Elizabeth, England's maiden sovereign, has

the pomps and vanities Of this world. in spite
of the fact that her reign was known as The
Golden Days of Good Queen Bess," and that
Shakspere and Spencer both wrote of her, and
that men and writings fourished. Her so
wigs, paints and powders, buckram stays, and
immense wardrobe are as much matter of
record as tho history of her successful Govern
ment. Hentzner German traveller, who Wis.,
tied her court, describes her as gracious and
intelligent woman withal. She was then in
her 65th year. but evidently was the same old

An English woman, describing visit to an
extensive gold mine in Victoria % years ago,
says that many of the workers in the mine
were shareholders and very rich. Few of them
seemed to have the slightest idea of the value
of money or how to spend it,
Many of those who can count their money
by thousands live in the same little shanties
which they built on first coming to the dig
giugs. They treat their friends ON every posi-.
BILE occasion, and when they go to the nearest
town buy for their wives the most expensive
dresses they can find. Few of them have any
higher idea of the pleasures or the advantages
or even the comforts to be attained by the pos
session of wealth.
AZ illustrating the characteristics Of such
men, gentleman told me this story:
He arrived at port in Australia, and finding
no one who looked like porter by profession
to take his portmanteau to the hotel, he said to
a rough-iooking man who was standing on the
wharf with his hands in his pockets:
Here my man, if you'll take this up to the
hotel for me I'll give you halfa-crown."
The man scowled at him, took q couple of
sovereigns out of his pocket, threw them into
the sea- turned away without a word and
marched off with the most contemptuous ex-
preston on his face

sawdust is too oily to be used successfully in
the drying process. At some stores boxes OF

It is a very much more difficult thing to find
suitable presents for man than for a woman,
of course. A suggestion, merely, is to make a

embroider it only with big, plain initial or

this tying knot in the hair, as it practically
is, does away with that effect. 1t depends both
on the shape Of the head and the amount of
hair as to the most becoming twist. Also, some
girls have to tie the hair up from the neck a
little in order to make it stay in place. The
hair is prettier if twisted and fastened rather
loosely.
Among tho books in the list of those every

The favorite way of arranging the hair is
low on the neck. 1t makes the face look
younger than the higher coiffures. The hair
is parted, waved on either side, and twisted
around in roll, or it is combed back without
any parting, with narrow bang falling over
the forehead. One way to make this knot is to
coil the hair around once loosely, then pull
what is left of the strand through the coil,
fastening it over and then under the coil.

What Edison Proposes to Do.

Photography of the heavens has revealed

returned to the listener intensified to degree
sufficient to make them easily audible. In the

In making underwear there are two ways OF

edge of the goods is trimmed of quite close TO
the seam. The other side is folded over and
hemmsd down with fine stitches. This is .
much daintier way Of finishing than the French
seams It makes the seam fatter and neater, but
it also requires much more work and time. The
French seam is made by first sewing il up with
the raw edges turned on the right side. These
are trimmed neatly of, and then the seam IS
turned and sewed up in the usual way with
seam on the wrong side. In the first sewing 10
is well TO make the seam wide enough that 10
may not pull out. for French seam looks par

Hallen & Hart presented their new
play "The Idea" for the second time on
any stage yesterday at the BijOu. A
good house witnessed the performance
in the afternoon and crowded one at
night. The play possesses many features
new to farce comedy productions. some
of which succeed in provoking the great
est degree Of laughter and applause: but
it should also be stated that it contains
much that lacks ginger or viii. the two
elements upon which farce comedy is
founded. These defects will doubtless
be remedied in a few perform
anceS. 1t is generally understood and
need not, therefore, be repeated
here. that the Hallen and Hart company
could make anv production entertain
ing, however inferior. There is an
abundance of singing and dancing
throughout by the most competent of
speciality artists. and the cOStuming and
stage settings are splendid. Miss Clara

parts are more legitimate. With little

A NEW CALCULATING BOY.
Inaudi Can Beat Mathematicians
Without Knowing Why,


No little sensation has been created
at the Paris Academy of Sciences by
the performances of a mental arithme-
tician. who, in the presence of the as
sembled members, has made the most
elaborate calculations in an incred-
IDLY short space of time, says
the London Times. The name
of this phenomenon is Inaudi. He is OF
PiedmenteSe origin, but was natural
lied a Frenchman some years ago.
lnaudi. who is now twentyfour, is a
small man with ha cad which is wOn-
derfully developed, and it is note
worthy fact that he was taken by BrOca
to the Anthropological society in 1880.
being regarded by the eminent savant
as remarkable boy.
He succeeded over and over again in
getting through two very complicated
calculations at the same time in about
half minute, and the extr aordinary
raplditv with which he solved various
problems evoked repeated applause
from the AcademicianS. In the great,
majority of cases his answer followed
almost Immediately upon the ques ton
put to him, but when he was confronted
with an exceptionally difficult task he
asked to be allowed to reflect moment.
In few seconds he exclaimed: II am
proving it, and then he added: ''Gen-
tlemen, here is the result, and it is
the result, and it is quite rightr'
Inaudi nevea made a mistake. The
academy of sciences then and there ap-
pointed a committee, which will place
Itself in direct communication with
the mental arithmetician with
view to ascertaining whet her
his wonderful talent cannot be turned
to practical account. 1t is thought that
his extraordinary gifts may be utilized
in astronomical calculations. maud
was introduced by NJ. Darboux, who rel
minded his colleagues that in 1910 the
geometrician Cguchy had presented to
the academy another phenomenon of
similar type in the person of Henr
Mondot.
NJ. DarbOuX, however, expressed the
opinion that lhaudi surpassed Mondot
in the skill and rapidity of his perform
anceS, for not only was he capable of
making in few moments calculations
which would demand great deal OF
time, even from an expert in these mat
ters, but he was also able to solve alge-
braical problems with amazing speed and
correctness. The result fully bore out
all that NJ. DarbOux had said in favor
of his protege, and the fact that Inaudi
should have produced such an impress
sion on the academicianS shows that,
unlike many so-called "prodigies, :" he is
possessed of genuine and rare talent.
The committee is composed not only of
geOmetricians and aSirOlOgers, but also
of psychologists.
