When he has mapped out the trips, he
teleSraphS the officials of all the rail-
| roads to ask If they can pick the presi-
dents train up at this point at that
time and take it through to the other
station at such an hour. This schedule
includes all the important stops, with
an allowance of five or ten minutes for
each daylight station on the route.
When the railroads agree to the sched-
ule. it is finally delivered to the presi-
dent.
You see, the president personally has
very little voice in the matter He
must pass through certain places Ell
route to his destination. Public senti-
ment demands that he stop for five
minutes here and for a half hour there.
Between these stops the speed capac-
ity of the railroad must be considered,
and the president seldom travels at the
highest rate. for fear of accident. AT
the end of the route the president has
to go through a programme of speech
making and dining and sightseeing ar
ranged for him by the local commit
tee.
President Harrison and President
Cleveland always took newspaper cor
respondents with them on their jour-
neys. President Mckinley, so far has
refused to do so, and his secretaries
have made up a report of the incidents
or the trips TO be given to the press,
with copies of the presidents speeches
at the large cities where the presidents
train stops. The speeches are not pre-
pared, except for important occasions.
The president has his own stenog-
rapher take note of what he says in his
impromptu speeches, and then carefully
revises the manuscript. All this bust
ness is handled for him by his private
secretary, George B. Cortelyou, who
always accompanies him.
The president chooses the members
of his party. With the exception of
the train crew, every man or woman
aboard is his guest. One feature of the
expense of the journey the president
usually pays for. 1t is the provisioning
of his car 1t is no small part of the
cost of a trip. for in much of the
sparsely settled western country
through which President Mckinley
must necessarily pass on his next trip.
he will breakfast and dine on the train.
1t is matter of pride with the car
cook to put an elaborate meal before
the president three times a day, so
when the car is stocked the best of
everything is taken aboard. But even
that is not a very serious expense to
a man who lives rent free on a salary
of $4,000 ayear.

lay sick in bed, her family heard her

to find her in a nervous. frightened

such a thing was impossible. But later

like a pistol bullet, and as the plant
loves to grow on hillsides and on emf
nences, the distance these vegetable
bullets travel before touching the
ground is very great. When the num-
Der of plants is large and they all shoot
off together, mimic battle takes place
which must be alarming indeed to the
small animals in the neighborhood.
One can imagine the CONSERVATION of
the squirrels and the birds during the

If one of these bullets We're to hit a

PLANTS THAT SHOOT BULLETS
Mimic Battles Do Take Place Be-
tween Wistaria Vines.

Many common garden plants shoot
bullets; not as big nor as hard as those
shot from a gun. but they go quite as
far and are as effective proportionately
If the plants which shoot them were
as big as a gun, these vegetable bullets
might do great damage. AS it is. bat

which the commandments are fierce
enough while they last. The common
wistaria has been known to shoot a
bullet over fifty feet.
This curious property is the result
of natures effort to scatter the seeds
as far as possible. Many plants have
seed pods which are held. so to speak,
in a state of tension. AS the plant
grows its fibres become stretched, I'M

To arrange the schedules for a presi-

he could arrange TO take the president
safely around the world on forty-eight

wants to make long journey, he US
ually calls Mr.. Boyd in for consulta-
ton as an expert. Mr.. Boyd looks up
the regular schedules of all the roads to
be covered and calculates the running
time of their trains. He has to bal

Preparations Along the Road When the Nations Chief Mag

less PreSident-Ceyeland Was Stay-at-home

George Washington was the original
travelling president; and in his day it
was no small undertaking to get about
the country. He set an example for
his successor by trying to become ac-
quainted with the country and its peo-
pie between the sessions of congress.
Two summers ne spent in his private
carriage going into New England and
through the south to achieve this OBJ
ject.
1t is only in recent years that Presi-
Dental journeying has been made spec
tacular. The early presidents could
travel about without being rnobbed.
Jackson and Taylor walked the streets
OF Washington and stopped 70 CHAT
with a friend like any other citizen,
and when they travelled no one thought
of standing gazing at them or of fore
ing himself upon them for a hand
shake. Then the president of the
United States could travel as simply
and as ostentatiously as he pleased.
Now he goes in a special train and the
band at every crossroads station plays

a mouthpiece at one end and a wire
netting at the other. Inside the net
ting is a small portion of powdered
charcoal in little net cell. When the
charcoal end of the tube is inserted in
the water the germs are not allowed
to pass. and the charcoal frees the
water from all impurities which may
be contained in it. The tube acts as a
straw through which the water is
drawn pure and clear. 1t is a conven-
lent way to drink from a brook when
riding through the country. and the
filter is a great safeguard against all
possible impurity.

hauling the presidents special. 1t was
repaid to him later-and that is about
as near as president of the United
States has come to paying fare in a
long time.
When President Cleveland made his
first trip west. he paid fare for HIM
self and all the members of his party.
The interstate commerce law had just
gone into effect and he was afraid of
being criticised for violating it. But
the five or six first-class tickets which
his private secretary bought did not
pay for the fine special train that he
used.
Hauling the presidents special is an
expensive undertaking. On most roads
it means side-tracking all other bust

railroads once put every freight car on
sidetracks all night because the presi

with all other solidly woven goods
serve but as the humble foundation for
that universal parasite of dress, white
lace.
Klondike silk is hardly more than a
rich, satiny, soft faille, picked out with
irregular splashes of white and dull
gold on a steely blue ground. Not a
very acute intellect but can appreciate
the humor of the manufacturer, whose
novel silk suggests the snow and gold
nuggets of the hard northern land. Ec-
centric as this is, the strange silk is a
strong favorite in polite and luxurious
society. 1t produces snowy effect
dropped as an overdress upon lace or
chiffon, and tribute of interest must
be paid the lace scarf drapery that has
ever widening power.
A Royal Scarf.
Queen Margot scarfs the dressmakers
christen them, in honor of the queen of
Italy, who once this spring. in angry
haste, tied a priceless scarf over her
shoulders to conceal the ugly finish of
an evening bodice that she had no time
to change for a state ball. The Offend
ing body was of white chiffon and the
queen, in veXed inspiration, SO twisted
the scarf into trimming for the dec
olletage, leaving long filmy ends fall
ing to her knees, since she dared not
cut the lace, and knew not how else to
dispose of it, that she set afioat in one
evening a fashion.
Scarfs of Bourbon lace, or Briton net.
worked in lace braid patterns, are sold
in lengths applicable TO the decoration
of evening gowns, and for slim women
they are quite heaven-sent treasures.
Under all these net, gauZe and lace
applications, no goods gives at better
result than the mushroom satin re-
ferred to. An eXemplification of its
stout service was noted in ball toilet,
the tailed skirt of which was cut from
this peculiarly flesh white satin. and
bore to the knees a torrent of small
