There are no posers on the grand

hair and play golf. Authors cannot
be distinguished from ordinary men.
Art students are abandoning their
amazing clothes. Even poets have
given up poetical locks, and instead Of
writing pretty fancies worry us with
poems of the outspoken natural school.
Music is in tweeds, literature is in
navy blue, and poetry is in bowler
hat. Apparently there is no chance Of
any return of affectation. The world
becomes more natural every day, and
every hour some neglected pose dies
natural death. There are no startling

Something to Be Thankful For.

In her dressing room one evening
Sarah Bernhard summoned one Of
her attendants, and ordered her to
bring some peaches from the nearest
shop, Either the maid misunderstood
the order or she thought, as the say
ing goes, THAT any old fruit would
do for she came back a few min.
utes later with half dozen plump,
juicy pears in basket,
At the moment Bernhard was de-
claiming to friend about the dearth
of good new plays, and anybody
would have thought she was too alb
sorbed in her lamentations to notice
the maids mistake. She took pear
from the basket slowly and, appar-
emily, unconscously, and the maid
turned to leave the room.
In an unlucky moment the girl
paused at the door and looked round.
Then, with astonishing swiftness and
accuracy of aim, Bernhard raised
her hand and the pear few through
space, smashing itself to a juicy pulp
ON the girls face.

Mean Swindle.

slavery by novelists and playwrights:
These weak writers can even shock

who read their vapid stories or see
their vapid plays are fooled as badly
as the $4,000 German schoolgirls

Posts, Up or Down =?

The agricultural experiment station
Of Ohio has been making some tests
as to which end Of post should be
set in the ground. Farmers generally
believe in planting it with the butt
or root end upward. on the principle
that, as it is easier for the sap to run
up the tree than down it, setting the
post upside down tends to prevent the
rise of water and helps to keep the
wood dry.
The Ohio officials planted 156 black
locust posts 20 years ago. One-third
of those set top down have rotted of
and only little more than one-sixth
of those set top up have met similar
fate. They reach the conclusion thai
there Is no difference which end is
put into the ground, except that the
sounder or longer end should have
the preference.
