EnIivened the Scene.

One night the father of Kitty Ste
phens, who afterward became Countess
OF Essex. went on the stage between
the acts and was standing close to the
drop scene, with his back to 1t. when
the stage manager gave the signal for
the raising Of the curtain Slowly the
cloth went up, and as 1t rose the coat
tails of Mr.. Stephens became involved
in the roller. and. feeling himself
caught, he began to struggle for free
dom. His efforts were unavailing,
however, and when the roller reached
the top there was he In full view Of
the audience, suspended by his coat
tails, his head and feet downward, his
figure resembling a half open knife.
Then the stage hands became alive to
the situation and the drop scene was
lowered again amid the boisterous
merrtment of the audience, the sounds
of hilarity increasing as the victim, al
most black in the face, landed on his
hands and knees on the stage and crept
into the wings.-London Mail.

EDITORIALS
THE PURE SHOE BILL

Efforts are proceeding in Con-
gress to pass law requiring the
presence of adulterants in shoes to
be marked Such a Louisiana law
was recently declared unconstitu-
tional. Nevertheless, the same pub
lie sentiment that enacted the pure
food laws is bound to affect all
manufacturers.
Years ago men women and chill
dren wore thick cow-hide boots
which when dried were about as
hard as boards. Seams were large
ly done by hand, and the whole
shoe was very durable. The shoe
bill was not large. Today even
men who dig bitches want light
er looking shoe. and its machine
stitching and thinner leather can
not stand such rough work.
Style costs in the shoe trade. 1t
takes more pains and care to pull
a thin fabric over a shspely last
than to jerk a stiff hide over a
formless block AS leather has
advanced in price as more style
has been called for the art of work
ing off leather substitutes has ad-
gvanced.
Ground leather scrap can be
made into material that makes
a stiff counter, until man gets his
feet wet. Similar material when
neatly painted and polished looks
like a solid heel or sole.
Years ago a. great many shoes
were sold as "a calf" perhaps
are sold still. They are simply
".splits," shavings of greater or
less thickness made by splitting a
thick cow-hide. The strength of
leather depends upon a thorough
interlacing of its fibers. Such in
terlacing is not the same on the
inside of the skin as on the out
side. The name "A calf" was an
attempt to persuade the consumer
that the leather made out of loose
fibered shaviDgs from the skin of
an old animal was the entire hide
Of young creature.
AS all shoe manufacturers of
certain grade used such ira des
methods, the practice in a sense
was fair. But it led the public to
accept material that was not good
economy.

METAPHYSICS.

That the spirit of man will
ever wholly give up metaphysical
Investigations is just as little to
be expected as that in order not
always to be breathing bad air
we should stop breathing alto
gether. Metaphysics will always
exist in the world and, what's
more, exist with every one, but
more especially with reflective
men, who, in default Of public
standard, will each fashion &c I'm
his own way. Now, what has
hitherto been termed metaphys.
les Gun satisfy no acute mind.
but to renounce It entirely is
impossible; hence a critic of
pure reason itself must be ut
last attempted and when obtain
ed must be investigated and sub.
jected to the universal test. be-
cause otherwise there are no
means Of relieving this pressing
requirement, which means some
thing more than mere thirst for
