New York bachelor, will soon be a
lost art-in this town, at any rate"

asked a woman friend.

like before it Is cooked?" was his APP
parently irrelevant reply.
Mono" the woman replied, Il
don't believe | do"
Right there" said the bachelor,
"you have an answer to your own
question. If you were the only wom-
an who didn't know raw eggplant
when you saw it, or If eggplant was
the only raw vegetable you were not
acquainted with, | would have no
grounds for the assertion; but | have
it on the authority of restaurant pro-
prietors and marketmen that half the
women who eat all their meals out
could not call eggplant, satisfy, pars-
nips, kohlrabi, and most of the turnip
family by name If they net them face
to face. Is that true?"
Il am afraid it is" the woman ac-
knowledged. But most men wouldn't

How to See Through Paper.

A very remarkable experiment
which any one a repeat with very
little trouble has been unearthed by a
German. Take a piece of paper of
such thickness that, when it is laid
upon a piece of printed matter, the
characters just show through, but can.
not be read. Placing it over a printed
sheet, impart to 1t a circular motion
to and fro, and to your surprise you
will find that now you can read the
print below the paper.
II Is rather difficult to explain this
peculiar effect. The explanation Of
fered is that the paper has thin places
In 1t, and by rapidly moving it over
the print, every part OF the printed
matter is exposed In turn underneath
one or the other of the thin places In
the paper. and thus the entire print
can be read. However that may be.
the experiment is interesting and very
simple, requiring for its performance
only the simplest means imaginable.
