"Did you ever notice how much
better men's gloves look than wom
en's?" asks a writer in the New York
&imes. "Go into any public convey
ance and look at the gloves of the
passengers and you will be impressed
by the superior condition of those
worn by men. Two-thirds of the
women you meet cover their hands
with suedes and dogskinB that are
shockingly soiled and worn. It is not
only women of generally shabby ap
pearance who are guilty of wornout
finger tips and ragged seams; many
who are otherwise well-groomed and
who could afford to put on a fresh
pair of gloves every day are equally
culpable. Men would be ashamed to
go on the street wearing such dis
reputable things, but women flaunt
them unblushingly."
"That sweeping condemnation is
unfair," protested the woman. "The
condition is easily explained. Women
wear their gloves much more than
men and besides it is awfully destruc
tive to finger tips to dig around in
purses for change and samples and
to handle candy, to turn over books
and to examine dry goods."
"Now you have jumped the sub
ject," said the man. "I am not talk
ing about cause, I am talking about
effect. The majority of men certain
ly do wear better gloves than the
majority of women. You cannot
deny that."
"That Is true," the woman admit
ted. "I cannot deny It; they can bet
ter afford It also."

Many men have the telegraphing
habit, a? others have the telephoning
habit. They send "a wire" with and
without provocation. Even where time ]
is not an object, and a letter would do
much more good, they call for a blank
and scratch off 20 or 40 words, says the
New York Press. There is a young
lawyer here whose career has been
greatly accelerated by a judicious em
ployment of the telegraph. In some
way he always manages to receive two
or three messages wherever hW hap

TRAINING OF A SALESLADY.
??at* Point* That Are Essential to
Her Pojntbuitjr with Her
Employer.
The business education of shop
girls is continually stimulated by
means of lectures given by the
buyer, who is the real boss, says Les
lie's Monthly. "Try," he says, "to
make your customer take the goods
with her, to avoid deliveries; but
don't carry this out too strictly, for
if your customer is the right sort
it is well to accommodate her."
"Try to have as few C. 0. D. sales
as possible," is a phrase frequently
dinned into our ears. "Try to sell
hard selling goods," is another fre
quent remark of the buyer. Each
department is under supervision of
a buyer, who not only buys the
goods, but also sees that the girls sell
them. At the end of the season, if
any particular department is not a
success, that department may be
abolished, and the buyer will be out
of a job. He is, therefore, very anx
ious to get rid of the goods, par
ticularly of the hard selling ones ?
more anxious, perhaps, than the firm
Itself.
IN A CLASS BY HIMSELF.
Cananal Precaution Taken by a Man
Who Thought He Might Torn
Dp Hlulag.
"I suppose eveTy trade has peculiar
customers," said the head man in a big
retail shoe house, relates the New YoTk
Sun. "I had one inhere a few momenta
ago who wanted buttoned shoes.
Nothing particularly strange in that
?we have 'em, but after he had tried
on several pairs and none just suited, I
suggested that we might please him ini
lace shoes.
"He shook his head and put up his
hands.
" 'Excuse me,' he said, 'wouldn't wear
lace shoes if you gave me every pair
in your house. Did you ever notice?'
he continued, 'that every man or wom
an reported1 to thie police as missing is
described as wearing lace shoes when
last seen?'
"I had never noticed it, but this man
assured me that it was so. I asked him
if he expected to turn up missing. He
Baid1 he might, and if he did he wanted
the description of himself to be a little
different from the stereotyped one.
"That was his notion, and. it seemed)
to be fixed, for he went out."
Blake* More Reader*.
The educational side of rural free
delivery comes out clearly in the sta
tistics of one western route, on which
there are 109 mail boxes. When the
route was established the number of
daily papers taken in the district was
five. Now the number is 65, and most
of the papers come from sua or the
ether of two large ciUeq* ,
SKUNK MEAT PALATABLE. '
?o Sax Bnntera Who Have Partakes
of It Without Knowing What
They Were Hating*
The intrinsic value of the useful I
skunk does not necessarily end when
his pelt is stripped. Sometimes, by (
those who are used to him and his i
ways, he is eaten like a rabbit or a
squirrel or any other animal which
comes within the category of game.
