THE ENFANT TERRIBLE.
Paralyzed Edlth's Young Man and Made
Mamma Wish She Were Dead.

There is one young matron living on
the South side who failed to enjoy her
Thanksgiving turkey, though she add.
ed to it the cranberry of commerce and
the toothsome pumpkin pie and invited
her friends to share it with her. 1t
happens that she is the mother of a
small girl whose angelic appearance is
constantly remarked, and who is in
vhriably borrowed by an artist friend
when he Is commissioned to paint
cherub.
Handsome is, however, as handsome
behaves itself, and those who know
Miss Ethel best admire her least.
The guests had all assembled and
the hostess serene in the quality of the
soup and Ethcls promise OF good be-
hayior was all smiles.
Ethel had wedged herself between
her young aunt and q potential nd
mirer on the sofa.
"Well, Miss Ethel" said the uncon.
scious youth, smiling at her over his
chrysanthemum, ''are you glad to see
me?''
80, yes, Mr.. De Lay" was the smil-
ing reply, I'm glad mamma asked you;
she said she hated to do it, for you
were SO fussy that she would be in
agony lest anything would go wrong,
but she thought that maybe when you
saw how happy and comfortable she
and papa were YOU might ask Aunt
Edith-why, Aunt Edith, what is the
matter?'
In the awful pause which followed
dinner was announced. BY the time
that dessert was brought on the hostess
was sufficiently composed to say to her
right-hand neighbor:
''Only think, forgot that to-day was
legal holiday and all my best silver
is in the safety vault and l couldn't
get it out"
Then above the murmur of SYM
pathy rose q sweet, childish voice, say
ing:
.But, mamma, don't you remember?
You said that after all 1t was good
thing, for now you could borrow
grandma's service and those horrid Sill
vertons would think that if that was
only your second best the other must
be very handsome indeed"
And then with one accord the guests
began to speak concerning the wealth.

IN THE ELECTRICAL WORLD.

The Pacific cable, upon which Eng.
lish contractors are now estimating,
at the Invitation of the Canadian gov
ernment, is to connect Vancouver with
the British possessions in Australia.
The cost of the cable, it is thought,
will not be over $10,OOO,OO
"A Mexican professor of physics
proposes to foretell earthquakes by
connecting telephones to the pipes OF
deep artesian wells, and to metal plates
sunk deep in mountain crevices. Any
unusual noise in the bowels of TIC
earth would be audible in the tele-
phone, and would indicate trouble.
1T is related that in 1891, a young
electrician, now in Paris, on looking
through Carnegie's great steel rail
plant at Braddock, Pa, casually sug-
gestcd that electricity could be made
to operate the widely separated pieces
of machinery at saving of many thou
sands year. A week or two ago AM
drew Carnegie visited the plant for the
first time in two years, and saw cleo
tricity doing the work. This improve
ment, together with others, it is said,
makes it possible for eight men to do
the work 800 did in 1891.
"A handy little device has been
brought out for preventing the waste
of current that often goes on in tho
electric lighting of hotels and large
buildings In hotel bedroom, cel-
lars and other places where persons
are constantly passing in and out and
requiring light for only short periods
it not infrequently happens that the
light is switched on and left burning,
sometimes for many hours, to no pur-
pose. The apparatus which makes such
waste impossible is small piece Of
clockwork, by means of which an in-
candescent lamp is automatically
switched off in half an hour, an hour,
or any prearranged time. It Gun bo
included in any ordinary circuit in.
stead of the switch, and at very mod
crate cost.
"A miniature electric yacht has
is 26 inches in length and 61a inches
beam, and is guaranteed to beat any
other boat of it's size. It is driven by
tiny motor and one cell of special
boat battery. The motor is suspended
on bracket and geared direct with
the propeller shaft Motor, gearing
and battery can all be taken out and
replaced within minute. The bat-
terry gives enough current to propel tho
boat between one and two hours. It
gives no trouble whatever, as from its
construction there can be no tipping
over of acid and no breaking of glass
jars. The boat travels at the rate Of
about three miles an hour. The pro-
pellor is IN inches in diameter, and
has two blades set at As degree pitch.
The whole appearance Of the tiny craft
is trim and workmanlike-in fact, it
has been designed and built under tho
direct supervision of United States
naval engineer. 1t is claimed that as
an easy running boat it can not be
equalled, and for boys, beside being .
source of amusement, will be also one
of instruction.

Too Much for Beans.

Haven't you got anything solid to
eat?" said a traveller, discontentedly
eying the profusion of pies and small
cakes on the counter of restaurant at
one of the way stations. 'Shall give
you some beans?" said the proprietor,
with his most persuasive smile. The
traveller assented, and making short
work of them, asked: "How much?"
''Twenty-five cents" was the bland re-
sponse. "Whatv' cried the traveller,
twenty-five cents for spoonful of
cold beans?" The proprietor continu-
ing firm in his price, the man paid it
and departed. But late that afternoon
telegram was handed into the restau-
rant keeper, for which he paid twenty
five cents. 1t ran thus: Don't you think
your price little high on beans?'-

BROkE UP THE GLASS.
Answer of sffiali hoy Whose Papa Dis
liked Church Going.


