A bedroom papered with: the flags of all natlons Is occupied by an artist ‘who has a hankering for oddities. Ev- ery nationality under the sun is rep- ! resented by the colors on the walls, i and the effect upon a person when first entering the room is somewhat daz- zling. “Those flags,” said the artist, “represent a career of crime which has extended over the entire world. In fact, I am an international thief. ‘When 1 toured Africa, Asia, Europe and Australia some years ago with two other fellow artists we each boasted of our ability in ‘pinching’ towels from the hotels at which we stopped. The fellow who got the lowest number was to pay the passage of the other two back to this country. I came In first by managing to collect 207 towels, many of which came from world fa- mous’ hotels. When I got them home I immediately turned them into flags with my water colors, and they make good souvenirs of my criminal career.” ~—Philadelphia Record. = e T You can make and free from alum Royal Baking Powder ABSOLUTELY PURE.

The plants that turn to the right in the northern hemisphere reverse this trend in the southern hemisphere, and therefore, for the sake of consistency, it may be preferable to describe the two kinds of spiral tefidency as re- spectively “clockwise” and ‘“counter clockwise,” which latter can be short- ened to “counterwise.” The honey- suckle and the hop turn ‘“clockwlise,” while the convolvulus and the scarlet runner bean twine “counterwise.” Bx- periments made by growing scarlet run- ner beans in opaque cylinders, to dis- cover whether the deviation of the twist was Innate or merely from the direction of the light, disclosed the fact that the plant possesses an inclina- tion resembling the instinct of anlmals, of proceeding in a given direction, and resents any attempt to force it other- wise. Swedenborg In Ruffles and Wig. Swedenborg was a great deal in Lon- don, where he was known and admired and had several good friends, but his small knowledge of English and the impediment in his speech precluded him from any real intimacy. His slight figure, with its fine features and hazel eyes, was well known in the neighbor- hood of Coldbath fields, where he lodg- ed, and he was often seen stopping to talk to the children, for whom he used to carry sweetmeats. He was always dressed in an old fashioned suit with lace ruffles and wore a full bottomed wig, carrying a sword and a gold head- ed cane. On Christmas eve, 1771, he had a stroke of apoplexy, and on March 29, 1772, the day he had fore- told, he died at the house which he had himself named.—Occult Review. Antiquity of Tea Smoking. “With your tea cigarettes,” said the antiquary sternly, “you young ‘ladies think yourselves very modern and de- cadent. But look here.” He took from a portfolio a French print of the seventeenth century that portrayed two men, with cumbrous pipes, charging the same from a box of China tea. “This shows you,” the old man said, “the antiquity of tea smoking. It was a common thing in France 200 years ago. Blegnt mentions it, and Grand d@’Aussay in his ‘Histoire de la Vie Privee des Francals’ describes it in de- tall. An old vice, a dead vice—for the French found that tea smoking racked the nerves—how very, very foolish you girls are to have revived it.”—New Or- leans Times-Democrat. Orphans. Two of the young friends of Bishop Wilberforce of Oxford gave the au- thoritles of the university so much trouble that they won the nicknames of Hophni and Phinehas. One day, says T. H. 8. Escott in “So- clety In the Country House,” they were lounging about the hall at Cud- desdon palace, singing the Luthéran refrain, “The devil is dead,” when the bishop suddenly appeared. He walked very gently up to them and in his most caressing manner, placing one hand on each head, said in a consolatory tone: “Alas, poor orphans!” “T. B. A’s Poem." Thomas Bailey Aldrich was fond of retelling that anecdote of his own boy- Ish daring which appears in his “Ponk- apog Papers)t to the effect that upon first entering James T. Flelds’ office in the Old Corner Bookstore his eyes fell upon that kindly editor and publisher’s memorandum book, open upon the ta- ble. Mr. Fields was absent for the moment, and the youthful poet could not help noticing the impressive list of agenda: “Don’t forget to mail R. ‘W. E. his contract,” “Don’'t forget O. W. H’s proofs,” etc., whereupon the “young Milton,” who certainly deserved to succeed In his profession, wrote opon the memorandum book, “Don’t forget to accept T. B. A’s poem,” and disappeared. The poem was accepted, ald for and, truest kindness of all, as r. Aldrich asserted, was never print- ed. But the resourceful youth never lost his deferential attitude toward the Moving Pictures at City Opera Hoqs'e Tonight Heginning at 8 o’clock Romeo Caught in a Trap Election Smith’s Hard Luck TIllustrated Song Roll Around Complete Change Tonight Price Ten Cents bearers of those famous initlaled names that had once preceded his own.—At- lantic. —— e — Made Him Hop.

The phrase be- came so popular and excited so much controversy in consequence of a doubt whether the adjective was irreverent | that its author had to explain eighteen | years later that he had Intended “no irreverence, even to the dollar, which ! he is well aware is becoming daily more and more an object of worship.” “Dollar” is certainly one of the world’s great words now, and it is difficult to realize that it only means “valleyer,” the “thaler” having been named after the Joachimsthal, in Bohemis, in whose valley it was first coined in the six- teenth century.—London Chronicle, Human Nature. 2 “Why are guests so habitually dis- contented?’ asked the landlord. “They’re not really discontented,” an- Bwered the clerk. “They merely want to convey a favorable impression about what they are used to at home.”’— ‘Washington Star.
