The Real Boss.
The insurance agent climbed the
steps and rang the bell. "Whom do
you wish to see?" asked the careworn
person who came to the door.
"I want to see the boss of the
house," replied the insurance agent.
"Are you the boss?"
"No," meekly returned the man
who came to the door, "I'm only the
husband of the boss. Step in; I'll
call the boss."
The insurance agent took a seat in
the hall, and in a short time a tall,
dignified woman appeared. "So you
u-ont tn eoo tha -hnas?** TAnPfltPd the
woman. "Well, Just step into the
kitchen. This way. please. Bridget,
this gentleman desires to see you."
"Me th' boss!" exclaimed Bridget,
when the insurance agent asked her
the question. "Indade Oi'm not!
Sure, here comes th' boss now." She
pointed to a small boy of ten years
who was coming toward the house.
"Tell me," pleaded the Insurance
agent, when the lad came into the
kitchen, "are you the boss of the
house? This woman says you are."
"Want to see the boss?" asked the
boy. "Well, you just come with me."
Wearily the insurance agent climbed
up the stairs. He was ushered into
a room on the second floor and guided
to the crib of a sleeping baby.
"There!" exclaimed the boy; "that's
the real boss of this house." And
nnhnrfv Hpnlprt that statement.
Evidence Disappeared.
Several lawyers were discussing: the
United States secret service the other
day in the marshal's office In the Federal
building. Much that they said
was directed at a quiet but capable
deputy marshal, who took it in silence
until he got an opportunity to counter.
The most persistent of his tormentors
began to tell of a counterfeiting case
where the severity of the government
put a "good fellow" in Jail.
"Well, it was different up in my
county," exclaimed the deputy marshal,
breaking into the confab.
"We had the evidence on the fellow
all right," he countined. "He had
made about a peck of silver dollars.
The only difference between his product
and that of Uncle Sam's was that
the counterfeiter put a couple more
grains of silver in his. He got away
with it for months and when we began
to collect evidence we had bags
full of the phony dollars. When the
man was placed on trial the learned
members of the bar were permitted to
satisfy their curiosity by handling tne
counterfeits. But the man was acquitted."
"How was that?" one of the lawyers
wanted to know.
"You see the lawyers walked off
with the evidence. They didn't leave
a single dollar, was the reply.?Philadelphia

His Sure Means of Identification.?
Joe Perkins, retired woodsman, hunter
and trapper, was snugly housed for the
decline of his old age on the shore of
a small inland lake. Joe had lived
through an era of frontiersmen, and he
was another Leatherstocking in his
lofty contempt for the rules of civilization
and game laws. One day the
game warden caught him in the act of
bagging a pair of ducks.
Examination proved them to be mallards,
which the law forbade one to
shoot?even in the open season for
other fowl?under penalty of a heavy
fine.
"They're mallards," said the warden,
sternly. "You must come with me."
"Mallards?" said Joe, In a deeply offended
tone. "They can't be mallards."
"They certainly are. Look at the
feathers, the bill. How do you tell a
mallard.
"Why," said Joe, shrewdly, "the best
way In the world. I leave It to the
duck himself. My eyes are bad, and I
can't tell which kind from which at a
little distance. But when a flock lights
in the swamp, I paddle out close to
them, as close as I can without scaring
them. I take good aim with my
shotgun. And then I call out:
"'Are you mallards?'
"If they answer 'yes,' I paddle back
home. But If they don't, I fire."?

"He's drowning:!"
"Get a ladder!"
At last the ladder was procured.
Cautiously approaching the pool, which
was ornamented by the luckless man's
head and shoulders, the park keeper
placed the ladder in position and began
to creep along it.
"Come in a bit closer!" he shouted.
"I can't swim," answered the impromptu
bather.
"But you're only up to your arm

ain't got no need to swim. Walk."
"Walk be blowed!" responded the
other. "This water's ten foot deep."

An Eclipse to Order.?On the evening
before the last solar eclipse in Germany
the colonel of a regiment sent
for the sergeants and said: "There
will be an eclipse of the sun tomorrow.
The regiment will meet on the parade
ground in undress. I will come and
explain the eclipse before drill. If the
day is cloudy the men will meet in the
drill shed as usual." Thereupon the
sergeants drew up the following order
of the day: "Tomorrow morning, by
order of the colonel there will be an
eclipse of the sun. The regiment will
assemble on the parade ground, where
the colonel will come and superintend
the eclipse in person. If the sky is
cloudy the eclipse will take place in
the drill shed."?Christian Register.

