Not Born Officially.

ance, This gentleman, a babu of a
characteristic type, devoted many
hours consideration to the problem,
and after weighing all the pros and
cons, delivered an opinion to the eff
feet that the desired holiday could not
properly be granted, as the baby had
been born to his chief in his private
and not in his official capacity. This
oracular response seems to suggest
that a man might have a son born to
him in his official and not in his pri-
vate capacity-though I confess 1 do
not quite see how that could be.

Beyond the Span of Life.

To be sentenced to Imprisonment
for the term of ones natural life is
hard enough, but to be consigned to a
dungeon cell for a couple of thousand
years is, indeed, narrowing. Yet for
eign judges not infrequently impose
sentences Of several centuries, without
1t being considered anything remark
able. Not long ago an Italian adyen-
turer was convicted of sixty-three dis
tinct forgeries. He was sentenced in
each case, with the result that he will
be free in the year 20S9.
A couple of years ago a young man
was arrested in Vienna, who, upon his
own showing, should have been SEN
fenced to $500 years Imprisonment.
A total of 400 charges was brought
against him, and he was convicted and
sentenced on all of them. But the
judge was a merciful man and, in
passing sentence, he threw off 1000
years in consideration of the mans
youth. A little time ago, in the great
Calabrain brigandage trial in Naples,
the public prosecutor demanded SEN
tence upon 248 prisoners, and, although
the average sentence imposed was a
little over five years, the aggregate of
the sentences amounted to 1900 years.

The Baby's Toothbrush.

The care of a child's teeth is a mat
ter of Importance and should not be
neglected. From the time 1t has cut
the first eight teeth great care should
be taken to keep them clean, and a
brush of cameps hair should be used.
By brushing the teeth daily-afteT
each meal-with a brush that is not
too hard, unremitting care and fire.
quent use Of the dental floss (Which,
by the way, is not common doss) every
one can preserve his teeth and keep
them in healthy condition.
Brushes should be kept clean and
antiseptic and renewed frequently
long before the bristles begin to come

Gowns of Finest Cotton.

Preferred to foulard this season for
style is the fine spun and finely WOW
en- cotton dress goods with an all
black ground. The printing upon it is
in ivory white. 1t has not the coarse
look of some of the strong twilled cot
ton dress materials. The white is not
dead white, but a clear, soft ivory. The
designs printed are the all-popular
foulard patterns. These are well dis
tinguished from the mercerized dress
goods in vogue last season, and still
popular in a certain sense. The dull
cashmere finish is a rest to the eye
wearied with looking at MORE and
glace effects.
A New York bride chose one Of these
fine black ground cottons for her go
ing away gown. 1t was not to be mis-
taken for a foulard. The skirt Of the
frock was unlined, having only six
inch facing. This makes it cool in
deed, for most Of the foulards and In
dia silks are made up on a deep
skirt or have the lining set in, "seam

with white lawn, but the bishop

twelve feet long and eight feet wide
At one end the posts are about five
and one-half feet high, at the other
only three feet. Across each end OF
the rectangle an elght-inch board is
nailed at the top Of the posts. In the
upper edge Of these boards are cut
notches about four inches deep and
two and one-half inches wide. Begin

Now take boards four inches wide

notches In each end board, and bore
holes through them at intervals Of one

which is the best possible meat for a
summer luncheon, have fresh pease,
in little cups made either of batter or
of puff paste, and small new potatoes
with a rich cream over them. The
sherbet is made after a new fashion;
the juice Of three lemons is put on two
cups of granulated sugar and the
whole thoroughly beaten, after which
a quart of milk is poured over all,
mixed and frozen. This may be served
either in tall glasses or in little bas-
kets cut from the skins of lemons and
tied with ribbons to match the flowers.

Wastes on the Farm,

Millions of dollars worth of mate
rial are wasted annually on the farms
of this country, is a statement made
by some authority In the aggregate
l suppose there Is an enormous amount
Of waste in every industry, and farm.
ing Is no exception to the rule. There
are farmers to-day who avoid waste
on their farms fully as much as the
wideawake manufacturer or producer
in other lines. On the other hand,
there are plenty who fail to realize
that they are wasting good material,
although the process is going on daily
under their very noses. Everything
Is waste that is not put to it's best
and highest use. Thus cornstalks
burned in the field is a distinct waste
if there is any possible way to convert
them into food for cattle. Sometimes
it is a decided waste simply because
the farmer is too stupid to see that his
best plan is to raise more cattle to eat
the stalks, and less corn. Again ii
Lay be a great waste to attempt to
raise only one farm crop when the un.
certainties of selling the produce at a
fair profit are great, especially if there
are other crops which could be raised
satisfactorily.
Sometimes one Of the greatest wastes
on the farm comes from the failure to
spend money for needed improve
ments. The soil that is not in fit con-
dition for raising a certain crop to the
highest perfection is actually wasted
when soWn with seed which it cannot
possibly do the best by. The waste
comes in at such times because Of lack
of foresight or because the farmer is
unwilling to spend the extra amount
O. money. Now, we can waste soil
and crops We can also waste time,
machinery and labor All of these are
important factors and they must be
studied separately and Individually.
The successful merchant studies the
market, labor, cost of production and
the wear and tear of machinery and
waste of capital. So the farmer must,
to avoid leaks and wastes, look to it
shat the highest efficiency is obtained
from every dollar OF capital he has in
vested. Progressive farmers of to-day
are doing this, and they are rapidly
becoming the best business men in the
country. The man who can take a
run. down farm and build it up and
make a good living from it through
good farming is a shrewd business
man not to be overlooked in this age
OF strenuous iiving.-W. E Edwards,

Queen Victoria's wedding wreath, had
lived In Chicago flfty-three years when
she died there recently.
Miss Ruth Mason, daughter Of Sena-

One of the three women who have
been honored in England by public
statues to their memory was Dorothy
Pattison, or, as she was called, Sister
Dora Although a schoolmistress by
profession, she studied medicine in
order to relieve the sick, and many
times she ministered to needy suffer
ers, regardless Of great risk to herself,
even venturing twice where no one
else would go, into districts infected
with smallpox.
Miss Edith Emery, Of Salem, Ind,
is a young woman who can think
quickly in an emergency. A railroad
bridge near her home had been so
damaged by fire as to be unsafe. A
few days ago, noting the danger, she
as once telegraphed the station master
at Hitchcock, her message arriving
just in time to enable him to flag q
fast express from the West. AS the
bridge is on a sharp curve, only her
prompt action saved the train and the
lives Of the hundreds Of passengers it
carried.
Lady Glentworth, of England is one
of the few remaining ladies who serve
as interesting links with a. dim and
distant past. Lady Glentworth has
lived in 10 fewer than five different
reigns; those Of George Ill, George
w, William ", the late Queen Vic
toria, and Of the present king, Edward
VII. She has been twice married. 1t
is curious to note that she was about
forty-siX when she married her second
husband, but that she lived to cele-
brate her golden wedding with him,

To Get Best Results From Rofrigerators

~ wv 'N5t Aso7HANs n rum ARoitAE NiHAutss
There are many people who from a
false idea Of economy fail to get the
best results from the use Of ice and
refrlgerators A common mistake Is
getting a small piece Of ice every day
or every other day, instead Of filling
the ice chamber two or three times
a week. The small piece Of ice cannot
reduce the temperature sufficiently,
and the result is that each new piece
melts rapidly and the food cannot be
kept long. 1t will be found at the end
of the season that the cost of ice and
waste of food have been much greater
than If the Ice chamber had been kept
alled.-The Ladies' Home Journal.
