DARTS PLUCKED FROM A PHILOSOPHER'S TARGET.
A face, if not a fortune, may be a protection.
Even beauty comes second to perseverance.
Shakespear wasn't so dumb when he said, "Be not too tame, neither."
It is true that the University is an institution for learning-, but there
r uiucreni aenmtions ol "learning-."
The only difference between conversation and a "line" is that the
"line" Is more useful.

A MINOR POET.
For years the salons of Lincoln talked about why she had not been
more successful as a poet. In her undergraduate davs she had been the
marvel of her generation of students. She had won dozens of poetry prizes.
I he campus intelligentzia said there was no rising youngster like her. Give
her the subject and the rhyme scheme, so gossip ran, and verses would be
forthcoming within the hour. She wrote sonnets, both Petrarchan and
Shakespearean, to amuse herself during periods of ennui.
Her detractors said she conversed only about poets and technic. Per
haps so; but it could not be denied that she had mastered all the difficult
manners. She wrote of the True, the Beautiful, and the Good, threnodies
on Death, odes on Life, Sapphic stanzas on Love, lyrics of the Adventure of
Thought. Her muse touched everything but herself. . . . Engrossed
in her art and the perfecting of her poetical technic, she didn't take time
to fall in love.

THE TECHNIC OF CHIVALRY.
Dear Theodosia:
I was pained to note that you think that chivalry is dead
among the modern men. I fear there is something wrong with
your technic.
My method is quite simple, and guaranteed to bring results.
When you board a crowded Toonerville, select a promising-looking
man and favor him with a hopeful smile. If he does not re
spond, look as disappointed as possible, and lean wearily on the
back of an adjacent seat. If possible, remark audibly to a fem
inine acquaintance (also standing), "Isn't it terrible to have to
stand up all the way out?" This never fails.
If you are walking with a young man who fails to carry your
books for you (very few of my acquaintances are remiss in this
respect, but it sometimes happens), simply shift the load from
your right arm to your left and sigh deeply. This almost always
works. If it does not, observe that you guess you'll try to warm up
the other hand for a change. Then remark that you wonder if the
Regents' Bookstore charges by the ton. In case stronger measures
are required, say you wish you didn't have so many books to carry.
Embellish this theme, making it as strong as you like. If this fails,
he's hopeless; give him up.
I respectfully submit this plan, hoping that it will bring you
the satisfactory results that it has always brought me in the past.
Sincerely yours,
CELIA.
P. S. In the case of the man who persists in walking on the
wrong side of the sidewalk, overlook it. It is annoying, I know,
but if the poor dears pride themselves on being original, why not
humor them?
P. S. 2. If he is your brother, buy him the WhatVWrong-In-This-Picture
book for Christmas.
EIGHT LINES ON FLOPPIGALLOSHES.
Her cheeks all tinted with the rose,
. Like a fairy's beneath the sun of Ind,
The campus queen, unfairylike,
Draws her galoshes through the wind.
Her boyish locks, her smile so sweet,
Belie the movements of her feet;
For thus two rajah's elephants go,
Their wide ears flopping to and fro.
DON JUAN.

CONSOLATION FOR PHI BETA KAPPAS.
For those who bewail the masculine element's lack of interest in intel
lectual femininity, this explanation may prove soothing:
It is impossible for anyone to cultivate an intense appreciation or in
telligent evaluation of that which he does not possess.
THEODOSIA.

OUR OWN BARON MUNCHAUSEN.
With the recent cold spell of weather, we have been insisting that this
is no fit climate for human beings. Our protests called forth the following
from our Canadian friend (need we say whom?):
"If you think this is winter, Claire, and groan now, what will you do
when it gets really cold? Up in Saskatchewan we think it is summer, and
go swimming, when the thermometer climbs to zero. It is so cold there all
the year round that water sometimes forgets itself and boils at thirty-two
degrees.
"I remember particularly one cold day wnen a ireignt train went
through our town. It was in the dead of winter and the engine was puffing
as hard as possible, as the wheels kept freezing to the rails. In its labor, the
eneine blew great clouds of live steam from the aide valves into tne air.
. . ... . . i .
Live steam, as of course you know, is so not mat it wouia compieiiy uim
man in five minutes. But it was so cold that day, that the hot steam froze
in pellets like hail the moment it left the valves, and covered the whole
town with a layer of ice-balls, like hail, about an inch thick.

A we ro to nress. the editor looks over our shoulder at the proof, reads
the above, and, with his logical mind, grasps the fact that after all, the story
has a rather frosty ring about it. After due cogitation, he says, "But, my
dear chap, that can't be so, you know."
The editor is a genius.

Acre. Days of suffering and anxiety
followed, but health and strength re
turned, and we came down to our
work together on the twelfth of June.
"Harriet has her work of teach
ing drawing, and physiology two
mornings a week at Capron Hall now,
and her supervision of the four Hindu
Girls' Schools, and the East Gate
School. Then every Saturday after
noon the Ladies' Aid meets with her
on our verandah for a sewing hour or
a prayer meeting. Sunday afternoon
finds her at the Sunday School, not
only teaching a class, but doing her
best as superintendent to improve
methods. In addition, she finds
many demands for her artistic abili
ty; she has just finished a sketch for
a back drop to be made for the open j
air theater in Pasumalai, where Bibli
cal dramas are often enacted by the
students. During the winter and
spring she gave a good deal of time
to preparing many of the drawings
and illustrations for the Illustrated
Report of the work of the mission.
"In closing, we wish we could real
ly tell you all how much we appreci
ate the many tokens of your love and
sympathy you have sent us. . . .
So few of them have been acknowl
edged, that we are often ashamed.
We trust that you know that the rea
son we have been tardy or failing in
the acknowledgement of these, ia be
cause our time is so occupied in pass
ing on some of that love to those who
have less."
