TAFT'S JOURNEY ENDED President Made Last Speech of Trip at Richmond, Va. HIS ATTITUDE TO SOUTH President Announces What He Would Like Congress to Do In Way of Legislation—Message Outlined. Richmond, Va., — "During my sixty days of travel, there has been a moment or two of deliberation, and during that time I have been studying what it is the duty of an executive to recommend to an incoming congress in respect to future legislation, and when I think of the number of things congress ought to do, I am staggered lest it may not find time to do them." In the final speech of his 13,000-mile trip through the west and south before an immense audience, President Taft thus prefaced a preliminary statement of some of the recommendations his first annual message to congress would contain. The anti-trust law, he declared, needs enforcing, and the interstate commerce law amendment, "in order to give the interstate commerce tribunal more power to prevent the delays which are now incident to appeals to the court." He declared his favor of a postal savings bank, and declared that "we must improve our legal procedure so as to make it both in criminal and civil cases more simple, more rapid, and less expensive; and I mean to recommend to congress the appointment of a commission to take up that subject." Mr. Taft said he believed the time of federal health insurance TARTS Attitude to South. "When I was in the south before," he said, "and before I came to be president, but when I had a reasonable expectation of succeeding to that office, I said that I was anxious, so far as the executive could, to show to the southern people that in the eye of the executive and the administration at Washington they were as closely a part of the union, and as much entitled to its consideration in every respect, as any other part of the country. That I said it was not possible for the executive to show other than in speech, except by the appointment to federal office of men whose appointment would commend itself to the communities in which they live, that they might regard those appointees not as agents of an alien government, but as representing their own government. Now, insofar, as I have been able, I have attempted to carry out that policy. A year has not yet elapsed, and you must give me three more years in order to demonstrate my sincerity in that regard. "We have reached a point in this country when we can look back, not without love, not without intense pride, but without partisan passion, to the events of the civil war," continued the president. "We reached a point, a point, a glad to say, when the north admire to the full the heroic of the south, and the south admire to the full the heroes of the north "I am glad to say that in my own alma mater of Yale we have established an association for the purpose of erecting within her academic precepts a memorial not to the northern Yale men who died, not to the southern Yale men who died, but to the Yale men who died in the civil war. And so it is that I venture to hope that the project suggested by my predecessor, President Roosevelt, may be alluded to by me with approval and the expression of the hope that it is coming to fruition, to-wit, that there should be a great memorial in honor of General Robert E. Lee in the establishment of what he himself would value most highly, a great school of engineering at Washington and Lee University, and I take this opportunity to express my deep sympathy in that movement and my desire to aid it in every way possible and proper." Talk to Negroes. The president's talk to the negro delegation was devoted mostly to the subject of education. He said he would attend a meeting of the board of trustees at Hampton Institute on November 20, and felt a very deep interest in the work of that institution The President in Washington. Washington, D. C.-After an absence of more than three months, during which he has made a 13,000-mile trip through the west and southwest, President Taft has returned to Washington. President Taft said that he would not make any of the important diplomatic appointments that are pending until after January 1. He will not fill the vacancy on the supreme bench until after congress meets. $150,000,000 MORTGAGE Seaboard Air Line Railway Bonds ita Property.

THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1909. John Kennedy, New York Millionaire, Dispense of Over $60,000,000. New York City—John Steward Kennedy, one of America's little-known rich men who died of whooping cough in his New York residence recently, left bequests of more than $25,000,000 to religious, charitable and educational institutions in his will, filed for probation here. The gift is the largest, single contributions of its kind ever made, and the beneficiaries include fifty-nine and educational and church institutions in all parts of the United States and one abroad. Nearly half of the $25,000,000 goes to institutions connected with the Presbyterian Church, of which Mr. Kennedy had been an active member for many years. Other large beneficiaries are the American Bible Society, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the New York Public Library, the United Charities of New York, Columbia University and Robert College, Constantinople. Aside from these gifts, Mr. Kennedy left approximately $35,000,000 to his wife and his relatives and a great number of his friends and employees. Born near Glasgow in 1830, Mr. Kennedy came to America in 1850 as aged for his first year with concern. In 1857 he joined the New York banking-firm of Morris K. Jesup & Co., and about eleven years later established the house of Kennedy & Co. He retired from active participation in the business in 1883. BIGAMIST ON TRIAL Married to Five Women, He Was After Two More. Cleveland, Ohio—The evidence of five wives and two fiances was produced by government officers in the trial of Lucian Pickett, on trial in the United States court here on the specific charge of procuring under false pretense $1,000 from Miss Allie Greasley, a crippled woman from Springdale, Pa. One after another the women took the witness stand, and told, in tears, how Pickett had promised to marry them; how they had given him considerable sums of money and how, finally, he had gone away, usually after, some times before, the wedding. He added to the Chicago school teacher, said she had given Pickett $750 on his promise to marry her. The marriage did not take place, but postoffice inspectors produced evidence to show that Pickett had already been married four times. Miss Allie Greasley, nearly helpless from a spinal affliction, testified that Pickett was the only man who had ever wooed her, and that she gave him $1,000 to establish him in business. A marriage license was issued, but the wedding did not take place. Other women who testified were Mrs. George E. Pickett of Cena, Pa.; Mrs. Ellen E. Pickett of Albany, N. Y.; Mrs. Lula Emrich Pickett Robinson of New York, who procured a divorce from the man, and Mrs. Alma Mulls of Macon, Ill. Pickett says he served a term in Joltit penitentiary for bigamy. "SOUIRREL HUNTERS" PAID. Forty-Seven Years After They Served Soldiers Get Wages. Cincinnati, Orlo.—Forty-seven years after they served as volunteer soldiers to protect Cincinnati from a threatened raid by confederate troops, the "Squirrel Hunters" of Cincinnati have received their pay. In the mall received by a number of Cincinnations were checks for $13, a month's pay for a private soldier in the United States army. In 1862 General Kirby Smith's raiders made a dash through Kentucky, and it was feared that they planned an attack on Cincinnati. Governor Todd of Ohio called for sixty thousand and volunteers to mobilize at once in Cincinnati, and men and boys with squirrel rifles and the old family fowling pieces trekked to the city in large numbers, awaiting the approach of the expected foe. The confederates got within a few miles of Covington, but turned aside, giving Cincinnati a wide berth. Efforts were made a number of times to secure payment, but nothing was done until at the recent session of congress an appropriation was made giving each "squirrel hunter" a month's pay. OCEAN DISASTER. Six Lives Were Lost When Ships Collided. New York City—Belated news of a disaster at sea, in which at least six lives were lost, was brought to New York. Six members of the crew of the barkentine John S. Bennett, Captain James Frith, bound from New York to Halifax, with a cargo of coal, were drowned when the vessel was sunk in a collision of Block Island Sound, to be the Merrill C. Hart of Thomaston, Maine. The schooner also is believed to have been lost, with all her crew. How many men she carried is not known here. 14 Persons Killed In Wreck Vancouver, British Columbia. — A runaway car crashed into a crowded passenger car on the British Columbia Railway Company's interurban line.

