Women as Judges.

1t is perhaps out of order for a woman
to condemn her own sex, but it is none
the less true when a feminine voice de
Clares that women as judges are not just
and that when they are called upon to
analyze the frailties of their own sex they
never take into consideration all the heart
ache and the pain, all the struggle and the
weariness that prompt the actions that
they cannot understand and therefore can
not rightly interpret The martyrs of olden
times were as nothing compared with the
women of today who go about with smil-
ing faces, while underneath that calm ex-
terror lies q tragedy that the world will
never know and which frequently impels
them to actions that in the light of cen

positively immoral
What right have any Of us to judge of
the superficial character of any one with
whom we come in contact? We know our
selves that we carry about with us a dou-
BILE nature What we are to one person
we are not to another The life that we
show in one place is quite distinct from
the one which brightens and illumines an
entirely different residence Which one,
then, is realf By which are we judged?
And can d safe estimate be given of any

The stork.

In Holland some bad boys presumed
upon the absence of the stork from her
nest to substitute hen eggs for her own.
The mother never suspected the trick and
conscientiously Matched out her false pro.
geniture. But when the little pullets made
their appearance father and mother were
in CONSERVATION. They screamed in turn,
tapped their wings, turned around their
nest in great excitement then together
pounced upon the fraudulent children and
massacred them without pity.
A similar story comes from a greater
distance. At Smyrna French surgeon,
wishing to procure storks' eggs for some
purpose, abstracted them from a nest in
the vicinity and replaced them with hens
eggs, as in the preceding case. The moth
er faithfully Matched them out, but at the
critical moment there was a conjugal
scene, and the husband left home only to
return very soon with large number of
his brethren A court was constituted
and circle formed around the wife ao-
Oused of adultery. The husband exposed
his complaint, and the poor innocent, CON
demned to death, was Immediately hacked
80 pieces. phe nest remained deserted.

A MONS TER PLOW.
The Farmer Who Made It Overlooked
Some Mechanical Principles.

some mechanical Principles.
Few people are aware of the fact that
what is very likely the largest single share
plow I'm the world was made in California
and is at present on one of the ranches OF
the Kern County Land company, near
Bakersfield 1t is not in use, however, but
is simply kept as a curiosity in little
yard all by itself.
1t is over 10 years since the idea of the
plow was conceived by J. Thompson, a
ranch foreman He was tired of preparing
5000 acre wheattield for crops with
the ordinary nine or twelve inch plows
worked by two horses then in use. He
made his calculations very carefully, but
not being mathematician made a great
mistake
He figured that If two horses could pull
a 12 inch plow six horses could pull 86
inch one, and that eight horses could pull
a 48 inch one 1t seemed natural enough
to figure that way when in fact he should
have "cubed" the capacity Of his 12 inch
plow every time he doubled the width of
it. A 12 inch plow, when 1t is pulled the
distance equal to it's width, displaoes one
cubic foot of soil, and 86 inch plow will
displace 81 cubic feet instead of 3, as Mr.
Thompson figured.
After all the calculations and drawings
were made blacksmith came out from
| Bakersfield, and in due time the monster
| plow was ready to go to work in the field.
| The share was made to cut 30 inch fur
row, and the top of it reached about five
feet from the ground. The beam was over
foot thick, and the handles were 10 feet
! long, but of course did not slope at the
same angle as in the ordinary plows To
enable the plow to be turned around east
| ly it was suspended between two 8 foot
wheels, on the axle of which was a seat
for the driver. 1t made huge ugly con-
| trivance that looked like a nightmare.
When the plow was taken to the field,
ten horses were fastened to 1t. The han
dies were raised and the horses started,
but as soon as the share was about half
way into the ground they stopped. More
horses were brought out and sunk it lit
tie deeper, but not until 90 had been
hitched to the plow did it move through
the soil at any sort of speed. At best it
moved slowly, and it took four men to
hold the handles and make it stay in the
| furrow.
Horses were cheap in Kern county at
that time, and feed cost nothing, so the
plow was little saving after the men had
learned how to handle it so it did not cut
more than is or 20 inches deep. The next
| season it was tried with oxen, and it took
75 of them to do the work. On the whole,
the plow was not success, and after be-
ing tinkered at for few years was finally
discarded and at last given place in the
stable yard, where it could be preserved
as a curiosity. San Francisco Call.

