A new freedom In physical move ment is discernible If not obvious In feminine Japan. it can be noted on the street in thy little glris' play. Al ways they have htul the ,most yarled line of games and were fairly active, but nothing ho unladylike an Jmnplnu over a stick, a sort'of pole vault with out the pole. Now this is not linunuitl. In the larger towns, and surprisingly high do these wooden clogged, kl tnonoed, plg-talled youngster* jump, and with much abandon. i In the girls' schools there Is much more activity than even throe years ago of the kind that past generations of American mothers called tomboy Ishness, and Increasing- Interest In ten nis and basketball. Also It Is not Un becoming now for maiden or matron to hold up her head In Hue with her spine, and frankly look on at this world and all its iocunfb ranees. For merly It was almost the great unpar donable not to carry the head slightly forward, with eyes downcast. This attitude of humiliation is now becom ing fearfully old-fashioned. Foreign teachers of long experience say that the change In this respect Is striking In the classroom. Students when reciting now look up squarely at tl'ie instructor Instead of at tholr knees as formerly. As this Is not a taught thing, but the reflex of a change with in. vital enough to overcome teaching and inherited tendency, It Is signifi cant. Another change, trifling, but a straw that shows the direction and ve locity of the current, Is the growing habit of man and wife to walk side by side on the street Instead of my lady pigeon-toeing along about a pace in the rear of her lord.?Scrlbner's Magazine. TRUE DA VINCI IN \OUVRE? Museum Director Scoffs at Theory That Famous Painting Has Been Brought to America. Artists mid friends of the Louvre museum may reassure themselves. The original of Leonardo da Vinci's painting, "La Belle Perron ni ere," hangs in the museum and Is not in America. This on the authority of D'Estournelles de Constant, director of national museums. "This Is an old story/' suld the di rector. "It is not the first time that the authenticity of our masterpieces has been questioned by foreign collec tors. There seems to be no way of putting a stop to the habit. "The painting entered among our collections under the( title of 'La Belle Ferronniere' was certainly from the brush of Leonardo da Vlncl himself. It was among tho art treasures of Francis I and, In 1042, Fere Dan, the king's minister of finances, Identified It as the portrait of the duchess of Mantau. Certain historians, on the other hand, have maintained that it was that of Lucre*la Crlvell. It Is generally conceded today that the pic ture represents La Belle Ferronlere, one of Francis I's favorites. "Whoever It may represent, how ever, the painting had always hung In the private apartments of the king until ft was transferred to the Louvre. Its authenticity might possibly have been questioned had It been stolen at any time. But no such misadventure ever occurred to It."?From Le Petit Paris. (Translated for the Kansas City Star.) Bans the Merry-Go-Round. Verily the most captious of music critics /lnustj confess that when the overture of "Foot and Feasant" is hoot ed out by the steam calliope of a merry-go-round it carries to the Juve nile ear a more vital inspiration than could a Philharmonic feast in Car negie hall or a whole opera at the Met ropolitan. Imagine, then, the grief of Tarsos I'olycrone at the refusal of Mayor Scott of New Kochelle to li cense him to operate a $30,000 merry go-round on a lot that he and his two brothers have bought at the entrance to Hudson park. Supreme Court Justice Piatt of White Flalns will decide whether the gorgeous merry-go-round planned by the I'olycrone brothers shall be sanc tioned or not, for the Indignant trio have applied to him for a writ of man damus to compel Mayor Scott to Issue n license.?New Vork Sun.