Seven were injured, two perhaps fatally. $500,000 From Tips. New York City—Tips and his savings were so wisely invested by Jas. Thielman, waiter at a restaurant, that when he died, recently he left an estate valued at half a million dollars. HYPNOTIC SPELL FATAL VAIN EFFORTS TO RESURRECT Professor Everton, Who Threw Simpson Into Trance, Is Under Arrest Charged With Murder. Somerville, N. J. While Arthur Everton, self-styled "professor" and traveling hypnotist, sobbed in his cell, three calm medical men witnessed a wretched performance in the morgue of the Somerville hospital. There William A. Davenport, secretary of the mayor of Newark, and a student of hypnotism, vainly tried to bring back signs of life in the rigid body of Robert Simpson, a former street car conductor of Newark, who died apparently after having been put into a hypnotic trance by Everton before a large audience at the Somerville theater. Davenport failed. Simpson was declared officially dead, and an autopsy was held. Meanwhile, charged with manslaughter, unnerved and shaken, Everton remained in prison, where he must await the action of the grand jury as a sequel to a stage trick familiar throughout this country and abroad. I was at the piteous insistence of Everton, while in jail after his ineffectual attempts to revive Simpson, that Davenport, a friend of Everton, came into the case. Notwithstanding the declarations of physicians that Simpson was dead, Everton pleaded that Davenport be allowed to attempt to revive him. Accordingly, the autopsy was postponed and the student of hynotism was summoned. Simpson's body, covered with a black cloth,"lay in the morgue at the hospital when Davenport arrived. In the presence of Dr. W. H. Long, county physician; Dr. Charles H. Halstead and Dr. Francis McConaughy, he immediately began his attempt to revive the unfortunate man. First he felt of the body to detect any possible heart-beats. Falling in this, he placed his ear on the victim's chest. Then, involving the power of suggestion, he spoke in the dead man's ear. "Bob," he said; "Bob, you heart action—your heart action—your heart action is beginning. It is beginning." "Well," said Davenport, after a pause, he's dead." Then he went out, and the medical men began preparations for the autopsy. Simpson, the victim, was 35 years old, and was accustomed, it is said, to drinking heavily. It is generally admitted that he was intoxicated during the test. Eight physicians assisted in performing the autopsy and they issued a signed statement at its conclusion that death was due to rupture of a lung, norta, the trunk line of the arterial system. This indicated, according to the coroner, that death primarily was due to natural causes—and that the man probably had been suffering for some time from aneurism. CANAL HALE COMPLETED. All the Work Will Be Finished in the Next Four Years. Washington, D. C.-The cut at Culebra, the backbone of the Isthmus of Panama, was half completed on October 23, according to reports from the canal zone. At that time, 39,002,299 cubic yards had been excavated and a like amount of digging remained to be done. This gigantic cut will be nine miles long, and will have a width of three hundred feet at the bottom which will be forty feet above the sea level, the normal level of the water being fixed at eighty-five feet above the sea. Its completion is said to be assured within four years. SKELETON OF PRIMITIVE MAN. Prehistoric Barying Ground is Discovered in Ohio. Ashtabula, Ohio.—Prehistoric burying grounds, which may rival the famous Great Serpent Mound near Cincinnati, were discovered at Point Park Hill, near here, when workmen unearthed the complete skeleton of a primeval man. The femur is curved like that of the ape, the tibia is flat at the joint and humerus has a perforation no longer found. The skull slopes back and the lower jaw protrudes. INDIANS EXCLUDED FROM LAND. Washington, D. C. — The United States supreme court denied the appeal from the circuit court of the Eastern district of Oklahoma, of about 13,000 persons of Choctaw and Chickasaw Indian blood, excluded by the Dawes commission, the secretary of the interior, or by the legislative commission known as the Choctaw-Chickasaw citizenship court, from participating in the distribution of the Choctaw and Chickasaw lands in Oklahoma, and funds derived from the sale of these lands. The Indians appealed to the supreme court from the decision of the Oklahoma court. PELLAGRA CONFERENCE Physicians Meet at Columbia, S. C., and Form Permanent Organization. Columbia, S. C.—"While we regard Mr. Rockefeller's princely gift for the hookworm at its true value, we say one million dollars for the battle against the disease of pellagra would be fare more valuable." declared Colonel E. J. Watson, South Carolina's commissioner of agriculture, commerce and industries, in an address on the economic factors of the pellagra problem in South Carolina, before the first national conference on pellagra. Colonel Watson has made a careful study of pellagra, because of the generally accepted theory that it is due to the consumption of impure corn and corn products. Unless preventive measures are taken without delay, he said, the corn industry will be seriously threatened. He declared that not only the federal government, but the corn-consuming states as well must put into force a rigorous inspection of corn and corn products. Dr. George A. Zeler, superintendent of the State Hospital for the Insane, Peoria, Ill., views the situation with alarm, and in concluding an address, telling of the recognition of pellagra in Illinois and the means taken to control it, declared he believed the country is threatened with a national scourge. While the majority of the 5,000 identified cases of pellagra in the United States are in the south, the disease is by no means confined to this section, and Dr. Zeler predicted that it would very soon be as widespread throughout the entire Mississippi valley as in the south. In the course of his remarks, Dr. Zeler touched briefly upon the hook worm, and created a mild sensation when he suggested that many thousands of the federal prisoners who died in the confederate stockade at Andersonville, Ga., during the civil war, were victims of the hook worm. "And, perhaps, after all," declared Dr. Zeller, "the monument recently erected at Andehsonville to the memory of Captain Wirz, commandant of that prison," is not so much out of place as so many of us at the north have wont to believe. "Not alone corn and the ordinary product of food made of that cereal, but the distilled spirits of grain, 'corn licker, plays an important part in the cause of the dread pellagra,' was declared by more than one of the distinguished physicians in a tendance. Aupuncture these men who are to investigate what of this country is considered a "new" disease there is a growing conviction, according to several of the speakers, that pellagra already is making its ravages upon horses, cows, hogs, etc., An interesting feature of the conference was the presentation of several patients with well-developed cases of the disease. Washington, D. C. — Following the donation of $1,000,000 by John D. Rockefeller to be used in fighting the hook worm in the south, officials of the treasury and the public health and marine hospital service have received information that two other $1,000,000 donations are likely to be worthcoming soon—one from Mrs. Russell Sage, to be used in extending the work for the eradication of tuberculosis; the other from Andrew Carnegie for fighting pellagra. The understanding is that these sums will be placed at the disposal of the same general authorities associated with the public health and marine hospital service. QUEEN JOINS MOTHERS. Helena of Italy to Work for Welfare of Children. Atlantic City, N. J.—Queen Helena of Italy is to become a member of the International Congress of Mothers, according to letters received from the Italian embassy at Washington by the board of managers of the National Congress of Mothers at their session here. In expressing a desire to join in the work for the welfare of children of the world, Queen Helena declared her intention of sending a special envoy to the meeting of the organized mothers of the land to be held at Denver next year. It is expected that other European sovereigns will follow suit. Longshoreman on Strike.

Burke. a New York capitalist, was awarded a judgment of $552,000 against St. Clair county, Missouri, in the federal court at Kansas City, because that county in 1870 floated bonds for the Lebo and Nitooh railway, which was never built. That oral betting does not constitute bookmaking within the meaning of the so-called anti-race track gambling laws of New York, is in effect, the decision of the court of appeals in Albany, N. Y., affirming an order of the lower courts for the discharge from custody of Orlando Jones and Sol Lchenstein, who were indicted on a charge of bookmaking. Panay, 'an' island of the Visayas group, Philippines, was crossed by a tycoon. The storm was especially severe in Capz prince, where many homes were destroyed. Five thousand persons are homeless, and much property and crops were destroyed. The wind, which was of hurricane force, was accompanied by heavy rains, and much of the country is flooded. BABIES' LIVES WASTED indifference of Health Officers and Physicians to Registration of Births Scored in Government Bulletin. Washington, D. C.—American race waste—more serious than race suicide—is pointed out in Census Mortality Bulletin 104 in which its estimated that annually the United States from 100,000 to 200,000 babies under 5 years of age die from preventable causes. The great loss of life among the little ones at the period when they are most loving and most lovable could be prevented. Such is the opinion of Dr. Cressy L. Wilbur, chief statistician for vital statistics of the census bureau, who prepared the bulletin, on the basis of present day knowledge of sanitary measures. For the accomplishment of effective preventive work in this direction, Dr. Wilbur holds that the prompt registration of all births and the mere careful and precise statement of causes of death by physicians are essential. In analyzing and comparing the totals of death returns for the year 1908, as set forth in the bulletin, those for age periods show a somewhat increased per cent of deaths of infants under 1 year for 1908. Of the total number of deaths, 691,917 returned for 1908, nearly one-fifth were of infants under 1 year of age. In this connection, Dr. Wilbur quotes Professor Irving Fisher's conclusion that of all the diseases of infancy, having the median age of 1 year, 47 per cent may be prevented and that of the diseases of childhood having median age 2 to 8 years, 67 per cent may be prevented. More than one-eighth of a million babies under 1 year of age, and fully 200,000 children under 5 years of age, died among about one-half of the total population of the United States BEFORE AND AFTER MODEL OBJECTS BEFORE AND AFTER MODEL OBJECTS. Doctor Smoothed Half Woman's Wrinkles: Left the Rest. New York City—Mrs. Ella Houghton, a rich widow living in a first class hotel, is complainant in a police court, against a woman beauty doctor, Mrs. Houghton's face presents a strange sight. One half is as clear of wrinkles as that of a young girl. The other, as Mrs. Houghton told the court, is marked with crow's feet. The beauty doctor, according to Mrs. Houghton, had refused to complete the job of rejuvenating her complexion until she would grow and accept the reception at the Ansonia with her face in its present condition as a "before and after" advertisement. BURNED STOCK OF TUBACCO. After Being Converted Merchant Destroyed Goods. "Wichita, Kan.—"If it is wrong to smoke tobacco it is wrong to sell it." Thus was the conclusion of N. Brees, a grocer of this city, after professing religion at a revival meeting here and he piled his entire stock of smoking and chewing tobacco in the street and burned it. "When the last bit of the offending leaves had crumbled to ashes Brees exclaimed; "I have won that battle with the devil." His fellow converts followed him into his store and held a short revival service. CHINESE EMPRESS BURIED. Thousands of Mourning Chinamen Lined the Route. Pekin, China.—The cortegue accompanying the body of the late dowager empress of China on its 80-mile journey to the eastern tombs, left the Forbidden City and passed outside of Pekin.

The new imperial guards escorted the foreign diplomat, who participated in the procession, for a distance of 500 yards. NEXT WAR IN THE AIR. Aviator Herring Says Germany Is All Reassured Philadelphia, 'Pa.—The next war will be decided in the air," said M. B. Herring, who took a prominent part in the aviation contests last summer in France, in an address before the Engineer's Club of this city. No body of men, he declared, within a range of dirigible war, balloons could possibly help being wiped out. Some of the German war dirigibles have carried three rapid fire machine guns, said Mr. Herring, and have been able to keep up a continuous fire for two hours. CONFEDERATE REUNION DATE CHANGED Veterans Will Meet in Latter Part of April Next Year. Atlanta, Ga.—General Clement A.

Whiting of Mobile of the committee in charge of the next confederate veterans' general reunion, in which he heartily approves of April 26, 27, and 28 as the time for holding the next confederate reunion. These dates were suggested by General Whiting. Reunions were formerly held in May, and the change was decided on in view of the fact that the weather is so warm in the month of May. LATE NEWS NOTES. Edward William Bedford, the Canadian who was arrested in London, England, charged, on his own confession, with the murder of Ethel Kinrade at Hamilton, Ont., has now admitted that there was no truth in his history. On being brought up in the Bow street police court, however, he was again remanded in order to allow the police to make more complete inquiries.

