did not accede to Mrs. Collins re-
quest they, the principal cattlemen of
the West, would refuse to ship an
other hoof over his road. Mrs. Col
Inns got her pass and has had one each
year since, and is today the only wom-
an so favored.
One would suppose that with the
management Of several ranches upon
her shoulders Mrs. Collins would find
plenty to keep her busy, but such is
not the case. She declares that there
is any quantity of time which she
finds it almost impossible to dispose
of, and she finds vent for her surplus
energy in various ways. Repeatedly
she visited the new mining region
near st. Mary's Lake, Mon, and
while there invested in several fine
copper claims and located town site
on the banks of the lake.

When $1,000 Looked Big.

Divide anything up into pairs and
you magnify it. A certain wise man
took this way to give his wife an idea
of money Her purchases were enor-
nous. 1t happened one day that her
eye fell upon a magnificent ring and
she coveted it. 1t cost $1,000, but
what was $1,000 to Der in comparison
to the ring? OF course her husband
consented to the purchase. What else
could a dutiful, affectionate husband
do? But he tried this method of edu-
eating his wife concerning the great
price of the ring. He instructed his
banker to send the $1,000 in small
pieces pennies, dimes, quarters. In
came the money, bagful after bagful.
She never had such an idea of $1,000
before. When the money was piled
before her it alarmed her; the price
of the ring went up a hundredfold,
and was considered at once an extrav-
agance WHICH she of her own option
abandoned.

Many people will have seen the
charming portrait which has been
taken of Wilhelmina in the national
dress of the Friesland women. To
realize how wise was the decision of
the regent mother to encourage her
daughter in her fondness for the
handsome peasant dress, one must
understand what an important place
in the lives and affections of the Dutch
people of the present day their ma
tional dress holds. In all parts of
the country the old styles of peasant
dresses are still to be seen. On the
brows of the women of iceland Won
derful headdresses of silver and gold
are worn by the Friesland women.
There are no more conservative
people in the matter of dress and fam
ily customs than the Dutch, and their
little queen has become doubly dear
to them through her devotion to the
quaint national dress and her love for
many other of the time honored GUS

The food of the Philippines is chief
ly rice and fish, eaten without knives
and forks or chopsticks-with the
fingers. The national dish is tuba,
palm beer, made by cutting off the
points of the great flower stems of the
cocoanut palms, and collecting the
sweet juice which flows from the
wounds. Bamboo cups are hung in
the trees to collect the juice, and long
bamboo poles are laid from the crown
of one palm to another, so that the
tuba gathered may pass from one tree
to another without descending to the
ground. These roadways, frequently
sixty or seventy feet above ground,
look like great spiders webs and need
the skill of ropewalker to use them.
The juice rapidly ferments and is col
ored and made bitter with the bark of
the mangrove root.-Scientitic Ameri-

DOESN'T HURT THE SURGEON.
Half-Told Truth With Reg ard to Minor
Operations With the Knife.

Half-Told Truth With Regar to Minor
Operations With the Knife.
A New York surgeon connected
with one of the post graduate medical
schools of that city was one day on
the point of lancing felon for one of
the students, young southern ply
sician. The patient paled at sight of
the knife. ut won't hurt" observed
the surgeon with sympathetic smile.
II sometimes think" he added, "that
it is we'll for a surgeon to feel the
point of the knife at least once in his
life.
81 saw my first hospital service in
this city with DR.. 81" he went on,
"and no better surgeon was then to
be found in America He had large
dispensary clinic and rarely day
passed that one or more cases of felon
did not appear.
TT won't hurt, was always his
comforting assurance to the patient.
'The old doctor was very irritable
if patient made any outcry or bother
over the lancing of felon. Put
your finger down there, indicating the
edge of the table, and keep still!' he
commanded; and truth to tell, pa-
tients, as rule, made little fuss.
Thine passed on, and in the muta-
tions of life DR.. S. had a felon on his
left fcrefager, and it was a bad one.
He poulticed it and fused with it fol
about week, and walked the fool
with pain at night, At last it became
unendurable, and he went to his as
sistant surgeon and said, nervously:
" L say, doctor, will you take look
at my fnger?'
''1he assistant surgeon looked and
remarked gravely. That ought tc
have been lanced before
'Possibly-but' said DR.. S., and
then with long breath: Perhaps
you'd better lance it now.'
" Certainly, said the assistant sur
geon. Put your finger on the table. ,
" DIR. S. complied, and with face
as white as paper watched the knife
BE gentle, he cautioned; that's an
awful sore finger
1T won't hurt, remarked the as
sistant surgeon, and the sharp steel
descended.
There was howl of agony from
DIR. S., and with his finger in his
other hand, he danced about the room
crying. 'Ohl Obi Ohl'
"' Why remarked the assistant
surgeon, L have heard you tell pa
tients hundreds of times that it didn't
hurt to lance a felon.
'..'No doubt, no doubt you havep
groaned DR.. S. But that depends on
which end of the knife a man is at. I"

Very rarely, indeed, does a British
soldier allow fear to overcome his
sense of duty; but some old veterans
will occasionally admit that he has
known perhaps one such instance ;and
in reply to the question: 'How is it
we never read of such cases?" he win
answer: "One dead man is a small
loss to regiment. Besides, one man
running off may cause another to fol-
low him, and panic may thus set in.
Before any one has time to think
about it or issue an order, depend
upon it, one of his comra les, for the
honor of the regiment, puts bullet
through him"

In South Dakota most successful
results are being achieved with arte.
sian wells. Their use for supplying
water for irrigation doubles and triples
the yield of the land. A single well
over 1000 feet deep is cited, which
gives sufficient water for nearly two
square miles of land. Other wells are
but 100 feet deep. Even the climate
of region may be modified by the
surface distribution of such quantities
of water, and the consequent vegetable
growth covering the otherwise almost
barren areas.

A FOOL AND A WOMAN.

Until there came day
When he fell in love with her
And acted in such way
As to fill his astonished friends
With feelings of dismay.
Men used honor him
For the good sense that he naA
But he fell in love with her
And carried on like mad,
And people saw, amazed,
And said it was too bad.
Then she that had never cared
And had turned to other men
Would deign to smile sometimes
For, being a woman, when
She had made fool of the man
She rather liked him then.

City Counselor Moss took the ground that
there was no power in the charter to grant

legal proposition by Messrs Magruder.
Homer and Owens, who, to show their sim
certify in the matter agreed that the ordin-
ance should not become effective until its
legality had been tested in the courts at
the expense of the company.
Mr.. Moss stated during the discussion
that he would favor the ordinance If its
legality was established by providing for
the test case, but when the vote was taken
opposed it.
In speaking of the defeat of the fran
chise, Mr.. Homer. counsel for the company,
said: II cannot comprehend the action Of
the members of the council voting against

manifested by large number of citizens
of Annapolis to have the electric road con-
