Why Chinese Shops Are Small.

The average Chinese shop Of any

closed by shutters at night In the
day time the shutters are removed.
These shops are fourteen to sixteen
feet wide on the street, and the room
is not deeper than this. Three or four
feet back from the front counter
runs, behind which there Is shelving.
The storerooms are not deeper because
Of the peculiar arrangement Of Chinese
houses. The typical Chinese house is
only one story in height and is built
on all four sides OF square courtyard.

Compelling Use of surnames

Some folk have been compelled by
law to change their surnames. In 1903,
for instance, the name of MacGregor
was prescribed, and those, who had
previously borne 1t were compelled to
adopt another. In Ireland, also, as far
back as 1885. an act was passed order
ing the inhabitants of certain districts
to 'gae appareled like Englishmen.

act fuyther directed that those concern
ed should take for their new names
''the name Of town. as Sutton, Ches-
ter, Cork or color. as White. Black.
Brown" and that they and their wives
should use this new surname under
pain Of forfeiting all their belongings.

PRETTY IDEA FOR MILLINERY
Hand-Painted Effects Are Among the Season's Novelties and Have
 Been Received With Favor.

The application of analine dyes in hand painted effects to millinery of the season Is an entirely new device, and the result is unique. White os trich feathers. long and thick, are dec orated in flower designs in natural colors The design runs upward with the quill and spreads out on the fiues.
 Another fancy is to paint the straw hat directly. just in the design the flowers would make, or fruit, were it placed upon it. On the brim or on the crown, or partly under the brim. or OR it's upturned edge. Here the pattern is traced in brilliant tones. White straw and natural straw are the only shades so decorated. Any surface or quality may be used. Gar den hats are really pretty done in this way. A design of cherries in red with green leaves and gray twigs of stems Is, for instance, especially odd.

WHY SERVE CAKE WITH TEAR
Penehant for Serving inspprs- priste Combinations.

Anyone who serves waters with tea is lacking in gastronomic imagination. Drinking tea and eating a wafer ia like having picnic in the woodshed. or wearing an Easter hat with go- loshes, declares writer in the Atlau- tic Monthly.
 It is hueless compromise where there might be vivid delight. Many otherwise excellent hostesses fail to perceive the relation between after noon tea and it's edible accompant- ments. They will serve you a hard. obstinate biscuit that you break, red faced, on the rim of your saucer, send ing, as likely as not. your cup bounc ing oyer the etsttTgr e-ese, a91 your tea sVlashing into your neig2hzzu's lsp. :, erithey generously provide you with 8 huge, gelatinous cube of cake that ad- heres to your saucer, and renders you temporarily web-fingered, the while you attempt to formulate an epigram on Henry James, or discourse glibiy as to why women like men.
 There is yet another type of hostess who passes with your tea a dribbling, sandwich, ooztug salad dressing at. every pore and containing. half con cealed, malicious, indivisible lettuce leaf. People who thus fail of main taining the fitness of things at the tea hour have no genuine apprecia- tion of the drink which they dispense.

HOW MAUREL LEARNED TO ACT
Friend of Great Earrytone Told Him of His Shorteoming, to Very
 Good Effect.

London.-The secret of Chaliapine (the Russian singer who has been so successful In London) seems to be the same as that of Maurel. one of the first of the great modern operatic barrytones.
 Maurel began as a star singer in the old style. One day when he was prac- ticing in his hotel he received visit from q painter who lived in stdio at the top of the hotel. The painter came to say how much he had enjoyed the singing of the great barrytone. Your voice enters my room like a ray of sunshine. I have bought seat for tomorrow to hear you in William Tell"
 Maurel did not see the painter again for some time and when he met him In the street some weeks afterward he asked him if he had been to "Wil- liam Tell" The painter seemed very cold about 1t. He complained that Maurel had not given the impression er" Maurel took this to heart and from that time studied the art of act ing until it was said of him that he was "an artist who could act and paint with his voice."
 Verdi said of Maurel, after the first performance of "Otello," When he sings his best he makes one forget he Is singing" It seems to be the same with Chapiapine

WORK ON THE LAWN
 AND HOME GROUNDS
If Patchy and Bare in Spots Keep on Seeding 1t the Whole
 Summer Through.

How are the lawn and home grounds in general? Are they all that should be to make summer home life enjoyable and pleasing sight to the passer by?
 If the lawn is patchy and bare in spots, keep on seeding it the whole summer through the seed will finally catch and fill up the bare places.
 White clover is a fine lawn plant, but many find that it dies out after a few years. White clover, as all the elovers, is biennial. completely dy- ing after the second year. If the lawn is kept closely clipped, whit clover seed should be sown each fall or spring to insure permanent stand
 The same result may be secured by not moving in the fall, allowing the plants to blossom and seed.

