HOW NOVELIST SPENDS CASH
Sir Jamt Barrio Evidently On ol
Those Who Believe In "Doing
Good by Stealth.''
Sir .Tuiihs ISnrrie who wrote "My
Lady Nicotine" and so iniiny of the
world's most beautiful stories, was an
Intimate friend of the heroic explorer
.Scott, who perished in the Antarctic
after reaching the South pole. The
author believed in the sailor and
helied to finance his last tragic dash
for the South pole. When his effects
were examined amid the frigid and
ghastly Antarctic stillness, the relief
party that arrived too late found a
letter for Itarrie among the dead
man's effects. Only Itarrie knew
what It unfolded. Since that time he
has been a second father to the or
phaned boy. Speaking of little Peter
Scott, the author of "Peter Pan" said,
"That little chap has given me a hard
task. I must send him a new poemor
a freshly conceived fairy tale every
week." One of P.airie's favorite
adopted sons, the original of David In
"The Little White Jiird," was killed In
action near Ypres. As u memorial to
li I m Karrie established and supported
a hospital In Prance until the end of
the wur. Ills name was never asso
ciated with It and hardly a dozen
people In England knew of this bene
faction. ALWAYS STUDYING THE SKY
Work Has Been Made Much Easier
Since the Introduction of Celes
tial Photography.
There continues the discovery of as
teroids or minor planets, especially
with the aid afforded by celestial
photography. Among a vast multitude
of .stars crowding on a photographic
plate one, perhaps, will lie seen to
have drawn a short, thin line on the
plate during ils hours of exposure.
The astronomer knows at mice that
It is either an asteroid or a comet.
Subsequent observations soon decide
Ihe point. Only the more Interesting
ones are afterward observed willi at
tention, but once discovered they can
not be Ignored, and the rapid growth
of the flock becomes an embarrass
ment. Eros, which at times approaches the
earth nearer than any other regular
member of the solar system except the
moon, and Asteroid No. fiHri, which at
aphelion Is more distant than Jupiter,
as far as their orbits are concerned,
remain the most Interesting members
of the entire group and are kept under
constant observation whenever cir
cumstances permit.
Medical Efficiency.
Tr. I.eroy ('. ('rummer of Omaha at
tended the medical convention in Ibis
city, lie was describing the 100 per
cent cllicicncy methods In vogue
among I lie newer Western physicians.
"A lull lent of mine visited one of
lliese doctors," he said. "After he
si k bonds wllh Ihe chief he turned
him over to an assistant, who took his
history. Next lie was hustled into the
olliee of an X-ray spociallsl. From
there he passed to a laboratory tech
nician, then to a blond expert, and
liuully to Ihe nerve clinic.
"W hen lie returned to the chief line
tor he was curtly told die pile of re
ports showed Hull I here was nothing
Ihe mailer with him."
"How about my bill?" queried (he
pallent.
"On. yrni must see my accountant
for Ihul," replied the doctor, ushering
I ll III out.
"Well, really, doctor, I should like
to pay yon personally," replied the pa
tient, "for then I would have the satis
faction of knowiii!.; thai you did at
least one thing In my case." Philadel
phia liiilletiu.
The Conquering Yesser.
"After lli'ieen years of incessant guer
rilla warfare, be had connuereil his
wife; there was something in ihe num
ber of 'yes's' willi which he could poi
son a coiiversal inti that hail won him
(he vlclory. 'Yes--yes - yes - yes,' he

Elephants Invade Belgium Congo.
It Is reported that herds of ele
phants have Invaded the region of
Lake Leopold, In the Itelglan Congo,
and are laying waste tins plantations
there, so that food supplies are endan
gered. The natives refuse to hunt the
elephants, nS they do not share the
proceeds of Hie hunting, and people
are deserting many villages.
No doubt In Pliocene and early
Pleistocene times primitive man must
have had many pitched battles with
the elephant family; but It is rather
strange to think that even in ihe
Twentieth century there are elephants
numerous enough and enterprising
enough to sack villages Riul desiwojr
plantations. It sounds as if they were
becoming civilized.

and sentimentality over the author of

MORE THAN ONE GOOD POINT
Uncle Jack Wanted the Fine Qualities
of Hit Dog to Be Thoroughly
Understood.
"Out In Kansas there used to be an
old fellow named Uncle Jack, and he
had a dog," runs the story told by Vic
tor Murdock of the federal trade com
mission. "If. was not a highly bred
dog, but it was u wonder at catching
nils. Moreover, Uncle Jack was fond
of the dog. Uncle Jack had few oilier
inliinutes because of a disposition to
be rather savage in his conversation.
He imagined that half the people he
met were antagonistic toward him, and
this made hint not any too companion
able. So It was just as well that he
had a warm friend in the dog.
"One night us he and the dog
were passing a corner grocery where
everybody loafed, two or three by
standers sought to make a hit. with
Uncle Jack by complimenting his dog.
"'That's certainly a line little dog of
Uncle Jack's,' remarked one of the
bystanders.
" 'Yes, I don't suppose there's a bet
ter dog anywhere,' said another.
"Uncle Jack turned and glared at the
bunch and hurled this :
" 'Ye think lie's Just good for catch
In' rats, eh? Well, I'll have ye know
lie's just as good on mice ye goldarn
fools.' "
VAIN UNTIL WELL INTO AGE
Gray-Haired Men Far More Particular
About Their Clothes Than
Are the Young.
Somehow, when friend husband
doesn't seem to look right in any of
the suits the patient clerk hauls forth,
wives are apt to forget their unites
are no longer the youthful swain who
cuine a-courtin' ten years or more
ago.
Kven though lie may affect the
younger models and gayer checks or
stripes, the bulging waist, the doubled
chin and the ever-so-slight droop of
the shoulders have sadly changed the
Original Apollonian lines which the
fond wife still recognizes In her mate.
Ilcady mades, fashioned on perfect
wooden models, have a way of ac
centuating the middle-aged wearer's
defects. Therefore, the tailor is called
pon to exercise his craftiness by prac
tk'ltij; deceptions to conceal the ugly
faults, says the New York Sun.
The narrow double-breasted model
does much to bide an unsightly abdo
men. A bit of cotton will straighten
the drooping shoulders, but the double
chin Is there to stay; na "trick of the
trade" will conceal it. That is why
a tailor will tell yon that the gray
haired man la fussier about his
clothes than the young chap.

