NELSON'S GRAVE.

In Brompton cemetery, London, is
the grave of Adelaide Nelson, the
once famous and beautiful actress.
The cemetery is distant perhaps three
or four miles from Trafalgar square.
A visitor writes of it,
1.-The grave occupies nearly the
whole of the small lot, and was. when
saw it, thickly covered with ivy and
flowers. The monument is a colossal
cross of rough-hewn marble, nat less
than six feet in height, including
pedestal. and twelve or fourteen inches
thick. In design and execution it is
sufficiently satisfactory; but the excess
sive size seems inappropriate for a
woman, and certainly spoils the effect

gen of our time might have been, for

Nelson was proud of the profession
which has so much cause to be proud
OF her. Why should the friend who
erected the monument have been
ashamed of that professionals this
epitaph would indicate that he was-so
Tar, at least, as her connection with il
was concerned?
The friend is understood to have
been the late Admiral Sir Henry Carr

not very large fortune was bequeathed

A Jersey COW was found tightly

less railroad building in the United

an average of 5000 miles of new track
were laid per year, but from 1890 to

miles. In the three years previous to
1899 the largest percentage of new
roads were built in the Southern States,
Since 1899, however, the advantage
has been held by the Northern States

WHAT TIME is 1T.

He drew out his watch and held it
up close to his ear and slowly turned
the stemwinder. 'One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven, eight" he
counted, and then he said; "Th6
means seyenty-two minutes. l wound
the watch up tightly at 8 o'clock, and
SO the time ought to be about twelve
minutes past four. Let's see how near
l came to it. Well, it's 4:1S-I was
only six minutes off. "
The other was regarding him with
amazement. "Do you mean to say
that you can tell the time of day by
winding up your watch?"
"Not exactly, but can come mighty
near it; usually within ten minutes,
and it's very simple, too. All you
have to know is how long one tick in
winding up will run the watch. I'll
explain to you. Suppose that at
O'Clock I wind up my watch until it is
tight, as we say; that is until another
turn of the winder would apparently
break spring. At o'clock I wind
the watch again, and find that the
winder clicks twelve times before the
watch is wound up to the place where
it sticks. Then you know that twelve
clicks will run the watch 1870 minutes
and that one click represents ten min.
utes of time"
What good is it to know that?'
We'll, suppose you 60 to bed at 1 l
O'Clock tonight, and on retiring wind
up your watch and put it under your
pillow. During the night you wake
up and wonder what time it is. You
don't want to get up and light the
gas. All you have to do is to pull tina,
watch out from the pillow, hold it tc
your ear and count the ticks as you
wind. If you count eighteen, then you
know that the watch has run down 1SC
minutes since II o'clock, and that the
time must be very near o'clock. Tc
be sure, you can't tell the exact time
but you can generally get within 6
quarter of an hour Of it."
Would the same rule hold good fol
clock or a watch which is wound
with key?"
II dare say it would. but ] never
tried it on anything except a stem

who always tells time by winding hi

he can wind up his watch three or fou

so often the case as in marriages of
Europeans and Americans. In few
cases foreign brides in Japan have gone
to live in japanese houses and in
japanese stlye. In fact they all insist
on doing this at first; afterward, more
from their husbands preference than
their own, they go back to their own
ways.
Mrs. Oki, a beautiful French girl,
who married Commander Oki, of the
japanese navy, still insists upon living
la Japanese. She is a center of at
traction at all court balls.
There is daintiness about japanese
home life that is very attractive to
women Of refined, artistic tastes, and
yet comparatively little is known of it
by outsiders. The home is very sacred
in Japan and no stranger or foreigner
is allowed to enter there. You may
go to their residences and visit certain
rooms, but you will never be permitted
to set foot in the inner sanctuary.
With the japanese woman her lord
stands first. He takes the precedence
of relatives and religion, and She

the humblest member of the household
A Jap takes mis- bride home to his
mother household and from the day
of his wedding she is the slave of his
mother, his sisters and himself, and of
her own children, too, when fshe has
them, until one of her own song fol-
lows the custom of his fathers by
bringing wife home for her to tyran-
nize over in turn. You see, it puts a
premium on growing old. Still, the
women are SO happy and lovable, so
gentle and contented, that one scarcely
wishes to see them emancipated.
Of course these relations of husband
and wife refer wholly to those who are
native born. When a foreign woman
marries japanese of the better class
her position in the household is vastly
different. She is recognized as the equal
and companion of her husband, and
her household is ordered very great
deal upon the European method adapted
to the japanese environment.
Some years ago there was sudden
rage for things European among the
women of Japan. The Empress, who
is evry charming person, without be-
ing extremely good looking, was seized
with desire to introduce European
fashions at the court of Toxic She
had large number of gowns, fans,
bonnets, gloves, and other treasures of
feminine apparel dear to fashionable
woman's heart made. In Paris No
In practical, prosaic Berlin. This was
very unfortunate, as the dresses, while
material and cost were all that could
be desired, totally lacked that unde.
Unable something called chic. style, or
whatever you please The Empress
struggled heroically in her resolution
to think the imported denominations
beautiful and becoming, and the ladies
of the court had, of course, to take
their cue from her. The result was
that former futtering bevy of bewicth
lngly arrayed japanese butterflies in
their eccentric but charmingly pictur-
esque garments were transformed into
demonstrating grotesque cocoons of
decidedly "Dutchy" type.-Philadel
