help me?"
''Certainly we can," said the
clerk. "A mailboat goes to meet
the steamer, and if you address
your letter properly and put do

"But how shall | address it

"Address it John Smith, passen-

every school to which aid shall be
given shall be public school, to
which all children living within
the district, between the age Of six
and twenty-one years, shall be
admitted free Of charge for tuition.
| do not think it necessary for
a child to reside in district any
definite time before it is entitled to

Animals Shed Tears.

That animals shed tears is now fair
ly we'll established. Lady Burton says
she has seen horses in the Syrian des-
ert cry from thirst. mule cry from
the pain OF an injured foot, and camels
shed tears in streams A COW, sold by
its mistress who had tended it from
birth, wept pitifully. A young soko ape
used to cry of vexation if Livingstone
didn't nurse 1t in his arms when it
asked him to. Wounded apes have died
crying, and apes have wept over their
young ones Slain by hunters. A CHM
panzee trained to carry water jugs
broke one, and feel a-crying, which
proved sorrow, though it wouldn't
mend the jug. Rats, discovering a
young one drowned, have been moved
to tears of grief. A giraffe which a
huntsman's rifle had injured began to
cry. Sea lions weep for the loss of their
young Gordon Cummings observed
tears trickling from the eyes of dying
elephant And even an orang-outang,
when deprived of its mango, was so
vexed that it took to crying. There can
be little doubt, therefore, that animals
do weep from grief, or pain, or an
noyance.

The judge allowed Mrs Rogers $3.50

all hours without requiring vessels to
make any special signals or modify
their rate of speed any more than they
would in the case of a cross-channel
ferry, and that no increase Of distance
or ascent or descent is forced on the
traffic in order to cross from one shore
to the other.
THE essential part Of the system
may be described as horizontal rail-
way supported by a bridge spanning
the channel and built up at such
height as will allow the tallest masted
vessels frequenting the channel to
pass beneath. Any kind of bridge may
be used. provided the rectangular open
ing for navigation is left entirely clear,
except that the arched bridges, which
would reduce the rectangular area,
must be excluded. Suspension bridges.
however, owing to the facility they Of
fer tor spanning wide channels, the
great advantage they possess in per-
hitting erection by launching with
out any scaffolding interfering with
the navigation, the economy Of their
construction, the little area they offer
to wind pressure, and. lastly, their
lightness and elegance, seem to COM
mend preference in the majority of
cases. This is the kind of bridge in
ROuen.'

The American vice consul IN Roueh,
France. E. NJ. J. Dellapiane, has writ
ten to the state department an interest
ing descriptive letter on the overhead
ferry in use here across the Seine. 1t
is called the Point Transbordeur, and
he says of it:
This bridge, with suspended carrier,
or overhead ferry, is of especial inter
est as being the first Of it's kind IN
France, or. for that matter. in Great
Britain or America; and to appreciate
properly it's great Importance and
worth one has only to call to mind the
difficulties experienced by engineers
in crossing rivers and channels.
THE system exemplified by the
Transbordeur here at Rouen remedies
many of the defects and drawbacks in
trans-channel traffic so apparent In
many bridge and boat systems. It's OBJ
vious advantages are that it leaves the

trinidad, Col, letter.

The queer-looking object illustrated
in this article is not hut nor Gala
boose, but an adobe oven such as Is
commonly seen in Mexico and i'll our
own border states. This particular
oven is one of many similar to IL III
Ell Moro, Col, near Trinidad, and 1t is
used by several families for all OF their
baking.
While the bread, meats AID pies are
being prepared, the oven is filled WIN
wood which is set on fire, but burns
very slowly, as the hole near the top
for the escape of the smoke is but
small, and there is little draft as the
door is closed as tightly as possible.
When it is thoroughly heated the hre
is raked out, the food put in quickly
and the door shut up again.
The baking is said to be very even
and always sure, so the natives have
some reason for clinging to this, the
method of their ancestors, or rather
ancestresses; and it may be done with
cleanliness.
The word adobe as pronounced by
them is simply 'dobe," the "a being
dropped entirely. 1t is also self-ex-
planatory, meaning ''sun dried. TINS
baked clay is used for making houses
which are we'll suited to that sun
baked country, for they are as cool
within as those built of stone, and, OF
course, are much cheaper. Another
fortunate thing is that adobe houses
are quickly built. If it took SIX
months to put one up l fear the half
breeds would prefer to go without.
Yet their Incidence is not without
some excuse, for the summers are very
long and torturously hot: besides, one
often sees commodious, well-f1nished
adobe houses, vine-covered and every
| bit as attractive as the ordinary brick
| cottage.

