The Sequel to a Challenge to a Duel In a Berlin Cafe. “Sir!" “Well?” "You have been staring at me!” “Not that 1 am aware of.” The young gentleman, evidently a student, was about to retire with an apology when the person addressed— a banker—thought proper to add: “You are altogether too Insignificant an individual for tne to stare at you.” “Sir, that is an Insult! I shall chal lenge you. Here is my card.” After a moment’s hesitation the banker also gave up his card. The cards were inscribed as follows: “Count Botho von Felsing, student of philosophy." “Ernst Grunschild, banker.” The scene occurred in a Berlin cafe, and the count ut once took his de parture. After his excitement had somewhat abated and he had had time to collect his thoughts Herr Grun schild also left. Fearing lest his better half might suspect something from his looks, he went straight to his place of business and began to write letters to his friends containing the customary last farewell greetings in case he should fnll a prey to a "vindictive and quarrelsome opponent” It was 7 p. m„ and the cashier called, as usual, to pre sent his report Grunschild ran his eye listlessly over the balance sheet Suddenly he gave a start “A thousand marks drawn for pri vate use! What does this mean? Come: this Is above a Joke!” “Have you forgotten, Herr Grun schild? You were playing at the cafe, you know, and lost a thousand marks, and as you hadn’t that amount on you Count von Felsing was good enough to call for the money on his way. He showed me your visiting card in proof of his statement” Grunschild hardly knew whether he should go into a fit with vexation or whether he should shout for Joy. He had been done out of a thousand marks, but at the same time it was “off” with the duel. When he after ward learned that the Imaginary stu dent was a professional swindler he was thankful to have got off so cheap ly. FLAG ETIQUETTE, Displaying the National Ensign at Half Mast. There have been many mistakes made about tbe etiquette of tbe Sag. When President William McKinley was assassinated thousands of loyal Americans raised Sags at half mast over their places of business and let them fly by night and by day until they wore out. They undoubtedly thought they were showing respect to McKinley’s memory. But they were not showing proper respect to the Sag. The United States government display ed at mat time its Sags at half mas: from sunrise to sunset from the presi dent’s death until his burial Tbe gov ernment regulations provide that on the death of a president in office Its Sag shall be displayed at half mast only one day. In memory of the 330000 Unices sol diers wbo lost their lives daring tie civil war May 30. Memorial day. each year tbe United States displays its tig at half mast at all army posts, stations and national cemeteries from sunrise to midday. Immediately before noon a dirge is played by the band or fie&d music, and tbe national salute of rweo ty-one guns is tired. At the conclu sion of this memorial tribute at noon the flag is hoisted to the top of the staff and remains there until sunset The Idea is that the national ensign is too sacred an object to be locg In mourning for any man or number of men. no matter how exalted their rank. The flag reversed, with tbe union down. Indicates distress. Tbe flaz on anything but a fort actually besieged should never be displayed between sunset and sunrise. When the flag is to be displayed at half mast It Is lowered to that posi tion from the top of tbe staff. It is hoisted to the top before it is Anally lowered.—Washington Post. She Sent It Back. There has always been a lot of give and take In American women’s social adventures In England. But American women have spirit, and if they have taken a good deal they bare given back still more.

WHAT TO DO WHEN REJECTED Always Try to Parry tha Blow With a Ready Reply, Because Staring In Re proachful Silence Gives the Lady a Chance to Change Her Mind. Incredible as It may seem, proposals of marriage are sometimes refused, usually because the lady thinks she knows better. To comport one's self fittingly when rejected is no easy matter. The young beginner is advised to give some thought to bis next move In the event of bis proposal being declined. To stand staring In reproachful silence displays a lack of savior faire and Incidentally gives the lady a chance to change her mind. The really nice young man when re jected inclines to gloom. The average young man takes up an attitude of sprigbtllness. To display relief when rejected may not seem in the best taste, but If a girl has refused you that is sufficient evidence that she has no taste at all. Let us consider the method of the really nice young man. He hints at a broken heart—a picturesque but Im probable happening. He asks If there is no hope. Always be speaks in “low tone.” There is the authority of the best fiction for this. Apparently be never shouts his query from the door steps a3 he Is departing. He men tions suicide in a noncommital way and eventually takes his leave “with one last fond, lingering look at her.” Oue c*n only hope he does not spoil the dramatic value of his exit by trip ping over the doormat. So much for the really nice young man. The average young man has a variety of methods for keeping his end up In ihe event of being rejected. Ha Imparts an air of levity to the proceed ings which must be distinctly irritating wbeu one is expecting time honored references to fractured hearts and blighted hopes. Copying the average young man, you may therefore when rejected laugb heartily and then remark: “Well, but, joking apart, isn't the weather beautiful?” There is something about this formu la which prevents the waste of any emotion except annoyance. Another gambit in taking refusals is to smile with satisfaction and say the simple words: "I win." While the damsel is puzzling oat whst the words may mean you can ef fect your escape. In the event of an emphatic refusal you can always ask smilingly: "How did you guess I was jollying?” A: effective way to prevent a lady promising to be a sister to yon is to get Ltiere first by promising to be a son to bet. and you can f&Uow It up by saying: “Oh. veil. I must be getting along. I've got another call to make” There is a subtlety about this remark which enables you to take your leave quite easily. i Always try. however, to be ready to say something at once, if after ber "No" you think you have been silent ; overlong, assume a puzzled look aDd say: "Let me see—what were we talking about?” Should the girl give reasons for re fusing you remark: “Yes. that's just what Jane Jones said last month when I proposed to bet." It may happen that the lady answers your proposal thus: “No. Harold. I can never be yours | l am affianced to another." The best thing to do to avoid ex | po*ure of your disappointment Is to ex • lalm: "Yes. 1 knew that when I asked you/" Another formula when rejected lies in taking a list of names from your pocket, consulting it and remarking: “You’re Miss Susan Smith, aren't your Then you put a tick against the came, sigh rellevedly and take your leave. If you have come primed to say "Thank you. Harriet: you have made tae the happiest man in all the world." In answer to her acceptance there Is no reason why you shouldn't say It Id reply to ber refusal. la the event of receiving a refusal by letter pretend that you did not get It. This has a disquieting effect Or if you want to get even wait till she questions you about it and then say with every symptoa of g'.ad relief: “Ob. that letter was from you. was It? I couldn't quite make out the sig nature, and I thought it was from some one else on a similar matter." A sportive remark is permissible sometimes when one is refused with lofty contempt: “That’s ail right old girt Truth is I only asked you because I was feeling a bit sorry for you." The main point Is to he ready witted enough to keep your hat and stick !c your hand. Do not leave the house whistling, though. It prevents you £rom exhibiting an amused smile when ■he peeps at you from behind the front room curtains. With lock and practice you will be to take a refusal of marriage quite well Doct propose merely for pnctica, however. lour lock may not *^TTit| rgiUgfljrriitiTi ... , .. — it .iA,.—„i>M irT Dr. E. T.
