FOR A CHILDREN'S LIBRARY.
Chicago Publishers WuI Make a Unique
Exhibit of Books.

Plans for the library in the childrens
building at the worlds fair have been
fully matured. and their realization is
gradually taking form. The work is
in the hands Of the committee on litera-
ture for children in the woman's branch
of the auxiliary, Mrs. Clara Doty Bates
chairman, all members being residents
of Chicago.
The committee aims to have this Ii
brary representative of the best litera-
ture of all nations. Its object is not
only to guide and influence children,
but to furnish parents with suggestions
for the selection and arrangement of
home libraries. 1t will at the same
time be an exhibit for publishers of
children's books and periodicals from
all over the world.
The managers of the children's build
ing believe it best not TO have a room
specially set apart as library, which
TO be seen would have TO be sought.
With rare forethought toward the
most easily accessible and widest bene-
fits in all departments of the building,
they have decided that the books and
periodicals shall be arranged in a gem
eral reception-room, where they would
come more constantly to the notice of
visitors than if isolated.
Besides the library proper, two cases
are TO be set apart consisting of the
choicest books, one of twenty volumes
for young children and another of fifty
for youth. These are to be as nearly as
possible model collections and chosen
with the best wisdom of the whole com
mittee. The idea is largely education
al, and the hope is to make this exhibit
of great Importance TO parents and chill
dren whose opportunities are small.

Rouge Used Long Ago.

Personal adornment by means of
cosmetics has been practiced from most
ancient times, Classical writers in
form us that the danes Of Greece and
Rome derived the custom of using cos
metics from the Egyptians. Eastern
women of all times have freely in
dulged in painting and decorating, "
and it is probable that also from the
Egyptians the Jewish women learned
the habit which, being used by Jezebel
on a memorable occasion, has made her
name forever proverbial in connection
with the subject
In England the use of rouge as cos
metic commenced in the days when la
dies disfgured themselves by patches
of court plaster stuck on different parts
of the face-that is, about the middle
of the sixteenth century. The fashion
as to patches and abuse of cosmetics
eliminated during the reigns of the
two Charleses. While the wearing of
patches has almost completely disap-
peared-although it is impossible to
say it might not be revived-the use Of
rouge, in perhaps more moderate
fashion, has continued down to the
present day. In the case of vegetable
rouge, if properly prepared, its use IS
completely innocuous; but much that
is sold is said to contain preparations
of lead, making it highly dangerous to
California World.

A Vienna correspondent of the Lon
don Daily News tells the following
story of a Roumanian miser: "A Greek
died in the small town of Caracal. hay
ing always lived on the aims of his com.
patriots. Before dying he made his
wife swear that she would bury him in
the dirty old overcoat which he wore
every day. The poor woman had to ask
the Greeks of Caracal TO help her to pro-
vide the costs of the funeral. A good
hearted Greek went TO see her in her
affection, and, pointing to the body,
said he would give her better coat to
bury the man in. Then she told him of
the dead mans last wish. The Greek.
whose suspicious were awakened told
her that she should certainly not part
with the body before she had well ex-
amined the coat, for there must be some
particular reason for the request. The
widow unpicked the lining of the over
coat and found thirty-fve thousand
francs in bank notes which the miser
wished to take into the grave with
him."

SHOES IN JAPAN.
They Are Made OF Straw for Both Men
and Horses. '"

They Are Made OF Straw for Both Men
and Horses. '"
In the land of the Millado, il nowhere
else on earth, man and beast wear shoes
made of the same material-to-wit,
straw. One would naturally not think
that straw would make very good shoes
TO be worn even by man, and worn,
too, in the most gingerly fashion. Ger
tainly they would not be very durable
TO the average boy, who can "kick the
stufiing" out of school shoes in a few
brief weeks.
How then can it be expected.that they
would do horses any reasonable service
at all? Well, they don't; they wear out
so fast and have to be replaced so often
that anyone going for a long drive will
have to carry about CARLOAD of them
along. So often do the horses shoes
have TO be changed that the people have
come to do so at pretty regular inter
walls when on trip, and distance has
come to be measured by the length of
road a set of shoes will last In the
parlance of the country, one does not
travel so many miles, but so many sets
of shoes When you ask native how
far it is to any given place he will reply
so many sets of shoes. We don't know
that such is the fact, but probably when
the horses are done with their old shoes
they eat them.