Upward Strokes of Beauty.

When my little girl was born the old colored nurse I got for her told me that if I brushed her hair ths wrong way it would make it curly writes correspondent of the Pitts burgh Dispatch. Whether that was what did it or not do not know, but her hair, while it never really curled. has always stood away from her head in soft, pretty way. Mammy's in structions set me to thinking. l real ized that all faces fall as they grew old. and I wondered why 1t wouldn't be wise to wash and dry the face up instead of down. I not only taught my little daughter to do this-she al- ways wipes upward-but I began on myself Today, at forty-seven, not a muscle in my face has fallen; there are no droopy lines in it. and no sag ging shows at my chin. My eyelashes are always noticed because they curl upward so prettily (they didn't before I began the upward treatment), and my daughters are just like them.

and vigorous root system than is pro-
 duced by only tipping the bruised ends.
 The compression of the soil in a
 wide hole is desirable to an extent
 when it is not too wet, but planting
 in narrow hole where the roots are
 cramped and curled must be con- demned in the light of general expert ence which proves beyond all ques- tion that wide spread of fibrous roots is conducive to rapid and healthy growth.
 What do we find on digging up dwarfed. dying or otherwise unhealthy bush Almost, if not invariably, we
 see roots cramped and twisted and
 almost devoid of fibers. And why does transplanting young trees and bushes in nursery induce the production of
 a mass of fibrous roots, except as a. | consequence of transference from a stale and compact place, to soil in | condition Of friable mold? Almost any practicable degree of pressure over the roots in planting
 may be advantageous, but it does not follow that solidity to check sideways
 root growth Is also beneficial. If it
 were so the annual digging. or, rather, forking of fruit plantations would call for condemnation.
 Experienced growers of fruit most 1 ly agree that they always find that trees planted well in accordance with what is generally considered the proper methods flourish better than
 those less carefully planted and this.
 there is every reason to believe. is
 the common experience.
 I am sure that experiments serve a
 useful purpose but should strongly
 recommend growers of fruit not to act on large scale upon the results of any experiment, and although firm
 CT planting than is usual may be tried, prudence directs that any furth- CT testing of the methods described
 should be limited, for some time to come, at least, to small operations

KITTEN IN A CHURCH FONT
Feline Yowls in Fright and interrupts the Paster's Sermon-Res-
 cued by Usher.

Riverside, Cal-Unusual presence of mind was evidenced by Dr. G. F. Holt, pastor of the First Baptist church, when his secondly and thirdly were rudely interrupted by the yowl- ing of a frightened cat. Adjuring his parishioners to pay no heed to the un- earthly noise, which grew more ear splitting every moment, the preacher raised his voice and went ahead. The ushers, meanwhile, went on a quiet hunt for the intruder, and after long quest one intrepid searcher discovered a kitten struggling desperately to keep it's head above the water in the bap- tistry, which had been used earlier in the evening In connection with the re- ception of new members, The rescuer received the thanks of the pastor and a meow of gratitude from tae shiver- ing feline.

Best Use of Scent.

The best way to use scent, if you care to use it at all, is to put a deli cate extract in an atomizer and spray yourself with it. Strong scents are offensive and the most subtle and elusive odor is that obtained from, a generous use of sachet bags laid among ones lingerie, in the drawers with ones handkerchiefs, gloves and veils, and possibly fastened in the front of ones stays or in some inner fold of the bodice. One can buy many different kinds of powder for sachets. but whatever you choose, heliotrope. violet, rose or carnation, remember that the addition of little orris pow der will add to its strength and make it more lasting.

EAGLE MOTHER FIGHTS MAN
Huge Bird Battles Defending Young Until Crippled by the Most Se-
 were Clubbing.

Oroville, Cal.-Deputy Sheriff Alvin Baul had thrilling experience with 5 huge eagle near Stirling City when he captured the birds fledgeling, Faul was compelled to beat back the moth- CT bird with a club.
 Faul was driving along in his auto from this city and noticed the bird cir cling around it's nest In tall pine. He decided to make try for the young bird. As he approached the nest the big bird rushed him and he had to break off a rotten bough and use it as club to protect himself. He struck the bird several times and wounded 1t so it could not fly.
 He brought the eaglet, which is about the size of chicken, back to this city, and now has It in captivity.
