NEW YORK. Oct. IS? Flirting is
grossly Immoral," according to declar
ations made by Mrs. Charlotte Per
kins Oilman at the Rand school,
where she delivered a lecture ou "As
sorted Sins." She said:
"The woman who flirts is doing a
fiendish work. I know a beautiful
girl, p rfectly decent and cultured,
who took great delight in urging men
on. 1 could never understand how
i she found pleasure in it.
" 'Oh, it's fun," she answered, when
I asked her why she did it. 'Fun to
get a man so he can't wait a minute
before he embraces you, and then
:iot let him do It,' she added gleefully
"There are thousands like her, who
either don't realize or dont care about
the harm they do."
Mrs. Oilman a few years ago earn
ed the sobiquet "the Truly Modern
Woman" because she asserted that a
married woman should work like her
Husband and should cease adorning
herself to attract men. She also stat
ed that all mothers should hand their
( hildren over to the trained nurse an
teachers to rear.
OF BUSINESS
One of (lie leading men of Louisville,
reported to l>e one of the richest, got a |
bad start In business. He began by
bein:; a photographer, but found that
the btisiucss didn't come up to expec
tations. He therefore wisely decided
to sell out nud start at something else.
He llnallv interested some people iu
the proposition and appointed a time
when they should come and look things
over.
He uow has the reputation of being
shrewd, and that this Is not a com
pUmentaty designation only Is Indi
cated by what happened then. He in
serted an advertisement in the dally .
papers In small enough type not to at
tract everybody's attention and yet
conspicuously enough to win consid
eration from those who make a point
of looking for bargains, announcing
that on a certain day he would take
pictures free of charge. Ry n coin
cidence the day he sot was tho day
when tbe prospective purchasers of
his business were to be there.
The ad., as usual, paid, and that
afternoon his callery was crowded
with visitors. They thronged In and
out. and he could not take caro of
them rapidly enough, even with the !
aid of several assistants. When tho J
folks he Intended to do business with
came he greeted them with a crown
of. disappointment, explaining that he
was simply so busy that he couldn't
see them then and asked them to come
back In the morning, when things
would likely have slackeucd up. They
agreed and went away duly impressed.
He sold out to them next day, aud It
is perhaps supertluous to add that he
got more for his outfit than he would
have done If It hadn't l>cen for the ,
modest little advertisement.? Louisville
Can't Be Cut Off With a Shilling.
French parents (or, at all events,
those with more than 2 shillings to
dispose of by will) are precluded from
the gratification of cutting a mutinous
child off with a shilling. A reserve Is
established by law which no testator
can bequeath away from his offspring.
A Frenchman with ono child can dis
pose of half his property according to
his pleasure; the other half must In
evitably pass to the child. Those with
two children can dispose of only one
third of their property, those with three
children of one-fourth, and so on ac
cording to the size of the family.
Stern parents occasionally seek to
evade the law by subterfuge, but the
disposal of property In France Is
hedged round with so many restric
tions that family black sheep a ro rare
ly mulcted of their legal Inheritance.?

"Xo, sir," was the unexpected reply.

