A young woman went into a large
dry-goods store not long ago and began
openly to pocket articles from the
counter. On being arrested, she said
quietly that having no home but the
streets, she preferred to spend the
night in prison. The incident empha-
sizes President Eliot's recent caution
to would-be philanthropists. Hospitals
and asylums and reformatories are but
necessary palliatiVes of developed evil;
whereas churches, schools, museums,
gardens, gymnasia are instruments Of
moral construction, and to train
child to avoid evil and pauperism is
better than to help the adult out Of
those conditions.

Market for UnsklIled Labor.

The monthly journal published bv
the labor bureau of the British Board
Of Trade contains reports each month
from the great labor centers of the
world on the condition of the labor
market. It is to be noted that mn
where is there any demand for I'M
skilled labor, and, in fact, the I'M
skilled laborer is warned to keen
away from most of the countries or
colonies mentioned. Nor for that mat
ter can the demand for skilled labor
be said to be good, for while OCCASION
ally there is an opening, as in New
South Wales, ''if they can afford to wait
a little" usually every country has
more than it needs. Even Natal from
which the report is, There is no de-
mand for more mechanics or other la.
Dorers. Many persons have
been unable to find employment"

AcETYLENE GAS.
One Whole City Is Being Lighted

One Whole City Is Being Lighted
by Il
La Nature has the very latest aTl-
thoritative article upon the use of
acetylene gas for Illuminating purpos-
es. This gas, which at first was pro-
nOunced so dangerous, is now found to
be really less to be feared than coal
gas, if a proper generator is used by
a careful person. There are good ma
chimes for producing and controlling
the gas, and every one interested in
their details is referred to La Nature,
or the translation of the original ar
ticle in the Scientific American. It is
interesting to know that acetylene is
coming more and more into use in
France. Many private consumers use
1t, some Of the suburbs Of Paris are
trying it and one whole city Is lighted
by it. The gas is produced, as will be
remembered, by acting on a compound
of calcium and carbon with water. The
calcium is changed to lime by the oxy-
gen in the water, while the carbon
unites with the hydrogen present to
form the inflammable hydroCarbon
acetylene. This can be shown by
curious though rather inelegant ex-
pertinent. Take a piece of the stone
like calcium carbide and spit on it.
The water in the saliva is sufficient
to decompose the carbide and the ace
tylene gas may be easily lighted with
a match and will burn as long as the
materials used to produce it hold out.
Though you may understand the chem
iStry OF the process of the manufac-
ture Of acetylene, this practical appli-
cation Of the principles involved will
rather startle you the first time you
see 1t.

Whoever thinks art an easy mistress
let him study biography. One of the
foremost of American actors recently
told an audience of young men that
for something like seven years he was
almost on the verge of starvation.
Night after night, after the play he
would invest one of his few pennies in
hot baked potatoes, put them in his
pockets, and after warming his hands
on them would swallow them. Sargent
and l." said famous painter and
sculptor to an art student, as he cor
rected her drawing, spent some
months in Spain when we were young
artists. We were very, very poor. Sar-
gent could talk better Spanish than /,
so he went out and bought the beans,
and / cooked them. Beans were all we
had to eat" Yet Mansfield and Sar-
gent and Duveneck, like thousands of
other brave and successful men, have
persisted against terrible odds, until
success was assured.

Sir Robert Peel of England, who re-
fuses to fight an American who calls
him liar and swindler, because the
American is not his equal socially, is
not such stickler for the proprieties
as@he assumes to be. One surmises
that, anyhow, because he refuses to
return borrowed money, steals pictures
that belong to the estate Of his prede-
cessors, and has written a bad book
wherein he is chiefly successful in con-
Tossing himself a scoundrel and ped
dler of other peoples condolences.

''In a brave coach, drawn by shining

his wooden leg banded with silver. He
wears carefully curled peruke, and
holds his hat upon his knee, in order
to court the cool sea breeze that fans

in state beside him, is, in their staid
and phlegmatic community, accounted

out from her native Paris, and her silk
en- hood is worn over frizzled and DOW

high-heeled shoes, her rings, bracelets
and lockets, with the gorgeously bound
book OF devotiOns suspended by gol-
den chain to her waistband-may be

The opposition to the press brought
out by the press-gag bill at Albany is
astonishing. But for the press very
few Of these opponents of legitimate
business would ever have been heard
of; and their impotence at the right
of fair as we'll as unfair criticism shows
a weakness that belongs to few bodies

the press in politics is perhaps not as
great as has been claimed; but there