ALL TOOK PUFFS Smoking by No Means Always Confined to Men. In Old?n Time* Women, and Even Children, participated In Enjoy* inent of the "Weed." William Penn has a flue record In the history books. Controversy uml colon! nl muck raking has not sullted hli name. But William Penn smoked with the women. He smoked with women 4ft America. No? ?oi In sylvan privacy In a small select party down near the City of Brotherly Love. ? He smoked with thejl? right out In public. In fact, they took puffs from the same pipe. Twice at least did this happen, says a New York Sun writer. Yes, of course It was a peace pipe; a Calumet which he smoked with the big chiefs and the braves and the squaws of the tribes that were selllug him land. A friendly social time was had by all and he made a fine trade for a first-class piece of land, payltu; for It In part with .SCO tobacco pipes, 100 hands of tobacco and 20 tobacco boxes. ,Jn the old country in the good old days the women took to smoking as quickly as did the men. At least the ladles of the courts did. In France tobacco was the special possession of the queen mother, who received some plants from her ambassador In Portu gal, Jean Nlcot. This Is the real orlg lnal chap of Lady Nicotine fame. The weed was called "the queen's herb," "Incense," "Yerba Santa," "pan acea," and half a dozen other names of the same sort. In the English court the ladles as well as the men followed the fashion Introduced by Sir Walter Kalelgh. Tobacco smoke was consid ered the best medicine for all Ills, and so late as the time of Charles IF* boys were flogged at Eton for refusing to learn to smoke. Of course, It has not all been plain sailing for the smokers. So gentle and mild a punishment as a $25 fine or a short sojourn in that gray castle with the towers aDd battlements and the bridge of sighs that we call the. Tombs would have been considered laughable by those who In earlier days were really out after the smokers. Church and state alike have gone right after them. Imprisonment, excommunication from the church, the death penalty, whip ping on the bare back with the knout, have all of them been on the statute books of one or another country of Europe In the course of attempts to grub out this habit, root and branch, ladles and gentlemen alike. No less a person tlian a Mug of England wrote publicly for the antls. He calls It "loathsome to the eye, hurtful to the nose, harmful to the brnln, dangerous to the lungs and In the black stinking fnrae thereof, near est resembling the horrible Stygian smoke of that pit which Is bottom less." This referred to all smokers. He was not doing any sharpshootlng at the women. He was leading the firing squad against the whole tobacco brigade. Oldest Flao. Our royal standard, In which some changes, will possibly be made as a re sult of Ireland's new status, Is not so venerable as the Danish royal stand ard?the oldest national flag In exist ence. The white cross on a red ground of the Danebrog Is traditionally traced to a vision seen In the sky by a Danish king, Vlademar the Victorious, when leading his army against the Esthonl ans near Reval In 1210. According to one version of the legend, the blood red flag fell from heaven Into the Danish ranks. There Is no doubt that about the date of this battle It was adopted as the Danish flag and that It had the religious associations which belonged to most national standards In medieval times.?Montreal Family Herald.

Is so exasperatlngly glow that resi dents of the apartment usually can't decide whether It Is funny or tragic. They are laughing over his latest. "Yes, 'MIz Jones,' the windows sure need washing," he admitted Tuesday. "I'll get to them tomorrow." He paused doubtfully. "Tomorrow or Thursday." Then still more doubtfully: "But, If I do have to put them off till Friday, I believe I might Just as well let them go till Monday."?Kansas City Star. Playing Safe. In spite of repeated warnings from his father, little Hobby persisted In driving nails Into blocks and boards. He had arrived at play-at-carpenter stage.

Jean Invariably clotted her door at night. He called softly. There was no an swer. Yet Jean woke at the slightest sound. Icy fear clutched his heart; he entered, switched on the light. The room was empty! He turned and ran down the hall to his wife's room. "Martha!" he called. "Jean Is gone! The bed Ir empty?-hasn't been slept in! What shall we do?" . To his complete and utter amaze ment his wife sat up In bed and laughed until the tears ran down her cheeks. "Oh," she gasped, "you'll be the death of me! (Jan't you remember anything?

T\yo mountaineers had long enjoyed a blood feud with each other, but at last neighbors, desiring peace, man aged to bring them together. For sev eral minutes after the meeting not a word was said. Finally one, seratch lng his thumbnail reflects ely on the butt of his gun, remarked. "\Vell, pardner, I'm not goln' to tm with ye much longer." The second was relieved but strlved to conceal his feelings. "Don't talk thatta way, Seth," he re monstrated. "We been enemies fer twenty years, but of course I'll miss ye.

Considerable Hint. "This Is ft nice **anoe, Isn't It, Maud 7" said the tall, dark young num. "Very nice Indeed, Charlie," replied the pretty girl sitting In the stern. "There's Just one objection to It," said the young man. "Indeed; and what Is that?" asked the girl. "Oh, well, you see, If you try to kiss a girl In this canoe there's a great danger of upsetting It, and theu both the fellow and the girl would bo thrown Into the river." "Oh, indeed!" said the girl, reflec tively, and she sat silent for a while. At length she remarked, softly, "Charlie, I can swlm.'r Rude and Unusual. My nursing training was received at a hospital where all the standards were of the highest and where we were drilled Ln all the little courtesies of our profession. For that reason I took my work most seriously, and thus suffered a most embarrassing moment, though afterward I realized it was funnier than It was serious. One night I fell Into a sound sleep, to be awakened by my patient's laugh ter. She had asked me the time, she said, and In my sleep I had replied, MAw, look at your own watch." That remark was a byword ln the hospital for weeks.?(Thlrago Tribune. Fish Meal as Food. Experiments with fish meal as a food for domestic animals have been made abroad and it has been found that pigs and cattle eat it with relish. In Norway the meal Is made from cod and herring. The codfish are dried first ln the air and then in an oven, and afterward ground Into meal. They make a highly nutritious food. Her ring are boiled and placed under press ure beforp being ground.
