Women want to please. It takes more heroism sometimes, to do the latter than the former. He goes on to say that a friend of his was telling him of a visit she had! to a Paris beauty parlor. There she saw a woman undergoing the tortures of the damned, in order to look pretty. She was getting a permanent undulation," one to last a year, and, judging by what one undergoes to get it, should last a year, if not longer. His frieiid arrived at the parlors ahead of time and was asked to wait. The professor was operating." The patient being a fat American woman of 50 on more.

Surely, someone ing murdered. Screams, groans and prayers alternated with whining like a puppy and squeeling like a pig. When the floor opened, his friend saw the victims She was a sight. She had collapsed into an armchair. Her hair was all in little spincllesj that stuck out from her head like quills upon the "fretful porcupine. The seance had begun at 9 in the morning and it was now half past one in the afternoon, and it would still was take another, hour before she would be finished." She sand-wisa was she tears sobs and munching hungry and between perhaps! pork. When she came out at three oclock, she was smiling and radiant, triumphant. She says that she looked like a horse and buggy. What man would undergo such agony just to please? They are satisfied to live without permanent undulation. ' j , h, ! 4 : Market Correspondent.

In Lawton, Okla., two attempts were made recently to burn the First Presbyterian church, because of dissatisfaction with its pastor. Rev. T J. Irwin. In a sermon preached by Mr. Irwin on the late Jake Hamon, the same who was shot by Clara, Smith Hamon, for whom he had deserted his wife and children, the clergyman said that if the oil man didnt go to heaven no man had a chance of salvation. Hamon was one of the financial supports of the church. More recently Mr. Irwin was accused of having performed a society wedding ceremony in a bathing pool. These and other incidents have split the congregation and furnished the motive for the attempts tp burn the church. In Boston another pastor, Rev. Edwin Curtis, is in trouble with the authorities of the First Presbyterian church of Brookline, because it is charged he baptized a dog and facetiously invoked and run for congress. benediction on! a salad and a dish o French fried potatoes. Mr. mav think vou know Curtis denies Having performed the baptismal rite. He says he ownYoumind, but chain es merely was playing with the dog and jokingly poured a little dont if you have to make are it water on him and pronounced him a good Presbyterian. Incidents $uch as these, assuming their truth, are not creditable to the participant, and generally have regrettable reactions. There is enough levity iq. the world today, enough mockery of sacred things, iwithotft clergymen lending countenance to the scoffers. Irrepressible is the conflict between materialism and spirituality and the protagonists of the former need no encouragement. ' THE WOMAN IN THE SHADOW A woman kills a man and is enthusiastically acquitted by a widow of the victim, is .left susceptible jury; Another woman,-th- e penniless and helpless. The jury never thought of that result. Still another widow, also made so by the shooting of her husband at the hands of a feminine avenger, kills herself in despair, believing, in the light of the verdict in the first case, that justice is not to be looked for where a woman is defendant. The jury never of that, either, as a logical possibility and sequel to their thought finding. In fact, it may be doubted whether they thought of anything or were capable of thinking in the real sense of the word. They sat there and gazed tearfully at the picturesque prisoner andjust let their hypnotized minds sozzle in a tepid hath of slushy sentimentality. The wohds of the suicide indict them : All she will have to do is plead temporary insanity and the jury will free her. Juries believe anything so long as it isnt in their own families. Perhaps it is possible to secure twelve males to try a female slayer who will be guided by law and facts', not by emotion and But the chances are always against it under the presenthysteria. The average man is too concerned with the accused womansystem. in the foreground to consider the innocent woman in the background of the tragedy. Thus murder is made safe. Samuel Hopkins Adams in Leslies Weekly.
