Why isn't q wrinkle a nick of time?
Why isn't a pony of brandy a fiery

Why does the walking delegate usual

Why does a man like to be mistaken

Why are the affairs of others always

Why isn't it superstitious to pick up

MAKAROFF's ICE BREAKER.
Russian Admiral Says He Can Break
His Way to the North Pole.

Russian Admiral Says He Can Break
His Way to the North Pole.
Admiral Makaroff of the Russian
navy has been a firm believer for years
in the efficacy of ice breaking machines.
Russia has no ports, except on the Black
sea, that are open in winter. Makaroff
has contended that there is no reason
why the country should be deprived for
half the year of the commercial sea
routes. He has pinned his faith to ice
breakers, and his idea Of what an ice
breaker should be was put into concrete
form by the Armstrong shipbuilding
firm Of England last year. The affair
was launched late last fall and was
lowed away at once to the Baltic sea to
keep some of the Russian ports open
this winter, and especially to keep st.
Petersburg open to navigation. If it
succeeds, the intention is to use it next
summer to clear the way for a CONNER
cial feet that will sail from the Atlantic
into arctic waters for the Yenisei river,
Siberia.
No very clear description Of the Ma
ksroff machine has been given out, but
it is said to be built on the general lines
Of some Of the ice breakers now in use,
but is an improved and heavier type.
The ice breaker in use at some of the
Baltic ports Of Germany is an oval
shaped and very heavy construction Of
steel, which, in spite Of its weight,
floats without difficulty. In front it
curves gradually upward go that it can
run up on the ice, which 1t breaks by its
weight. In the rear is a wedge shaped
i~ndentation, in which the bow of the
steamer that pushes it is inserted. The
appliance is securely attached to the
vessel by chains and steel fixtures. The
enthusiastic Makaroff is confident that a
practicable ice breaker weighing 30, 900
tons may be built on his model. He
says that with such a machine he could
break his way to the north pole, and
that the attempt will be made just as
soon as he has proved the efficiency Of
his machine for less gigantic achieve
ments. New York Sun.

THREE SONGS


A poet in the rosy prime
And blithe and dewy morn of time,
When song was natural as breath,
Three songs sent forth to fight with death
And one he made to please the crowd.
1t pleased them. and his praise was loud:
It pleased them greatly for a day,
Aud then its music died away.
And one he made to please the few.
1t lived a century or two;
Twas sung within the halls of kings,
Then vanished with forgotten things.
And one he made to please himself,
Without a thought Of fame or pelf,
But sent it forth with doubt and fears,
And it outlasted all the years.
No other song has vital breath
Through endless time to fight with death
Than that the singer sings apart
To please his solitary heart.

FISHING IS A NEW FAD FOR WO-
MEN.

Angling is not, strictly speaking, a
feminine amusement. Man, who IS
given to overestimating his own worth
and charms and often imagines him
self unduly sought after, sometimes re-
fers to the supposed Vaccinations OF
designing females as angling for a
husband" That is not the kind OF
angling that this article has to deal
with but the placid sport that made
happy the wholesome soul of Mr.. Izaak
Walton.
Women are supposed to be particu-
larly untitled for this sport, owing to
a lack of that contemplative tempera-
ment which can be quiet and happy all
day with no other solace than fishing
rod and a flask of that subtle elixir
sometimes known as "tanglefoot." In
other words, women are supposed to be
unable to hold their tongues; Islander
disproved to the extent of many col
umns since women have taken to writ
ing for the press.

ROYALTIES HAVE QUEER HOB
BIES.

