The Bright Side of Sheep Husbandry.

. Frederick Chambers, one of the. most
progressive Of Eastern sheep men, clailns
that although wool has dropped from 10
cents to less than Is cents per pound
sheep: INCLUDING mutton and manure)
have paid better than any other branch
of agriculture except the dairy. Even at
present prices wool pays better than
wheat, and the decline in prices of what
the wool-grower has to buy is as great
or greater than the drop in wool values.
He believes that dairying is likely to be
soverdone, that the rush to quit sheep
husbandry is a mistake, and that we
shall never attain a full degree of agri-
cultural success until the waste places
are made glad with sheep. las with
other products. Il low price has come to
stay. but faith in the sheep business
should not Waver."

Old Japanese TimenIeces.

Both Japan and China have long since
we'll earned the sobriquet of tho Lands Of
Opposltes, and they arc just as "oppo-
site" In the matter Of timepieces as any
thing else. The japanese have two styles
of clocks-tho so called "long clock, !"
with hands fastened TO a slide regulated
by a descending weight which marks time
on long, narrow. upright dial, and the
Ground clock, with stationary hands and
movable dial. In case of tho long clock"
It Is necessary TO "sot" IL according 70 the
varying lengths of the days, and for this
purpose six dials are furnished with each
clock. These are longthoned or shortened
according TO ths time OF year, and some
are made SO that the pointer or hand slide,
which moves downward during the day,
starts upon an upward trip as soon as the
sun sets. All Of the round clocks are pro.
vided with "A spring attachment, which
only needs 10 be touched at sunset in order
60 make tho dial run backward during The
hours of IT," ~'-Nf ST Louis Republic

Henry Irving Kissed.

Can any one imagine a more incredible
thing than Mr.. Irving being hisssed' Yet
this once happened and went on for a
whole week. The story is told in Mr.. Irv-
ing's own words.

actor, Il accepted stock engagement at
provincial theater and did not know
until 1 got there that / had been put into
the place of an actor who was locally very
popular. He had not left, believe, on al
together good terms with the manage
ment, so the audience vented their spleen
upon his successor j was that unfortu-
nate person. and for whole week or more
i was Kissed every night, not for my bad
acting, but out OF love for my predecessor.

was billed to appear at a Damrosch concert
IN that city and was on the stage dressed
and ready TO go on when the memorable
strike of the young conductors orchestra
occurred.
Miss Yaw couple of years ago was only
known to possess a voice with "a phenome-
nal range, but it was question whether
it was such one as would please the gen
eral public. The experiment has been made
and has resulted ia manner which should
be highly satisfactory To Miss Yaw, for
pccuniarily and artistically she has per-
haps met with greater success than any
concert singer that this country has pro-
duced during tho last 90 years.
AS an illustration Of the range of Miss
Yaw's voice an old story may proftably be
retold.
Mozart once wrote of Mile. Ajugari,
"She has lovely voice, a flexible throat
and an incredibly high range"
Ajugari's highest note was G In altis-
simo, but Miss Yaw reaches + above that
with ease and purity, while her lower
range--G below the treble clef-is many
notes below that of the artist of whom Mo-
zart wrote Miss Yaw's wonderful voice
was first heard in Los Angeles by some
one who knew its prospective value. .
But it is not by her voice alone that
Miss Yaw attracts. She Is free from af-
fectations, SO sincere, yet at the same
time confident in herself, that her mien
adds much to personality that is natu-
rally winning. She has been told by friends
that she is wonder. Great teachers have
not discouraged this estimate, great sing
ers have listened TO her and praised, yet
with it all her head has not been turned.
Old friends, whose pleasure it has been TO
hear her since degree of renown has been
won, say that she Is the same girl who left
Los Angeles in the hope that under the
tuition OF masters her voice might one day
make her known. Ii has done this, and
the promise now is greater than then the
hope had been.

THE FoLueS OF FASHION.
Men rs Reckless as Women In the Matter
of Healthful Clothing.


Leaving out of the question for the pres
ent the costume of women, we may call
attention to that of man. At tho present
time il Is the fashion TO leave the chest
more exposed than any other part of the
body. In the front the waistcoat is open
over the lower part Of the throat and in
place Of being made Of uniform thickness
at the back there Is only mere lining.
But the exposure is much worse when
man assumes evening dress. During the
daytime when man is going about In
the open air on his business or pleasure he
wears thick wooen clothes, with stout
boots and warm socks or stockings. At
night he puts on very thin clothes, vest
which is positively no protection what
ever, very thin shoes, possibly silk stock
ings, relinquishes his CATERS and goes out
In the open air without the possibility OF
efficient protection on his way to a con-
cert, a theater or dinner party, and then,
as our contemporary The Lancet says,
copgratulates himself that he is not as
those silly women who go about with the
upper part of their chests bare
Speaking with medical authority, The
Lancet adds:
'We are certain, however, that men
catch cold from wearing evening dress far
more than women do. and it behooves all
who go out in tho evening 60 keep the legs
and feet warm as well as the upper part Of
the body and TO wear an extra vest 90 make
up for the practical disappearance of the
waistcoat"
There is no denying tho absolute truth
Of these very sensible remarks. The fol-
lies of fashion are not confined to women,
and consequently both sexes have TO pay
the penalty for indulging in them. Lon

FINANCIAL GOSSIP.

Stock exchanges in the old world and
new are closed today and although those
in London and Liverpool will remain
closed for several days, Americans are salts
fed with one holiday. The banks and
the banking departments of the brokers'
Offices are open, however, to take care OF
any checks that may come in.
About the only thing left to discuss
today is the local market ana from all ac-
counts that is not especially noticeable.
The stock sheets show that
the sales of local securities have been very
meagre for several weeks, two, three and
four fairly heavy transactions week only
being noticeable.
The brokers state that the market Is
broadening and there is a good demand
for good investments, the Industrial stoc ks
especially becoming active, although the
banks are quiet. The business over the
counter is better than that on the street.

The clearings of the Providence banks
today amounted TO S992, 100.
