WHO KILLED DAME COURTESY? Some women are prone to bewail the passing of chivalry. There no longer nre any gentlemen of the old school. they Insist. And on superficial glance this appears to be true, says St. I'nul Pioneer Press. Certainly in thta world of rush and hurry women are not deferred to In elevators and they on; forced to take their chances in boarding street cars. Hut, as much as we hate to say It, the fault In great measure attaches to some of the dear womn. They lament that there are no gentlemen, and then they demonstrate by their own deeds that not ail are ladles. Taking deference for granted ha j done much to dispel if not the deference Itself at least the outward and visible signs of It. Too few Atomen vouchsafe even so much as a nod to the men who open street car doors for them. Men are just as chivalrous as ever. Tut them to the test and they will demonstrate this. But most of them, resenting the new attitude some women have assumed, of anticipating chivalry, have learned to veil their true and better Impulses. Thank heaven, however, it is only some. all, women.

The boy scout movement teaches boys to play the game of life according to M. C. C. rules, and .If there are fairer laws than those we should like to know on what tables of stone or marble or board they are to be found. The best proof of the value of these rules is that boy scouts are easily recognizable even when they nre out of their uniforms. The discipline has got hold of them, says London Daily Telegraph. They have a frankness and a courage of bearing which distinguishes them from their fellows who have not rassed through the ranks of ordered comradeship. Above all, they have acquired that mysterious quality of handiness which enables them somehow to be on the spot when they are wanted, and to do the right thing at the right time, with cheerful briskness. The boy scout is one of the best hopes of the world. More power to their poles I There are still foul dragons which awn It their slaying.

Men who .o own confessions are letting them .nit of good jobs In organized baseball n mind us once more that not playiii;: v.juare doesn't work. No one supposes that everyone who tries something cruoked gets all that Is coming to him, hut how often do we find the best laid plans for not getting caught "going wrong? The baseball scandal slumbered for a year, but, now It Is out. it will take a lot of straightening before the sport-loving public has confidence in the game again. And the young men for they are all young men who played the gamblers' game find precious little sympathy, says Milwaukee Journal. The price for which they sold thmselves looks pretty small now.

Austria's finance minister says nhc la the poorest of the European nations. Austria Is having merely a 'ery common experience. She sowed the tvind In starting the World war and is now reaping the whirlwind. Sho began tho war a mighty empire and she sees Its end with herself dwindled to a fraction of her former fllzo and greatness.

Widest Departure From Season'a Styles Is Small Model Which Su&gests Spanish Headdress.

If it is the hats that arc the forerunners of the reason's fashions, asserts a fashion authority, then we need expect wo very striking new modes. The hats are picturesque, charming in line, and very becoming, but they are not decidedly novel. The widest departure from the season's styles is a small hat which, suggests the Spanish headdress. A representative model of this type has a comb of black velvet, high in the bak, with tiny yellow buttercups growing oveij it. Of course there is a frill of blr.ek lace mid a short lace veil in mantilla vfi feet. Drooping plumage promises to he more popular as a trimming thr.n the more erect angles.
