First pay strict attention to the talkers. There Is no worse breach of good form than the one young girls and young men, too, make to those others who try to amuse them than that of letting their eyes rove in search of somebody else or possibly of a mere escape. Pin your thoughts to the conversation. Do not let your wits go wandering Into the why and wherefore of the talker's dress or business. Be ready to answer any question that ma; be asked, for of course a good talker will try to engage his listeners in an exchange of ideas. Make It a point to rescue the Interest ing topic from an Inglorious death due to the Interrupting person. "You were saying that you saw," etc.. is frequent ly a little thing to bring out a good story that might otherwise go un beard. Every person can do that much A casual, relevant remark is within any one's power, and the good listener with this ability is as necessary, to a social gathering as an interesting talker. Good listeners rarely have cause for regret or humiliation, and that is much in the favor of silence. Then, too, by listening carefully and attentively you will gain a certain knowledge and valuable Information that will in time undoubtedly result in an easy, self possessed ability. to talk well. Indeed, there are many more good listeners needed in the social gatherings of our little world. This is the plea for the rarely cultivated art of keeping silence while others speak. The silent ones should re member that it Is the inveterate talker who Is considered a bore So the good listener shod Id never despair. Bedtime Hour For Guests. Until the end of time it will probably be a mooted question whether guest or -hostess should make the first move for retiring for the night When staying In a bouse for the first time this Is one of the most difficult points for a guest to decide, and it takes a great deal of tact and discernment to arrive at a correct conclusion. On the basis that a hostess orders the house and the guest conforms there is no doubt that the person whose home it is should make the first move. One who is staying In the house for the first time cannot be expected to know the habits and rules of the place, including the hour for arising, on which greatly depends that for retiring. In the summer house at country or seashore the chances are. if the host goes to town for business every day, that the whole household is up early. The hostess is certainly, as a rule, if her husband is a business man. In that case It is almost essential that they go to bed early. Logical as thi conclusion may seem, a guest fears t suggest going too early to her owii room lest she should seem to be bom' during the evening, and thus it 1 when both really would like to turn li. at a reasonable hour they and other are kept up by a desperate attempt n be polite , Facial Contortions Bad Form. A great many of our facial contor tions are due to nervousness, just a: we owe to the same cause equally ob noxious habits of tapping with tb. foot and handling small objects whirl happen to be within reach of rest lew-' fingers. All of these annoying little ha bit -are due to a lack of repose and lack u training lo early youth to acquire coi. trol of the nerves. .. So unconscious are the perpetrator of these tricks that hey will actual!;

If you are puzzled about a questiou of etiquette and bare not 'time to consult an older or more experienced friend or relative apply the (.olden Rule 1 do as you would be done by for tbk will almost always bring you out os your difficulty with flying colors. Tut expression "a nature's gentleman" l often applied to some simple minded and unsophisticated man who is tbu guided, for, whether we be gentle os simple, the truest good breeding 1.shown by our care for the feelings ol others. The real "great lady" Is a.' thoughtful and considerate for tbosf beneath ber in social position as she would be for royalty, though she would show her thought In a different fashion, and since we may all be "queens by love" it behooves us to be royally courteous and considerate. The brusque, rough woman who confounds a pleasant manner of speaking with insincerity is greatly to be pitied, for she hat thrown away her scepter and lost bet crown. A THIRD SCANDAL : IS TO BE PROBED BY THE CONGRESS (Continued From Page One.) sjon from several other legislators, among whom were Michael S. Link, of Mitchell, and H. J. C. Beckemeyer, of Carlyle. They told the story of how they had been bribed to vote for Lorimer and of how the money for their votes had been paid to them . by Browne. Into this whole mess of alleged corruption came stories of extensive bribery in securing the passage of certain laws and grafting contracts and tho same men who were mixed up in the Lorimer bribery scandal were also connected with the other charges of corruption. In fact the evidence developed by investigations,, conducted independently by State's Attorney Burke, of ' Sangamon county, and State's Attorney Wayman, of Cook county, tend to show that there was a "bribery ring" in existence at the state capltol of Illinois which devided corruption money and had this money gathered together in "jack pots" bo that it could be apportioned equally between the bribe takers. White, the accuser of Browne, admits that he was a member of this ring and has told of how he met five other state representatives in St. Louis and of bow one "Jack pot" divided at the Southern hotel there, netted each member 1900. The obedience of the bribe takers to the leaders of the corruptionists in the

