Paris physicians have come forward
with the warning that playing cards
are peculiarly adapted to the carrying
of germs, while the conatant paasing
of tbe cards from hand to hand multi
plies the chances of contagion. Bridge,
it is declared, is a sure means of
spreading lagrippe. Effort to treat the
cards with chemicals that discourage
microbes are not approved by players,
who notice an oily feeling In treated
cards and declare that It brings bad
lock. The only thing to do, unless
card players are willing to go on tak
log chances, is to have fresh packs at
hand and change tho cards at every
deal.

King Alfonso of Spa2n is the wfeert
monarch of his day. He knows that

so in Paris he is making 'r.eads with
the reporters.
When tbe farmers of certain west-
ern states in the early "70s arose
against tbe railways there was a gen-
eral disposition to treat them with
contempt. Were they not a lot of
ignorant frontiersmen? What chance
had tbey against the railways? What
did they know about railway manage-
ment? Was not tbe railway, in com-
mon with other Industries, amenable
to competition? Those In the higher
walks of life, with rare exceptions,
deprecated tbe attitude of tbe farm-
ers, says the Popular Science Month-
ly. Their po«!t!on was grossly exag-
gerated and misrepresented. Tbe
rantlngs of their more extreme spokes-
men were cited as proof that they
were wholly without any Just ground
for complaint. Many thoojrbt them
bent on confiscation. The bard times
following tbe panic of 1873 were laid
at tbe door of the granger legislation.
Nevertheless, the main contentions of
th farmers were upheld by the su-
preme court Tbe granger movement
did much toward changing the rail-
way policy of the nation.

For the benefit of the nerwoas cases
that come to the doctor, it has been
assert>>d by Scripture that it Is Just
as necessary to know how emotional
they are as It is to Know how high
the temperature Is in case of fever,
says Harper s Magazine. Moreover,
in many cases it is necessary to find
out whst experiences in the past or
pres«nt life of the patient produce emo-'
tlons. For this purpose the patient
sits at ease with hands on the elec-
trodes, which may be so concealed in
tbe arms of his cbair that he is un-
aware that the most intimate process-
es of bis soul are being registered as
vnrious words are spoken or various
topics of conversation are discussed,

A roar of laughter Is still going u>
over a discovery made a few days ago
h. the custom bouse at New York.
And there seems to be something of
a borse laugh in it Tbe feminine
portion of the American public has
been aroused to Indignation by the
stringency with which tbe customs In-
sp- ctors In New York have been en-
forcing tbe provision of the new tariff
law which prohibits the importation
it aigrettes As women tourists ar-
riv -d from Europe proudly wesring
Kr. neb millinery bedecked ^ith these
Imperial feather sprays, the Inspec-
tors ruthlessly confiscated them
£ n mere man was strongly Inclined
to e opinion that this was crowding
th- limit somewhat * Protests there
in plenty, but they availed noth-
ing. in the business connected with,
rrklng shekels into tbe treasury of
congress to spend. Uncle Sam is re-
lei.tless. But no*- it has been discov-
ered that practically all this plumage
Is traceable to the stable rather than
to tbe birds Tbe aggregate valua-
ti n of this* loot In the New York cus-
tom house has shrunk from 94.000 to
$1( 0. says the Cleveland Leader. Moat
of the aigrettes are not feathers at all,
but merely borse hair. And the wom-
en can have them back, though per-
haps they will not want them. Wheth-
er or not the joke is more on the la-
dies than on tbe customs inspectors
is not clear. But certainly it Is not on
the foreign milliners, who received
aigrette prices for plain horse hair
that can be gathered on any splin-
tered hitching post.
Madame Polncare, wife of the pres-
ident of the French republic, does
not admire the practice of the courts
of Europe, when they pay marked so-
cial honors to the wives of kings, but
Ignore her very existence as wife of
a president When the president was
Invited to be the guest of King George
in England and wbetr he was enter-
tained by King Alfonso in Madrid,
Madame Polncare was not in evidence
and was not a*ked to be. The prac-
tice of ignoring the wife of the French
ruler in International courtesies is
said to have originated at the time
or tbe empire, when the Empress
Eugenie undertook to play a promi-
nent part In the politics of Europe.
Madame Polncare Is of Itsliah origin
and «as an actu-f? before her mar
:lagc. but she is described as a
br'gbt and Interesting personality,
snd the Duchess of Rohan and other
representatives of rrench royalist so-
ciety have accepted her without a
qiestlon.
Commenting on the fact that how-
ever Inaccessible a business taan may
be to callers, he will generally an-

Is a person of Importance, or has
something of vital imp<yt to communi-
cate. It is just a matter of luck, and

how deep be may be In the conduct
of his iff sirs with others actually
