"I think it very —unattractive," he replied, with cold disapproval. "I cheer me," the bachelor "you admired Mrs. Vanderbilt and those club women for doing it." "Pardon me," corrected the bachelor, "I admitted the fraternity way in which they did it.

"We always wanted to do something shocking, 'thing!'" return at the widow cheerfully, and now that I've found out what to do—you aren't going to scare me into being good, by sausage, and she drew another puff, which ended in the coughing spell. The bachelor started. "By saying—what?" "I suppose you think it's very dreadful." "I suppose you think it's very dreadful." "That it's unbecoming," explained the widow, "or that it will make my wife my reputation. That's a little worry you men have of frightening us off your preserves and retaining all the nice, feminine things you wear. Her reputation is the white woman's burden?

Mrs. Thomas, Pioneer "Aeronautess," Praises Balloons Mrs. Thomas, Pioneer "Aeronautess," Praises Balloons ```markdown ``` MRS. JULIAN 2. THOMAS JURS A HOLLAND HERDON All women go up in the air at one time or another, and few need the aid of balloons to do it. However, a daily increasing number are taking to the airship as a pastime, so much so. indeed, that aeronautics has become the fad of every woman with daring and money enough to compass the possession of an airship. Mrs. Julian P. Thomas is the pioneer of women aeronauts in America, as she has made four trips in her husband's airship, the first more than three years ago. Last week Mrs. Thomas' ten-year-old son Odin made his first ascension with his father at North Adams, Mass, taking a record trip of his family, from North Adams to Portland, Me. A short time before Miss Nathalie Forbes, the twelve-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. Holland Forbes of Fairfield, Conn., went up in a balloon with her father and mother. Mrs. Forbes is an enthusiastic balloonist, and a dirigible is now being made especially for her use. Mrs. W. H. Martin of Canton, Ohio, is said to be the only woman in this country to soar in an airplane, though in Paris another Ohio woman, Miss Wright, sister of Orville and Wilburt Wright, has performed a similar feat. In London Miss Muriel Mathes shows suffrage literature on reluctant London from the far heights of a balloon dedicated to the cause of votes for women. Only One From New York. "So far as I know," said Mrs. Julian P. Thomas, when I asked her to tell me something of the progress of ballooning in York. "I am still the only woman in the city who makes balloon ascensions. I have been up in an airplane, however, and don't think I would care to do so. I regard it as entirely too dangerous. "Many people have the idea that you cannot travel a specified route in a balloon. Last year, when we said that we would make a trip from Philadelphia to New York, we were laughed at, yet we did it without any trouble, leaving Philadelphia at 11 o'clock a.m. and landing in the Bronx about 5." everything depends on your knowledge of the currents). Dr. Thomas interrupted. "You throw off ballast, you'll found you that that's blowing in the direction you want to take, and when you want to alter, you go higher or lower, according to the current you seek." "I made my first ascent because I didn't want Dr. Thomas to get ahead of me in anything," said the wife. "I wanted to show him that I could go anywhere that he could. I wasn't in the least afraid, though Dr. Thomas made me make my will before the ascent, which took place at Pittsfield, Mass.

"It was this which made it different from a fog as well as the color of the cloud, which was pearly white. Condensed moisture, in tiny drops, was on the faces of the passengers. "While this cloud I thought from the rushing sound beneath us that we were over water, but when we emerged suddenly from the cloud the sun was shining brightly on the peak of a high mountain, which the balloon barely grazed. We landed in Connecticut in a large forest. We had no more ballast, and the balloon bumped helter-skeller over the tree tops. Every time we bumped we would rise several feet in the air. A Gallop Over the Trees. "It was like a very gallop over the trees. Luckily for us, the anchorage caught in one of the branches.

