princess spoke to him with great cor

60, she asked:

"Yes," returned the dying man;

That stockina Habit.
From the Frankfurter Zeitn

from the trankfurter Zeitung,
In the large towns going barefooted is a
thing which has to fight against social
preJudices, and even in war time it Is diff
ffcult. to establish the habit. although it
would be wise to save up stockings and
shoes for the bad weather. when We shall
need them. People wait for one another
to begin-watt until the warm summer has
passed. 1t Is really stupid, and we ought
not to be stupid in matters which are
connected with our immense struggle for
existence. But in this matter, as IN 9TH
ers, the young are quicker to find the
right course than the cautious and timor-
Gus old ones. Int the streets of our great
cities there is now an increase in the num-
Der Of stockingless wearers of sandals
mostly of the female sex. This method OF
economizing our supplies is more appro-
pirate to a large town than the more radl-
cal method of going barefooted. And it
really does not look bad. Perhaps the SAN
dal makers could take more account Of
feminine coquettishness and produce real
ly pretty ''dressy" samples. But even as
the sandals are they do quite well. Three
young mahens-as a matter of fact they
are already young ladies-haye just clat-
tered by in stockingless sandals. Two old
gentlemen stand at the corner of the
street and watch the merry young ones.
OF course they are ill unor old peo-
pie who are grumbling at this ''modern
scandal" Not a bit OF it. They nod to
one another, and 1t is easy to read their
satisfaction In their movements. The
three maidens. moreover, were not beau
ties; they were Just young and bold and
had risked 1t.

A saxon-French Cigar Lighter.

Several years ago the then new min
lister of France, NJ. Klotz, decided to
impose q tax of two francs, or 40
cents American money, on each cigar
lighter used in that country. The rea-
son for this is that the sale of matches
in France is in the hands Of the gov
eminent monopoly and the portable
lighters interfered with the sale of the
matches. On the other hand the
matches have become sc bad in quality
that they are subject of complaint and
ridicule. The law has become unpopu-
lar and there is an effort now being
made to have the order reScinded. Not
w~ithstanding the fact that IN in
creased tax was placed on tobacco by
the French government several years
ago, it has caused a tendency to in
crease smoking and that is proven by
the many smokers to be seer in public
places and thoroughfares.
