Rev George r. Dodson, the popu-
lar Unitarian minister of Alameda,
tells rather good story at his own
expense. While spending the sum-
mer vacation at Skagg's Springs, one
of his greatest friends was fellow
boarder, little girl about eight years
old. The two were constant compan-
ions, and the child daily accompanied
the clergyman on his excursions in
the neighborhood. One evening the
little girl remarked to her fellow din
ers:
81 like going out with Mr.. Dodson."
"Why," queried a stranger, hoping
to draw the child out.
because he has no MORALS" was
the startling reply.
When the summer boarders had re-
covered their equanimity, they insti-
tuted an investigation, the upshot of
which was the discovery that the cur
ly- haired maiden possessed an insatia-
BILE craving for stories. This desire
was frequently gratified by Mr.. bod
son; but, unlike the anecdotes of the
child's mother, the minister's tales
were never pointed with moral for
the youngsters government.

DRIVERS ON LONDON STREETS.

AS a rule, the carelessness of the
driver varies somewhat in proportion
to the invulnerability of the vehicle
that he drives. The driver of the han
som cab, though he often outrivals
Jehu in the speed and fury of his
driving, is always on the alert and
rarely fails to pull up his horse in
mid career and avoid the collision
which threatens him. To travel
swiftly, to cut in and out Of slower
carriages, is the life Of the hanson.
The driver of hanson keeps a sharp
lookout for obstacles and prefers pull
ing his horse on his launches to run
ming over even the innocent foot pas
senger.
It is curious that with all their
speed both hansoms and butchers
carts-by far the swiftest of the wheel
ed denizens of those streets-have
fewer accidents laid to their account
than their slower fellows. The omni
bus driver is also of careful nature.
He, too, conducts a carriage that can
not go into action with impunity. The
omnibus can afford to bully the han
som or the brougham, but it dare not
jostle the van of it's own size. And as
regards foot passengers, the driver
has a natural tenderness toward an
unprotected race who supply him with
fares.-London Spectator.

This is dog story in which Roger
is the hero. The cook noticed in the
last ten days that Roger had develop
ed terrible appetite, and was not
satisfied with one bone, but hung
around until he got two or three; and
then he would start off with them in
his mouth. The cook thought he
buried them, so he determined to fol-
low him one day and find out what he
did with them. He followed him
over to the barn, and close to the
barn there is an old hayrick with a
fence around it; and there in the
corner was a poor little, miserable
dog. He was one with whom we
were not acquainted, and therefore
called him a tramp dog. He was
bleary- eyed and skinny, and SO poor
that, when his tail wagged in appre-
citation of Rogers bringing him these
bones, his joints would make a noise
like a sand-paper rustic. Roger
would put down the bones in front of
the dog, make little dog talk, and
sit down and watch the poor little
tramp commence to eat them up.

meaning of every symptom, and telling how
you can surely get well and strong. He gives
most careful attention to each letter and ex

A bank teller of Vienna recently died
from the effects of moistening his fin
gers with saliva at the lips when
counting money. AT the first revision
of the vaults it fell to his lot to count
a large number of small bills, and, al
though repeatedly warned, continued
mechanielly to touch his lips when
his fingers became too dry. That
evening he felt smarting pain in his
lips, but did not attend to it until a
swelling had set in the next day. He
then consulted surgeon, who insist
ed upon an immediate operation
on the tumor, that had in the mean
time assumed alarming proportions,
as indispensable. A consultation of
eminent specialists declared his con-
dition critical, but decided upon the
operation as a possible chance. In
spite of the operation the patient
died three days after of blood poison

Housekeeping In Summer.

Housekeepers must not forget that
during the heated months thought and
care must be given to the cellar. Keep
the windows tightly closed during the
day. Open them in the evening or at
night. This will keep the cellar dry.
As the walls are cool the hot air of the
day will condense upon them and cause
moisture. In this condition the cellar is
scarcely a place for keeping food stuffs,
as the dampness causes mold. 1t is also
time to give up using large stoves or
ranges and substituting smaller ones
which will do the same amount Of work,
with greater comfort. Cooking by gas is
so extensively practiced that I need
scarcely rehearse the economy and dura-
bility of this method. Thousands Of gas
stoves are in use, and when once placed
are in to stay, and with care they are
more economical than coal. Persons in
the country manufacturing their own
gas can use the same stove they have
used in the city. Roasting and baking
may be done at the same time, thus
saving heat and gas.

is an oil stove. The points Of danger in
these stoves have been greatly removed.
Accidents occur only with careless peo-
pie. l am referring now strictly to oil,
not gasoline, stoves. The latter are al
ways more or less dangerous, as this

Thu sunbonnet Vote In New Zealand.

