"Smacking1 his lips." "Sure, he'd just been smacking mlno, ma'ntn!" Yonkora Statesman. A Woman's Letter. Women, It Is generally admitted, write bettor letters than men. M. Marcel Provost has discovered tho reason for this superiority. "Tho jDbvloua meaning Is nover the one wo should read Into a woman's letter. There Is always a veiled meaning. Woman makes use of a letter. Just as sho employs a glanco or a urallo, In a way that Is carefully thought out, and with an eyo to offect. And. after all, her head? Does a woman's parasol keep off the sun? Why, then, should 1 woman's letter servo to convey her real thoughts to tho person ad S ressefl, just like the letters of somo honest grocer, who writes, 'I send you jflve pounds of coffeo,' because ho really docs Bend you flvo pounds of coffee." HONEST CONFES8ION A Doctor's Talk on Food. Thero aro no fairer set ot men on earth than tho doctors, and when they find they havo been In orror thoy are usually apt to mako honest and manly admission of tho fact A caso In point is that of a practi tioner, one of the good old school, who lives In Texas. His plain, unvarnished tale needs no dressing up: "I had always had an intense preju dice, which I can now seo was unwar rantable and unreasonable, against all muchly advortlscd foods. Honco, I never read a line of tho many 'ads' of Prape-Nuts, nor tested tho food till last winter. "Whllo in Corpus Christ! for my health, and visiting my youngest son, who has four of tho ruddlost, healthi est littlo boys I ever saw, I ate my first dish of Grape-Nuts food for sup per with my little grandsons. "I became exceedingly fond of it and have oaten a package of It every week since, and find it a delicious, re freshing and strengthening food, leav ing no ill effects whatever, causing no eructations (with which I was for merly much troubled), no sense of fullness, nausea, nor distress of stom ach in any way. "There is no other food that agrees with me so well, or sits as lightly or pleasantly upon my stomach as this 'does. "I am stronger and more active iilnce I began the use of Grape-Nuts than I have been for 10 years, and am no longer troubled with nausea and Indigestion."

