Doing One Night Stands
eeeeGGGGeeee&e

TT Asst act!" the call boy shouts
as he comes bounding up the
stairs three steps at time. "Last act!"
he yells on every landing, until at last
he boots at the chorus girls, who,
huddled together in a ten-foot room,
come out of their pen and follow him,
as though he was bell sheep, down the
winding stairs.
The prima donna gives daub of paint
to her cheek, and brush of the hare's
foot, before throwing herself on the
couch. There is no need for her to
hurry; who ever heard of prima donna
being discovered when the curtain goes
up, asks the Chicago Tribune.
Then the comedian, with big and
painted face, passes slowly along the
landing, and with eyes riveted on the
stone steps goes down the winding
stairs. AS he turns the last corner a
hand is laid on his shoulder, and he
looks up into the pretty face of girl
In gauze.
''Is your child better tonight" she
asks, as she draws a pink wrapper more
closely about her shapely form. ''1s
there anything can do?'
II am afraid there is nothing" the
comedian answers, his voice low and
sad. my little girl has stood the ia
tigue of travel bravely, but now she is
very, very sick, and am afraid shall
have to leave her hefe."
"Surely not alone?" the dancer asks,
putting out her hand, which he uncon-
sciously takes in his. ''Surely you will
not leave her alone?"

voice trembles as he speaks, II can only
comfort her by my presence; I cannot
pay for doctor then, nor can she have

The dancer draws her hand from his

out to him. 1T is not much, but it Will

He turns away and leans his head
against the iron railing.
"Coals of fret" he mutters. "Coals
which shall always burn!''
The dancer comes down few steps to

DfMcult to stov.

Experiments seem to show that a
large ocean steamer, going at 10 knots
an hour, will move a distance of two
miles after its engines are stopped and
reversed, and no authority gives less
than mile to a mile and half as the
required space to stop its progress.
The violent collisions in some cases
during fogs may thus be accounted for.

CAPS AND APRONS,
The Housemnid Should Always Look
Clean and Trim When
on Duty.

There is nothing more important, so
far as the elegance of house is con-
cerned, than to have the maids neatly
dressed.
: 1t is fatal to let domestics wash their
clothes, or part of them, at home. If
this is the case, there will be dreadful
lack of clean aprons and the cotton
dresses will be made to do duty for a
fortnight. All laundries will take serv-
ants washing at certain sum per
week. In the country one can often
get this done cheaply, especially if the
maids will wash their own collars and
cuffs and caps. In town it costs more,
but it is money well spent.
1t is imperative that maid should
have clean print dress every week,
and that it be we'll starched, or it will
not keep clean for any length of time.
The cook, especially in town, should
wear somewhat dark print, a deep
blue galatea being the best. This looks
very nice with a large holland apron
and white collar and cap.
, For morning wear large holland
aprons are the best, with bibs and
straps over the shoulders. A black
stuff gown should be worn in the aft
ernoon, with turnover collar and cuffs
and very large white apron. If there
is any demur about the caps, it will be
worth the mistress while to provide
them herself. The best caps are made
of frills of embroidered cambria, which
draw up with tape and can be pulled
out flat to be washed and ironed. These
are easily made, and all fear of the
maids appearing with dirty piece If
lace gathered up on their heads is
avoided. It must be. understood that
when the housemaid is out and the
cook has to answer the door she also
wears the same sort of costume.-Phil.

What Alaska Owes to the Candle Fish
When the Alaskan is showed in and
is without light he inserts the tail
of a candle fish into crack in the
table and torches match to it's nose.
It gives clear three-candle power
light. The backbone is largely formed
of phosphorus, which fully accounts
for the strength Of the flame and the
heat developed. The substitute for cod
liver oil retards rapid burning, as tai
low acts in an ordinary candle. The
fish is valuable as food. It may also
be used as substitute for cod-liver
oil, which, aiding the natural heat of
the body, serves AS a protection from
the severe cold: 1t is to be hoped that
scientists will discover a way by which
the skin of this fish may be made into
clothing and its backbone sharpened
into miners picks. -Philadelphia Sat

COMPANY F ALL RIGHT.

Colonel Lord reads a sharp lesson
to those Of the State militia who have
not volunteered to go to the front.
He claims that all the Companies
except Company F of Carson were
clamoring for a call to the front. The
Carson Company made no demands
to be ordered ont and made no prom
lses, yet it has furnised IS men for
the infantry and ? that left with the
cavalry. 1t has also at its own ex-
pense sent out its members for re

men over to Uncle Sam.

THE POLL TAX DECISION

From all sides comes the chorus of
approval that the mise able poll tax
law has been wiped off the Statute
book. The Sacramento Bee says:
In the State of Nevada there was a
blot on the Statute books in the shape
of a law prohibiting anyone from
voting who had not paid the poll tax.
At the instance of the Carson APPEAL
John Wilson. a printer employed on
hat paper, contested the law, with
the result that the Supreme Court
decided the law to be unconstituti-
onal.
Good for the APPEAL! The poll tax
is an iniquity in principle. 1t is bad
enough to have such an imposition
on our law books, but it was an ont
rage upon the American citizen to de-
prlve him of his vote because he did
not have So with him to settle
this State extortion.
Let our Governments, National
and State, See that wealth, corporate
and private, be forced to pay a little
more squarely its debts to the Gov
erument, and there will be no neces-
sity of squeezing the poll tax out of
the people.

HANG THE M.

The parade today helped todemon-
strate to the public the extent to which
the government had been cheated in
the matter of uniforms furnished to
the volunteers. The scoundrel who
deliberately cheats the government on
contracts IN time of war ought to
serve a long term in the State prison.
We suppose it is too much to expect
our generals to treat fraudulent con-
tractors as Wellington did in Spain.
We believe he was accustomed to
hang them, although it is due to the
contractors to say that he did not
have to hang many. Even a Spanish
contractor car take a hints. F.
Report.
If a few of these scurvy dogs were
hung there would be no more trouble.
The man who defrauds his country in
time of war deserves nothing but
hanging. One or two hangings
would put a stop to the whole in
iquitous business.
