Brown fox, martin, skunk and fitch
are among the most fashionable furs
and favorites as finish on satin
coats. Marabout, next to fur (in the
natural color, looks well on them.
The coat of figured satin looks luxu-
rious and comfortable and when made
right, it's performance is up to its ap-
pearance 1t is expensive, but it ex-
cuses this characteristic by unusual
beauty.
Similar coats of figured crepe cost
less, but cannot be classed as mex
pensive. Mattelasse makes beauti-
full coat much like it's prototype in
satin.
In spite of the vogue for shorter
coats than those worn last winter,
there are plenty of examples of long
coats in satin and in fur. Robert, of
Paris, shows a model in sealskin
trimmed with martin, much longer
than the coat pictured here. Max
shows one in moleskin trimmed with
pure ermine considerably shorter. So
the matter of length need not deter
one from choosing coat longer than
those popularity worn and by this
means achieving long, graceful lines
and the utmost of the suggestion of
comfort and elegance.

Some People Never Get over 1t.

Some People Never Get Over 1t.
THAT funny looking old fellow over
there" he said as he and the girl sat
down on the stairs, makes me think
of a disagreeable thing that happened
to me once when was living in Phila-
delphia I was at gathering some
thing like this and was talking to
stunning girl T had just met. Well,
among the guests was little chap
who looked for all the world like that
homely little runt, and / got to making
funny cracks to her about him. After
she'd let me tie myself up in all kinds
of knots she broke it to me gently
that the old party with the twisted
face was her-say, why are you look
ing at me in that funny way?'
Il was just wondering when you
would stop long enough to let me tell
you that you have been using my
grandfather and myself for invidious
comparisons.

hard worked person often has to carry
100 pounds at a trot for many days
and nights. He must not only be so
smart and strong that he alone is
capable of tackling half a dozen ban
dts, but he must, moreover, be ready
to face a ghost if necessary. In Eor-
mosa the natives are so superst1t1ous
that if they see or hear the smallest
sign of anything uncanny they will
not only run away from it as fast as
they can, but they will throw down
anything that hampers their flight in
the least degree. In order to be more
hardy and enduring the Horse OF
Thousand Miles never eats a full
meal, but when he is hungry he will
'.eat himself seven-tenths full" An
other way of training for fitness is to
learn to run with bags of sand fixed
to his ankles.
Next come the swimming postman
of India and the skiing postman of
the Andes. The former frequents a
district where rivers abound and
bridges are few, SC that to avoid ex-
tenSive detourS he must be ready at
any moment to take to the water. He
is equipped as a swimmer and wears
as uniform only sketchy bathing
costume, turban and life belt.
The Argentine government i'm
ports Norwegians to carry the posts
in winter across the Andes on skis.
This is probably the most perilous
task known to the postal service of
the world. The men travel at heights
from 5000 to $4,000 feet above the
plain They never know what is be-
meath their feet They may be stand
ing on tableland or they may be cross
ing canyon filed with thousands of
feet of snow. If they loiter they may
sink and nothing can save them.

CANDID OPINION.

No man can win success by doing
something that has been done before.
A little taffy now and then is rel
ished by the wisest men.
Some girls seem to think they are
not getting their moneys worth !. II
they fail to get engaged seven or
eight times before they get married.
One of the differences between the
measles and the eccentricities OF
genius Is that the latter are not nee
essarily fatal If they strike in.
When a man disgraces himself his
first thought is not one of regret for
his own shame, but of what the world
will think.
In addition to tempting Eve, Satan
probably introduced money into the
Garden of Eden.
People have died for love that would
have made them miserable II they
could have had it.

Worth While in Reading.

Some one has suggested that GER
tain time set apart each Sunday shall
be devoted to reading with purpose.
Not just a book picked up at random,
and another on quite a different topic
when that is finished. At the end OF
winter little definite mental advance
is made from such method. This
winter take books relating, say, to
one country, or to a painter and his
pictures, or to any definite subject
that attracts you, and read on that
subject for even one or two hours
each Sunday. In three months there
will be definite mental results.

What II Costs to Be a Piu.

He put his elbows on the table,
He ate potatoes with knife;
He reached before the man beside him,
And belched against the latter's wife;
He wiped his nose upon his napkin,
He, "chonked" and stopped things here
and there
He never thought of those about him,
Or if he did he didn't care.
Next day he sought to win promotion,
But failed, and cursed his sorry lot;
The man whose dinner he had ruined
Was master of the place he sought!
Some men get in the trough and wallow,
Nor care what others think or say
There's nothing lost in having manners,
And being decent by the way.

Queer Funeral Customs.

1t would be difficult to find stranger
funeral customs than those practiced
by the Andaman islanders. The ma
tives actually drop the bodies of their
parents into the sea at the end of
ropes and leave them there until moth
ing remains but the bones, which they
gather and hang from the roofs of
their huts.
It is a common custom for man to
sit by the house and watch the bones
of some relative. This is the way they
have of showing their love and re-
spect.
The bodies are treated in this fash
ion so that the evil spirits cannot
tease and pinch them. AL that is
left are the dried bones, and these
are placed high so that if the evil
spirits wander into the huts they will
have a hard time to find them. If
bone is carried away it means some
bad spirit has seized it, and this indi-
