The women of Baltimore have set
about their work of theater censorship in
a sensible way and one that is likely
to prove most efficient. They have Or
ganized for the purpose of discounte-
nancing plays of an immoral tendency,
and they will act by staying away when
the performances are given. There is,
however, to be no public or concerted
action.
1.-THE society as whole, says one of
its members, will not boycott any par
tioular play which may be considered
improper, nor do the members pledge
themselves to any such united action.
II they join the society. they will SIM
ply promise to weigh carefully In their
own minds whether they honestly ought
to attend the performance of any play
which is generally considered immoral
or whether they ought to encourage bad
conduct among persons ON the stage by
going to see stars whose general reputa-
ton is that of being immoral persons
Any other course, any vote against any
particular play, would, il made public,
very likely have result directly oppo-
site to the purposes of the society by
sending hundreds Of persons to see the
play"
In addition to this voluntary censor
ship the club will have fortnightly
meetings through the theatrical season,
at which papers ON the drama, critical,
historical and otherwise, will be pre-
sented, together with discussions ON
current theatrical productions. At these
meetings actors of good reputation will
be invited to present their views on the
same subject.
The club is the outgrowth Of an idea
in the direction OF Mrs. Franklin. wife
Of Professor Fabian Franklin of the
Johns Hopkins university. Baltimore

Out OF the Ordinary Information About
the Making OF Kid Gloves.
Barefooted boys and hens form a Gu.
r'ous partnership in the making of
pair of fine gloves. They work together
in preparing the skins for the hands Of
the fashionable woman. Thousands Of
dozens of hens eggs are used in curing
the hides, and thousands Of boys are
employed to work the skins in clear wa
ter by treading ON them for several
hours
II the clerk who sells kid" gloves
knew the secrets of the glovemaking
business, he might surprise his fair GUS
TONERS by telling them that many Of the
soft, smooth fitting kid" gloves come
from the shoulders and belly of week
old colt whose neck was slit on the
plains Of Russia, and whose tender hide
was shipped with huge bundles of other
colts hides to France where they were
made up into ''kid" gloves, or he
might, with equal regard to the truth,
tell that those gloves in the other COM
partment once darted from tree to tree
In South America on the back Of ring
tailed monkey, and IL he made the
rounds of the store and could distin-
guish one skin from another he could
point out "kid" gloves made from the
skins of kangaroos from Australia, lambs
and sheep from Ohio or Spain or Eng
land, calves from India, muslsrats from
anywhere, musk oxen from China and
other parts of Asia; rats, cats and New
foundland puppies.
But the little Russian colt from the
plains where the Cossacks live, the colt
from the steppes Of Siberia, where
horses are raised by the thousands, sup
ply the skins which are the favorites at
present with the glovemakers. Experts
say that the coltskin makes better,
stronger, finer glove than real kidskin,
and as the colt is little fellow, only
weeks Id whom no 10 killed. hut n small
amount of skin can be made into gloves,
so that the price is about as high, says
correspondent in the New York
World, who adds: But, after all, the
| real kid, the lively infant Of the goats
which live in France, Switzerland,
Spain and Italy furnishes the best. fin

The Amateur Farmer,

He was tired of the city, and he thought
1t was pity that people during summer
In the heated town should stay, and he
thought the prospect charming of season
spent in farming, where he'd grow his
own corn and turnips and manufacture
hay.
To store he quickly speeded, bought
the implements he needed, then a sturdy
pair of horses fit to work the pillow no
sought; rented out his city dwelling, and
his breast with high hopes swelling no

he had bought
just at first it was enchanting He'd
come home at eve descanting ON the seeds
that he had planted and the fields that
he had plowed, and of EARLY Rose' pc

toes, snap beans, lettuces and carrots he
would talk both long and loud.
Soon, alasl his dream was over, for the
wiry grass and clover went astraying o'ei
his turnips, and no longer then they grew
Then the locusts ate his cabbage, and tho
worms his beans did ravage, and a COW
got In the gate and ate his corn and car
rots too.
Next the devil horses caught him and
a lot OF damage wrought him, and he saw
that he could never make a decent crop
that year. Said he to his young wife,
kitty, We will go back to the city, for
I'm tired and disguised, and can't make
Roadway here
To tho town they soon returned, and
no more his heart it yearned for life out
in the country and home on farm, and

how the crops are coming. Then you'll
have to skip out quickly, for he'll surely

by the first hand in the illustration.
Now ask him to move up and down,
while separating one from the other,
first the thumbs, then the index fingers,
then the little fingers. He will do this
very easily, while asking what there is
difficult about such an exercise, but
when he has come to the ring finger he
will perceive that it is impossible to
separate them unless he separates the
two joints which are to remain together.
This is a curious thing, is it not?
Fig. 2 shows an exercise which con-
sists of separating into two groups the
index and the middle finger and little
finger ON one side and the ring finger and
little finger on the other. Some persons
can do this at once without effort Others
require number of practice lessons.
Fig. shows the folding of the little
finger toward the interior of the hand,
while the other fingers remain stretched
out and close to each other. These last
two exercises are very useful for those
who desire to make their fingers supple
enough to cast all manner of shadows
ON the wall.
The exercise in No. consists in
turning in the end joint Of the forefin-
ger of one or both hands, while the
other two joints remain straight. That
appears very simple matter, doesn t
1t? Just try it.