Sea bikes Of tho Netherlands.

There are at present about 1000
miles of sea bikes in the Netherlands.
The total length of bikes is difficult to
estimate. and even If it could be esti-
mated would mean but little. for it
must be remembered that the bikes
have for the most part in the course
OF time been destroyed and rebuilt re-
peatedly It has not been SO much a
question of building them as it has
been of maintaining them and keeping
them where they were. Besides pro-

100000 acres, nearly all of which are
good, fertile land.

ed for-whether fruit raising, vege-
table growing, dairying or general
farming 1t will make clear to the
farmer in North Carolina for instance,
that he has the same soil that is used
advantageously for certain purposes in
Georgia, and that, if climatic condi-
tions are not unfavorable, the same
crops may be expected. A wonderful
strip of light sandy soil, not over four
or five miles wide, extends along the
Atlantic coast from Massachusetts, to
Florida, with occasional Interruptions,
bordering the ocean and its embay-
ments-i e., the rivers and bays. 1t is
a natural truck patch adapted for the

Bertha's mother, WHO is not only
woman of expedients but a thrifty
soul, decided upon a plan for punish
ing the faithless Philander. She fig
ured that he had eaten sixty hearty
dinners at her house, upon the occa-
sions of his Sunday wooings, which
at 25 cents each amounted to SIS. Be-
sides this in rash moment she had
lent him $40. She accordingly began
suit for S25.
Meanwhile, Philander, who is also
thrifty and a man of expedients, be-
gan to do little figuring on his own
side, and promptly came in with
counterclaim for $3.50, which left
Mrs. Karger $61S0 in his debt if the
claim were pressed. Bertha, as girls
go, had not been expensive. In two
years she had consumed but one box
of chocolates, twelve pounds of candy,
thirty ice creams, and 100 sodas,
amounting to 1856. She had only been
once to Coney Island. but had had
100 trolley rides, transportation foot
ing up $3.50. Bouquets for two birth
days cost S. and two books 65 cents,
a total investment of $3.50, which
shows that Philander had the adyan-
tage of $3.50 in actual expenses over
Mrs karger. This margin Philander
increased by putting in a claim for his
time, charging SO cents for each Sun
day evenings wooing for two years. or
S52 In the course of the preparations
for the suits Philander and Bertha
were thrown much together, and en-
couraged by the artful lawyers on both
sides, as well as by thrifty Mrs. kar-
ger, who was appalled, by the counter
claims. the flame broke out anew anG
I with greater ardor than before. An &C
tual engagement was effected, day
for the marriage fixed, and both suit:
were dropped, and Philander ant
Bertha are happy, all owing to Philan
der's skill in figuring.

Mafrsmony and Brains.

It would seem, according to the
opinions of some educators, that there
ought to be written over the gates of
matrimony, or at least over the la
dies entrance" to that happy state, the
words: Abandon brains all We who
enter here." for matrimony and brains
are incompatible. This subject is
rather bare bone of contention, and 1t
is one that does not admit of broad
generalization. There are many Wo-
men who seem to have reconciled hus-
bands and higher education; there are
others who with that needed qualifica-
ton for matrimonial happiness, lack
of brains, are still unable to make a
success of that state; and there are
women who are successful in life with
out either the husbands Or the educa-
ton.
A sociologist of some repute. Lester
F. Ward, says that one who knows
anything of the laws of biology must
insist upon the equal development OF
both sexes. ANY theory OF develop
ment," he says, shat recognizes the
fact of the transmission of acquired
qualities must expect that where only
one parent has acquired such qualities
the offspring will only inherit one-hali
of them. If the full value of the en-
ergy expended in comforting useful
qualities is to be realized in the off
spring, they must be. conferred equally
upon both parents" Mr.. Ward fur
Their says that, while the female mind
differs from the male in many impor-
tant and fortunate respects, intellect
is one and the same everywhere, ano
that the proper nourishment of intel
lect is truth. 1t seems rather late II
the day for those who claim to be edu
Gators to advance the theory that onl.
by starving the mind is woman n
for the high state of matrimony.
