VEGETARIAN ON BOTH SIDES
Insid* and Outside, Philadelphian Was
Absolutely True to Hie
Beliefs.
“If you are not an outside vege
tarian you are not really a vegetari
an at all.” The speaker was a mem
ber of Philadelphia’s little vegetari
an church up town. An odd figure
in his gray health shirt, gray venti
lated suit, gray knit gloves, gray
aerated hat, gray cloth boots, he con
tinued : “An inside vegetarian is one
who puts in his interior nothing that
has been procured by the slaughter
of animals. An outside vegetarian
puts on his exterior nothing that
has been procured by the slaughter
of animals.
“See my gloves—vegetable gloves
of ootton—not made of skins of
murdered kids. See my boot#—
woven—owing nothing to some poor
murdered calf. See my buttons—
wooden—not made of grisly bones.
Inside and outside”—so the quaint
faddist ooncluded—“I am a vege
tarian, and inside and outside I get
along without the murder of any
creature, fish, flesh or fowl. There
are many like me.”

PRACTICE WHAT THEY PREACH
Women’s clubs throughout the
country are in favor of the merit
system in office, and in accord with
their theories have made their prac
tice in many of the clubs, having de
cided that rotation in office is the
best for the federation. In the Illi
nois State Federation no woman can
hereafter be elected to one of the
high offices who has not served two
years as a director. It has generally
come to be understood that the vice
president is next in the line of suc
cession.
A CRUEL INQUIRY.
“I’m suah,” said Charlie Soft
leigh, with a drawling lisp, “that I ,
don’t know what I shall do when I
come away from college. Mothah 1
wants me to be a ministah, but I
have a leaning toward litratchah.”
“Did you ever think of becoming
an actress?” she asked cruelly.— 1

KNOWLEDGE THAT HURT8. ‘
Towne—So Dumbley married a
college woman. My! it must be '
fierce for him to be tied to a woman 1
who knows so much that he doesn’t 1
know.
Browne—Oh! that doesn’t hurt 1
him so much as the fact that she
knows how much ha doesn’t know.
CHANGED HI8 MIND. ^
“When I saw Trouble coming I 1
climbed up the chimney.”
“And did you get away from ‘
him ?” *

A LONG-TIME ORGANIST.
Mrs. A. F. Goddard was church
organist at Abington, Mass., for 44 t

has done quite a great deal of other x
work in a musioal line. «

ARREL CHASED THE CHILD
Irewater Receptacle, of Its Own Voli
tion, 8ought to Injure Ten
Year-Old Girl.
I# a man with three drinks of ,
dusky under his belt cannot walk 1
rithout reeling, can a barrel filled I
nth firewater be blamed for rolling j
rom the curb into the gutter?
If the barrel in its mad career
hases and runs over a child, can ]
be owner of the barrel and the whis- '
y be held liable for injuries to the !
hild on the ground that he was
egligent?
In one case at least Judge W. G. i
lady in municipal court, says “No.” 1
in account was brought by Mar- \
'aret Flanagan, who is some ten
ears old, by her mother, as guar- l
Ian, against Oswald Weinreb, the 1
wner of the barrel. i
It was claimed that the barrel
ms left in such a position that when
he little girl passed it took after
ter.
Mr. Weinreb, who appeared by
ittorneys Ferguson A Hennessev,
ienied that the rampage of the bar
el was his fault. He also denied
taving given authority to have any
roe place the barrel in the street.
Phe decision by Judge Cady is for
dr. Weinreb, who is given costs.—

TOLSTOY IN YOUTH AND AGE.
When Tolstoy was young and full
f energy and passion he acted as
tie inner nature prompted him—
:eeping loaded revolvers against his
nemies, indulging in various orgies
rod finally marrying a lovsly girl
rod having a large family, etc.
Vhen becoming older and his life’s
latural pleasures losing their at
raction, he commenced preaching
‘passive resistance," celibacy for
very one and stoicism generally.—

“Where’s the man ?” asked the old