Thar wr areaalaa, true, aad Call at fcaaaaM la tarsal. Mrs. MILITARY RUSSIA has awaked to tho lmportauco of aeronautics In modern warfaro and has Just had built, in Augsburg, Germany, tho smallest of dirlglbloi for uso In ecoullng. It can bo taken npart and packed In small compass and can bo made ready for flight in a fow moments. There Is no car, tho crow having a seat near tho 28-horse-power motor. Tho capacity of tho gis bag Is 80 cubic meters. This airship was Invented and built by Wlll ard ForsBman, a Swedish engineer. MUST CALL Unless Willing to Havo Manners Branded as Passe. Familiarity of Past on Slight Ac quaintance Must Cease Unless One Wishes to Advertise As Being Out of Swim. Chicago, If you call her Mary or Minnie or Olgn roferrlng to tho young woman who puts your ineals beforo you and kocps your home In order -It Is tlmo to etoo. Horeafter it Is to bo Miss Jones or Mil's O'Brien or MIbs Olson that is, unless you are willing to havo your mannors brandod as hopelessly passo, not to Bay do trop. Tho familiarity of tho past on flvo minutes' acquaint ance, or no acquaintance, must ceaso unless you wish to advertise that you are totally out of tho owlra. Sur names alone aro to be used In order ing tho affairs of tho household Jn tho future, and you might as well be gin rehearsing now. For fashion has so ordorcd, and, al though "thoro was tho usual storm of protest, ridlculo and revolt among tho housewives of Chicago as tho decree circulated, it is probable they will got Into lino as they always do. Furthermore, tho discussion devel oped tho tact that the wholo servant problom and tho attitude mistress should have toward maid is bound up In the question. Strong advocates wore found for a completo chango In methods of administering tho Amer ican household, which shall include abolition of tho cub torn of having ser vants llvo on tho premises, nnd tho usual attitude toward sorvants In America was declared totally undomo crntlc. "Call Minnie by her last nnmo? Lot's see what It Is. O, yos, Morlarty. Just to show you how ridiculous it all Vi I wl Just try It," said a South side clulmorann who lives In the Uni versity o) Chicago neighborhood. Sho was selected" because Miss Sophonls ba Breckinridge, Instructor In house hold administration at tho university, had said, in dlBcusslng tho matter, that tio young women who do tho household work of that neighborhood aro queens among women who earn tholr own living nnd tho titular mls treahoa of tho homes aro meok and submissive beforo them. "Miss Morlarty, oh Miss Morlarty," called tho South s.ldo woman, and after an appreciable interval a bluo eyed daughter of Ireland put her head through tho door and asked in n puz zled voice: "Wero you a-callln' of mo, mum?" "Minnie I moan MJss Morlarty would you rather bo called by your first or your last nnmel" i "It . sounds sort ot funny to havo you call mo that way after sayln' 'Minnio' so long," said tho girl. "There'ro somo people, though, that fresh grocery boy and then tho peo ple you havo hero, and your husband, too, mum. I'd rather have them call mo by my last name." "I have always called my house keeper by her last namo, so if that is the requirement I am strictly up to date," said Mrs. Raymond Robins, 'who conducted the investigations rfor tho New York Association for Houso .hold Research, and whoso roport on tho employment of domestic servants was used as a basis for legislation In that state. " "It Is because the attitude toward household employes has been so en tirely undemocratic that it has been 'next to Impossible to get a girl of competence and spirit to go into do mestic service. I know many girls who have refused good wages and many material comforts to work des perately bard at poor wages in a shop because they wanted a borne and the Sundays and evenings and Satur day afternoons for themselves, which BALLOON" fiUILT -FOR HER MISS they novor havo In domestic sorvlce." "Tho attitude toward domestic serv ants that now prevails Is Blmply In tolerable" BEEF SECURED FROM MEXICO Shipments Aro Now Coming Out of Chihuahua to tho United States In Great Quantities.

According to tho rules of Inspection, when a herd has onco been turned back at tho bordor, or has been con demned at tho ranch, no moro cattlo will bo accepted for export from that ranch for a period of six months, aft er this tlmo another Inspection may bo had; if tho cattlo pass inspection tho shipping may bo renewed. Tho constant decrcaso In tho cattlo ranges of Texas has given a great boom to that industry In this country, and thoro nra-numorous cattlo ranches moving ovor tho border nnd locating in Mexico, whore sufficient range land may still-Be obtained. PARROT A DIPLOMATIC BIRD Feathered Pet of Belgian Crown Prince With American Minister In Three Capitals. Brussels.

A regi mental band hired by tho burgomaster to wolcomo tho African huntor was playing in front of the legation, and the parrot whose musical instincts were suddenly awakened, Insisted upon competing with tho band, o tho delight of tho waiting crowd in the streot. The competition soon grew so fierce tbat the bird was relegated to a so eluded spot in tho attic before Colonol Roosevelt's arrival, but it figured prominently in all tho papers the next day as among the nobilities present at the reception. The bird's fame spread rapidly and reached Prince Leopold's ears. When MJnUtar Bryan heard of the young RUSSIA BEAUTY IN LOCUSTS' WINGS Rare Relic of Seventeen Year Pest Owned by Pennsylvania Man Is Quite Artistic Bothlohem, Pn. James O.

Ho took a yonr to do this, and in tho construction of tho wreath used many thousands of locusts. Tho wreath itself is composed en tirely ot locuots' wings, arranged in flower-and-loat fashion. Tho star's contor la also composed of locusts' wings, whllo tho six points ,nro made Of wholo locusts. Tho background of tho star is inado of loaves of locust wings. Tho wreath and star stand two. feet high by threo feot wldo, and this ploco is but one of tho many novel ties mndo during his llfotlmo by Mr. Klchllno, who is seventy-four years old.
