When Honesty" Paid.

The secretary of the New York
Prison association tells Of the answer
a thief gave to the question us hon
esty the best policy" 1t was in the
Elmira reformatory, where class was
undergoing instruction. A young
man asked permission to answer the
question. Il believe honesty is the
best policy said he, because Of a
case where l knew it to work that
way. See? There was two young
fellows in New York and they was
crooked, see? And they didn't sue
coed. They went to Philadelphia, and
they turned over new leaf and
agreed to be square and honest. They
opened clothing store, see? And
they prospered. They got everybodys
confidence, and they borrowed $780,
600 to enlarge their business, and
then they failed and got away with
every cent of the money. which they
never could have done IL they hadn't
been honest. See?"

Current for Heating Homes.

According to the Electrical World.
electric heating has been seriously
tried in a great many places in Nor
way, and reports made by royal COM
mission indicate that a pleasant, even
temperature is possible with an ex-
penditure of from 80 watts to 35 watts
per cubic meter of space-35 cubic
feet. This will keep the temperature
OF a room at Ga degrees Fahrenheit
with auxiliary heating when the Their
mometer registers as low as from 10
to degrees Fahrenheit. Under these
circumstances electric heating Is as.
sumed to be cheaper than other fuel
when the energy can be supplied at
81 to 1925 per horse power per annum
on maximum demand. - Scientific

The administration of justice has
many angles someweat incomprehensi-
BILE, we must confess. to the layman
who sees only the bald facts of mat
tiers. For example: in the case of Nc
Lean recently sentenced in Saginaw
County for the murder of Schmitzer,
the facts, as published. indicated that
Schmitzer had not laid hands on his
assailant, that he was counseling him
to go about his business peaceably, and
that for so doing he was brutally struck
over the head with beer bottle and
murdered. If these are the facts why
should the murderer be allowed to plead
guilty to manslaughter and receive a
sentence the minimum duration of
which is seven years? Is the fact that
the man was intoxicated logically to be
urged in his defense? If so, it will soon
become the popular procedure for MUIR
derers to get drunk before, whatever
the cause, they proceed to the work of
slaughter. Drunkenness will be surer
defense than insanity. We are not with
out sympathy for the transgressor,
even for the murderer to whose delin-
quency society has been a contributory
factor through participation in the
booze traffic, but we believe that pro-
lection of society is paramount con-
sideration and that the punishment
should fit the crime.

False Eyes for Animals.

Among the most difrcult things
which taxidermists have to do is max
ing glass eyes for the animals they
mount. These eyes are made OF glass,
hollow within and open at the back,
so that the inner surface may be paint
ed any color. No two animals eyes
are alike, and 1t requires a great deal
of skill and practice before a man is
competent to paint the eyes quickly.
A lions eye, for example, is large and
bnownish- black, while the iris Is
chrome yellow, but streaked in such q
peculiar fashion that 1t is an extreme
ly dificult thing to initiate II well.
The eye OF a giraffe is still more DIFF
fcult, as that animal has a brownish-
black eye with a peculiar purplieh
sheen, very hard to initiate. O.

Women and the Arta.

I believe that woman loves the arts
better than does man. She is better
ground for the development Of a great
artist, for she approaches art with
sympathy, while the great bulk of men
approach IL with fear and dislike,
shrinking from the idea that 1t may
disturb their self-complacency. The
prejudice goes SO far that, while wom-
en- are attracted to artists as lovers,
men are generally afraid Of women
who practice the arts, or they dislike
them. II is not a question Of sex, 1t
10 question of art.-W. i. George In

II became known that movement
was on foot in certain political quar-
tiers either to segregate Lake Charles
from the rest Of the parish, so as to
cut off it's representation on the police
jury, or to create . new parish
ward south and east Of the city and
assign one Of the Lake Charles police
jurors to it, Petitions are being pre-
pared for presentation to the police
jury asking for the creation OF two
new voting precincts in the Third par
ish ward, in which the city OF Lake
Charles is located.
The plea advanced by those behind
the movement is that the country part
of the Third ward is not represented
in the present arrangement. Outside
Lake Charles and its suburbs the ward
has a population OF probably less han
one hundred families.
The real grievance against the Lake
Charles members Of the police jury,
and the city generally, it is said, IS
that the $1,OOOOOO highway system
was let by contract, whereas, in their
opinion, the work should have been
parceed among the country voters. If
Lake Charles influence can be success
fully Countermanded, according to
reports, the highway department will
be abolished.

DdlOu IUubC.-
The Louisiana Railroad Commission

the application of the Western De,

increase Of from 81 to 81 per day IN

cd the commission to put into effect

to apply to interstate shipments and
to run until July 10. The increase
was granted by the Interstate Com,

It would not mitigate the car shortage
by forcing shippers to release cars
quicker.
Representative of the New Orleans

the proposed increase at a hearing on
the case which was held by the com.
mission. They argued that shippers
in Louisiana were not to blame IN
any way for the car shortage. and the
increased demurrage charges would
be an unfair burden on them.
