POCKETS VERSUS HAND BAGS
Real Reason Of the Subsection Of We
man to Man.


Civilized man finds it difficult to
make his way through life without a
dozen pockets. The ordinary walking
suit has fifteen. Civilized woman
makes her way through life without
pockets, depending on a single bag
carried in the hand. The professional
humorists have never tired of COM
menti1g on woman's pocketless condi-
ton. but 1t is really no laughing mat
ter.
Here is a sex difference which is
something more than fashion, which
goes to the very heart of the subjec-
ton Of woman to man. If we accept
Spencer's definition of the evolution
airy process as consisting in progress
from an indefinite homegeneity to q
definite heterogeneity the superior po-
sition of man is at once esta blished
His fifteen diversified pockets. each al
located to a separate uSe-watch. cigar
case, pocketknife, purse, newspaper
and package of garden seeds-need
only be contrasted with the single
reticule in which the female of the spe
cies stores away an unco-ordinated
mass of handkerchiefs. toilet articles,
car fare. press clippings, telephone ad-
dresses, dress goods samples, confec-
tiOnery. memoranda and tradesmen's
bills that have long been settled by
check.
Strong in his pockets, man walks
the earth free in the play of his upper
limbs. whereas woman sacrifices the
use OF her right arm before venturing
out in a world OF street cars. motor
cars, moving staircases, elevators and
ticket booths.-New York Post

tanned THE MONARCH.
The Part Silver lnkstand Played In
National Crisis.

The pages of history record many in
stances in which trivial incidents have
shaped the destinies of nations. Ac
cording to a story in the New York
Tribune, small silver inkstand and
the quick wit of a prime minister once
played an important part in the history
of the Netherlands.
William Ill. king of the Netherlands,
was man of violent and ungovernable
temper. Although in general a clever
statesman, he was inclined, for some
reason or other, to involve Holland in
the trouble that was brewing between
France and Germany in 1870. He was
deaf to the appeals of his ministers,
who foresaw the ruin to the country
that war would bring.
ThOrbecke, the prime minister, re-
solved to make one last attempt to
change his soverign's resolution. On
entering the royal presence Thorbecke
was greeted with a rough Good morn
ing! What's the news?'
Nothing particular, your majesty.
Only the people OF The Hague are talk
ing a great deal of nonsense about your
majesty"
About me-" exclaimed the monarch,
in wrath. What do they say about
me?"
We'll. SIR" answered the old states
man, The Haguers declare that your
majesty has become stark, staring
mad!" Before he could utter another
word King William, his face purple
with fury. jumped up and seized a
heavy silver inkstand. with the inten-
ton of hurting it at the head of the
premier. Fortunately a projecting an
gle of the inkstand caught in the table
cloth and dragged it off the table with
everything upon it. In the confusion
the discharge of the missile was delay
ed for moment.
Sire" exclaimed Thorbecke quietly,
'if your majesty hurls that beautiful
inkstand at my head The IIaguers will
have much reason for their assertion"
For minute the angry king gazed in
silence at his minister. Then he grad
ually lowered his arm and replaced the
inkstand on the table. He walked to
one of the windows and stood looking
out for few minutes. Returning to
the table, he resumed his seat and
said, as if nothing had happened;
And now tell me what you have got
to say
An hour later. when the statesman
left. he carried with him the monarchs
promise to issue a proclamation that
would declare the neutrality Of Hol-
land.