"But how am I to tell?" inquired the
anxious wife.
"The convalescent stages of influenza,"
replied the doctor, "are marked by
a slight irritability."
The next day he called and found
the patient's wife radiant.
"When I refused to order his steak

into the kitchen and smashed fourteen
soup plates and a dinner service, so, of
course, I sent out for a steak at once."

CHANGING STYLES.
Pointers to the Women on What to
Wear and How to Wear It.
Black and white rule in the models |
shown for winter resort wear. That
this fancy for black and white, which
has been the predominant note of the
late winter modes, will last well into
the summer is the opinion of those '
who should know. Modistes and mil- |;
nnery designers mc tamei vuai; ,
giving up their choicest secrets before
the openings in late February or 1
March, but all are agreed upon the J
black and white combinations. It has ,
proved such a successful follower of 1
vivid colors, and the artists in the pro- j
fession have developed such a way of ,
putting touches of crude colors against
this combination that has made many
a wonderfully pretty gown this last j
season. When it is the fashion to use j
a background like black and white for I
the introduction of a color note, then j
one is apt to find an amazing number ,
of successful costumes. j
It is when the vivid colors are used 1
as a background that women en masse present
a far too gaudy and tawdry ap- \
pearance. The colors do not harmon- i
ize and one is always in doubt, as to j
what to wear for any occasion. The ,
argument against the black and white j
season is the groups of women, such
as one sees at large social gatherings
lose all gayety. There is also this fact j
to bear in mind, that unless a black <
and white comDination is cnosen rare- fully,
there is nothing so loud looking. (
The Improvement over the old time ]
methods of relieving black and white |
is to introduce Egyptian and oriental ^
colors with it. Heretofore designers j
have largely favored pastel shades in 1
conventional applications. Pale pink,
blue, lavender, and canary yellow were
the favorite tones chosen to touch up
and bring in relief the black and
white. Today these tones would stamp
one as provincial. Vivid reds, Chinese
blues, orange yellow, papal purple and
grass greens are the ones chosen. I
These vivid colors are possible on J
account of the present methods of
veiling. Whatever is veiled is often
more artistic than that which is fully
revealed, and this is especially true of
the gorgeous trimmings which are so
lavishly applied to these black and
white dresses.
Both moire and heavy satin will be
greatly used in coat suits for early
spring wear. This fashion is an effective
one and not extravagant. So
far black satin is the only color used,
but in the moire suits, copper brown,
all the shades of dull blue, and green,
are shown. This moire is not of the
heavy, boardlike stiffness that we are
' - UU
accustomed to associate wmi mc
name, but an admirable, rather rough
texture with the softness of satin and
just a tiny bit of the watering suggestion
that is so artistic.
The satin is not messaline or meteor.
It is somewhat heavier, though it has
the suppleness of the other weaves.
All these suits are made with the
straight, short, slim coats, singlebreasted,
turnover collar, a band at the
hem of the straight narrow skirt, and
plain set in sleeves:
The new evening dresses for southern
wear are particularly attractive as
well as somewhat daring. Many of the
gowns are made of black and white or
blue, in dull shades, which run a close
second to the black and whites. These
chiffons are richly embroidered in tiny
beads, so as to give weight and drag
against the figure. The daring part
of the frock is the lining, which is ol
pink chiffon, beneath this pink chiffon,
undergarments are donned over silk
tights.
A tendency of the present modes is
towards a rather lopsided effect, which
is shown In an infinite number of litI
tie ways. In many of the extreme '
models side trains are shown, the coiffure
ornaments, too, are placed so as
to give the effect of springing from
one of the ears, filmy scarfs are usually
draped on the left side, it is a
charmingly non-sensical fancy that
will not last long.
Another of the lopsided fashions is
the shoulder fastenings applied to
capes. The cape is going to be exploited
in every guise when spring
comes, from the highwayman pattern
to the old fashioned circular cape and
it will be seen in nine cases out of ten, ,
some indications made by means of
cords, motifs, buttons, or shoulder
straps of this lopsided effect.
There is a wide scope in this idea
for the presentation of the picturesque
fashions of former times. In lingerie
dresses, sheerness seems to be the
keynote, doubtless due to the fact that
veiled effects are so strong.
A new note in these dresses is the
combination of thin materials, with
those of heavier texture. For instance,
a marquisette waist and tunic will be
finished at the bottom with a band of
heavy linen. As this finish is stretched
to the tunic, a lining is not required.
One of the prettiest models shown
was of very fine white cotton voile,
entirely washable and as sheer as cobweb.
It was trimmed with heavy Eng
lish eyelet, with hems of silk in color. '
In regard to the hats, extremely
small and medium size hats will be
worn for general wear. Extremely
large hats are to be worn for dressy .
wear and for midsummer. In these as
well as in every other type of hat, the
rolled or upward orim, win ne mc mwi
popular.
Ribbon is much used as a trimming
or accessory in the present fashions.
Variations of violet seem to be in
demand and are combined with every
color, yes, even red.
Wonderful, indeed are the bordered
effects in the new cotton goods for
spring.
For early spring wear, nothing is as
satisfactory and as becoming as a one
piece, blue serge frock.
Revers on coats are large and are
trimmed with fur; muffs are made to
match them.
Chantilly lace veils with a border of
marabou are the latest things.
Black and white is still the favored
fashionable combinations.
The newest evening slippers are of
changeable tissues; silver and gold,
gold and rose, and gold and lilac are
the most popular colors.
Evening gowns are delightfully simple,
relying on color for the gorgeous
effect that they give.
The shadow pattern, the spider web
and the cob web designs are much
worn as are the Shetland wool veils.
Stunning belts of white pique, with
large oblong buckles to match, are
suitable for the stiffly starched, white
linen shirt waist.
Changeable velvets are in great demand
for evening wraps; brocades, too
are much worn, especially those that
show designs in gold and silver.

