GAVE BODY TO SEA

Greek Poet t With the Blues Commits Suicide in a Romantic Fashion.

Stunning Gowns Are Seen This Season

In Paris: Summer To Be Gay

RIDES HORSE INTO OCEAN

Athens, June 18. A; Greek poet whom Mme. Leblane-Maeterlinck compared to Hermes for hit personal beauty, has committed suicide here under the most romantic circumstances, j. Pericles Ianopoulog, despite his success and popularity as a poet gave way to melancholia. At a banquet to

which he summoned all his friends

h eshowed them a trunkful of mam scripts that were to be destroyed. "Tomorow I am going on a Journey,' he said, as they left. The next morn

ing one of them received by post an

exquisite stutuette of a horse.

At the same time Ianopoules had

ridden out of the city to Mount Aega-

leos. On the Throne of Xerxes he gath

ered some wild flowers, out of which

he made a crown and set It on his

brow. Then he mounted his horse and

with a revolver In his hand rode down

towards the sea.

A violent storm had broken over the

country. Ianopoules, driving his spurs Into the horse's flank, urged the mad

dened beast into the foaming waters of the bay and shot himself through

the heart.

In a letter written to a relative the

poet said: .

"I am giving my dead body to the sea to cleanse. If the sea gives me

up; cast me back again."

SPY Oil DOMESTICS

Paris, June la The Paris police

have been compelled to organize

special detective brigade to watch do

mestic servants In Paris.

Information has been received at

headquarters of a thieves' organization

called the "White Apron Brigade.

By means of forged testlmonails the

members of the gang, which is sever

al hundred strong, obtain situations

In private houBes and rob their mas

ters.

A! few days ago two women who had

stolen $800 and $1,000 worth of jew

elry were arrested' by the police. One

of them a German girl of twenty-four

had already committed more than a

hundred thefts.

When out of service she lived In

an expensive flat In Paris, beautifully

furnished, in which the police nave

found a . number of valuable pictures believed to have been stolen. The woman's last alias was Marie Muller,

but she has at least eighteen others.

Wet Clothing and Lightning.

' It the clothing is wet lightning may

pass over It as a geod conductor without harming the bedy. On the other .hand, persons may be killed without harm being done to the clothing. In rare instances bodies have been

stripped naked by lightning. The cov

erings of the feet are liable to be se

riously Injured, because It Is here that

the lightning meets the greatest re

sistance in leaving the body.

BY LA VOYAGUESE. , Paris, June 17. The spring season

in Paris of 1910 has passed, and the summer season Is well along, speaking from the standpoint of fashion and society, June 30th will see the great

racing event of the year, the running of the "Grand Prix." one of the most famous horse races of the world,

which takes place here annually, while

July 3rd the postponed "flower fete"

is to be held, this year to be known as the "fete do Paris" and which is intended to celebrate the re-establish

ment of normal conditions in Paris, following the memorable flood.

Both events are to take place In the

Bois de Boulogne, the former, of

course, at the race track, "Longchamps," as It is called in France;

and the latter In the avenue known as the "Acacias," from the rows of

such trees which line this magnificent

thoroughfare on each side. Those to

whom from choice or necessity, a visit

to the races is prohibited, make a trip

each day either to the Bois itself or to the Avenue des Champs Elysees,

which is the usual route on the return from the races. Here, day after day, during the great race week (which

ends with the running of the "Grand

Prix") men, women and children sit

for hours on chairs or other seats which are placed two or three deep all along the avenue, where they watch for the passing of the fashionables

in autos or carriages.

You may form an idea of the enor

mous crowds which this Important and world-wide known event attracts

when it is said that the tremendous

attendance enables the Jockey club to

offer purses for races aggregating this

year, 1900,000. Accommodations ev

erywhere throughout the city are

premium during the famous week.

Three American women I know, who

are in Europe for the season, visited no less than ten hotels before obtain

ing accommodations, t

The "flower fete" in July Is expect

ed to outdo all efforts of previous years. The city Is to offer unusually

large prizes for the best decorated car riages of all classes including motors

In addition, prizes are to be offered for the best decorated windows on the

line of the parade.

As a result, quite probably, of the

lamentable inefficiency of the Paris telephone service, and which is re

sponsible for the prosecution of a well

known Parisian actress for having used a rather strong expletive over the

telephone, in speaking to a "central'

operator, the telephone regulations,

which it had been hoped would be revised by the officials, have been left in their customary deplorable condi

tion.

No wonder one uses strong language

In battling with telephone conditions In the French capital. It frequently

seems that one might often be unable

to find language strong enough when

seeking to obtain a telephone conntctlon In Paris. The very worst phone

service to be found in any city In the

United States, is a dream of perfection

compared to the average service in

this city.

To begin with, in sending a "call

you start in, worn to the bone by prev

ious disheartening efforts of the kind,

in giving "central" quickly (for haste

is urged on subscribers by the com

pany Itself) the number desired, which

by the way frequently runs into the

thousands, something in this fashion:

Please, Miss, give me 99667 Mont-

martre." You hear her repeat it like a streak, and at the same time she

does, aloud, a sum in mental arithme

tic at the end. to be sure she has the

number right. She repeats all the figures given In the call, and then adds them up. This Is all maddening

enough, but added to this you are

compelled to wait and wait and then

wait some more. Receiving no reply.

you give several "grinds" to the han

dle of the phone instrument, which

by the way resembles an old-fashioned coffee mill, and then thoroughly exas

perated, 6hrlek. "I am waiting," to

which "central" blandly lnquires!

vvnai iorx wnereupon you go way

back" and begin all over again.

