Chances.

Wherever people come together the
air is full of glances and yet for the
most part they are stolen, for the un-
written law In such cases is that one
person shall not look openly into the
eyes of another unless some mutual
acquaintance has uttered the meaning
less but extraordinary important
words Of Introduction. Perhaps it is
because custom demands that among
strangers glances Of shy appraisal or
frank interest must be stolen that they
nre so intense, so furtive and. in the
main. so interesting. The principal diff
ficulty in learning about them from
observation is, of course, that in order
to observe one must of necessity steal
n few glances. What one can learn in
a brief glance is little, but with pruc-
tice 1t becomes greater. and skilled
observer, used to thinking quickly and
to point about what he sees. can see
and learn much without making a
brazen nuisance Of himself.-Indian-

every good story originating in his

The latest going the rounds tells
how a soldier Of the rough-and-ready
style was returning to quarters near

hand. Coming across another mud

"Would you believe It," said the nrst
soldier, they've chucked me up to the
grade Of corporal"
"What of that7" replied the other:
didn't they chuck me up to the grade
of general?" (;
After nearly dropping his jug, the
soldier drew closer and made out three
faint stars on a mud-stained sleeve.
He drew himself up at attention and
saluted.
"Walk on, corporal" said General
Bailloud, who wouldn't consent to give
up his jug. !

Tents and Khaki Scarce.
Two items presented the most diff

khaki cloth. The country had been
pretty well drained of both by the de-

the war. In fact, one war Spectator

But clothing is only one side of
equipping an army. Tents upon tents
are needed. This is particularly big

tents have to be replaced every three

The phrase "the light of the moon

But he's get smile that fits his

And he wears it every day.
If things go wrong, he don't COM

He's always finding little ways
OF helping oher folks. ~.
He sees the good in every one,
Their faults he never mentions;
He has a lot of confidence
In peoples good intentions.
You soon forget what ails you
When you happen round this man;
He can cure a case Of hypo-

No matter If the sky is gray,
You get his point Of view,
And the clouds begin to scatter
And the sun comes breaking thru.
You'll know him if you meet him,
And you'll find it worth your while
To cultivate the friendship OF
The man behind the smile.

The special session of the twenty

by proclamation of Governor Gunter,

THE AUTOMOBILE
OF THE FUTURE

When we view the many styles of
modern automobiles, with their mag
nificent proportions and exotic para
phemalta, we are too apt to exclaim
that the zenith Of automobile 3nven-
ton has been attained.
AS we have been taught from child
hood, that anything is possible with
God, even so is 1t possible for in
ventive genius to bring the horseless
carriage to a state Of perfection not
yet dreamed of, and that this inven-
ton is in its infancy, when compar-
ed to the presumptiye mind that is
ever on the alert for deeper research
when another twenty-five years OF
mans ingenuity is applied to its
meo hanism.
The automobile OF the distant fu-
ture will be propelled by an electric
current gathered frcm the azure
vaults of space, as the vehicle Is in
motion, and compressed into a stor-
age battery that can he utilized and
governed at will. The wind shield
will be provided with an X-ray at
taohment that will enable the chauf-
feur's vision to penetrate the rocky
curves in our winding mountain reads
and detect approaching vehicles in
time to ward off danger.
The mac hine will also be supplied
with a horoscope, that will observe
the time and date of birth (should
one occur in the mae ehine) as well
as observing the planet that is to
guide the child's future destiny. An
electric dial will also warn an oper.
ator of an impending accident three
minutes before II is to take place
and will lessen the hazard of auto
mobile travel. It will also be provid
ed with invisible card tables that
rise from the floor upon the pressing
of an electric button, that drummers
may enjoy their favorite pastime
while travelling through romantic
glens and mountain dells.
These, and sundry improvements
will be added to automobile pleasure

kaisers, kings and czars are wither
