some other fellow.
I met one of the ''other fellows on
the boat going home. His only daugh-
ter is in New York trying to be some
body" and do something" He sends
her an allowance and large one every
month. 1t isn't trial, for he mas
goodly store to draw from.
But he wants her companionship; he
misses the delightful camaraderie of his
walks and drives. He likes TO talk over
his favorite books with her. However,
she's a bachelor girl in New York earn
ing her own living"
And she could be somebody right
here at home, and she could do some
thing That is IL she were willing to
do the work and the only work for
which she is fitted-to take her mothers
place in her fathers household.
1T seems to me, said the old gen
tleman as we boarded the car. that
the fault lies in the way we educate
our girls If she really had to take care
of herself, don't believe she could, yet
I've spent thousands on her education"
It seems to me, 1 said. thinking 1t
over, that she could take care of her
self if she were willing to be honest.
For the fault lies not only in the edu-
cation. It's all well enough to learn
about artists and authors, painters and
musicians but the Lord meant some of
us for stenogTapherS and SeamstresseS.
And we can ENJOY the Work OF otnerS,
though our own be Of different na-
ture.
And the society girl who is writing
''milliner" after the name that has been
written scores Of times in the list OF
fashionables at an affair has simply
been honest with herself about her own
capabilities.
There isn't any use hunting for a
royal road for breadwinners. The mil
liner who was a society girl says take
the path for which you have the most
ability, even If it doesn't be in the
world of art.
And by the covers of the Blue Book.
I think she is right.

Lieutenant William Carlisle re-

young, han dsome and happy brother,

was ready to fight anything in Ma
Mia or elsewhere when duty call
him. He tried to get his brother
William to come along, and depart
ed from here with laugh on his
handsome face, and his magnificent
figure covered with lei.
Then came letter from Manils,
full of life and happiness, and the
boy urged the brother to join him
and try his fortune in Manila.
To-day the last chapter was
closed. aud Carlisle was told that
the young and we'll beloved brother
had succumbed to the fever in Ma

SOMETHING ABOUT TIDES.

According to the law of universal CRAWL
tatlon, the moon attracts matter which
stands near to her more strongly thai
that which is more remote.
II follows that the attraction of the
ocean. at the side of the earth which is
nearest to the moon, must be greater tina
that exercised on the solid earth itself,
Hence there is a tendency for the sea
to depart from it's natural spherical shape
and to bulge toward the moon.
SO far the matter ms simple, but it is
perpleXing to many that the moon should
apparently repel the water lying on the
further side of the earth.
This action, however. is not due to any
actual repulsion from the moon, but re-
suits from the fact that on the further
side the moon must attract the solid earth
more strongly than it does the water.
On the nearer side the moon pulls the
water away from the earth, and on the
further side she pulls the earth away
from the water, thus producing an appar-
ent reDulsion of the water to an extent
equal to the attraction on the other side.
