 The great Italian composer was waited on one day by delegation who informed him that a statue of himself was to be erected In white marble, and that 1t would adorn the public square of his natal city. The artist inquired how much the statue would cost
 "Twelve thousand francs" was the reply.
 "Well," said Rossini, ''give me that sum- and on state occasions I'll go and stand on the pedestal myself, so that instead of mere copy you'll have the original"

Commercial Morals Low In Japan.

China, for long centuries a highly developed nation. has an elaborate code of commercial ethics. Japan, on the other hand, which is nation com paratively new to civilization, is not so scrupulous, says writer In Sys- tenn. He continues:
 "In Japan they say contract is never settled thing, whereas in China it is absolutely binding. The Japanese admit they have no tradi- tions in trade, and the average Jap anese merchant is firmly convinced that if he orders goods today, and the market declines before they arrive, he does perfectly right to refuse them. Banks in Japan recognize this trait In Japanese character. There is no such thing as lending money to man on his personal note"

A Pretty Dimity Blouse.

A smart blouse of striped dimity Is cut upon tailored shirt lines, with two narrow box plaits at either side of the opening ill front. At each side of these, and also separating them, are inserts of wide heavy beading. The straight rolling collar has lines of bending inset in the same fashion, and is finished by an inch-wide hem of dou- ble dimity. Smart little cuffs of alter hating bands of dimity and lines of beading finish the tailored sleeves.

 ''If you please, sir" asked this in dividual "how far off can one hear thunder?"

Just how early in life q satisfaction In pretty clothes dawns on the eternal feminine mind. is one of those interest ing questions that no one has taken the trouble to get definitely answered. But we know il is one of the earliest of our joys and the most lasting. In the picture above d little maid of five seems to be discovering her party frock. Life is one continual round of more or less dainty clothes for her, and she finds herself on a special oc- easion in something more filmy and frilly than she has noticed before.
 This little party froek is made of fine white net and trimmed with lit tie narrow Val lace insertion and edc- ing. The skirt K full, finished with q hem and tuck at the bottom and no other trimming It Is set onto a very short whist having many fine tucks running from shoulder to waist band and flounce extending below the Waisthand. This flounce is finished with row of Val insertion finished with scant frill of Val edging. The square neck is finished in the same way.
 Little dresses of this kind are some times decked out with gay ribbon TO- settes, but they have been left off of this one; perhaps this accounts for a strand of small pearl beads that make the little wearer very splendid. The dress Is worn over q lace-trmmed pet ticoat, with several rows of Val jnser- ton set in fine lawn skirt and frill of Val edging at the bottom. Now that the requirements of flower girls and other youthful attendants on the June bride must soon be considered. this little net frock Is especially in tereSting. It can be worn over col

Pongee may be made to look like new, no matter how many times it is washed, if it Is washed properly. First # should be rubbed and squeezed gent ly with the hands in studs made of Mke-warm water and q good white soap. When quite clean, lt should be rlnsed also in Iuke-warm water sev- cral times and the water squeezed out gently, not Wruug out. When perfectly dry, instead of sprnklinc 1t, rub or squeeze the pangee gently with the hands until il ls well crumpled. T&is removes any hard or deep wrinkles. Iron then with vary hot iron and your pongee will look as fresh as new.

POWERS REQUIRED BY WAR
Quality of Self-ReIiance the First Requisite of the Really Great
 Commander.

War Is wont to be associated with the physical rather than the intel lectual or moral qualities. says Col. TheO A. Dodge in the Forum. The idea of youth and strength and ardor is coupled with the military profes- sion. Alexander at the Granicus, Scipio at Zama. Napoleon in '06 Me Clellan in 62, represent to the popular fancy the typical soldier. But war, from the standpoint of the captain. is primarily an intellectual process. The successful conduct of campaign re- quires. first. exceptional mental pow CTS; next, m2ral qualities of high order; and last. a physique to with stand the drain of unremitting mental and nervous tension. The gladiatOrial courage which prompted the little Roman legionary to close In upon the burly Teuton with the sword, or the prize-fghting pluck which carried the guards through the day at Waterloo, are not as essential to the captain as the moral force which on the broad strategic field helps him to push his own scheme home despite the threat ening maneuvers of his opponent. which on the narrower field of battle enables him to risk the lives of thou sands of his men upon the result of calculation. or to watch with equipoise the compromising movements of his adversary. or to hold back his battal- ions for the supreme moment, are not as essential as that self-reliance which prompts him to great under takings and sustains him through their performance.

Power of the o. Soma.

Consider the old song. Immediate ly all the things that make up the present existence fade into dim ob- scurity and for while. for the dura- tion of the melody at least. We live in glory of the song and its association.
 One thing has remained the same and that is the song. The years have made no change in the beauty or the meaning of that. In the face of the constant change and activities which mean mans existence and the worlds progress, the song has remained the same.
 With the keen insight of human na- ture, authors have been appreciative of the power of the haunting melody. and have made 1t the theme of their work.

Cannot Be Done.

An excess of efficiency merely de feats itself" said sage Professor Pate. "The happy medium lies in knowing not only what to do but what not to do. For instance, you eannto put a sneeZe back after 1t has emerged, nor can a woman reform bow-legged man by marrying him. You cannot ig- nore the inevitable by refusing to bow to It. There is no such thing as eon- vincing the average Hon. that the war will not be won by verbosity- You cannot accomplish the impossible so why waste time and energy in try ing ?"-Kansas City Star.