A booklet just published by the Republic describes the eighty-two papers that are members of the club. There are fifty-five dallies and twenty-seven weekles, twenty-two of which are published in New England, thirty-eight in the middle Atlantic states, nine in Ohio, one in Indiana, eleven south of Mason and Dixon's line, and one west of the Mississippi river. Mrs. Sarah T. Rorer, the famous culinary expert, has shocked the Mothers' club of New York city by declaring that no men should have anything to do with the bringing up of his son, other than providing foot and clothing for him. In discussing the subject, "How to Mould the Boy's Character," Mrs. Rorer said: "Men are not fit to bring-up children. They are too irritable and cross to assume any control of their children, largely because of their worries in the present condition of the commercial world. Men are not sufficiently gifted with patience to teach children." An explanation of what was believed to have been a boiler explosion on a Lake Michigan steamer was furnished with the discovery of a huge meteor on a farm five miles south of Manistee, Mich. The meteor was still warm and ten feet of it projects above the ground. The spot where it fell is about half a mile from Lake Michigan. Judge Thomas G. Jones, of the federal court in Montgomery, Ala., has affixed his signature to an order for the sale of the properties belonging to J. A. Prestwood of Covington county, Alabama.

Washington "Humane laws for children under eighteen years and for animals" That is the caption over an executive order of President Tuft as printed in the Canal Record, the official paper of the isthmian canal commission, just received in Washington, Offenses against children and against animals are made misdemeanors. Any agent of a regularly organized humane society in the canal zone may be commissioned as a special policeman to enforce this order. It remained for the lsthmian canal commission to give the latest exemplification of the old saying, "The Better the Day the Batter the Deed." According to an official report, just received in Washington, "the greatest amount of concrete laid in a single day was placed on Sunday, October 24, when 1,304 cubic yards, were added to the 33,248 cubic yards that had been placed up to the close of work, October 23." The largest number of employee at work on the canal and Panama railroad has just been reported to Washington. The force numbered 35,210. A decrease in the number of skilled American employees, was explained as-indicating a tendency toward a reduction in the number of supervisory positions. ES Pee ne Et ey cane) eee ee?

SESSION OF 1884 LEGISLATURE. Great Reunion of Georgia Lawmakers of That Year Planned. Atlanta, Ga.—aAn extraordinary ses sion of the state legisalture of 1884 5 may be called at an early date by Governor Henry D. McDdniel. ‘Such an occurrence will be mos! unuzual, but it was discussed ver; seriously at a meeting held in the of fice of Judge Richard B.

F, Abbott of Atlanta. All the above were members of that leg islature, For the business in hand, these gen- tlemen dscided that Governor Brown, the “present administration and the legislature of 1909-10 would have to be ignored. On the occasion of this extrarordinary legislative session, any man who was not-a_member of the notable body which met in Atlanta in November of 1884 wil be a rank sutsider, The legislature which met that probably ‘contained as.many men who have since risen in positions of greater prominence in the state as any legislativé body which ever met ja the ‘state. That was the legislature which Henry W, Grady adjourned “in the Lame of the American people” on the occasion of the first election of Gro- ver’ Cleveland as president. ’ Hon. W. A.

To the Brethren of the Missionary Baptist Convention of Georgia: In view of the fact that we are to meet again in annual session, in the month of November this year, I have deemed it expedient to address this circular letter to the Brotherhood.

Let it be borne in mind that we will not be favored with the certificate plan in November, account the convention; but instead of get- ting certificates there will be reduc- ed rate return tickets on sale Nov- ember 7, 8 and 9, from all points in Georgie to Atlanta. Rates of 3 cents per mile plus 25c, with final limits to return November 16th, 1909, This Srrangement is cheaper than using the certificates. There is to be an automobile’ exhibition in Atlanta the wame time, and the rate above men- tionea has beeri granted on that aecount, So when I applied for the usual certificate plan the Company advised me that it would make said rate: apply to Convention also. - Connection with the programmes, I send you this letter so that there will be! no mistake. Take due notice, and be governed accordingly. We have learned that changing the Convention from June to November does not meet the approval of a*host of brethren. It will be remembered that the change was recommended in the Fresident’s annual address, which paper was referred to a cosamittee; the committee reported favorably and subsequently the convention adopted and approved it by her votes, Let's go up to Atlanta In full force, and if the change is not the best, let’s urge that the convéntfon may re- scind its action; but, personally, I think: the change: from June to No- vember 1s best. 1st.

SOAPSUDS AND SATIN By Georgia B. Flinn. Polly was washing. Her sleeves were rolled up, disclosing a pair of round, dimpled elbows and some very pink fingers from contact with the hot suds. Her cheeks were no less rosy, than her fingers, and the wavy dark hak was drawn neatly back from a white, thoughtful brow, for Polly was thinking as she scrubbed away—thinking hard. She wrung out a bath tablecloth from its foamy bath and paused to inspect its snowy whitness. "I wish," she said with sudden wistfulness, "that I had a red satin coat like Julla's. I look so good in red, too." She sighed enviously as a mental vision of Julia in all her finery rose before her. Julia Dent was considered the best dressed girl in town, and her father being a lawyer, made her very popular among the young set. She always appeared in the latest styles quite before the other girls had heard of them, which awoke considerable envy in the hearts of the less fortunate ones. Of late there had been even more envy among them because Walter Radcliffe, the broker's handsome young son, was home from college, and he was considered a critic on style and appearance. It was the general belief that he and Julia Dent would become engaged before his vacation was over, as she seemed to be the only girl in town who could suit his fastidious taste in dress. Julia knew this and she straightway ordered a new wardrobe, among which was the much enjoyed coat. Polly was thinking how nice it must be to be rich, wear beautiful clothes and not be obliged to spoilone's hands by housework. She thought, too, how splendid it would be to be looked upon with approval by Walter Radcliffe. How he must admire Julia in her red satin coat! And the prettiest thing Polly possessed was a white linen dress embroidered by her own pink fingers. How hateful and commonplace it seemed now besides Julia's rich clothes, and she had felt so proud of it before! But Walter Radcliffe had complimented her the last time she wore it, so it could not be so plain and commonplace, after all, since he admired it. Polly's cheeks grew roster as the laundry work progressed, and a big wet spot appeared on the front/of her gingham apron. Soon the basket was full of clean white garments, and lifting them in her strong arms Polly started for the back yard, but a musical voice called her name, and looking toward the door she beheld a vision in shimmering red satin. "Oh, you poor dear!" the vision exclaimed, advancing gingerly into the steaming, suds-scented room. "I came after you, but I don't suppose you will go now." "Go! Go where?" Polly inquired in trifle eagerly. "Why, for an auto ride with Walter Radcliffe." Julia explained importantly. "A party of us are invited, including yourself. We are to meet at my house and will start in an hour." Polly-dropped the heavy basket and a look of keen disappointment settled on her pretty face. She had never rode in an auto in her life. Must she lose this splendid chance just because— Her eyes roved over the disordered kitchen, the tubs full of unwashed garments met her glance like a challenge, the suds-spattered foos, her red, swollen hands and wet apron. Could she finish her work and get ready in an hour? No, it would take two hours at the very least. Her eyes smarted with tears, but she stainfully brushed them aside and bravely reconciled herself to her disappointment. "I am sorry, Julla, but you tell Mr. Radelife that duty bound me to home to-day, though I would like to have gone so much." "Oh, fudge, Polly!" Julla exclaimed, surveying her new coat over her shoulder. "Put the things away and come along. You've just got time to dress." "Polly shook her head. 'No, Julla, I couldn't do that. I promised mother I would do the washing, and I'll do it even at the cost of such a pleasure as an auto ride." A few minutes later, as Julia was hurrying home she met Walter Radcliffe unexpectedly on turning a street corner. "Our friend Polly cannot join our auto party to-day," she informed him after the usual greetings were over. The young man's face fell. "So? I am, indeed, sorry to hear it. I hope she is not fill." Julia laughed. "Not at all! I found her just now shoulder deep in the soapsuds, her cheeks and hands scarlet. I suggested putting aside the work and coming along with us, but she would not shirk her duty to her mother. Poor little household drudget!" A peal of laughter followed her words, which somehow jarred on Walter Radcliffe, and like a Nighting flash his thoughts and feelings underwent a change. "I am sorry she cannot come," he said earnestly, "but," his eyes grew a trifle cold as he looked at her. "I am sure such faithfulness, deserves reward, and for Polly's sake I shall postpone the auto trip until to-morrow." Polly was hanging out the clothes, so deep in her disappointment that she did not hear the footsteps approaching until a tall, syllisly dressed, young man stood before her, hat in hand. Polly uttered a surprised "Oh!!" and made a wild plunge to run out of sight, but was caught in a pair of strong athletic arms, and soon found herself gazing into Walter Radcliffe's merry blue eyes, which held in them a light so strange, so thrilling, that poor little Polly was actually frightened, yet her heart futtered exquisitely at the same time: "Polly, I love you!" he cried with the vehemence of youth and passion. "I want you to marry me! Will you, little girl?" She freed herself from his arms and stared at him. "You marry me!" she exclaimed, bewildered. "Why, where is Julia? I thought you were going to marry her—she is so stylish, while I—oh, dear—" "You are the best little girl in all the world, and I want you, Polly! Listen! To-morrow we are going for a long, auto ride, and I want you to promise to go along as my betrothed wife. Will you, dear?" And Polly, like all the rest of her sex, answered "Yes."—Boston Post. The Wiles of Women. BY TOM P. MORGAN. "Bewar!" ominously said good old Parson Bagster, addressing the saddle-hued young. theological student. "Bewar' o de wiles o' women!—an ee-specially widahn women! All tho' life ode pafway of de preacher am besot by, designin' women in sheep's clothin', seekin' whom dey mought devour.

