How to Walk.

A few simple rules which will assist
in giving one a good carriage in walk
ing are: Always lift the heel frs.
Do not throw back the shoulders in
your efforts not to stoop. and never
walk on the heels. but use the ball of
the foot instead. Do not swing the
arms nor the shoulders. and let the
hands hang by the sides with the
palms turned backward so that the
backs of your hands will be presented
to any one meeting you. This is much
more graceful than the commone-
practice of letting the palms hang
against ones sides.

The Satus of Foreign Companies in
 Russia.

Foreign investors in Russian enterprises have often been put to considerable in- convenience, if not actual loss of prop erty, in not being able to understand the difference of status between a Russian and foreign company carrying on com mercial or industrial operations In Rus sia.
 What in Russian financial and commer- cial reports is known as a Russian com pany is a stock association or corpora ton which has its registered offices and the place for holding general meetings in Russia. For example, the Russo-Chinese Bank, almost the whole of whose clients are in China, and the ~Eastern Chinese Railway Company. which works section of only seventy miles length in Siberia, are Russian companies, because their registered offices are in St.. Petersburg A Russian company, unless there be clauses to the contrary in it's statutes may have as Directors none but persons of foreign nationality; 1t may have share holders who are foreigners; 1t may em- ploy as managers. engineers, workmen. etc. none but foreigners; but, foreign or Russian its shareholders cannot hold the meeting in person or by proxy, except on a given spot within the territory of the Russian Empire, and the results of these meetings must, of course, have the ap- proval of the Russian Government before any measures decided upon can be put into execution.
 On the other hand. foreign company is an ycorporation or association formed in accordance with the laws of another coun- try which has its registered office out side of Russia. even though all it's prop erty be upon Russian soil and all it's shareholders Russian. When such company asiss for privileges in Russia.

KATIE WON AGAIN.
A Utah woman's Management.

'"The first misunderstanding that Katie and I ever had was on account of coffee. She would not give it to me because sine was sure 1t was the cause of my nervous ness and sick spells, so regularly drc pped into my aunt's house on the way from school q am a school teacher you see) and stealthily put down a good strong cup of coffee each day.
 One of my sleepless nights lay won derlng what ailed me and how long my money would last If I got sick suddenly. went to school the next day as I had often done before, with nerves very trem- ulous and distressing head ache creep ing over every cubic inch of my brain.
 When 1 reached the dinner table at night, shaved and in my right mind, but very tired and faint, gave a little start of surprise and delight, followed instant ly with a feeling of shame.
 Had my sharp, though mild-eyed little wife discovered the extent of my recent perfidy? Did she know I had been talk ing coffee each day, contrary to agree ment? Beside my plate, in my own beau- tiful silver Xmas present cup. smoked and fairly smiled the beverage, inviting, delicious liquid. hastened to pour in a generous supply of cream with the usual SSSio of sugar. Then I slipped the treasure with delight.
 It tasted a good deal better than usual someway. but not exactly natural. When my cut was about half empty, began to wonder if 1t would be replenished, so I stole glance at the little woman. She had far away look in her eyes and little victorious curl on her lips.
 All at once l understood Now Katie l said amazingly, you don't mean to tell me this is Postum?' Her pretty little laugh rang out at once. and she asked through the folds of her napkin, Don't you think now there is such a thing as a good food coffee?'
 I roared with my late experience fresh in my mind) Don't ever say coffee to me again; I am a saved man tonight I then and there hugged my guardian angel and swore off on coffee for keeps"
 My health and spirits have been gain ing steadily, until now sleep like a babe and eat like a -. we'll. like a man who knows his food is going to agree with him.
 It was happy day for wife and (and for numbers of our friends) when the real danger of coffee drinking was dis covered and a beverage that would take its place was put on our table. I have been saved from a spell of nervous pros traitor, the outcome of which no one can ever fore;ell." Ross House, Robinson, Vtab

A NEW COLLEGE.
Proposed by the Presbyterians of
 Alabama.

