4 CONFIDiNTE.

The contidante's lot is not happy
one. She may think that it is when
she is listening to her friends thrill
ing tale before the mldnigh fire, but
she soon learns her mistake. When
people ask her questions, when she
burns with philanthropic desire to
pass on her good news or to share her
secret, then she feels the misery Of
her position. She aso finds it en-
barrassing when she is unable to re-
member in December what was con-
fded to her in June. and her friend
assumes that she recalls it perfectly.
She has to give just the advice which
is desired, but if following that adj
vice leads to unfortunate compiler
tons she must assume the blame. She
must be interested and sympathetic,
but never curious. She needs the
wisdom Of the sages and the tact of
the diploma 5, together with the Sc
cretive disposition of the SPHINX.
Even then she will probably make
mistake. Only one person is more to
be pitied than the confidante, and that
is the person who conides She goes
about the world forever afterward
convinced that her secrets are in the
possession OF one who will not guard
them properly.
Nevertheless, the custom OF conf
ding will continue as long as women
let down their hair and unbutton
their frocks to gether. There is some
thing about the act of brushing the
har which invites confidence on the
one hand and makes the outpourlng
Of ones soul necessity on..the other.
AS soon as two women take OFT their
street bodices and assume dressing
sacques, they are bound to be conf
Dental. They feel that there is moth
ing whichshould be concealed from the
person who has an opportunity to tell
whet her their seams are arr bound or
merely overcast, and whether their I'M
derwaists are trimmed with lace or
Hamburg edging.
There are many things for the wo-
man who holds confidential relations
with many people to remember. The
frs one is that it is seldom worth
while to make oneself disliked by CIV
ing advice or opinions which are con-
trarv to those desired. At the same
time she should bear in mind that she
will be held responsible Tor those
opinions and counsels till her dying
day. She must also resolutely decide
to keep silent about what was told her
in confidence until such time us she
learns that the confidential woman
has spread her secrets broadcast. 1t
is always likely that the contidlng
person will do this, and that some
other confidante will talk. Then
every one who knows the stories is re-
leased from the secrecy and can talk
to her hearts content
The contidante must be prepared to
hear the same story frequently, and
must display convenient torgetful-
ness if she observes that her friend is
in the mood for talking. On the 9TH
er hand, she must remember even
small details most accurately If the
contiding one seems to expect that.
The woman who does all these
things in such a manner that it salts
ties her friend will have her reward.
She will gain reputation as an adml-
rable confidante, and will then have
an opportunity to enlarge her knowl-
edge Of other peoples private affairs,
which is reward no woman will

.STR4.NGE SIGHT 1T SEA

The peculiar experience IF the crew
of the British tank steamship Rock
Light, Captain Collier, while en- route
from Rotterdam to Philadelphia, has
created interest among seafaring men,
and especially scientific navigators.
The Rock Light arrived off Marcus
Hook several DAYS ago, owing to the
heavy ice, returned to the Breakwater,
and reached there February 9th.
Captain Collier states that at 1l:45
o'clock on the night OF February l, IN
latitude II, longitude II, during the
prevalence Of a heavy hail sqall, a ball
of fire or meteor descended from the
heavens and, coming down obliquely,
with Kissing noise, struck the sea
abont three hundred and fifty yards to
the southwark Of the ship, causing a
tremendous report and sendinga heavy
shock through the ship, similar to a
proiectile passing for and aft. All
bands were aroused, as 1t was thought
that an explosion had occurred in one
Of the tanks, and Chief Officer Waters,
who was on watch, rushed below and
called Captain Collier. Then followed
vivid lightning and terrific hail and
snow squalls, during which on the
yardarms, mastheads, etc, could be
seen small lights, corposants, or will
o'-the-wisp.
This lasted almost necessarily until
five o'clock in the morning, and the
superstious sailors became terrified.
and thought they were doomed
Nothing of note then occurred from
the until February 10, the ship being
III latitude 80. A longitude G3.3o, when
a somewhat similar experience was met
with. At 80 o'clock that night
binding snow squalls of great force
were raging, and suddenly there APP
peared on the port foreyardarm IA
small light In the space of minute
it gradully increased in size, when it
burst with loud report. The wind
increased to hurricane, and continued
until one o'clock the following day.
This is the strangest experience that
any Of the officers Of the ship nave
have had during their life at sea, and
a full account of the VOYAGE mas already
been sent to the officials Of the United
State Navy at Washington. What
caused the greatest alarm on board
this ship was that she was filled with
gas arising from empty oil tanks.

The question of free textbooks
is being agitated in several states
at the present time and it is fitting
that Gov. Allin in his inaugural
address should advise the legisla-
ture of North Dakota to adopt
free and uniform textbooks.
Where such a system has had a
trial, it has been found to possess
several advantages. The teacher
finds it a great help. The books
are ready at the beginning of the
term and work can begin at once,
without waiting for Johnnie to get
a spelling-book, or Mary provide
herself with writing materials. A
second advantage derived from
free textbooks is, they last long,
er. At the close of the term, the
books are all accounted for to the
proper officer. Experience has
proved that, in view o f
this day of reckoning, pupils are
more careful of books than when
each provides his own; and all the
wear and tear at home in vacation
is saved. Books have been found
to last about five times as long
when common property as when
owned individually. It would not
cause added expense, but rather
prove economy, if under the new
system what now provides books
for a certain number of pupils one
year, would supply the same num-
Der for four or five years. The
governor touches upon another
point that is usually brought up
against the system-that some
would be unable to contribute to
the purchasing fund; but in his
opinion there would be no more
than are now supplied with books
by school officers. Uniformity in
books is an advantage to those
moving from one place to anoth-
er, saving expense and enabling
pupils to enter a new school in
about the same grade they heldin
the old. By all means let North
Dakota have free and uniform
textbooks, SO that her schools
may be free indeed.
