NO ROMANCE in HIS SOUL
Man Who Could Destroy Little Wife's
Illusion as He Did, Didn't De-
serve to Have One.

"John," she asked, nesting up to
him, for it was the third anniversary
Of their marriage, what was the hap
piest moment Of your life?"
"Ah, DEAR" he replied, 81 remember
1t well. 1 shall never forget it. If I
lived to be one hundred years old that
moment would always stand out as
plainly as it does tonight
She sighed and nestled a little clos
er, looking longingly up into his honest
blue eyes. After a moments silence
she urged: "Yes, but, John, dearest,
you haven't told me when it was"
"Oh," he answered. 81 thought you
had guessed it. 1t was when you
came to me in the autumn, if you re-
member, and told me that you had de-
cided to trim up one Of your old hats
so as to make it do for the winter"
Then the celebration of the third an
niversary Of their marriage became ex-
ceedingly uninteresting and formal

James Disappointment.

In Henry James "The Middle
Years. he tells of once hearing Ten
nyson read from his own works. His
disappointment is expressed in true
Jamesian style.
$50 lucidly all the while I consid-
cred, so detachedly I judged, so dis
sentingly, to tell the whole truth, I
listened; pinching myself, as say,
not at all to keep from swooning,
but much rather to set up some rush
of sensibility. 1t was all interesting,
it was at least all odd; but why in the
name of poetic justice had one an
GENTLY heaved and flushed with ones
own recital Of the splendid stuff If one
was now only to sigh in secret. Oh,
dear; oh, dear. The author lowered
the whole pitch, that Of expression,
that of Interpretation above all;
heard him, in cool surprise, take even
more out of his verse than he had put
in, and so bring me back to the point

Robert w. Chambers, the popular

Used First Sewing Machine.

The first woman in America to use
sewing machine died at Winsted, In
Connecticut, at the age of eighty-six.
She was Miss Elizabeth Kilbourn, who
in the fifties was a teacher in pri-
vate school at New Hartford. When
Elias Howe was experimenting with
his invention, he asked her to help
him, and so to her fell the honor Of
being the first to use the new machine.

Women are certainly making his
tory today. We have had everything
from the first oma conductor to the
first woman representative and now
news from overseas of the first
woman ambassador.
Nine. Rosika Schwimmer is the
name which will go down. in history
as hat of the first woman named to
head an embassy. Nine. Schwimmer
is the president Of the Hungarian
Woman's Suffrage and it will be re-
membered that she was one Of the
prominent figures of the Ford peace
mission. In fact she has been credit
ed with being the originator of the
peace ship idea.
Nine. Schwimmer is a Hungarian
pacifist and writer who now lives in
Switzerland. The Hungarian govern
ment has appointed her as ambassa-
dor for the post in Switzerland and
she will take up her duties shortly.
The situation in Hungary is such.
Nine. Schwimmer states. that the
government would be willing to abide
by any decision Of a peace confer
ence, n matter how unfavorable,"
because the government is helpless.
