(Copyright, Wlti, l?y the NlcClur* News ? p?prr Syndicate.) ^ The society columns tyui the Froxen star department storo uds, in the dully paper* had been full (it'll. CJlrla from , the stores going home at night had i discussed U. According to some it was "grand and perfectly elegant for those swell Kirls to do it." 'l'o oth era. tnore critical, it waa either a case i of wanting to get^ into print by doing something out of tho way or u delib- J erate scheme to rob the poor girl who i needed work for her daily bread. To Filbert Frozen star. Junior part* I ner of the dry goods firm of Frozen star Brothers & Co.. it had a at ill dif ferent significance. It was part of hla carefully laid plan to make an entrance Into the hitherto closed por tals of the city's moat exclusive cir cles. Tho proposition was this: The so ciety women in question were to en Joy all the realism of the task. They were to punch the time clock with the other thousand employees of the store. They were to bo allowed to sell goods in whatever department they chose, and for their sales they wore to receive a 2(5 per cent commission for their favorite charity. The scheme worked better than he had expected, and on a certain Mon day morning In late winter tho ranks of ten of the largest departments in the store were Increased by the pres ence of ten new employees. In the neckwear department was the debutante, Wilhelmlna Sedgwick. In the millinery department young Mrs. Sturtevant Shawger floated around in a now biyiffant morning cos tume especially Imported for the un dertaking from war-ridden Paris. In the blouse department, was the be earrlnged Mrs. Tom Bradgley, who was a great drawing card because, of the rather piquant details of her re cent divorce proceedings. Most attractive of all, was Corlnne Delacroix, at least from Filbert's per sonal viewpoint. She had chosen the more arduous task of selling furniture because, as she argued, furniture was more expensive even^than French mil linery, and 25 per cent of her sales there might really bo worth while. Although Corlnne herself was not especially well known ? indeed she had made her debut only a few weeks before ? as far as family and fortune went she was the most valuable ac quisition of them all. This debutante saleswoman, simply clad in a neat little frock of black, guiltless of a single ornament save for the brilliant sash she wore across her slender body was "on the floor" ahead of time that first morning and Hall Bingley.Tiead of the department, j was giving her instructions about her I work when Frozenstar appeared. lie had intended to get there in time to explain to Miss Delacroix in person Just what her duties were to be. Of course, thought he. it was ab surd for him to be Jealous of a man like Bingley, who, in the eyes of Corinqe, was probably no more than a butler or footman. That she had been talking with apparent ease to him and that she spoke to him again frequently during the day, was noth ing to Irritate Frozenstar. Still the irritating thing about It j was that he was decidedly ruffled and that as the hours passed he became : more and more so. Delightful little woman that she was, Frozenstar noticed that Corlnne treated him with something more than frigid formality.. She told him more than once that she admired the spirit of philanthropy that had prompted him andishe actually asked him to act as patron for a post-Lenten charity bazaar. This would mean a check for several hundred dollars, but Frozen star accepted eagerly. She really was delightful, charming, bewitching. And her sales were phenomenal. Corinne's commissions amounted to an amazingly large figure, larger by far than those of any other one of the "society saleswomen." What a pleasure It would be. thought Frozen star, to hand that check to Miss Dela croix. He would take it in' person to her. Just as he was meditating this in his private office, the advertising manager slouched into the room. "Have you beard the news?" he asked. "One of the men from the Morning Post Just told me. But of course it isn't going to get Into print. That would.. jiever^io. That Corlnne Delacroix you thought you had up in the furniture department ii really loafing In seclusion at her father's place at Palm Beach. Yon see, she thought it wasn't fair to rob some girl of at Job; yet she didn't want to miss getting the commissions for.