ICE AND ICE CREAM.
Are Luxuries Little Known in the Cities
of France.

Since the publication in the con-
sular reports of my recent brief dis
patch in regard to ice in France, I
have received many letters requesting
additional informs ton upon the sub
ject. In almost every instance one Of
the first inquiries is: "What are the
prospects for the establishment of an
ice cream and cool drink business in
the large French towns?" I do not
know whether the answering of such
question comes within the sphere Of
consul's duty, as the opening of ice
cream saloons and the running of
cool drink establishments by Ameri-
cans in France would hardly affect the
output of United States products, but
speaking generally I should say that,
as far as Rouen is concerned, the out
look for such establishments is good.
A few evenings ago stopped at one
of the largest cafes here and asked
for ice cream. 1t was served in lit
tie glass about the size of wineglass.
There was certainly not more than
three level tablespoonfuls, and of
poor quality at that The cost was
20 cents. There are only two orthree
places in this city where cream is
served. In order to make such
business pay great deal of patience
would have to be, exercised. In Nor
mandy new ideas filter into the peo-
pies minds very slowly, and the per-
son who opened an ice cream saloon
would, in the beginning, be regarded
with suspicion. Then there is deep
seated prejudice against cool things,
and physicians generally say that ice
is most injurious to the health.
Another question which has been
repeatedly asked is: ''Can ice be had
at reasonable price, and, if not,
would small icemaking plant pay
well?" Undoubtedly, market exists
in many of the larger cities of France
for icemaking machinery of American
man ufacture. As a natural conse-
quence, all else connected with the
comforts of cool living in hot weather
would follow the introduction of these
machines. This spring a Mr.. Pat
terson, an American, established the
first ice factory in this city with an
output of "a tons daily Heretofore
all ice was shipped from Norway, but
it cannot be long before such compe-
tition must give way to the manufac-
tured product, even though the inn
ported ice is admitted free of duties.

CHINESE GIRLS, SCHOOLS.
Government Urged to Establish Them BY
Shanghai Newspaper.

The Shen Pao discusses the re-
vival of girls schools. There is an
ancient saying: eff woman is with
out ability, that is her virtue" This
is the language of very limited mind.
The Book of Odes frequently extols
certain ladies on account Of their pos
sessing both talent and virtue. One
section of the Book of Rites treats Of
the rules of decorum proper for fe-
males. In the Han dynasty lady
named Ts'ao wrote history. In the
Sung dynasty lady named On Yang
MI was famous painter. These fe-
males must have certainly studied the
Book of Odes, or they could not have
done what they did. InShun Chih's
time his mother wrote a book on do
nestle affairs, for the use of women,
that they might understand the doc
trines of the sages for the regulation
of the family and the pacifcation of
the empire. The government should
not postpone the establishment of
girls schools GU ask: Is there any
truth in the ancient saying quoted
at the head of this article? We reply
there is undoubtedly some truth in
it, for we have frequently observed
that women who are guilty Of great
evil are often versed in books, and in
those cases one could wish that the
natural obfuscation of their minds
had never been removed. But, after
all, such wicked females have not
really been enlightened, for if they
had they would be like those excel
lent ladies mentioned above, in whose
works O filial piety, ~ reverence,
(3) instruction, (D etiquette, (5)
courtesy, (6) compassion, (7) diligence
are held up as female accomplish
ments.-Shangh ai Mercury.

The Right Handlin & of Books.

A book should not be bent back till
the binding is cracked and loosened,
nor laid face downward on a chair or
table, nor left out over night in the
rain, nor should its leaves be turned
down to mark the place. Cultivate
good memory as to the page where
you leave off, and be independent of ex-
ternal aids.-Ladies' Home journal.

A Capital Idea.

