Washington Licenses Refused.

WASHINGTON, April 23.-The temper
ance portion of Wsshington's population

ment that Judge McIlyaine had refused to

The Court states in his decision that he
refused on the ground that he had not jul

which the applications were made, makes
no provision, and he so construes it as not
to apply to manufacturers.

Handing Wasps Without Harm.

It is a fact not generally known that
ii one holds his breath wasps, bees and
bcrnets can be handled with impunity.
The skin becomes sting-proof, and,
holding the insect by the feet, and CIV
ing her full liberty OF action, you can
zee her drive her weapon against the
irapenetrable surface with a force that
lifts her body with every stroke, but
let the smallest quantity of air escape
from the lungs and the sting will pene-
trate at once. / have never seen an
exception to this in twenty-five years
observation. I have taught young
ladies with delicate hands to astonish
their friends by the performance of
this feat, and saw one so severely
stung as to require the services of a
physician through laughing at witty
remark Of her sister, forgetting that
required breath. For theory
in explanation arHh 2 to believe that
s.sa2lding the breath nhprtially closes the
pors>.sS the skin. my experiments in
that objection haze not been exact
enough scientific value, but
am SATISFIED that it sensibly affects
the amount insensible perspiration.

The Wrong and Right Way.

How parents provoke their children
by unreasonable commands, by per-
petual restriction, by capricious jerks
at the bride, alternating with as
capricious dropping the reins alto
gether; by not governing their own
tempers; by shrill or stern tones where
quiet, soft ones would do; by frequent
checks and rebukes and sparing praise.
And what is sure to follow such mis-
treatment by father or mother? Bursts
of temper, for which the child is pun
ished and the parent is guilty, and
then spiritless, listlessness and apathy.
II can not please him, whatever do"
leads us to ranking sense of injustice,
and then to recklessness-. sit is useless
to try any more" And when a man
Or child loses heart there will be no
more obedience. Many a parent,
especially many father, drives his
child into evil by keeping him at a
distance. He should make his boy a
companion and playmate, teach him to
think of his father as his confident.
try to keep his child nearer to himself
than any body else, and then his au-
thority will be absolute, his opinion
an oracle, and his lightest wish law.

THEY ARE HARMLESS,
why Parents Need Not BE Afraid to Tive
Middie Names to Children

Middle Names to Children
a writer III an Eastern review who
believes not only that there is some
thing in name, but great deal
urges the people to cease giving mid
die names to their children. He finds
tina" individual greatness and worth in
America has been represented largely
by those who had no middle names.
Thus, of the fifty-three signers of the
Declaration of Independence only three
had more than one name. II the first
American Commercial Convention not
solitary delegate had a middle name.
In the convention of 1877 to revise the
Constitution, of the fifty-sia delegates
tifty-one had but one name OF the
forty-eight signers of the Articles of
Confederation only four had two
"given' names. OF the thirty-six
Speakers of the House in the first half
OF the century only twelve had middle
names. Of the five Chief Justices in
the same period none had middle
names, and of thirty-one Associate
justices in that time only five had
more than one name. OF the eighteen
Secretaries of State only two had mid
die names. OF eighteen Secretaries of
the Treasury only eight, of the TWENTY
SIX secretaries of War only nine, and
OF the twenty-one Secretaries of the
Navy but eight had middle names
we nave had twenty-five Presidents
and fifteen of them had no middle
name given them at birth. Of five
Senators who became President onlv
one was doubly named. This is
amusing. but is really not an ingenius
device to discourage double naming
and impress people with the suspicion
that there may be some subtle forces
directing the fate of men," and that ..a
name bestowed upon the helpless in
FAINT may produce effects marring the
career of the man. But let US see how
statistics of this character prove
nothing. The output of very few
minutes of search enable us to make
this showing: Of the thirty three Min
listers of the United States at foreign
courts tWenty-seven have two and five
have three given names. Of the sew
enty-siX United States Senators sixty
two have middle names. OF the Gov
ernors of the forty-eight States and
Territories forty have double names.
Of the twenty-seven Lieutenant-Gov-
errors twenty-six have two names. OF
the $50 names of distinguished poets, au-
thors, philosophers, clergymen, states
men, and literary lights for many CEN
turtles quoted in Hoyt & Wards ency-
clopedia 625 had two or more given
names. OF nearly 800 men and women
distinguished in American literature,
treated in C. F. Richardson's work (the
latest on American literature), the di-
vision is even between double and
single names. This sort of pleasantly
might be continued indefinitely. Sta
tistics in such matter are scarcely
valuable enough to be amusing.-Sac.

WOODEN jackets. They were wadded,
lined with alpaca and had the appear
ance of a garment made by an adept.
The sewing machine did most of the
straight work, but the buttonholes,
putting in the lining, and other work
had to be done by hand. The seams
had been pressed, the threads picked
off and the garments were neatly fold
ed and all ready to be sold. Wages
for the making of underwear, and in
deed for all gentlemen's apparel, have
dropped considerably during the past
few years. The pay of the girls who
make up the smaller articles, such as
gloves and neckties, does not average
more than SIS a week. Many have to
be content with less, and S. is consid-
cred good pay nowadays. Most of the
work is done by piece. Mems drawers
are made complete for so cents a
dozen pairs. For the hickory shirts
that laboring men wear, made out of
striped blue, IS cents dozen pair is
all that is paid. Overalls are made
complete for so cents dozen. Striped
calico and white shirts are made for IS
cents dozen. The forewoman fixes
the price and sees that the work is
satisfactorily done. If it is not good it is
not paid for. Forewoman's wages vary
from SIS to 500 week. A button
counter gets SO week during the busy
season and Sc during the slack time.
When the new shirts come from the
laundry she counts the buttons to see
that none are missing, folds the shirts
and puts them in boxes. There is a
general rule in factories that those
who work there are fined for being
late; 5 cents if they earn S. week
and 10 cents if they earn $10.-M. Y.
