nromedaries That Smoke Cigars

Dromedaries are said to be part1c-
ularly fond Of tobacco smoke, and can
be made to do almost anything while
under it's influence. Travellers, it is as
serted rely more on tobacco smoke
for tneir control over these huge
beasts than anything else. When
travelling on long Journeys, the drome-
daries are in many cases required to
travel night and day without rest, and
they are kept UP to their task by smoK-
ing cigars. The driver carries trlan-
gular piece of wood, which is pierced
at one poiut like a cigar holder. This
is inserted in the mouth of the animal
the cigar being lit and pressed into
the hole. The dromedary closes its
ewes and puffs away through its nos
trils until the cigar is burned away.
The indulgence appears to refresh it..
and the keeper has no difficulty in per-
suading the animal to p!od onward
without any further rest.

should have fatty refused to believe
that women voluntarily gave up their
chances of becoming wives and moth

useless life of the bachelor about

that the bachelor woman can ever
become a recognized feature Of cur
social life. She must ever remain a
phenomenon, selfish and self-center-
ed. calling for the pity rather than
the envy of those who keep to the
beaten track" Dear, dear! Why all
this excitement? The argument is a
little one-sided. It is very easy to
call people selfish, though why that
epithet and that Of useless" should
be applied to woman who supports
herself without burdening her rela-

be backed by proof. I think that il

Clamoring for Entrance to Institutions
Which Cannot Acm.k Them.
The female cry for collegiate educa.
tion is so general and the facilities for
meeting the cry are SO limited that the
College Women's Club Of New York Is
endeavoring to secure the reinstate-
ment Of Evelyn College, the annex OF
Princeton University, which, for lack
OF funds, closed it's doors year ago.
Amazement may well be felt at the
rapidly increasing demand among
women for higher education. Thirty
years ago only tws colleges for women
existed, Elmira and Vassar, Mount
Holyoke being then only seminary.
Elmira's first graduating class num-
bered seventeen, while Vassar's could
boast only four learned young bacn-
elors of art. Today single class CT
Vassar numbers over 200 students.
and, notwithstanding the erection IN
1893 of Strong hall, and in 1897 OF Ray
mond hall, both large dormitorles, also
the additional accommodations pro-
vided in the main building by the re-
cent erection of Rockefeller recitation
hall, and the presidents and several
professors houses, another new dorml-
tory must be built at once to make
room for the candidates coma 'antly ap-
plying for admission. And this state

educational stages, rose like the pace
nix from the ashes OF It's disastrous
fire two wears ago. Five new and
handsome dormitories built last season
are now occupied, but, although no
new candidates have been accepteo
since last April, because OF lack OK
space, these buildings are full to over
flowing, and two more halls coulo
easily have been filled by the rejected
students. Wellesley, with its I'M
