DISADVANTAGES.
LILLE DEVEREUX TELLS WHY WOMEN
SHOULD NOT DESIRE
To be Beauiful-Trisls Of a Society Belle
Beauty is Overwhelmed With Unsought Attsn-
ticns and is Often Unfairly Criticissd-LoTsli-
ness has It's Evils.

Probably no gift has been so unlver-
sally desired by all human beings as
that of personal beauty. Not even
riches have been so longed for, not even
power has been so craved. All alike,
the lofty and the lowly, the civilized
and the savage, every one, al least in
youth, has longed for the glory OF noble
form and handsome face. The standard
of grace may vary, what is esteemed
loneliness in one race or age may not be
in another, but whatever the ideal Of
beauty may be in any day or genera
ton, that does each person wish TO
have.
Men as we'll as women have this COM
mon aspiration OF humanity, and the
denial OF co melness has been a bitter
trial TO the greatest souls. Julius
Caesar, amid his mightiest triumphs, re-
GREETED that he had not the charm OF
harmonious features instead or the
grim visage that war had given him.
Cicero always lamented his unfortunate
disagreement, and Dlogenes envied
the handsome Alcibades.
AS personal pulchritude" has been
thus valued by the sterner sex, so 1t has
been ever the first and strongest desire
OF women's hearts. At the threshold OF
life, were all fortunes favors offered
with the right to choose only one
wealth, power, wit or good health
most girls would pass these all by to
gain the fairy crown OF beauty. Small
wonder is it. since in the past the
Queens OF the worlds story have been
the beautiful women. Helen, Cleopatra
and Mary Stuart-These are the women
OF history who are remembered. Plain
women have played here and there im-
portant parts in history, but no such
Iustre attaches to their names as en-
riches the memory Of those who were
fair 10 look upon.

ARTIFICIAL LIGHTNING,

The process OF making artificial light
ming is somewhat curious. The chief
idea is plate OF glass quarter OF an
inch thick; cover one side with sheet
of tinfoil, the other side with any design
or lettering that may be wanted, cut out
Of tin, and that also must be backed
with tinfoil. Then attach an electrical
current to the side Of the glass covered
with tinfoil. The effort Of the electri-
cal current to get through the glass,
that being, of course, impossible
results in general scattera-
ton OF the current. When 1t brings
I'D against the glass it goes off in
thousand directions, zlgzagging, the
whole effect being brilliant series OF
flashes such as one sees in the summer
clouds. As was said, this is more In
teresting as novelty than likely to be
useful as a discovery. One feature OF
the display is peculiar, and that is that
when the heavy current Of many thou
sands Of volts strikes the glass plate 1t
makes almost as mighty crash as the
fiercest shrek of natural lightning.

A Rare Georgia Cow.

A cow that gives milk which changes
to butter without churning is a rare
thing. Mr.. Lawson E. Brown, OF
Rozier. Burke county, Ga, says be has
one. When the milk is strained OF
after milking, the cream which rises on
it is very thick, changes, or rather har-
dens, into the consistency of butter,
and 1t is used as butter without going
through the process OF churning.

MANY PRACTICAL USES.

The uses of electricity, all supplied
by the big dynamos In Machinery Hall,
ars almost countless in their number.
Not the least of the interesting features
of their Illuminating power are the big
search lights. Next 10 the fire works
on Fourth Of July night, the vast null
titude viewed with most interest the
workings Of the search lights on the
battleship Illinois and on the roof OF
the Manufacturers Building. Indeed,
the search lights added greatly TO the
endowment Of the pyrotechnic display.
Notably was this the case when the BAL
loon went up. In the night few people
would have known anything about a
balloon, for until the search lights
caught it in the heavens and held 1t In
their glare it was invisible. At one
time there we're three search lights
aimed at the balloon, and they held 1t in
the clouds like ball OF fire. One was
from the batteship, one from the Man
facturers' Building and the third from
the whaleback steamer. The effect of
these streams of light aiming at focal
point and concentrating their glare on
small anu utuulbo OOJCSH was VOL J
pretty and aroused much enthusiasm.
The search light on the battleship Is
supplied from the big dynamos In Ma
chlnery Hall, but unfortunately the
power is not great enough to work the
light with the facility and brllllancy
which would be required in actual SER
vice afoat. The real battleship will
have four search lights, and will, OF
course, be supplied with power from its
own dynamos.
Perhaps one Of the most homogeneous
are certain uses Of the electric light over
In Midway plaisance. To go into the
Dahomey village, for instance, and see
over the door of each little bark hut an
electric lamp looks very odd. Aud the
same with the Samoa and Japanese
matched huts. All are lighted with
electricity. 1t is almost as great an an
tithesis Of barbarism and civilization as
the spectacle in that same Dahomey
village OF Dahoman amazon cooking G
native meal over trst-class modern
American range. But, then, the queer
things to be seen at the fair, the curious
juxtapositions and incongruIties are too
numerous to mention in one article.

