POSTAL CARDS SLOW TRIP.
Thirteen Years to Journey from. Phila-
dolphia to New York.

Thirteen Years to Journey from. Ph!la-
delphia to New York.
1t is only ninety miles from New
York to Philadelphia, but 1t took pos
tai card, mailed at the general post
office here. thirteen years, one month
and thirty-eight days to reach its des-
tination in Quakertown. Its rate Of
progress was tritle less than seven
miles year. Local postof1ce experts,
who examined the card today under
magnifying glasses, were at loss to
account for the delay, says the New
York Mail and Express. The card was
mailed Dec. %, 1887, at $3.50 p. m. by
Mclean Brothers & Regis, dealers in
machinery and hardware at IS South
William street, to the Paine-Diehl COM
pany, then In business at 1880 South
Penn square, Philadelphia. The only
other legible postmark on the confused
mass which covers the face Of the card
indicates that it was delivered to the
right person on the afternoon Of Feb.
4, 1901. Meantime the Paine-Diehl COM
pany had gone out of business and the
Mr.. Paine of the corporation had be-
come the secretary Of the Chemical
Speciality company. It was to him that
the card finally came. It's wide dis
crepancy in dates led to an exchange
Of letters between the two firms, but
Mclean Brothers & Riggs had no rec
ord Of the original purpose for which
the card was sent. The Philadelphia
postal authorities were persistent in
their search for Mr.. Paine. There are
at least three, and possibly four, Phil
adelphia pOstmarks on the face Of the
card and the initials or names of five
carriers on the back. It went to 1902
Indiana avenue, to Wayne Junction,
and to no one knows how many other
addresses. It's age made no difference,
and the fact Of its final delivery to a
member Of dead and gone company
Is suggestive of the exact methods of
the postal service. The chief clerk in
the Office of superintendent of mails at
the New York postoff1ce examined the
card under magnifying glass for some
time this morning. Then he said that
he gave it up. at is probable" said
he, that the card spent the thirteen
years in Philadelphia in a crack in a
separation case, where the local mails
are sorted. Frequently cracks are
opened in the compartment by the &C
ton Of heat. When delay occurs here
we give the card an 'irregularity' num-
Der and send it to the proper party
with letter Of explanation"

Not Guilty.

Tuesday forenoon the case of F. M.
Hathaway charged with unlawfully
selling an old steam threshing. outfit
came before Squire Stevens.
The testimony showed that the
machine had been sold 10. one McC Can
by in Bloom township in !. 1899 at
.sheriff's sale on mechanics lien.
This man not; deeming tbs machine
worth anything left it. there. Later
it was hauled to town by 0lof Noren
for MI. Binkley, the first owner, Mr..
Noren being custodian of the rig. Mr..
Hathaway claimed he purchased the
machine from one Myers at sibley,
later he sold it to Kadesky. The de-
fendsnt was found not guilty and Mr..
Kadesky was refunded his money.
This exonerates Mr.. Hathaway from
any criminality in the matter.

WOmen's Steppiny Stones.

Germany, which is slow in REFORM
movements, Is allowing to women in
creased educational privileges, and also
the opportunity to apply what they
know, says Harper's Bazaar. Eight lead
ing citizens now have female overseers
of the poor. In Bremen forty-three are
employed, and at Bonn eighty are at
work. In the University of Berlin the
current semester shows 81 women stu
dents, as compared with PAL last year.
One Of these is aged 81, and is taking a
course in German philology and his
tory. Six are studying theology. An
Illinois woman is conducting poul-
try business which yields her $50 a
month besides supplying her large
family with eggs and chickens. A.
cleverly devised scratching yard Is
feature of her hennery, which
compelling the hens to work for
their food in winter, seems to &C
count in part for her marked sue
cess. A New York court has decided
that a woman is not entitled to q
latchkey, and fixes ~ o'clock at night
as the limit of reasonable hours for
her to be on the street. The Imperial
government Of Austria has lately plac-
ed women on exactly the same footing
as men in regard to the practice Of
medicine ard the conducting of chem
lists shops.

The Mar Who Plows by Night.

