WOMAN'S REALM
NaM the FirSt Waman Mas Made

According TO HindOo legend. this
is the proper origin OF woman. Twash-
tri, the good vulcan a. the Hindoo
mythology, created the world. But on
his commencing 90 create women he
discovered that with man he had ex-
hausted all his cgoat.ye materials, and
not one sclid element lad been left.
This, Of course, greatly perplexed
Iwashtri, and caused him to fall in a
profound meditation. When he arose
from it he proceeded as follows: He
took
The roundness of the moon.
The undulating curves Of the SER
pent,
The graceful twist of the creeping
plant,
The light shiverlng of the grass
blade and the slenderness Of the will
low,
The velvetty softness of the flowers
TIE lightness OF the feather,
The gentle gaze of the doe.
The frolicsOmeness OF the dancing
sunbeam
The tears of the cloud.
The Inconsistency of the wind.
The timidness of the hare,
The vanity of the peacock,
The hardness OF the diamond.
The sweetness of honey
The cruelty of the tiger.
The heat of the fire,
The chill Of the snow,
The caclling of the parrot,
The cooling Of the turtle dove.
All these he mixed together and
formed the woman
Then he presented her to the man.

Essay On Babies

Babies are usually young. Now and
again specimens may be found of
twenty years and over Real. live, un-
mistakable. heard-a-mile-off babies,
are always young.
Babies have features With a good
microscope you can see a baby's nase.
1t has a high forehead-one that goes
right over to the back of its neck. A
babys ears are put on for amusement.
solely to relieve its great expanse of
cheek. The places where its eyebrows
ought to be are there, but the eyebrows
have not arrived. which gives rise to
suspicion that babies are bare-faced
creatures.
A baby has eyes, which eyes it
chiefly uses to express astonishment-
evoked, no doubt, by the antics and
language of those about 1t has a
mouth, too. which it keeps for putting
its hands and feet into. together with
keys, pencils, coins. pieces Of coal, and
other odds and ends it may find lying
about A baby's mouth is by far the
most useful Of its possessions.
Babies wear clothes The chief OBJ
iect aimed at in dressing a baby is to
lose the baby among the clothes. II
you have a foot and half or two feet
of a baby, you VIII require from forty
to fifty yards of clothes to dress ii
properly. The reason for this is that
every baby is the best baby that ever
was born, and the fact must be en-
phasized Besides. somebody might
wish to steal it; and, in such case
tho longer he had to look for it. the
greater would be the chance OF catch
ing him.-London Tit-Bits.

In which the province passed from the
possession of Spain back to the owner
ship OF France. only TO be delivered
over to the United states. That incl
dent In American history has been Sc
lected by Franklin Fyles as the i'm
pOrtant factor for the background OF
the play. The period shows New Or
leans first under the rule of a luXur-
ious Spanish governor. who treats with
the pirates. ont OF fear. and for his
own profit pays little heed to the ap-
proaches of the Indians, and the other
dangers that menace the city In the
atmosphere OF gayety and luxury
which Is shown in the various scenes.
there is the discordant note of dissatis-
faction and impending tragedy In the
latter scenes of the play. this influence
continues as a background for the
engrossing action and spirited move

Since publicity commands CONNER
ciai prosperity, it follows that the man
who would succeed in business must
keep himself constantly in the public
eye, There is but one unfailing way
to do this. The merchant must adver-
tise himself, his store and his goods
until they shall become as we'll known
as old landmarks. When this degree
OF publicity shall have been attained
he will enjoy continuously profitable
custom.
