Girls, Rights.

That which women require, first of all,
and that which this whole women's move
ment really tends to, is education. 1t is
simply shocking to consider the way we
bring up our girls. They are usually taught
to know nothing The theory of our system
is that in order to keep them pure we must
keep them ig ,orant. The result is that we
confine the process of purifcation to those
that naturally take to it, and multiply the
errors, the sorrow and sneering hundred
fold. Girls should be educated precisely as
boys are educated. They should be taught
everything that boys are taught. If they
want to go astray let them, at least, go with
their eyes open for as it is, they are first
blindfOlded and then led to q pit dug and for
every one that leaps dozen tumble in.
Titled English Houses of Modern Date.
Most of the titled houses of England are
of comparatively modern date. The real
old families of the country are the squires
and small landed gentry and yeomen. Their
descent and possessions have in scores upon
scores of eases been unbroken for 500 or even
800 years, whereas the unlimited power of "a
prime minister or sovereign to create q new
peer has introduced into theupper house men
but few removes from the trade or profess
sions. OF the entire 118 families whose
heads have seats as peers of England only II
existed as mobiles in 1907, when the union Of
England and Scotland took place, 341 having
been raised to the peerag,e exclusive of the
last batch, since that date. The Irish peers
are of still lower caste q miserable crew of
mostly dating from the corrup-
ton of the Union

Tasting Pure Champagne.

I There is very little champagne that goes
abroad from France that is not fixed or doc
tored or sophisticated in some way to suit
foreign tastes, and have heard Englishmen
and Americans complain that they could not
get as good wine in France as they had been
accustomed to drink at home. This opinion,
I believe, was the result Of getting purer
wine than they usually drank. 1t does not
do, however, to be too great stickler for an
entirely pure wine in all cases, as / learned
by little practical joke played upon me at
M. Meets table. In my vanity had been
speaking of pure and impure wines, sub
.ject | know very little about, and wound up
my diatribe against all makers of wines by
saying that they all doctored their wires to
i greater or less extent. This was not de-
MED, and was asked what | desired L
said would like, for once in my life, to taste
a perfectly pure wine, without any addition
or supposed improvem ent-nothing but the
pure juice of the grape. They politely said
if [ were to fix upon any of the brands they
were then making they would give me next
day at lunch glass of perfectly pure wine,
without any admixture. | selected the inn
perial wine which they were then making
for the Russian court and it was promised,
although it was said I would not like it.
Next day at luncheon the butler picked up
from the ice pail a bottle of the imperial
wine in all its gorgeous trappings of gold-foil
and scarlet paper, and filled our glasses, our
host remarking that this was gotten up ex-
pressly for me. Being very thirsty, after
bowling to my host, | tossed down nearly the
whole contents OF my glass, expecting to en-
JOY a most delicious treat, when, to my hor-
ror, my mouth puckered up and felt all the
sensations of having chewed up an unripe
persimmon. I ran to the window, threw the
remaining contents Of the glass into the
garden, turned round, and found all my
friends with their glasses untouched and
laughing heartily at me. It was then ex-
planned that it was all pure wine L was
given, but that all champagne is undrinkable
until it has received certain portion of
candy syrup, the wines that 60 to its manu-
facture being all of the most acid This
little episode has made me ever since modest
in my demands for strictly pure vintage. 7

Valleys are troughs for disease, says DR.
Haviland in paper read before the London
Medical Association. They are hot beds for
rheumitism, which is often FOLLOWED by
heart disease. The reason for this may be
clearly seen. The fresh air, so important to
vigorous life, finds no easy entrance to these
pent up localities. The winds blow over
them instead of through them, and emana-
itons of all kinds cling to the soil instead of
being dispersed in the regions of upper air.

What to CaI-Her.

