If you toll a woman hIio is Rood hIio
may thank you. Toll her bIiu la pretty
and she will love you.
One reason why 11 little learning Is a
dangerous thing Is that It to8sesor Is
likely to write a historical novel.
Tenia meanwhile does not Insist that
ej thoHO making signals from Mars are
relutives of the man in the moon.
Hiding with a girl In an automobllo
Is better than oil a tandem bicycle. The
latter accustoms her to talking back.
Yellow fever Is not such a terrlblu
disease, after all. Of the 1,'JM eases In
Havana In 1000, only 121 per cent were
fatal.
If Pnttl gets cash for her castlo sonni
kind friend should ndvlho her to keep
her count away from the brlc-a-brac
si ores.
Most of the people who severely criti
cise Mr. Cudahy for giving up 5,000 to
the .kidnappers nro people who have no
children of their own.
Isn't It strange that ull these peoplo
who knew about tho salt cure never
thought to mention It until tho Chica
go professors spoke up?
Four times as many men as women
killed themselves In New York last
year. Yet no suffragist can bo counted
upon to take tlds Into consideration.
Alfred Austin's reasons for declining
to read the remarks of his critics are
not altogether unlike those of the peo
ple who prefer not to read his poems.
A Long Island dog died tho other day
of appeudlclt.s. It Is needless to add
that thu'dug moved In tho best canine
society previous to Its sad but glori
ous llnlsh.
To some It will hcciii that tho "crim
inal mistake" was made when the au
thor of "Colonel Carter" pioceeded to
nit lu Judgment on tho creator or
"Undo Tom."
The women In the neighborhood are
always anxious to tell a hrldo how to
manage her husband, but the men pre
fer to let the groom llud but his trou
bles for himself.
"Conhdence meil riiTy Hint pvop"lew',m
cat with their knives are the easiest
victims to dealt with. This Is only
natural, ami It Is' more or less gratify
ing, too. A ulan who eats with his
knife ought to be hit with a gold brick
as often as possible.
There are more rich men In this coun
try thau'lu former times, and Individual
fortunes are relatively larger. Hut, as
a rule, rich men are more liberal with
their means than ever before lu the
world's history. Klch men more than
ever recognize the fact that wealth Is
n trust and that tho day of reckoning
Is coming.
What Hooker Washington Is saying
to the men of his own race, another
clear voice Is saying to the white folks:
"What tho South needs Is respect for
work. We must put on our overalls
and use our hands." There Is no sec
tionalism lu such n lesson; It Is law and
gosiH'l for all latitudes and longitudes.
Industrial development otTers both ha
uls and security for all higher humau
Interests.
Among the noteworthy IwquiviU for
charitable purHscb during the past
jear was that of a Navajo Indian,
whose estate, valued at over $110,000,
was left for tho establishment of a freo
medical dlopcusary, as "an aid lu ex
tinguishing cruel aboriginal supers!)
tloim lu tho trllw." The giver recog
n I zed the fact that, lu an Important
m'iim', It Is for the Indian to say what
the future of the Indian blmll be.
Of tholt.lfcl railroad locomotives man
ufactured lu American shops last year,
605 were scut abroad. The llrlllsh rail
roads iKiught more of these than any
other country, Uuhsla Indng a eloo sec
ond. There Is no longer liny denial of
the ability or American manufacturers
to turn out locomotives more cheaply
'and rapidly than their European com
petitory though tho (ermaiis are at
ivady using American engine as mod
els. It is not unlikely that the exporta
tion of railroad locomotives may be
come nu Important branch or our for
eign trade.
Kugllsh shoe manufacturers who are
tegliiulng to surfer from American
eouietltlon allege that, although the
British workman's dally wages are only
ultout half as large as those or the
American operative, tho "labor cost"
or a pair or Bhoes Is rally lift ttr cent
more lu Kuglaud than In the United
States. Most or the responsibility ror
this fact Is laid upon the Hrltlsh union
of boot and shoe operatives, which, 1 1 -1
Is said, forbids Its members to turn
out more than a certain amount of
work. Possibly this union has round
the solution to the labor problem; but
the manufacturers doubt It, and base
their doubt upon tho experience or tho
race that men who ar afraid or doing
too much eventually ilnd It hard to get
anything to do.