What I care for most is the wonderful beauty of the scenery and for taking snap shots of it as we go along. "The only time I felt really brave was last week, when I let my ten-year-old son go up at North Adams. Of course, I have the greatest confidence in Dr. Thomas, but I'll admit I was a little worried about Odin. But, as things happened, the little fellow was a passenger on a record trip, as they made 175 miles." "Have you ever been in a mutiny on an airship?" I asked. Mutiny on an Airship. "No, but Dr. Thomas has," replied his wife. Dr. Thomas was loath to tell of this adventure. I don't want to criticise the fellows who were with me," he said. "I won't tell you where the ascension was made, but it was very recent. I had some green people with me, and I was foolish enough to explain my majeurry, but we had gone more than 150 miles to know exactly where we were, so started to send the balloon down until we were within hailing distance of a man of whom I could make the inquiry. The man in this case turned out to be a woman, but before we got to her the people on board saw how fast we were going down, and got frightened. We were actually traveling faster than the fastest express train, and when they thought I wasn't looking they began to quit, and one fellow, they'd throw me overboard if I was careful. But by that time we were safely down, and the trouble was over Another illusion dispelled. Mistletoe, it seems, is not a Christmas decoration.

It may help to restore the practice of the hanging of the mistletoe a separate New Year's ceremony to state that its efficacy is entirely lost if it is hung and used for the encouragement of osculation before the first day of the year. The Donaldson Yarn. "The is a story that a man was thrown overboard deliberately some years ago in Chicago. He was a reporter on one of the Chicago papers, who was asked an aeronaut named Donaldson. When over Lake Michigan they got out of ballast and were sinking into the lake. It is said Donaldson threw the reporter overboard to save his own life. "The empty balloon was found later on land, but Donaldson had disappeared. There are people, however, who say they have seen him working in the mines out West." "Would you care to make an assesse, asked Mrs. Thomas hospitably, turning in," Mindful of the sad fate of the Chicago newspaper man, I said I was afraid my family wouldn't let me. CASES FOR THE X-RAY. When Failure to Use It May Make a Doctor Liable for Damages. The question of the duty of a physician or a surgeon in regard to an X-ray examination of a supposed fracture or dislocation is discussed in the Medical Review of Reviews by a prominent New York expert in such matters; radiologist is his professional designation. He quotes a foreign authority on the difficulty of making a correct diagnosis of injuries, especially when in the neighborhood of a joint. MRS. A HOLLAND FORBES and MRS. NATHALIE FORDER OF NEW YORK. "Not infrequently an injury diagnosed as a fracture and the part placed in plaster splint. Later a radiograph demonstrates the absence of fracture, but the presence of a dislocation which was not suspected and which had been made permanent by failure of reduction, immobilization, etc. "There are, in fact many cases where it is impossible to make an early diagnosis on account of the pain and swelling, and very often the injury, even after the swelling has subsided, is of such nature as to mirele the best surgeons. In these cases it is very easy to establish a correct diagnosis by means of the X-ray. "The physician need not, of course, make the X-ray examination himself, but to be on the safe side he should advise the patient or the patient's family to consult a radiographer, for while a haematoma, swelling and pain were formerly accepted by the courts as an excuse for the non-recognition of fracture, etc., such is not the case now. Physicians who neglect to advise the employment of the X-ray in these cases expose themselves to an action for damages, in which they will b excused of neglect of exercise the 'reasonable care and skill' which is required by law. Maine Hunting Story. Dan Chaplin of Corishan went fox hunting one day last week in the vicinity of Trafton Mountain. His hound got on a trail and chased a red fox for some time, and when within range Dan saw the fox had a gray squirrel in his mouth. He shot the fox, which released the squirrel. It then ran up a small bush. The hound after making sure the fox was dead made a leap for the squirrel which was probably stunned, and captured it. The case is unparalleled in these parts.

UNDER THE HONEYMOON NIXOLA GREELEY SMITH CHILDREN AND CANDY --- "JACK," said the bride, "I want to ask you a question." It was during a lucid interval of the honeymoon's first week, and the bride and bridegroom threw in a porch of a big house by the sea which had been lent to them for this dulce occasion by the bride's uncle.

This was base treason, and she had sulked for three whole minutes. "Well, what is it?" asked the bride- groom. But his eyes did not lift from their rapt scrutiny of the "Standing of the Thief." "Would you," purred the bride, "would you love me—" "What are you blushing about?" interpolated the bridegroom. "Would you love me," she pursued, ignoring the interruption, "if I were crazy." The bridegroom laughed and forget momentarily the baseball score. "You ARE crazy," he said. The bridegroom laughed and the bride admitted. Then, for fear he might take the admission too seriously and presume upon it, she added, hastily, "that's a joke. "Oh, it's a joke, is it?" The bridegroom crossed the three steps that separated him from the bride's chair, grabbed her up and held her hands held in the air, the French heels held her bronze slippers dangling helplessly.