Queen Victoria's hobby is gardening,
and she is passionately fond of dogs
and ponies, her especial favorite. being
her old black pony Jessie, according to
a recent chronicler. Her Majesty is
also great lover of bullfnches and
has several of them, whose pretty
tricks and charming piping give her
immense pleasure. To insure the safe
ty of these feathered pets it is forbid
den for any one in the royal household
to have a cat, at least any one whose
apartment is at all near the Queens.
The Princess of Wales has a great
liking for lace. Her collection, which
has some wonderful specimens, is
worth $4,000.
The Duchess of York has one Of the
most interesting collections Of post
cards on record. It has been contrib
uted to by the sovereigns Of every land
where post cards are used, the German
relations of her royal highness supply
ing by far the greater number.
The dowager queen of Portugal is
remarkably fond of shooting, and
spends much time at her country place
on the seaboard at Caldas, where she
amuses herself by firing from high
window at bottles placed in the sea for
the purpose. She is said to be an ex-
cellent markswoman.
The Duke of Edinburgh is an ardent
stamp collector, and possesses one of
the finest collections in the world. His

1t is matter CT practice and skillful

To learn to handle fly rod takes CON

rudiments of fly fishing are acquired
and the fisherwoman, donniRg her fish
ing clothes, goes out 10 lure the tooth

Books have little idea Of how to fish,
neither do tackle bakers catalogues

Deep sea fishing or sea fishing of any
kind is less fashionable, perhaps, be-
cause it is less English. Happy is the
girl who is invited as a house guest
where fishing is a part of the recrea-
ton. Nothing gives a man so much

BELTS-SHAPED BELTS.
Begin with belts.
What is it that makes the women's
waists in many of the fashion plates
look so much smaller than the waists
of women in real life? Is it that the
waist line is disproportionately small?
Not always. Oftener the belt is shap-
ed to fit No artist who understands
his work depicts woman with belt
going straight around; it dips in front.
And how many women do you see
with belts that are shaped? A few.
Those who can patronize dressmakers
who are artists, and such as have
thought of the why. 1t does not re-
quire heaps of money to dress well; it
takes judgment.
Look at the group of waists illus
trated with this account. Every one

She should understand what raises
or depresses the chest line.
She ought to learn what length in
sleeves is ungainly, and that which in
skirts is awkward
and to that end must the faculty Of
comparison be cultivated. No person
may say to a woman: This is pretty;
that is ugly. l know why. and you
never can" She is able to learn-even
as you and |, as Kipling says. The
process is interesting and simple, gone
about trustingly. 1t is mere matter
of comparison; incidentally, of COM
pilation. Let every woman make her
own costume BOOK, clipping what ap-
peals to her wherever she sees it-un-
less that should be in another's volume,
which is a misdemeanor-and pasting
it on to her pages, with appropriate
comments, as:
This is an ugly collar, for such and
such q reason"
Here is such back to a skirt as
seems incredible, for, look you, the line
OF the form is disagreed with"
Or, as happens with the present
modes: This skirt back is immodest,

The exercise of the perceptive facul-
ties can find no greater common pleas
ure than in the estimate of woman's
dress. There is JOY in finding rea-
sons for these so-called vanities which
exceeds any mere contemplation of the
styles.
So get to your self a Dress Book. And
buy for it common paper, such as was
mentioned at the outset. Do this for
several reasons. 1t is inexpensive; five
cents buys lot. Keeping that size in
mind, it always is possible to find more
pages at short distance and in the most
distant country post Offices. Thus one
may be adding always to her Dress
Book, though summering in the remote
parts, where Sunday supplements, with
fashion hints and Others things, do not
penetrate before Tuesday.
After six months or year you have
your Dress Book bound-a most use

Are you tired Of cutting out fashion
ideas, pinning them to the pin cushion
or tucking them into the mirror frame,
and losing them before you are ready
to use the hints?
Then buy five cents worth of white
or ecru wrapping paper Of the size
which VIII fold to make the book most
convenient and agreeable for yon to
handls. Eighteen inches by twelve are
about the dimensions of the white pa
per sold ordinarily by druggists, and
the measures give a page of excellent
proportions for fashion purposes.
What you will make of this paper
eventually is your own fashion, or bet
ter yet, costume book. Every good
housekeeper has her individual cooking
guide. No one volume ever written is