- charity. So she got hold of a pretty little salesgirl who needed work and got Iter to take the place. She happened to know a guy in your store, too, en gaged to him, I think ? and so she came around in Corinne's piece and arranged to be in the department of this men she is going to marry. Of course, no one Is eny the wiser ex cept a few of us that heard the story. And it can't make a Wt of difference to yon so long as the people hare been fooled.' I think it was quite a shrewd idee, don't youf* Frozenstar had a momentary vision of the cheek he bed made out la or der to be a patroa of the charity CITY HAS SUFFERED MUCH Diarbekr, on tho Upper Tigris, On* of th? Moat Interesting Spots on Earth. On? of the Import nut cities of A?ia Minor lying in tho region in which tho lliiHHiun and Turkish armies have boon lit contact for some time Is Diar bekr, hi t nut on tho upper Tigris, which. u( this point, is a ktreutu Mow ing through a deyply cut upon valley. Describing its situation. tho National Olographic society says: "Tho situation of Diarbekr is an im pressive one. "llnilt upon u basaltic tublolaud, surrounded by walls con structed of basaltic rock, the city over looks a broad bend of tho Tigris, which Hows by its eastern side. Hortcath tho walls of t ho city and within the hem) <>f tho river lies a plain covered with vegetation of ?very shade of groon that the Kast can produce. Few Cities of tho earth havo undergone greater vicissitudes than Diarbekr, Roman and Persian, Armenian and Pa rthian, Arab and Turk have dis puted its possession... In ono of its many changes alone, more than SO, 0.00 ot its population were put to the sword. "So heavy has boon the toll that war lias levied upon it that where once it was larger than tho capital of the United States, today less than 40, 000 people dwoll there. The city is rich In remnants of Its former great ness. Old Jacobite, Oreek and Ar menian churches raise their spires to heaven along with the minarets of a host of Mohammedan mosques. Silk raising is a principal Industry, and tho sheaves that the inhabitants bring in there are sheaves of mulberry leaves which serve as fodder for tho hungry and ravenous silkworm. Lettuce Is a favorite article of diet, and the Turks eat It all day long. "Tho Diarbekr scorpion 1b as fre quent if not as poisonous as th? New Mexican tarantula, and thousands are bitten annually by it, ? Dut its venonv is not penetrating like that Of the snake, hence prompt scarification of the wound prevents infection." Rather a New Thing. A Chicago woman hat) asked for a place on the police force, advancing as her special reason the fact that "her husband is a poet and she has to live." Perhaps this case might be cited in support of the assertion that clever men seldom marry clever women, and, vice versa, although It la hard to Bay whether the cleverness In this par ticular instance Is possessed by the poet husband or by the wife who wants to become a policewoman in order to live. We have our suspicion, however, without knowing anything about the respective merits of the pair. It is, at leasts a mark, of originality for a woman to aspire to active work on the police force, and a vein of originality is one of the attributes of cleverness, while even a stupid person may write poetry or what often passes for poetry in these days. Perhaps this Chicago husband iB not really a poet, but only thinks, he is a poet. It is unfortunate that there lb a lot of confusion of these two classes in the popular mind, for there have been, and still are, many worthy poets who are not afflicted with stupidity, but they treat poetry as a pastime and carry It along as a side line, getting their bread and butter with something more dependable. As a rule, a man who makes poetry his steady job is a pretty poor specimen as a husband, and his wife is in luck If she does not have to take in washing. It is to be expected that his Chicago 'wife is 'the real poet of the family, be . cause she has the vision to see the reality of life, and if she gets her place on the police force it would probably please her friends If her first official act were to run her husband in for nonBupport. ? Providence Journal. Artificial Limbs Are Marvels. Since the war broke out, artificial limb makers have surprised many peo< pie by ttie excellence of their achieve ments. One dashing young English of ficer, who lost his right leg Just above the knee in the Manie fighting, has been fitted with so good a substitute that he is still able to continue in the service. Another adventurer, who lost the major portion of one of his legs in a Mexican rebellion, went to England soon after the beginning of hostilities, hoping to take part in the fighting. Hr is a moat expert horseman, and haa been fitted with an artificial limb so perfect that now ho rides as Well as ever. It is only the wildest of buck* Jumpers that can unseat him.
