Take the girl on an unsuspecting visit to the laboratory of the psycho logical clinic of the University of Pennsylvania, which is directed by Dr. Llghtncr Witmer, head of the department of psychology. Then have her place her hand in a ma chine which you will notice is la beled a "phthymograph" or "phy nmograph,' and step into an ad joining room to await developments. While her hand rests easily in the machine, some one whispers in an audible voice your name, "George," "Reginald," or what it might be, and you keep your eye on the indicator. The machine will do the work, and you can tnke the word of some of the psychologists who have been ex perimenting with it as to the abso lute authenticity of this statement. What the machine does is to reg ister on a piece of paper a distinct line, which designates with precise correctness the very emotions the mention of your name to the girl has caused her to experience. If the line sinks despairingly downward toward the bottom of the paper, take it from the "proposal machine" that your stock is rather low and you had better seize upon a confidential tip on paper and con tinue to press your suit a time longer. If, however, the line fairly leaps, toward the top of the paper every thing is all right and you ought to rush Into the room where the girl is seated, draw her to your breast and say: "Well, tell me, why didn't I think of this long ago?" Before going into he details of how this "phthymograph" works out in actual practice, some Idea ought to be given of the mechanical con struction. In the first place there is1 a small metal cylinder on the Inside nf which 1r a rubber linlnsr which fits the hand like a glove. It is into this rubber glove the girl inserts herl hand. The space between the glove and the cylinder Is filled with water, and on the top of the cylinder is a tube that acts as a gauge, showing a con-i traction or an expansion f the girl's hand. As the hand contracts thei water f.'ills In the tube. At the same time n like effect is caused in a logg er rubber hose which is attached to the upright metfil tube and passes through the partition into the adjoin- Ing room. Connected with the hose is a sort of piston-like apparatus, tip ped with a rubber diaphragm, at the end of which is a lever wnicn regis ters the contractions or expansions on the paper. For Men. There Is no beter shoe mnde than the celebrated "J. E. Tilt," which is to be found at the Mllllkin Shoe Store. And for heavy wear there is nothing equal to the United Workman Shoe." dt-f.

Donned In a pair of blue jeans, f little 'the worse for wear, though fit ting as snug as a kid glove on the shapely hand of the fairer sex, ham mer in hand, coat a little short for a rainy day and hardly up to the pres ent standard of fashion, a broad smile reaching from ear to ear, Senutor Albert Abraham was spied "mosylng" up the main thoroughfare of the city today. At first impression one would have been lead to believe that the disseminator of the theories of 13'iack stone was on a "knocking" expedition, so conspicuous was his implement of war-r-a hammer displayed to the peace and dignity of the unsuspecting public. He had no time for social converse, all friends and enemies, too had been cast to the winds. When approached by a News repre sentative to ascertain, if possible, why this air of importance and the cause of appearing on the paved streets of Kosehurg garbed in a regalia more- fit for a member of the carpenter's union no satisfactory explanation was given to the news gatherer. In fact, the Senator looked upon the "pencil pusher" as a man of insignificance to one like himself bent on some mission the exactness of which was a loss to the newspaper man. At first thought the latter decided to turn in a firo alarm, but after calming himself, du cided to watch the route outlined by the would-be assasln of some delin quent client. Going up the street, without touching a lamp post, and barely rubbing the high plnued in the sidewalks, when the senator reaHted the Odd Fellows Temple he turned to the left, still holding steadfast to his hammer, no coat tall in the air, for this part of his raiment was made when coats were trimmed to the top notch, he gained in speed. The News man was "winded" at the first half but followed on. As the. senator1 reached a Epot about half way be tween Cass and Lane going north on Main he again made a sudden "shoot" to the left. All was lost sight of for just a mo ment and when the News representa tive, complctey fagged out by ihe trving ordeal, reached the large building being erected at the' above particular spot by the Rosehurg Min isterial Association, lo, and behold, with hammer in hand, perspiration flowing from his brow like an Oregon mist breaking over Mt. Nebo, the Senator was perched on a high scaf fold driving spikes that looked to him like they were a foot long The newspaper representative gaz ed at him for only a moment when Contractor Clelnents cried out, "There's a fellow who looks like he wanted to be drafted in. Catch him!" At this uncalled for salute the News man made his exit, not lookiug for anything to do outside of his reg ular duty, and left the Senator, who only a few hours before had been commanded to appear at the taber nacle for duty immediately after fin ishing his noon day meal. Those in charge of the building are no respeclcra of person or profes sion and you may he commanded at any time to put on your apron and join the army of workers who serve without pay from the man below. So beware. Among those who nre "doing time" and actually working to day on the structure nre H. H. Church, Senator Abraham, li. W. Strong and Itev. .las. K. Hawkins.
