Surprised the Hobo.

John e. Brennan, the famous Kalem
comedian, played joke upon a hobo,
while "The Winking Zulu" was being
produced, which scared the knight of
the dusty road out of four years
growth.
The painting had been completed
and Brennan, on his way from the
studio one evening, almost stumbled
across the body of a hobo lying in
toxicated. An idea occurred to the
comedian. He impaired it to some Of
the attaches of the studio, with the re-
suit that the tramp was carried into
the building and placed in front of the
Winking Zulu.
Presently the hobo revived. His
eyes wandered about the building
confusedly and rested upon the
painting 1t winked at him. Star
tied, tho tramp sat up. The Zulu
winked again. With a frightened
roar, the man burst through the
door. Brennan vows that the hobo
did the next mile in less than q
minute.

ems. Parame, Saint-Enogat, Saint Bril-
&C, Saint Lunaire, Saint-Servan are
around grim-looking Saint-Malo, like
SO many delicate, dainty flowers
grouped around an imposing old oak.
All these last named places are, in the
warm season, filled with summer
guests.
But the most frequented, fashiona-
BILE and delightful place of the emer-
aid coast is Dinard, where hordes OF
good hotels, rich villas and gardens,
and any number of pleasures attract
the best American, English and
French people, both in summer and in
winter. AS soon as the season at
Deauville is finished, it Is to Dinard
that the social functions progress.
Dinard is filled with charming villas
and resembles a landscape from
dreamland. 1t is the laughing city
French and foreign gather to enjoy
life at its best. There are dinners,
receptions, five-o'clock teas, artistic
matinees, galas and soires- altogether
whirlwind of elegance with pretty
women wearing the latest novelties in
gown and all else that charms and
fascinates ones imagination. Mrs.
Hughes Hallett, who has lived in Din
ard for a number of years, is the soul
of the fashionable life there.
There is a charming new casino at
Dinard, where balls, concerts and bac-
carat parties are given and which has
a good restaurant attached. There
are also any number of first-class ho-
tells, among the best of which Is, of
course, Mr.. Ruhps Hotel Royal, stu
ated right on the sea front, with
charming grounds, beach and garden.

race, very dark and short They have

Brttany's Place In History.
In ancient times Brittany, under
the name Armorica, was the seat of
confederated Armorican tribes, who
were of Celtic and Cymric origin.
Traces of them remain in the old
Cymric dialect of the three most west
erly departments, and the numerous
so-called Druidical monuments to be
found in that section.
Under the Romans, the country was
made the Provincial Lugdunensis; and
for two centuries was prosperous I'M
der the Roman peace" But in the
disorders of the third century A. D. it
suffered severely, and was reduced al
most to a wilderness. It was repeo-
pied by numerous immigrations from
Great Britain caused by the Anglo
Saxon invasion of the fifth and sixth
centuries. and then its name was
changed to Brittany.
The little province suffered severe
| ly from numerous 1nvasions for CEN
turtles, and the question whether Brit
tany was vassal state of France was
the cause of many battles.
Finally, after many treaties Brittany
was declared incorporated with
France in 1882 by Francis /. It re-
tanned local parliament until the out
break of the revolution. During the
revolution, brittany, which was in.
tensely loyal to the Bourbons. was
the arena Of tanguinary conflicts. and
especially of the uprising Of the Chou
ans. who lastreappeared in 1880.

OF the protein substances used for
food none is of more importance than
those contained in wheat. Next to
rice. 1t Is today tho most largely used
grain.
The wheat berry is fruit and not
a seed. The actual wheat seed is the
germ or embryo, kidney-shaped body
which is found at the base of the Der.
ry and connected with the root
through the placenta, which is in eff
feet cord joining the berry with its
stalk. Botanists distinguish six skins
on the wheat berry-epicarp, meso-
carp, endocarp, episperm, tegmen and

force a general conflict with the
United States.
The dictator is using every means to
raise troops and funds. He is making
paper money galore. A guard of sol

printing office where it is being pro-