In one of the big towns in New Zea-
land the nominating convention chose as
candidate after a heated session a man
who in addition had objected to the edu-
cation Of women, on the ground that it
spoiled them for housekeeping. The
news spread from the nominating con-
vention half through the town. In that
hot climate many Of the women wear
large sunbonnets, something like the
poke bonnets which are in vogue in the
country towns Of our own country.
There were a number Of women in the
grocery store buying butter and provi-
sions when the news arrived. There was
a brief interchange Of remarks, and ev-
cry II went directly home. The houses
there are separated by fences o. trellises
covered with roses, morning glories and
scarlet creepers.
In two minutes after their arrival
home each IN had repaired to her
fence, called up her neighbor on either
side and had transmitted the tidiDgs
with more or less emphatic opinions
upon the action of the convention. Per-
sons who passed that afternoon said that
wherever they went they saw nothing
but couples of s%unbonnets in earnest but
subdued conversation. Within an hour
every woman in the town had been COM
municated with in sunbonnet fashion.
Before breakfast, it is said, every hus-
band had pledged himself to an indig-
nant wife.
The campaign, a brief one, went
through with singular apparent apathy.
The luckless candidate, who had been
fearful that his past would be overhaul
ed, was joyful and confident Of election
by a handsome majority, but when the
votes were counted he was buried by a
majority so large as to astound every
politician in the colony. The next day
the only newspaper which had support
ed him in the district announced it's dis
comfiture in the simple lines, "He was
buried forever by 5000 ~sunbonnets. -

most complete collections in the coun-
try, and q scheme of classification CT

the Worlds fair and it's adoption has

Another Of her achievements was in
dexing the publications Of the agricul-
tural department, which SO pleased the
secretary that he notified hef that it
would be published by the department,
and she was we'll paid for the work. In
fact, this production showed her value so
strongly that it was the direct means of
securing her present appointment. She
has published a number Of special arti
cles On agricultural subjects, a series on
new forage plants winning her wide
spread commentator, and she is now
engaged on a second series.
Miss Hasse is from Wisconsin, and
her father is DR.. Hasse Of the Soldiers

their rescue. She brought n Of the
party, a woman, to shore, then returned
at one to the spot where the others. a
man and a girl, were struggling in the
water, and actually succeeded in keep
ing them both afloat until a ROPE was
thrown from the pier.
By means of the rope the man was
got ashore, but the girl had q very mar
row escape. She was sinking for the
third time when Miss Evans dived after
her and brought her to the surface. 1t
is difficult to speak in ordinary terms
Of praise Of such a gallant feat as this
"a feat which very few women, and
not a great many men, could possibly
accomplish. Miss Evans must possess,
in addition to singular courage and
strength, natatory powers Of no common
order. Her example should impress upon
all mothers the absolute necessity Of
having their children, girls as we'll as
boys, taught to swim at the earliest
age. There is, in fact, no reason why a
healthy child should not learn to sup
port itself in the ate almost as soon
as it can walk.
Scarcely a day passes during the sum-
mer months without a report Of fatali-
ties on the sea or river, while in more
than half the cases the power to swim
only a few strokes would have caused
the saving Of a valuable life. Miss
Evans was born at Hampstead in 1874
and educated at Oriel college, Belfast,
under the able supervision Of Mrs.
Miles. She was taught to swim at Ban
gor, County Down, by her father, DR..

ice, who has every reason to be proud
of his pupiL-Lady's Pictorial.

The Corrected Woman.

The monster woman's demonstration
in London, which, although carried out
in behalf of temperance reform, enlisted
the sympathies and cooperation of wo-
men in all walks of life and with the
most unlike views, calls attention to the
gradual change which is coming over
the woman agitation.
Most, if not all, of the hysterical and
theatric elements which disfigured the
movement and subjected it to inevitable
ridicule have disappeared. The more
sagaciOus and temperate women have
had time to get to the front, and the
clamorous women who could not help
imparting a termagant air to all they
said and did are being displaced. We
hear less about the elimination of man
from the plan of the universe and are
not wrought to wonder at the piercing
desire Of ~undeveloped damsels to live
for themselves alone.
Woman, having discovered herself I'll
masse and with some violence, is o
proceeding to correct herself with a finer
reticence and, let u say, with a hap
pier sense Of the RELATIVELY Of things.
Miss Maud Banks is no longer invited
to writhe publicly under ''the burden Of
creation" for man. Mrs. Kinks warcry
Of woman for woman" does not wash,
and Eliza Burt CANDLES discovery that
mans organization is sufficient to &C.
count for all the evil in the world is
scheduled along with the maidstone and
the elixir of life. Even Miss Wizards
patent for lifting the sex out of mere
sexhood into womanhood" is c~uriously
associated with the latest flying ma
chine.
Some recognition is now due of the
profound faith Of man that woman
sooner or later would settle down to the
great work she had in hand and do it
with her heart and her conscience and
not with her tongue. He never wavered
in his belief in her ever while she flung
Sarah Grand at him. He always said
