Vaccination.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Kindly permit me, through the columns of
your widely circulated paper to remind the
public at this time, when so many people
are being vaccinated, of the highly i'm
portant measure Of wearing V-shaped
piece of cloth sewed onto the dress, coat
or other outer garment directly over the
vaccinated spot. The arms of the should
be at least one-half inch wide and three
inches long. 1t should be cut from material
Of a color contrasting markedly with that
of the garment, and preferably red or yell
low. This V should be worn from the
fourth to the fourteenth day after vaccina-
tion since it's object is to warn those around
us against striking or grasping the arm and
thus injurlng the vaccine vesicle or pustule
during the period of development and des-
ication. 1t is of special importance that
children wear this badge and thus remind
their playmates and schoolmates to be less
rough and more careful in their games and
81 lettings for a few days. If the vesicle or
pustule be violently ruptured the condition
of the arm may be much aggravated and
the physician be unable to determine with
certainty whether the vaccina ton Is sue
cessful and protective against the smallpox.

Luther'a wife.

Believing that "a good wife is of the
Lord, Martin Luther chose good wom-
an-Catherine de Bora lady Of noble
birth, a nun, and, if we may credit Hol-
bein's portrait, very pretty woman.
Better still, she was faithful and af-
fectionate wife, though her temper was
not the sweetest and her tongue at times
could scold. Luther loved her dearly.
With him indeed reverence for woman
was at once natural instinct and a
point Of doctrine. He observed that
when the first woman was brought to
the first man to receive her name
he called her not wife, but mother
"Eve the mother of all living
word, he says, more eloquent than ever
fell from the lips Of Demosthenes. So
when Catherine frowned he smiled, when
she scolded he bantered. With the gen.
TEST soothing he chided her anxieties,
and with the most self denying devotion
he sought to make her life happy. And
a happier home, it is said, than the
home Of Luther was not in that land of
domestic tenderness. In one of his let
tiers to his wife he says: '"The greatest
favor of God is to have good and pious
husband, to whom you can intrust your
all-your person and even your life
whose children and yours are the same.
Catherine, you have a pious husband,
who loves you. You are an empress.
he says another: 4 im Il wer r sT going :;
to make love again, would carve an
obedient woman out Of marble in de-
spair of finding one in any other way. :"
He addresses her sometimes as MY
Love Catherine" Catherine the
Queen" the Empress, the DOC
tress," or as Catherine, the rich and
noble lady Of Zeilsdorf,'' where they
had cottage and a few roods of ground.

The custom of sending one on boot
less GRAND or otherwise "April fooling"
him ON the first day of April is very an
Gent. Yet it cannot truthfully be said
that any one is equal to the task of trac-
ing it to its origin. Some antiquarians
profess to believe it survival of the
travesty Of sending the Saviour hither
and thither, first from Annas to Gaia
phas and then to Plate and Herod. This
opinion is strengthened by the fact that
during the middle ages that very scene
in Christ's life was made the subject of
one of the Easter Miracle Plays enact
ed on the chief streets of London and
other English cities of the first class
Even though the above opinion has re-
ceived the sanction of Brande, Moore
and Hone, it is not at all unlikely that
it is really a relic of some old heather
festival, such as the Hull festival of the
Hindoos or the Roman feast of fools. -
The custom, whatever it's origin, of
playing tricks and pranks of all kinds
on the first day Of this month is univer-
sal throughout Europe and is also prac-
ticed in many other countries and I'M
der various names. 1t is curious fact
that the Hindoo Hull festival, where
April fool tricks Of all sorts are played,
Is held on the night of the 31st of March,
and the orgies are not discontinued I'M
til sunrise on the morning Of April L.

Hardy Climbing Roses.

