Tho Corner of a. Heart.
Py Roy Farrell Greene.
One corner of her girlish heart aha yielded
first to me,
And halted there, because the rest- was
occupied, jrou pre,
By tenant who wore kin to her, and
who, a you'll divine,
Through having dwelt there many yean
had stronger rliilma than mine.
As alight pwii'ifkIi" 'Hi as thla moat
proud waa I to Win,
And with aitiTiInn .-.cly packed, I man
aged to move In;
Yet aoon t found the quarters cramped,
and with a wooer's art
I coaxt-d an added portion to that corner
of her heart.
I quite forget which: one It waa my spread
of love displaced
If Cousin John's or I'ncle Will's heart-
lodglnga were effaced
By thla designing move of mine. But
aomeone, It la plain.
Lost out while I waa winning the expan
sion of domain.
And yet. the cornpr thus enlarged had
held me but a day
When, 'Someone's got to move!" 1
vowed, "wore In each other's way!
Of tenants here you might transfer to
Memory a part!
I'll have to have more room than Just one
corner of your heart!"
The transfer was arranged, and oh, the
ripple of her laugh.
When she avowed, "Tour corner's grown
till now much more' than half
My heart you're occupying, dear. Tou
well know what that means
That all the other tenants, now, are
' crowded like sardines!"
"Well, more of them will have to move!"
with candor I avowed,
"While those whom you select to stay
must still morn closely crowd!"
And move they did (clear out at last),
which shows the greedy part
A man will play If he a allowed one cor
ner In a heart!

TRACED BY, SLENDER CLUES
i
Criminals Ron Down by Keen Detec
tives Seisins; on . Trivial
Incidents.
The eye of the law is remarkably keen
nowadays. A few weeks bock a man
found himself In the dock mainly through
a cobweb. A detective had been attracted
to pay him peculiar attention by the fact
that, fashionably attired, he was walking
down the street with a mass of cobwebs o.n
the elbow of his frock coat.
The news received later that a robbery
had been effected at a wine merchant's
office In the neighborhood suggested the
question whether there were In. the cellars,
where the thief might have concealed him
self, cobwebs of the same description.
There w?re. and the Immaculately
dressed man will in future probably take
a clothes brush with him when engaged
In like pursuits. He will not need one,
however, for over two years.
"It la the little thing that catches the
criminal." declared M. Mace, the great
head of the Paris police. He caught a
criminal named Avenet by a scent the
offender used.
The crime was a terrible one the mur
der of a woman for her jewels and certain
bonds In her possession. The woman waa
discovered lying upon the floor of her
room dead. She had been strangled. No
one had been seen going In or departing
from her rooms. There appeared no clue.
A handkerchief a woman's was on the
floor bealde her. It was at once assumed
that the handkerchief was madam's and
that It had fallen from her hand. But it
was scented and no one had ever known
madam to use that peculiar scent.
Mace came to the conclusion that ft be
longed to the murderer, and that the
assassin was a man of effeminate and
dandyish habits. Within four days Mace
had found his mart. It was the scent that
led to hla head fulling ly to M. Deibler'a
basket.
The mystery surrounding the death of
great continental banker waa cleared
by meana of a cigar holder found in the
room with the body. No one could Identify
the holder. No one had ever seen the
banker uaing it. But In the holder was
a small piece of ujiconaumed cigar end.
Experts pronounced It a cigar of the
finest quality one which only a person of
wealth could afford to purchase. Thla evi
dence appeared to confirm the notion that
the cigar holder had belonged to the dead
plutocrat. He had cigars In tha house, too,
of the same brand.
One of the detectives, however, engaged
In the case waa not aatlatled. The cigar
holder was peculiarly worn In two places.
Ita owner had evidently been accustomed
to bite It hard. Two teeth had almost bit
ten It through. The detective Inaerted the
holder in the mouth of the dead man, but
It would not fit theae hollows.
The holder had evidently belonged to
the murderer. He waa discovered at lusl
In tha person of the banker's cook, whose
teeth corresponded to the worn places. H
had been accustomed to help liimaelf to
his master's choke cigars. Stray Btoriea.