The Kaiser's only daughter, Princess Luise Victoria, is to be confirmed and to come out in the world after her seventeenth birthday. She has been kept back much less than English princesses, says the Gentlewoman, and fashionily dressed has visited endless theatres and concert halls and driven her own pony cart in the Thiorgarten and ridden there ever since. she was a little girl. Most distinguished in appearance the Princess is' as full of pluck and spirit as any of her six brothers. FASHIONS OF THE DAY 100 New York City.—The blouse waist which includes a chemisette is a pretty one and will be much worn this season. Here is a model that can be utilized both for the gown and for the separate blouse, and which allows THE LADY'S JACKET. a choice of the new fancy sleeves and of plain ones. In the illustration it is made of crepe de Chine with trimming of banding, and is combined with tucked messaline. It will be found charming for cashmere, how- T ever, and also for the silks that promise to be so extensively worn, while for the chemslette, the deep cuffs and the trimming of the sleeves any contrasting amateria is appropriate. If an elaborate blouse is to be made, all-over lace or jetted net would be appropriate, for the simpler one tucked silk is always pretty. The blouse is made over a fitted lining, and consists of fronts, backs and chemisette portions. The fronts and backs are tucked becomingly and the waist is closed invisibly at the back. When the fancy sleeves are used they are arranged over linings. The plain ones can be finished in any way that may suit the fancy. The quantity of material required for the medium size is three yards twenty-one or twenty-four, two and three-eighth yards thirty-two or one and five-eighth yards forty-four inches wide, with one and five-eighth yards of tucked silk and five and one-half yards of banding. Ankle Straps Now... Although ankle straps have been seen all along on low shoes for children, it is not until lately that they have come into general use for grown-ups. Modified Klimono. The modified klmono, which is the old wrapper with a Japanese touch in the sleeve, and banded edge around the neck, and downward, remains a favorite for bedroom wear. New Girdles. Elastic girdles seem to have taken a firm stand in fashion, and they are a rather becoming adjunct to any costume. Formerly they, were made in only a few colors, and were much beaded, but this year they are called chiffon elastic, to suit; the desires of fashion, and are finished with really very handsome buckles. Fewer Tan Shoes. Fashionable women are not wearing tan shoes for the street. Hugo Algrettes. The advices as to hats are that they will be very large, with trimmings of huge algettes and enormous flowers. Empire Fan. The fashionable fan for the boudoir is the small Empire style, with hand paintings of Empire scenes, and pearl handle sticks set with vanity mirrors, says Dress. For evening use the very large fan is not considered smart at present; the medium size is preferred. The long, narrow, oval fan is out of date. Seven Gored Walking Skirt. The skirt that is plain at its upper portion and laid in plains at the lower is the very latest to have appeared. This one is smart in the extreme, provides fulness enough for grace in walking, yet is narrow and straight in effect, as the pleats are designed to be pressed flat. In the illustration it is made of the hop sacking that will be so much worn during the coming season, but it is appropriate for all skirting materials, those of the present as well as those of the future, and it will also be found a most satisfactory model for the entire gown and for the coat suit. The lines are all desirable ones and the skirt can be relied upon to be smart and satisfactory in every way. The skirt is cut in seven gores. There is an extension at the back edge of each gore below the scallops, and these extensions form the pleats. 1 the scallops are designed to be under-faced or finished in any way that may be preferred and afford excellent opportunity for the use of the fashionable buttons. The fulness at the back is laid in inverted pleats. ```markdown ``` The quantity of material required for the medium size is six and one-half yards twenty-seven, four and three-quarter yards fifty-two inches wide; width of skirt at lower edge four and one-half yards. Butterfly Bow on Hat. One of the artistic oddities in millinery—and an oddity that is pretty should be chronicled—is the butterfly bow, perched in front, at top of crown. These are made of ribbon, of jet, of rainbow gauze and of jet. They are used on a hat that is plainly trimmed with a wrapped scarfband. Novel Neckpieces. For slim-throated wearers some novel neckpieces show little bows arranged at the top of the stock. ORIENTAL EXAMINATION BREWERY HALL BREWERY HALL BREWERY HALL BREWERY The old Manor Hall is the pride of the city of Yonkers. The front part was built in 1632 by Frederick Philipse, the first Lord of the Manor of Phillipsburg. It was completed by the addition of the back part in 1745. The building remained in the possession of the Philipse family until 1779, when because of the toryism of the Frederick Philipse,ok that day—the third Lord of the Manor—it was consecrated by an act of the Legislature of New York. It was used by private families until 1835. Since 1874, it has been the City Hall of Yonkers. The old structure has had the best of care and is a perfect specimen of Colonial architecture.

A Russian correspondent writes: "The recent attack by brigands, the Monastery of Luganski, in the Ekaterinoslav district, was an excitation affair, though the Russian press gave few details beyond stating, without a word of comment, that among the dead hands with a virtual policeman and a Cossack in uniform. Attracted by the great treasure and valuable goods possessed by the munks, the brigands in the dead of night made an origi- nized attack on the monastery, which has a very sartificial position. The munks, who have a plentiful supply of arms, made a strong resistance, dugged sallying-out and engaged the enemy at close quarters, severed himself lasting a good hour, took place, and finally the Church triumphed."—The Graphic. Possibly the Iowa woman who was one of the joint inventors of the fire escape shown in the illustration once tried to slide down the old-fashioned and primitive rope escape and realized the crying need for an 'improve- ```markdown ``` ment. However that may be she and her co-inventor have devised an apparatus which is very simple and equally effective. This consists of a drum, which resembles a huge, good, and which is suspended from the window ledge, having a long straight edge for engagement with the wall. Around this drum one whole turn of a cable is taken, one end of the cable—the end near the window—having a seat attached. When the fire breaks out the person in the room climbs out over the window ledge, thrusts one leg over the seat, and, grasping the other end of the cable, lowers himself or herself gently to the ground. The turn of the cable over the drum prevents the rope from slipping and letting the seat down except as the slack is paid out—Washington 'Star.'

The gratitudiness of iscue is a cardinal article of the French scientist's creed. The tradition of his order "decrees" that discoverers calculated to affect the welfare of the race's apex of the common matriarchy of the tribe and must die, dropped, without money and without price, into the hands of all. Honor imposes upon him, a punishment detachment from the scramble of richest or a scientist to endeavor, to repatriateunity profit from his labs, in the highest degree "unprofessional"—most damping word. The commercial spirit of the age has thus far been powerless against the conservative attachment of the French scientists to this old-fashioned conception of professional dignity, which is terribly unpractical, surely its modern standards go, but which is nevertheless not without its beauty and nobility.

Every young man just becoming of age can register without paying this tax, These young men should be encouraged to pay this tax. Pass the word along. THE Board of Education met this week. At this meeting the petition of the white teachers for an increase in salary was passed upon and denied. THE TRIBUNE can hardly object to this increase, but from the salary now given it is by far larger than that given the colored teachers who do harder work and have more children with which to contend. It would have been a great injustice to increase the pay of the white teachers and allow that of the colored ones to remain as it is. Again the board considered the adding of another school in the southern section for the few a white children, but not a word was said about the thousands of colored children without any facilities whatever. THE SAYANNAH TRIBUNE is author of the information that two-thirds of the automobile drivers and chauffeurs are colored men, and also regrets that some of these men who are trusted much by their employers do not always give a faithful service. The above is clipped from the Jacksonville Metropolis. The article of our dealt with affairs locally. While in the main it is correct, yet THE TRIBUNE would dislike for our readers to get the idea that we are knocking our chauffeurs. Far from it, because these young men are capable and efficient, and many of them are looked upon as being indispensible to their employers. To demonstrate their efficiency: when the presidential party visited the city, nearly all of the employed chauffeurs were colored young men. The honor of driving the President fell to the lot one of our boys. Every possible efforts are being made by the white citizens to properly train their boys, and having such institutions and places where they may congregate for upliftment and inspiration. This gives the boys higher ideals of life, thereby growing up to be useful and healthy men. For our boys noth- ing is being done. We have no boys' club where other than the shaking of the feet and a "good time" are considered. We have no Y. M. C. A., and the churches seemingly are not considering this problem and doing nothing to help the boys. The proper training of our young ones under present environments cannot be successfully done alone in the homes, therefore something should be done in a public way for their benefit. At present they are paying heavy tolls to the degraded pool rooms, dance hall, street corner revelry and many of them graduating in crime, or ending in shattered health. This is one of our problems that should be solved. ON several occasions we have approached the managers of the Savannah Theatre to give our people better accommodation and to allow them a part of the balcony on the second floor. The invariable reply would be that our people seem to be satisfied with the gallery accommodation because they are always there in large numbers, and it is asserted that the best class of our people go up there so there is no need of any more accommodation. For this very reason THE TRIBUNE has been trying to get our people, especially the ones of thought and standing to stay away at least a couple of seasons and let the management feel keenly the loss, but our advice would not be heeded and the result is still the same old peanut gallery where some of our prominent citizens and ladies bedecked in their best, show how much they care for a principle and prove that our people are willing to put up with any kind of treatment. This is one of the reasons why we can not secure many things that should be accorded us. DURING the week the editor of THE TRIBUNE was approached by several young men who spoke favorably of our stand for the bettering of the condition of our young men in saving their earnings and securing homes. Some of these young men declared that it is their purpose of "turning over a new leaf," and in a short time endeavor to secure a home. THE TRIBUNE is glad that its efforts are being fruitful and hope that we will have hundreds of young men to be fully determined to do likewise. There is no reason why they should not do so. In one small town we visited recently it was a rare thing to know of a colored person living in a rented home. In fact the ones who live in rented houses were looked upon reproachfully. The same can be obtained here. There are plenty of vacant lots that can now be secured cheaply, but in a few more years will increase in value. Purchase now, thereby putting your earnings to some use. Much have been said about pure milk recently, but should there not be some regulation for the display and cooking of food at the dago luneh stands in the city. These stands are generally next to the side walk. The contents are contaminated with the filth of the street and flies. These stands should be boycotted. - Referred to the Officers THE TRIBUNE has been asked about the non-meeting of the Ministers Evangelical Union and if same has been disbanded. The only reply we can give is that the Union has been holding regular sessions until the summer vacation and why the same have not been resumed, we cannot answer, but we respectfully refer the matter to the officers of the Union. The Congregational State Convention. The State Convention of Congregational Churches of Georgia will be held at the First Congregational Church of Marietta, November 17-21.

