lmpracticabillty,

This thing of doing In Rome ns the
Romans do is not always tho best
plan, says the Popular Magazine. II
you don't believe 1t Miss Jane Adams,
the famous sociological worker OF Chi
cago, will tell you a story to prove It.
Miss Adams knew wealthy wom-
an who delighted In doing works OF
charity, such as sending missionaries
to foreign fields, and on one occasion
she put up the money TO send mis-
sionary to the Caroline islands. Soon
after his arrival on the scene of his
activities the religious man sent his
benefactress n photograph of himself
and his wife.
Whereupon the rich woman wrote
the man of God a letter, suggesting
that his wife, in order 20 win the con.
fidence of the natives should throw
away her fine clothes and wear the
costume of the islands Two months
later she received this answer:
Enclosed is the complete costume
worn by native women. My wife
awaits further word from you before
adopting IT,"
The native dress consisted OF a
piece OF woven straw, two inches wide
and eight inches long.

NEVER ENTIRELY WIPED OUT
The Bachelor Survives In Great Num-
bers, Despite Attacks Of Most
Sklllfu Foes.

Bachelors. like the poor, we have
always with US. They never become
extinct. The rising army each year is
attacked by an opposing army OF fe-
males, and each individual Is, OF
course, defeated and led away to the
slaughter; yet. in spite of this fact,
tho bachelor still persists.
Many things conspire TO keep him
going; for one, there are the cities.
Bachelors who live in cities learn TO
be very comfortable. They can ar
range their home decorations to suit
themselves, and can at any time bring
home friend to dinner without any
criticism from the management.
Bachelors who live In cities can also
eat and drink what they please with
out interference. and so far as all the
material comforts are concerned. they
can regulate their lives to suit them
selves.
On the other hand, the thing that
depletes the ranks OF the bachelors
more than anything else is lonesome
ness. Many bachelors are willing to
put up with almost any kind OF hard
life so long as they can get someone
to share II with, Ease and luxury
are, after all, among the minor con-
Germs; after bachelor has expert
enced them for a sufficient length OF
time he is willing to get married, If
only to have someone to quarrel with.
Man is always looking for trouble

.CLERGYMEN MUST PAY
THEIR RAILROAD FARE

So far as passes arc concerned clergy
men, except in the ra-est cases. have
been placed on the same footing as other
persons
According to tho Hepburn law preach
ers and those who are devoting the whole
OF their time to charity are exempt from
It's provisions In the past most OF the
western roads have been issuing passes
TO such persons. This year II Is different
and rarely is an exception TO be made.
Railroad passenger men take the post
ton that they can safely issue passes TO
,clergymen and actual charity workers
and not violate the terms OF the Hepburn
law, but In most states the local laws
prevent such use OF passes and In order
to be on the safe side and not show any
discrimination the clergy and charity
passes have been shut off.