Who could resist using rather

strong language? Yes, Paris is decid

edly "hades" when it ccmes to telephone service. One Is compelled to

feel surprised that the lunatic asyl

urns are not crowded to the doors ail through Paris as a result of this horrible telephone evil, for bad as it is in

the capital, in the provinces it is pos

itively distracting, and makes for in

sanity among that part of the public who are obliged to make use of the

Un tne united States) time saving

system.

Policemen all over the world use

TIZ. Folicemen stand on their feet

all day and know what sore, tender,

aweaty, swollen feet really mean.

They use TIZ because TIZ cures

their feet right up. It keeps feet in

perfect condition. Read what this po

liceman has to say: "I was surprised

and delighted with T I Z for tender feet. I hardly knew how te thank you enough for It. ' It's superior to powders or plasters. I can keep my feet in perfect condition. Believe in my earnest gratitude for T I Z. I am a policeman and keep on my feet all day." Emry Harrell, Austin, Texas. You never tried anything like TIZ before for your feet. It Is different from anything ever before sold. T I Z is not a powder. Powders and other foot remedies clog up the pores. TIZ draws out all poisonous exuda- . tlons which bring on soreness of the feet, and is the only remedy that does. TIZ cleans out every pore and glorifies the feet your feet. Yonll never limp again or draw up your face in pain and you'll forget about your corns, bunions and callouses. : YouH feel like a new person. TIZ is for sale at all druggists At 25c per box. or It will be sent yon direct it you wish from Walter Luther Dodge Jfe Co., Dodge Bids., Chicago,

With the lovely, warm summer days which Paris is now enjoying, the scene of that spectacle which seems to afford the greatest Interest to visitors

to the "city of light" its inhabitants.

dining and supping has shifted from

the close and stuffy restaurants of the

city proper, to the sylvan, resorts of the kind in the Bois de Boulogne,

where with a background of shimmer

ing green trees and wide spreading

emerald lawns in the foreground, are

tne world-famous outdoor restaurants,

ville, where artistically designed col

or schemes of pink salmon and green sauce; huge crimson strawberries and

creamy neansnapea cneeses, etc., are

served at the rate of a franc, or. rath

er, several francs a mouthful.

Here it is. too that one sees in all

its giory tnat cosmopolitan crowd which constitutes "tout Paris" as the

"400" here are called, and whose mem-

hers are not alone the Idle rich, but

world famed artists, authors, singers

actors, and actresses from each country of the civilized world. Every few minutes a motor dashes up and de

posits Its burden of lovely womankind

exquisitely gowned, and the beauty of whose faces rival the attractiveness

of their artistically trimmed hats.

Nothing can be smarter than the

dainty costumes of soft taffetas which

are seen in endless variety. Foulards

and veilings in all their variety are also very popular for not too dressy

occasions.

It is no longer regarded as smart to

match the parasol to the dress. Shapes

are rather small, and rounded in dome style. The handles resemble a shepherd's crook, in length, and in fact, are rather too long to be handled with ease. However, it is the style, so we must submit, and accept them, together with a number of other not too convenient requirements 'of fashion.

Latest creation by Drecoll, Paris for afternoon wear. This novel design is an extremely fine and soft lawn. Stripes of flowers in pompadour design, alternate with stripes of polka dots. The guimpe and ruffles, which finish the elbow sleeves, are of figured net. The belt is of dark red linen, studden with gilt buttons. The large hats show the dip in front, which is a feature of the summer styles, faced with, a wide band of black velvet. With a wreath of half-opened buds encircling the crown, this hat presents an exceedingly smart effect. Photo by Felix.

Tailored gowns and afternoon frocks

of taffetas, linen tusor and all that

class of materials are the proper thing

to wear; for while the number of mo

tors in use in Paris seems to increase almost over night, one might say, the trains and autb busses, which take you to the several entrances of the

Bois, are the means of transportation

for thousands of those less favored

with the "root of evil."

Glorious, delicious, attractive Paris!

Is it any wonder that womankind and mankind, from all the world over, flock to thy gates, there to see and enjoy life In its multitudinous forms as

it cannot be found elsewhere throughout the globe?

At Pre Catelan the other evening, while at dinner, I saw some most attractive lingerie gowns. One particularly was of white lawn, trimmed with valenciennes lace and that delightful English embroidery. It was, as such gowns should be, very elaborately made, with a pointed overskirt. The corsage was drapd in fichu style, with a V-shaped opening back and front, showing the pretty, rounded neck. A very wide pale blue satin sash encircled the waist, and reached to the hem behind.

They never age, because humor, kindliness, and truth never grow old. Mark Twain himself wrote a preface to this edition. Brander Matthews has written the biographical criticism of Mark Twain and his work. There are portraits of the author from photographs and paintings taken at periods when the different books were in process of writing. This edition includes his later collected writings,, such as " Eve's Diary," etc, etc

Brander Matthews says: "Mark Twain will be included in that group of writers headed by Molicre and Cervantes. With the exception of Count Tolstoi, Twain was the greatest of, recent modern writers and will be handed down to posterity through the trio of his works

'Huckleberry Finn,' 'Tom Sawyer,' and Pudd'nhead Wilson.' Twain is a greater stylist

than Stevenson finest works in