Washington, an old resident of Salem, was held Sunday, Oct. 31, at four p.m, from the Dickson Memorial Chapel Greenlaw cemetery, Salem. The Rev. James P. Franks officiated. A short service was held previously at 10:30 a.m, from her late home at No. 30 Wesley avenue in Dorchester. The services were exceptionally well, attended by her young friends, four of whom contributed beautiful and appropriate music. Miss Ella France sang a solo choir the Miss Crystal and Chloe Walker. A companion, Hattie Baker was accompanist. The services were in charge of the Rev. Fr. Fitts of St. Martin's Epi scopal church. The floral gifts were many and handsome. Miss Washington was a native of Salem but has lived for the last thirteen years in So. Boston and Dorchester where she attended the Boston public grammar and high schools. She has been confined to her home by illness for the past two years. She passed away peacefully Oct. 29th at the age of 17 years. 10 months and 15 days.—Boston Guardian. Colored Sailor Boys Given Big Ovation. On Wednesday evening of last week the colored sailors of the United States ships, in Bapst Church Franklin Square with a Musical and Literary programme, and a sumptuous banquet." The pastor Rev Willis Liones in a very explanatory way told how he had used every effort to entertain the colored sailors having learnt through the column of the newspaper that a provision had been made to entertain the white sailors and how readily the members of his own church and colored citizens responded to show their appreciation of the service the members of their race were rendering this great nation of which they form a part. The Rev N H Whitmire implored the blessing of the Diety upon the occasion and the Navy of the United States Mr W. H. Stikes rendered a splendid vocal solo President. B R Wright of the Georgia State Industrial College welcomed the sailors in one of his usual eloquent talks. Mr Frank Scott one of the sailors and a former pupil of the Maple Street public school responded and introduced others of his comrades. They spoke very interestingly of their short and long service in this department, all of which briefly gave the service a rich treat of insight into the service of the Navy for sixteen or more years. Prof John Meln忠 Principal of the Maple Street public school spoke in his usual pleasing way of the occasion and of what his school had done in foraging Frank Scott, a savannah boy for the navy of these great United States. He said he was the proud to realize more and more that his was a great of service. Mr R L Barnes said along other things that he was proud of the fact that his race was rendering valuable service every whale and prayed that more would receive the call to service. Some of the heading colored ministers and teachers and worthy citizens made up the audience. The Georgia State Industrial College Band and the church's choir furnished fine music. All took part in the rich vambles in the lecture room of the church served by a faithful committee of the members of the church. Prof J G Lemon of the G S I College served very acceptably as master of ceremonies. With a hearty wish for a long life of service in the navy by the sailor boys in black this occasion closed. This church which has been so well known through out this country for its broad hospitality, and contribution to every worthy racial effort through the thrift of its broad hearted pastor deserves much credit for this occasion as has been spoken by the sailor boys and other guests at the banquet. will be remembered in deeds more lasting than bronze and more polished than gold. F B B Church. The weather on Sunday was ideal. A large crowd accompanied Rev. Wright to Nicholsonboro Baptist Church. The hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Brown, Dea and Mrs. Grayson, Mr. and Mrs. Williams and others made lasting impressions. Licentiate Riloy read for the lesson John 3:1-8. Text was from John 3:14, subject, "The power of God." The sermon was much enjoyed Rev. Wright led the him "I was a wandering sheep." He asked those who felt the need of prayer to come to the mercy seat. Quite a number bowed and prayer was offered. We went down to the river where he baptized the two candidates. The communion service was very touching. He choir rendered some very sweet sections. Deacon Brown painted spit tied prayer mugs just before pream. He and we drove to the city varior. He homes and we drove to the city on Sun day night Rev. Wright read for the lesson the 41st Ps. His text was from Prob. 222. The subject was Consider & human equality." Rev. Wright preached an excellent sermon that was all. The choir sang "Bless the Loc to my soul" Rev Wright led the lyron "Come let us join" He invited those who felt the need of prayer to the mercy seat. A large crowd bowed and Licentiate W. Stewart offered prayer. Attend our service at any time. They certainly will benefit you. F. A. B. (Church. F. A. B. CHURCH Services at the F. A. Church Franklin Square were well, attended during the past week. Four candidates were baptized after the 11 clock service on last Sunday. The coronation service in the afternoon was impressive and attended by many visiting ministers of the city. Littie Luther Burns was christened in the arms of his mother at this service. The sermon been preached by the pastor Rev Willis L. Jones on last Sunday night from the Acts of the Apostles 26:18, subject "The pn. pose of the Gospel" was an able one. The evidence of how it was felt by his brothers was shown by the number of pet sons that thronged to the altar to receive the prayer when he had concluded his sermon. The pastor left for Atlanta, Ga., on Tuesday to attend the State Mj. valonary Convention. Miss Lucile Swift of Atlanta who have been spending a while with the pastor's family, left at her home Tuesday. Deacon Le stillmore left also to attend the Convince being a member of the Trustee Boa rd of Central City College which the convention fosters. The cotton picking pity at the church several weeks ago was novelty affair and netted the church an neat sum. Sister Jackson won the fi. prize and Sister Martha Dozier won the second prize. The pastor wishes to thank the generous citizens that responded so liberally towards entertain- ing the colored' sailor boys of the U.S. Ships that were in our port during last week. On tomorrow afternoon, the pastor, officers and mae'y of the members will commune with. Dr May of the Second Baptist Church. The Young men of the church have organized themselves as the 'Young Men's Progressive League' which bids fair to successful efforts on their part to do effectual church work.

At the eleven o'clock service the choir and congregation sang hymn No. 167 "O where shall rest be found." The text, Matt. 28-20, subject, "The abiding presence of Christ with his people." As usual this great subject was full of food for thought and was in keeping with the festivities of the day. Our members are paying their dollar money with great rapidity, we urge those that have not paid to do so as the time is at hand. Classes 25, 25, 33, 42, 30 and 23 are striving for honors.

