Consequently Automobile Par
ties to the City Are Growing Less in Number. ROADS IN BAD CONDITION. Dust, Dust, Dust, everywhere! This is the familiar expression of the touring autoists that pass through the city each day. In many places along the road the dust is two and three Inches thick and for this reason the automobile parties axe dwindling in number. One of the automobilists that passed through the city earlier in the season states that traveling was good then, but now with the heavy dust, motoring has lost its charm to some degree. Farmers are not the only people hoping for rain. The touring cars skid as much In the dust as they io in mud so that the travel is very slow now. The slight pleasure of riding in a cloud of dust Is known to every person who has ever had the experience. at Macey, Indiana, in the northern part of the state.

The average American man Is so much more polite, agreeable and considerate to the average woman that all other men seem- rough and indifferent by comparison. In this department if in no other the American man has no rival. He Is the best mannered creature in the world to the casual human bt?!ng especially female human being he brushes elbows with in the course of the day's march. He doesn't nse half as many "Thank yous" as the French or tow and smile so much, but he will give himself trouble to open doors, to hail carriages, to get up and offer his seat in omnibuses, to help beparceled women on to trains and hold the baby. while the mother helps off the rest of her offspring. New York World. Mmtarhe Versus Mailc. Anton Rubinstein had this to say In reference to women artists: T think ladies ought never to study munic as an art. At least they ought not to take up the time of teachers who are able to teach and make true artists. And I will tell you why. There is no question but there are twenty musical ladies to one musical man, and my own experience is that they learn more quickly, have more poetry and, in fact, are more diligent pupils than men. But what is the invariable result? When a young lady has become a perfect artist some handsome mustache comes along, and she chooses the handsome mustache in prererence to art." The Misguided Friend. - De Chappie If there's any one nuisance I hate more than another it's a fellow who is always going around introducing ieople. There's Goodheart, for instance.

? T7v MODERN FOOTBALL, It Cornea From the Florentines, Who Got It From Greece. Did modern football, the Rugby game, travel to England from the Italy of the renaissance and does its history reach back to ancient Greece? A recent writer says: "Probably not more than a few votaries of Rugby football are aware that we have to thank Florentine athletes for the invention of the game and for Its introduction into Great Britain. . Rugby school was founded somewhere about 1567. It was one of the direct results of what has been called the Florentine or Tuscan fever in England, which set in late in the Italian renaissance. Not only did men of letters come over and settle in England's centers of learning and create others, but many Florentines versed in the theory and practice of polite culture came as well. The game of il calclo came to Florence by way of Greece. Something of the sort had figured among the less important games at Olympia. The principal Florentine ground was the Tiazza di Santa Croce, where upon the wall of the Palazzo Giulio Parrigi is still to be seen the disk from which the line dividing the ground v.as drawn across the open square. The ball was of leather, containing au Inflated bladder, andapparently was the exact size, weight and shape of the Rugby ball of today. "II calclo consisted of a friendly contest between two equal sides of players called schiera azzura and schiera rossa blues and reds. The number of players varied according to the size of the ground or the importance of the encounter. In the Piazza di Santa Croce the sides were twenty to twenty-seven strong, while on the public open sports ground at Peretola they totaled as many aa sixty each. Originally the players were required to be of noble or gentle blood or such as had gained distinction and rank In the profession of arms. Each man had to be of unblemished reputation and of graceful figure and possessed of accomplished manners. "In addition to the actual players were presidents, standard bearers. Judges, an umpire, pages and other officials, all 'without reproach, worthy of the city and courteous In manner.' The costumes of the players were tight fitting drawers and tunica of silk, with feathered caps, all richly embroidered In gold and silver. Leather shoes were worn. The teams were divided Into four classes: Forwards, whose places were near the dividing line and whose work was to keep the ball In play; halfbacks, stationed behind the, forwards, in order to return the ball to play; three-quarter backs, who were strong kickers and played straight on the ball, and goal keepers, placed at the flags, or boundary, to stop the ball passing." Malagasy Etiquette. A French conjurer many years ago during a performance at the court of Madagascar asked the queen through an interpreter if she would taste a glass of wine. On her refusal the con jurer, with simulated anger, emptiet the glass over her, and the content dropped in the shape of a rose into ho: majesty's lap. The court functionaries were bo indignant at this proceeding that they jumped up from their seats, insisted upon the queen leaving the apartment and charged the performer with high treason. The unfortunate man had to be protected by the native troops from the fury of the populace and was compelled to leave the capital before daybreak. CARE OF BOOKS. Marginal notes are usually superfluous and undesirable. Corners should not be turned down or leaves folded in halves. Exposing books to heat or strong sunlight warps the binding. Never bend back the covers of a book, but keep them both level. Do not turn a book on lta face or place any weight on an open book. , Never open a large book from the ends or cover, but from the center. Bookcases should not be placed against outside walls on account of the probable dampness. A blunt knife of ivory, wood or metal should be used for cutting new books, not a sharp Instrument. If any liquid be spilt on a book, wipe it off at once gentiy with a soft cloth or absorb it with blotting paper. Do not dry It by a fire. Dragging a book out from the shelf by the binding at the top is hurtful. If books are wedged in too tightly in a case they become shabby. "ITle KanrLsc Ut Life.