The carelessness of wealthy persons with their Jewelry is sometimes beyond belief and it is not surprising that so many of them lose their gems, especially when traveling. What is even more surprising, is the undeserved and really phenomenal luck of , these persons, whose lost treasures are in most cases recovered in some way. The other day two wealthy women lost a bag with jewels valued at several thousand dollars, while riding around in a cab at Asbury Park. When they discovered their loss they made a search for the cab and located it. On the floor of the cab was found the bag, dirty from the muddy feet of several passengers who had ridden in the vehicle after the two women had-used it, but containing the jewels aU intact. The common council of Tonkers, by a vote of 8 to 1, adopted an ordinance the other day, which establishes the curfew in Tonkers and compels all children under the age of 16 years to leave the streets by 10 o'clock every night. The ordinance places the responsibility upon the parents and makes all boys and girls who violate it subject to arrest. The only member who spoke and voted against the ordinance was the oldest member of the council and father of a large family. Such an ordinance would undoubtedly be a boon tofew York City, but there is not much prospect of ever getting one through the New York City counciL Two little boys and a little girl, whose parents are neighbors In Brownsville, a part of Brooklyn, wandered to the outskirts of that' sparsely settled district to pick flowers. In the afternoon one of the boys came home and informed his father that the little girl had fallen into a sewer. When it became known that the girl had met with an acident, more than a hundred persons votunteered to search for the child's body. Armed .with ropes and ladders the searchers started for the scene of the alleged accident, the boy who had brought the news, leading them. He pointed out the open manhole of a sewer into which, be asserted, thte girl had fallen. Reinforced by a dozen men of police reserves, twenty volunteers searched In the sewer for seevral hours. buL found no trace of the girt. Several of the men were overcome by the noxious gases in the sewer and were revived with considerable difficulty. 'After four hours bad been: spent in' this fruitless search some one went to the bouse of the girl's parents to inform them of the result of the efforts. To his greatest surprise he learned that the girl had safely arrived home several hours ag4nd was soundly asleep In her bed. What happened to the little boy, the? author of that cruel hoax, is another story. ' -

MRS. CHANLER NEE LERI. MME. CAVAlegislature was complete, according to White. He says they would have voted for anyone for senator and for any corrupt measure at a word from the "bosses." He declared that the "jack pot" money in St. Louis was distributed by Representative Robert E. Wilson, of Chicago, a friend of Browne. When the charges were made public they were met by an indignant denial on the part of Senator Lorimer and while the pot was boilins over he announced that he wquld make a, public reply to his accusers on the floor of the Iflhited States senate. He did so, and in a speech. 15,000 words long, went on to state that the charges were not only lies but that they were the outgrowth ' of enmity borne against him by the Chicago Tribune, Governor Deneen and several political enemies. He declared that the Tribune had paid White to purjure himself and swear to false affidavits regarding the alleged bribery and that the" reason the Tribune had done this was because he refused to pay political homage to the proprietors and editors of that paper. " Friends of Senator Lorimer say that the defense he will introduce before the senate committee wiii follow close ly the lines he laid down in his speech to the senate body when answering publicly the charges made that his seat had been bought. In making his public defense Sena tor Lorimer declared that Governor Deneen was angry at him because he would not enter into the governor's schemes for the handling of the funds to build a "deep waterway" and that on the night before the charges of bribery were published the governor was seen coming out of the Tribune offive. He also made a strong point of the integrity of Lee O'Neil Browne, and said that he was a God-fearing man and believed Implicity in the Bible, for Browne himself had told him of this belief. He declared that White was a blackmailer, pure and simple, and had simply tried to get money from him and had been refused. Further than this the senator con tended that White's story was sprung at a time when its evident purpose was to injure a bank and trust com pany that he had established in Chi cago, and that it was printed at a time when it would do him the most harm just at the time the companies were throwing open their doors for business. He declared that the Tribune officials had threatened to wreck these banks if he dared to start them. No mention was ever" made by any witness of Senator Lorimer's direct connection with the bribery charges! His name was brought into the matter solely through the statement that
