PROFESSIONAL SHOE STRErCHER.

When a woman said she wanted a
pair of shoes. so says the New York
Sun, the hollow-eyed clerk did not ask,
What size, madam" but said, instead,
New or secondhand"
The woman hestitated. not quite
grasping the significance OF the
question. why, new, of course" she
said at length.
The reason / asked" said the clerk,
was that we have several pairs of
shoes of different sizes that have been
worn little, just enough to stretch
them, and | didn't know but what yon
would like pair that your feet would
slip right into and that you'd never
have any trouble with
The womans interest had plainly
got started by that time. Have you
any such?" she asked.
"A few pairs, as / just said,' replied
the clerk. They have been worn long
enough by professional shoe stretchers
to take the stiffness and newness away.
We are thinking of making these
stretched shoes a permanent and
prominent features of our stock. Why,
do you know" he continued, with In
creased earnestness; IF | had a foot
that | could expand or contract at will,
according to circumstances, | could
make a pile Of money by just trying on
shoes. Anybody who has ever endured
the torment incident to stretching a
new pair of shoes would be willing Co
pay 80 cents more a pair in order to be
relieved of the discomfort of getting
them set to the foot The custom of
offering stretched shoes to patrons has
already been introduced into several
stores in town and ii certainly ought
to become very popular. Judging by
present indications, it will not be long
until every shoe store of any pre-
tensions will employ people with feet
OF the standard sizes to wear new shoes
for day or so to break them in. 1t
Will certainly be a good investment.
for patrons will buy shoes oftener
when the horror of setting them has
been removed. and thus more money
VIII accrue to the dealer. Shoe
stretching is a calling that will not
permit its followers to tread on fiowery
paths of ease. but the possibility of
buying shoes that are comfortable
from the start opens up view OF
elysium for the wearer."

"freshwater" institutions. H 9 ex-.
presses the livellest satisfaction with
the results Of his beneficences. Speak
ing of one he says:
"Out in Colorado Springs is a college
to which hundreds of students flock
with consuming thirst for an educa-
ton. ALI What sturdy set those
fellows are! Well, this college is an
example of what l have said is the
typical history of the freshwater col
lege. 1t must have been almost thirty
five years ago when pitched camp al
most on its site in company with a
band of Ute Indians. There was an
Insignificant little hamlet on the spot
where the city of Colorado Springs
now stands. The settlement grew and
the inhabitants prospered. One day an
earnest and devoted Christian mission
airy came along. He read the hearts
of the people-or at least part of
them. Instantly he saw that the great
need of that community was a college.
Even the most well-to-do settlers
could not afford to send their children
hundreds of miles away to the nearest
big college. Among the more thought
full members Of the community his
ambition to build college there met
with a warm response and he went at
the project with will. In a way he
succeeded. | believe his institution
was at first called an academy, but
soon it joined the ranks OF freshwater
colleges. From the start it trained men
good, sound men--who became the
preachers, lawyers. merchants, editors,
school teachers, school commissioners
and legislators Of that country.
Finally it passed into the hands OF
a young man named Slocum. He was
full of good business snap and saw
he was the man to make that thing
go. | said to him: When you raise
$4,000 for the endowment of this
college will pay you $50, 900 in cash to
bring the total up to 5000, 0OO.'"
The upshot of the matter was that
Mr.. Slocum got the $4,000, and Mr..
Pearsons says that the college is every
thing that could be desired, and he in
stances others.

SIMPLE FARM PHONES.
How a Substantial System May be In

The organizer OF a successful farm

adjustable arm attached to transmitter.
The cheaper instruments, however
will last for years for farm work: they
are easy to handle and adjust. and car
ry sound perfectly provided the battery
is kept in working order. Too MANY
telephones should not be placed on one
circuit, or the talk will be weak. from
the resistance being excessive. One

three miles has ten instruments on il.

as II is wired with common No IL GAL

is needed to make the circuit only

found true of the bright inner corona
even up to where it was obscured by
the moon. These results were directly
opposed to those found in the case of
the prominences, the light of which is
not polarized. 1t is proved, Therefore,
by the pictures that tae continuous
spectrum, due to reflected light, is al
most wholly polarized, whereas the
bright line spectra, due to gasss in lae
prominences, are wholly polarized; in
other words, the light from the prom
inences is their own and not reflected
sunlight.
polariscope is used with a direct
vision spectroscope for obtaining spec
trum photographs with polarized ligb:
The spectrum photographs, with the
exception of one taken with the polar
iscope were obtained with one Rowland
refraction grating. The photographs
OBTAINED with the prismatic camera
are yet undeveloped.
Parts of the spectrum which had
good focus gave results never Detained

little prominences, and also line due

distinctly separated from it, the varia-
tlon in the appearance of the prom
inences in these lines being very wide.
In another plate the carbon bands, due
to cyanogen, are bright and appear dis
tinctly reversed.
Mr.. Jewell, at Griffin, Ca. was the
only one to obtain a view of the "F'
line reversing spectrum. At Griffin one
of the blue hydrogen lines was seen
nearly three minutes before second
contact, and quite a number of other
bright lines were seen later on. A
gradual change was seen in the Fraun-
hofer spectrum as the suns crescent
narrowed and shortened. and beauti-
full view was obtained of the bright.
line spectrum after second contact, and
in the case of many lines for some time
before. For several seconds after Sec
ond contact the field of the spectre
scope was filed with bright lines of
various length, appearing as fine cres-
cents. Some of these were observed
for or 10 seconds after totalty began,
and the blue hydrogen at -totality
was seen for at least two-thirds of a
complete circle, part of 1T remaining
throughout. Magnesium was visible
at mid-totality, and there were green
and several others. The spectroscope
used by Mr. Jewell in his visual obser-
vations was small fiat Rowland graf
ing, used with a field glass.
DR.. Sims has received satisfactory re-
ports from members OF the different
parties. The visual results of Prof R..
W. Wood are extremely pleasing. He
showed that the bright line spectra
were not polarized, and that there was
no periodic fluctatation of the light in
the corona. He has finally settled sew
eral question concerning the moons
shadow bands.
Prof George e. Hale, who was at
Wadesboro, N. c., obtained for the first
time evidences of heat from the corona
