Not one of us. even tho most good natured, likes to linvo his mistakes pointed out. Wo may appear not to mind corrections and accept them with a smile, but It Is humau nature to smnrt under correction, although some of us may bo clever enough to conceal tho smart; benco tho fewer mistakes we call attcutlon to In others tho bet ter. Two-thirds of tho mistakes we mako nro trivial. Their correction Is unimportant. Why, then, notice them? Yet some people do. and do so con stantly. A person" speaks of having done a certain thing on Thursday, when In reality It was done on Wednes day. If no Important point Is involv ed, why call attention to the mistake? What good does It do to have the ex act day set right? It Is a matter of no Importance, so why insist upon cor recting tho trivial error? Stanch friendships huv often been pricked by this needle of useless correction. It is a great art this art of learning to allow others to be mistaken when tho mistake Is unimportant. Few learn It, but those who do are among the most comfortable friends one cau have. Arbiters of Hairdressing. "I want to learn the latest thing in hairdressing," said the visitor as soon as she landed in New York. "Take me to a hairdresser's establishment, so I can look things over." "No, indeed." said her New York friend. "We will go there after you know what you wish to buy. but the place to learn how to dress your hair is In the dry goods shops. All you have to do Is to study the salesgirls' hair. It is always done In the latest modo, and they all do it alike, so you cannot mistake. Sometimes it is badly exaggerated, but. of course, you don't havo to copy that" "I didn't know tho shopgirls were your arbiters of fashion In New York." "Not In all respects, but. you see. hair dressing doesn't cost anything. To havo the latest styles In clothes or jewelry Is espensive, but one can be a very howling swell In the matter of hair without Its costing a cent. Be sides, they are usually restricted in the matter of gowns to plain black or possibly white blouses, so they tako It all out In doing their hair." New York Press. What It Costs to Feel and Think. Every throb of pleasure costs some thing to the physical system, and two throbs cost twice as much as one. If we cannot Ux a precise equivalent it is not because the relation Is not defi nite, but from the difficulties of reduc ing degrees of pleasure to a recognized standard. Of this, however, there can be no reasonable doubt namely, that a largo amount of pleasure supposes a correspondingly large expenditure of blood and nerve tissue, to the stinting, perhaps, of tho actlvo energies and the intellectual processes. It is a matter of practical moment to ascertain what pleasures cost least for there aro thrifty and unthrifty modes of spend ing our brain and heart's blood. One of tho safest of delights. If not very acute, is the delight of abounding physical vigor, for, from tho very sup position, the supply to the brain Is not such as to Interfere with the general Interests of tho system. Alexander Bain. Nothing Doing. A playwright discussed at a dinner in New York the art of acting. "I believe," said he, "In subtlety and restraint A nod, a shako of tho head, a silent pause these things nro often moro effective than tho most violent yelling and ranting. "Lifo Is like that, subtlo and silent What for instance, could bo more ex pressive than this scene, a scene with out n spoken word, that I onco wit nessed in the country? "An undertaker stood on a corner near a noblo mansion. He elevated his brows hopefully and inquiringly as a physician enrao from the house. Tho physician, compressing his, lips, shook his head decidedly and hurried to his carriage. Then tho undertaker, with a sigh, passed on." Mary Knew All About It. Llttlo Mnry's father had been leach ing her to walk properly. "Walk slow ly and turn out your toes," ho admon ished her. While she was undergoing this teach ing she attended Sunday school ono day, Tho golden text was, "Teach mo to walk honestly." After reciting it several times tho teacher asked: "Who knows what that means?" "I do," replied llttlo Mary. "Walk slowly and turn out your toes." His Poetio Imagination. "Doesn't tho delay at tho telepuono annoy you?" "No," said tho slow spoken person, "I kind of llko silence and solitude, and I never fpcl more alono than I do with tho .receiver at my ear and no sound save that of a low sad volco now and then In the dark dlstanco that sighs; 'Waiting!' "-Washington Star. Not Guilty. Employer (to his clerk) Is It true that when tho clock strikes 0 you put down your pen and go, even if you aro in the middle of a word? Clerk Cer tainly not, sir.