pDITH CRANTOUD and her estlma
ble parents had been big game
hunting In the social jungles of New
York for three seasons without bring
ing down the quarry. Edith, from the
time she had begun to picture her fu
ture and under the loving tutelage of
her parents she began very young
had never looked forward to anything
less gilded than a millionaire for a
husband.
In her fourth season Edith Cranford
succeeded ; this Diana of the Four Hun
dred brought down her millionaire. And
the "kill" had been worth all the effort
and the heart-breaking delay. Warren
Champlain was thirty years old, and
w as encumbered with no near relatives,
was good-looking and, for a man of
millions, remarkably Intelligent and
well educated. Father and Mother
Cranford, when they heard the news,
were Jubilant. But over Edith there
soon stole a curious irritable indiffer
ence. When finally she announced that
she would not marry Warren Chaiia
plain, after all, Father and Mother
Cranford were driven into a sort of
frenzy. But neither tears, hysterics,
threats nor pleadings would move
Edith. She wrote Warren a calm, brief
note telling him that they "had both
been mistaken" and that "all must be
considered over between them." j
Now Warren refused to be put off
with a few words written on the latest
style of note paper. He demanded an
interview with Edith, but she would
not see him and, after several stormy
scenes with her parents, she was
packed off to her great-aunt Cynthia,
who had a country place in a retired
corner of New Hampshire.
Warren C'hainplain had little difficul
ty in finding out the place of Edith's
retreat and one "all golden afternoon"
he came strolling up the driveway that
led to Miss Cynthia Van Buskirk's
summer home. That ancient and wise
spinster had, since the arrival of her
niece, been giving her much sound ad
vice. As Edith sat on the piazza she
was turning over in her mind her
aunt's words of wisdom. She heard
some one approaching, raised her eyes
and there stood the central figure In
her thought before her in person .
"You?" she cried, "why "
"Yes, why?" lie echoed. "That la
Just what I have come to find out." He
took a chair beside her and imprisoned
one of her hands in his. She resisted
but not strenuously. "Tell me, Edith,"
he said, "why have you broken with
me? Is it because you do not love me?"
The girl, exerting all her self-control,
said evenly: "No; it is because I
do love you that I cannot marry you.
You know what people say of me
that I pursued you on account of your
money. And they speak the trutlu
And then when I found I really loved
yon for yourself oh, can't you under
stand? How could I marry n man I
love under such circumstances? There
have I sufficiently humbled myself?
Do you despise me enough now to go
on your way and forget that such a
creature as I ever existed?"
Warren actually smiled and Edith,
with an angry Hush, rose as If to go.
"No, no," he said ; "sit down here, you
Illogical little person, and listen to
reason. If you laid a trap for me, I
walked into it with my eyes open.
Don't you suppose there were plenty
of people to warn me? I went in
eagerly and, Edith, I -want to stay
there. Isn't it just as wicked to refuse
to marry a man whom you love, and
who loves you, because of his money as
It would be to marry a man because of
his money whom you don't love?"
"Well, yes, I suppose so," faltered
Edith. "At least, that is what Aunt
Cynthia says."
"Admirable and perspicacious wom
an," said Warren. "Take me to her."
"Well," said Miss Cynthia, when the
presentation had been made,, "have
you young folks settled everything?
Have you brought this morbid young
lady to reason, Mr. Champlain?"
"Partially," replied Warren, "and I
rely upon her estimable aunt to com
plete the cure."
"Hut what will people say?" objected
Edith.
"Say?" cried Miss Cynthia. "They
can't say much more tliun they have
said already. And who are you, pray,
anyway, that you should begrudge the
ten-tables of New York a pleasing
piece of malicious gossip?"
"But my self-respect " objected
Edith.
"Fiddledee!" exclaimed Miss Cyn
thia, "of ull my aggravating relatives
and they iire all aggravating I be
lieve you are the most aggravating."
Warren turned to E-Uli and said,
calmly and sternly: "E;'.!;h, what you
call your self resivct is. in thH In
stance, merely an obstinate pride
which, if persisted in, will wreck two
lives."
"Quite right." agreed the venerable
spinster. "There let us have no more
nonsense. You two run out on th
piazza and settle on the wedding day."
When Miss Van Busk Irk spoke In
that tone she was accustomed to beig
obeyed and this occasion was no i
cent ton to the rule.

Two Virginia darkles were huntlnp