Its Cunning and Wonderful Noiselessness--Its Enemies --- AVIATION IN ITS INFANCY. One of the reasons given by old writers for the crocodile being, worshiped, in Egypt, was the somewhat cryptic one that it "lald threesecore eggs and lived for threesecore years;" but from twenty to thirty is the common number 'of eggs found in a "clutch." In the reptile's easy code of ethics, however, its parental responsibilities end with the act of oviposition for having covered the eggs with a layer of sand it leaves the sun to do the rest (whence doubtless Shakespeare's "your mud and the operation of your sun") and leaves it also to the chneumon to do its worst. In some places it seems that water tortoises, too, eat crocodiles' eggs; but the chneumon is the real desolator of crocodile homes, scatching up the nests and eating or breaking the entire "sitting" at a meal. Crocodiles' eggs, however, are absurdly small, a mother twenty feet long being content with an egg no larger than that of a goose, and the newly hatched young, hardly more formidable than a common newt, are preyed upon by birds, which a little later the rapidly growing crocodile would like nothing better than to get within its reach, as well as doubtless by many other things, including old-crocodiles themselves. The real horror of the members of the crocodile tribe lies in their usual noiselessness. "They swim with great silence, making scarcely even a ripple on the water," says M. Du Challu, and the terror of the stealth of their approach is well conveved in Mr. Rudyard Kipling's: "Ripple Song!" "Walt, ah! wait," the ripple saith; "Malden, wait," for I am Death! The first sight of an alligator or crocodile, however large, sunning itself on a mudbank and pretending to be a stranded log is usually disappointing; and if it is lying with its mouth open, as in the sunshine they all love to do (wherefore, seeing them remaining so immovably in what looks like so strained an attitude, many visitors to the gardens go away declaring that the crocodiles are stuffed, it becomes almost absurd. But when you have come upon one unexpectedly with its head and forequarters out of the water, and have seen it slide noiselessly back until it disappears, and then even while you still watch the place where it vanished, not a movement, having so much as made the surface of the water quake, the hideous thing suddenly, still in complete silence, thrusts itself out upon the bank many yards away—it may be further off nearer to you—to lie a mere snag at the water's edge, waiting for what may come within its reach, whether you or another, the dreadfulness of the thing is very chilling. surface and returning without a ripple to betray them rise immediately below the quarry, which has by this time returned to drink in fancied security. By this trick he saw them again and again, catch birds which settled on branches overhanging the water. The chief food of most members of the family, and probably the entire food of some, is fish; but now that we know that a full grown rhinoceros, can he pulled into the water, and killed by a crocodile we can believe that few living things do not at one time or another call victims to them. "Horses, oxen, buffaloes, boars, mules and camels" is a list which one writer gives of animals which are known to have been eaten by crocodiles in Egypt. In South America jaguars and tapirs have been seen being seasided, pulled into deep water and 'drowned'; while as for man, consider the Mugger of Mugger Ghaut in Mr. Kipling's grewsome tale, "The Undertakers." According to old writers the ichneumon, besides eating crocodiles' eggs, would run into the full grown animal's open mouth and so down its throat, whence, after revelling, for a while amid Lovaiathan's vitals, it ate its way out of the dead carcass victoriously to daylight. The "hydra." it seems, did the same. But the dolphin's method was the more artistic, for being provided with a knife edged dorsal fin it swam underneath "the Crossing the Channel in twenty-five minutes, M. Blerlot has done easily the greatest of feats so far with an aeroplane. Zeppelin and the Wrights were before him in their different derial vessels, but there is a sensation and a success about the Brunelman's adventure that far out-distance those of the German and the American. Mr. Latham in a much larger machine that M. Blerlot has failed twice, and at the second try, his monoplane seems, to have been wrecked. This wreck is significant of much in the immediate future of aeroplaning. In enmails and storms these machines will often pierce up, and those who steer them will be killed. They are heavier than air, they are rapid, they can be steered, but the second and third of these conditions only apply itself late. encased, crocodiles" and sliced clean open the soft, unprotected parts hollow. In real life, however, the large crocodilia have probably no enemy but man, and even man without modern firearms were nearly helpless against them. "The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold; the spear, the dart nor the habergeon." "Canast thou draw out Leviathan with any hook?" asks the sacred writer. Herodotus says that in his day they could use a pig for bait. In India we know that they have been caught with goats, and M. Du Challieu tells that in Africa the Anengue "harpoon them with a rude jagged spear." Dlodorus, however, averred that they could only be taken in iron nets, and the general belief that they were beyond the power of man to capture is reflected in the medal which Augustus struck to commemorate his conquest of Egypt, with the crocodile chained to a tree, and the proud legend, "No one has bound me before." If in Egypt they bound the crocodile at all it seems to have been with garlands of flowers and chalns of gold and gems, a proceeding which interested the crocodile only in so far as it offered a chance for a succulent garlander coming within reach. The promiscuous beatification, which was shared with such things as cats and beetles, was after all but an indifferent compliment, nor even so was it seemingly universal among the Egyptians. "Those about Thebes and Lake Moeris consider them to be very sacred, * * * but the people who dwell about the city of Elephantina eat them." Which fairly redressed the balance; but we must conjecture that whether for worship or for the table the crocodiles were caught young.—London Times. Americans in London Society. Regretfully as one must acknowledge it, such novelties in the way of entertainments as have illumined the past rather dull season have been provided by American hostesses. The sofire Watteau gave recently in the garden of a house not a hundred miles from Sloane street was absolutely charming and original. It is wonderful what can be done with quite a commonplace "back garden" in a London square if the hostess only has ideas. This American one has many, and by means of roses, electric lights, artfully constructed little fountains and the most graceful measures—for it was pavanes and minnets and gavottes that were danced in suitable costname amid these picturesque surroundings—she transformed her little garden space into fairyland and transported, her guests to the eighteenth century.—Lady's Pictorial. Married on a Glacier. A novel marriage ceremony was performed at the highest point on Mount Tacoma glacier recently, when Miss Ada Rogers, of Puyallup, and Harry A. Green climbed to the snowy peaks of Mount Tacoma and were married by the Rev. J. Franklin Day. The wedding party left Puyallup at 4 o'clock in the morning. All scaled the dizzy-heights of Mount Tacoma 'until the highest point of the wedding party could reach was attained. There with the snowclad peaks above them and with the flowers of the fields below them the novel wedding ceremony was performed.—Tacoma Correspondence Spokane Spokesman Review. A Question of Grammar. Hetty's uncle, who was a school teacher, met her on the street one beautiful May day and asked her if she was going out with the Maying party. "No; I ain't going." "Oh, my little dear," said her uncle. "You must not say: I ain't going." You must say "I am not going," and he proceeded to give her a little lesson in grammar. "You are not going. He is not going. We are not going. You are not going. They are not going. Now, can you say all that, Hetty?" "Sure, I can," she replied, making a courtesy. "There ain't nobody going."—Luthoran. when the air is in a state kindly to the "aviator." No sooner is the air really hostile than down comes the vessel. It is a matter of life and death to the "aviator" that he should pick and choose his hour with nicety. The feat is curious and beautiful; one is not inclined to regard it at present as a great deal more than this. A little gas about aerial adventures is natural and excusable, but it is childish to write and falk as, some are writing of the aeroplane. There is, no place in the world where the clove trees thrives as well as in the islands of Zanzibar and Pemba. It is the principal product of the islands, and, together with the copra and the ivory brought from the mainland, cloves form the principal item of export. TRUTHFUL ADVERTISING THE BASIS OF SUCCESS.

The following snake story was told some years ago by a reputable citizen of Anson county: Driving along a public road one day he saw a toad frog crossing the road at top speed—hitting only the high places and few of them. As the frog disappeared in the bosky underbrush on one side a black snake in hot pursuit made its appearance on the other. The story teller followed the two into the bushes to see what the result would be. He had proceeded only a short distance when he found the frog at bay, facing the snake and with the latter circling about in the effort to make an attack from the rear. His frogalgal kept turning all the time, always facing the enemy. The reason of this manoeu re on the snake's past was that the frog had in its mouth, held crosswise and about the middle, a stick about the size and length of a lead pencil. The frog knew the snake could not swallow him so long as he presented such a front. The man watched the performance for some time and when he left the snake was still circling the frog and the latter facing its enemy on every turn.—Charlotteville Observer.

In a vacuum, silicon vaporizes at 1,800 degrees to 1,900 degrees C., and the vapor unites with Carbon to form silundum. The new material resist temperatures up to 1,750 degrees to 1,800 degrees C. It is very hard, unattacked by acids in the cold or by chlorine, and may be enameled or nickel-plated. A disadvantage is that it is destroyed by molten metals. SOME HARD KNOCKS Woman Gets Rid of "Coffee Heart." The injurious action of Coffee on the heart of many persons is well known by physicians to be caused by caffeine. This is a drug found by chemists in coffee and tea. A woman suffered a long time with severe heart trouble and finally her doctor told her she must take up coffee, as that was the principal cause of the trouble. She writes: "My heart was so weak it could not do its work properly. My husband would sometimes have to carry me from the table, and it would seem that I would never breathe again. "The doctor told me that coffee was causing the weakness of my heart. He said I must stop it, but it seemed I could not give it up until I was down in bed with nervous prostration. "For eleven weeks I lay there and suffered. Finally Husband brought home some. Postim and I quilt coffee and started new and right. Slowly I got well. Now I do not have any headaches, nor those spells with weak heart. We know it. It's Postim that helped me. The Dr. held the other day, I never thought you would be what you are. I used to weigh 92 pounds and now I weigh 158. "Postim has done much for me and I would not go back to coffee again for any money, for I believe it would kill me if I kept at it. Postim must be well bolted according to directions on pigs, them it has a rich flavour and, with cream, is fine." Read "The Road, to Wellyville," found in pigs, "There's a Reason." Ever read the above letter? A pear, one appears from time to time. They are gentle, true, and full of human interest. A Young Woman's Mistake By MRS. ISOBEL. STRONG. Some years ago a young American woman went to Yokohama as a bride; Her husband was professor of English in the Japanese University, and as he was very popular, all the members of the foreign community called upon the bride. There were the high, and mighty ambassador extraordinary from England, who came in his coach and four, with outriders and footmen in livery. There was the American consul-general, who walked over, on a pleasant evening, with his wife on his arm. There, too, were French and German officials. In full uniform, their wives and their clerks, and, in fact, all the varied society of their little world. Among the others was Captain Branscombe, a tall and thin Englishman, with a strange scar on his cheek and a queer, plinging voice and silly laugh. The little bride could hardly listen to him without laughing at his queer manner and his absurd voice. One evening, when a party of her friends was present, she wept to the door and returned, imitating the English captain, mimicking his trembling step, his high, squeaky voice and nervous laugh. It was an inimitable burlesque, but to the young woman's surprise, the girlish sally was recyled first with stony silence, then with an indignant outburst. "Stop! stop!" her friends cried, in horror, "Don't you know? Haven't you heard? Captain Branscombe is a hero!" And then they told his story. He was a captain in the British army when the English were having trouble with China. He was caught by the Chinese, who tried in every way to make him divulge military secrets. They starved him, beat him, and finally suspended him in an open cage at the gates of the city. It was hot in the blinding sun. He suffered horribly from thirst and files, hunger and his cramped position. Children stoned him, people poked him with sharp sticks, as if he were a wild beast. When the Chinese authorities threatened him further, he laughed. He was kept in that horrible cage many days until rescued by the British, ill, broken in mind and body, but loyal to his trust. The English government gave him a high official position in Japan, and a princely salary in reward for his devotion. After that terrible experience his black hair had whitened, his voice changed to a piping-treble, and, the brave laugh that had defied his tormentors became this ridiculous seeming falsetto, an almost incessant affection of the nerves. When the young American woman met him again, in his uniform and gold lace, she listened to his voice with respect; and when the captain offered her his arm for a stroll on the terrace, she bowed low and accepted it as a great honor.—The Youth's Companion. British Warships in the Delaware; : Captains, vessel owners and rivermen in general, who have placed faith in the story that a vessel was sunk in the Delaware during the Revolutionary War in the battle between the patriots and the forces of General Howe at Fort Mifflin, express regret that Secretary Nagel, of the Department of Commerce and Labor, did not choose Fort Mifflin as the site of the proposed immigrant station. The story is that the vessel sunk was one of those that joined in the assault on Fort Mifflin and that it contained specie for the payment of soldiers in the British army. Had Fort Mifflin been selected as the site riyermen say that the channel of the stream and the shore would have been dredged by the Government, so that the question as to whether, or not the war vessel was lying at the bottom of the Delaware would have been settled forever. First Use of Iron. As a result of his interesting investigations, Dr. Ridgway concludes that the smelting of iron originated in Central Europe, and especially in the region known as Noricum, equivalent to modern Austria and Bavaria. In Egypt it can be traced back to the ninth century B. C.; and in Libya to about 450 B. C. First mention of its use in China goes back to 400 B. C., while in Uganda it is said to have been in use only some five or six centuries. The above data for the first use of iron in Egypt refers to the metal obtained by smelting. The use of native iron in the form of meteorites dates back to remote antiquity. The weapons made from these were obtained, like flint implements, by chipping. And it is interesting to remember that recent investigations have shown that the iron of many meteorites is a sort of natural, steel.—London Globe. Motor Trips in Germany French roads are getting steadily worse, for motoring, while the main German ones are steadily improving. Hence the fatherland is growing in favor as a touring ground and can be recommended as affording much delightful traveling. The duty on cars is very moderate and both customs officials and police are most polite and oblileging if one takes the trouble to treat them courteously and drive with consideration in populated places. Some of the roads are the finest I have ever been on, except the latest of our tarred roads, and the land is full of beautiful scenery and delightful Old World towns and villages. One of the best approaches from France is by the Paris-Strasbourg highway.—Queen A.