1MAT CLUB WOMEN ARE DOING
Reception for Mrs. Decker Monday
Night Conspicuous Clnb Event.
LOCAL CLUB MEMBERS INVITED
Second District Vie President Will
Korean O Hirers' Lnnrkrna Mon
day Art as Hostess '
Visiting Women.
The reception to bo held in the parWs
of the First Congregational church Mon
day evening by the Omaha Women's Club,
In honor of Mrs. Sarah Piatt Decker, presi
dent of the General Federation, promises
to be the conspicuous club event of the
year. In anticipation of Mrs. Decker's com
ing the annual New Year's reception was
postponed and will be held at thla time in
stead. All members of the women's clubs
of Omaha, with their husbands or escorts
are Included In the invitation and It is ex
pected that the attendance will be large.
It has been several years since Mrs.
Decker visited Omaha and this privilege of
meeting her has been much anticipated by
the club women.
Vlaltlnat Women Provided For.
' Mrs. Edward Johnson, vice-president Of
the Second Dlstrkt federation, is making
arrangements whereby visiting club women
at the district convention, to be held in
conjunction with the conference of Chari
ties and Corrections Sunday, Monday and
Tuesday, may have luncheon together Mon
day noon. Delegations are expected from
Blair, Springfield, Waterloo, Valley and
Papllllon and frdm Council Bluffs. On
other occasions when the district conven
tion has been held in Omaha luncheon has
been arranged for at a nominal cost to the
visiting women, usually in the first Con
gregational church where the meetings
have been held. Thla year owing to the
many other demands, thla arrangement
could not be made. The announcement at
the luncheon Monday noon for Mrs. Docker
at the Rome hotel In which only the state,
district and local club presidents and the
presidents of Council Bluffs clubs are In
cluded, left the other visiting women In a
somewhat embarrassing position, but Mrs.
Johnson haa graciously resigned her place
at the officers' luncheon to act as hostess
to the other visiting women.
Mrs. Johnson will also be at home In
formally Sunday afternoon following the
mass meeting that opens tho conference of
Charities and Corrections, at her home, 3230

THE GRIP JS CONTAGIOUS
Precautionary Measures 1'raed by
Philadelphia Board of
Health.
Are you aware that a person who min
gles with friends and business associates
while suffering from "la grippe" causes
the spread of the malady among them?
It seems that because influenza, with all
the annoyance and Illness that it begets,
does not carry a high death rate, peoplo
are Inclined to think that It is not danger
ous and few appear to realize that it is
transmissible.
But It Is communicable, just as much
so as consumption or pneumonia, and when
a man or woman who Is suffering with It
goes through the streets he cannot fail to
emit the germs. So, when another person
comes along whose respiratory organs ais
In a condition Inviting the propogatlon of
the influenza bacilli, he or she naturally
is Infected with the disease.
"Yes, Influenza Is transmissible," said
Dr. Abbott, chief of 'the Philadelphia bu
reau of health, In discussing the prevalence
of the disease, "and there Is no doubt that
it is spread by those who have It.
"But It is pretty difficult to make people
understand that the should stay at home
and adopt precautions for the safety of
others when they have the malady. While
It Is a disease which causes great suffer
ing, the fact that It does not generally
cause death tends to make the people care
less. "When you tell them to remain at home
and cure themselves they will undoubtedly
recognize that such a course would be
right and proper, but It Is doubtful whether
anyone would pay any attention to the
advice.
"Tills same'dlsregard la noticeable In the
case of pneumonia. Although It Is not
generally known, pneumonia stands next
to consumption In the number of deaths It