STORIES OF PARIS COURTS.
Barristers and Sleeping Judges?Arguments
In Murder Cases.
The centenary of the Paris bar, recently
celebrated at the Palais de Justice,
has recalled numerous anecdotes
which are going the rounds on the humors
of the law courts.
Among others it is told how a wellknown
lawyer, M. Allen Rousseau, was
pleading a rather tiresome case and
noticing that the judges were paying
no attention to him said: "As the president
is falling asleep, I suspend my
speech." But the judge had just woke
up and cried: "And I suspend you from
practising for six months." Nothing
daunted, the lawyer retorted: "Well,
I suspend myself for ever and ever,"
and gathering up his brief and cap he
left the court and never appeared
again.
A Paris barrister, M. Clery, however,
was more vigorous. Seeing that ,the
president and the assessors were all
asleep, he stopped and dealing a tremendous
blow on the desk in front of
him that woke everybody up with a
start, he cried: "Yesterday at this
same hour I was saying " and the
whole bench rubbed their eyes and
asked each other if they had really
slept through twenty-four hours.
The same counsel was pleading at
in a nnlrl Sav nnd remarked
that the judges were all turning more
and more around toward a stove that
5?.ve out a welcome heat. "The tribunal
behind which I have the honor of
3peaking" brought them all "right
about face" at once.
On another occasion the Judge asked
him to cut his speech short, as the
court had made up its mind. Assuming
the air of a childlike native, Mr.
Clery retorted: "Me right, you good
judges, him innocent," and sat down.
Though not intended humorously, the
celebrated criminal advocate Maitre
Henri Robert made a hit the other
flay when defending the matricide
Wache de Roo. He produced an act of
renunciation signed by the prisoner of
all benefit from the will of the mother
he had murdered and added to the
jury: "So if you acquit him he will go
forth miserable and poor, perhaps to

Madagascar, to repent of an act which
he may have committed in a moment
of thoughtlessness!"
And the verdict of the jury was typical.
They found that he had committed
murder, but that he had not
killed his mother, although the unfortunate
lady was the only person who
had been killed. This was in order to
save the prisoner from ten years penal
servitude, which is the minimum penalty
for parricide, whereas manslaughter
with extenuating circumstances can
be let off with mere confinement.
France is beyond doubt the country,
where murder can be committed with
the least fear of serious consequences
provided that any sentimental element
can be introduced. In the case of
Wache de Roo he cried and sobbed
piteously during the whole proceedings
and swooned when being interrogated,
but it was noticed that as soon as the
sentence was passed he seemed to recover
his self-possession altogether. It
is not in theatres alone that the most
excellent comedies are often to be seen.
