na,n nauea for Flirting.

The courts of St. Paul will soon have an opportunity to pass upon very i'm portant question. For many years close students of social problems have been mystitied by the discrepancies shown by various legal tribunals in fix ing money valuation upon the female heart At Grand Rapids the other day jury awarded pretty plaintiff five cents damages for breach of promise to marry while last year wealthy man was nulct in the sum of $55, ,000 for his tickleness in fracturing the cardiac apparatus of trusting spinster Now comes St. Paul young man, who sues his sweetheart for $5.OOO damages for flirting. -....-. ....

Photographfng Specters.

It is possible that the famous specter of the Brocken may yet have it's photo graph taken, and so become familiar to thousands who have never seen the mysterious shade itself. It is known that the so called specter is simply the shadow of a person standing upon the mountain, projected upon the surround ing mist.
 Two or three years ago Professor Hazen. while making meteorological observations on the summit of Mount Washington. used to amuse himself by causing the specters of night visitors to the observatory to appear in the mist enveloping the peak.
 For this purpose it was only neces- sary to so place a light as to cast the shadow of a person upon the foggy cloud ahead of him.
 Sometimes a gigantic specter, was produced with startling distinctness, although never any equaling the phe nomenon seen from the Brocken, where the conditions are peculiarly favorable. Recently MT. A. w. Clayden has re- ported to the Royal Meteorological SO ciety the results of similar experiments made by him in the London fog of last February. He succeeded in raising his own specter by placing lime light be- hind his head. Then he photographed the specter Youths Companion

The Kaiser's Offer to Salisbury,

The Emperor William offered to make Lord Salisbury Knight of the Black Eagle; but there never was any idea o1 the prime minister accepting that or der, for his doing so would have ere ated embarrassing and undesirable mis- apprehensions at every court in Eu. rope. Moreover, the queen must have returned the compliment by giving a G. 0. B. to General Caprivi, which would have strengthened the impres sions abroad which it was the object oi her majesty and Lord Salisbury to re move
 The only British statesman who was a Knight of the Black Eagle was the Duke of Wellington, who received the great Prussian order from Frederick William III after the battle of Water loo. The duke made it point to wear the black eagle at every function which took place when Frederick Vii liam w visited England in lS42, in cluding the christening of the Prince ot Wales, after which ceremony the gen eral collaboration was so excessive that the silver wine cooler of George w was filled with mulled claret, which was served out in bucketfuls to the guests at Windsor castle.

THE TOBACCO CROP.
Housatonic Valley Farmers Repudiate
 Early Sales of their Crops.

Housatonic Valley Farmers Repudiate
 Early Sales of their Crops.
 Trouble is brewing between the to- bacco ralsers and tobacco buyers up the Housatonic valley, and the many dis putes that have already arisen and are likely to arise will make business for the Litchfield county courts. The suits this year will not be like those of for mer years. wh n the tobacco raiser was the plaintiff and the tobacco buyer the defendant The situation is reversed. The tobacco raisers are giving the tobac- co buyers 8 dose of their own medicine and are jumping early made contracts by the wholesale
 These contracts called for the deliv- cry of the tobacco at anywhere from 10 to 20 cents a pound. In some instances contracts were made in writing. but more often by verbal agreement entered into while the tobacco stood in the field. About the tine the disastrous hail storms came, destroying thousands of dollars worth of the crop, the price per pound advanced, and plenty of buyers were found willing to pay 20, 25, or even 30 cents 8 pound The early buy-
 
 over the way they had induced. the far mers to sell 80 cheaply and hastened to remind them that the bargain was bind ing.
 The sharp methods practiced by the buyers Tn previous years, however, when they made contracts and violated them afterwards. were remembered by the farmers. They remembered full veil how the buyer, after making a con- tract. had refused to give them more than half the amount when the time fol settlement arrived. The prices on goods delivered were determined by the state of the market at the tin.e The tobac. co growers had no recourse but the courts. Often without the means to expend in an endeavor to obtain satis. faction in that way, they were oompell. ed to take whatever was offered. Re. membering all these things, the farmers this year have repudiated the contracts made with early buyers and have sold their tobacco over again at the advan ced rates. The first buying agents are angry and threaten suit. The farmers | say that they only are giving the buy CTS dose of what they themselves have received in previous years. In law { verbal contract, if substantiated by evi dence, is as binding as written con tract, but to establish such contract ir court is often more costly than the ] amount involved in the controversy Some of the farmers have been pupils of this expensive object lesson, and art perfectly willing that the buyers should | be educated in the same school.

How to Divide Cellar in the City.

In a cellar where there is furnace it is great hell to household manage ment to have a portion of the cellar divided from the furnace portion by 8 tight board partition. with padlocked door opening into it. The boards used may be rough and cheap, costing two cents foot. but the partition must be tight. so as not to admit the warm air from the furnace Under ordinary cir cumstances the expense need not be over ten dollars, and in many cases even less.
 In this cold cellar the vegetables and apples, butter and preserves may be kept, and even in the city the uncom- fortable habit of living from hand to mouth might be changed to a great de- gree. Here the time honored vinegar barrel or keg may have its place, giv- ing out it's supply of ''pure cider" vine gar whenever needed. Near by should be the swinging shelf and cupboard. and the old time feeling of plenty and comfort which the memory of the we'll filled cellars of country homes always brings, would return to the household -Harper's Bazar

A Dolls Graveyard.

Living in Oakland is a five-year-old miss with grewsome idea in regard to playthings. In. the yard of her mothers house she has grave which she looks after as carefully as a mother does her only son's last resting place. Several weeks ago she asked her mamma if baby dolls died and what became ot them. Being answered in the negative she said she was sorry, as she would like to have a dead dollie."
 Several days later she sat one of her dolls on the sill and purposely allowed it to fall from the window to the ground Poor dollie's head was cracked by the drop of ten feet, and the five year-old immediately declared it was dead. She then got some kitchen utensils, and, unseen by any melnbe, of the family, she dug grave along side the fence in the shade of an old apple tree. She made the grave about 15 by inches, and the top of it about u inches above the surrounding ground Twice every day since then she visits the small mound ito fix it up." Yesterday afternoon, about the time loving hands were placing flowers and watering the plants on graves of relatives in the different cemeteries n and around the city, the little girl was arranging flowers on the dolls grave Around the edge she placed white lady slippers" and in the center laid a small cross of red carnations. From a | washstand she secured an oblong piece of white marble, which she stuck in the ground at the head of the grave, after vainly trying to make marks on it giving the dolls name, age at death, etc. She says she is going to have a regular graveyard, and will invite other little girls to bury their dead dolls it it. -Pittsburg Post. ,
