From the Noveiist's Standpoint.

Woman suffrage is often said to be in the air One evidence is the entirely in cidental way in which the subject is frequently referred to in present day fiction. The hero in Paul Leicester Ford s successful novel Peter Stirling" thus expresses himself: Broadly speak.
 ing, all persons of sound mind are enti- tied to vote on the men and the laws which are to govern them. Aside from this, every ounce of brain or experience you can add to the ballot makes it more certain. Suppose you say that half the people are too ignorant to vote sensibly. Don't you see that there is an even chance at least that they will vote rightly, and if the wrong half carries the election it IS because more intelH- gent people have voted wrongly, lave not voted or have not taken the trouble to try and show the people the right way, but have left them to the mercies of the demagogue? If we grant that every man who takes care of himself has some brain and some experience, his vote is of some value, even if not high one. Suppose we have gold eagle and a thousand pennies Are we any better off by tossing away the coppers because each is worth so little? That is why l nave always advocated giving the fran chise to women. Ii we can add 10000, 600 voters to an election, we have added just so much knowledge to it, and made it just so much harder to mislead or buy enough votes to change results.

lighting the Mohmunds.

Private Lever of the Butfs tells two characteristics of the fight in which be was hit when General Jefery, with the mountain battery and escort, was hemmed in village all night by thou sands Of Mohmunds The wounded were lying under q wall exposed to torrents of rain and to showers of stones which the enemy hurled down at them from houses near. It seemed impossible that any relieving force could come to their aid before daybreak O. that the mere handful of Bluffs could hold out much longer Their ammunition was running short Then Lever heard one wounded officer ask another, "How many shots have you got in your revolver?'3 "Only two, tThen don't waste them, old chap; keep one for me, the other for yourself.
 When ammunition was so nearly ex- hausted that no orders were given to fire until the enemy could be distinctly seen, a sudden rattle of irregular fire was heard on one side of the village, followed by savage yells but no other sound. The few Bluffs holding a post in that direction stood with rifles leveled ready to fire volleys directly rush was attempted The eommotion came near or, and just as the nonoommissioned of- dcer in charge of that post had the command to present" on his lips the flame from native gun flashed on bristling steel British bayonets had been doing their grim work there in the darkness so silently that nobody thought friends were so near The relief had come The enemy gave way. and a min ute later Major Worlledge, with his companies of Sikhs and guides, entered the village, ge,-I.ondon News.

How You Bicycle In Holland.

There arc no restrictions of any sort that know of in Holland. You may ride any whore you want-on the towpath, the dikes or the brick streets. You can see more of the country from cycle than in any other way, as the roads are invariably higher than the canals or the railways, and you can ride from one end to tho oth CT of the most interesting part in day. In riding on towpaths, however, it is well to look out for tow and other ropes if you do not want to be suddenly swept into canal. From Rotterdam a most interest ing tour can be made to The Hague, Haar- lem, the dead cities of the Zuyder Zee, back down the great dike to Amsterdam thence to Dordreeht, and up the Rhine, il you like The children of chat country, it might be remarked, are flends incarnate and have European reputation for devil try As almost every body speaks more or less English, there is little trouble in get ting about. Holland and Austria Hungary are the most expensive countries next to England to travel in unless you are ae- qaainted with the ways and the language. Joseph Pennell in Harper's Magazine For April.

Demand For Reform earters.

Garters are gayer than ever before. No woman dreams of wearing pialn elastic bands to keep up her stockings nowadays. Indeed, garters are now made so many colored that they rival the fashionable hosiery itself when It comes to startling brilliancy. garter can come about as near marring or max ing a woman s happiness as any trlnlng accessory of her toilet. Women general ly, long ago, gave up the elastic band which held the stocking up below OF above the knee Health eulturists first told them that it was injurious. pre- venting perfect circulation, but the sex chung to it, with it's bejeweled buckles and beautiful bows of ribbon. Then the culturists told them that the round gar ter would spoil the shape of the leg and they dropped it like a bot cake ana adopted the suspender garter, or stocking supporter, as 1t is oftener called.
 The newest supporters are made of very broad and fancy silk elastic ln brilliant Scotch plaids or Roman stripes, or else plain elastic covered with rib bons that would shame Joseph's coat, put on full. The catches and side buckles are of white metal, silver, silver gilded and pure gold, and some of them arc studded with precious and semiprecious gems. One style fastens around the waist of the wearer by means of a satin belt matching in color the predominant ing tone of the elastic; the other fas- tens at the side of the corset with catch pins. Both methods are unsatisfactory. The waistband is warm in summer and destroys the lines about the waist. It IS indeed impossible for woman inclined to be stout. The other, if such length as to keep the stocking up properly, pulls on the corset and gives the wearer most uncomfortable, tired feeling to- ward the end of the day.
 All of these drawbacks have tend enoy to make woman conclude that, after all, her grandmother was right in declaring that the most satis- factory garter in the world was a string torn from the selvage of a piece of flannel and wrapped just loose enough for comfort and tight enough for con- venience about the stocking above or below the knee, 4 woman who will in- vent really artistic and at the same time comfortable stocking supporter will strike Klondike.

Women Are Good Tenants.

The change in the status of women in the business world within even ten years has been most marked in the atti- tude of renting agents and property owners toward them as tenants. Ten years ago it was extremely difficult for woman to hire house or fiat unless some man signed the lease and guaran- teed payment of the rent.
 Now all this is changed, and the homesiek stenographer, the bright busi- ness woman in any line, may enjoy Fall the comforts of home" under the roof of her town hired house., and real es- tate men are glad to get them for ten ants.
 Just exactly how women are viewed as tenants was aseertained by calls made upon agents handling some of the largest lists of residence property.
 "Do you rent houses or flats to wom- emf" was asked, and all without hesita- tion answered, "Yes. In point of fact, since 1893 so many flats and houses were vacated and such large number of apartments were built to be used as Worlds fair hotels that competition for tenants has become sharp and the re- striotions have been lessened until rents have fallen to such figure that four girls with an average income of but $8 a week may occupy six room, steam heated apartment, with gas range and hot water furnished, and keep house as cheaply as they could board and be far more comfortable.
 Not long since a booklet issued to ad. vertise newly built apartment house pointed out it's advantages as a residence for business women. In fact they have almost crowded the men altogether out of a large office building down town, where three floors are occupied hy them.
 Renting agents expressed themselves freely that, all things being equal, the woman in business life was regarded as a desirable tenant.
 Women generally Csk more in the way of repairs and improvements than do men, " said one agent, "but we are only too willing to rent to them, though we look very sharply as to their ability to pay the rent. No, we do not re- quire man s name on the lease. No one does now. ''-Chicago Times Herald.
 One of the very few old churches still standing and practically unchanged is St luke s at Smithville isle of Wight coun- y, Va. It was built In l632 as attested by the date on some of the bricks, under the superintendence of Joseph Bridger. whose descendants still live in the county md worship in the church. The records of the family, which are unbroken for 0 period of 150 years, establish the date of the building of the church, and are full Of interesting details of early colonial history. It appears that St Luke's was originally so well built and of such excellent ma terial that no repairs were made to it un- til 1737, 105 years after its completion. At that time it was ordered that Peter Wood ward do the shingling of the church with good eyp1ees shingles, of good substance and well nailed, foS TOO pounds of tobacco, 300 poands being now levied" It was again reshingled in 1891, 84 years later William B.
