ated by Napoleon in 1916 Apart from sis
ters nineteen women in all have received
the decoration.
Nearly everyone has hobby OF some
sort. but that of Princess Marie of Edin-
burgh. now the crown princess Of Rou-
mania, Is an unusual one-the collection
of perfumery bottles. In this she resen-
bles her grandmother, the late empress of
Russia, who at her death had made col

valued at f7,000
The women of the west are rapidly re-
moving the reproach of sentimental weak
ness from their sex. One preached her
husbands funeral service little while
ago, and another, Mrs. s. ]. Krufeld, NJ.
d., of Kansas City, assisted in a post
mortem examination of her suddenly de-
ceased husbands remains.
Mr.. irving tells n good story of an old
Scotch woman, living not far from Bal
moral, who criticised the queen somewhat
hostilely for having ridden out on a Sum
day. Met with the retort that Christ him
self plucked ears of wheat on the Sab
bath, the orthodox old person exclaimed:
'Ah. yes, ken all about that, and dinna
think any the better of Him for it,
Mrs. Hart is q woman who has written
book to prove that most of the Ills to
which flesh Is heir are due to meat diet
She says that there Is more pickering in
English families than in any others which
she has visited, and she ascribes this la
mentable state of things to the Anglo
Saxon fondness for roast beef Mrs, Hart
has gone further than this and has studied
the mild Mongolian and other light-living
races. and holds them up as models of gen.
tleness due to vegetable diet.
Countess TOUGHER de Corell whose late
husband was ambassador to the Austrian
court and senator has been made a
Knight of the Order of the Legion of
Honor in her capacity of president of the
Society Of the Ladies of France. There
are only very few ladies who have at
tained to this distinction, among them be-
Ing Rosa Bonheur, the famous lady paint
er, and Nine. Dieulafoy, who assisted her
husband, the celebrated archaeologist, in
his excavations in Persia.
THE NEW WOMAN:
She does not "languish in her bower,n
Or squander all the golden day
In fashioning q gaudy flower
Upon worsted spray;
Nor Is she'qute cortent to walt
Behind her "rose-wreathed lattice pane,
Until beside her fathers gate
The gallant prince draws rein."
The brave new woman scorns to sigh
And count it "such grievous thing
That year on year should hurry by
And no gay sutor bring;
In labor's ranks she takes her place,
With skilful hand and cultured mind;
Not always foremost in the race,
But never far behind.
And not less lightly fall her feet
Because they tread the busy ways,
She Is no whit less fair and sweet
Than maids of olden days.
Who, gowned In samite or brocade,
Looked charming In their dainty guise,
But dwell like volets in the shade,
With shy, half-opened eyes.
OF life she takes a clearer view
And through the press serenely moves,
Unfettered, free; with judgment true,
Avoiding narrow grooves,
She reasons and she understands;
And sometimes tbs her joy and crown
To lift with strong yet tender hands
The burdens men lay down.

DR.. F. Winckel, professor in the
Royal University Clinic for Women at
Munich, thus tells the new woman how
to be healthy: To begin with, she must
have plenty of healthy blood. To keep
up a sufficient of this she must eat an
abundance OF, nourishing food. She
should drink plenty of milk and eat
plenty Of eggs and meat. Fresh meat
Is especially essential A woman will
not have sufficient appetite to eat abun-
dnntly ufllessi she exercises freely. and
IL she does eat abundantly she will have
need of still further exercise to promote
the active performance Of their func-
Stfons by her digestive organs. If she
exercise freely, that exercise should
be taken under the most fealthful con-
dlibns possible. She should wear loose
cfothing at all times, but above all when
exercising. All her exercise should be
taken, 20 far as practicable, In the open

POLLING TEE FIRE FIEND.
Good Thing That Pushes Itself Along
Automatically.


A merchant of Gowanda has invented a
most remarkable apparatus for saving
stocks OF goods from fire. Instead of put
ting out the fire the apparatus opens the
front Of the sore and the counters, cases
and shelving roll out into tho street into
their owner : arms.
The shelving and counters in the store
are all portable and mounted on rollers.
Attached 10 the rear end Of the shelving is
a cable which runs forward and over q
wheel below the floor in the front of the
store. TO this end of the cable are suspend
ed weights sufficiently heavy to overbal-
anCc the shelving, cases and I, )OdS in them.
A brake device keeps the weights from
setting the machine going. Attached to
the lever Of the brake is combuStiblc cord
which passes upward into the store and is
carried along the walls and ceiling, where
it will be quickly igniJed in case Of fire.
The Sundurlpg Of the cord loOscns the
brake, the weights bear on the cable and
the shelves start heller SHELTER for the
front Of the building. At the same time
the windows and doors open automatically
outward. and the entire contents of the
store are dumped on the sidewalk in II

ABOUT nve years ago there came to
Cramps shipyard a stray terrier dog, who,
by his friendly ways, soon made himself
welcome about the watchman's box at the
main entrance gate on Ball street and
among the men working just inside tho
gates Waterman Stafford named him
Charley and saw to his getting food. One
day Charley had the misfortune to get one
of his feet crushed under Il car on Beach
street. and Policeman Gillen of the Elev
enth district, who does duty about there,
bandagcd the wounded foot and cared for
1t until it got well. Ever since then Char
ley halls his beEefactOr with demOnstra-
lions of joy whenever he comes around,
barking and rubbing up against him as u
mark of friendship. When the Brooklyn
was launched, Policeman Gillen was in
line with the men of his district in the
yard and Charley went in search of him.
When he found his friend, he gave vent 10
his joy to such an extent as to draw atten.
tion from the thousands of people standing
around. philadelphia Record.