Securely back in her chair she began to burlesque the confession. "I love you fondly, madly, with a Florentine frenzy—I heard that once in a play." Then, as the bridegroom began to search among the mass of newspapers for the sporting page, she hurried. "But I was serious in that question I wrote," French book tells the story of a man much in love with his wife, but she poses to—well, it's all about whether he ought to—"the stopped short and blushed again more thoroughly." "Whether he ought to be true to her or not, he finished breathlessly," would you? A LL children love candy. It is the sweet tooth of childhood that craves satisfaction in any sugary concoction.

What are the mothers thinking of, I wonder; or perhaps they do not know that their young are filling themselves with unwholesome ice cream sandwiches early in the morning or have provided themselves with a daily-sucker (cost 1 cent), which lasts throughout most of the afternoon, and is indeed a sweet solace until super time, for which meal all appetite has fled. The result is decaying teeth, chronic indulgence and the other ills of more or less seriousness. The bridegroom threw down his paper again. He had learned in three questions from the bride must be taught the seriousness; that for the moment, at least, she thought her eternal happiness upon his marriage was the easiest, he could resist the temptation of—I regret to say the bridegroom might have called it "getting her goat."

I want you to love me just because I ME." "All right, the bridegroom was deep in his paper again. The bride glared at the paper, then at the bridegroom at the paper, then at the bridegroom at the paper, then at the bridegroom and, seizing the sporting page in her dimpled hands, torso, viciously into shreds, there!" she said virginantly. The bridegroom's eyes flashed. "You must have felt it coming on—the bridegroom he said coldly. Tears swelled. In the bride's wide, brown eyes. That still old paper in my hands, me," she said so emphatically. Then, perilously near to sobbing, she continued: "I don't want you to read, I want, to go down to the beach. I want, well, come on down to the beach, said the bridegroom, grabbing her the hill and out the gate to where, past the road and through fields, the ocean with its Sunday mood upon it They did not know whether they sat on a beach in hand or held or moments. Hand in hand they watched ocean—such a little ocean; so much shallower than their love; so much narrower than their understanding of other.

SATURDAY, MARCH 13, 1909. WHITE MEN'S GOVERNMENTS HAVE FAILED. Referring to Liberia, the Baltimore Sun says: "The experiment in self-government has proved a melancholy failure for the Negro. Even with the good will of the United States the republic has not been able to maintain itself in a state of efficiency. It has been nursed tenderly by Uclee Sam in the hope that the citizens of the Liberian Republic would be able to demonstrate their ability to govern themselves and protect their own interests. But it does not seem that the black man is capable of maintaining stable government, according to the standards of civilization, if left alone. Many of the citizens of the Liberian Republic are the descendants of American Negroes who had been in touch with our institutions and were considered prepared to some extent for self-government." Yes, it is true that the government which the old slaveholders established as a safety-valve for slavery, in order to prevent the slaves from being made restless by association with the freemen freemen of their race, is in des- ```markdown ``` W.

