Disputed Door.
A curious suit Is reported from
Avignon France. It Is brought by an
antiquary to obtain possession of the
door of the city of Alan which be had
bought. Possession was refused on a
prior contract with another party but
this contention was discovered. At
this stage it was discovered that an
old agreement existed prohibiting the
demolition of any part of the property.

ed and It Is anticipated that the sale
to the antiquary will be confirmed.

Met Peculiar Death.
A case in which three bluejackets
were killed by fumes from potatoes
was described In the recent annual re-
port on the health of the British navy.
The men were overcome In a provis-
ion room in the Superb where there
was a stock of potatoes. Some of the
potatoes were germinating and this
gave rise to an accumulation of gas
which Buffffoeated the men.

In New York a new political organ-

ministration has been launched with
the avowed purpose of putting Dis-

"The City Democracy." The new
organization has been formed by
leading democratic professional and

The duties of a secretary to the
president are not considered at all
secondary in Importance to those of
a cabinet officer. He is the man
who first meets the thousands of
visitors to the president. He must
know just whom the president de-
sires to see or should see without
bothering the president. These visit-
ors come from all parts of the Unit-
ed States on all sorts of missions
gome important but mostly of a very
trivial character and they come
bringing all sorts of letters of In
troduction from all sorts of .people.
Were the president to see ail these
folks he would not have time fo
anything else and the secretary must
winnow the wheat from the chaff
and send the chaff away actually de
lighted because they haven't seen
the president. The president's sec
retnrv Is a buffer between his chief
and the United .States senators and
members of the house of represet-
atives with myriad" axes to grind
He must be a diplomat with the
most famous diplomats of the won
when they call at the White House
to take up the time of the president
Indeed it has been often said in
Washington that the president's sec
retary must be as much of a diplo-
mat as any member of the diplomat-
ic corps if he is to be of substantia!
value to his chief.

THRILLING ADVENTURE
OF BUSINESS WOMAN
(The plain buslnes woman and her
sister who has ben pressed Into ser-
vice for the occasion enter the milli-
nery section of a large department
store).
Businee woman (plaintively) "It
does seem to me that I am never free
from tho thrall of the hat. Just after
Christmas it begins to hang over me
like a pall and when the spring hats
really begin to sprout In the windows I
get perfectly morbid." (Speaks very
humbly to haughty saleswoman.) "If
you could wait on us please it would
be bo kind of you. Something small.
If yon please." (To sister while
haughty saleswoman departs In search
of hat). "Dear me! I wish I didn't
get so positively abject on these occas-
ions. I know some people who really
get a bitter satisfaction out of sailing
into exclusive millinery establish-
ments where the hats are dreams of
beauty and becomlngnesa and de-
manding to be shown confections
whose prices send the cold chills down
one's back and then departing with a
dissatisfied shake of the bead. But
not so L I fell Impudent when I cast
even a glance at the wonderful
things."
(Haughty saleswoman returns bal-
ancing a hat on her hand. She looks
bored to extinction. Business woman
removes her much battered squashy
and obviously home made headgear
and hands it to her sister. She looks
doubtfully at the hat in the saleswom-
an's hand).
Business woman "It looks awfully
big."
Saleswoman "It's tie smallest hat
In the house madam. Small hats are
not worn at an."
Business woman (hastily) "Oh of
course I know the hats are all big.
But you my face Is so small that
when I get one of these large things
on I look Just like a monkey. I really
don't think it's worth while for me to
try It on. I'm sorry to trouble you
but if yon could find something that
wouldn't Bit quite so far down on my
bead I'd be so much obliged." (She
miles pathetically and the saleswom-
an flounces away).
Sister (disgustedly) TouYe worse
than abject Sarah. You're perfectly
maudlin."
(Haughty sales-woman returns and
suddenly engulfs business woman In a
bat about two feet high and with a
crown like a scrubbing pail).
Business woman (gasps) "Oh
dear! "Where am IT Why really
dont yon think this one Is bigger than
the otherr
Saleswoman "No madam; it la
not"
Business woman Hooking forlornly
and apologetically toward showcase)
"But some of those hats are small-
er aren't they? I think IT1 just step
over and look at them." (She gath-
ers op ber belongings with the air of
a detected sneakthlef and sidles
over to the showcase. Haughty sales-
woman turns away with an air of deep
disdain.)
Business woman (almost In tears)
"Why won't they be nice to met
If they only realized it I'm such an
an easy mark. A kind person
could sell me anything."
Sister (impatiently) "Ok hare
little backbone. I'm perfectly ashamed
of you. Now there's a pretty hat and
a little one at that Ask that girl
over there to take it out and show 11
to you."
Business woman (after bracing her
self to the effort of addressing an
other goddess of the millinery world
fades away In deep humiliation upon
being told that the price of the hat
in question is $25) "She could tell
by the quiver In my voice that It
was not for the likes of me."
Sister "Why didn't you make her
take it out and show it to you any-
way? That's what they're here for."
Business woman (after vainly trav
eling up and down and around and
around counters and showcases)
Do you suppose if I wore one of
these I would lose my job?"
Sister "Here try this one. Now
If you had a big bandeae so that yon
would look a little as If you had on a
hat and not a necklace.
Business woman (gratefully)
"How cheering you are! (She peers
out from under the hat with the air
of a startled rabbit) Would yon mind
asking one of the saleswomen If they
have bandeaus?"
Sister (after pursuing saleswoman
around the counter and finally bring-
ing her to bay) "I want a large
bandeau. One that will hold a hat up
off the bead."
Saleswoman (languidly and without
offering to move) "You mean a halo.
No we don't carry them. They're not
worn." (She resumes her Important
occupation of gazing dreamily into
space. Sister returns to business
woman who is still In a millinery
eclipse. She regards business woman
thoughtfully for a moment Then a
trlimphant light suddenly comes into
her eyes. She fairly snatches tbe hat
from the business woman's head).
Sister (gleefully) "They don't have
Judos. But" (She seizes the old
bat and stuffs it Inside the other one
then replaces the new hat on business
woman's head where it perches in a
most uprightly if somewhat precari
ous way).
Business woman (regarding herself
with more or less satisfaction In the
mirror) "You're a genius!" (Wheed-
lngly). "You're so awfully clever and
bo very very brave! In fact I don't
think I ever knew such a clever
brave person. Won't you go and see
if you can with honeyed words and
sweet smiles persuade somebody to
sell this hat to me?" Chicago Dally
