The Question Of Pockets.

The question of a pocket in the
glove fitting skirts Of the moment is
one which distracts the woman who
insists upon one. Some women do
not, but pin their faith and put their
handkerchiefs in their chatelaine
bags. Even these have a disadvan-
tage, worn too constantly. They
will rub and leave a not fresh look
ing place when they are taken off.
a suggestion is t. make separate
pockets of the skirt material and tie
about the waist before the gown IS
put on. An opening IN the seam adj
mits the hand.-New York Times.

A Possible Help for women.

Darning stockings, with the at
tendant horrors of mending and sew
ing on buttons, represents a batch of
work which comes regularly every
week to be done, and is a sore trial
to the woman who longs for the time
takes that she may give it to better
things. Yet she knows these tasks
are necessary, and that they must be
accomplished for the comfort and
well being of the family in her
charge.
Now there must surely be plenty
of women who cannot do finished Oh
high class work, yet to whom mend
ing and stocking darning, clearing
up Of rooms and busting would be
light and agreeable work, women
who, having az lie time, would be
willing to do such important yet
trivial homework for the small sum
of money the service is worth, They
need not be highly educated or very
young women; they need only be
willing, quick and ready to do well
any and every trife which comes up
for somebody to do. There are GER
tainly plenty of places waiting for
just such workers.
We hear much of the women who
are starving in making shirts at
three cents apiece and trousers at
FIVE cents a pair. The tales are too
well authenticated to be doubted.
But surely the work above suggested
would be easier, pleasanter and more
profitable to the women who are
keeping soul and body together on
such a pittance as that.-Harper's
Bazaar.

A woman.s Letter to a congressm

A womnn's Letter to n Congressman.
Most congressman are overrun with
letters and dispatches from people
whom they never heard of, asking
for documents, books, stationery, etc.
The sublime gaA displayed by some
of these citizens is truly wonderful,
but I think the woman who sent the
following postal card deserves the
cake:
DEAR S1R-Being referred to you
by the first assistant secretary Of the
interior department, saying that you
would get for me all the public focu-
ments which are published for dIstri-
button and information, please send
me all such documents of every de
partment and branch thereof of the
United States government. Also as
complete a set as possible of penalty
envelopes and cards and wrappers.
"Wll you kindly send me as COM
plete a set of stamps as possible from
every department Of the United
States government, and specimens OF
the general issues of the United States

"Iwould like the penalty envelopes

After Many Years.

A North Berwick doctor was sur
prised the other day. Several years
ago he aided a needy family in town
not only with professional services,
but with groceries. etc. Later they
moved away and were partially for
gotten. But they had not forgotten
the kindness, and the other day a
lady came to the doctor, recalled the
events and asked for the bill, which
she paid, and then added ten dollars
as a present. That family evidently
were of the deserving species. Lew

Ancestry of Dogs.

"Cats and dogs have a varied an
cestry," said a naturalist. People
commonly imagine that in speaking
of dogs they are referring to a single
species which has many varieties.
But in reality the name is merely a
conventional one, under which are
grouped in popular parlance all of
the domesticated canida. The North
American coyote is in fact much
nearer to the greyhound, geological
ly speaking, than the pug is. 1t is
simply a wild dog. So is the wolf
likewise. From just such wild types
mans faithful four footed friends
are descended. Washington Star.

How Water Is Preserved in the Cobb Desert
In that enormous waste known as
the Cobb desert, north Of China,
showers sometimes fall during the
summer, and the torrents Of e day

which water seldom runs. 1t is in
these channels that the Mongols dig
their wells. expecting to find a little
water, when upon the surface of the
plateau itself the soil has lost all

the fact hat a part of the moisture

Those people who assert that the crav.
ing for salt is a purely acquired taste, and
that this mineral as an article Of food is
neither nutritive nor otherwise beneficial
may point to the Esquimau race as evil
dence of the value Of their theory. The
natives met by our explorers on the rivers
Of North Alaska live almost exclusively
IN fish. They do not eat salt with their
ish, aud decline to eat salt bacon and
nam, firmly believing that white folks
poll good meat by their absurd practice
If sailing it. On the other hand, there
are probably few African tribes who do
not regard salt as one Of mans greatest
blessings. Many natives procure it along
The coast by evaporation, and tribes that
laye salt mines. as on the coast of Albert
Syanza, are always able TO sell their nrn-
Duct far and wide.

A charity concert was to bo given on
shipboard. says the author OF "A Winter

pointed day the wind and sea rose, and
almost every passenger succumbed to
sea-sickness. So rough did it become
that men and women lay prone in the
cabin, clutching at any visible means OF
support, in order TO escape being hurled
against the walls. All day long had the
manager Of the concert, paper and pencil
In hand, been cruising about, interview
ing inyalids for particulars Of the work
they proposed doing for the entertain
ment.
One minute he might be seen, arm
about stay, trying to make note on a.
paper, which would suddenly jump up
and poke the pencil in his eye. Then he
would be graphing with saloon chair,
which would dash at him and fell him to
