BIG FEET INDICATED.

So many unkind things have been
said about the big feet of Chicago
girls that it is refreshing to find
some defense of them. Now comes
the president of the Retail Shoe
Dealers association with the asser-
ion that while Chicago girls do
have the largest feet, yet their pedal
tiles are things of beauty if not joys
forever. With good logic he de-
clares that a foot should be judged
by its shape and not by its size, and
when put to this supreme test the
Chicago foot captures all the gate
money. And thus is another Islander
chased to its hole.

ALL HAVE THEIR PET BELIEFS
Oressmakers and Mllliners Seem
About as superstitious as
Are Sailors.

"Opening an umbrella in a work
shop is an infallible sign that the
thoughtless one will soon receive 10
tice, while the unfortunate girl who
lets her scissors fall on their point
is in danger of premature decease,"
says La Revue in describing the SUI
perstitions of the Partisan dress
makers.
"If a seamstress places a hair in
the hem of any garment she is work
ing on she will soon be the lucky
possessor Of a similar garment her
self. A work girl who uses two
needles for the same piece Of work
is certain to be married sooner or
later, while the dressmaker who has
patience enough to put aside 200
small pins will soon find a iance.
"The little milliner is just al SUI
perstitious as her dressmaking COM
rade. If she lets a hat fall twice il
is almost certain to find a customer,
while if she moistens the inside Of
the crown with the tip of her tongue
the purchaser is certain to be de.
lighted with it. A milliner who is
unfortunate enough to fit on a brida
hat and veil is condemned to lonely
sp~insterhood for the rest of her days
Injecting two priests together is
for some inexplicable reason, a sigl
of a weeks bad luck; nothing o
course would induce a workgirl t.
start in a new place on Friday.
Singing a hymn while working i
a pure sign of the thing most feared
by the industrious midinettes, anC
that is long and enforced idleness
The dead season. as they call it,
their nightmare"

Young Mems Christian Association of
the United States. including several
thousand members of the allied health

to cooperate in the tuberculosis day
campaign during the week beginning
December Z, according to an an
nouncement made from the headquar-
tiers OF the movement In New York
This movement, which is spreading
all over the civilized world, deserves
and should have the support Of every
intelligent man and woman, not only
for the safeguarding of others, but
for self protection.
Only through the work Of an or

New Evidences of the
Governments Recognition.

The cruiser San Francisco, used as
a mine depot supply ship, is expected
in Pensacola within :. few days, hav-
ing been ordered from Philadelphia to
this port. Closely following the San
Francisco will be dozen or more tor
pedo boats, eight of them new vessels,
which will remain here for their
shaking down period and trial trips.
Supplies are being secured for these
torpedo boats, and later in the month
number of other vessels, torpedo
destroyers and similar craft, are ex-
pected to arrive, to be closely followed
by the Montgomery, mine experiment
ship. which is expected to reach these
waters early in December.
These activities can point to but one
thing: That the government consid-
ers Pensacola as logical naval base
for operations in southern waters.
Whatever the outcome OF the Mexi-
can situation may be, whether for
peace or war, from the moves that
have been made by the navy and the
war departments, it is evident that
Pensacoia's value as to harbor facili-
ties and location, has not been, and
cannot be, overvalued.
