THE CANAL TREATY.
It Will Probably Show that "the
 People Have Triumphed.

St Louis Republic (Deml
 With the arrival in Washington of Lord Pauncefote, the British Ambassador to this country, there Is reason to believe that negotiations will begin which will terminate only in the ratification of an isthmian canal treaty in which the plain rights of this government are distinctly recognized by Great Britain.
 The announcement has been repeatedly made, and is now again reiterated from the National Capital that Lord Paunce- fote brings with him the draft of treaty abrogating the -Bplwer treaty conSenting that the neutrality of the ca nal shall be guaranteed solely by the United States government and not for bidding the erection of Qualifications. Such a treaty would doubtless be promptly con- frmed by the United States Senate.
 Should this prove to be the case, the final result the enactment of treaty In which American rights are distinctly rec ognized and protected. would slSndily demonstrate the power of public senti- ment in this country. The Hay-Paunce- fote treaty so disadvantageous to us ana so full of undue advantage for England, was defeated solely by the American pro- test against such a surrender to British dictation. Secretary of state Hay was se- verely condemned for agreeing to such treaty There was no eNerclse or gov ernmental Influence capable of compelling the treatv's ratification by the Senate. To England's discomfture and disgust, the treaty failed of acceptance, ana the 1act became plain that the Cnited states meant to build and control an American canal with or without Englands consent. The nresent likelihood of satisfactory traa+v is inc outcome. The people have triunnphed over thc diplomats.

The Fair Sex in Politics.

Where woman will she will, and
If men wish to keep women out of the
pool of politics, says Ainslee's Maga-
zine, they will do well to make haste
and give them all they ask along these
lines, for there is no other way to stay
their advance. Already the small edge
of the wedge has made its way far into
the oak of resistance. In Wyoming,
Colorado, Utah and Idaho women have
full suffrage, including a vote on petit
tion on the granting of saloon licenses.
In Delaware municipal suffrage exists
in several towns. In Kansas there is
full municipal suffrage. In Montana
women may vote on local issuance o.
bonds for public improvements. In
Pennsylvania women may vote on local
improvements by petitioning for or
against them.

MATRIMONIAL FIRMS.
Why Husband and Wife should he
Familiar with Each Others
Business Affairs

Husband and wife should always con-
slider themselves members of a matri-
monial firm, and both should be famil-
lar with all business secrets. If they
would recognize the fact that they are
business partners, and that each
should know the financial standing of
the firm-their debts and their assets
many of the troubles of matrimonial
life would be avoided.
1t is exceedingly hard for man to
find his wife spending money-prob-
ably very hardly earncd-on some
bauble or luxury which he would not
feel justified in buying for her, unless
his income were double what it is. The
chances are that he reproves her for
her recklessness and extravaganza,
thereby rousing her indignation, and
very likely laying himself open to the
charge of stinginess, and also of in
justice.
1t is quite probable that instead Of
being stingy he is rather overindulgent
to her, but it is very likely that he has
not treated her justly. He has never
thought of her as his business partner,
and, though he has given her the right
to handle a certain amount of his
money, he has not explained to her
exactly how he stands financially.
Instead of having any secrets re-
gnrding money matters, there should
be entire frankness between husband
and wife from the very first. The wife,
as junior partner, will have keen in
terest in increasing the prosperity of
the firm, and not only will misunder-
standings be avoided, but the bond of.
mission will be strengthened between
her and her husband in mutual conf
dence and advice concerning the house

difference between those men, but
they were intimate friends. Mckinley

temper. Mckinley was highly edu-
Gated gentleman, but Stephenson was
a man of little education. He was u
man of great ability and kind man,
too, and Mckinley often consulted
him about public affairs while they
were going to the capitol. They al
ways went to their daily work about
ten o'clock in the morning. But in the
evening, after supper, Mckinley fre-
quently lighted cigar and went out
walking alone. He called on many
men, but always walked, unless he
was in great hurry. Sometimes, in
the evening he would keep me going
for two or three hours. / remember

