1T is much easier for a woman to
feel that she has pure heart when
she has got silk petticoat on.
Asso as woman belongs to two
clubs she has so much to do saving the
country that she forgets how to cook.
There is particular. feeling of horror
that never comes to a woman except
when the company to dinner gets the
cracked tea saucer.
No woman can call on another
woman half an hour until they are
both talking in whispers about some
man that Everybody is talking

How Is This !?

The truth of the following marvel
lous story is said to be voucbed for by
prominent and well known citizens of
Albemarle county:
"a strange story of the fulfillment of
a prediction is related by a correspon-
dent of the New York Sun He says
that some years ago a murder Was com.
mitted in the Shenandoah Valley and
suspicion fell upon merchant of Roa.
noke, who was charged with the crime,
At his trial the prisoner vigorously
protested his innocence, but the cir
c1mstantial evidence was strong and
be was convicted and sentenced to be
b anged He maintained to the last
that he was not guilty, and declared
that the prayers he had offered for vim
dication would be answered after bis
death. On the scaffold he told the
people to watch the trees in the neigh
borhood. for they would point the way
to the dwelling of the real murderer
His friends had not much faith in his
prediction, but watch was kept on
the trees. 1t was noticed that cedar
tree near the Jail died soon after the
execution, and the blighta extended
from tree to tree across the country in
a straight line like man makes il
blazing a way through the woods. The
line Of dead trees stoppedsat the gate
of mans house who had never beer
suspected of the crime. The strange
indication caused so much talk that
the man was arrested and later con
fessed his guilt. The narrator Of this
story declares that it is absolutel!

Gifts.

The Modern Woman complained
that she was being Disseminated
against.
"Now, there was the Gorgon Med
usa - she exclaimed. "YOu endowed
her with such gifts that when her enc
mics came into her presence they turn
ed to stone!''
"Well, you've got no kick coming -
retorted Fate, with affected asperity,
for whenever your enemies pass you
they turn to RUBBER"
At this the Modern Woman flew in
to rage and declared that she would
not be put off with mere evasion.

Nhe Ship Subsidy Bi1Fs influence In
Keeping Old Ships Afioat.
If further proof were needed that
the object of these subsidy bills is not
to secure new or better or faster ship
ping, but to enrich the gentlemen who
own the vessels to fit which the bill
was drawn, it would be furnished by
United States Shipping Commissioner
Chamberlains statement on page 1913
of his report for 1900:
"Of the foreign built steamships eligible SIX
with gross tonnage of 22, 2SS, which would have
earned $05,575 and STA ,32O under the senate and
house bills respectively, built prior to 1881.
Ihlrty-fve American steam vessels of 60,136 TONS
entitled to $27s,s44 under the senate bill and
$215546 under the house bill, built before
1881. The total subsidy proposed 10 be paid to
Uessels built before 1881 is thus under the SEN
ate bill SSH 40 and under the house bill $780,,
$780,
That is to say, some 100000 is to be
paid by the government to keep afioat
shipping already more than 20 years
old and which by every rule of mari
time accounting has already been
charged off to profit and loss. Indeed
the International itself, as soon as the
Paris is again in commission, would
draw $750,O0O on ships u and IS years
old respectively.
While Mr.. Chamberlain was on this
subject he might have added greatly to
the interest of his report, for the fact
is that as nearly as may be one-half
the entire subsidy which would be paid
for years to come on vessels now more
than ten years old, including solace
given the worm eaten years of such ves-
sells as the following whose names,

There Ia q class of women who are
constantly in the public eye, but who
are not popular either with their own
or the other sex. One OF these was
under discussion In street car tho
other day, her critics being women,
says the Chicago Chronicle.
"She calls herself hustler" the
one In the sable cape said. "She talks
as much about the strenuous life al
Teddy Roosevelt, and all she ever
does Is to talk. She attends clubs
meetings and writes papers on inn
possible subjects and lectures on re-
form and educating the masses to
sanitation, but never saw her do n
stroke OF practical work in my life"
"She never does any. that's Why"
replied the woman in black, she
even buys her pies and cakes at
bakery, so that the cook can help the
nurse take care OF the children while
