With The decentralization of the army
some new stories are being demobiliZed
here. one is the story of the bright
thought of an adjutant. The command
ing officer of a force behind the lines
had acquired or "won" Gas they say
in the army a COW, and he was much
envied by all the mcsses. The adjutant
had a cottage with IL garden, in which
he had some good Strawberries. One
day the c. o. without a word went into
this garden and helped himself to the
adjutant's Strawberries. The adjutant
could not, of course, rebuke his chief,
bur he put up this notice:
"Trespassers in this strawberry gar
den will have their COW shot."-LondOn

One day the late James Mcneil Whis-
tier, the famous artist, vas in a London
hat shop. He was bare headed, as the
clerk had taken his hat to another part
of the shop to match it.
AS Whistler stood there. leaning idly
against the counter, a man rushed up to
him, took off his hat, thrust it into
Whistler's face INC exclaimed in anger:
Look here. l want you to understand
that know something about hats, and
! insist this hat doesn't fit me-"
Whistler looked at the man with INFER
est. then he smiled politely. "Please put
the hat en-" he said, and the angry man
did SO. Whistler looked him over criti-
cally froEa head to foot. then in his PEE
culiar, drawling manner he said:
''Quite right. quite right, sir, it does
not fit. Neither does your coat, and
Furthermore your waistcoat is too large.
and your trousers are a horrible color"
After Whistler went out it took the
proprietor half an hour to convince the
man that it was not one of his own
clerks who had insulted him.

Record 'Loa Raft.

While log RATS are by no means
new, the huge raft recently construct
ed at Haparanda, Sweden, and used
to ship a large number Of logs to Co
penhagen. Denmark, is worthy Of pass
ing mention. The great raft measured
1857 feet long 55h feet wide, 10 feet
above the water line and 1871 feet be-
low.
The raft took six months to build
and contains as much wood as four
big steamers. It is held together by
an ingenious system of steel cables
and wires, and is capable of carrying
a large amount of material. The crew

When Flowers Sleep.

From the Seattle Post -Intellig.acer.-
h lowers sleep is evident IL the
most casual observer. The beautiful
daisy opens at sunrise and closes at sun
set, whence its name Days eye" The
morning glory opens its flower with the
day. The -four o'clock awakes ut 4
o'clock in the morning, but closes its
eyes in the middle of the day, and the
dandelion is in full bloom only while
there is strong light. The habit of some
flowers is certainly curious, and furnishes
one of the many instances which prove
the singular adartability of everything
in nature. The reason is found in the
method by which this class OF flowers is
fortified.
Flowers which are fertilized by nigh.
flying insects derive no advantage from,
being open by day; and. on the other
nand. those which are fertilized by bees
would gain nothing by being open at
night. Nay. it YOU be a disadvantage
because it would render them liable t.
be robbed of their honey and pollen by
insects which are incapable of fertili*-
ing them. 1t is possible. then. that the
closing of flowers may have reference to
the habit OF insects. and 1T may be OBJ
served. also, in support of this. that wind
fortified flowers never sleep.

Women "cuItivatev Mustache.


The Anus, the "Celtic" ace OF
Japan, live in the island of Yeddo.
The most noticeable popularity about
Ainu women is that they have tat
tooed on their upper and lower lips
what resembles a mustache. The
women are not considered attractive
without this decoration, and their
matrimonial prospects are quite in
jured unless it appears.
The mustache is begun when the
girl is quite a child, until it extends
partly across the cheek, the material
used being the SCOT from burning
birch bark. The face is cut and the
black rubbed in. Afterwards it is
washed in a solution of ash bark
liquor to fix the color.
The Ainu ome are said to he
usually finely formed, straight and
well developed. with small hands and
feet. Their eyes are a beautiful soft
brown, their hair black and most lux
uriant and their complexion olive,
with often a deep, rich color in their
cheeks.
The native cloth-of which their
garments are made-is woven from
the fiber Of the bark Of the elm tree.

] met in the Authors Club. recently,
one of the highbrow socialists that Roose-
welt would have styled a ''parlor bolshe-
visit" an effeminate person with an af-
fected voice which he had dedicated to
downtrodden abor. He waxed eloquent
on the inequalities of the present sys-
tenn. and prophesied a coming day when
here in America all men would be equal.
He exclaimed: What right has Joe Ty-
nan got to $500, 600 a year when the great
masses of the toilers in the ship yards
earn only a livinx wage?"
Never mind Joe lyman" I answered;
"he's in the ship building lire. You don,

Their do l. We do know the writing bust
ness, SO l say: What right has Rudyard
kipling got to 81 a word?'"
My frienc, being something of a critic,
was a connoisseur. of values in the liter
airy market. and cdmitted that Kirling
was worth almost my price on account
Of his wonderful renius.
"Wen."'1 answered, "Joe lyman does

My highbr,w friend would stand for
NO leveling un in the eethetic world. Kip
ling and Michael Angelo were peerless,
but as soon as we descended into what
he regarded as the lower world of bust
ness, his pipe dreaming political economy
war a matter of leveling up. forgetting
that the creative ability which brings
forth its Noses in marble is bu. another
form Of that ability which brings forth
our modera industries. That same touch
of genius which makes for the vast in
equalities In the realm OF art makes no
less for inequalities in industry.