In the prairie rose we have a class of
hardy native climbing roses often found
growing Wild In Michigan and the west
ern states, which we may plant with
confidence. Two of the more commonly
known roses of this class which are ia
vorites everywhere on account of their
hardness, free blooming, and the fact of
their flowers appearing just after the
other varieties are nearly over, are Queen
of the Prairie and Baltimore Belle, vari-
cites raised in the year 1843 by a rose
grower named Feast, in Baltimore, from
seeds of the wild prairie rose crossed
with some European variety. These two,
the former red and the latter white,
when grown near each other on the same
porch or with INTERVIEWING branches,
heighten each others beauty by con-
trast Both are Of rapid growth and
may be employed to advantage for COW
oring any unsightly objects as walls, old
trees, old buildings, etc Among the
most desirable roses Of the prairie class
we have Annie Maria, vigorous, pale
pink, very few thorns; Baltimore Belle,
pale blush, changing to white; Gem Of
the Prairie, free, believed to be from
Queen of the Prairies crossed with Mime.
Laffay, rosy red, occasionally blotched
with white laroe fiat flowers slightly
fragrant; Queen OF the Prairles, vigor-
GUS, rosy red, frequently with a white
stripe, medium or large size, double, TO-
iage large, five leaflets, quite serrated;
Triumphant, vigorous, rosy pink, me-
dunn size, double or full, distinct, seven
leaflets arecommon Cleveland Leader.

Wales Rsisctess For Insurance.

The Prince Of Wales was very heavi-
ly insured at one time, his motive in
securing the insurance being, it was
stated, to protect the money lender Far
quhar, with whom he was implicated
before the Duke Of Fife cleared up the
princes obligations by marrying into
the royal family. Just how much insur-
ance the prince carried at that time is
not known, but it is certain that he got
as much as the British companies would
give him and then applied to one of the
companies in this city. Being person
of high estate, he refused, however, to
permit the conpany's medical exainin-
er to inspect his royal person, proffering
instead certificate from his personal
physician, which certificate the compa-
ny refused to accept, and SO the insur-
ance was never effected. Exchange

Proof That sparrows Can Count.

There is no doubt but that birds can
count, and an incident witnessed sew
eral years ago illustrating this fact
amused me not little. A sparrow, with
four of her young, had a nest in a spar
row house under the veranda of my
dwelling. One day the old bird flew up
to the nest with four living worms in
her beak. The four little birds reached
out their heads with the customary
noise and were each fed a worm. The
sparrow then flew away, and after time
returned again with four worms in her
beaE, which were disposed of as before.
The bird kept this up for some time,
during which l was AN interested spec

TIE MASTER PASSION.
Alleged to BE the Mania For Getting Free
Passes Fer the Play.

1T was once present." said Charles
Dickens, fat social discussion which
originated by chance. The subject was,
What was the most absorbing and long
est lived passion in the human breast?
What was the passion so powerful that
it would almost induce the generous to
be mean, the careless to be cautious, the
guileless to be deeply designing and the
dove to emulate the serpent? A daily
editor of vast experience and great
acuteness, who was one of the company,
considerably surprised us by saying,
with the greatest confidence, that the
passion in question was the passion OF
getting orders for the play. There had
recently been terrible shipwreck, and
very few of the surviving sailors had
escaped in an open boat
zone of these on making land came
straight to London and straight to the
newspaper Office with his story of how
he had seen the ship go down before
his eyes. That young man had witness
ed the most terrible contention between
the powers Of fire and water for the de-
struction Of that ship and Of every one
on board. He had rowed away among
the floating dying and the sinking dead
He had hoated by day, and he had fro
zen by night, with no shelter and no
food, and as he told his dismal tale he
rolled his haggard eyes about the room
"When he had finished and the tale
had been noted down from his lips, he
was cheered and refreshed and soothed
and asked if anything could be done
for him. Even within him that master
passion was so strong that he immedi-
ately replied that he should like an Or
der for the play. My friend, the editor,
certainly thought that was rather a
strong case, but he said that during his
many years of experience he had wit
messed an incurable amount Of self pros
tration and abasement having no other
object and that almost invariably on the
part Of people who could well afford to
pay. Exchange.