"It Is no uncommon thing for sufferers
from Incipient to pneumonia to walk the

there are cases of a light character where

to keep moving about and the doctors

Many chic costumes In white wool, white
linen, etc, suitable for warm weather wear
have been Included In Princess Marie's
outfit, though this $3TO.00O trousseau will
doubtless be supplemented lavishly when
spring and summer modes are safely estab
lished. We have seen, too, some extremely
smart costumes of white serge, white cloth
white voile, white linen. Rajah, Shanghai,
etc.. In our own New York shops and work
rooms.
One Importer shows three new Riviera
models In tuasor to those among his patrons
who are going south, and It seems probable
that this material will be more popular
than eper during the coming season. A
costume made by Bernard for a Riviera
outfit and shown among the cuts Is In
tuasor and embodies many of the latest
fashion notions. The skirt clings closely
and Is absolutely plain.
The coat has the very pronounced cut
away lines with which the winter modes
have familiarized us, but Is shorter than
the usual model and meets only at one
point on the biiBt, whefe It Is held by big
brandebourgs matching1' the tuasor. The
sleeves reach only a little below the elbow
OF TUSSOR.
but are almost close fitting, a fashion straw
which one finds repeated again and again
among the latest and most exclusive models
and which. In the midst of a whirl of
Japanese draperies, plainly shows which
way the current Is flowing.
The short waistcoat of the costume is
of tolle de Jouy and it seems certain that
we shall see the same rage for these antique
printed cotton and. cretonne effects which
possessed Paris last summer. Paris will
have the fashion, . too, but It was ex
clusive there last summer. It will be pop
ular this summer and there la a wide dif
ference between the two situations.
Anticipating the continuation of the
mode, manufacturers have had their de
signers searching art and studying the
rare and beautiful old printed cottons
preserved In museums and as heirlooms,
and as a result there are many remarkably
good cretonne pattern materials In the
market not only among cottons, but even
among silks.
VETERAN HUNTER IS A WONDER
Has Killed More Than Two Hnnared
Bears and Holds Hecprd
la Maine.
Oreenleaf DavlB, "the Hermit of Shin
Pond," haa killed more than 200 bears.
Davis has held the record for having killed
the moat bears of any man In Maine for
more than twenty years, and though he is
now past 80 and lame and bent from rheu
matism, no season passes without adding
from one to five bears to his tally.
"When I was young," says he, "fat bears
were almost as thick along the old-growth
beeches on the slopes of Mount Katahdln
as red squirrels are today. In the fall,
after the early frosts loosened (the beech
nuts, I could go out with an old smooth
bore gun and shoot two or three most any
day.
"Every fall father used to call us boys
and make up a bear hunt to get fresh
bear's meat for roasting' pieces all winter.
Sometimes the hunt lasted a week anl
sometimes longer, but we never quit until
we had put by the carcassea of from six
to ten fat bears.
"In the days when 'Tippecanoe' ran for
president there was no railroad track
within 100 miles of where we lived, and If
anyone had told us about Chicago dressed
beef coming through to Maine In refrigera
tor cars we should have locked him up as
craxy.
"The hindquarter of a fat bear which had
fed on beechnuts, when hung on a spit,
roasted befoie a hardwood fire and basted
In its own fat until it was all shiny brown,
made eating that wua good enough for tho
minister or the first selectman. The kid
ney f4t of the bears, which was soft and
oily like lard, was used for frying dough
nuts and for bread shortening, while the
harder belly fat waa run Into candlea. I
have eaten hundreds of brown doughnuts
that were fried In bears' grease. Thai
grease today I could aell to the druggists
for Ji a quart.
"Aa for the bearskins which we took off,
they were rubbed on the fleshy aide with
and coverings, for beds and aa robes when
powdered alum and salt, and uaed for rugs
taking long rldea In cold weather. Nobody
placed any value on the pelt of a bear then,
for It waa the meat we were after, and aa
the akin had to come off before we could
ret at tha flesh and fat, we considered the
hairy covering as a aert of by-product. One
could buy all the bear pelta he wanted
sixty or seventy yeara ago for 11 to 11.25
each, and now those same pelts would brinn
t-0 apiece.
"Here Is a wipe," pointing to a long,
white mark across his cheek, "that an an
gry mother bear gave me when I had
caught one of her cubs, but It waa ull my
fault. Mother bears are not professional
humoriats whe'n they are defending their
young.
"When I went after beura In my youtji
I contrived to keep Alexander the Great,
my old gun, to the front most or the time,
and now I have bought 'Napoleon Bona
parte,' my new double-barreled ahotgun.

