'The Kid Glove Kid.
The average kid glove, according to
those who should know, Is not tnade
of kid at all, but of gout or lamb skiu.
The kids from which the real kid glove
Is made are nurtured uiid cared for al
most as carefully as are race horses.
Most of them are reared in a moun
tainous district of France. The kids
are nourluhed ou milk alone and are
never allowed to eat grass, as that
would coarsen the skiu. The kid is
kept in a pen, where he can receive
no scratch or bruise. They are thus
kept, as It were, in cotton wool until
the age when the skin 1b of most value.
They are ttieii carefully killed aud the
skin dressed with the utmost skill.
Sheep, deer and colts are also used for
so called kid and doeskin gloves.

The Magellanic clouds are two
Cloudy masses of light, oval In shape
and unequal In size, seen at night in
the heavens in the vlciulty of the
south pole.. They are supposed to be
nebulae, or dense aggregations of
stars, so far distunt as to give to the
unassisted eye the impression of cloud
like masses. They cover ureas of 42
and 10 square degrees respectively and
are so named in honor of Ferdinand
Magellan, the great Portuguese navi
gator, who first observed them In 1529

When Mr. Lamar as a member of
Cleveland's cubluot went to Washing
ton he wanted to Und a suitable home.
Among the numerous offers was on.?
from Mrs. Ltahlgren, who was anx
ious to lease her beautiful residence
for a long term. After expatiating
on its numerous advantages the lady
quoted ttlie price for annual reutal at
$7,500 and suld. "Whut do you think

view some time ago. Lord Roberts
bad promised to Inspect the brigade

In selling tickets for the inspection lc
was thought -only fair to let purchas
ers know that the distinguished field
marshal would not be present. Oue
small brigade boy came up aud asked
for two tickets for his father and
mother. The clerk said, "Do your fa
ther und mother know that Lord Rob

the boy replied, with a look of self
confidence, "It's no Lord Roberta

A Gastronomic Joy.
Of all the superb victuals which, by
their great variety and unique colloca-..

Arcadia of every man who loves good
eating, the plunked sbud is probably
tbe most powerful aud poignant in Its
appeal to tbe senses. The wild duck,
though- it sets tbe palate, to vibrating
like an aeolluo harp, ban no thrill for
tbe eye. It is a small and uu lovely'
bird of a dull color and ' ungraceful
outline. ' So. too,-' the diamond back
terrapin. It bus no more beauty . In
death than a plate of soup; And cer
tain other exquisite delicatessen, for
all their sweetness, do not soothe the
sense of smell, Of such are tbe raw
oyster, tbe boiled hurd crab and the
Magotby river cabbage... But the
planked shad ah. bere we, come to a
delicacy which, enchants us alike
through tbe eyes.- tbe palate and tbe
nose! As it comes upon tbe table- it
bas tbe Imperial dignity of a Cbarle
nuigue. Its noble bead moves one to
reverence; tbe epicycloid curve of its
tall Is like tbe curl of a great comber
npon a coral beaio, . And it. radiates a
perfume as of . Araby. Baltimore Sun.

Dashing Into Danger..
'When I was younger," a big Broad
way traffic cop remarked. "I used to
cuss at everybody who Insisted on
dashing across the street In front of a

not the person. Fact la, I've learned
that a majority .of people Just can't
help It An approaching vehicle about
to cross their path is like a red rag to
a bull. -, It's a sort of challenge, a dare.
And tbe Impulse to defeat Us purpose
can't be controlled,. There isn't any
plan of. action. , It's a case of dash
first and think afterward." and some
times, of course, the thinking Is done
In a hospital.
'It's a sort of (disease of the nerves.
f guess, because tbe bead of a busi
ness bouse will do this fool thing just
as quick as his errand boy wllL But
the cop and tbe driver are to blame
whenever, .there's a miscalculation."

XAT HEREVER you happen to see a group; of young
T fellows .you are most certain to find them wearing
clothes of rare style and individuality. We don't claim
that these clothes are always of an exceptional quality;
but we do claim that young men affect certain features
which older people don't. In ."College Chap Clothes"
we have been fortunate, enough to find a quality which
is not by any means expensive, and features which are ,
strikingly young though not too young, for men ; who
wish to reiain their youthf ul appearance. ;. '
The Normandie, The Norfolk, the College Chap and
the College Chap, Jr. . are four, styles of young men's
garments. They ars classed under the name of "Col
lege Chap Clothes." They area branch of "Modem
Clothes," made by "Brandegee, Kincaid & Co., tailor ,
shops at Utica;
If you are particularly sensitive to style you had better
make it your business tb call at our shop and inspect
' these, garments. You may rest assured of good treat
ment at the hands of skilled salesmen.
