FOR WOMEN FOLKS.

WOMEN WHO NEED AMUSEMENT.
A woman writer in New York paper
asks why it is that actresses are apt to
look so much younger than other women
of the same age. What with much travel,
uncertain meals, late hours and constant
excitement she Is the opinion that they
would naturally look worn, and she refers
to the fact with some astonishment that
they do not look as worn as the women
who stay at home, practice all the virtues,
eat regular meals and observe the con-
yentionalties. The real truth OF 1t is
that the women who stay at home ire
uuently lack amusement Their lives
have no anticipation. Moreover they do
not practice all the virtues-they only
practice at some Of them. They are Of
ten ill-tempered and mean spirited. Their
regular meals are sometimes badly
cooked. Their digestion is often bad
and their souls narrow The actress may
work hard but she works enthusiastically.
She is admired, flattered, often beloved. II
she succeeds in doing her work well, ap-
plause greets her ears-applause which
sends the blood coursing through her
veins and wakens JOY in her heart. Inc
mental excitement she feels stimulates
her, but does not necessarily exhaust.
1t is quite true that 1t is best for the
human race, best for the state that nearly
all the women stay at home and raise
children. But let no one say that such
women are necessarily happy. There are
more drudges, more brOken-hearted Wo-
men, more mere human vegetables, more
women "who weep in the night time in
the homes than anywhere else. 1T is
something very irritating to hear the
home celebrated as the one place where
women are in state of blissful serenity.
when anyone can look around her own
neighborhood where domestic unhappi-
ness spreads like deadly mildew and the
women slave like men in the trenches.
If one wants to see a jaded, weary ennu-
led, addressed and discouraged set Of
women she has only to go to certain
class of society and take them from the
homes.

NICETIES OF SPEECH.

One of the most peculiar things in the
world is the cOntagion Of small ideas.
Two years ago one heard all over the
country, and precisely at the same time,
a general attempt in conversation to
cease the quondam careless "dont chew
and. say properly don't you" And now
eat all" in contradistinction to "a tall, -
which is time-honored, has in like man.
ner sprung up into universal trial at ex-
actly the same time over widespread
tracts of country. Language is far and
away more elegant than it was a decade
ago even, and pronunciation is far more
watched and attended to. Nor Is this
all. There are more good takers than
there used to be. and more people try to
be good takers than ever before. 1t is
attaining the dignity of an art.

TITAN HAIR COLORING

The beautiful bronze coloring which
is one of the most admired tints for the
hair, is said. in an old Italian recipe. to
have been attained in the time of Titan
by mixture of alum, sulphur and honey.
The proportions are not given. 1t is
hardly probable, however, that any one
will care to discover them and try this
sticky concoction. A little soda in the
water in which naturally fair hair is
washed will go far towards PRESERVING
it's golden tints, but it must be used with
the utmost discretion, as it undoubtedly
does tend to rot the hair, although it
has been known in use for twenty years
without any perceptible bad results.

THE EFFECT OF HILLS.

A teacher of the Delsarte method says
that she has had her attention particu-
larly attracted by the bad carriage of
women in all the towns that border on
the Hudson river. They are more in
clined to stoop, she thinks, than those
of any other part Of the East which she
has visited. She concludes that this
must be the result Of the hills which
border on the Hudson, and on which
mCst of its towns are built So much
hill-climbing has led to prevailing
ound-Shouldered condition.

DELFT DOILIES.

A favorite design at present in fancy
work is what is known as the delft-ware
pattern for doilies and table centerpieces.
1t is conventional design, such as those
seen on the plates initiated, and done
with embroidery silks of the exact shade
of blue required. The imitation of china
patterns for table linen is not new; two
years ago Dresden china's floral wreaths
were first introduced for the purpose on
small doilies, and this later idea follows
quite as natural sequence.

New Yachting Rules.

