USING SPECS AS ORNAMENTS
Been Keeping the Paris Opticians
Exceedingly Busy.

Those whom fate has condemned
to wear spectacles may have some
difficulty in believing that anyone
could regard these articles as orna-
ments, to be worn with pride and
pleasure. This, however, remarks
writer in the Continental edition of
the London Mail, is nevertheless the
case with many Of the Senegalese
soldiers who fought in the war.
While on leave in Paris on their
way home, many of these gallant
warriors have invested in spectacles
as the surest means of impressing
their compatriots.
An optician relates that when he
tried to sell a pair Of spectacles with
plain glass to a Senegalese whose
sight was obviously excellent, the
soldier complained that they were no
good because they did not "make
everything look funny" The op-
tician Immediately supplied the SOL
dier with a pair of concave lenses
that would have done very we'll for a
short-sighted student. The customer
was satisfied at once, paid, and went
out, colliding on the way with vari-
GUS. pieces Of furniture.

HOW "TExAS" GOT IT'S NaME
Mere Accident Responsible for Appel
Iation Bestowed on Small Cabin
on River Steamers.

The texas on an American river
boat is the little cabin joined up to,
and generally a triAe lower than the
pilothouse, and is the sleeping quar-
ters for the pilots. How it got it,
name is told in con the Ohio," a.
Bennett Abdy's latest book.
"Oh-that-well, it's kinda inter.
estin' how that name got stuck onto
it. You see, in the early days O
steamboatin' all the cabins was
named after states-that's where the
name Fstateroom' comes from, see?
Well, there was bright young feller
in the Mississippi country who had
designed some right speedy boats, so
when he got contract to build an
extra smart and fancy packet-tte
Kate Barnesdale was her name-he
tried somethin' new. It was a little
deckhouse just behind the plot-the
idea being to provide more sleeping
room for passengers. Well, he didn't
know what to name the new contrap-
ton; but it so happened that the
boat went into commission on the
very day the state of Texas was ad-
mitted into the Union; so the new
cabin was named the texas"