TALES OF TEE TINS.
Katzenjammer breakfasts, or the Kaiser'S
Remedies.

Katzenjammer Breakfasts, or the Eaiser'S
Remedies.
Some gentlemen who were Mt Kiel dur
ing the festivities have introduced in New
York what is known rs Kaiser Wilhelm's
katseEjSmlnrr breakfast. Interpreted, this
means tho breakfast that the emperor is
supposed to eat after a night out. These
gentlemen said that at kiel the kaiser al
WAYS had for breakfast what was known
as Russian eggs, Il dish which consists of
two cold boiled eggs, cut in half with ono
gardclo on each half the whole spread
with mayUnnaiSc, and this topped with
caviare and capcrs. Sometimes a thin slice
of onion would surmount the Capers, and
on other mornings the capors were rubbed
with garlic.
The kaisor's rule appeared to be this:
After an ordinary night-that is to say,
one in which Inc had not taken more than
two or three bottlCs-th0 breakfast first
outlined would be served. If the night
had been fairly wct-say he had consumed
twice the number Of bottles mentioned
the onions would be added, and after q
very wet night-one in which the number
of bottles was fOrgottcn-the garlic would
take the place of the onions With the first
breakfast the emperor drank bitter beer;
with others, mineral water.
From all that could be learned the kaiser
was high roller and n true descendant Of
the German noble who considered it part
of his duty to drink his guests under the
table Although his physique did not COM
pare with that Of some of the giants who
sat at his table, it is said that none was
found who proved his better in contest
with llagons.
The gentlemen who gave this infOrma-
ton reported also some other experiences
with cures for bad mornings. They said
that all Germans agreed in extolling the
benefits of bit of onion or garlic Moth
ing. they said was superior in toning the
stomach. Other remedies which they dis
covered ut the Same time were Bismarck

graph system.
An experiment of more than usual III
trrcst was made in Philadelphia by well
known experts recently to determine the
practical value Of the new high speed sys-
ten of machine telcgraphy recently
brought out by Patrick b. Delnny, by
which he proposes to do the mail business
by wire instead of train, at Il cost so low
that very large percentage of business
communications between distant cities
will be thus transmitted.
The new system is worked automaticnl-
", punched tape taking the place of the
sending operators. Over single wire rs
many as 900 words minute can DO sent
between points as far distant from each
other as New York and Chicago.
The weather was not propitious for a
test, but the first message sent, over line
of high resistance, 2lS miles long, was re-
ceived in perfectly legible shape, as was
every other one sent. The speed, which
was at first 72O words minute, was in
creased to 94O u minute without any de-
crease in the legibility.
Mr.. Delany stated that with wire
weighing $40 pounds to tho mile, which
would give a line resistance much less
than that used today, he could send |, 900
words minute with equal loVibility and
at cost not exceeding 3 cents for 90

No Termination In 300, 600.

Maurice Dore real estate agent of san
Francisco, died recently. He was the soul
Of honor, aud few men Of the days of forty
nine have been so conspicuous as no is in
this ono respect.
The most striking illustration of his
honor is a part Of the history of the state.
After the failure of tho Bank of California
on Aug % 1875, and the suicide of VIII
liam G. RalstOn little or no trace could
be found Of the large private fortune Of
tho man who had done SO much for this
state and whose memory is beloved to this
day Then Maurice Dore came forward
voluntarily and said:
II have in my name about $400, 900
worth of property belonging to Mr. Raj
ston. Though there were no papers signed
between us, the property was his.
1t was Ralston's habit to trust his
friends Just as he had trusted Maurice
Dore, and it is certain that to many the
president of the Bank of California thus
turned over large portions of his private
fortune. Of these confldants Of the mil
lionairo but one was worthy Of the trust,
but one came forward, and that was
Maurice Dore. No one but he knew that
Ralston had placed the property in his
name. No one would ever or could ever
have been any the wiser if Maurice Dore
had not himself come forward and said
that the property belonged to Ralston.
Mr.. Doro was not poor man, even in
those days, though he was not a million
aire by any means The quiet, unostenta-
tious manner in which Dore resigned the
$500, 900 worth of property staggered peO-
pie, and to this day his name is not mem
toned without the story being recalled.
He earned his reputation as an honest
man, and few men have ever paid SO high
a price for the satisfaction Of knowing
that he was honest, for no one would ever
have known that he was not if he had
held the s4OO, 900 worth Of property.
Maurice Dore was born near Limerick,
in Ireland, in 1920, and came to Califor-
mia by way of Australia in 1S49. He land
ed in San Francisco, and soon after en-
tered the liquor business which he fol-
lowed for about 90 years Since 1869 he
had been a real estate dealer and auction
eer 1t was in this latter occupation Uiat
Mr.. Dore met and won the esteem of Hal
ston. Always a temperate man, of modest
tastes, he acquired comfortable fortune,
and though at one time he was beset by
financial troubles he weathered them sue
cessfully and at his death was in good
circumstances Francisco Examiner.
