An Afehan New Woman.

Tho new woman has penetrated even to the harem of the amoer of Afghanls- tan. where she wears male attire ana does precisely as sho pleases. Tho amoer picked her up, says a writer i'll The La dies, Pictorial, on his return journey from the northern part ot h1s domlhlohs 2 good many years ago. Sho had been brought before him by all indignant 1a- ther and proposed husband for punish ment. She would not conform to tEo nsages of the country and enter the married state, though she had then reach ed tho ago when it became incumbent upon her to do So. The girl declareu she had run wild all her life and dlo not wish to givo up her freedom and pc shnt m in a harem. Sho sought the amaer's protection and obtained 1t.
 "All right, :" he said. "Slnco you wish to be free, free you shall be- but free you must also remain. That IS your nnnishment You wish to live llko man. You shall live like one, and Ioi vour own protection you must wear men's clothes.
 On her arrival in Kabul she was BY. on tho title of sirdar, or chief, ana wa made tho harem messenger. Sho come' and goes as sho pleasos or IS ordered both by night and day, and no one' oyel in slanderous Kabul, has ever preaIne' word against her fair fame.-NeV York Tribune.

ADVERTISING HINTS.
lFrom tho Advertising World.1

tfr0m the Advertising World9
 Up-to-date advertising won't sell out-of-date goods.
 Think for today's needs, plan for tomorrow's business.
 Lead in advertising, never follow the leadership of a competitor.
 Make business by creating a de- mand for what you have to sell.
 A faint announcement never won q large response of business.
 Look to the past for experience look to the future for improvement
 If the past years advertising was good, make the present years adyer- Using better.
 A catch phrase that represents what you are offering will fasten the interest of the people you want to reach.
 The most remarkable feature of the trading stamp scheme is that so many bright business men arc taken in by it.
 To offer the best values is desirable. To give the widest possible knowl- edge of what you offer bring best re- suits.
 Every article has a place of useful ness. Know how to present the features of that article to quickest get it to it's place of doing good.

GOV BOB TAYLoR,s TAI Es.

This book is made up of Gov. Tay lor's three superb lectures, "The Fiddle and the Row." "The Para disc of Fo0ls," and .'Visions and Dreams" We call to mind no iec- turer who has ever won such won derful popularity in so short while as has Gov. Taylor.
 All over the nation he has lectured and everywhere all classes and con- ditions of people have thronged to hear him. And none went who did not fall in love with our genial Bob with his boundless humOr, his tender pathos, his wholesome philosophy, and his flights of eloquenee unsHr- passed. These many thousand of peo- ple have learned to love Bob Taylor, and they will be glad to learn that his lectures-those brilliant, soulful, sparkling children of his genius and Iove-have been put into book form. Now he can go into every home and sit by every fireside, and every home will be better and every fireside brighter for his being there. The little book should find its way into every family in the land, for where ever it goes and is read it's happy philosophy,its satisfying humor, and it's noble lessons of patience and humanity, will be as seeds of hope and love to bud and blossom and burst into sunshine and song in the human heart.

Chauvin, seems likely to gain her hearts desire and to bo allowed to practico Lady barristers will certainly bo @ novelty, and there seems no particular reason why they should not be a successful "Tho gift of the gab" has al ways been woman's attribute, and when to this sho adds discretion, know ledge and good looks she bids fair to provo formidable rival to her male competitors. Whether her prudence will be equal to her zeal, her tact equal to her enthusiasm, remains to be proved, but in cases where women have conduct ed their own cases they have generally done it efficiently, as thoso who remem- Der Mrs. Weldon and other ladies versed in the law must acknowledge. A fresh career will now be open to women, who are already running a neck and neck race with their male rivals. London GraDhip

Womnn,a Influence.

A Swedish writer, Frau Hanson, in her 'Das Buoh der Frauen " thus de- seribes tho relation between modern men and women: eIt is q peculiar sign of the times that in spite of the many restrictions of former days men and wo- men have never stood wider apart than at present and have never understood one another more badly than now. Tho honest, unselfish sympathy, tho true, should like to say organieaI, union, which Is still to be observed i'll the mar ried life of old people, seems to have vanished. Each goes his or her own way. There may be nervous search for each other and q short finding, but 1t IS soon followed by speedy losing. Is 1t tho men who are to blamo2 The men Of former days were doubtless very differ ent, but in their relations to women they were scarcely moro sociable than at present. Or is it the women who are at fault?
 tFor some time past I havo watched life in it's many phases and haYe come to tho conclusion that it is the woman who either develops the mans oharac- ter or ruins it. His mother and the wo- man to whom he unites himself leave an everlasting mark upon the impress sionable sido of his nature. In most eases tho final question is not, What is the man like? but, What kind of wom- an is she? And think that the answer is as follows: A woman $ actions arc moro reasonable than they used to be, and her lovo is also more reasonable. Tho consequence is lossening of the passion that is hers to give, which again results in a corresponding coolness on the part of tho man. ,

THE ANCHOR LINE, HISTORY OF THE s0RGANIzA. TON WHICH HAS
 ASSIGNED. Has Been in Businass for Thirty. One Years, Many Ups and
 Downs .-Supplanted
 By Barges.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Jan. 20-The as- signment of the Anchor Line of steamers was great surprise to many in this city who thought the concern on most solid financial standing. Later news says the diff eulty will be bridged over and that boats will run as usual.
 The Anchor Line was organized the first year after the war, and it was one of the first trusts or combl- nations started in the West.
 Prior to that time there wereshort steamboat lines running between St. Louis and Cairo; Cairo and Memphis; Memphis and Yicksburg; Vicksburg and Natchez; and Natchez and New Orleans.
 These short lines were all taken in- to the Anchor Line Company. The small boats unsuitable for the trade were condemned, laid up or sold and new boats were built.
 Two lines were started-one be- tween St. Louis and Memphis and the other between St. Louis and New Orleans. At the various towns along the Mississippi river freight el- evators were built, and the controll- ing interest in these elevators were held by the Anchor Line or people interested in it.
 Between 1866 and 1880 the Anchor Line practically controlled the wa terway between St. Louis and Mem phis and New Orleans But then the Mississippi Valley Transportation Company of St. Louis was organiz- ed. This line, with it's powerful sternwheel towboats and it's grain barges, cut into the Anchor Line lSouth-bound grain was taken away from the Anchor Line and went tC the barge line. North-bound cotton cotton seed meal. fertilizers and sug- ar from New Orleans went to the Mississippi Valley and not to the Anchor Line. The barges and tow boats could be operated cheaper than the Anchor Line's floating pal aces. With the carrying of freight l lost to the Anchor Line came the be ginning of the end. Railroads were built on each side of the MissssippI and the passenger travel went from the boats to railroads.
 Tn the South, during all the years of it's career the Anchor Line was considered as reliable as clock. The boats have always carried big an cbor swung between the smoke stacks.
 Between Memphis and St. Louis the patrons of the line expected three mails week and three boats week and got them.
 Between Memphis and New Or leans two through boats q week were expected. and high water or low, they always passed as schedul ed. That is why the line has always been so popular with the country merchants and shippers.
 The company in thirty-one years has lost many fine boats by fire and wreck, in some cases the loss of lifc being heavy. But in every case of { boat lost new and handsomer ont has been built.