But it has not yet failed, and the black men of Haiti have maintained a government for more than one hundred years. No Negro government has failed. The white man has failed in many cases. What have become of Nineveh, Babylon, Egypt, Assyria, Greece and Rome? Did they not all fail? What has become of the Southern Confederacy? EMMETT J. SCOTT Booker T. Washington, having declined a place on the Librarian Commission, Mr. Emmett J. Scott, his private secretary, has been offered the position by President Taft and Mr. Scott is considering the offer. It is a great honor and has been conferred on a worthy young man. For about ten years Mr. Scott has been the confidential secretary of the great educator and he has demonstrated remarkable ability in handling the varied interests of Mr. Washington. As it is necessary for Dr. Washington to spend the greater portion of his time traveling and soliciting money to support Tuskegee Mr. Scott is virtually the head of the great institution during two-thirds of the year and he has managed affairs with signal ability. Now well and favorably known in this country, as Commissioner to Liberia, Mr. Scott will win for himself an international reputation. THE APPEAL bids Mr. Scott Godspeed. FAKE ASSAULT REPORTS. Recently it was announced in the newspapers that Pittsburgh, Pa., was much excited over outrages upon white women, committed by Afro-Americans. Nearly every newspaper copied the statement and many of them commented very severely upon this new development of the depravity of the dark-skinned race. The hoodlum officers of the iron City got busy and arrested Afro-American they could lay hands upon. The whole thing was a diabolical fake, according to the following from the Philadelphia Tribune: In this case it was alleged that a "colored man had assaulted a white woman. Wholesale arrests were made and all parties were dismissed as being innocent. The charge has not been sustained and up to this hour there is no certainty that a colored man or even a white man disguised as a colored man committed such a cruel act." The Tribune is an Afro-American paper, and THE APPEAL has not seen a contradiction of the false report in a single Caucasian newspaper. Any of the newspapers will publish the most outrageous libels against the race, but very few of them will print the refutation of such lies. "MOB DEGENERACY." THE APPEAL has frequently denounced "Mob Degeneracy" in its strongest terms, and has endeavored to show that the mob spirit which prevails, is really more damaging to those possessing it than their victims, that it is with much satisfaction we notice what the St. Paul Pioneer Press had to say in regard to the recent awful act in Rockwall, Tex., under the above caption, viz: "The conduct of the Rockwall (Tex.) mob that burned a Negro at the stake is of the sort to make pessimists of those who would like to think well of their countrymen. There is no excuse for such demonstrations of fiendishness. The colored man who had attempted an assault upon his employer's wife undoubtedly is well out of the way, but his brutality did not justify a spectacle such as was witnessed in the little town on Sunday. He may have been insane. Undoubtedly he was an ignorant unfortunate who was a menace to society and should have been severely punished, if not by death, at least by imprisonment for a long term of years. "But bad and vicious as he was he was not worse than his executioners. How can the people of any community claim to be sane and sensible when stake in the public square, pile cordwood about him, saturate it with oil, apply the torch and then stand by and watch while he is roasted alive? It is possible to understand how a mob in the frenzy of excitement might stone a man, shoot him or inflict death on him. It is possible that the deliberation of the Texas affair was not of that sort of excitement. It was the cruel brutality of a pack of unthinking, unfeeling degenerates who are a disgrace to their race."

"She will endure poverty and neglect and indifference," went on the widow, ignoring the interruption, "and still be thankful for anything that is flung at home or to a compliment." "So will a man!" announced the bachelor, sadly. "Not at all!" retorted the widow, promptly. "A man will run from anything. It is head, whether it's a plate, or flattery, or just a—a girl.

Once more the devil will be in our midst for on next Sunday matinee, at the Grand, “Morrison's magnificent pro duction of “Faust” with mephisto as the center of attraction will be pre- sented in this city. The present re vival of “Faust” is the result of the craze for the devil as a stage person- age. In London, in Paris, in Berlin, in fact in every capital ‘in Europe, Goethe's sublime play, “Faust” or the latest ctaze by Molnar, the Hungarian novelist, entitled “The Devil,” haz cap: tured theater goers by storm, Beer- bohm Tree in London, Sarah Bern- hardt in Paris are producing “Faust.” No other production of “Faust” has ever equalled the Morrison version in this country and Rosabel Morrison, in presenting it once more upon a most elaborate scale, has made no mis- take. Highly effective and in every stay appropriate, is the stagng of the weird drama. Numerous mystic effects produced under the supervision of the famous magician, “Herrman the Great” have been introduced. The startling optical illusions and realistic effects have not been dragged in for the sake of causing sensations; all are artis tically employed to illustrate the text of the great German poet’s master piece.

