not long ago some of the ladies Of

dressing the princess, said: What do

the men should monOpOliZe it? DO
you believe ii to be as cOrrupting to

it iS?'
The princess smiled. Il cannot de-

ings of the question:" she said gently,
"but | have noticed that men who
use tobacco to excess always speak
of themselves as slaves to the habit
and declare that it is impossible to

themselves from customs which they
declare are tyrannies should vOlun-
tarily put On Il yoke which most men

The opal is no longer considered of
evil omen by those who are the best i'll
formed. 1t has become popular to be-
lieve that instead of i'll luck the opal
carries with it the best of luck and
happiness in its highest form. Indeed,
1t is now considered the token Of
mutual love, burning brightly in all the
colors of the rainbow, 1t is the gift of
lover to sweetheart, the symbol of an
eternal devotion, and of so devoted a
character as to show Itself in con-
stant and fiery flashes of beautiful
color.
To emphasize this romantic idea, the
opal is now cut in the form of a heart,
and the sentiment of a heart on fire
with love is one which appeals to all
lovers. This heart. when small enough,
is set in Il ring, but Australian Opals
have recently been imported of suf-
ticicnt size to permit of their being
used in II simple gold frame as a pend
ant for the lOrgnette chain. These
opal hearts are also used for the cen
ters Of brooches.

There are numerous excuses for the
pronunciation of the word route, and
a man may hardly go amiss to choose
his own style. Down south they say
always rowt. In the north, among the
educated classes, we hear root. Here
also we hear. lower down, especially
among the hyphenated Americans, rut.
The Irish, even big folk, say rut. The
original Webster gives the prOnuncia-
tion as rOwt, with an admission Of
root. We have adopted root because
Of French leaning. The word rut,
meaning a deep track in a roadway,
cut by the rim Of n wheel, is simply a
contraction of route and rout. The
Century dictionary says root or rowt,
preference for root. We also say
rootine for routine; why not therefore,
root for route? Rowtine would sound
funpy.-New York Press.

Army of Women Ministers.

There are today about 300 women
ministers in the United States. In
America the ministry is being more
used by women as il profession than
the law. The great value of women
ministers in America is for scattered
parts that cannot possibly afford to
support Il man. They can maintain a
woman minister.
The chief opposition to women pas
tors comes from ministers of the poor
er and least qualified class. OF course,
the older and more conservative min
listers, bishops and the like, do not look
with much pleasure on woman in
the pulpit. But many congregations in

THE GREEDY CATFISH.
His Eating Capacity as Wonderful
as His Hold on Life.

The catfish belongs to an ancient
type not yet fully made into fish, and
hence those whose paired fins are all
properly fastened to the head, as his
are not, hold him in well merited
scOrn. He has no scales and no bright
cOlOrs. His fins are small and his head
and mouth are large. Around his
mouth are eight long "smellers,"
tleshy feelcrs, that he pushes out as
he crawlS along the bottom in search
of anything that he may eat. AS he
may eat anything, he always finds it.
His appetite is as impartial as that of
goat. Anything, from dead lam
prey or n bunch of suntish eggs to
piece of tomato can. is grateful to
him.
In each of the fins, which represent
his arms, is long. sharp bone. with
q Shiny surface and n serratcd edge.
These are fastened by ball and sock
ct joint, and whenever the fish is
alarmed the bone is whirled over and
set in place; then it sticks out stitlly
on each side. There is another such
bone in the fin on the back, and when
all of these are set there Is no tisn
that can swallow him.
When he takes the hook, which he
surely will do if there Is any hook to
be taken, he will swallow it greedily.
AS he Is drawn out of the water he
sets his three spines and laughs to
himself as the boy pricks his fingers
trying to get the hook from his stom-
ach. This the boy is sure to do, and
because the boy of the Mississippi
valley is always fishing for catfish is
the reason why his fingers are always
sore. The catfish Is careless of the
presenl and sure of the future. After
he is strung on a birch branch and
dried in the sun and sprinkled with
dust and has had his stomach dug out
to recover the hook, if he falls into the
brook he will swim away. lie holds
no malice and IS ready to bite again
at the first thing in sight.-Popular

CHINESE COURT HISTORIANS
They May Write the Truth, For 7 Thei.
work Is Secret.

There are court historians in China,
as there are in other countries, but
there is one striking difference, and it
lies in the fact that the work of the
Chinese court historians does not see
the light until the reigning dynasty
comes to an end.
In this way these Celestial historians
have an opportunity TO describe most
truthfully the virtues and vices of the
valorous rulers and the real signiti-
canoe Of the events which take place
during their regime. They can write
what they please without fear of cen
sure, for they know that their work
will not be published as long as the
reignng dynasty lasts.
This has been the rule for more than
1000 years, the first court historian
having been appointed by the impe-
rial house Of Han, which reigned from
2O6 B. c. until % y. d.
The duty of these historians is to
write plain accounts of all the events
that occur during their tenure of of
fee. At regular intervals their com
pleted work is taken from them and is
locked up In an iron safe or vault.
There it remains until the first member
Of n new dynasty ascends the throne.
1t IS then given with all the other
histories in the vault to the court
historian. who is then living, and from
the mass of documents he is expected
to prepare truthful history of the
dynasty which has just expired. The
present dynasty has been reigning
since 1910 and consequently no court
history has been published since that
date.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

The Negro mt Driving n Bargain.


There is some excuse for the negroes
tendency to lie and steal. Always in
fault, or assumed to be, he has become
an adept ut excuses, and lying Is part
Of his nature. He runs through every
grade of falsehood and deceit, but
hardly Il word that he utters is strictly
true. Believing that he has some claim
stantly deviSing schemes to get it, and
he never misses an opportunity to take
an advantage-Or anything else. The
white man seeks as eagerly to take
advantage Of the negro. Both lay
truth and honesty out of business and
even out of non commercial affairs.
Testimony in court is a notorious farce.
With sinners wearing Oh their per-
sons garments or iewelry that are the
proceeds of questionable or dishonest
transactions, kneeling at Gods altar in
prayer for the other sinners who have
been despOilcd, there need be little
wonder that nobody has confidence in
anybody. Not only every negro, but
every white man, has to secure his
merchant with a mortgage If he wants
credit. This credit and mortgage sys-
tenn leads each party to take every
advantage of the other; cotton is
bought AMI goods are sold at ruinous
prices; and the whole business world
Is like a carnival of ravenous beasts
