 Rusin.f Night of the Year.

There is one night in every year, in
 every great newspaper office, when
 work is done that Is the least under
 stood of all that goes on in the making
 of a daily newspaper-one night when
 the highest state of fever attends the
 excitement and strain of the most in-
 tense work that falls to the lot of any
 men, except soldiers In war. That Is
 election night. That is the night when
 few men sit down at o'clock before
 virgin sheets of paper with the knowl-
 edge that before ? o'clock the next
 morning they must cover those sheets
 with the election returns of a nation.
 digesting mountains of figures and ap- prlsing the public of the results of the most condensed forms, weeks in ad- vance of the official announcements, as sparks might be counted while they fly from the shapeless iron on a black smiths anvil. And these calculations must stand the test of comparison with those which the rival newspapers. working without collaboration. as eager will publish at the same moment. The election returns come in driblets and atoms and must be put to- gether as the Florentines make their Some of 1t, we shall see, is plucked from the very air--as a magi- clan seems to collect coins in bor- rowed hat-begotten of reasoning, but put down beside the genuine returns with equal confidence and almost equal accuracy. An! but that Is work to try cool heads and strong nerves. I am quite certain no other men in the world
 include such g. night of tension and ex- ,itement, periodically, as a fixed part of a workaday existence. No other men, regularly, once year, feel them selves so truly in the focus of an in- .ense public interest, manifesting itself n so many ways.-From Election Night in Newspaper Office," by Julian Ralph, in the November Scribners.

A Cooking Episode.

A young woman was making her first essay at housekeeping. A friend had sent her by mail g. recipe for some new kind of bread, giving her directions to take a portion of the dough at a time and make it into the requisite form for. baking. This seemed explicit enough, but what was the surprise of the friend to receive a telegram from the young housekeeper to this ef- feet:
 What shall I do with the rest of the dough? Please answer" r."-Detroit Free Press

FAIHION NOTES.
Bonncts Small But Costly,


 To judge by the milliners' windows one would think that reception or the ater bonnet must be a lace and jewel casket It is all a woman can do to keep her head and realize that such elaborate affairs should be accompa- nied by a corresponding costume. The essentials for a theater hat, be 1t cost ly or not. are merely smallness. width and lightness, and the effect of the headdress must be attained with as little detail as possible. In hats to go with walking dresses there is a wide field to choose from, the large and showy sorts being in the ascendant, but some very dainty small ones are

-------------- 4 FRIEND OF THE PEOPLE,

What 8 savage and sweeping blow at the prosperity of the people of this congressional district that was when Congressman Pigott voted to tax their deposits in savings banks. With the interest in such banks already down to four per cent. and deposits limited, MT. Pigott would have made 1t still harder for them to get ahead. And he claims to be friend of the people. He goes around the district telling them how much he has done for them, and he ex- plains to them that if they can only hang on little while longer they will all be happy and prosperous. Vote for me, he says, and wear diamonds. This is cheering talk to those who don't know how they are going to get money to buy black diamonds to warm themselves with this winter and who do not dare to aspire to ever wear white ones. And those who have little money in a  savings bank drawing only four per cent. interest wonder when they hear MT Pigott talk how he was helping them to wear diamonds. or even Rhine stones, by advocating big tax on their savings. The truth is, MT. Pigott has not been a friend of the people of this district in his votes and talks in congress. He has been friend of the people or Canada, England, Russia, Brazil and Cuba, and had he gone to England with hls great leader MT. Will son he would doubtless have had the honor of being well received, as MT. Will son was. The English know their friends when they see them. and MT.

A Swiss apiarist says that bees should be kept by all farmers who have orchards. These insects are not only valuable for the store of honey they make but as fertilizers of fruit and increases the fruit crop. MT. Theiler has tested the usefulness of bees and their importance as workers upon fruit trees in various ways. He has screened from them one part of cherry and pear trees and left the other parts exposed to their visits. Three-quarters of the blossoms on the screened part of the tree wilted and dropped off, while the fruit set abund- antly upon the side upon which the bees worked. He has experimented with beans, peas squashes and vege- tables with the same result He says: "If in April and May the weather is cold and damp. accompanied by cold winds or snow, the bees will not leave their hives, and thus fail to accom- plish their task. The result will be, that while the trees or plants may all be covered with flowers, these fail of