BISHOP FALLOWS HEALS SICK
Ills "Christian Pnyrholoary" Combines
Mental "nwsreatlon with Art
of Physician. .
Staid orthodox circles in the fnlted States
were not a little astounded by the an
nouncement that Bishop Samuel fallows
of the Reformed Episcopal church had be
come a rival of Mrs. Mary Baker Qlover
Eddy and set himself up as a "mental
healer" of disease.
Bishop Fallows, however, differs from
all other advocates of "mental healing,"
"faith cures" and the like. He does not
scorn the aid of the regular physician. In
fact, he insists that all his patients bring
a physician's diagnosis with them, and In
all his "treatments" he proposes to have a
physician of the recognized school present.
Neither does he call his new cult Chris
tian Science. He designates It as "Chris,
tlan psychology." He does claim, however,
that "Christian psychology will cure any
thing that Is curable by Christian Science
methods, which ar, he believes, simply
cures by faith on the part of the patient
that they will be healed. He declares that
Uils faith cure is practiced by all physi
cians, and he believes It should be prac
ticed In its highest form by all earnest
Christians.
."This is not a vnew or sudden fancy of
mine," said the bishop, with a whimsical
smile. "For twelve years I have been
lecturing on physiological psychology at
the Bennet Epileptic college. For the last
three years I have been making a special
study of the relations between mentality
and disease.
"I have arrived at the conclusion that
mentality when based upon a trust In
religion. Is a powerful aid toward the cure
of all functional nervous disorders.
"I do not go so far as to say that all
diseases may be cured by mental sugges
tion. Organic diseases like cancer and
typhoid fever demand the services of a
skilled physician. But In every disease the
mental attitude of the patient hsis much
to do with his condition, and In all those
affections of the hi Ind which might be
classified as functional nervous disorders
the mental attitude of the patient is the
greatest single Influence."
The bishop then outlined a few of the
diseases which he believed he could cure
by Christian psychology. He Included In
his list the following:
Hypochondria.
Sleeplessness.
Nervous dyxpepsia.
Melancholia.
Hvsteria.
Neurasthenia.
Drug habits.
Want of self-confidence, in liability,
worry, anger, fear and weakness of will.
"The cure of the grip, I believe," aald
the bishop, "can be aided greatly, and per
haps entirely effected, by the direct In
fluence of what I may call strengthened
mentality. One of the chief factors In the
potency of grip Is the mental depression
Into which It forces Its victims."
It waa laat Sunday evening that Bishop
Fallows In his sermon announced his pur-'
pose to put his belief into practice.
But so greut was the confidence In the
bishop that the sick and suffering did not

wait for the first Thursday s meeting to
receive treatment.
On Tuesday afternoon the bishop treated
his first patient. A Janitor named C. P. J.
Esnorff could not wait until Thursday
fcfternoon and sought the bishop In the
vestry rooms of the church. He was suf
fering from a disease of the eyes and wa
anxious for relief. He told the bishop that,
medicine had failed to afford him any help.
Esnorff eat down and listened while th
bishop told him that he had two minds
the conscious and the subconiclous and
how they contained the force that was to
drive the sickness out of his eyes.
He then Instructed Esnorff and let hllir
go. The patient went away, declaring he
felt 100 per cent better that the blKhops
talk had effected a wonderful Improvement.
