uBW YORK, April 15. It seems a
pretty cold-blooded thing; but It's
being done right along. Pawning mem
bers'of one's own family! That's what
it Is. For if poor frightened Fldo is
not a member of the family, just what
is he? And Fldo, along with the pet
canary and the noisome parrot, is
being placed in hock' in New York
City almost as regularly as Is one's
watch and chain. There 1b a .pawn
broker in the theatrical boarding
house district who makes a specialty
of just such loans, keeping the pets
lor 90 days all safe and sound. If their
masters and mistresses don't appear
with the necessary lucre by the end
of the 90 days, it' means new masters
and mistresses. He even takes snakes
into his keeping, and If the snake
charmers fail to redeem them, he
sells them for ?3 a foot. Parrots are
accepted on probation. No matter how
amiable and respectable they mv
seem, one never can tell. And this is
a decorous pawnshop. So if Poll
emerges from her silence along dur
ing the second day as a profane crea
ture, back she goes to her needy own-
er.
how much closer to Broadway they
are in time of reaching there than
the residents of the north end of
Manhattan Island. Consequently, com
muters running for the train the oth
er morning were surprised to find the.
chief of police selling papers in place
of the regular city-like newsboy. The
head guardian of the law was asked
for an explanation. "Joe's gone tor
breakfast," he said. "I didn't have
much to do so I told him I'll help
htm with his papers while he was
gone. Which paper? Yessir."
Westchester is not rural. One of
New York City'B most accesible su
burbs, its denizens always point out '
a
The story of $120,000,000 worth of
diamonds in sight In Brazilian mines
has been brought home by Charles A.
Lageson, American mine owner in
the South American country. He ex
pects Brazilian diamond finds to rival
those of South Africa. Ordinary hu
man beings will probably never ,put
grow the thrill that conies with stor
ies of such discoveries. Diamonds
either because of their sparkle or their
value hold a firm grip on the im
agination. And we like to hear Mr.
Lageson tell about .those discovered in
our own half of the world. American
business 'men,' particularly manufac
turers, get another kind of thrill out
of it, however. Anything, which enrich
es South American countries right
now is a good thing for us. We can't
help a certain selfish satisfaction in
it. Low exchange has cut into our ex
port trade seriously and such things
as this diamond business will even
tually help to counteract it. "Among
the cheering pieces of news, the facts
for the credit side of the ledger, to
be considered at the discussions at
the coming convention of the Nation-1
be
put themselves Into the nineteen vil
lage offices; and havo given a brand
new polish to their golf club3. There
is no one now, to come around and
countries with which we want to do 'quote any Sunday ordinance to them;
or to enforco any state hiws which
may be inconvenient.
al Foreign Trade council, ylll
every bit of good news from
the,
ouslness." W. C. Godfrey, export man
ager of a leading New York silk con
cern, said,' 'I hope we will have a
aozen more such reports by the time
we go to Cleveland for the convention
in May."
The newest addition to the pickpoc
ket's equipment has nothing to do
with fire-arms of black-jacks. It's sim
ple but efficacious. Garlic. "Never
turn your head away in a crowded
car or train ,when you are jammed
against someone who has been eating
garlic," advised one who is in close
touch with New York's criminals and
their vagaries. "The odor may not
be pleasant, but maybe that's why it's
there. Garlio is the pickpocket's
friend and he's finding it out and
making the most of it.. By eating lib
erally of It, he gets a clear field to
work undisturbed by the gaze of his
victim."
Have you a little village of your
own? It's a great plan. Nineteen tired
business men, who must rest from
their labors in the city by golfing un
disturbed on Sunday have solved their
problem. They are all commuters, liv
ing over in New Jersey. And they are
all members of the Haddon Country
club. iSO they have incorporated the
village of Tavistock, whose bounda
ries include the club and its links;
held a perfectly good legal election:
All tho, latest styles and no fasten
ings to annoy one! Such is, the 'so
lution of civilization come upon by
Uie head hunters' wives and daugh
ters of Putumnyo. Dr. Herbert S.
Dickey, just home from the head wat
ers of the Amazon river, in Brazil,
told us all abont it and proved his
story with photographs. It seems that
while their husbands and gentlemen
friends are out head-hunting, the ma
trons and' maids of this resourceful
country study American fashion mag
azines which kindly travelers have
brought there, and re-produce on
their persons in vnri-colored paints
the latest New York and Parisian
models and frocks. ;

No young man can afford to forget that a sub

the balance of other people's opinion in his
favor.
When you parry a Checking Account at this in-,

financial affairs, it grows to be second nature