DISCARDED SILK HATS.
A New Lease Of Life For Them Even
Though Out of Style.

What Is the doom of the discarded silk
hat which is dimpled and framed after
the fashion of a year ago and Is therefore
an offonse In the sight Of the fastidious
owner? 1t may go any one of several
ways. 1t may be groomed and ironed

ence in humble sphere. 1t may sink so
low as TO decorate a soarecrow, or 1t may
find a last refuge and master in the per
son Of a member of the Coxeyite battalion.
The average life of a silk hat is about a
year, so at least estimated a venerable re-
pairer and cleaner In nine cases out of
ten when a man orders a new tile he
leaves tho old one with the dealer, roceiv-
ing 90 cent rebate on the same, be its
condition good, bad or Indifferent The
dealer accepts the old hat merely to &C
COmmodate the customer and not because
he wants it, He generally sells it again
at a uniform price of 80 cents to one of
the professional hat ironers and revivers
The hat is then given a special inspec.
/ ton Its teeth are examined so to speak
If it is in tolerably good condition. it is
given an ironing and sold for 81 to a
coachman or hack driver. These men are
best customers and will pay 81 or so for
a decent hat, no matter if it's style is that
of the year before last.
But more often the hat is too far gone
for this purpose. If the silk is not toe
much worn, it is used in the making OF
children's hats those Of the shape of q
truncated cone. The top is new silk. II
also goes into the chHpeaux worn by uni
formed organizations like the Knights Of
Pythias and Patriarchs Militant The
old silk is often used to line the ohapeau
where it is folded in and will last 80 year:
after previously doing duty on a fashiona
BILE chimney pot.
AS last resource the poor old hat is
sold to make sport in a procession of an
tiques and horribles. After that the

THOSE DREADED DRAFTS.
How They Are Caused and Avoided In
Window Tight Rooms.

Window Tight Rooms.
Several years ago in the fall of the year
was sick for weeks, and when at last l
was able to sit up 1 sat in my sitting
room, which faced the northwest, during
the daytime, and wishing to see the pass
ing had my place near large window.
The room had an open CRATE, also furnace
heat, and the thermometer easily register
ed 20 to 10 degrees, but with all this
warmth there WAS draft, as 1 thought, on
on my head and neck
Every one said the cold air oame In at
the window sash. I sent for the weather
strip man, and Of course he discovered, or
thought he did, the cause and put ON his
rubber molding 30 that the sash when
closed was tight.
Now" he says, "you will have no
more trouble in that direction"
The next cold snap the same old gale of
wind appeared. When my doctor came in,
spoke to him In regard to It, when he
Informed me that 1t was not the cold air
from outside that 1 felt, but the warm air
of the room, which went to the top of the
window, struck the cold glass, cooled and
then fell down" as the cold air would
had not the casing been alright. He then
said Drop your curtain about one-third
and keep it there"
did as he directed, and the gale stop
ped, and 1 had no trouble after that He
| told me that the same trouble existed in
most houses, even those that were well
| heated in the halls and bedrooms, the heat
! going to the top, cooling and falling back,
SO that one coming from warm room
| down stairs and going up would often
think that there must be windows open
above. or course double windows would
remedy this cooling off process in the
rooms, but with the curtains down little
they prevent the instant cooling of the
warm air, and there is your draft
You will notice that these drafts
are about during the day more than al
night and always less in the room where
there is a lamp. Why? Simply when yoU
light your lamps or the gas you draw
down the shades, and the heat does moi
