a load and is equipped to give a junior drinker reliable advice as to how far to stimulate without en- dangering dignity, physical or men tai equilibrium, the rigidity of the muscles in the vicinity of the t--- - 4-- ..y,..,.-.far eo- ts-,.,..s,5. . and quiet in the community in which she tanks. An older consum- ! CT of the eap that in moderation cheers. and indulged in imnoderate- ly doth often inebriate, will know how 10 tell the earnest beginner how gradually to arcustOm her in ternsl workings to a gentle lubrica- ton with fusel oil so that she will not attract undesirable attention by giving way to sows and boisterous laughter when there is no cause foI hilarity aside from a general feeling of we'll being induced by the effect of an alcoholic beyersge upon an un- accustomed stomach A little com petent advice from one whO knows the ropes will save the fair tyro from bursting into song in a crowded cafe, or weeping copiously after the third drink because she has chanced to remember the untimely death of a grandparent who passed away dur ing, or previous to. her infancy, says an exchange.
 Experience is the best teacher according to an axiom to which most of us agree. But experience is no respecter of persons. Experience i teaches one who has sat down upon the sidewalk midway between the cafe. and the cab that navigation is impossible at a certain stage If intoxication, but it does not call the cab prior to arrival at that stage ol intoxication until one has had a good deal of it It Is, therefore, unwise for "unchaperoned young married women" ss Hiss Lang calls them, to drink unattended by a natural guar dian. such as a husband or a parent, or some trustworthy person who knows the ways of the world and the vain and peculiar tricks of the alcohol microbe.
 It had not occurred to most of ps that the alternative that women face are morphine and whisky. But this, Miss Lang intimates. is the ease. Tae new woman is stepping up and taking her place abreast Of man. Drink or dope she will have And a little doping is a dangerous thing. Better cocktails. highbaIls and other mixed drinks. than opium pills or Indian hemp.
