TllE I I flood-stricke- n Three Ways the Girls Have of Smash-in- g the Bottle. Rear Admiral Bowles, chief constructor of the navy, who was an spectator at the recent launch of the armored cruiser Colorado at Philadelphia, has made some interesting comments on the general subject of the methods practiced In christen-irwarships by breaking bottles of cnampagne on their prows. According to his experience there are three ways of handling the bottle on such occasions. He describes one as the baseball method, in which the bottle is held like a bat and hurled agairst the side of the ship with a long, sweeping swing, with energy enough for a hom r run or a at least. Another method is described as the s the bottle is blow, in which smashed against the prow with a full, arm serve. The admiral is quoted at saying that this method was used bj the sponsor of the Colorado. The third method is described as the ping, pong style, and is a dainty little smash, sufficiently vicious, however, to shower the champagne on the hull, and sometimes on the fair operator alsa It is admitted that none of these methods is perfect and that failure is possible in each, through the nervousness or excitement of the operator, who, by a bad aim, or lack of sufficient force, may fail to break the bottle and In that way spoil the whole proceedings. A failure of that kind might he disastrous to a ship, at least from sentimental viewpoint, and, as the sailors say, would "hoodoo that par ticular vessel. In one case, the sponsor delayed the blow until the descending ship got beyond her reach; but she was equal to the occasion, and throw managed to by a smash the bottle broadside on. To avoid the possibility of such Admiral Bowles suggests tha use of a device attached to the ship In such a way that when the young ladj releases the bottle it is bound to strike against the prow of the ship with sufficient force to release its contents, and thus give the ship its maiden bath before it reaches its native element.

Not infrequently a womans nature and breeding may be distinguished by the manner in which she shakes a friends hand. It may be due to the fact that there are more nerves between the brain and the hand than between any other two portions of the body, hut true it is that the hand is oftener more eloquent than the tongue, a Washington orator is quoted as saying, and when a woman once appreciates the importance of this she will immediately begin the study of exOne human pression of the hand. touch of sympathy or grasp of the hand can and frequently does mean more than a volume of words, and to possess this quality, particularly in a woman, is no light charm and a thing that lies within the reach of every woman. Should she not have it naturally she should speedily cultivate expression of the hand. Of course there are certain hell marks of a refined hand, beauty and texture of skin, whiteness of nails all essential, but not half so important as expression.

President Dabney of the University of Tennessee, when in New York told about the reply of a sinner to clergyman of his acquaintance, who was a Calvinist with the most severe notions of future punishment. While this Calvinist was walking along the street of hia native town he met man whose tongue had been loosened by too liberal potentations. The fellow seemed to be greatly displeased with somebody, for in his stammering talk the minister heard over and over again the phrase, Damn you. Going up to the man, he took him bf the shoulder and said: "My man, dont you know its verf wrong to use such profanity?