The Council of the Long Island Sound
Yachting Association has recommended
that the class limits be so arranged so as
to admit of only one numbered class for

l is for all boats over 80 feet, the other
classes being the 80-foot class, 70-foot class,
6O-foot class, 50-foot class, 43-foot class, So
foot class, 30-foot class, 25-foot class, 20
foot class and 15-foot class. Ali these
classifications are to be based on measure
ment by sailing length, while the time
allowance table, it is suggested. should be
based on go per cent of the theoretical
allowance.
The following recommendations were
made regarding the new limits:
schooners, class lone man for every two
feet or frac ton thereof-95-foot class, 80 men
85-foot class, % men; 75-foot class, 10 men
65-foot class, 13 men.

Irrigation in Kansas.

During the past week the pump which
is to raise the water for the Hoffman irri-
eating plant in the Smoky Hill Valley
near Enterprise, Kan, has been put into
position and the first water has been
turned into the bitches. The pump has a
capacity of 10000 gallons of water per
hour and it works like a charm. 1t is oper-
ated by water wheel, which already pro-
vides q large part of the power for a corn
mill and the water is drawn from the
Smoky River just above the Hoffman mill
dam.
Nearly 200 acres of land are under ditch
and can be watered. The main bitches,
which are nearly three miles long, carry a
stream of water three feet deep and four
feet wide. The pump running at its full
capacity will in ten hours put fifty acres of
much moisture as heavy rainfall
Ralph Hoffman, son of G. B. Hoffman
and manager of the plant, says that only
about 100 acres of the 200 under ditch will
be put under water this season owing to
the fact that in order to rent the land this
season he is compelled to give renters q
water guarantee" which he does not feel
like giving for so large an acreage in the
experimental stage of the enterprise. Up
ward of fifty acres have already been ''let'
to renters in plats ranging from one to five
acres at $l5 per acre, water guarantee be-
ing given. Each renter receives free of
charge for the season the services of an ex-
perienced irrigator recently from Greeley,
Colo. He will have the control of the
water and will conduct experiments look
ing toward the success of irrigation under
the circumstances here. The crops grown
this year will be largely of an experime entail
nature. A large part of the ground will be
planted to potatoes, cabbages, onions and
celery.-kanSaS City Star.

OIL WELLS ARE IGNITED.

the Flames.
ONE MAN SERIOUSLY INJURED.
Fears That the Blaze VIII Cross the
Clarion River and Wipe Out
the Little Town.

BRADFORD, Pa, May 5.-The most de-
structive forest fires known in this section
for years have been raging for the past
week. About o'clock this morning fire
started between Glen Hazel and Keltners.
Delivers sawmill, located between these
points, was soon destroyed, together with
10000, 900 feet of lumber, an engine-house,
railroad switches, sixteen cars OF lumber
and coal, eight dwellings, an oil well and
several thousand acres of timber land.
A special train, consisting of steamer
and large force of firemen, was sent from
here to the scene of the confagration. The
firemen were unable to do anything but
divert the course of the flames. Every
thing in the woods is very dry and the
leaves and underbrush furnish abundant
fuel for the blaze. The flames are going
I'D the hillside at rapid rate and destroy
ing everything in their path. The sky is
black with sitting smoke and the flames
shoot up as high as the tops of the trees.
A man had his shoulder broken and
another was injured internally while
jumping from one of the buildings. In
another house lay a woman who had given
birth to a child twenty-four hours pre-
vious. She was rescued from the flames
with much difficulty and it is feared she
will die from fright and exhaustion.
This afternoon a second appeal was re-
ceived from Glen Hazel asking more help,
and thirty-fve fremen with hose were
sent by special train. 1t was feared the
fire was about to cross the east branch of
the Clarion River and sweep out the town
of Glen Hazel. The woods along the Erie
railroad between Keltner and Bradford
are on fire and it is feared the loss to oil
and lumber property will be great.
The following are the losses: Elias
Deemer of Williamsport, 100000 feet
hemlock lumber, valued at $85, 600, partly
insured: Dolliver sawmill, 1000, no in
surance; Kelton and Shawmut Railroad,