The Man Who Plows-by-Night, that's
what the red skins would have
called him in the old days. They
might have foreborne to take his
scalp, holding him as a lunatic, and
therefore, sacred. But nowadays the
few people of Society Hill, Darlington
county, S. c., who do not know Ed
ward W. Burn think him merely a
freak because he prefers to do his farm
work by the light Of the moon. His
know that in his youth
Burn was sunstruck and had brain
fever, and to avoid a recurrence Of his
trouble he does all his farm work at
night, when sunshine and light will
not bother him. But to strangers
Burn Is an interesting person. Moth
ing in his ancestry, however, would
suggest freakishess. His father was
an architect, contractor and builder.
and held many shares of railroad
stock which deprecated greatly in the
civil war. The son, therefore, got
little from the estate besides the valu-
able farm which he works.-New

MEN OF MIDDLE AGE.
Human Mind at Its Fullest Power Be-
tween 40 and 80.

Human Mind at Its Fullest Power Be-
tween 40 and 80.
Let those who are young cease to
vaunt themselves and they who are Of
middle age rejoice. Research has
proved that the human mind is at its
fullest power between the ages of 40
and go. There are, Of course, excep-
lions to the rule, such as Byron, tho
young Napoleon and Alexander, but
taking it full and by the prime aga
of the mind of man is between 40 and
60. Swift was 40 when he wrote "Gul-
liver's Travels" and John Stuart Mill
Sc when his essay on "Utilitarianism''
was written three years before. When
"Waverley" came out Sir Walter Scott
was "A years old, and nearly all Of
those tales which have made his last
ing fame as novelist were written af-
ter he was 46. Millions genius made
its Hottest flights when he was be-
tween 81 and SO. 1t was between those
years that the wrote paradise Lost"
1.-THE Task" and John Gilpin" were
written when Cowper as over so, and
Defoe was within two years of 60 when
he wrote Robinson Crusoe" OF all
the writings of Thomas Hood "The
Song of the Shirt" and "The Bridge
Of Signs" are the best known, and
will live the longest. Hood wrote
those two poems at the age of 49, OAR
win wrote his "Origin of Species" when
he was so, and was 81 when he gave
to the world his Descent of Man"
Longfellow wrote "Hiawatha" at 48.
and Oliver Wendell Holmes gave US
Songs in Many Keys when he had
passed his 55th birthday. George Eliot
was near so when she wrote Middle
march" Bacon's greatest work took
SO years to mature, and Grote's His

SPRING FABRICS ARE THIN.
Many Exquisite CoIorlnss for Spring and'
Summer Wear. ~ k&S fES

Many Exquisite Colorinss for Spring and'
Summer Wear. ~ ,Sss s.3 Ill
Getting spring wardrobe together
or rather a spring and summer ward :
robe, is really Fascinating piece OF
business, says writer in Harper's Ba-
Ear, provided it is undertaken in the
middle Of winter; the only objections
being that in the middle Of winter
there are so many other things to be-
done that time is somewhat limited. d
But the shops are not crowded as later
and the dressmakers not so rushed
with work. and one can. linger over
the choice Of fabrics and colors with
out the feeling that some one else is
waiting to take ones place. This sea-.
unusually summer like, as though the.
terrific heat of last summer had made
people feel that clothing suited to
the tropics was what would be needed
around New York; and these materi-
ais are thin enough to do duty in the
tropics The colors are dainty, the
designs varied. 1t is going to be q
difficult matter for the woman who
prides herself upon dressing herself ex-
clusively according to color scheme
to resist the destinations of the many
exquisite colorings she will see dis
played. Blacks and whites are the
rage, that Is, white with black fig
ures, or vice versa. There are muslins,
cambrics, grenadines, bareges. silh
muslins and many materials for which
the name is not known but which are
on the order Of gauzes, that are woven
with a transparent white ground, COW
cred thick with small polka dots. These
gowns are supposed to be trimmed
with black lace and, not being intend
ed entirely for second mourning, ara
enlivened with trimmings of bright
panne velvet, satin or taffeta ribbon in
belt, collar and often in vest 'front.'
Entre-deux of black lace is used for
trimming, and yards and yards Of it
are required.