When woman addresses her partner with
gushes OF affection, as Hubby" Or My
dearest hubby" he may possibly like it if he
can bear it, but most men would like to hear
almost anything else. One fears that differ
ent terms Of address may follow, which rep
resent another mood. On the other hand,
when man addresses his spouse as "Wifee,
it is almost impossible to avoid thinking of
doggy" and there is an unpleasant feeling
of sickness at hearing the word. But when
one hears husband address his wife as
"Queenie," which is said to be the word used
by one of the most distinguished authors of
New Engla in addressing his better half,
it seems as if the wife had her proper place
in his affections. The word is expressive;
it grants the superiority of woman; it en-
thrones her in his home Quite in contrast
is the reserved tone in many households. 1t
is always "Mr. Smith" and Mrs. Smith" and
one fears constantly that he may disturb the
dignity of that house. Such severe pro-
priety, however, can hardly endure the inno-
vations of children. It is mama" and papa"
which soften ones feelings, and then they
grow into the more respectable terms of
father and mother until the wife calls
the husband father" and the husband calls
his wife mother" Where there are no chill
dren and it is always "Mr" and "Mrs," there
is a skeleton in the household, and love has
escaped through the window, like Noah's
dove, in search of new life. Then there
are the severely homely terms which one
finds in use by Charley's father toward his
wife, the woman saying my man." or simply
man." the husband addressing the partner
of his tolls simply as wife" or woman"
and yet, when there is smile on the happy
faces the words are wonderfully fraught with
meaning After all, there is nothing like
simplicity and honesty between husband
and wife

To Young Men.

! Idleness is the great destroyer of young
men. 1t is sure to work out the ruin of the
most talented. Give young man plenty to
do and he is safe. Allow him to spend his
hours in idleness-to loaf around bar-rooms
stand on the street corners or stay about
home with no higher ambition than just to
eat, drink, sleep and smoke, and you lay for
him the broad foundation of future disgrace
Parents you may depend upon it, that your
grown up boys find little that adds to their
manhood in the walks OF idieness. Better
to give them some honorable trade than to
trust to chance for some wind fall of luck or
fortune to benefit them in after-life
If young men are out of employment let
this great truth be impressed upon their
minds, that time even though it brings no
money, is valuable. Selfimprovements should
be kept up so that every spare hotr may
bring to its possessors some valuable aequi-
sition. Enrich your mind by the careful
study of some good work, for you may rest
assured your labor is none the less for being
intelligent. Better be found studying at
home, thereby improving and discipling your
mind, than to be seen on street corners
with hands in pockets, cigar between your
lips--the very picture of laziness
Nothing can be accomplished without
labor. Excellence in every trade or pro-
fession depends upon it. 1t is not the idlers
that make their mark in the world, but the
earnest go-ahead men who never stop for
little troubles or give up for great ones, but
who 60 forward, determined to be and do
something in this world. Young man turn
over a new leaf-place before you the object
Of your desires and work for it. .-t

A Valuable Discovery,

Richard Jones OF Berkeley, England, has
lately been granted a patent to preserve
meat in the United States. The invention
relates TO a novel method Of preserving
meat in the entire carcass, and 1t consists
of utilizing the circulative organs Of the
blood to equally distribute throughout the
body o solution of preserving fluid, and
by this action to mingle the substances in
timately with the blood, so that they per-
meate the whole body and coagulate with
the blood in every part, and thus thorough
ly preserve the meat. By this process the
animal Is first rendered senseless; a por-
ton of the blood is then Withdrawn, and
the solution is forced into the circulation
before the heart has ceased TO beat. The
remaining impulses Of the heart suffice to
force the solution into all the blood vessels,
and 1t will be coagulated with the blood in
the smaller capillary tubes, while the
larger blood vessels will be emptied in the
usual manner, and the preservative will be
firmly incorporated with the whole mass.
The meat will always present fresh, bright
appearance, not differing from meat re-
Gently killed.
]. A. Jones, brother Of the patentee, and
one-third owner Of the patent for the
United States, is now in Eureka, but will
o leave for Arizona, where he intends
TO embark in the butchering business. He
is confident Of success, having experiment.
ed at Candelaria and other places, where
he has preserved meat for weeks in the
hottest Summer months.

NOVICE.
A BungIing Attempt TO open a Safe
with Carpenters' Tools.