This may seem improbable to the
reader whose acquaintance with the
skunk is confined for the most part
tohis reputation, but the men who have
tasted the flesh of the animal declare
that it is as tender as young chicken,
as full flavored as duck, juicy as goose
and reminiscent as rabbit, especially
when served up in a steaming potpie
with a crust and much gravy, says the
New York Tribune.
To say that anybody makes a prac
tice of devouring skunk in the season
of his taking would be an exaggera
tion, but it is a fact that many trap
pers do not hesitate to use his skinned
body for food, and find it palatable,
too. As nearly every farmer in Yates
county is a skunk hunter during the
winter* the number of carcasses that
jo into the stewpan rather than the
snowdrift may be imagined. It is hard
to get any of them to admit right out
?.hat they eat skunk frequently, but it
s a geuerally admitted fact that the
most numerous body of skunk epicures
in the world are to be found within the
oorders of Yates county. One old trap
per had this to say on the subject:
"I have eaten skunks, and I don't
make no bones of saying so. I don't
do it regular, any more than a hunter
eats ducks or rabbits every day of the
week, but an occasional skunk, well
cooked and served proper, is a dish that
one has only got to try to like. I was
broke in on it without knowing what
I was eating. If I had been told I sup
pose they couldn't have hired me to
touch the stuff. As it was, I was helped
to a dish.of steaming potpie, and 1
cleaned it up and asked for more. I
thought it was rabbit. When they told
me what I had been eating I'll admit
it made me feel mighty oneasy in the
regions of my stomach, but the flavor
of the durned stuff got into my tongue,
and the next time I trapped a skunk
1 cleaned it careful and gave it to the
ole woman to cook into a potpie. Tole
her it was rabbit, and dinged if she
didn't like it. She thinks they're rab
bits now whenever 1 bring 'em home.
The great thing in dressing them is to
be careful an' not git any of the scent
on the meat, for if you do it's all off
for a potpie."
Another expert with gun and trap
said that he had frequently eaten
skunks and also woodchucks. The j
former, he said, were a good deal like
the black meat of tender chickens, al
though sometimes he had tasted them
when the flavor was more like that of
a duck. The woodchuck, he said, was
like a cross between pork and goose,
very fat, juicy and tender. The only
way to cook the skunk, he observed,
was to stew it in a potpie. Like rab
bit, it did not seem to take well to fry
ing or broiling.
THE THICKEST OF FOGS.
It Was Cat Up Into Block* and Used
in the Construction of
Cellar Walls.
"Speaking of fog," the Major said,
according to the New York Sun, "you
have some tol'able thick fogs around
here all right ? that fog you had here
on Tuesday, for instance, certainly
was a snifterino, but really that was
only a light, thin haze as compared
with some fogs I've seen.
"Why, say, when I was living in West
Slabbington, Ark., we had a fog settle
down on us there once that was so
thick you could not cut it with an ax.
Oh! of course, I don't mean that liter
ally. You could have chopped it with
an ax, but not easily, ds one man dis
covered who had a serious reason for
wanting to find out.
"This man was just then getting out
rock for the foundation of a house he
was building, and it occurred to him
when that fog settled down that he
might get out blocks of fog that would
do just as well as stone, and that he
could get them in any shape he wanted
with far less trouble. Then it was that
he tried chopping out blocks of the fog
with an ax, but found that was too
hard work, and so went to getting 'em
out with steel wedges and sledge ham
mers, he and his hired man working
as fast as they could, because they
knew very well that that fog quarry
would not stay there forever.
"They got out fog blocks enough for
the whole cellar, including strips for
caps and sills of all the cellar windows,
and built the walls of them. And you
can get some idea of how dense that
fog was when I tell you that those
cellar walls, laid of blocks of it 43
years ago, were still standing the last
time I visited West Slabbington, and
the man that built 'em was still living
in the house, hale and hearty.
"And the walls were not only stand
ing, they were in good condition as
.ever ? all but the window caps. These
had finally bent and sagged a little in
the middle, and the owner told me that
he h^d replaced them with stone caps;
but the fog walls were all right still,
and the owner said that he believed
those caps would have stood all right,
too, if he'd only cut 'em just a little
thicker.
"Oh, yes; that was a thick fog we had
here last Tuesday, all right, but very
thin and watery compared with that
one I'm telling you about that we had
in West Slabbington, Ark."

KAISER'S BANDLESS BALL.
