Katherine Wood believes in tipping

she writes d:
"You like to travel, or else you dis
like to travel. Putting out of the
question love Of. excitement, the adj
venturous spirit, . the Zest for new
scenes, all OF which enter in, the rea-
son for your taste or distaste may
really lie in your attitude toward some
of what you may have called inconse-
quential details.
do you know how to relinquish
your heavy suitcase, your hat box, your
coat and umbrella and that bulky
bundle to a red-cap?. Whether you
have chair or not, the porter will
take you the shortest and easiest way
to your train, and you'll avoid all that
craning and straining to see where
your train starts, He'll find you a
seat in a day coach and dispose Of
your parcels for you, so that you
neither have to wrench your arm out
or rely on the chivalry of chance
fellow passerby. Yes, he expects q
tip, but a quarter is little enough to
pay for having the brambles pulled

NO RECORD OF PAINE's GRAVE
What Became Of Body Of Famous
Political Writer and Freethinker
Is Mystery.

One of the completely unsolved mys-
teries of modern history is what be-
came Of the body Of Tom Paine, the
famous Anglo-American political writer
and free-thinking philosopher, who
exerted such q powerful influence
on the American public during
and subsequent to the Revolution.
Paine died in New York in 1900, and
was buried in New Rochelle. His re-
mains were later removed to England
by radical leader named William
Corbett, who hoped by that act to
further republican doctrine in the
mother country. On reaching England
Corbett left the body in the hands Of
a committee, and what eventually be-
came Of it has never been cleared III.
According to one story, the bones
were left in trunk on Corbett's farm
in England, where they had been for
warded by the committee After Cor.
belts death, when an auction was held
Of his effects. the trunk was removed
from his other possessions. and, af'
ter passing through numerous hands.
was returned to the keeping of a men,
Der of the republican, committee who
was to hold it pending a public funer-
al, which never took place. The re-
mains were thought by some to have
been taken to France, while others be-
lieved them to lie in an unmarked
grave somewhere in England.

japanese newspapers are called up
on to answer a variety Of questions
that might well stump lawyer. The
Yamato came up against the following
recently:
Last month married certain
man, but he has now divorced me.
His unreasonable excuse is that my
eyebrows are a pale color and that
I must therefore be leper. Can I
sue him for the damage he is caus-
ing to my reputation? A Subscriber"
The answer was: Eyes, you can sue
him for breaking off the marriage, as
he cannot use pale cOlored eyebrow
as cause for divorce"
More Of poser was submitted to
the wisdom Of the Yomiuri in the fol-
lowing: II am a woman Of twenty
years. L was born withra round face
and my friends make fun of it. Please
tell me some way that Gun change the
shape Of my face, for, persecution to
which I am subjected is more than l

The editor deserves credit both for

CoC0NUTs His ONLY FOOD
Austrian Exile Had Radical Views on
the Subject Of Proper SUSIE
nance for Mankind.
|. By Charles Sughsoe
o Wes,esn Newspaper Union

In the near neighborhood of New
Guinea is beautiful island called
Kabaka, which was owned by an AUS
trian named Engelhardt, exiled for
some political otfense, who died not
long ago.
Engelhardt was known as the
Apostle Of the coconut." Having &C:
quired the island by purchase many
years ago, he planted every possible
acre of it with coconut palms, the
fruit Of which lie believed to be the
only proper food for man. He sub
sisted exclusively OH coconuts, and his
only drink, except water, was coco
nut milk. But, although a crank on
this subject, he did not force his ideas
upon others. He gave admirable din
ners, at which the food was varied
and the wines excellent.
Engelhardt was man Of profound
learning, and his coconut plantation
yielded him large income. People
invited to stay at his house were lux
uriously lodged; but he himself al
ways slept on u bed Of clean sand,
which was spread freshly every day.
