PROVOS LEADING Griff was one of the wise heads SHOEMAKER among the pitcheis, and while he was 123 N. ACADEMY AVENUE possessed of all the skill of an ordifirst-clas- s nary pitcher, it was often rather quick work with his brain than his hands that won games for the Colts and earned him the name of the Fox.

To ask the price of a thing before purchasing it is hopelessly surburban, and it is the duty of every complete snob to economy is despise all that is not expensive. In one particular direction, economy not only lingers but is flaunting, that is in conversation. Twenty years ago, one of the chief rules of was that to talk of and your money was unIt is still considered questionable taste to boast of havpardonable. ing much money, but to proclaim in the ears of all and sundry that one has none or not enough is almost as smart as to take into confidence all ones acquaintances as to the defects and flaws in ones physical machinery. It is dowdy to be quite healthy. An occasional attack of neuritis, or at least an operation once in every two or throe years, is necessary to those who would be smart. The woman who has never had influenza nor been ordered a rest cure is in danger of being accused of milkmaidishness, and the rest cure itself has to be invested with an atmosphere of fabulous expense by the doctors lest the patients should realize that they are really being asked not to overeat. Brain fag is the name now accorded to the sufferings of those who have been condemned by the exigencies of fashion to live entirely on dainties which are out of season, and, therefore, expensive. These dainties are naturally not considered worthy fare when the operation of nature has given them their full flavor and brought their price within reach of the unfashionable. When fashionable illness has been achieved, it is dowdy to indulge in it in ones own home, or to have any knowledge of how to treat it. Either a nursing home or a tribe of professional nurses must be called into requisition. In matters of domestic economy the same code applies to the virtues housewives. It is commonplace to be domesinculcated by tic and useful in the home. A glance over the smart literature of the day, the reports of the divorce court, will prove that it is not only in the things of everyday life that virtue is dowdy and out of date.

As some one has6aid, our Amer- ican educated young men constitute a bridge across the broad expanse of the Pacific ocean, on which American learning, American ideals, American institutions, American inventions, American products and manufactures are conveyed into China. They will be able to insure a peace and trade in the far east that treaties and military forces cannot insure. In one word,' those students will be the most effective instruments through and with which American civilization or rather American university education can exert its wonderful influence on the new China. Every' Chinese student in this country constitutes a link in the bond of peace that subsists between the ancient empire on the western and the giant republic on the eastern shores of the Pacific.