Medicine as a profession for women Is
less than fifty years old. DR.. Mary
Zakrzewska, OF Boston, has recently pub
lished an interesting account of the early
struggles of the pioneers in this partic-
ular field. Harriet Hunt M Elizabeth
Blackwell were stirred by the idea that
an important work might be don by
well instructed medical women. The
naturalization OF this view resulted in
complete social ostracism. impossible to
be endured by any but the strongest and
most courageous women. No woman
doctor ever earned a living before 1850.
No respectable family, in any common
ly respectable neighborhood, would let
rooms to a woman physician. Even
when friends gave her shelter, a bust
mes card or sign was not allowed. The
lack OF practical training was really tn
stumbling-block and the cause of all
this prejudice.

GET RID OF IT.

The meeting OF the Rapid Transit
after n long rest from Its
labors. does not seem to
promise any very rapid completion of
that energetic body's work. Mr.. Bushe.

for the evnted system, made his prop
osition for rival elevated lines, which
might very readily and smoothly be
eased of into a renewa Of dealings
with the Gould corporation, to which
Mr.. Bushe evidently has n secret attach
ment. But a real. vigorous. live effort
to secure absolute rapid transit seems
to be nearly, II not quite. as far of as
ever.
To be sure we have n momentary
CLEAN OF hope through the Reno syndi-
cate business, but II there is any serious
intention to construct an underground
road, why Is not something definite and
practical proposed at once? People have
grown suspicious of these repeated sug-
gestions inc look upon them as nothing
more than tricks for delay. To the need
OF rapid transit Is now added the desire
to be relieved of this expensive Com
mission, and II no practical proposition
is to be made the Commission ought to
be abolished at once. The people are
tired of the humbug.

HANDS OFF,!

The little difficulty In Brazil is getting
interesting to the people OF the United
States. 1t begins to be plainly a Ques-
ton OF the continuance OF n republican
form of government there or the re-
establishment OF a monarchy. Hence
we are brushing up the Monroe doc
trine and getting 1t ready for use, n
the announcement is made from Wash
ington that our Government will not
allow the monarchy to be restored in
Brazil by the aid of outside agencies.
Meanwhile the Nictheroy has started
for Brazil. and the other American YES
sells will speedily follow. As 1t is said
that Admiral Mello has sent out two yes
sells to meet and intercept Nictheroy, we
are likely soon to have some exciting
news. But whatever may be the re-
suit, "outside agencies will please take
notice that they must keep hands N
so far as the restoration OF the Brazil
Ian monarchy is concerned.

THE TRUE LESSON.

The reversal OF tho Democratic ma
jority In the State by the election OF the
Republican state ticket and a Republican
Legislature was a condemnation OF the
methods OF the Democratic State ma
hin which had forced upon the De
mocracy the scandalous nomination Of
Judge Maynard for the Court OF APP
peals and OF machine ruled Senators and
~Assemblymen for the Legislature.
But II was an Endorsement Of the
methods Of the Republican State machine
which. under the guidance OF Boss Plat,
Is now contemplating the reversal Of the
peoples will in several Senatorial and
Assembly districts and the unseating Of
duly elected Legislators for the purpose
OF securing to the Republicans a two
thirds Legislative majority?
TIL refusal OF between thirty and
forty thousand Tammany Democrats to
vote for Judge Maynard in the face OF
the direct orders of Mr.. Croker that
every Tammany man should do his best
to put Maynard ahead OF all other can
didatcs must assuredly be accepted as
an insurrection against the Tammany
rulers and a rebuke of their methods.
But did this manifestation OF inde-
pendence mean that the Tammany voters
who are dissatisfied with the Tammany
machine under Boss Croker are anxious
to resuscitAte the County Democracy
machine under Boss Power?
The great reform victory In Brooklyn
was rebuke OF McLaughlinism n Nc
Kaneism, but was It designed to replac,
those leaders by a Republican machine
in a Democratic city by the W Of
the city patronage?
There appears to be some danger tina
the verdict of the election In this STATE
may be misunderstood.