J V. f MYSTERIOUS PEOPLE. The Ahmoim Importance and Secretive Air Ther ACTcot. Many people assume certain mm: ners as they assume certain clothe, and change these maimers more dom than they change their clothe Some think it ingratiating to be perky Others think it more graceful to l drooping and melancholy, to gaze wist fully, walk mournfully and sit an if before the baked meau of a funeral feast. But of all the people who indulge in travesty I think I get most amusement out of the mysterious people. Bated, forever bated, is the breath of the mysterious person. Directly he comes into the room you are conscious of the presence of the unutterable and know that it will speedily be uttered into your most private ear. When he speaks to you he "takes you aside," so that none other may know that he is telling you that the weather Is damp and that there is a deal of influenza about. As he discusses with you bucL dreadful subjects as the price of? hobnailed boots, the fluctuations of stocks and the economies of the administration his head approaches yours, his lips pout secretively, his eyes glance round warily to make sure that no one is within earshot to betray him and you. The gallows is surely in his memory. He wishes to avoid it; he wisheskindly wretch to save you from it also. Meet him halfway. It is such fun to do that. He responds sensitive ly to the slightest mysterious encour agement and thinks be is impressing you and that you believe him to be a strange and remarkable personage and that you will go away and say: "Glad I met John Smith. Interesting man. Not every day you come across a man like that." Many women are mysterious. Indeed, I have met mare mysterious women than mysterious men. The mysterious woman is often small, but her hats are large, plumed like a hearse and generally black as night. Pale is her face and languid her manner. She tries to look consumptive and succeeds surprisingly often. As a rule, ahe has little to say, but says it in such an awful manner that it takes on a fictitious importance and for the moment appears to be impressive. Think over your acquaintances and friends. Are Dot some of them mysterious, and are not they highly considered? Are not they called "interesting" on that account? There are many spurious things in the social world, but few things are more spurious than that reputation for being Interesting which is gained by the mysterious manner. And half of the world at least is tricked, for everyday perklness Is called brilliance, mystery wisdom, assurance greatness and the puppet in the mask a giant in the sunshine.

GROWS HAIR and we can PROVE IT! A lady from Minnesota writes: "As a result of astn? Danderine, my hair is close to five feet in length." Beautiful Hair at Small Cost HAIR troubles, like many other diseases, hire been wrongly diagnosed and altogether misunderstood. The hair itself is not the thing: to be treated, for the reason that it is simply a product of the scalp and wholly dependent upon its action. The scalp is the very soil in which the hair is produced, nurtnred and grown, and it alone shoe Id receive the attention if results are to be expected. It would do no earthly good to treat the stem of a plant with a view of making it zrow and become more beautiful the soil in which the plaet grrows must be attended to. Therefore, the scalp in wnich the h nr grows must receive the attention if you are to expect it to grow and become more beautiful. Loss of hair is caused by the scalp drying Bp. or losing its supply of moisture or nutriment; when baldness occurs the scalp has simply lost aU its nourishment, leaving nothing for the hair to feed upon a plant or even a tree would die tinder similar conditions.) The natural thing to 3o in either case, is to feed and replenish the soil or scalp as the case may be, and your crop will grow and multiply as nature intended it should. Knowlton'a Oanderine haa a most wonder ful effect upon the hair (lands and tissues of the scalp. It is the only remedy foe the hair ever discovered that is similar to the natural hair foods or liquids of the scalp. It penetrates the pores quickly and the hair soon shows the effects of its wonderfully exhilarating and life-producing qualities. One 2S-cent bottle-is enough to convince yoa of Its great worth as a hair growing and hair beaut, tying remedy try it and see for yourself.

just about as man does. A bear ht his boundaries, beyond which his feU low bear does not trespass with iaw punity; the wild rabbit you see on your lawn in the moonlight Is the same innocent little creature you have been e Ing every night all the summer time, and even the robin that gathers th early worm for his breakfast from you garden will tbow fight when another comes marauding on his preserve. Nor does this last a year only, for there Is good evidence that the same bird will come back to the claim It staked off the year previous. ' The Rat. No place Is sacred to the rat. From a sleeping man to an elephant there Is nothing which he will not eat. Rata have eaten their way-through a live pig and bitten off the legs of living birds. Some years ago the keepers of the Loudon zoological gardens could not understand what made the elephants so restless, so irueasy on their . feet. Investigation showed that at night the rats came out and gnawed off the thick skin growing about the nails on the monsters' feet. Apparently they must bave fancied the bom of the rhinoceros, too, for regularly the keepers used to find flattened rat where the rhinoceros had been lying. A Queer 1'anillr. Little Charlie was very fond or watching his mother dress. One day when she was brushing her hair he exclaimed, "Mamma, why does your hair snap so?" "Because there la much electricity in it, she replied. Charlie sat looking at her for a few moments very thoughtfully and then he could contain himself no longer, when ho burst out with: "What a queer family we must bet Grandma has gas in her stomach and you have electricity in your hair." The Prraent Moment. The mill cannot grind with the water that is past. As little can It trrlnd with what Is to come. It can grind only with what is passing through it. W can make no use of time past. As little use can we make of time to come. We can make tue only of the passing moment. OPTOMETRY Derived frt., 2 Greek wo n Briefly, it wrong eyes. We do the work scientifically.
