her to stop calling for help and come an refused to do anything of the sort, and one of the robbers, leaving his companion to struggle with the man they were trying to rob, ran across the street toward her. When at distance of about 20 feet the robber fired, the bullet passing close by Mrs. Willis head. Even then Mrs. Willis refused to step back, and the robber was advancing to try a sec ond shot when Mrs. Willis friends pulled her inside and slammed the front door.
 The woman's cries had the desired effect, however, for hearing footsteps coming on the run down the street, the two robbers took flight, running west to Monroe street. "There was not much to it," said Mrs. Willis when congratulated on her pluck. "I did not want to see them rob that man if could help it. They called to me to hush up and I wouldn't hush up.' Then one of them ran toward me, and I do not think that he was over 20 feet away when he fired. don't know where the bullet struck, but I could hear it sing, and it was not far away. I think he would have hit me the next time, as he was getting ready to fire again and I had no in- tention of going inside. I had no choice about that, however, as my friends just hauled me through the door. I don't know who the man was, but the robbers did not get any thing, so he told the policeman. He had just bought new watch two days before. I heard him saying that. If those men had been holding up anybody I knew or cared about think would have, gone right over to help him." Mrs. Willis is 27 years old and of such modest manner, says the Chicago Tribune, that only her flashing eyes suggest the pluck she has shown.

FACED I'NU BAD MEN
Chicago Highway-nen Rolled by
 Young Wpman's Pluck.
How Mrs. willis Saved an Unknown Mans Property and Possibly His Life Would Not Retreat
 Under Pistol Fire.

Bravely. defying the revolver and threats of footpad, Mrs. Bessie Will lis, of 34 Lafiin street, Chicago, pre- vented a highway robbery and saved for man whom she does not know his valuables and possibly his life. At about II o'clock Mrs. Willis was standing at her door saying good night to some friends who had been spending the evening with her. While they were talking in the doorway a man who later reported his name to the police as E. c. Fowler, 403 West Adams street, passed along the west side of Laflin street, closely followed by two other men. As Mir. Fowler reached the, alley between Monroe and Adams streets, the two men stopped him. The party on the steps across the street at first suspected that it was case of robbery, but as there was no struggle and no out cries the robbery idea was abandoned, The three men soon separated, Mr.. Fowler continuing on his way to- wards Adams street, the thieves re- turning to Monroe street. where they stopped at the corner to await w. J. Bowling, of 427 Polk street, who was walking along the south side of Mon roe street. Bowling was stopped and the robbers at once began to go through his pockets.
 This time there could be no mis- take, and the friends of Mrs. Willis, crying: 70, it's holdup," ran into the house. Mrs. Willis, however, stepped out into the street and called out: Let that man alone,' and then sent up loud calls for the police. 'Shut up there," shouted back one of the robbers. Mrs. Willis continued her cries for help, and the fellow then and there shouted: 9TH blow your head off," The friends of Mrs. Willis. who could see the flash of steel in the robbers hand, implored

CHILDREN IN SUMMER.
kules Which Should Govern Youns Mothers in the Care of Their
 Infanta

The heat of summer is especially trying to the health of little children. If the child has been fed at regular hours and has learned to take maps at stated periods the value of such habits will now be seen. More than one-half of the children born die before they are two years old, and of these more than one-half die in the summer time, overcome by heat and the various dis eases of the digestive organs, which arise from improper food, says the New York Tribune.
 A healthy baby wakes early in the morning, and in summer he should be dressed at once and taken out in tho cool morning to take his first meal un- der the trees and to enjoy himself with singing birds and the young life of nature. If the child is taken out and fed as early as six o'clock in the morning, and if he is we'll, he will soon fall asleep under the trees and sleep until his bath is ready. Ten o'clock in the morning is an hour when it is usu- ally convenient to bathe him, and if the baby is given his bath systematic. ally at this hour in winter, as well as in summer, he will be eager for it, and his morning outing will give him a vigorous appetite. After the meal fol- lowing the bath the child will usually take his longest nap. A Astrong, healthy baby may sleep three or four hours after his bath, or if quite young may wake up long enough to take food once.
 The child will take hearty meal at two o'clock and again at four o'clock, but after the midday rest is over the baby cannot be expected to sleep much during the afternoon. If he is to sleep at night it is not desirable that he should sleep after four o'clock in the afternoon. This time should be spent in some gentle amusement which will keep the child awake so that he will be ready to go to sleep at six o'clock. It is easy to teach him to form the habit of being awake be- tween these hours.
 Nothing is more injurious to the health of little child or more detri- mental to his nervous system than the habit which some form of turning night into day. A healthy child which has regularly and systematically been fed during the day will sleep all night, waking only once or twice for food.
 Children, like all little animals, should be handled as little as possi- ble in warm weather or at any time during their infancy. The heat of the mothers or the nurses body is always irritating to child of sensitive nerves. Let the baby form the habit of toss ing about on shawl spread on the ground, where he can take care of him- self, or, if he is older, of playing on a pile of clean sand brought in and emptied in a huge box for the pur- pose. The contact with the earth will bring vigor and strength. The old story of the giant Antaeus, who drew his strength from the earth, was no idle fable. So did Antaeus, and so does every son and daughter of man gain vigor and health from the touch of Mother Earth, and in proportion as they are taken away by pride and lifted on soft cushions away from that health-giving touch do they lose health and life.

