Feminine Guile.
Some women when staying at
hotels do not care to exhibit to the
passers along- the corridors the
exact size of their feet, so they
carefull3r carry with them a couple
of pairs of tiny, delicate shoes,
which instead of the ones they are
wearing, they place outside their
doors for the servants to take down
and clean. All the big boot shops
in Paris now make a specialty of
this tin' footgear, and a pair or
two form a portion of the trous
seau of every up-to-date bride.

A Bird That Remembers.
The homing instinct' lasts for
life, and a bird sometimes attains
the age of sixteen years, says a
writer in Country Life, in America.
During the Franco-Prussian war
the French caught a homing pigeon
which was being sent to transmit
information out of the besieged
city of Paris. The bird was made
a prisoner of war and kept in con
finement for ten years. When given
its liberty it at once returned to its
old home, .showing that ten years
was not sufficient to drive from its
mind the memory of home.
Late Texas Items.
Estimates on the cost of additions
to the insane asylums at Terrell
and Austin place the cost of an
addition to either asylum sufficient
to accommodate five hundred pa
tients, at $S0,000. An appropria
tion for such an addition will be
recommended by the committee.
Heavy rains fell throughout the
state Monday, causing all streams
