Excellent Idea Is
Umbrella Exchange"

Brussels appears to be the only city
which has a well-organized umbrella
borrowing bureau. The annual sub
scription Is low, but If every umbrella
user were to join such a society, its
Income would be enormous.
The idea is rather similar to that
in force at the. British museum, Ma
tional gallery and other public insti-
tutions, where you are required to de-
poslt your "gamp" before being al
lowed to go round the galleries. You
get ticket Of metal, or bone disk,
which will redeem your umbrella at
any time; only, In the case Of the UNI
brella exchange, the umbrella is not
your own, but the property of the So
clety.
Each member, on paying his sub
scrlptiOn, receives a token, usually of
metal stamped with an index number,
which he carries in his pocket instead
Of an umbrella in his hand When
caught by the rain, all he has to do
is to go to one Of the sOciety's agen-
cies, which are tobacco shops, restaur-
ants and big stores, and hand over the
token, to be Immediately provided
with an umbrella.
When the rain ceases the borrower
deposits his umbrella in the next
agency he happens to pass, and in
exchange receives another counter.

Glass Houses May Be
Residences of Future

Plans for building houses of glass
are being considered by glass experts.
Opaque glass can be produced in great
quantities, it is claimed, at a reason
able cost.
1.-THE glass house." says a writer in
a trade journal, has been the butt of
many jokes, when not actually used a,
target for brickbats. 1t has carried
with 1t, too, the idea that everything
within its walls was open TO public
inspection, and that the occupants
must go to bed with their clothes on
to avoid embarrassment
1.-THE material for the proposed glass
house can be made in slabs one-eightli
Of an inch thick, thirty inches wide,
and nine feet long. These slabs Of
Opaque glass can be made in any
shade or color the builder wants"
The writer says that glass houses
must be constructed on a concrete
foundation and a wood framework.
There will be an air-pocket between
the outside and the inside walls which
will keep out both heat and cold. 1t is
claimed that the first cost of the house
would also prove to be practically the
last, as the need for repairs would be
almost nonexistent.

Traditions Tell of
Many Sunken Cities

Traditions of sunken cities are al
ways interesting. Both Killarney and
Tough Neagh are reputed to have
once been the sites Of famous Irish
cities, drowned as punishment for
the wickedness Of their inhabitants.
Holland boasts of several ruined towns
sunk at the bottom of the Zuyder zee,
while off the cost Of Hplstein lies bur
led the legendary city Of Vineta,
whence ESQ fishermen sayL the tolling
of the bells in the church spires comes
up family through the waters on quiet
days. Most famous Of all Is Us, said
to have stood where now is the Bay
Of Douarnency, little west of Quinn
per, in Brittany VS. vas a magnifl-
cent city, built below the level Of the
sea, and It owed it's destruction to a
certain wicked princess named Dabut,
who, to crafty an idle within, opened
the sluice-gates and herself persisted
in the ruin which she brought upon
the city.

Bark "WrappinR PAPER"

The Chopl T1betans retain their In
dlviduality partly because they inhabit
inaccessible mountains. At their cap
ital, Choni, on the Tao river, lives the
hereditary Chinese ruler Of 4S tribes
Of this people. He can levy taxes,
quell rebelllons and administer punish
ment, but the Chinese say of him, HE
has the pigs head, but cannot find the
door Of the temple" They imply that
he is willing to give brides to keep
his position, but too many officials ex-
pect them, and he cannot tell which
deserve the largest. A recent study
Of the province includes extensive
botanical and geological observations.
One tree, known locally as the red
BIRCH" is boon to traders. 1t has a
shining, brown, papery bark, which
peels off in large, thin sheets, which
are used by Tibetans and Chinese for
wrapping butter and Aer food ar
ticles.

Boy He'd Good Idea
of Penalty of Lying

"You know where people go who tell
lIesY' said court official at Newcas-
tie, England, to a small girl In the wit
ness box recently. Yes, but l don't
believe it," was the reply.
This incident has suggested to an
English commentator an instance
where the converse of the Newcastle
episode occurred in the court of Judge
Maule few years ago: small boy
was placed in the witness box and was
asked the same question, do you
know where people go who tell liesf"
on which Maule commented: IF he
knows that it's a good deal more than
do" However, the boy did know, for
he was taken through a catalogue Of
offenses from telling lies to stealing
apples, and replied 'Hell-fire" to all Of
them. Counsel suggested that he was
not competent The judge demurred.
HE thinks that for every willful fault
he will go to hell-fre; and he is very
likely, while he believes that doctrine,
to be most strict in his observance Of
the truth. If you and l believed that
such would be the penalty for every
offense we committed, we should be
better men than we are. Swear him."