Use your own musty grain if necessary, scorching it in the oven to destroy the mold plant; but the best is the cheapest when it comes to buying. Corn charred in the oven is both good and wholesome for the fowls. It is all the better for a part of it to become, blackened, and charred—Wallace's Farmer. demand and we shall receive a good price for it.—Belle Miller, Ontario. Feeding the Colt. Colts, like all other young animals cannot be fed by any hard-fast set of rules. To successfully feed colts requires good judgment, patience and close observation. Colts at weaning time require liberal feeding at frequent intervals. A horse trainer says that the average person does not know how to pet a horse. He says they do not pet them in the right place. Rub his eyelids or up between the ears. In petting horses most people slight these nerve centres. They stroke the horse's nose. While a well-behaved horse will accept the nasal cares complacently, he would much prefer that nice, soothing touch applied to the eyelids.—Epitomist. Cleanliness For Poultry. If poultrymen would worry less about ventilation and pay more attention to cleanliness, there would be less losses. Ventilation is needed, and if the houses are built on the scratching-shed order all will be supplied that is needed. But if the fifth is allowed to accumulate in a hen house, all the ventilation that a scratching-shed house can afford will not prevent the entrance of disease. —Farmers' Home Journal. Feeding Cattle. Bulletin 242, of the Michigan Experiment Station, offers some exact data upon the subject of feeding whole grain to cows, heifers and calves. When whole grain was fed to cows, twenty-two per cent. was unmasticated; when fed to heifers, ten per cent.; when fed to calves, eight per cent. Chemical analysis showed no change in composition of the unmasticated parts, so it is a safe assumption that the animal derives no benefit from grain that passes through the digestive tract unaltered. —Eplitomist. Early Chickens. Hatch all the chickens you can during January and February. They grow faster and make larger, finer chickens than those hatched later. It is surprising how much cold young chicks can stand if they are kept in a dry coop or house. The best house the writer has found to raise them in is one boarded up on all sides except the front, which faces the south and is covered with wire netting. This lets the sun shine in all day and keeps out the north and east winds. The dirt floor is kept covered with straw or leaves. When the ground is dry the hen and chicks are turned out in the yard. But if the ground is damp and cold the chickens are kept in the house ten days or two weeks. Cottonseed Meal For IIens. Dairymen all over the country are beginning to find out the great value of linseed meal and cottonseed meal as dairy feeds for the production of milk, and it has been found equally as good for laying hens. Cottonseed meal contains 36.9 per cent. protein, while corn contains only 7.1 per cent. of protein. Also, compared with the present prices of other feeds, cottonseed meal is about as cheap as wheat bran or cornmeal, making it a very economical feed, compared to its richness and power to make cows and hens produce, says Journal of Agriculture. No very rich or heavy feed should be given as an exclusive ration, hence cottonseed meal should not be fed alone, but in connection with green feeds and other light feeds. When it is given to laying hens it should be mixed with cornmeal or wheat bran and fed as a stiff mash, followed with grass range in summer and green roots and vegetables in winter. Cottonseed meal is now sold on almost all feed supply markets at from $1.25 to $1.50 per 100-pound bags, and it is one of the best feeds that can be used for a variety of farm animals. Good butter should be composed of the following points: Flavor, forty-five points; grain, twenty-five points; color, fifteen points; salt, ten points; package, five points. You will notice that flavor gets forty-five points, being nearly half the 100 points. We want our butter to have a sweet flavor; that makes us want to eat butter and bread instead of bread and butter. Perfect grain gets twenty-five points. It should have a waxy softness, yet not salvy or greasy. It must be solid in body and have no excess of casein or water. The color should be uniform and bright, not too pale, yet not too highly colored, while the salt should be evenly distributed and thoroughly dissolved. The package should be neat and clean, using a good grade of paper for wrapping. It making for special customers, endeavour to suit their tastes in every particular. This is important, for while one customer likes a full-flavored butter, another likes a mild one. One likes the butter pale; another highly colored; one likes a very little salt, another quite a quantity. It is by catering to these likes and likes that our butter will be in demand and we shall receive a good price for it—Belle Miller, Ontario. Feeding the Colt. Colts, like all other young animals, cannot be fed by any hard-fast set of rules. To successfully feed colts requires good judgment, patience and close observation. Colts at weaning time require liberal feeding at frequent intervals. Oats are the most desirable grain for them; in addition to this cracked corn may be used. A fair allowance of oats and bran (equal parts) for a colt five months old would be two to four pounds. It would pay to cut the amount of bran and add cracked corn to the ration. A ration of four parts oats, one part bran and one part corn should prove satisfactory. While the grain ration is important in feeding colts, attention should also be given to the roughage. This may consist of mixed hay, bright clover free from dust and mold, oat straw and corn stover. Sheaf oats, either cut or whole, are very desirable for colts. The roughage should be fed liberally, but the colts should not be allowed to eat all they will eat, as such will work injury on the digestive system. Although the feed and water are all important in growing colts, it must be remembered that these youngsters need abundant exercise in the open field where sunlight is pleniful. Feed as near as you can a balanced ration consisting of a variety of feeds, using oats, bran, a little corn in the winter and roots, if you have them. I prefer clover hay, if cut early and clean, with some timothy and corn fodder, and always a place where they can get exercise. If fed all they can clean up and digest well they will always be ready for the market. If not sold when three years old they should be broken to drive, and put the draft colts at light farm work and they will pay for the keeping for the next year. Then they should be fed for the market, and that means they should have about 200 pounds more flesh than they usually have in the average farmer's care. Then they will bring from $25 to $50 more per head than if sold while still thin. In fact, there is no better business for a stock feeder or farmer than to feed draft horses for the market, as a good, growthy young draft horse, if properly fed, will put on flesh at the rate of 100 pounds per month for two or three months. When they are put up for feeding' give them light rations on the start, and gradually increase the ration until they get all' they will eat and properly digest. J.P. Fletcher, in the American Cultivator. Poultry as Food. On the farm it is not always the case than the proper value is attached to poultry and poultry products which are consumed as food; but this will be found well worthy of consideration. Nearly every farmer raises, or endeavors to raise, his own beef and pork, and many market a neat surplus over the home needs. Roasts or cuts of either beef or pork are seldom missing from the thrifty farmer's table, at the noonday meal especially, with the preference usually in favor of pork. It is just as easy—and cheaper—for the farmer to have roast duck on his table as roast pork. The duck will not cost as much in proportion to the food consumed as the pork, while four pounds of the former can be put on the table eight weeks from the time the bird is hatched. For instance, say that 100 ducks are raised on a farm during the year. Practically, this means that roast duck may be had twice a week all the year round, and the hatching can be regulated so that the birds will always be tender and palatable, and there will be no necessity for smoking, packing or pickling the meat in order to retain its value as food. The same kind of food, usually, that the hog eats can be consumed by the duck, and the latter requires but little more attention than the former. When marketing time comes the farmer can dispose of the fowls that promise the most profit from the dealers, and keep the others for food at home. The duck is mentioned in this argument simply as an illustration of the food value of poultry, even if none is raised for the market. To be sure, roast duck, twice every week of the year might, in time, prove monotonous, but other poultry may be substituted and the force of the comparison still remains. The foregoing takes no account of the eggs produced on the farm, which are conceded to be well-nigh indispensable. They are used in the preparation of many dishes, and occupy positions of such prominence in nearly every meal that the farmer's wife would indeed be handicapped without their aid. But on many farms the fowls are classed as interlopers, their scanty rations being, grudgingly furnished, while the herd of swine dines to repletion on the best the farm affords, that great weight may be attained before slaughtering time. In estimating the profit from the home flock of fowls the farmer seldom gives the poultry and eggs consumed by the family a value equal to that which would be reckoned if such things had to be purchased.—Farmers' Union Guide.

