So far as the reports have revealsd it does not appear that the outbreak was in any way due to harsh practices, It seemed to Bave been the result of a plot among those who made up thelr mind that they should dstermine when they had paid the pen- alty for their crimes, and being willing o commit more in order to get their freedom were able to win of the inetitution's inmates to thelr way of thinking. Stuch conduct cannot fa to gwve a set- back to much of the good work that has been done in behsif of better conditions in penal institutions. Those invorvea m this particmlar affair certainly have mne reason to anticipate any leniency hence- forth. They have simply added to their troubles and proved aghin the danger of bad leadership. “A woman who wants to be popu- lar nowadays,” bgan the girl who had a Iot of ideas. “has to be a perfect chameleon.” - “Chameleons are those things that change color,” replied the girl who was embroidering something. “I l¢arn- d about ‘em in high school.” “Yes, that's what 1 mean,” contin- ued the girl who had a Iot of ideas. after alll I've just been reviewin; “You do learn something in high schoo my last week and thinking that I've been one—I mean a chameleon—my- s4lf.

Aunt Jane is one of thoge nice old fashioned 'souls who thinks that suffrage is unwomanly and that any woman who wears skirts above her shoe tops is improper. I had to plan my costume for that dinner very carefully, so I wore a last year's gown and then I acted all the time as T knew Aunt Jane expected ? to act. OUR DRY RULINGS. In connection with some of the rulings in regard to liquor tunder the prohibi- tion law there are deeisions to indicate that we strain at a gnat and swallow a camel Perhaps this is no better llus- trated than by the ruling of the attorney general that a number of cases of whis- key which are being brought to this country on a British steamer With the idea of being transshipved in New York harbor to another British ship going to Bermuda can be seized by the United States authorities. At first it might seém that this steame ehip line ought to know better than to undertake a violation of the prohibition laws of this country, but in doing what ill is doing and in demanding an injunc- 1 the courts of this country to pre- any interference with the trans- shipment it doesn't appear that it is en- |gaged in the manufacture, sale or im- She thinks I'm sweet and,deminine and refined, and I wouldn’t Yor -worlds do_anything to change her excellent opinjon of me.” “How interesting,” said the girl who was engaged in ebroidering something, casually. “The next day was Cleo Samborn's bridge, and in order to make a hit with Cleo's set I had to make myself over into an ultra smart looking, vam- pish sort of person, with a huge hat and & bored look and earings. Aunt Jane would have fainted at sight of me, Indeed, she would died if she could have heard the things we talked about the latest divorces and new dance steps and a particularly daring show that's just come to town. “Yes, indeed,” said the other young person. “Then Wednesday I went with Ann Brainerd to a lecture on something— Lve forgotien what it was—and all v < « _| Ann's friends are those nice girls who D e T e eTage DUt | wear flat heeled shoes and horn rim- poses since there | med spectacies and dash around with er here of the liquor Which is going 10| stacks of books under their arm, you {E \ know.

I didn’t cut my bhair but i made it look awfully large and messy an dachieved a striking look- ing costume, I'm sure it must have been striking, for a child siting near me asked me Wwhat play I was to be in, and when I said I wasn't in any of them she wanted to know what I was dressed that way for, then. “I suppose I could stand all these adjustments better if it weren't for Arthur. You see, he comes over five or six times a week, and of course what he expects me is—wll, sort of ever I may be when anywhere else at honie at least I've got to be inno- cent and lovely.

I look forward to that even when I'm masquerading as something else. And I'd give up all the othr varieties of me if I thought he minded. I guess maybe—" “I guess s, too!!” agreed her friend with a smile. SHIPPING CUSTOMS 2 IN VARIOUS COUNTRIES “The tip has its geography no less than the coin with which it is paid. Extending it may be graceful courtesy in one part of the world and a matter of a forced essment in another; & virtue on one side of a political boun- dary and a crime on the other,” ac- cording to a bulletin on the tipping costums in various countries issued by the National Geographic Society. a few weeks after the long awaited Russian Revolution had start- ed,” the bulletin says, ‘American trav- elers in Petrograd cheerfully paid a percentage of their bills for service and were glad the necessity of buying their hats several times over as modern man does if he frequents some of the res- taurants in America.

Ambition was his downfall; it held him from the highest office in the gift of tie peoble; it made him a mur- deror for his slaying of Hamilton in a duel, through the circumstances under which it was fought was nothing less, and fnally a traitor to his country which led, to his trial. Although he was finally acquitted, yet the stigma was not removed and Burr forever was a marked man. Burr's trial was based on the charge of treasonable designs upon Mexjeo.” A counter-charge was his attempt of the foundation of a « of Western terri- tory into a sew aie jovernment In fact, Burr's ami.ticn wa the erection the Tnited States.

There came a growl as if from the jungle, and all the women and some of thc men trembled. Here was a man, virile, powerful, un- eonquerable, intellectual gladiator, and it was seen at a glance that soon there would not be left a whole bone in Wirt's body. And this was the case. It was the giant against the carpet knight, and the result was as might have been ex- pected. Marshall listened to Wirt snd listen- ed to Martin and his great good sense told him that the prosecution had no legal case. Receiving their charge, the jurymenaretired and soon returned with the verdict: “We, the jury, say that Aaron Burr is not-proved guiky by amy evidence submitted to us.” Rising -to his-full height, Bure rebuk- ed the jurymen for bringing in such an ambiguons. verdict. Retiting for a fow moments, they returned with the plain, straightforward verdict “Not guilty” and Burr, victorious over his énemies, strode proudly out of the court room to be feted by hig innumerable admirers. But the people generally fafled to be convinced, and finding himself stunned in thig country, he went to Burope.