AS the Public Square is worn down
to plain dirt. as matter of course it
will have to be repaired in some way.
A suggestion has been made that the
Council investigate the street work
recently done in Paris, KY, as it is
giving greater satisfaction than any
plan recently invented. The plan is
to cover the surface with thin lay
er of screenings (small stone broken
by the rock crushers) then sprinkle
with cheap oil, another layer of
screenings and then more oil. This
will beat down as hard as iron, and
the Oil completely does away with the
dust which is such nuisance and
causes the merchants SO much trouble.
This plan is said to be very cheap, and
The RECORD suggests that the COun-
Gil either write or send man to Paris
to investigate the idea. The sprink-
ling of an occasional cart load of rock
on the Square will do no good now, as
it is completely worn out all over, and
we understand the Paris idea will not
cost as much as it will to place as
much of the old time stone as will be
necessary to make the street what it
should be. 1t has to be fixed; so why
not do it in the right way? Patching
will do no more good, as there's moth
ing there to patch.

At the ssTe-He,, Age.

The behavior, or more properly
speaking, the miSbehaviOr at the eve
ming services in some of the local
churches recently is disgusting in the
extreme. Last Sunday night some of
the "Te-He" crowd talked aloud and
disturbed the entire congregation. If
the parents of these urchinS would
take more pains in their training, the
would probably learn to sit
still while in Gods house, but if the
proper training" were given, we
doubt if they could sit at all.

The local public should vote thanks
to Judge M. d. Hughes for canceling
the date with the "Uncle from New
York" company last week. AS adver-
tised in The RECORD, the show was
to appear at the local opera house
Thursday night, but Judge Hughes,
the clever manager Of the house, got
an inkling that the show was bum
and telephOned if they came he would
refuse to open the theatre to them.
He is working hard to TO give the peO-
pie only first-claSs entertainments, as
this move goes to prove.

Electric Railway.

Articles of Incorporation were filed
in Danville Monday organizing the
Danville Electric Power and Railway
Co. The capital stock is 1000 with
privilege to increase to 100000. The
company was organized for the pur-
pose of building and operating cleo
trio lines through and in Danville,
Junction City and Shelby City. 1t is
calculated that with all connections,
sidings and appliances, about eight
miles of line will be built and operated
in and between these three towns.
Passenger connections will be estab-
lished with all trains leaving Junction
City, but the principal object of the
promoters is to secure better facilities
for handling freight.

Scarcity of Homes.

Somerset JOurnal:-The cry for more
houses for people to live in seems al
most universal in a large portion of
Kentucky. There is house famine
in Danville, Lancaster, HarrOdSburg:
Lexington is short of houses for the
people, and in Somerset families are
doubled up in most uncomfortable
confusion. Will some practical ecOnO-
mist give this subject attention and
tell us why money is not invested in
homes to rent to the people who are
for them?

Crab Orchard, KY, Nov. 25, 1901.
EDITOR RECORD:
|, Everything is in readiness for the
assembling of the Kentucky Beagle
Club here this week, for a ten DAYS
hunt and field trials in this ideal place
for sport. Foxes, rabbits and quail
are abundant. Besides General Gentry,
of Lexington, has brought with him
four large red foxes and his famous
KansaSsjack rabbit, Admiral Schley, all
of which will be turned loose in broad
day light during the meeting. Hunt
ers with their packs began to arrive
week in advance and already three
preliminary skirmishes have taken
place. This morning eighteen rab-
bits were started in a field in full view
of the office, the chase being partici-
pated in by beagles of Col. John NJ. G. |
Watt, of Frankfort, and General
Gentry, of Lexington. The guests as
sembled ON knoll while the sport
progressed. Ten rabbits were brought
In, one, as large almost as grey fox,
going clear to Dix river and returning
with the beagles in hot pursuit, lay
down in the road exhausted, was
picked up and presented to a lady in
the party. The hunters thought the
big rabbit was fox and were given as
much sport as if he were.
Tomorrow and along during the
balance of the meeting a red fox will
be released. On Friday night General
Gentry will give big O'possum supper
with thirty-seven e'pOssums served
with old Virginia trimmings. Quail s

The growing Importance of the cat.
tie industry is recognized by the news
papers in the country, which are de-
voting more and more space to mat
ters Of interest relating to it. 1t was
not so many years ago that market re-
ports in the great dailies were practi-
cally confined to grain and produce.
Now almost all our western daily pa
pers report not only the cattle mar
ket, but all reporters are admonished
that anything relating to the cattle
industry is an item of news, and must
be gathered in and duly published as
such. There were never so many peO-
