BIRD INSPIRES NEW DANCE.

New York, Dec. 2-(By Union AS
ISOLATED Press)-New dances appear
in New York every few weeks and SO
great is the craze for Terpsichorean
amusement that each new invention is
received with the august c%onsidera-
ton of a pronunciamento from WASH
ington or one of the seats Of the Eu-
ropean war. A bird in the New York
Zoo is responsible for the latest step,
however. He is really a bird of q
dancer. His name is Cock-of-the-
Rock or the rupicola cotingidae. He
comes from British Guiana and still
thinks of the birds at home, for he
dances around in a big circle just as
numbers of them do in the wilds Of
his native land. After he has COM
pleted the circle he thinks he ia a
whole flock of birds. The dance for
humans which has been evolved from
the idea is very attractive. The dam
GERS gather in a circle, something in
the "hands- round" fashion Of the old
time quadrille, then separate and do
a few fancy steps. he-Cock-of-the
Rock is a rare bird with beautiful red
and crane plumage. He has not faded
to any considerable extent since he
has been in capacity as is the case
with most birds.

DOES IT PAY.

For the benefit of those spendthrifts in public
ity, who expect a $1.25 advertisement grudgingly
placed in their local newspaper, to stimulate their
business for a whole year, and who think they are
being robbed when the local county editor char ged
them as much as Is or 20 cents per inch for space
for illumination of such-we print the most re-
cent rate card of the Curtis publications.
For the Ladies Home Journal, for one issue
as follows: So line, $4,000 a full inside page
81, 900 the second or third cover in two colors
So, 900 for the third cover in three or four colors
$4,000 for the fourth cover in four colors. For
the Saturday Evening Post a rate of So a line is
announced; $4,000 for full page; $4,000 for second
cover in two colors; $4,000 for the center double
page in black, or $4,000 for double page in two
colors.
If it didn't pay the advertisers to reach the
possible buyers through such expensive publica-
lions, one months trial would settle the matter.
These prices are cheerfully paid for the e~xploita-
ton of Sc and 1Oc articles. The dividends came
from the publicity investment instead of the arti-
Gle advertised. The rule for successful advertise
ing is to keep it up"

NEW YORK DAY BY DAY.

New York, Dec. 2-(By Union AS
ISOLATED Press)-New York is to have
a glimpse of real Russia when the
Russian bazaar for the benefit of the
sick and wounded soldiers of the Gar
opens in the Se~venty-irst Regiment
Armory Monday night. The armory
has been transformed for the bazaar;
Russian architecture, Russian music,
displays of great variety of Russian
art and Russian entertainers will be
on hand. Nazimova, Pavlowa and
others have volunteered their servi-
ces. There will be popular dancing
every afternoon and evening, for
which the Russian orchestra will al
~ternate with the Seventy-frst Regi-
ment band.
Russian arts and crafts will fill the
booths, and Russian dishes prepared
by Russian chefs and served by maids
in Russian costume, may be ordered
in the dining room. The bazaar will
be under the auspices of the Russian
American Relief Association of which
Nine. Bakmeteff, wife of the Russian
Ambassador, is president.
RAINBOW STOCKINGS.
Have you seen them-the rainbow
stockings? They are not for rainy
weather, either. It's something new
in the hosiery line, warranted not to
run and guaranteed to match any
gown. Some of the newest silken
sheaths for shapely ankles have the
promistic tints encircling the leg.
Others produce a sort Of bias color ef-
feet, but they all make you simply
dizzy with delight. A young woman
who wore the solar spectrum hose on
Fifth Avenue kept the policemen busy
rescuing pedestrians who forgot about
traffic when they saw all the colors
Of the new rainbow on her feet. I'm
til passersby get better acquainted
with the latest hosiery there is likely
to be an increase of accidents.
FERRIES ARE PASSING.
The old day Of ferry transportation
around New York is passing. Tun-
nels for vehicles and foot fearers are
next in order. Prominent business
men of New York and New Jersey
now describe the ferry system as
"antiquated and insufficient" and en-
gineers who have surveyed the pro-
jext and have drawn up the compre-
hensive plans for it's execution assert
tunnel connections between the high
way syetems of the two States are a
positive need.

CHRISTMAS

A story is told of three wise men who travelled
over the plains
In search of a great unnamable bliss
Such as lifts the heart when the angels kiss
And the joy they get for their pains.
These three wise men who travelled through faith
by plain and hill and stream,
Discovered their search by the aid of a star
That brought them together and led them afar
Fulfilling the hopes Of a dream.
There are oft-told tales of wise men who work and
discover and preach;
And make themselves rich, or other men rich,
With chattels of money, it matters not which,
So long as it comes within reach.
But these are the works the world can learn, the
works that the world doth well:
No listening ear to hear is made,
Of something done without parade,
For the act itself to tell.
And the greatest joy, since the one great search,
is no more sought abroad,
For the joy is found and daily reached
Through the good that the founders daily
preached .
And practised with one accord.
in the thought to give,
And the joy of the givers clears the way
For the generous wise to bless the day
They can live, and give, and live.