Breaking Waves Dash High in Lon- don Hippodrome, The latest feature at the London Hippodrome is a spectacle entitled “The Sands of Dee,” which cul- minates in the rescue of the heroine, gagged and bound to a stake planted on the beach, just as the rising tide sends in great breakers which near- ly overwhelm the girl. ‘Nine huge rollers sweep across the state in & most realistic manner, and the hero, on the back of a swimming horse, barely reaches the unfortunate heroine as the water laps about her ‘shoulders. The" apparatus necessary for the production of waves is very simple. Seventy-nine feet above the stage, in the fiies, are three great tanks, each capable of holding five tons of water and fitted with an arrangement whereby the water may be discharged in a solid mass as though the bottom hid fallen out, A wave-producing board is built up in the stage immediately beneath the tanks, says Harper’s Weekly, extends across the full width of the prosce- nium opening, and is concave in form, with the back ten feet high and the front edge only about twelve inches above the trough. The falling water swirls as it strikes the hollow of this board and is projected in a solid sheet about thir- ty feet into, the air before it breaks in the arena. A back cloth and water- proof paint aid materially in creating the illuston, Nine waves dash into the arena at intervals of six seconds and the roar of the breakers is very similar to the surf. “A high pressure main fills the tanks in three seconds after they are ‘emptied. A Thirteenth Century Drink. Thirteenth century tastes in food had few imitations. Besides the “fowl of Africa and the rare gadwit of Ionla” mentioned by Fitzstephen, gourmets in the time of King John used to regale- themselves on herons, cranes, crows, storks, cormorants and bitterns, Some would wash their meals down with wine, but the major- ity drank mead or mietheglin. Mead, according to Holinshed, was only the washing of the combs after the honey had been taken from them, and so poor a beverage that it had to be spiced, peppered or made palatable with sweetbriar or thyme.

There is nothing the farmers dislike so much as this habit, for they never know whether such persons are rough riders or gentlemen or people from the towns or who they are galloping over their land and over their fences. There is but one proper and legitimate fox hunting dress for gentlemen, and that is red or black coat, white breeches, top boots and a high hat, and certainly thirty years ago nobody would have dared to come out dressed otherwise. Where the hounds belong to the country all land owners are entitled to wear the hunt button, but I do not think that this entitles the subscribers to wear it unless they are invited to do so by the master or by the committee, as the case may be. Memory and Inheritance Dr. Francis Darkin, in his presidential address to the British association, adopted the view of Hering that memory and inheritance are essentially similar. "There is the wonderful fact," said Dr. Darwin, "that as the ovum develops into the perfect organism it passes through a series of changes which are believed to represent the successive forms through which its ancestors passed in the process of evolution. This is precisely paralleled by our own experience of memory, for it often happens that we cannot reproduce the last learned verse of a poem without repeating the earlier part; each verse is suggested by the previous one, and acts as a stimulus for the next." Hering's ideas approved by Dr. Darwin, is that the abyss between two generations is bridged by the unconscious memory that resides in the germ cells. An Anti-Ant Building Reinforced concrete is the material which will be used almost exclusively in the construction of the new government buildings to be erected by the United States at San Juan, Porto Rico, for use as a postoffice, court house and custom house. Wood is to be practically excluded from the structure; the only place about the building where wood will be employed will be in the window sashes and on one side of the edifice. The interior doors will be of rattan. The reason why wood is being avoided by the government in this case is because there is a small ant indigenous to the island of Porto Rico which eats its way up through wooden chairs, doors and desks and makes them spongy on the inside.—Cement Age. Ancient Smithfield Market Smithfield, whose bovine activities are to be the subject of a government inquiry, is probably the oldest cattle market in the world. It was already ancient when Fitz-Stephen made allusion to its existence in 1150. Then a place for live cattle only, it lay outside the city walls, and served in the absence of the cattle as a place of recreation. Two hundred years later the corporation assumed official control over the beasts and the butchers. But these did not have the complete monopoly of Smithfield, as the blood of the martyrs and the revelers of Bartholomew fair testify—London Chronicle. The largest snowdrift ever reported on a Declare county road is that on the Macedonia pike front of the form of Sherman Whitney, and as a result of it there has been no rural mail delivery along that route since last Friday until today. The drift ranged in depth between ten and twelve feet, and was estimated to be between three and four city blocks in length. The road has been impassable for several days, but a large force of men managed to clear away the snow yesterday and allow traffic to proceed. Aged Woman's Walking Record. Miss Olivia Blamey Williams of St Mabyn (Cornwall walked 2,358 miles last year, or an average of forty-six miles a week, and her record for the present year has already beaten that. Last week she walked over fifty miles, visiting her customers in other parishes, where she helps with plain sewing. She is over seventy years of age—London Standard. Posthumous Names in China Another imperial decree has been issued on the subject of posthumous names to their late majesties, the empress dowager and the emperor, Posthumous names of emperors in Chinese history never exceed twenty-two characters, and of the empresses sixteen characters.
