Their Redeeming Feature is Their
 Personal Cleanliness.
 The aristocratic Philippine matFon and her daughters indulge in no greater bodily exercise, # they can help 1t, than that required for driving. or shopping. But the peasant woman shares her, husbands work, whateTer 1t may De, laboring at the blow behind an ungainiy carabao -buffalo) in the paddy-feld, or helping to pole a huge lorcha, or eoeoanut raft, up or down the river, besides attending to her domestic cares. And I take pleas ure in saying that, whatever it's pro prletor's rank or station, the native philippine nipa hut is invariably a marvel of neatness and cleanliness as 10 it's interior: far superior in this re- spect to the average dwelling house, be 1t that of merchants clerk or that Of the governor general So far as the latter are concerned a decent servant. girl, such as are employed in America ana England, would not be content to remain in one two days. Hundreds of girls are employed in the great cigar factories, and others in the convents labor to weave the far-famed pima lace or the Philippines. several at a time squatting on the floor around a single frame, picking and manipulating with deft fingers the infnitesimally delicate hbers Sometimes they work for months to complete a single manti1la or handkerchief These native women are rarely employed by the European residents as domestic servants, except m the capacity of lady's maid or cur dren nurse, and even these positions are often occupied by boys. They are very unreliable, and the utter absence of the sense of gratitude, so character istic of the entire Philippine race, rem ders 1t an almost hopeless and very ex- asperating task to attempt to train them as servants. Their only redeem ing feature is their sense of absolute personal cleanliness, but in spite of this many European women prefer to go to the expense and trouble of i'm porting Chinese anna from Hong Kong or Canton rather than to intrust her children to the care of a native girl; although when in her own ca pacity as mother, the Filipina, so faz as observation goes, leaves nothing to be desired Woman's Home Compan- ion

POPE FOR A DAY.
Leo's Successor wnl Reign for Twenty
 Four Hours.

L~o's Successor wnl Reign for Twenty
 Four Hours.
 When Pope Leo XIII. dies his imme- diate successor will be Cardinal Luigi 0reglia, Camarlingo of the Roman Catholic Church. He will not be called Pope, but according to the laws in force he will be Acting Pope until the new Pope is elected. The Vatican reg ulations decree that the election of the new Pope cannot take place until after the burial of the late Pope, which takes place ten days after his decease. In many instances the election is not completed for weeks or months, so that the Camarlingo may enjoy his papal power for long time Leo XIII. held the position of Camar1ingo Wher he himself was elected to che pontSf1- cate, but it does not seem probable that his Camarlingo will succeed to the papal throne. 1t is the Camarlingo who formally declares the pope dead after tapping his forehead three times with the silver hammer. He it is who breaks the seals and Ring of the Fish erman," and then assumes the diree- tion of the. Apostolic see until the new pope is chosen. The Camarlingo pre- sides over the sacred conclave of the cardinals having the election in hand. and keeps the key of the place of meet ing, so that none can enter or go out save with his consent. When the election is concluded he asks the new pontiff what name he intends to take. And after he has received the saluta- ton of the assembled cardinals it Is the Cardinal-Camarlingo who places on h$s finger the Ring of the Fisher man." He is. in fact, the actual suc- eessor of the pope, even though tem- porari'y.

It Is g. curious fact that night Is the time which nature utilizes for growth. Plants grow much more in the night than in the daytime, as can be proved any time by measurement.
 Measure vine at night, then meas. ure it again in the morning and the next night, and it will be found that the night growth is two or three times that accomplished during the day.
 During the day the plant is very busy gathering nourishment from va- 2ious sources. and during the night this raw material is assimilated into the plant life.
 The same fact is true of the a0imal creation. Children grow more rapidly during the night.
 In the day time, while the child is awake and active, the system is kept busy disposing of the wastes conse- quent on this activity; but during sleep the system is free to extend it's opera tions beyond the mere replacing of worn-out particles, hence the rapid growth.
