AN ALL-AROUND INTELLECTUAL
MAN.

He was up in mathematics. had taste for hydro
states, and could talk about astronomy
from Aristarchus down:
He could tell what kind of beans were devoured
by the Chaldeans and he knew the date OF
every Joke made by circus clown.
He was yersed in evolution, and would instance
the poor Russian as type of despotism in
the modern age of man;
He could write page of matter on the different
kinds OF batter used in making finty GIN
cracks on the modern cooking pan.
He conld revel in statistics, he was we'll up. in
the hstics, knew the pedigree of horses dat
ing way back from the ark.
Far and wide his tips were quoted, and his base
ball stuff was noted In political predic-
tions he would always hit the mark.
Flo could write upon the tariff and he didn't
seem to care If he was called off to re view
book CT write poem or two;
He.could boil down stuff and edit. knew the
value of credit, and could hustle with the
telegraph in style excelled by few.
He could tell just how fire should be handled;
rs \ liar he was sure to exercise wise dis
criminative taste.
He was mild and yet undaunted, ard no matter
what was wanted he was always sure to get
it first, yet never was in haste,
But despite his reputation as n brainy aggrega-
ton he was known to be deficient in y
manner to proyOke
For matter when you met him he would for-
row it you let him, and he seemed to have
the faculty of always being broke.

WAGES OF INTELLECTUAL WOMEN

Thomas Wentworth HiEginson Discusses
the Subject in Hnrpei's Bazaar.
remember we'll, more than thirty years
ago, when the principal of one of the best
academies in Massachusetts boosted to me
that he had just offered to his first assistant
higher salary than had ever before been
paid to a woman as teacher in that county.
The amount thus offered and gratefully 40
cepted was $500. The salaries paid by en-
dowed academies have generally gone above
those offered in public schools, yet the
newspapers have lately recorded the fact
that two women have just been awarded
salaries fixed respectively at $3.50 and
$1,000, in Massachusetts, as principals of
public grammar schools; and the one wo-
man on the board of school supervisors in
Boston has. if mistake not, much higher
compensation than this. 1t is safe to saw
that salaries of 81 900 for women's services
Ms teachers, clerks and bookkeepers
are now much more common than
we're salaries of half that amount
forty years ago. while the ex-
penses of living have not increased in any
thing like that proportion. On the other
hand, it is also true that to gain these
higher salaries a far more expensive educa-
lower ones, and that the number of women
competing for employment is still much
greater in these particular directions than
is the case with men. Our public libraries,
for instance, are coming largely to be Of
fcered by women, simply from the fact that
the salary which would only secure one
efficient man will commonly provide two
equally we'll qualified women. Now in most
of these cases the law of demand and sup
ply governs. A school or library can COM
monty only pay certain amount, and
must get the best it can for the money. 1t
is only in especially difficult positions-as
in the post of grammar-school principal
that trustees are becoming to be willing to
paw what the services are intrinsically
worth, without regard to the number Of
ompetitors.
There are. as has before been pointed out
in these columns, but two prominent occu-
pations in which there seems no distinction
of sex as regards compensation. One of
these is the stage Including the concert
room. and the other is literature. Accor-
dinghy it it said in the newspapers that the
two women of this generation whe have
earned the largest incomes are Ouida and
Patti. Even on the stage, ana told. there
is . little difference in payment at the out
set, and walking gentleman" receives q
little more than walking lady" 1t is
also trus that the expenses of an actress,
in the direction Of costumes. are 90 vastly

This public document OF President
Harrison IL usually brief, pointed and
business like. It is not at all c0mpli-
Gated, but such q statement OF public
matters a. will commend itself and its
author to the good graces OF all who in
telligently read.
The revenues OF the country, during
the year, amounting to above $A5QOO.-
600, have been collected and disbursed
without revealing q single case OF de-
falcation or embezzlement. This is an
extraordinary record, and speaks we'll
for the officers who are administering
the business affairs Of the country.
After brief summary Of the business
of each department, the president refers
to the federal election laws, and declares
his opinion on the same as positively a.
ever. He says that the defect in the
laws is that they are not effective. The
present stops just short Of effectiveness.
Everything OF value in our system OF
government is lost, and the purity OF
elections is not maintained. The presi-
dents language on this subject is very
clear and emphatic, and the congress, in
this, il not in all his recommendations,
should follow his advice.

The Quality OF Wheat.

For number OF years it has behooved
farmers who grow wheat to consult lead
ing millers frequently as to the kind of
berry praferred. To superficial OBJ
ssrver it might seem that wheat good at
one time would be equally in demand at
any other. This, however, is not the
fact. Fashions change in -four, not
quite so often as they do in apparel, but
with equally momentous results. Twen-
ty-ive years ago white wheat ss full of
starch as the kernel could hold COM
manded 10 to 20 cents a bushel more
than any other. The demand was then
for nearly pure starch -four, and other
materials were run through as waste
products for hog and cattle feed. After
a while the fashion changed. New pro-
cesses were devised for making -four
with a larger proportion Of gluten, which
is tho most nourishing and strength Civ
ing part of the grain. Then for q time
red wheats commanded as much premi-
um as white wheat formerly did. At
present the best -four requires mixture
OF red and white wheats. The more
starch the better for pie and pastry.
The more gluten the better the -four is
for bread. Many first-class modern mills
use both the Odd buhr stones for grind
ing, and the new iron rollers for making
the roller process flour. The latter will
always be best for bread making. and is
always dearest, while the cheaper white
wheat flour, mainly starch, is not only
as good but much better for other pur-
pOses.-IEX.
