out and found you there, and when you
told her you were resting because Bunny
was all hot and achy, sh was all in

Bunny' bright hair that waa all gold and
shiny when th Sua Man peeked through

Women have a bad reputation In on
respect. Bom men wouldn't give a rea
cent for their chances of coming out even
if they bad to deal with women, and among 1
these are men who manage those restaur
ants where each person helps himself.
One of them expressed himself very em
phatically th other day to a. woman who
bad evinced an Interest In the shortcom
ing bo of her sisters.
"If 1,000 men 'were to com In here and
each one ate fl worth. I would have just
11.000." he said, by way of example. "On
the other hand, if I should feed 1,000 women
and allow them to pick out their own
checks I might possibly have $500. but I
doubt It- Oh, they are natural morn
cheats, women are. It seem to be a sixth
sense In every woman's makeup to try to
get aheaed of th person who provides her
meals. It Isn't lack of money that makes
them do It, either: It's dishonesty, pure and
simple, that's all." ' ;
Th woman to whom those horrifying
revelations had been made walked away
trying to evolve some plan for emanclpat
Ing her sisters from the web of dishonest
propensities In which they had become en
meabed. Ovitelde th restaurant she met a
man friend.
"I'v just been down there for lunch," Ji
said. "Glorious place; cheap, too. It a
fellow has th knack It is dead easy to
get a Ge-cent meal for a quarter. I work
'cm that way nearly every day. They
never watch the men, but I tell you they
keep a sharp eye on you women." New
York Herald.
"See that the things are sent at once!"
the domineering girl said, with the arro
gant, supercilious, self-important air that
ah always uses to those she considers her
Inferiors.
But this time she met her match in the
little Irish saleswoman, who poised her
pencil above her book and said, "Shall I
send it car of th prialdent at the White
House or Balnt Peter at the pearly gate?"
For once th domineering girl was meek.
She gav her address like a lady and left
th stors as soon as possible. For domin
eering girls do not like to, be reduced to
their elemental Ingredients by a clever "In
ferior."
That is th reason why the servants, the
clerks, the people who are dependent and
cannot retaliate for fear of losing their
bread and butter Jobs are chosen as the
victims of th girl who domineers, the ring
mistress of modern life.

Pituitary Gland Potential
J
Prof. Arthur Keith at th English Royal,
college of Surgeons, believes giants can
be raised In these days. He asserted this
belief in a recent lecture on th fossil re
mains of a giant.
"Bo far," he said, "we have only un
locked the door of th unknown. We do
not know exactly what .the room will con
tain when we enter it, but we think that
when we have done that, we shall have the
means of regulating the size and stature
of body at will. Modern research has
proved that the growth of a giant Is due to
a diseased condition. Recent discoveries
relating to th cause of giantism have
shown that the key to the growth was
found In what Is called the pituitary body
at th base of the skull..
"It is a Uttl thing which would not
fill a teaspoon. It la smaller than a
grape, and yet we know it to be a thing
of very great Importance. It was dis
covered by a French physician, Ilerre
Mart, who found also that In cases of
abnormal growth this small body had en
tered. He Jumped at the Idea that It must
secret something which somehow affected
th growth of th body.
"Now it has been found that in the pitui
tary gland are secreted a number of liquid
substances which ar deposited In th
blood. Possibly at a future date, scientists
may be able to extract that one unknown
essential substance and by feeding the Sub
ject with it will be able to make the growth
go on continuously. Now, normal growth
occurs In stages. There are weeks when a
child stays the same also. This Is followed
by weeks when it grows, for the pituitary
body Is only active by fits. '
"When the unknown secretion Is too
plentiful In adults, It cause unusual stout
ness, but In the young, who have not yet
flniahed their growth, an abnormal growth,
or giantism, results. Science therefore holds
out th hop that people may be able to
regulate their heights, and that beauty
doctors may be able to work on strictly
scientific principles.
"If a lady, for instance, did not think
that her nose was symmetrical a doctor
could bring It to th shape required by
means of a pltultal sandwich."
When Nova Scotia Flirted with Uncle Sam
J
At this time, when certain British colonies
are so touchy, apparently, on the possi
bility of annexation, It will be Interesting
to read certain resolutions Introduced in
tho Nova Scotia legislature forty years ago.
At that time the settlement of the Ala
bama claims was pending, and some brave
spirit put th Nova Bcotla sentiment in
thes words:
'Whereas, Th Joint high commission
appointed by the government of Great
Britain and th United States of America
to consider the Alabama claims (so-called),
the fishery question and other matters in
dispute between these two governments,
will shortly sit at Washington; and
whereas, It Is conceded by the British gov
ernment that England may be liable to the
Urlted States for a large amount on ac
count of the Alabama claims aforesaid;
and wherdeas, this hous Is most desirous
that th burden should fall as lightly upon
the Imperial treasury a possible; there
fore, "Resolved, That this house do Immedi
ately, through his excellency the governor
general, Intimate to her most gracious
majesty, the queen, that should sh be
graciously pleased to cede this province to
the United States as payment In part of In
full of such claims, sues cession will meet
with the cheerful consent of this hous;
provided always that the United Btates
will admit this province Into th .union as
a state, with all th rights and privileges
now held and enjoyed by any of the states
comprising such union containing a Uk
population, and upon such terms, financial
or otherwise, as may be agreed upon by
such Joint high commission, the terms of
such cession to b sanctioned by th gov
ernments of Great Britain and the United
States, and to be ratified by the people ef
this province at th polls."
Nothing aver came of the movement.

Man Still Gropes Darkly V
Prof. T. D. A. Cockrell of the University
of Colorado, in Popular Science Monthly,
writ In interesting fashion of th social
conditions likely to exist In th futur. He
ays that In th garden of Eden, at the
very beginning of his career, man ac
quired th sens of sin and was henceforth
to be a wanderer in a spiritual as well as
a physical sens Henc It comes that we.
In this year UU, think; proper to tnquir

"Along with the development of th med
ical and agricultural science, w may hop
for great advance In social organisation,
reducing to a minimum th tremendous
wast of life and property which goe on

very Individual will be assured all the
air, food, clothes and shelter necessary for
a normal exlstenoe, and will find ampl op
portunities for exercising such talents as
he may posses.
"Liberty will be ourtalled In so far as
It permit anti-social activities, but It will
be tremendously extended, In the form of
practical opportunities, to develop ordinary
or special abilities.
"All this may be a long way ahead, and
ther may exist great differences as to
th program for th near future; but I
suppose that few will deny that such out

follow from Indefinite advance In th di

A Tesvjrfal Recital.
"Gentlemen," said an American, who had
been listening to some "steep" stories,
"you hav all don your best, but I think
any yarn will make your look small. I

moose. To make matters worse, my am
munition gave out. As I thought of th

thought flashed through my mind. Taking