Alabama Is keeping pace with other States in educational matters as well as in other things Besides the splendid State institutions, and the schools un- der the control of religious denomina- tions, the Presbyterian Synod of. Alabama at it's recent meeting in Birmingham, decided to found college in this State. A committee of five members was ap- pointed: Rev. A. A. Little. chairman; Rev. A. B. Curry, Rev. c. w. Patterson, Judge Coleman of Eutaw and MT. Gala well Bradshaw of Birmingham.
 The Presbyterians of this State are a fine body of people and as d general thing prosperous. It is a wonder they have not had a college before this, when the we'll known attitude of this church on the subject of education is considered. No doubt men of means will consider it a privilege to give largely to the endow- ment, and those of smaller means can add to 1t. This Is a fine opportunity for some enterprising town to secure a first-rate institution of learning. A col lege always brings class of people that any town will be glad to have in it's bor- ders No doubt several of our towns will compete actively for this college. A suitable site and enough buildings will be expected as an inducement to locate an institution of such value in one of our towns.
 This school. when established, will be a feeder to the university, and to the great universities outside of our State. Every educational enterprise deserves the cordial cooperation of all who have the welfare of their country at heart. For every one tends to drive away that'cloud of ignorance which is the matching place for ills of our body polite. Every school reaches some who WouId otherwise grow up in ignorance. There Is no unwise and unholy competition between church schools and our State institutions. They are mutually helpful to one another; and any attempt to array one against the other is foolish, to say the least. So let the State take care of her institutions of learning, and let the various denomi- nations establish their colleges until the ghoul of ignorance is driven away and her twin sister, vice, hides her face among an enlightened people.

 the government simply ascertains that It's statutes are in accordance with the laws of the country where it has been formed; the Russian officials even though all the stock of the company be held in Russia. do not inquire whether those laws suf- ficiently protect the holders of securities. The authorizations given to foreign com panies are worded not with view to enforce any article In the statutes. but so as to reserve all the rights of the Russian State. especially its fiscal rights, to cir cumscribe the operations within the limits marked out by the general law of the empire, and to prevent such com panies from avoiding their proper res possibilities. According to the terms of authorization, foreign companies accept. as far as concerns their operations in Russia, the jurisdiction of the Russian courts and submit themselves to the laws decrees, regulations. decisions, etc., even when these measures are contrary to their own statutes, of which fact, how ever, the Russian Government takes no cognizance.

Through the .clemency of Governor Jelks five convicts will be released from prison walls today and will be enabled to spend the Christmas holidays with their fami- lies and their friends.
 They are: John Ray, negro, Autauga county; Mary J. Adams. white, Chiffon county; Frances Coleman, negress, St. Clair county; Thomas Houlton, white, Montgomery county, and James Grant, white, Jefferson county.
 John Ray is serving a life sentence for murder in the first degree. He was con- victed and sentenced in January, 1898, by the Circuit Court of Autauga county for killing Will Taylor, a negro, who was his brother in law. Ray Is almost totally blind
 The Governor made this endorsement upon the petition for clemency:
 "The Physician Convict Inspector states that the defendant is totally blind in one eye and will lose his other eye. The pe- titioner was convicted upon circumstan- tial evidence. The trial Judge and the Clerk of the Circuit Court and the Ad- visory Pardoning Board recommend that a parole be granted. It is accordingly ordered"
 Mary Jane Adams Is a white woman WHO IS serving a tWO-year sentence Tor bigamy. She was sentenced at the fall term of the Circuit Court of Chiffon county and Is in jail at Clanton. It was shown to the Governor that the woman married the second time believing that she was legally divorced from her hus- band.
 In pardoning the woman the Governor says:
 The presiding Judge states that this woman thought that a decree granted to her husband authorized her to remarry The Judge and the Pardoning Board rec- ommend executive clemency. She was a very ignorant woman. Let a pardon is- sue'

DR. GEO. F. MELLEN's SUCCESS.
A Former Alabamian's Work Re-
 ceived with High Favor.


 Knoxville (Tenn.) Journal.
 It will be gratifying to the friends of Dr. George F. Mellen in this city and elsewhere to know the favor with which his literary work is being received. by the editors of various magazines and of other publications.
 To a reporter of The Journal and Tribune Dr. Mellen said tha. for one who had given himself but comparatively recently to literary work exclusively, he was pleased with his new life and with the reception given to his work.
 It will be recalled that about eighteen months ago he voluntarily resigned the chair of Greek in the University of Ten nessee to engage in writing
 The November issue in The Methodist Review (Nashville) has an article from pr. Mellen on John Pendleton Kennedy and Swallow Barn" The Sewanee Review in its January issue will publish an article by him on "Jackson's War With the Bank"
 The New England Magazine has ac- cepted two articles from his pen to be brought out the coming year, while The Methodist Review CNew YorD will also publish one Besides being a regular contributor to these periodicals, he is a frequent contributor to several of the foremost newspapers of the country. Some of these articles he expects to bring out in book form at a later date.
 In order to get access to the original sources of information and to enjoy greater opportunities for research, Dr. Mellen intends to leave soon for Wash ington for a stay of some months in the Congressional Library.
 pr. Mellen's literary ability Is being recognized from high authority and only a few days ago he received a letter from the editors of the Bookman, one of the highest class and most literary periodl- cals seeking his services as one of the contributors in a contemplated series of articles of national importance.
