Where Women are Unknown.

It is commonly thought that men by
themselves must grow rude and savage
that it is to women we owe all the graces
and refnements of social intercourse.
Nothing can be further from the truth.
The writer ventures to say that in all
the world there is not so perfectly polite
and orderly a society as that CT Athos,
European Turkey. As regards hospi-
tality and gracious manners, the monks
of Athos and their servants put to
shame the most polished Western peo-
pie.
There, women are unknown, and dis
order, tumult, confusion seem i'm
possible in this land of peace. If they
have differences and squabbles about
the right of property, these things are
referred to law courts and determined
by argument of advocates, not by dis
putting and high words among the
claimants.
While life and property are still un-
safe on the mainland and on the sister
peninsulas of Cassandra and Longos,
Athos has been for centuries as secure
as iany country in Europe. So far,
then, all the evidence is in favor of re-
striction.
Many of the monks, being carried to
lie p eninsular in early youth, have COM
pletely forgotten what a woman is like,
except for the brown, smokey, religious
pictures, in which the form and features
of women are studiously made unlovely
and far from human.
What strikes the traveller is not the
rudeness, the untidiness, the discomfort
of purely male society; it is. rather,
its dizziness and depression. Some of
the older monks were, indeed, jolly
enough; they drank their wine and
cracked their jokes freely; but the
novices who attended at the table, the
men and boys who had come from the
mainland to work as servants, mule
teers, and laborers, seemed all suffering
under permanent depression and sad
ness.
The town of Karyes is a most sombre
and gloomy place. There are no laugh
ing groups, no singing, no games among
the boys. Every one looked serious,
solemn, istless, vacant, as the case
might be, but devoid of keenness and
interest In life.

Local Kansas Train.

In recognition of the demands of the Kan
.as travelling public, the Union Pacific has
put in service an early morning train out of
Kansas City, leaving Kansas City daily at
1886 a. IN. making all stops between Kansas
City, Salina and Mcpherson arriving at Salina
at 4:3O p. IN. and at Mcpherson, at 7:O5 p. m:
Returning, this train leaves Mcpherson at
9:5O a. m, Salina at 11:20 a. m, and arrives
at Kansas City at 6:10p IN.
This will enable people in the eastern part
Of the state to leave their homes, visit neigh
boring cities and return home the same day.
1t is hoped that the inauguration of this
service will accommodate large number of
people who have heretofore been unable to
10 this.

NEW DISCOVERY.


An Innovation In Soap making.
Few realize that one of the most import
int factors in keeping the skin in healthy
condition and free from pimples and blotch-
s, is the use of a perfectly pure soap, free
rom irrItants and noxious ingredients.
Most Of the so-called ''Toilet Soaps now
made are really injurious and many of the
kin diseases so prevalent, are aggravated by
heir use.
We take pleasure in calling the attention
If our readers to the advertisement of the
Jhesbrough Manufacturing Company, which
appears in another column. This Company
are the original discoveries, and only manu-
lecturers of Vaseline, known all over the
world as the best emollient and preservative
ever manufactured. After years of patient
experiments, they have recently been sue
,essful in making ''Vaseline " soap for the
kin, which is perfectly pure and neutral,
md which Is claimed to be the best ever
produced.
After having tried it we cheerfully recon-
mend the ''Vaseline" Soap to our readers.
It is not only a really meritoriOus article
rom medical point of view, but also an ell
,gant toilet soap.

al Talk Too Much. 4"


Judge" Bacon, of the Rock Island,
one of the best known and most popular
railroad men in the West, and who is
known here at his home as a man of
few words, was one of a merry party of
six at famous pubic resort the other
evening The Judge slipped his wine
in silence and listened patiently, and
at times with apparent pleasure, to the
witticisms of his companions. In the
party was Chicago man, who, after he
had partaken of few glasses of wine,
grew more than merry, though not
quite boisterous, and monopolized the
entire time with the recital of lot of
stale chestnuts. After an hour or
more of almost ceaseless babble the,
Chicago chestnut repository slapped.
Judge Bacon on the back and vocif-
Grated:
why don't you say something, old
fel? Wake up and tell US story"
Here was the Judges opportunity,
and he improved it.
%On an occasion of this kind, and.
under similar circumstances, he said
gravely, Il am always reminded of the
poll parrot that sat on perch in front
of bird fancier's. The parrot was a
very bright bird, but often kept up his
chatter so long as 10 make it irksome to
his hearers. One day, as the parrot
sat nodding on his perch, a couple Of
cur dogs trotted by, going in opposite:
directions. The dogs looked neither,
to the right nor to the left, but straight
ahead, until suddenly the parrot fairly
Kissed:
"'Sick EN-
"Then the dogs turned and calmly,
surveyed each other. They we're about:
to trot off in opposite directions when,
the parrot again shouted:
Sick EN-
@This was too much for the dogs"
continued the Judge. and they turned;
and grappled. They fought for several,
minutes, to the great glee of the parrot,
which had caused the trouble. Finally
the ours seemed to be satisfied, let go
of each others ears and started In
opposite directions again, when the
parrot yelled:
Sick EN-
"The two dogs caught sight of the
parrot at once. They seemed to form
mutual alliance for offense, if not defense,
and they pulled that parrot off his perch
and trounced him roundly, concluding,
BY rolling him in the muddy gutter.
| When the dogs let up on him the parrot
hoped back onto his perch, sadly the
worse Tor the encounter. He scratched
the mud out of his eyes, smoothed his
rufled feathers as best he could, and
then slowly calculated:
We'll, ri be id. I guess 1 talk
too much
%Frcm that day on, concluded the
Judge, @the parrot never spoke.
Those who had listened to Judge
Bacon's parrot story burst out with 8
roar of laughter. The Chicago man,
who had been talking necessarily for
hours, saw the point" and, like the
parrot, was silent for the remainder OF
the evening. Cincinnati Enquirer.

sYMPATHH.

We talked together, you and I;
1t was q queenly night In June;
Low hung the moon in yonder sky,
And on your cheek low glanced the moon.
Your gentle hand was mine to hold;
My iu-fed heart began to speak;
And ever, as the tale was told,
Dear friend, the moon was on your cheek.
Old loss that would not let me rest,
Old grief that slept, but ever lay
A languid load upon my breast,
Awoke, and wept themselves away.
Up climbed the moon, slow waned the night,
And still you bent TO hear me speak
I drank the comfort Of the light
In those bright tears upon your cheek.
From off my life the burdens fall,
Still in their grave through tranquil years
They rest, those weary sorrows all,
That faded in the light of tears.