One of the most despicable things in Masonry is the dispensation to make new members especially in lodges where such is not a necessity. In every case where such dispensations are granted you can find men who should not have received the light of Masonry. Our Grand Master should only grant these dispensations in order to help Lodges that are really in need of such help. Too often we look at the commercial side of Masonry and not at the principle. The latter is what we should keep constantly before us and let our actions be thus circumscribed. Some weeks ago we reminded the brethren of the approach of Thanksgiving day and that they should remember the fortunate ones at the Orphan Home. It is hoped that this appeal will not go by unnoticed, but that the poor orphans will be made happy by the kind remembrances of those of us whom the Great Architect have blessed with health, with strength and other blessings of life. Next month is the election month. Prepare now to only put good men on guard. As a general thing the Lodge is only that the officers make it; therefore it is very necessary for us in each Lodge to select the right kind of officers. As Masons we do not blow our horns, but we are compelled to shake each others' hands over the glorious success of our relief department. Read the figures and see that we have cause to rejoice. Our brethren can not only rejoice over the success of the relief department, but they can also rejoice over the fact that they have as officers a Grand Master, etc., who is leading the craft in a manner that spells the success which we are attaining. The successful Master is not always the one who gives the best entertainments or raises the most candidates. It might be well for some members to give more consideration to their duty to the lodge and less to the lodge's duty to them. — Masonic Chronicle. King Edward VII., of England, is said to have received his Masonic degrees in Sweden, King Oscar, of that country, officiating as Worshipful Master. This occurred in 1868, while Edward VII., as Prince of Wales, was on a visit to Sweden. The affairs of a Masonic organization should be conserved as carefully by those charged with its government as would be the details of a private business. Some incumbents, however, are not nearly so careful as they would be in the management of their own personal business. — Canadian Craftsman. We need more fellowship in our Masonic lorges. We need more of that spirit which prompts a man upon entering a lodge room to seek out each brother, grasp his hand in fraternal greeting and inquire after his welfare. The selfishness of the age has become proverbial, but a Masonic lodge ought to be an exception. The true Mason is his brother's keeper, not in the sense of meddling with his personal affairs, but in that broader sense of being linked together in a chain of indisoluble affection—Masonic Standard. We all do wrong; we all make mistakes; we all voluntarily commit error. Let us, as we have vowed we will, cover the fobles of an erring brother, spread the broad mantle of charity. When we present our work for inspection to the Supreme Grand Master, we will not display hoarded wealth; we will not exhibit that which has been secured by skill, shrewdness or cunning. We will rather search our lives that we may marshal little acts of kindness; we will direct attention to the manifestations of true brotherly love. Let us, then, so live that when the summons comes we can all present an abundance of creditable work for inspection.—Thos. Bond, Grand Master, Kansas. Grand Master S. J. Quinn, of Virginia, has this to say in the Virginia Masonic Journal about Maconic publications: "Every Mason should be an active and intelligent Mason, and in order to be intelligent he must be a reading Mason and he can find the most helpful literature in the Masonic publications of the day." In the heat of argument we are sometimes liable to forget this item of the Old Charges, which, as good Masons and true brethren, we are bound to observe: "The craftsmen are to avoid all ill language, and to call each other by no disobliging name, but brother or fellow; and to behave themselves courteously within and without the Lodge."—Masonic Standard. Talk of the higher degrees of Masonry until your mind becomes confused in the mazes of the great number, legitimate or otherwise, but there is not one duty you owe to yourself, to your family, to mankind in general, cr to God, which is not brought to your attention in the lessons of the sublimest of all degrees, in all the Orders of the world, that of entered apprentice in legitimate Freemasonry. —Missouri Freemason. WHY? Why is it that when lodges have among their membership some obnoxious character whose conduct Is a. reproach to Masonry that they will get him to take a demit-or resort to subterfuge to get him suspended for non-payment of dues? This spirit of moral cowardice is reprehensible and yet lodges wishing to get rid of a dissolute member will give him a demit, thus providing him with the necessary passports to go out and impose upon some innocent lodge. Instead of having the moral courage to prefer charges against him they will evade the law and suddenly announce to him that he has been suspended fornion payment of dues. No one seems to think of taking the honest, straightforward course and preferring charges, thus ridding the institution of a menace, but, on the contrary, deception and fraud are practiced just because some one lacks the moral courage to do the right thing. Such men are certainly poor examples to walk on the footsteps of the illustrious Hiram, the architect, who had manly courage enough to stand for the right even though it cost him his life.—Illinois Freemasonry. MUST BE CULTIVATED. MUST BE CULTIVATED. Whatever conduces to the improvement of man, either spiritually or physically, and the great need of the race today is the proper development of all the faculties. We cannot all receive the same training, because we cannot all be in the same school of advantage and circumstances, but we can all use our best endeavors to improve the opportunities afforded for our advancement. We can do more. Those who are favored above others may exercise an influence for good over those about them, and by example and precept, by a helpful word and an encouraging look, stimulate to action. One of the greatest needs of humanity is a tolerant spirit, that leads those who occupy a better position in society, who are regarded by their fellow-men as superior in intellect, education or refinement, to be ready to consider that the earth upon which they walk is precisely the same, and the air they breathe comes from the same source as that of their more illiterate fellows. That the difference between them is much a matter of surrounding—Masonic Sun. FREEDOM OF THOUGHT. THAT racial success, sifted down to its final analysis, spells racial harmony, is beyond cavil, the unadulterated truth. Not that every individual of the race should agree to the same proposition or plan. This would spell redundancy and racial retrogression, and, ultimately, industrial decadence. But wisdom should direct all thought to that common point that is discoverable by a keen discretion, which point is a general vantage point to all. Men will differ. There is no escape from it so long as thoughtfulness obtains. But difference should be utilized to an advantage and they can be, if every individual would concede that his neighbor is an heir to independence of thought as well as he. No one man can corner the market of thought, nor "bull" that of common reason. Races are made up of individuals, nations of races and the world is made up of them all. The "sum of the parts is equal to the whole," and this great world itself is no stronger than is its weakest individual. Hence, it is necessary to protect the weak. This is the plane upon which the great battles of life are fought. Cesseless strife is continuously being waged against wrong. This is done not to weaken the wrong doers, but to strengthen them and thus strengthen the whole body unit, versal. But, in fighting wrong, do you not manifestly concede to wrong the right to fight? Then, how much more readily should the simple right to differe, one with the other, be peacefully tolerated? The sooner we, as a race, and as individuals learn to "split the differences" among us and raise peace, the sooner we will begin to tread the paths of real and substantial progress. "Have vision and work them out to advantage," the preacher says. Needless these dreams or visions if each individual should dream the same dreams. It is "variety that is the spice of life," and life would be lacking of this wholesome flavoring thought moved men in one common and monotonous channel. Burdensoe, indeed, would be a single glance at the fields, forests, meadows and mountains if they were not flecked by different species of plant life. The streams, untouched by the sunlight which makes their sparkling waters do the chores of the mirror and the prism would lose much of their poetic beauty. With no aquatic inhabitant to break the smooth surface thereof and no opposing wind to wake their tranquil bosoms to a harmless, and sometimes, threatening boisterousness, melancholy, indeed, would be their appearance to the ken of humanity. But, luckily for man, the creature rational, all of these monotony-breaking variations were in the Holy Conception, and that it is ours to note the splendor and perfection of the Great Palm. And being thus endowed, we should concede both by precept and example to the incompatible wisdom thereof. "All kinds of weather taken together make up a manner and a sphere," and all manner of thought make up the lore out of which evolves the laws which govern the universe. Mythogyos' fiver was represented as having wings on his feet; but Wilbur Wright, a latter day Apostle, thinks, and has wrought differently. The ancient aim was at swiftness and flight, the modern aim was at swiftness and flight. Both of these aims were common alms, and, possibly, some phase of the former is combined with the latter. We cannot bridle thought. We cannot gag thought. We cannot coerce thought. Its habitat is a boundless realm, unassailed and unassailable. When it is put into expression, it may be combatted. It should be combatted, elfted and squeezed, distilled and purged not to bring injury to the thinker, but for the extraction of what is good from the thought. The Negro, in his darkest days, thought. As the result of his thinking, much vantage was gained for himself and for his owners and for the great universe. If he wanted to sing condemnation or criticism of the conduct of his master, he did it with impunity. He did it shrewdly and diplomatically and respectfully, but thoroughly. What greater condemnation could be preside down upon the brow of arrogance than the following: "Er 'ldgeon wus or thing dat money cud buy, De rich would live an' de po' would die." Thought! · Thou winged, wingless element, product of a power divine, servant and sovereign, may thy limitless freedom and matchless power, force upon humility the fact that, couched into words thy presence may be questioned, but in that habitat specially designed as thy residence "popular commotion and partisan fury may dash their mad waves against thee," but, like the mighty stream that flows its way on to the sea, thy trend will be unimpeded.

In old Holland, when a couple applied for divorce, they were locked up in a one-room, trying-out cabin, with one dish and one spoon. If, after a month, they had not come to limerick they got the writ, which was seldom asked for after this bundling. A New York woman shopper who is fond of figures has estimated that the time lost by customers each day in one of the large department stores in waiting for their change is equal to the average time of labor for one person for seventy days. The name "blue laws" was given to the first collection of laws framed for the government of the New Haven Colony.

Absent-Minded. When lapses of memory become habitual the person is properly called absent-minded. The Chicago Tribune relates the following absurdities into which some victims of this disease have fallen: A bridegroom of twenty-four hours left his wife, strolled around to his new mother-in-law's house, and asked her if her daughter was at home. This came from force of habit; he had been calling there daily for some time, and it probably occurred to him that he had not paid his usual visit. A Chicago bank president is unable to account for three-quarters of an hour of his life. He wont into a restaurant, as usual, and ordered his lunch. Nearly an hour later he found himself in his office chair, and suddenly remembered the order. He went back across the street and naked if the luncheon was ready. The clerk informed him that he had eaten, paid the bill, and that he (the clerk) had not noticed anything peculiar in his actions. The bank president congratulates himself that he can be trusted to behave like an ordinary mortal even when he doesn't happen to have his mind with him. An editor on a daily paper has laid himself open to unkind remarks by trying to take up a collection in his office. Happening to want a small coin he turned to a fellow-worker and asked for a quarter. "Haven't got it, but here's a dollar," the man replied, as he tossed it over. The editor put the dollar in his pocket and immediately turned to a special writer at the next desk and said: "Miss ——, could you lend me a quarter?" Then, seeing the man from whom he had got the dollar grin, he added hastily, "Oh, never mind; I just got a dollar from Brown." In, analyzing his conduct he said that Brown's reply that he did not have a quarter was apparently the only part of the transaction that made any impression upon him. But he is under suspicion in that office, and will probably never be able to live it down. LEADING STORIES Invented and Manufactured by a Colored Man.