NAPoLEoN's TEA SET.

factured for Napoleon in 1906. It's
with the imperial arms, the bees and
decorations being in old gold. In
every detail it is as perfect to-day as
when it left the factory, and as to the
date of its manufacture there can be
no question, since it is clearly indi-
Gated by a red mark on the back of
each piece.
Whether the emperor used it much
or little is not known, but after his
death it passed into the possession of
his heirs and thus in time became the
property of Louis Napoleon. During
his reign it remained in Paris, but
after his death it was purchased by an
Austrian merchant from the executors
of his estate at Chiselhurst, in Eng
land. The Austrian took it to Vienna
and soon received a handsome offer
for it from firm of jewellers in Mexico
City which he accepted. The new
owners retained it in their possession
for several years, but finally disposed
of it to Mr.. +. b. McKercher, assistant
general manager of the Mexican Cen
trail railway.
For the last few years many ad-
mirers of Napoleon in Europe and
elsewhere have been wondering what
became of his beautiful tea set, and
the news of its being located has at
tracted unusual attention and is i'm
pelling several persons to ask whether
there may not be other Napoleonic
relics In Mexico.-N. Y. Herald.

THE CARE OF GEMS.
Diamonds Require Gentle Treatment
and Care to Remain sound
and Brilliant.

The best of all jewel boxes are not
the satin-lined, velvet-covered ones in
which the jewelers. alluringly display
their wares, but air-tight cases simply
lined with wool. Even in such a re-
ceptacle diamonds should be wrapped
in silversmith's tissue paper to keep
them of exquisite brilliancy.
Diamonds, in spite of their hardness,
must be treated with great care.
Though they can hardly be scratched,
they nevertheless chip, and when
roughly used are easily loosened in
their setting, and fall out at the most
unexpected moment. When they are
sent to be cleaned the expert first tests
the settings, and then dips the ring
or pin repeatedly into little eau de
cologne. \ powerful magnifying glass
is used to detect any foreign bodies
in the setting, and an ornament that
has an accumulation of dust, grease
or soap on it's under side, a blemis h
that is often noticeable in rings, is
dipped alternately in soapsuds and eau
de cologne, and very fine soft camel
hair brush pointed like a pencil is en-
ployed to reach delicately between the
claws of the setting. When the jewel
is thoroughly clean it is buried in q
jar of fine sawdust to dry. This is all
done after the gold or silver ting
has been carefully rubbed with jewell
ers' rouge, dried and polished with n
tiny chamois-covered pad.
When diamonds and turquoises are
set together the most exquisite care
is taken that alcohol only is utilized
with whiting to clean both the setting
and the diamonds, and as little moist
ure as possible is allowed to come near
the blue stones. If a turquoise has
been carelessly treated, and is turning
green from the effects of water, the
cleaner sets it to soak in stale beer.
which treatment will frequently re-
store the pure azure color. But old
turquoises that are nearly green have
a value all their own.
Pearls require great deal of hu-
man companionship, and that is why
they are so constantly worn by their
owners. When they are sick" Ito use
a technical term) they are given sun
baths, and sometimes are sunk in the
sea in perforated caskets to be re-
stored to health and luster. Pearls
held in a warm, dry hand and drawn
slowly backward and forward through
the half-closed member are benefited.
Some women have their pearls re-
strung every season, and when the
owner cannot arrange to wear fine
string of these gems at least once a
fortnight the cleaner lays them in a
cup of warm flour or lukewarm fresh
milk to keep their skins in good order.
Experts test real diamonds by touch
ing them with the tip of their tongue.
Diamonds are icy cold; paste is not
Real pearls they can differentiate from
false, it is said, by the touch of their
finger tips, for the skin of the real
pearl has feeling peculiar to itself

task that has made his name enduring.
1t has often been noted and comment

opinions upon constitutional questions
John Marshall quoted but few authori-

by saying that written constitutions had
