HEARD THE PRESSES ROAR.

a large audience listened with rapt
attention last night to the hum and
clatt"r of The World's' giant presses.
1t was not in the press-room OF "The

leading thereto that this audience was
entertained with the music OF the great
news machines, but at Proctor's The

Edward Clarence. who for the last
-FOUR years has been connected with the
Edlson company, reproduced on the
stage with the aid of a powerful phono-
graph the noise of the press-room. heard
during the printing OF "The Evening

II was the first time such a novel idea
was sprung upon the public, and when
the monograph Itself announced that IL
would reproduce the noise of THE

ed loudly. And when 1t ended with a
cheer for THE Word" by the boys OF
the press-room the applause Of the au-
dience was long and hearty.
Manager Proctor conceived the idea
which made such a hit at his theatre

The old idea of attributing special
morality to early rising is a bygone, out
maxim.
Early to bed and early to rise,
Makes a man healthy and wealthy and wise,
ia a rhyme which has had Its day. A
medical man once discovered
with much statistical search-that he
never found a case of extreme longevity
unaccompanied by the habit OF early
rising. from which one might infer that
they who rise late die early. But this
would fail to take into account one we'll

people are early risers because they can

Arranged in logical sequence, the con
clusion is that they do not sleep late De

human beings to regulate their move

Simple Diet.

A woman who writes for newspapers
said the other day, in the course of a
discussion on modern cookery: Il nave a
family Of three growing boys as well as
a hungry husband to cater for. and my
experience has been that / can do ii
most enectually on the simplest diet. l

that which Is poorly prepared; l mean a
good deal of steaks and chops, with we'll

is called a fancy cook but l have come
to the conclusion that my family thrives

It Is a well known fact that boy ba-
bies are much harder to raise than girls.
After the age OF curls and skirts they
grow like weeds, but prior to that, day
and night service Is required of the
nurse. One of the many projections for
giving Mr.. Baby the air. in all sorts Of
weather, Is the Shetland wool veil that
is pulled over the little face by means
of draw-strings. and fits like a baseball
mask. They are woven in various pat
terms, and cost from 10 to 80 cents. SILK
wells cost twice as much. Thousands
are bought every season, but for all
that hundreds of the delicate little crea-
lures die every week in New York from
diseases of the throat.

A Question for Women.

To tie Editor:
by reading the opinions Of your readers In re-
gard to taxing single men, | am reminded Of the
question that was being so freely discussed a
short time ago in reference to a young man
marrying on s. a week. | believe that the argu-
ment now under discussion presents a very good
idea OF one OF the results accruing from early
and hasty marriages. | hold that s. is not suf-
fcient to support a nan and wife comfortably;
therefore when children arrive the FIRST question
which arises in The minds OF the father and
mother IL, however are we going to live with
another mouth to feed?' Most likely an Id
will very soon appear in the personal column Of
one Of the daily papers offering a healthy new
born baby for adoption. II this is not done. and
the children are kept home, they are half starved
and half dressed until 1t becomes an utter impos.
sibility to support them any longer: then they are
either put In an asylum or their parents are
seeking aid from some more fortunate individual
o. trying to impose a tax on those who used a
little more discretion than themselves.

THE DRAK Z

To the Editor:
Some few years ago. while visiting the public
library at Colombo. Ceylon. among a good many
"curiOsities OF literature I found a volume Of q
little weekly comic paper called the Delhi Punch.
1t was published at Delhi In the early sos,
when John Company bossed things and the great
Sepoy mutiny was undreamed Of. The Jokes
were awful, but the illustrations caricaturins the
Enslish griffin and the hopeless inanity Of the
native servant, who, as an instance. on being
demonstrated with for straining the soup through
his masters socks, FASTENED to explain that they
were only dirty ones. we're well drawn and very
funny. But on turning the leaves I came across
a piece Of rhyme with a refrain that sounded
strangely familiar. and ran thus:
But II. E..
THE Governor. he
Don't think the petitioners worth a rupee"
II. E.. Of course. stands for His Exceliency.
Can II be possible that James Russell Lowell had
ever seen the Delhi Punch Or was his we'll
known poem written early enough to be ~parodied
by the periodical in question? Who can answer
this? TUTICORIN.

LANSING. Mich, Feb. 6.-Another sus-