The American peoplo are uuhiuo in
that they llud uu eudlow fund of Uuiuor
In their own weaknesses, and nothing
has produced mote smiles than the Ui
voice court. I'leachers have talked,
Judges have solemnly protested against
the abuse of the law, l.oglslatuies have
been mcmorallxcd, but the matrimonial
(separator continues grinding, while all
tho world keeps its humotous eje" un
the newspapers for "a good divorce
stoty'." One element of society believes
In a universal law that would d I voice
people whenever they thed of tliu
marital relation. That would rcmoc
from many divorce cases deceit, false
wltt'ess and stupendous lying. It would
obviate the necessity of lawyers select
ing "an easy Judge" to hear their
doubtful cases. It would also do more
to wieek homes, make the woid duty
meaningless and harm the children
than can be estimated. 'It Is too easy
now to break the marital bond. It is
a subject of congratulation that out of
many thousand home only one has any
need of the divorce court.
All the money possessed by America's
richest man couldn't buy him one min
ute's respite from soriow. When Johu
I). Itockefeller came face to face with
the problem of Life and Death he
found lie was no more than a beggar.
The price of a life he could not pay,
and his money was a fortress which
Death stormed with ease. The woild
knows John D. Itockefeller ns a money
grubber, a man who has wrung mill
ions from the legitimate channels of
trade and refused to hear the cries of
the victims to ids capacity for busi
ness. Tlieie Is another side to his char
acter. The love of this strong man
was lavished on little John McCor
illicit, his grandson. They were a
strango pair. They played together,
they watched tho building of a house
together, they admired the chickens and
ranged the great barn on the Itocke
feller estate together. The man made
tho boy's pleasures Ids own. Little
John McCormlck became 111 and Death
refused to be stayed. The business Mr.
Itockefeller poured oil money and hired
special trains to convey doctors who
could earn fortunes by saving the life
of a baby. Hclenco was Invoked. I0v
erythlng possible was done. "One lit
tle life for a baby for an old man's
sake," was the cry. Tho answer that
came back from tho tomb was "No,"
and after nights of worry and days of
pain there were a little white cotllu ami
a poor old man bowed down with grief.
What is tho good of millions that will
not buy the things that the heart values
more than hope of heaven Itself?
Where land Is so vuluublo that every
square Inch represents a dollar or more,
business blocks must go Into the air In
stead or spreading over the ground. Ily
the old method or building It would be
hard to carry n structure higher than
)jlyeHlx storloa, unless ,tho walls wero
made as thick as a fortress. So u man
with an Imagination struck out a now,
method, embodying In steel an Idea that
Is working a revolution lu tho business
centers of cities. Like other 'wonderrul
developments or recent years, the sky
scraper lias become so common that to
some It may seem commonplace. Yet
(Joorgo A. Fuller, the designer or It,
was only forty-nluo years old when he
died lu Chicago tho other day. Indeed,,
It Is only a row years since the Im
provement In elevators made It possible
to rent olllces ten or more stories above
the street; and almost simultaneous,
was tho decline lu the price or struc
tural steel to u point which enabled
builders everywhere to gain the advantages-
offered by tho steel-rrame
construction Chief of these Is the fact
that a sky-scraper may be carried to
almost any altitude, like the St. Paul
building In New York, which Is twenty
six stories high, and rises more than
three hundred feet above tho street
level, Such a building yields an enor
mous rental. There are no massive
walls to reduce the rentable space.
Tenants willingly pay high rates for
tho light and airy otllces. The structure
shelters ns many persons ns a whole
township, and It provides facltltleHaud
conveniences row towns could afford.
Whether tho steel skeletons will ultl
mutely corrode and crumble, time will
tell. At present we know tho sky
scrapers are practically lire-proof, and
seem beyond the power of any recog
nized agency or destruction, ir it shall
prove that tho designer of them did not
build for the twenty-tlrst century, It
must at least bo admitted that he
served his own generation well.
The Matter ot'tlolts.
The Massachusetts Supreme Court
has decided that street ear Jolts do not
prove contributory negligence on tho
part of tho motoriuau. This seems to
leave the Held wide open for the Jolters.
Tho niotoriuan If of a revengeful or
playful disposition can Jolt the very
socks off his uncomplaining load for
what's the good of complaining In the
face or the Massachusetts precedent?
Some time ago a passenger on tho
Wade 1'ark line happened to let his
gaze wander to tho heaving floor or
the car.
"Sir," ho said between Jolts to tho
man opposite him, "your raise teeth ap
pear to have been Jolted out or your
mouth and onto the tloor or the car."
"Sir," said the unfortunate passenger
ns he took a fresh grip on the olgo of
the seat, "I am well aware or the un
pleasant fact. Don't you seo that I.
am sitting here watting for that bruto"
of a motorman to Jolt 'em back agalu!"
As they say In the higher Institutes of
learning, "Wouldn't that Jolt youl"