HOT WEATHER PHYSICS.
The Inquisitive Son Engages His Fa- ther in Q Philosophical Dis
 cussfon.

The thermometer was doing busi- ness at the new stand it had taken up at No. one hundred and some thing in the shade, and, with the electric fan in the corner, was about the only object in the room which showed special evidence of life, re- Hates the New York Times.
 'tPop," presently came in small voice from the sofa, Pop, doesn't motion produce heat?"
 .sYes, my son, so keep quiet"
 There was silence for a moment; then
 .Pop, doesn't all motion produce heat?''
 ''Yes, my son, all motion; even the motion of moving my lips to answer your questions causes more heat than s necessary this weather"
 There was silence again. "Pop" continued trying to finish up busi- ness letter, and the owner of tEe small voice continued lying on the sofa, looking istlessly ahead into the lectric fan, his fluffy hair waving softIy in the cooling current which lowed from it's fast-revolving blades.
 Once more the silence was broken:
 .'Motion causes friction, does it lot?"
 'Yes.''
 And friction causes heat?"
 s'Yes.'' , A pause of several minutes.
 sThat fan over there is in motion, ,Sn,t if nnnner?''
 .Yes, yes; don't bother me so lnuch.''
 Another pause.
 Say. pop, If that fan is in motion, and motion produces friction, and friction causes heat, why don't you stop it?s It's hot enough, isn't it, without any more motion than is nee sssary?"
 But there was no reply, and the ian went on.

Residents of Upper Main Street Don't Like It-Some Comment on the Same-Fire Department Practice

Contractor Pagan has been at work making gutter on both sides of the bank on upper Main street. This bank has been the cause of a great amount of trouble on numerous occasions, and people are desirous of having some thing done to do away with this aggra- yation. The bank is about three feet and half in height at it's highest point and slopes down gradually at both ends. Already there have been three different accidents there of teams turning over on the same. Even property owners about that section are unable to get any information about this embankment, whether they have the right to remove it or not, and this same fact has kept several from laying sidewalks along the street. They have simply been waiting until the town saw fit to remove the en- bankment. When this earth is taken away it will necessitate the sinking of the water pipes a few feet, and this work should be done before fall, on account of the liability of the pipes freezing and thus ausing an endless amount of trouble and annoyance, be- sides considerable cost to repair again. Contractor Pagan might receive some instructions on this matter which would enable him to proceed with this work, thereby benefitting the town inn measurably.

 In the pope's chapel the cardinals kneel at the benches on which they sit They wear at ceremonial func- tions a cassock with a train of cloth in winter and of moire in summer. Collars, shoes and stockings are red. The girdle is of red moire with gold tassels, the rochet of lace and the mo- zetta the same as the cassock. In Rome the rochet is covered with red mantelletta; outside the city it is un- covered. The hat is red felt with gold tassels.
 The cardinals di curia, or those re- siding in Rome, are entitled to year " income, or platte cardinalizio of 32, 900 lire-about st, ,4OO-which is paid out of the ePter's pence. The cardinal dwelling ordinarily has these special apartments: At the entrance is an antechamber for the domestics. Above a credence are the arms of the cardinal under canopy. On the wall are suspended his two kneeling cush-

 Cardinals should be 30 years of age. Mgr. MartineIIi will be one of the youngest members of the college. He is now 53. Cardinal Skebenslky, arch bishop of Prague, is the youngest, be- ing only 3S. Cardinal Wives y Tuto comes next. He is 47. Then Mgr. Martinelli fits in, says the Baltimore Sun
 When the sacred college is complete there are 70 cardinals, namely six bishops, 50 priests and 14 deacons. Cardinals of lower order have, with
 e consent of the pope, the right Of otion to pass to higher order The jeacons can chose the vacant places of the cardinal priests if they have been dcacons for ten years, and have been ordained to the priesthood. The senior cardinal priest present in Rome when one of the six bishoprics falls vacant has the option to succeed to it, with the exception of the sees of Ostia and of Porto, which are re- served for the dean and the subdean of the sacred college The dean is the senior cardinal, dating from his promotion to one of the sees.
 There are now 67 cardinals-40 Ital- ians and 27 of other nationalities- It is said that Pope Leo XIII desires alwa-- 4a have the membership near the pIenum, or limit, and that he said just before making out the recent list of 12 new cardinals:
 Better that there should be as many as possible to choose from in the next conclave." Pope Plus K, having had the longest reign, created 4he most cardinals, 179; Pope Leo XII. has buried 136 cardinals since he began his pontificate.
 Besides Cardinal Martinelli seven other cardinals have had to do with the church of North America They are Cardinal Cheverus. the first bishop of Boston; Cardinal McCloskey, arch bishop of New York; Cardinal Gib- bons. of Baltimore; Cardinal Tascher- eau. of Quebec; Cardinal Perisco, bish- op of Savannah; Cardinal Mazzella, the Jesuit theologian and professor at the college at Woodstock Md, and Cardinal Satolli, former delegate to the United States Of these cardinals Cheverus, Perisco and Mazzella had left this country before they were created cardinals.