ADMIRAL'S SON
DISAPPEARED
VALDEZ. Oct. 5? A. C. Rodgers, a
son of Admiral Raymond P. Rodgers,
United States navy, has disappeared
somewhere on the trail between Val
dez and Fairbanks, and an order has
been received by Capt. Lenoir, In
charge of the government telegraph
service of this district, to uso every
means to find him.
Rodgers came to Valdez early In
July and started alone on foot for
Fairbanks, since which time no word
has been received from him by his
parents or friends. In the latter part
of July a man. answering to the de
scription of Rodgers left Miller's road
house, u little more than half way be
tween Valdez and Fairbanks, for the
the latter placo. About a mile beyond
the road house he attempted to cross
a small but rapid stream, first re
moving all his clothing with the ex
ception of a shirt and a pair of moc
casins. When nearly across the
stream he lost his balance In the
swift water, and, desirous of saving
his clothing from a wetting, threw
them toward the shore, but the bun
dle fell short and was carried away
by the stream. He retraced his steps
to Miller's, where he arrived after suf
ferlng excessively from the attacks
of mosquitoes, to which his partially
nude condition had subjected him.
At the road house he was provided
with clothing and continued his jour
ney toward Fairbanks. So far as
can be learned this ie the last that
was seon of I-'.uj
DRIVING D063
EXHILARATING
Winter driving with a team of a
dozen dogs is declared by Dr. Grenfell
of Labrador to be the moat fascinating
sport ever enjoyed by man. Hla de
scription of it as quoted by James
Johnstone in his book, "Grenfetl of
Labrador," is as follow*:
Although there Is no harder work
when driving over a rough country,
yet the bracing cold, the exhilarating
brightness of the reflected light from
tho snow, the difficulty of getting bad
ly hurt, however sharply one shoots a
mountain side or even tumbles over a
cliff, tho absenco of damp or moisture,
tho fact that one can trwrel anywhere
in soft, light moccasins and In such
clothing as Is most conducive to agil
ity, without any reference to conven
tionality, all help to vanquish any re
alization of labor on a losg trip.
Thero Is infinite scope for skill in
choosing, tending and training your
dogs, also for both pluck and physical
strength in driving, and all the craft of
the woodsman Is called for In croesing
miles of virgin country, where at any
time any wrong turn will surely mean
a night in the open and perhaps a
temperature of 40 degrees of frost
Dog driving also teaches on* what
boxing is said to teach, self control,
for of ail the trials of temper one can
bo called on to endur* the worst Is,
given a glorious day for traveling and
when .one Is In a hurry, to have one's
dogs run wild, listening to nothing,
not watching anything, but tangling
with every stump and tree and biting
at everything that comes In the way.
As one man told me when 1 asked
lilm what kind of a team he had: "I's
had to give 'em up, sir, though I loved
they well enough. Good dogs be that
wild it Is too bard for to be a-haailln'
of 'em and be a Christian, too, air."

PASSENGER
ELEVATORS
It la certain that tho earliest and the
most Indispensable of the factors which
have enabled the construction of the
mighty skyscrapers of today was the
passenger elevator and that this was
brought Into use during the sixties of
the last century, Its flrst appearance
In New York being In tho Fifth Ave
nue hotel. It was at about the same
time Introduced Into the Astor House,
then already a generation old. So ob
vious was the utility of this device
that the wonder again is that It had
tot been brought Into practice long be
fore. Hoists are, of course, as old ns
the Dutch warehouses, of which the
plcturesqueness Is enhanced by the
projecting cranes that worked tho j
hoists, doubtless as old as Archimedes.
But hotels, even when the Fifth Ave
nue was built, were conditioned In al
titude, as were all other buildings not
exclusively monumental, by the pow
ers of ascension of the unassisted hu
man leg. Five stories was the max
imum for commercial buildings, except
that an attlcal sixth might bo added
for the dlscoramodatlon of the Janitor,
whose name was Hobson and who had
to go where he wa** sent, which, nat
urally, was where no "paying guest"
coold be Induced to go. Ho and bis
may have taken their outlook on life
from silts or bullseyes Just under the
roof. In the caeca of hotels the sixth
atory wns nsslgned to servants and
Storerooms. Tenants or inmates could
not be induced to climb more than
four flights of stairs and grumbled
grievously In tbe case of lnmntes of
hotels and accused the hotel clerk of
perfidy when they had to climb so
many. A device which would make
all the floors. even of a five story hotel,
equally accessible, and so equally de
sirable, was a device very sure of Im
mediate adoption, so snre that the only
wonder waa that the supply of It
should heve so lagged behind tho de
mand. The beginnings of the eleva
tors were, U Is quite true, the begin
nings also of what In their earlier
stages were known as the "elevator
buildings."? Scrlbner's Magazine.