Paice In tihe German Ro;?l Caatla
That Went On WIthoat the
Customary Manic.
When a noble and brilliant gather^
Ing had come together in the whit*
ball of the royal castle for the sec
ond rehearsal of the las-t ball and the
dancing was about to begin silence fell
upon the ladies and their cavaliers
and consternation was depicted in the
faces of all, says the London 1 )aily
Telegraph. It seems that the prince*,
princesses and other representative*
of rank and fashion had taken up the
positions assigned to them for the
minuet, when the kaiser and' kaiserin
arrived and entered the neighboring
apartment. Then the signal was given
for the dance, but it elicited' no re?
spoiuse. On inquiry it was found thai
the band of the Guards, which should
have been on the spot, had not ar
rived. Some one ran to the telephone
called up the band director, and
learned that he had been mistakenly
ordered to come on the following day
On learning than he was wanted at
once, he dispatched express, messen
gers for his musicians and drove ovei
himself in a cab. taking with him/ the
fiddle which he had formerly received
as a present from the emperor. The
dance in the palace now began to the
strains of a solitary violin; somewhat
later on the trombone arrived, but
found he could not well chime in with
the fiddler, but the flutist was soon
on the scene, and by the time the 1
minuet was over two-thirds of the or
chestra were jn their places. The em
presses' gavotte was danced to the
music of a full orchestra.
HOW ANIMALS ACT AT FIRES.
Not All of Them Show Fear, Altfhoosh
the Majority Do Not like
Flame*.
Most animals are afraid of fire and
will fly from it in. terror. To othen
theTe is a fascination about a flame
and they will walk into it even though
tortured by the heat, says the Chicago
Chronicle. Some firemen were talking
the other day about the conduct of ani
mals during a fire. A horse in a burn
ing stable, they agreed, was wild with
fear, but a dog wasi as cool in a fire at
at any other time. A dog, they said,
keeps his nose down to the floor, where
the air is purest, and sets himself calm
ly to finding his way out. Cats in fire* j
howl piteously. They hide their facet (
from the light and crouch in corners j
When their rescuer lifts them they j
are as a rule quite docile and subdued
never biting or scratching. Birds>seem
to be hypnotized by Are and keep per
fectly still; even the loquacious parrot
In a fire has nothing to say. Cows, like
dogs, do not show alarm. They are
easy to lead forth and often find theii
way out of themselves. Rodents seem
never to have any difficulty in escaping
from fires. The men said that in all
their experience they had. never come
upon the burned skeleton of a rat or a
mouse.
CHURCH GETS WINNINGS.
Poker Game Played by Philadelphia
Hen of Wealth Benefits Re?
llgioo* Came.
There are five men of wealth and
prominence closely identified with a
certain uptown church who met onct !
a week t o play poker. All are men well
along in years and all have never lost
their love for the great American game
of draw. They realize, says the Phdla?
delphia Record, that it would! be incom
patible with their positions as pillart
of the church to gamble, and yet the}
play a 25-cenit limit game for reai
money. There is just this difference:
The winners turn over to the treasure! !
all the money that they have won from |
the losers and every six months this
fund is expended on some deserving
charity. In that way, while the playei
who is really ahead of the game doesn't
really profit, yet he isn't losing any- j
thing, and the loser has the satisfac- 1
tion of knowing that his money is go
ing to a good cause. The element ol .
chance ig not eliminated; each man j
plays his best, there are four hours of
excitement and the players do not feel
that they are beating the devil about j
the bush.
Giodas of the Cowboy.
An indication of the rapidity with
which the country west of the Missis
sippi is being reclaimed and settled is
to be seen in the project of the cattle
men of J)akota and Montana to trans
fer their business and their herdsi bodi
ly to South America. The great ranges
of the northwest are being cut up into
small farms and the area of public
grass land is diminishing rapidly. The
cattlemen are looking for ranges in
Chili, Brazil and the Argentine, and
if they cannot find large unbroken
areas of grass land in those countries,
or are unable to make satisfactory
terms, they intend to try Africa.
President Roosevelt recently re
ceived an invitation on a gold plate.
It was not political, but it asked him
to attend the mining congress in Lead,
S. D., next September. The plate was
not big enough to eat a dinner from,
as it measured two and three-fourths
by five inches, but it was large enough
to show what kind of gold the Black
Hills produce.
