ODDS AND ENDS

Singers, actors and pubic speakers,
since the introduction of the electric
light, have less trouble with their
voices, and are less likely to catch cold;
their Threats are not so parched and
they feel better. This is due to the air
not being vitiated and the temperature
more even.
From the small island of st. Kilda.
off Scotland, 10000 young gannets and
an immense number of eggs are annual
ly collected; anil although this bird lays
only one egg per annum and is four
years in obtaining it's maturity, its
numbers do not diminish. Obviously
such birds must reach great age or
they would long ago have been exter-
minated.
In the reign of Edward III. there
were at Bristol, England. three broth
ers who were eminent clothiers and
wooden weavers, and whose family name
was Blanket. They were the first per-
sons who manufactured that comfort
able material which has ever since been
called by their name and which was
then used fer peasants clothing.

The nearer the eyebrows are to the
eyes the frmer and the more earnest

Sensitivcness and tenderness are in
Dictated by slightly-arched eyebrows,
and firmness of purpose and kindness
Of heart by those who are straight at
the beginning and are rather arched at
the temples.
An ardent but tender nature is known
by the hair being soft and fine. When
the hair of the eyebrows has a down
ward droop so that it almost meets the
lashes when the eyes are widely opened
tenderness and melancholy are be-
trayed.
Straight eyebrows, forming firmly
defined line close to the eyes, denote
great determination and will power.
Those which begin rather strongly and
terminate abruptly without passing be-
yond the eyes show an impatient and
irascible nature.
Eyebrows of the same color as the
hair show eonstancy. frmness and res

denote indecision and weakness, while

THE POSTAGE STAMPS.

The postage-due stamp, red on yell

centavos instead of one peso.
The average charge made by the rail
road companies for transporting the
mails is eight cents per pound, and the
average distance per piece is 442 miles
a Washington collector has found
what he calls split provisional" tits
a two-cent due stamp of the current
type, severed diagonally, surcharged
and used as one-cent stamp. A west
ern postmaster, who was out of one
cent stamps, for few days, is said to be
responsible for this freak, having man
ufactured a few of them for the emer-
gency.
Stamp collectors residing in India
have a special infection to contend
with, in the shape of an unsympathetie
climate, as most all specimens bearing
the original gum are apt to get spoiled

this calamity, firm in Calcutta has de-
signed sort of drying case, which it is
said completely does away with the diff

Mr.. Shields, an insurance man. She

the amount. The same falling due as
notes sometimes do, she declined to
settle and Mr.. Shields took the regu-

CARL SCHURZ ON BRYAN

Carl Schurz, who is in Milwaukee
attending the jubilee OF the Milwau-
kee Musical Society, speaking of
William Jennings Bryan, says that it
had not been his fortune to meet Mr.
Bryan, but that he had followed the
course of the man and his public ut
terances with much interest.
Il regard Mr.. Bryan as remarka-
BILE man IN many respects" said Mr..
Schurz. 1T is a dangerous proceed
ure for a public man to be constantly
talking to the people for number of
years and no man who is not perfect
ly sincere in the position he takes,
can take such a course. Sooner or
later his real character will crop out,
for it cannot be hidden under such
circumstances.
THE man who talks TO people for
effect, and who tries to pursue a
course which he does not corscien-
tiously believe to be the right one,
stands in hourly danger Of exposure.
Yet Mr.. Bryaa has been before the
public continuously for four years,
and he has carried himself all the
time as though there could be but one
side to the question he discus: es.
Il have heard much of Mr.. Bryan
and would be charmed to make his
personal acquaintance. We can hon.
or a man for the honest expression Of
his views, even if we do not agree
with him. There seems 10 be nc
doubt that Mr.. Bryan will be renou,-
mated this year, but it is still toe
early to say how the campaign will
really be made and what ques
lions will force themselves into prom
inence.
-Four years ago the Republican:
wanted to make the tariff the leadins
issue of the campaign, but they wer'
unable to do it, as the people woult
listen to nothing else but the discus
sion of the financial question. Thi
year that party will not want to dis
cuss the tariff question in the cam
paign and still the people may com
pei them to do it, as the Porto Ric
