The Spirits Moved Him.

Mrs. Mullany had gone to sleep in her
chair; her ball of yarn had fallen to the
floor, where the cat was knitting cob
webs with it between the chairs.
Pat Mullany was smoking his old clay
pipe, and trying to get last weeks news
into his head by means of reading aloud
very slowly, and spelling the hard words.
Oblivious to his wife's nap, he said:
"Biddy, do ye moind that? Moi, but he

was found in cheaply reducing the tenn
perature even to lower point than this,
but sanitary considerations, and the COM
fort of the frequenters of such places, de-
termined that difference of from l0o to
10 between the inside and outside tenn
perature was the most satisfactory. 1t is
interesting to note that the same piping
used for the ammonia cooling service in
the summer is used for steam-heating
purposes in the winter. 1t happens that
pipelines reach any of the hospitals,
though the benefit of their use in such
institutions is apparent.
Figures are siven to show that this
service is less costly than the shipping of

DRESS.
French Art in Dress-They Learn What

french Art In Dress-They Learn What
to Wear and How to Do It.
L VIII venture to say that there is not a
single french woman who pays any at
tentlon to dress at all who has not a per-
fectly distinct idea of what she can wear
and what she cannot. She knows what
are her good points and what are her poor
ones, ana now to bring the good ones into
relief and skillfully conceal the others.
And even when sheis uncompromisingly
PLAIN, she audaciously makes the most of
her plalnneSS, and becomes what is called
belle laide. 1t was this kind of a
woman that Balzac had in mind when he
said that homeliness could he made as
great charm as beauty, if women only
knew how to use it.
Inc French woman understands color,
and knows whether to choose cold or
warm tones, as she is blonde or bru-
nette. And when she has found color
or combination that is becoming, she
never loses sight of it. We all remember
the most becoming dress l ever had in
my life." A French woman would ana
lyze that dress, ask herself WHY it was
becoming; was it the color, the soft, cling
ing material, because the lines suited her
hgure, or what? She would find out the
reason Tor Its success and reproduce the
same effect hundred times, modifying
the style to suit the prevailing fashion Of
Are her arms too long, she wears
sleeves that "cut them in two" Is her
waist too short, she never wears belt.
And above everything else she tries to
accent anything individual about herself
too give herself little of the magnet
ism OF personality" No one knows how
many deficiencies this may make up
for.
AS an illustration of this, | once saw
an artistic little French dressmaker take
an odd, ungainly looking girl, with no
ngure DOR color, and out of her very odd
ness create a charm. For material she
chose a sort of soft clinging stuff, a dull
green, but green with more blue than
yellow in it, the only kind brunettes can
wear. She fairly made the dress on. the
| girl, draping it skillfully to hide the
deficiencies of the figure, and softening
1t against the face with velvet of the same
shade as the gown. Then by subtle
touches of dull gold and Indian red in a
quaint passementerie, she seized and
heightened Southern Spanish note in
the girls appearance, and made one for
get the formleSs waist by scarf that went
round 1t, from which dangled rare,
OrIental-looking ornaments in the same
reds and COLDS. The girl suggested some
| sort OF barbaric princess, and had one of
the chief characteristics of beauty, the
being able to attract and fix attention.

The Denver and Rio Grande Announces
Another Cut.
CHICAGO, April 2S.-The Denver and
Rio Grande gave the Western passenger
rates another cut to-day, announcing
round-trip rates between Denver and
Chicago at $40, Denver and st. Louis $50,
and Denver to points on the Missouri
River west of st. Louis $50. This was
surprise to railroad men, as nothing has
yet been done by them to meet the cut
made by the Rio Grande few days ago.
The new reduction will be good over the
Rock Island and Burlington lines. 1t is
thought the Atchison will not be long in
coming back, and a hot fight will be in
augurated. The Atchison will take an
active part IN the Colorado fight to-mor-
row, making the rate from Denver to
Pueblo and all intermediate points 81.

ANNEXATION OF HAWAII.
The Sugar Industry and the Labor
Question Will be Affected.


Question Will be Affected.
An article on the annexation of Hawaii.
IN the current Engineering Magazine, by
L. Graham Gribble, a civil engineer who
long resided there, contains this reference
TO the labor question: The sugar industry
and the labor question as affected by an
nexation are points about which it is
difficult to make predictions. Twenty
to thirty years ago the infant sugar
plantations OF Hawaii were successfully
operated without any tavors, and with
the rudest kind of machinery. When
Judge Austin introduced huming cane at
Onomea plantation, about TWENTY-FIVE
years ago, they had been hauling it to
the mill with bullock or mule carts, bur-
led up TO the hubs in the soft soil, con-
tinually moistened by the heavy Hilo
rains. Their machinery was of the
toughest type, but they made living for
the simple reason that they paid only So
board per month for labor or So without
board. The native had his taro-patch,
which gave him all the food he wanted
for the year, and his clothing did not
trouble him much. Now labor costs
about 81 per day, and although they have
the finest possible machinery, some of
the plantations are not paying their way.
1t cannot be expected that the United
States will extend the beet-sugar bounty
law to cane-sugar in Hawaii, and the
islands must therefore reckon on con-
tinued competition with Cuba ON an even
basis and with American beet-sugar fos-
tered by bounty. The question will be
whether annexation will not enhance the
labor difficulty. There is at present a
large Chinese population in the islands.
This comprises the only imported labor
which cannot leak away to the United
States. Portuguese from Madeira, Japan
ese and others imported at great expense
tor plantation work all look upon the
islands as stepping-stone to America,
where they hope to get from 81 80 to 81
per day. Unless some special clause be
inserted in the annexation treaty, these
Cinnamon would also be free to come
over to San Francisco. At all events, the
effect of annexation would be to bring
the price OF labor in the islands to close
level with that of the United States.
Hawaii is adapted to Coolie labor. She

THEY MET AT THE COUNTER. II
The Society Belle and the Farmer Ex-
change Parcels,


change Parcels.
She is pretty society belle and he a
horny y-handed disciple of Cincinnatus.
They happened to meet before the same
counter and each had package within
the others reach. Not look or a word
passed between them, yet, the Detroit
Free Press says, the current of their lives
had touched. She went home, and this
occurred as she met her sister and two Wis
iting friends: "Oh, girlsl I have the
loveliest combination undersuit you ever
saw. 1t is too sweet for anything. l was
so fortunate, for there was just one left,
and no sooner saw it than it was mineD
DO let us see," came in chorus from
the others, and they gathered about her
with eager looks and bated breath. In
her hurry to show the new treasure she
broke the string and tumbled the con-
tents OF the parcel upon the table. The
girls screamed, roared, shouted, held
their sides and finally rolled on the floor.
while the society belle stood transtixed
as she held aloft pair of common 40-cent
overalls. Her lips were compressed, her
eyes flashed fire and to herself she vowed
terrible revenge upon clerk who was
as innocent as a child.
The farmer drove nome, and when the
good wife asked him what was in the
bundle he never took his eyes from the
paper he was reading, as he answered,
"Overalls." "Overalls," echoed his bet
ter halt, in shrek; ''overalls. Look at
them. Henry Humpert, who are these
things for? Whoever thought 1 would
ever live to see the like of this? 1 want
the whole truth, Henry, and Pll have it,
too. Mind that
''Jehosephatp' shouted the farmer, as
he let go in way that was simply scan
dalous for a good, moral citizen. Next
morning he was off to the city before the

deal of loud talk, and it was all straight
ened out when the farmer and the belle
had both spoken their pieces. They had
simply changed packages.
