ney General Harmon to-day instructed
United States District Attorney Clarke
Of Wyoming to sue out writs of habeas

A little known example Of inventive
genius In woman is that afforded by
Barbara Uttman of Saxony and her
point lace so long in fashionable use all
over the world. She invented the proc
ess and apparatus for manufacturing
this beautiful handiwork, which has
since given employment to millions Of
operators, and which, in its line. has
never been excelled. The apparatus
looks like long pincushion bristling
with pins arranged to outline the pat
tern or design. The operator manages
from 10 to 30 peculiar spools, allowing
the thread to feed over the pins alter
nately until the design is completed.
The spools or bobbins are purposely OF
different colors, SO as to be easily distin-
guishable. The process is slow and diff
cult to learn. Miss Uttman founded
schools, where thousands learned 1t.
Since her time, when inventive ability
was rare, even among men, her ideas
have been incorporated in the construc-
tion of machinery by which the lace Is
produced at wonderful lower rates, and
yet Barbara Uttman's lace still sur
passes all. London Lady.

The widows section" in the big
printing house is so called from the ex-
elusive employment of soldiers widows
ON certain class Of work that can be
easily performed by women who are for
the most part past the prime of life.
There is a single section, comprising
something like 100 of these beneficiaries.
They are piece workers and are paid only
for what they do, just as are other
piece workers. The only favor shown
them is the permission Of the govern
ment to earn living where their hus-
bands lost their lives-in the service Of

How tho Money Goes.

It is unsafe to allow any ordinary wo-
man to enter store with money. Sho
has such craving for luxuries, such
contempt for mere necessities, that she
almost invariably purchases the former
and is constantly in need of the latter.
She goes forth to purchase an opera bon
net because she is going to the opera that
very night, but her eye is caught by q
tea gown, bargain tea gown, and she
buys it, That night some man seated
behind a Gainesborough with many
plumes swears. She goes out to buy
jacket, needing one sorely, but her err
ratio fancy is caught by lace trimmed
underwear, and before she realizes 1t
she Is reveling in new nightgowns and
corset covers. She has even been known
to go out to buy writing paper and to
return with nothing but blue and
white cup and saucer.

If my choice were free, I would rath-
err give my boy the memory Of fairly

and leave him nothing then but a con-
sequent reasonable optimism, an un-
sapped courage and disposition to re-
gard money as means rather than an
end than keep him constantly face to face
with specter Of possible poverty, fill
him full Of premature cares and leave
him s., 900 or $25, 200 year and no
memories, or well ground, healthy
tastes, or world to live In indeed except
such as he commonly sets out to make
for himself under these Circumstances,
which is worse than nothing. -Scrib-

seamanshIp Past and Present.

In the past seamanship was the chief
thing. In the present seamanship, in
the old and strict sense Of the world,
holds very subsidiary place. When
the winds and the waves and the tides
could not be forced and had to be hui
mored, the mystery of dealing with
these elements was worthy study for O
whole life. But today we force the
winds, the waves and the tides, and
humor them very little. The seaman is
in process of becoming the engineer.
Every year he becomes more and more
the engineer, and / am certain that a
much briefer experience Of the sea than
was formerly needed is now required to-
ward the formation Of the good officer.

She Does Not Keep Pace with the Ad-
vance of Medical Science.
We all know just what adorable crea-
lures all grandmothers are, and how
they cannot do enough for tho little
ones belonging to their sons and daugh-
tiers. Now, without wishing to appear
ungrateful for these attentions, there
are some mothers who think themselves
quite capable of caring for their own
babies, and the continual and persistent
contrary opinion of grandma becomes
after time vexatious rather than help
full.
Even though grandma has brought up
dozen children, and this is her daugh-
ter's very first experience In that line,
it is just as we'll not to give overheard
doses of advice, nor is it good policy to
empty out the medicine the doctor pre-
scribes for baby's cough and substitute

was all that the youngsters of another
generation were dosed with.

Babies need as varied treatment as
plants do What may have answered

though baby is novelty to the young

must remember that she had to be initi-

Perplexed with business fret and jar,

And charmed 1t into peace again.

My neighbors just as cold within,
And truth was Just as full OF doubt
The world was Just as full Of sin.

How Much n Windmill VIII IrriEate.
or course the deeper the water is be-
low the surface, the greater is the
power required to raise it. Conse-
quently, a windmill of a given strength
will raise less water and irrigate less
land when the water has to be raised
200 feet than when it has to be raised
100 feet. A twelve foot windmill is
usually reckoned capable of doing the
following, provided suitable reser
voir Is attached:
Water 200 feet below the surface,
with a reservoir 3OX6O and six feet
deep, will water one acre of garden.
Water 100 feet in depth, with reser-
voir 4OXSO. one and one-half acres.
Water 100 feet in depth and reser-
voir 5Ox1OO, two acres.
Water fifty feet In depth and reser-
voir 6Ox12O, four acres.
Where the soil is free from rocks
and well points can be easily driven,
it will always pay to put up wind
mill, II the water Is within fifty feet
of the surface, wherever there is
sale or demand for garden truck and
where the necessary water cannot be
obtained by any cheaper method.
Usually arid land near enough to town
can be obtained for very small sum,
and as the total cost of a windmill and
reservoir will not exceed $3.50, 1t Is
like buying four acres Of irrigated land
for this amount, plus the value of the
land in its arid state.-Southwestern