Rose Bushes That May
Be Chased as Freaks

As rule rose bushes are not classed
with yews and oaks among the long
lived and ancient, but a rose tree on
the wall of Hildeshelm cathedral,
Prussia, can be traced back with GER
tainty to the Eleventh century. Its
main trunk has thickness Of 20
inches, and the branches spread over
the wall to height of 25 feet.
The castle Of Chillon, on Lake &c
neva, in which the famous Prisoner"
of Byron's poem was interned, has a
very large rose tree of unknown age
apd in the Marine gardens at Toulon
there is one that spreads across
space of so feet by Is feet, and which
has been known to bear 10000 blooms
at the same time!
The biggest rose tree in Europe Is
In the Wehrle gardens in Friesburg,
Germany. Its stock Is wild rose on
which a "tea rose" was grated 40
years ago. Today the bush is 100
feet high.

Conversation

The wit of conversation consists
more of finding it in others than in
showing a great deal yourself He
who goes out of your company, pleased
with his own righteousness and inge-
nuity, will the sooner come into it
again. Most men had rather please
than admire you, and seek less to be
instructed and diverted than approved
and applauded, and it is certainly the
most delicate sort of pleasure to please
another. But that sort of wit which
employs Itself insolently in criticizlng
and censuring the words and senti.
ments of others In conversation, is alb
solute folly; for 1t answers none of
the ends of conversation. He who
uses II neither improves others, is i'm.

Tragedy and Comedy
in Errors bv Wire

One of the most expensive kilograms
ever sent over the wires was sent from
Washington to New York, when Wall
Street was awaiting the decision OF
the Supreme court on the taXabillry
of stock dividends. AT noon mes
sage came through that the decision
was that the tax was valid. Prices at
once began to fall. Two hours later
it was announced that the real dc
clsion was exactly the opposite to
what had first been wired, and prices
rose quickly. The mistake, however,
had cost S1,00O00O. To turn from
tragedy to comedy a cable message
was received at Sydney, New South
Wales, from Noumea, the capital of
New Caledonia, saying sailors and
soldiers routed by Caledonians." New
Caledonia Is the French convict set
Element, and such alarm was caused
by the message that a warship was
dispatched for the protection of Brit
ish subjects. When the vessel arrived
1t was found the message referred to
the victory Of the New Caledonian
football team over an eleven COM
posed of French soldiers and sailors.

Quest for Beauty

The refrain of an old folklore song
runs: ooh, its dabbling in the dew
that makes the milkmaid fair" Today
there are still a few unsophisticated
maidens who believe that to let the
rain beat on the face is to beautlfy it,
but In the olden days it was necessary
to wander in the early morning and
battle the face in May dew. Pepys
mentions this practice in his Journal
in speaking of his wife: MY wife
down with Jane and w. Hewer tc
Woolwlch In order to take a little
ayre, and to lie there tonight and s,
to gather May-dew tomorrow morning
which Mrs. Turner hath taught her Is
the only thing in the world to WASH
her face with"

Ostrich Father

AT this season on my South African
ostrich farm" said an ostrich farmer,
you Will see some male birds strut
ting proudly about with three or four
broods in addition to their own, while
other males nope wretchedly without
any broods at all.
The male ostrich, you see, is a very
fond parent. He swaggers away from
the nest in the morning to give his
young ones an airing, and when he
spies another male occupied in the
same way he puts up a fight and, II
he wins, he collars the beaten birds

ITO see one Of these proud males
In the spring of the year swelling
round with goodness knows how many
little ones is sight to bring tears
to a true fathers eyes."-Rehoboth

Bear Gs Photographed

A student of forestry was camping
with two friends In the widest part Of
Allegheny park. Taking his camera
he rambled off alone to look for pic
turesque subjects.
He had placed his camera on Q
fallen tree, and had gone some little
distance to get a viewpoint, when he
saw a black bear browsing amongst
some berry bushes. He was scared
and, forgetting his camera, sped back
to his camp and companions. With
them he returned to the spot, but. lr
the meantime. the bear had disap
peared.
The camera was still on the log, but
a plate had been exposed. When II
was developed 1t showed the frightened
young man In rapid flight down the
trail. The bear, investigating the
camera, had touched the trigger with
Its nose.

SodIer's Well

A question as to the identity Of
person named Sadler has been sug
gested by recent appeal, sponsored
by leading men, for the restoration to
the nation of the historic theater
known as Sadler's Well. Sadler lived
In the time Of the Stuarts, and was
road surveyor and property owner.
One day some workmen, while digging
for gravel on piece Of land belong
ing to him in Clerkenwell, came on an
ancient well-one of the medicinal
springs to which pligrimages were for
merly made. The site at once became
a popular resort. Sadler built round
1t a pleasure house, set in pretty
gardens and groves Of trees. He pro-
vided music and other entertainments,
and in a short time the existence Of
the waters was almost totally forgot

Excellence

Excellence may be considered an
axiom, or a proposition which becomes
self-evident just in proportion to the
clearness or precision with which 1t is
put If 1t fairly exists, in this sense,
1t requires no further calculation. To
point out too particularly the beauties
of work is to admit facility that these
beauties are not wholly admirable. Re-
garding, then, excellence as that which
is capable of decentralization, 1t but
remains for the critic to show when,
where and how It fails in becoming
manifest.-Poe.