The hands of the clock pointed TO
three forty-five and school would not
be dismissed until four. So the school
ma'am, who was strict moralist,
thought she would give the young
ideas short lecture on goodness and
morality. After explaining to the lit
tie folks the various grades Of punish
ment for infractions of the law,
she resolved to ask few questions to
ascertain il her words had been COM
phehended.
Now, children" she said, 1--WE told
you what becomes of bad men, and
how good men get bad by lettering
around saloons and associating with
bad men. Now, let me see how many
of you have profted by my remark. l
wish some of you would tell me where
your papas hope to 60"
Nobody answered. 1t was plain the
schoolma' am was in too deep water for
the youngsters. She seemed to think
SO, too, so she said:
"I'll make that little easier. Tell
me where your papas don't want to
go?" expecting such answers as pris-
on, penitentiary and jail.)
There was painful wait, but finally
a little fellow in one of the rear seats
slowly raised his hand.
''Ah, there's one boy that can answer
that question. Tell us, Tommy, where
your papa doesn't want to go?"
"To church," replied Tommy. "He
says SO every Sunday morning"
Whereupon the school was dismissed.

WOMEN OF TO-DAY.
Brain Cultivation Has Pushed Charm
Manner Into the Background.

Brain Cultivation Has Pushed Charm e
Manner Into the background.
Has the woman Of to-day the charm
of the woman of century ago? Has
her boasted education lessened or in-
creased that charm?
We all agree that at the present
period woman is more companionable
to man, taking her in the sense of
comrade, than her ancestress of one
hundred years back; that, intellectual
ly, man acknowledges her his equal,
and last of all treats her as such, yield
ing her ungrudgingly place in business
and professions. all of which tends to
make her self-confdent and self-reli-
ant, but does it increase her charm?
There is danger ahead for the Ameri-
can woman. In her eager desire to
stand side by side with man she is be-
coming aggressively self-confident, and
unless she watches herself there is risk
of becoming too clever, Of becoming
stilted, dogmatic in the expression OF
her opinion-in word. unnatural, and
that way ruin lies.
A clever man Of the world not long
ago was heard to say apropos OF this
subject: "Thc most charming and de-
lightful thing in the world, but re.
gret to say the rarest, is a thoroughly
natural woman" A shrewd comment.
The woman of to-day cultivates her
mind to such an extent that she is self
conscious; she loses the charm of sim-
plicity of speech and manner. The
former Is stiltcd, the latter aggressive.
She has won reputation for clever
ness and she strives to maintain it at
all hazards.
In a word, in season and out OF Sea-
son, at home and abroad, she never
ceases to remember that she is a bright
woman.
1t has been happily said of French
woman whose gracious charm is pro-
verbal that she is clever enough to
conceal her cleverness from man. Not
so the American woman, who parades
the fact untiringly in the face OF the
world.
woman of this character is never
charming, and we all know that one
who possesses that gift sways more
hearts, and, better still, retains them
longer than a woman of twice her wit
and of even greater beauty. We hear
much of beautiful women and we have
all experienced that sense of disap-
pointment upon seeing for the first
time some world famous beauty.
We fail to see that marvellous perfec-
ton; we look in vain for fawless face
and form and coloring, we shrug our
shoulders and go away wondering at
the short-sightedness of man. We for
get that beauty is in the eye of the be-
holder, and that charming woman is
in the opinion of man beautiful
one.
She may be as fair in face as Titian's
LA Bella" and as perfect in form as
the Venus of Milo, yet if she lack tho
subtle something called charm, better
for the peace of mind of that woman
were she hopelessly plain, for without
it she delights not man nor woman
either.
If YOU ask me how to acquire this
charm should say, BE natural, again
be natural and always lie natural -

For Too Hot Ovens.

If the top of your oven insists on be-
coming too hot for your pastry or
bread, put pan of water on the CRATE
above the bread that is baking too
brown. If the CRATE has been removed
to make room take big sheet of the
common brown wrapping paper, fold
it and lay it over the bread or pies or
whatever it may be. If that is not at
hand use newspaper. Fold it to as
many thicknesses as necessary. The
thicker it is the more protection it will
afford from the too hot oven. OF course
it will brown and crisp, but you have
only to be careful about slipping it out
when it has answered its purpose. N.

INDIANS NOT TO BLAME.
Testimony Of Missionary Regarding
the Western Red Men.

New YORK, Sept. IL. Rev. G. j.
Ryder, d. d., secretary of the Indian
depart nent of the American Missionary
ASSOCIATION, which has mission station
at the Rosebud agency, South Dakota,
having been consulted with reference to
the notice served on Agent Wright and
his employees by the Sioux Indians TO va
cate I'm u days, says that he has been
there and knows somewhat of the condi-
tion OF things. He has been quite largely
through the reservation, and Is acqunint-
ed with some of the Indians personally
He says they are not a disturbing ele-
menf in the least. They are, in the main,
reliable men. Agent Wright is man
who is honestly desirous of securing the
best temporal interests of the Indians.
The American Missionary Association has
two white missionaries at Rosebud, Rev.
James II. Coins and wife. Scattered
over the reservation, the association has
several mission schools and churches.
These are cared for by native mission
aries. At Burrell station are Rev. Fran
els Frazier and his wife, AT Park street
station named after Park Street Church,
Boston, on the White river, are Mr.. Mot
Frazier and his wife. AT Blackpipe branch
are Mr.. Solomon Ycllowhawk and bls
wife, Josephine. Joining the reservation
are other native missionaries in homes
and in missions planted and sustained by
the association.
Secretary Ryder visited all these sta
tions year ago and was surprised at
the faithful work which was being done.
The wives OF these native pastors teach
the women all kinds Of domestic indus
tries.