S. Dodge. The price paid for the artists could not bo ascertained at tho time of going to press. An Obedient Patient. An old doctor whoso memory was bo ginning to fail him called In to see a young man who was ill. On arriving at tho home he found his patient in bed with nothing the matter but a slight cold. After prescribing tho usual remedies he said: "Now, my dear sir, you must stay In bed till I como again." Ho went away and forgot all about his patient The time flow by. Ono day tho M. D. came across tho young man's mother In the street Tho sight of Mrs. Jones brought his patient to his mind, and, with a start, he said: "By tho bye, how Is your son getting on?" To his amazement Mrs. Jones replied that h'e was still In bed, obedient to the doctor's commands. Ho had been there three weeks. Illustrated Bits. The Art of Pickling Nuts. "Tho Chlneso aro the only people in tho world who know the art of pickling all kinds of nuts," said a San Francis co man. "You take, for Instance, tlio pickled Chlneso walnut This is tlio most delightful of all tho relish fami ly. Tho big nut is pickled and has the finest kind of flavor. It Is rich, and an order of them costs $1. Then there Is tho Chinese butternut This, too, Is pickled and Is palato tickling. Tho Chlneso nro tho only folk who can really mako flno nut butter.

What becomes of tlio men who lose in Wall street. They aro seldom heard of. The visitor to New York gets tile notion that the gay crowd of men at tho Waldorf tho "uptown 'street' V comprises them all. But this crowd 13 altogether mlsreprcseutativo and baa no truo sign value, says a writer on Wall street In the New Broadway Mag azine. You can retain your equilibrium caH ly In watching them by remembering, tint Runner of Now Britain is hid ing somewhere, a fugitive from Jus tice; that Jumper of Milwaukee Is 'h prison; that there nro many other men who wont down hard with big crash es, and that for every ono of tho bjg men there aro 10,000 Httlo men whflsb losses are smaller, but not a whit kjpa fatal. You would find some of them tonigltf In New York, If you know in what window to look, figuring anxiously rtrttl endlessly, looking over Insurance pa pers to seo If further loans aro r& mlsslblc. Their wives aro sewing; their daugh ters are studying stenography. Yo will find others hanging about hotel lobbies, and the moment you catph their eyo or grip their hands you kndw that they nro nervous, distraught, broke, restless typical Wall street Vic tims. i Tho others, professionals, parasites satellites, winners, you will find In wb cafes and hotel restaurants, irtalciilg up a largo part of tlio crowds at wher ry's and Delraonko's, Martin's Qjm Rector's, tho'Waldorf, Manhattan, Asi tor, St. Regis and nolland nowi Wall street by day demands tho Great Whito Way at night From tho mo-s ment tho market opens till its clooo ho gnmo Is a fast and furious ono of sharp trlckory, clever dodging, raifldryv bluffing, hypocrisy, lying. Nerves aro constantly tense: thp brain must bo clear and quick at ev ery move. Successful lying uses mi grny matter, and tho flash and festivi ty of tho Tonderloln at night aro Just unnatural enough to tit In and offer tlio kind of recreation deslrod. . THE CRESCENT SYMBOL"! How It Came to Be Adopted by th Mohammedans. Tho crescent symbol of tho Moham medans has nothing to do with tbolr peculiar religious opinions and cero monles. It was not originally n symbol of tho followers of Mohammed nt 6.t, but was first used by tho Byzaiitluea. Thousands of coins havo been found in all parts of Turkey which date baok to the tlino when Constantinople was known ns Byzantium, and on each of these tho symbol of tho crescent ap pears, proving conclusively that It was In use as an emblem amonf (ho peoplo of that region long before By zantium was overthrown and lta tmtua changed to Constantinople. Tho Btnry of tho origin of tho crescent symbol la as follows: When Philip of Macedonia besieged Byzantium ho had planned to storm the city on a certain cloudy night, but before his arrangements wero completed tho moon shono out and discovered his approach to w bo Bleged citizens, who accordingly march ed out and repulsed his forces, poma thing which would havo been Impossi ble In tho darkness. After that event all Byzantine coins bore tho symbol of tho crescent moon, which wob olways alluded to as tho "savior of Byzan tium." After many years tho hordes trader Mohnnimed II. captured Constantino ple. At that tlmo tho crescent was used everywhere and upon everything: Suspecting that thpro must bo magical power in tho orablom, tho Moha'rarae dolis appropriated it arid havo s'lhco used it ns their ouiy symbolic decoration.
