SILLY TO HIDE ADMIRATION
Writer Makes Point When He De- pIores What He Asserts Is Lin-
 gulstic Camoufiage.

@The only criticism l would make of you is that your heart Is so big It some times overrules your judgment" This is a remark that is often heard. What does it mean? As a rule it is not fn- tended as a criticism at all, but rather as a compliment. Why not, then, have done with linguistic camoufage? Why hide our admiration for friend under doubtful phrase that might leave sting7 Since at heart we are all sen timentaI, and sine, we consider good heart of more Iaal value than the head, both to it's possessor and to his friends, why not say So plainlyf How delicate we are, after all Or is 1t that most of US have been dishonest so long that even in our happiest con- versations we unconsciously resort to diplomatic expressions ?-Los Angeles Times.

RIGHTS AS "FREE ClTIZEN"'
Russian Workman Who Believed tie Owned a Part of the Street Car
 Track.

While walking along the Eevsky Prospect in Petrograd one morning we saw line of street cars that had evidently been blocked; in front of the foremost car was g crowd of people, says a writer in Russia. As we en- tered the crowd we saw man stand Ing on the track and arguing with the mot0rman. The motorman was plead ing with him to get off the track so that he could proceed with his car, and the man was maintaining that Russia was a free country, that he had just as much right on the track as the car had, and that he did not intend to move until he was person ally inclined to do so.
 A number of soldiers looked on, but no one attempted to remove the man from the track, and neither the motor man nor the conductor attempted to move the car, but resorted solely to moral suasion. The argument that finally induced the man to move was :o the effect that the motorman was 8 hard-working man and had to get to the car barn; the longer he was held there the longer It would take him to get through his work, and would not his brother workman please get off the track 50 that he could get the car to the barn? With that the free citizen" politely bowed, folded his arms and moved off the track, the crowd dispersed and the cars went on their way,

SPOILED BIG WEDDING FEAST
How Ex-Gernan Emperor Upset DfE- neT on Which Herr BaiIIn Had
 Spent Much Money.

Herr Ballin was noted for the ex- tr0vagant dinners which he gave on great occasions, says the Edinburgh Scotsman. Probably the most magnif- cent of all was that which he arranged to grace the wedding of the kaiser's daughter to the duke of Brunswick The floral decorations alone cost S1O,- GOO, the dinner worked out at about $S5 a plate, and the wines at about $30. But the dinner. from Herr Bal lin's point of view, was a failure, for the kaiser and kaiserin, who were to have been present, sent word in the afternoon that they could not come and it was in their honor. of course that Herr BaIlfn had spent his thou sands on the banquet. One of his servants has s"id that when Herr Bal lin received the message that the em- peror could not come. he flew into 8 tremendous rage. He sent for his butler, and ere the man had reached Herr Ballin's study; his master shouted out to him: "The emperor cannot come to dinner tonight-put the whole show of!' and then slammed the door. The butler did not know exactly what to do. To put off so important guests as were to be present was, of course, an impossibiIity but no one in the house hold dared to approach the mastor of it to suggest this. However, at about , o'clock Herr Ballin had sufficiently recovered his temper to come down stairs and give some necessary direc- tfons about the banquet.

MULE OF PECULIAR COLOR
How the Animals Strange Appear ance Was Brought About.

Two mules, drawing an army service wagon, caused a sensation in Knights bridge a short time ago. One mule was poor but honest in appearance, brown in color; the other was a deli cate shade of green. The green mule was solemnIy unconscious of the atten- tfon he was attracting. Effects of war oats?" asked a facetous United States soldier. A workman rubbed his eyes and then muttered, "camouflage." The A s. c. driver looked thoroughly ashamed of the turnout. He stopped to pick up a crate What is the mat ter with your pony?" asked a mild man. T am tired of being asked 1t, and it isn't pony" replied the driver. "It is all through the chemical. Good ness knows what color it will be to- morrow. It's coat was very light once, and the other mules used to kick it. We washed it in some chemical dye to make it darker. The sergeant can't remember the name of the dye, and now that it is wearing off, it is a different color each day. You are the last person I shall explain it to-" He drove off furiously-a khaki driver on a s1ate-gray lorry drawn by one hon. est brown mule and one shameless mule of an esthetic shade of green London Mail.

Women as Secretaries.

Since Mir. Lloyd George made the in- novation of appointing a woman secre- tary. the example of the prime min ister has been followed by some of his colleagues in the cabinet. One of the three private secretaries to MT. rBonar Law, the chancellor of the exchequer, having left recently to become deputy chairman of the board of inland reve- nue, the chancellor has decided to economize man power and at the same time give formal recognition of wom- ems growing efficiency by making Miss E. M. Watson one of his private secre- taries. These appointments of women civil servants to confidential posts in the entourage of the members of the British cabinet are highly popular among women workers generally who appreciate the honor thus done to their Sax~
