Three Dear Old Ladies' W no Suggest Miss
wilkins Characters.
From Harpsr's Bazaar.
This little garden Is in st. Germain and 1t
belongs to three old ladies, who might be
described as French TRANSACTIONS of some Of
Miss Mary wilkins New England old
maids.
The youngest Of them Is sixty-three and
the Oldest seventysix. They are simple
souls. who live on small incomes. what to
an outsider looks like very narrow and I'M
eventful lives, and whose sole pleasure
seems to lie in their garden.
don't know whether you remember Miss
wilkins Harriet and Charlotte. and the
delight they took In the little garden-p patch
behind their house. 1t had some struggling
rows Of currant bushes and gooseberries in
It, and a few pumpkins and old apple trees.
That seemed to be a fair specimen Of New
England gardens in little country towns, as
revealed by Miss wilkins stories. They
never yielded anything much more substan-
tial, il remember rightly, than pinks and
asters, fruit and dandelion green's.
But to these old sisters this was their
Universe" "the little taste nature had set
apart for them alone out of all her
bounty" And the old French ladies' had so
exactly the same feeling that could not
help being reminded-as II one needed re-
minding-that human nature was the same
all over the world. and at the same time
that gardens were not all a little more
alike. especially little more like those in
France.
There was some reason for having faith
in the one at st. German. 1t was so full
of good things in small space that it re-
minded me of George Herbert's line:

A Philauthropic Failure.
rom the New York Evening Post.

From the New York Evening Post.
The experiment OF providing canteens in
factories. at which workmen can get good
food at something less than cost price. ap-
pears to have been a failure in South Ger
many. According to areport from the
British Consul at Mannheim. the workmen
absented themselves from the dining halls
after the first sense of novelty had died
away. He quotes figures to show that one
factory with 1900 hands now has only 800
diners; another, with 300 hands. only 80; a
third. with 400 workmen, barely 20: while
at a fourth, with $50 workmen, only thirty
avail themselves OF the privilege. Many
contradictory reasons are given Tor this
state Of affairs. One firm writes:
THE result confirms our first opinion
concerning the social political legislation.
We think that the workmen should be af-
forded opportunity to help themselves and
In their own fashion. Benefits conferred
or enforced upon them, although accepted,
are by no means fully appreciated. The
workmen regard them with Indifference.
whereas all self effort in the way of i'm
provement. as provision against illness and
disability, and cheaper and better food and
the like produces more satisfaction and
short we think 1t would be better to point
out to the workman how he can improve
his position than with outlay of money to
force benefits upon him." The consul is
inclined to ascribe the failure of the
scheme to the interference with the Gus
toms and sense of independence of the
men. They had been in the habit of hav-
ing their dinners brought by their wives.
children or friends, and the dinner hour
brought them freedom and society. The
canteen system, which compelled them TO
eat in a body and under restraint was a
great contrast and a change not at all to
their satisfaction. The superior and cheap
er fare was not sufficient compens ation,
and they preferred the society of their
family at dinner. even though the dishes
were less luxurious. The supply Of coffee

There are some women who are never so
irresistible as when wearing matronly airs.
Now, the woman IN my sketch Is very ar
tistically attired, but there is nothing In

She knows IL. too. and ten to one 1t is a

In my sketch the gown of the mater Is of
moss-green crepon, cut like blouse and
trimmed around the yoke and armholes
with lace. The yoke and sleeves can be
made either Of Eoss-green cloth or silk or
may be of green silk also. and the ribbon
ends may be green. If black velvet is used
for yoke and sleeves, let the belt and rib
bons be black also. The skirt is trimmed
with narrow lace and a ribbon heading
The child is dressed in what is known as
an American frock. which should endear
1t to all patriotic mothers. The material is
blue crepon. and the frock Is suitable for

bonnet Is of cambria trimmed with en-
broidery. Notice the sweet confdingness
of the baby's face and the tender clasp of
the hands. Is 1t not alluring to a sympa-
thetic beholder? II Is not difficult to under
stand why the adult feels that the child Is
an excellent set-on to her own charms.

Repairing an Ocean Cable.

Prom the New Orleans Times-Democrat
It has always been q matter OF specuia-
ton and wonder to most people as TO how
a marine cable once broken IN midocean 10
ever got together again The explanation
Is this: First. il must be known that the
cable practically rests everywhere on the
bottom of the sea- OF course there are
places where sudden deep places coming be-
tween shallow ones will cause the cable TO
make span over a ravfne or gully.
In other places the ocean Is so deep that the
cable finds Its specific gravity somewhere
IN midwater, SO TO speak In that case "

When a break occurs the first etep. OF

tain amount OF obstruction or resistance"
to the passage OF an electric current. APP
o9 tss ' unit ef
sistance is called an ohm. The resistance
of the average cable Is. roughly speaking.
three ohms per nautical mile. Resistance
practically ceases at the point where the
conductors make considerable contact with
the water. Therefore. II when measuring
uring apparatus indicates n resistance OF
900 ohms the position OF the fault will be
known TO be 800 miles from shore.

rope securing the grapnel passes under this.

ends are brought together on deck the cleo

other defective places and that the cable Is
perfect in both directions. This having been
satisfactorily determined all that remains
is TO splice the ends together and drop the
cable once more back into the sea
