A Baby's Ihnuence.

A prettey story is told Of a baby's infiu-
ence over fallen women in a Russian jail.
The jailer was Col V. and he and his
wife had just arrived to take charge Of
a large prison in one Of the central prov
inces. The colonel was a terrible disci-
plinarian, but kind enough man in his
way. His wife was gentle little enthu-
siast, who had made up her mind TO re-
form al the women prisoners. This par
tlcular Jail had a very bad reputation, and
the women especially Were often in mu-
tiny. Col. V. got along famOusly with
the men, but the women were too much
for him, and he meditated flOgging and
all sorts of terrible measures
Once Nine. V. took a walk through the
prison yard when the women were eXer-
cising. Behind her walked a nurse, with
her baby. The prisoners, as soon as they
got sight of the baby. 1ocked around, and
Nine V. at first fearing violence, was re-
iieved to see that only babyolatrY was
the matter. First one and then another
Of the women begged to hold the child a
moment. Some laughed with joy, and
many shed tears.
Nine V. had a happy thought, and
she spoke ii out. THE best conducted
woman of you all at the end of the week
will be allowed 10 tend the baby for
half an hour" Never was a change so
instantaneOusly wrought. The women
became anlenable 10 every word Of the
warders and at the weeks end II was
with the utmost difficulty that Nine. V.
could decide, among SO many well-cOn-
Quoted prisoners, which had the best
claim to the promised reward. The
baby's visits were afterward frequent,
and the women's wards were completely
reformed

LIE GRANpE CHARTREUsE.
The Famous Cordial Made by the Car
thusian Monks In France.

Chartreuse, or lie Grande Chartreuse,
as ii is called 10 distinguish il from
other establishments of the Carthusian
order Of monks, says the New York
World, Is situated in a cuplike valley
4,26S feet above sea-level, amid a group
Of chalky mountains near Grenoble, in
France.
It was founded in 1854 but the first
convent was not built till fifty years
later. and most of the present edifice IS
but little over two hundred years in age.
The retreat OF the monks is extremely
difficult of access, and few visitors care to
climb up TO their eyrie. For centuries
the holy fathers were undisturbed, bat
the revolution was no respecter Of per-
sons or proprietary rights. In 1893 the
domain CharTeuse vas declared con-
fiscated to the state, and the monks
were sent into exile. France. however,
allowed them to return in 1916 TO the
monastery and to have he use Of their
buildings and right Of pasturage or pay
ment OF a nominal rent. but the splendid
forests, chiefly the results Of the care
ful selection ana cultivation Of their pre-
decessors, were not restored 10 the
brethren.
At their laboratories. near which they
also have a saw-mill. some forges. and
a fine dairy farm, the monks manufac-
ture various pharmaceutical preparations
that have a large sale in France. though
but little known in this ,ountry-fOr in
stance an elixir vitae ana IillIl-li4
salVe, called BOule d'Acier, besides. or
course, a vast quantity Of the rich resin
Gus cordial which bears their honored
name.
The monks are famous far and near
for their active benevolence The sales
Of their cordial go TO the establishment
Of churches, schools and hospitals in
the neighbOring villages. so th2t any
one who drinks tasse of Chartreuse may
Justly feel that he is helping indirectly
in constant work Of philantrOphy and
human brotherhood. Their elixir IS con-
sidered a valuable antidote to fevers, and
during the passage of the Asiatic cholera
over France il was extremely valuable
In checking the ravages of the dread dis
ease.
The chemical composition Of all the
things made by these monks has been
kept a profound secret, but il is known
that into the manufacture Of their deli
cate liquors, carnations, absinthium and
the young buds Of the pine tree enter
largely. The nearest railway station
TO the monastry Is Voiron. a pretty little
town of $1,000 inhabitants on the Lyons
and Grenoble line Here the monks have

The use ofsthe bicycle by girls and
women. says DR.. f.. J. Sem Of Chicago
will be a great factor in keeping Ameri-
can womanhood from physical degener-
alton. Bicycle riding combines both
pleasure and exercise, and the female
sex is not naturally inclined TO indulge
in exercise without a corresponding
amount of pleasure hence the success of
the bicycle a health producer. AS a
general rule, the bicycle is most used
by the class OF people who need Il
least-that Is, the middle class Of the
female sex. who usually have ample eX-
ercise without bicycle riding. IL is the
wealthy woman, surrounded by luXuries,
who should give up her victoria and sub
stitute the wheel at least for an hour or
two each day, and then we would more
nearly approach the ideal Greek woman
of old than the weakling of today.

Now, if a corset is laced every time it

OLD FOOTPRINTS IN TEXAS.
The Trail OF Prehistoric Animals
Found In the Rocks.

In the PalO Duro canyon. lying north Of
here. the hacking away Of large piece
OF -alluvisl earth has recently revealed
a singular trace Of prehistoric life. II
consists of the unmistable trail Of some
large animal going over the rocks fol
lowed by another. probably Of the human
kind. but at any rate of gigantic speci-
men of the ape. That il is the former is
more likely, the monkey tribe, except
I'm The smallest families, IS not 10 be
found on this continent or in South
America The first animal. Judging from
the marks il left in the then impression
able rock was of the reptile family, for its
tail, soft underneath, though weighed
with scales sufficiently to make it heavy
enough TO drag an inch and half deep,
left a broad. smooth trench, while the
claws by which IL assisted itself were Of
the true alligator type, webOed between.
These claws were nearly flve Inches long
and were evidently intended 10 aid the
creature in climbing on land. as its
WebDed membrane served IL for swimming
in water.
But more curious are the marks Of the
animal which pursued it. These are Of
two hands. nearly three times the size
of the ordinary mans hand, and those OF
two active feet. both hands and feet pos
seSsing five members, though all Of equal
length except the thumb. This, while
shorter is vet longer in proportion by
day 1t was also Of unusual strength,
sinking much deeper than the rest Of the
hand into whatever X seized upon. The
nails are curved and very powerful. those
of the feet being particularly so, grasping
the rock firmly.
Another singular thing in connection
with the remains IS the position of the
marks. They are carved in a rock stand
ing nearly perpendicular TO the bed Of the
ancient river, 900 feet below, and which
must once have been as wide as the Mis-
sissippi. and Of a current sufficiently
strong 10 have cut its way through these
granite rocks. This position Of the re-
mains would indicate that the reptile.
swarming up from the stream, was pur-
sued by the other animal and probably
killed on land. This part Of the country
is pronounced by geolOgists to be among
the most ancient formations of the con-
tinent.
The rock on which these marks are to
be found are about one hundred and fifty
feet below the surface Of the earth and is
only to be reached by one swinging over
the side OF the precipice. They were dis
covered by an amateur geologist of this
locality. who, noting the fall Of the SOIL
went down I'm the hopes Of adding % the
rich antedluvan spoils this singular
chasm has yielded. Plaster casts have

The marks are plainly visible from a

the canyon. and from here have been

such matters-Texas Letter to Philadel-
