think women can we'll afford to look at this question of electric storms with little more composure, with a result which will be 10 their greater comfort. After all, what really terrifies us about an electric storm is the roll of thunder. which, of course, is nothing more than the report of the lightning. It is the lightning, naturally, which is danger ous, and usually when storm comes during the daytime. this is the part of the storm of which we see the least. A vivid bolt of electricity in the inly blackness of the night is unquestionably alarming and terrifying in it's sudden brillancy. But as I have said before, and ! make this statement after care ful perusal of a series of studies by eminent authorities on the subject, the danger of an electric storm is far. far
 less than most people imagine. The dan ger is, in fact, so infinitesimal that the feeling of fear into which some women are wont to work themselves is as un- wise as it is unnecessary. Many a woman has worked herself into highly nerv- ous condition over a thunderstorm, when, as say, if she would simply see that all draughts of air were excluded from her house she would be compara- lively safe from any danger The actual danger is, in truth, not from the lightning nor the thunder, but from the nervous condition into which women allow themselves to fall. And this is a danger which they can avoid. A little calm thought and a few grains of com mon sense will do it.-Ladies' Home Journal.

FEAR OF THUNDER.
Some Words of Comfort for Timid
 Wnmen.

 Some Words of Comfort for Timid
 The average woman is afraid of what many people call "thunderstorms" and and others term electric storms Or if she does not actually tremble when g storm with thunder and lightning blows up she becomes exceedingly timid. Some women become so terrified when they hear the sound of thunder that they fly into closets or get between feather beds. Others, with blanched cheeks, immediately conceal knives, scissors and any other article made of steel which may be within reach. These precautions against q danger which seems imminent, but which, in reality, is not imminent at all, only go to show how fixed d popular notion may become. The fact of the matter really is that these trifing bits of steel, which ttmid women are so quick to conceal, will not attract current of lightning at all. And so far as a feather bed is concerned, the fact has been clearly demonstrated that it is no more of an insulated place than any other, and that it will not re- pei an electric current. On the other hand, what is q real source of attraction to the lightning, current of air, is, IS q general thing, very generally over looked by housewives during an elec= tric storm. Lightning, it has been prov en, has singular predilection for air currents, and draught in a house is the most dangerous of all lightning conductors.

TcoPYR1aHr, 1s9el

The fashionable world has paused for a moment in it's mad rush. Many of it's inmates have flown to their summer quarters for Q quiet spell before the sea- son opens. A few are still in town, and may be seen at the last nights of the theater, where we can easily gain some hints of modified modes. Each day and each week brings something a little diff ferent, in spite of the fact that the early spring gave the general outlines for the year.

4 Very Palatable Dessert for the Warm

 The English housekeepers make d number of delicious buildings. pies and desserts of the green gooscberry. though the fully matured fruit is little esteemed. Select the fruit when il is fully grown, but still green. Stew enough to make two cupfuls when strained through fine puree sieve that will take out the skin and seeds and leave only the pale green pulp. Cook the berries i'll a porcelain-lined kettle. It will require about two quarts or more for this amount of pulp. When the pulp is strained add a teaspoonful of the juice of lemon. Make pint of rich boiled custard. Use the yolks of three eggs, pint of rich milk and large eup of sugar. Let the milk boil, and pour it gradually over the yollxs of the eggs. which have been beaten with the sugar. Return the mixture to the fire, and when it boils remove it from the fire and add pint of rich cream. Cool this until it is ice cold, add the chilled goosebcrry pulp, which should be sweetencd to the taste, and pour the whole into the ice cream freezer. Add a few drops of spinach green, enough to give the ice a very delicate color. Freeze it care fully and pack it away when frozen to stand for three hours or longer. This ice looks very pretty served on the same plate with a strawberry and a white ce cream, or it may be served by itself in pale green glass dishes.-N. Y. Trjb- une.

The Car For Russia.

CoNsTANT1NoPLE. via Sofia, Bulga-
ria, April 10--It now appears, accord
ing to a semi-onicial statement, that
the Turkish government bases its
action eSpcll,ng or allowing the ex-
pulsion by the local authorities Of
Bitlis of the American missionary,
Knapp, on an understanding reached
between the port and United States
Minister Terrell 1t is said it was
agreed between the government and
Terrell that Knapp should leave Bitlis
April l, and as the missionary took
no steps to depart, the local officials
politely invited him to leave.
sKnapp has left Diarbekir for Alippo
where, unless the plans of the Turkish
government are interfered with, he
will he "invited" TO go to Alexan-
dretta to embark ubop steamer.
1t is greatly believed the expulsion
of Knapp is the first step taken by
the sultan in the direction of ex-
pelling all Protestant and Catholic
missionaries and the agents of the
American Red Cross Society from
Armenia.
There are several reasons given for
this movement, but the affair may be
summed up in the statement that
there Is no doubt that Russia and
Turkey are alarmed at the effect Of
of the work of missionaries in Ar
menia and elsewhere, and that II has
practically been decided that they
are to pc expelled under some excuse
or other to make way for priests Of
the Russian church.
This is believed to be the basis Of
the understanding Tor secret treaty.
arrived at between Russia and Tur-
key when the fleets of the powers had
assembled in the bay of Salonica and
the question of coercing Turkey by a
display Of naval strength before Con-
stantinople had been almost decided
upon. According to the explanations
furnished here of the sultan's present
attitude toward the missionaries, the
threatening attitude of the powers at
that time threw Turkey into the arms
of Russia, and the latter, after dicta-
ting her terms, caused the breakup
of the European combination against
the Turkish empire, by refusing to
take part in any such demonstration
and by threatening to protect the sui
tan by force of arms II necessary

Facts FOR Farmers to Study.
i Farmers will be interested in some
|'e,res and facts which Hon. Joel p.
. .iieatwole, Of Minnesota, recently pre-
As1ted in the House of Representatives
snowing the effect Of the German
islrifl upon their prosperity as COM
nhred with the Mckinley Tariff period.
I'nder the Mckinley Tariff the duty
ND barley was increased from ten TO
thirty cents per bushel and, as re-
splt, the importations of barley fell
iiom upward of eleven million bushels
10 less than one million bushels. Dur
ing the time the Mckinley law was
in operation the farmers of the United
States increased their annual barley
productlon by seventeen million
bnshels.
Heretofore Canada had been our
greatest competitor in the barley
market, but, since the repeal Of the
Mckinley law, Russian barley has
been sent to this country. In addition
t0 this the Canadian Government Is
oifering every inducement TO settlers
~ the section adjoining the United
Mates, lying northwest of the Da-
kotas, where the condition for barley
raislng is especially favorable.
In the year following the enactment
% the Mckinley law, the imports OF
Enrley fell off more than one-half, by
Itason Of the increased duty upon that
4fticle. They continued to fall year
bg year until, in the last year OF the
Mckinley law, the imports amounted
l0 less than one million bushels. Ii