A bold attempt was made yesterday |
morning, between the hours Of 2 and 4
o'clock, to blow open Graham l. Co.'s
safe, which, since the erection OF Clark &
Malatesta's building. has stood therein.
There being not much going on anywhere
after l o'clock in the morning, Mr.. Clark
concluded to close up the house, but left
one lamp in the chandelier near the door
burning at full blaze. The audacity Of
the act consists in the fact that the passer-
by only had to take one step off the walk
to get a full view of the safe and those at
work upon it, and then the tools employed
were of a primitive order--a brace and bit
for drilling iron. The brace, however,
was not of the kind for rapid work. 1t
was of the old style, and was made ex-
pressly for carpenters and machinists who
hire out by the month. An entry was ef-
fected by the Buel street doorway, the
catch for the lock bolt being forced off by
tried in the key-hole OF the safe, but evil
IDENTIFY did not work satisfactorily, proba-
bly, catching at every turn on the edge of
the aperture, thereby ~endangering the
breaking of the tool. Fearing such a re-
suit, an attempt was made to run through
the plate of steel, about two inches below,
but only a small indention was made, a
quarter of an inch or so being drilled out
before the insertion of a key in the front
door put the novice to flight. Between
lodging out of sight every time a person
passed along the sidewalk and hitting a
whisky bottle occasionally, the burglars
work must have been necessarily slow F;
hence the poor progress made towards the
bowels of the safe. Had the endeavor
| proved a success, how humiliating the thief
| would have felt to only find about $500
therein, and then to read in this mornings
SENTINEL that in the little safe near by
there were as many thousands. Verify,
the ways of Providence are past finding
out, and the fellow should now adjourn to
some secluded opium den and return
thanks.
The rafting of the key, which so mate
rally interfered with the opening Of the
safe, was caused by the Chinaman whose
duty it is to daily purge the Palace Saloon.
He was dropping in to dc his work, and as
he entered he heard q departure through
the club-room. His 1.-THE Chinaman's)
queue Strengthened out like a cows tail in
the month of January, and he straightway
departed on the trail leading to Chris.
Malatesta's residence. Chris lost no time
in making his toilet, and in the club-room
found the tools and remnant of the whisky.
The burglar had evidently gone right to
work upon entering, and had lost 40 time
in rumaging behind the bar or elsewhere,
The officers are well aware who the snide
operator is, but have no positive proof as
yet.

We, the jury impaneled TO inquire into

How Whistler Painted a Ceiling.

Probably you have heard of Whist
ler's extravaganza in houses. He was
engaged to decorate noble mansion in
Belgravia; the price was no object to the
owner-and for that matter neither was
it to Whistler. One day friend asked
me to 90 over and see one of the rooms
that was nearly completed, and has
tened to accept the invitation. This is
what we saw on entering: A very slim,
spare figure extended on mattress in
the middle of the floor; beside him an
enormous palette, paints, half-dozen
long bamboo fish-poles resting on line
with their butts close at hand, and a very
large pair of binocular glasses. Whist
Ter, dressed wholly in black velvet, with
knickerbocker pantaloons stopping just
below the knee, black silk stockings and
low pointed shoes, with silk ties more
than six inches wide and diamond
buckles, was flat on his back, fishing
rod in hand and an enormous eyeglass
in one eye, diligently putting some fin
ishing touches on the ceiling, his brush
being on the other end of the fish-pole.
Occasionally he would pick up his double
glasses like some astronomer peering at
the moon, and having gained nearer
and better view of the effect, he would
again begin to agitate the paint-brush at
the other end of the long pole.
"Now wouldn't be fool" said he,
''to risk myself on a scaffolding and
nearly twist my head off my shoulders
trying TO look upward when | can over
come the difficulty and annihilate space
so easily thus P''-and he gave wave of
his fish-pole.
And such room! one mass of gorge
Gus purple and blue, ornamented solely
with an enormous number of the eyes of
a peacock's feathers. 1t was a room to
make man lunatic in week. 1t was
as if all the peacocks in Christendom
had settled down upon one, and were
about to smother one in tail-feathers.
And this was the celebrated "peacock
room" about which all London went
wild not long afterward. London Let
ter
