High Mountains of the Moon

The Leibnitz range attains enormous
attitudes above the average level of the
moons surface and is sometimes seen
projected far beyond the regular curva.
ture of disk. thus destroying the circu.
lar contour and giving ii notched or
serrated aspect. Several of the peaks
of these southern mountains measure
10000 feet in altitude, while one has
been estimated to attain the great
height Of 10000 feet. All the chief
mountains of the moon which can be
seen from the earth with n telescope
have had their heights ascertained. The
German observers. Beer and Maedler,
have calculated the height of no fewer
than 1.095 lunar mountains. The Do
riel mountains supply an instance of
great elevation. the peaks of the three
leading ones being between $4,000 and
10000 feet high. Among other lunar
peaks may he mentioned Huyghens,
81 900 feet: IIadley. 5000 feet: Brad.
ley, 1900 feet. and Wolf. 1000 feet.

She went to see the agent again and
asked il she could send her two boys

not, and, rs might he expected, she
asked why. He couldn't make her
understand just why. and when she
asked him If the company never let
anybody go along with the goods he
said that they did with stock. "If you
were shipping live stock that needed
tending, we would do it. Now, you
haven't COW or horse or pig, and there

reminded him Of what he had said and
told him that she had paid 1928 for the
pig for that purpose, and he ought &c

DRESS UP FOR SUICIDE.
Said To BE an InvarinbIe Rule with
Women Seeking Death.

IF | should ever be called upon to
furnish indisputable proof of the in.
herent pride of woman" said a police
sergeant, IL would point at once to her
invariable rule of dressing up in her
best clothes when she goes out to com
init suicide. In my experience on the
force | have had occasion to handle q
good many suicides and afterward in.
vestigate their personal affairs, and in
every instance | have found that the
poor unfortunates prepared themselves
for death by donning their best bib and
tucker.
The majority of the printed reports
of suicides say that the clothes of the
dead woman were good or well made
or elegant If the woman contemplate
ing suicide owns silk waist, she
wears it. Her broadcloth skirt and silk
petticoat naturally go with this gar.
ment. and she selects her best shoes.
81 have looked up the history of
many of these respectfully clad suicides
and have found that they owned but
one gown with which they could make
decent appearance on the street and
that that one good dress was chosen
without exception as the appropriate
garb in which to make the exit from
this worlds stage. 1t makes no differ.
ence what manner of death Is chosen,
the costume is carefully selected.
Let woman sleep her life away un.
der the influence of drugs or burn her
soul out with acids or sink into the
slime of the river, she clothes herself in
her most becoming garments and seeks
the end with apparent tranquility.
Her instinct of gentility and elegance
in clothes Is with her to the last, and
even in the face of death she shrinks
from public appearance in unbecom.

LEARNING A TRADE.
The Danger of Making "a Specialist
OF "A leriuner

Ii Is generally 10 the interest OF an
employer that IN apprentice should not
learn his trade as whole. but only a
little section of IL. says Joseph Horner
In Casters Magazine. II pays better
to keep n lad repeating the perform.
ance of one section of his craft than
to teach him all. More money Is made.
But the apprentice becomes n young
specialist, prig in his teens, cocksure
over some little piece of handicraft at
which he may earn something over his
normal wages, and many lad does
not become disillusioned until he has to
face the world and try his luck in
other shops
And therefore the best shops in
which TO place a lad are not the big es-
Establishments, but the small ones, where
every class OF work is done and where
tools and appliances are often scant.
A lad will learn more In these than in
those replete with every appliance and
minutely subdivided into sections and
groups.
The best training for a lad today is
that which he can evolve for himself.
The greatest evil that can befall him
is to become specialist and nothing
more while in his teens. Yet that is
what must happen if he spends several
years tending machines or doing re-
petitlve, unvarying tasks i'm one big es.
Establishment.
The best training, therefore, today is
that gathered by the peripatetic youth.
If lad cannot gain experience in one
place, he should move about, gathering
as much as he can accumulate with
one firm, then OH to another, and at.
tending training schools as opportunity
offers. His views become broadened,
he becomes self reliant, and in time,
having found his true work, he may
settle down as Il specialist.

Fine Costumes and Splendid Acting at
The Toler.
Last evening and also Monday evening.
the immense auditorium at the ToIer op-
era house was crowded down stairs and
nearly filed in the galleries; present TO
witness for the first time in Wichita
Daudet's famous phantasy, ''Sappho."
This is by far the best play this fine
company have put on and il brought out
all the very best that is in each. Every
one who saw "Ingomar'' enjoyed 1t con-
pletely and saw not only the merits OF
the piece, but fhe special ability Of the
actors But in "Sappho' they excelled
everything they have yet done here.
Madeline Mcdonald, as Fannie, who
posed for the nude statuary OF "Sappho''
and was later discovered by her lover,
Jean, who had been disgraced and aban-
doned by his feeniIy because OF her, WAS
at her very best, and her fine work
brought forth most sppreciative applause
The passions Of love. bafied hate. morti-
fcation and ambition all are displayed
with such natural ease, and these with q
grace and form that are matchless won
for her the continued admiration OF her
audience. AIE Preston, as Jean. and all
the minor parts were also fine and this
evening promises to see a still more
crowded house. The stage setting and
the scenery and the costuning are all
very much superior to anything SO far
during the summer season there. Sappho
will be played again tonight with q
change on Thursday night.