KISSING THE BOOK.
Jurymen nnd Witnesses stiIl Sworn In the
Old Fasbiog Ia England.

Jurymen nnd Witnesses still sworn In the
Old FasbioG Ia England.
Ignorance of the provisions of Mr..
Bradlaegh's oaths act Of 1883 is, sup
pose, responsible for the fact that
hitherto jurymen and witnesses have
never, or hardly ever, exercised the
power they possess of demanding to be
sworn in the Scotch fashion, with right
hand held aloft, instead of by kissing
the book" says London Truth. How
ever, now that attention has been
called to the matter in the press, the
dirty and dangerous osculatory method
of administering the oath appears like
ly to be superseded by the more seemly
and Scotch practice A juryman was
sworn in the latter way at Liverpool
assizes recently, and at Fulton police
court a doctor objected ION sanitary
grounds" to kiss tho Testament which
was handed to him. IL court officials
were instructed to ask each witness or
juryman in which way he would be
sworn the nasty custom of "klssing the
book" would soon be thing of the past.

EARNED HIGH HONOkS.
The Interesting Career OF Missouris New
Chief Executive,

William j. Stone, the new governor
of Missouri, is Kentuckian by birth,
having first seen the light of day in
Madison county, in the blue grass state,
on the 18th of May, 1s47. In personal APP
pearance he is typical Kentuckian,
tall and straight as an arrow, with
well formed head poised upon broad
shoulders; his hair plentiful and as free
from "kink" as an Indians; a large,
firm mouth partially concealed by
luxuriant mustache and nose inclined
to be aquiline. Although he was too
young to be available for military duty
during the war, he enlisted in confed-
crate cavalry company in 1868 and per-
formed such duties as fell to the men,
bers of the organization, which was en-
listed as home guard. In 1868 he re-
moved to Missouri, studied law and
was admitted TO practice in 1867. From
1872 to 1874 he was prosecuting attor-
ney Of Vernon county, and made an ex-
cellent record, but relinquished the
position in order to devote himself to
his more profitable private practice and
to farming and stock raising toward
which he had pronounced leaning,
In 1884 Col. Stone was selected to
represent the Twelfth district Of Mis-
souri, in congress, and was reelected in
1886 and 1888. In the house he proved
himself to be an indefatigable worker
and held positions on the various COM
mittees on public lands, reform in the
civil service and on the labor troubles
in Pennsylvania. He was industrious
and vigilant in all matters coming be-
fore his committees, and his opinions
as to the advisability Of legislation con-
corning them carried great weight with
his colleagues. He was particularly
conspicuous by reason of his defense of
the people against the encroachments
of corporations and also took promi-
nent part in legislation designed to pre-
serve the public domain for the benefit
of actual settlers He is eloquent in de-
bate and when conscious of the recti-
tnde of his position is as firm as adaman-
tine rock.

JOHNNY WAS NO FARMER.

The Professor of Bumps Made the Big
gest Mistake of His Life.
Johnny is a bright lad of twelve win
ters and summers, and if he keeps on at
the rate he is now travelling he is des-
tined to become great man, says the
st. Louis Republic. His mother gave
him a quarter the other day, but instead
of investing in marbles or balls he de
terInined to consult phrenologist in
order, as he said, ''to find out what he
was good for He visited neighbor-
ing expert in bumps and deposited his
quarter, with the remark:
"Mister, please tell me all you know
bout me. See?"
The phrenologist placed Johnny in a
chair, and, beginning in a very impress
sive voice, said:
Young man, your forte in life lies in
the direction of the country. You
should be farmer"
There was a moment of silence while
the expert felt his way through Johnnys
bristling hair. Finally the phrenologist
began again:
-q.i"Ah. young man, here is another and
more decided bump. This protuberance
denotes want of energy. You should
exert yourself to run about, play with
other boys, take more exercise, and"-

She Is Young, Beautiful and q Major In

America has just seen the daughter of
