THE ovER-TRAINED NURSE.
0fttimes Her Mechanical DepOrt-
ment Irritates Patients.

Where the patient is a man, and not
critically i'll, the typical trained young
woman is often a source of irritation.
Few men can endure the restraint which
her presence imposes. She shows every
mark of having been cast in a mold, and
Of being entirely artificial. Her fixed
and restrained smile indicates only sim
ulated amiability. The precision with
which her hair is brushed back under her
impossibly neat cap; her noiseless and
ghostlike glide; her businesslike and un-
feeling administration of drops and pow
ders with inhuman regularity and with
out the possibility of a mistake; her prac-
ticed look of celestial goodness and super
human wisdom-alI these are too unlike
what is looked for from the spontaneous
and sympathetic woman of the minister
ing angel kind. To the average man who
is not too sick to be impressed by his sur
roundings this figure of mechanical per-
fection is more disturbing than would be
tipsy coal HEAVIER in the sick chamber.
So perfect creature spoils all mans 5
sickness. He can make no appeal TO her
sympathy-cannot plead for delay when
the nauseous dose is due, or conduct him
self like spoiled child which is one of
the compensations of illness TO a man
Perhaps he may be disappointed, too.
When trained nurse is suggested TO the
inexperienced male he may have visions
OF a young woman with human qualities
whose feelings VIII be touched by suffer
ing; whose gentle hand will smooth the
pillow and cool the fevered brow, and
that sort of sentimental thing. Only OBJ
servant and inexperienced wives know
how sentimental the most practical of
men-even bank president-may be after
business hours. When the male patient
finds himself in the hands of a sclf-con-
tanned and unimpresionable young wo-
man, as exact and methodical and unsyn-
pathetic as machine and as dead to his
personality as a wooden Indian, he is dis
posed TO be irritable. However efficient
she may be, there are circumstances in
which the trained nurse may be as op-
pressive as was the red-nosed fat old

or fastens them to a swaying grass. In
these gelatine globuIes are the tiny black
eggs. Then Mr.. Frog visits this strange
bouquet of eggs with paternal instinct,
they are fertilized and soon begin to grow
piacker and larger. 1t is a careless method
of propagation, but the frogs have proven
that it is successful. There are always
plenty of frogs TO bear evidence to the
efficiency of this method.
Some men, like some frogs, never get
beyond the tadpole epoch In either case
IL Is blessing for mankind or for frog
kind The tadpole who cannot outgrow his
tail would never make a worthy frog;
the child who cannot outgrow his baby
mood would never make a true man. The
passing of those that drop by the wayside
gives room for those that are forging
ahead. The element consumed is different
but the theory is parallel. The frog which
thrives gets more water in the pond or
mud in it's bottom, and the baby that
survives infanthood gets more breathing
space in the parent home and more of
the good things in the great distribution
of time.
It would be wise thing for more peo-
pie to observe the frog. His legs are les
sons, and his activity is inspiration. IL
more men were frogs there would be not
so many sluggards. and there would not
he so many men, which, in this age of
crowded professions, crowded arts, and
crowded fields and factories, would be a
consummation devotedly wished for by
many. Here again is a lesson from the
frog. When his hole runs dry. when his
pond is overstocked and overstirred is its
bottom mud. he leaps upon the bank. cuts
across the greensward, and dives into
other waters, where are fewer frogs and
more opportunities.
From the frogs point of view this Is
nothing more than jumping at an op-
portunity. Or going at things head-first

its eyes distend enormously and it

thrives on nuts, carrots. dates, and

however, in which most fanciers take
an interest-the many varieties of self
colors, broken coIors,' even colors,
and so-calIed Dutch marked colors.
1.-The self-colors include sables, or
anges. albinos, blacks, creams, choco-
latcs, silvers, blues, etc. Broken colors
depend upon a patching of color upon
a white ground. Even colors depend
for their type upon even marking upon
a white ground, following the Dutch
rabbit marking. The attempt is being
made to breed tortoise shell, but it is
found very difficult. Among beautiful
and, to fanciers, well-known varieties
of fancy mice, would instance our own
white-footed mice, the Egyptian ger
bill, the Barbary mouse, the Jerboos the
Hamsters, the voles. and the exquisite
Norwegian Jennings, all of which are
at present. believe, confined to private
collections. Mouse clubs, of which the
British Mouse Club is a model, are
starting up in England and this coun-

mice will soon be universally regard

FRENCH TICKET SPECULATION.
Cheaper on the Sidewalk Than Mt
the Box Office.

New Yorkers accustomed TO the tyranny
of the ticket spectators are naturally
astonished when informed that there
once lived a man who sold theatre tickets
cheaper on the sidewalk than they could
be bought inside the theatre, and that he
made a fortune by his singular industry.
Naturally he did not live in this city, nor,
Indeed, in the United States. He died the
other day where he had lived. in Paris.
and with the departure of old Cheaper
on the Outside" as he was commonly
called, well-kDown figure of boulevard
life disappeared.
This was Paul Planchet, one of Paris
principal chefs de claque, who left be
hind him a fortune of more than 100000.
The compensation of the leader of the
hired applauders in Paris theatre is of
two kinds He receives from certain
actors who want to be sure of a round of
applause at their entrance and exit a
fixed weekly sum He also receives from
the management n certain number Of
tickets, with which he pays MS cohorts
or disposes of as he may desire.
But his supply Of tickets is not limited
TO this source The French dramatists
get, in addition to a certain percehlAse
Of the receipts, a regular allowance of
tickets 1t was originally supposed that
these went to the author for the use of
his friends; but nowadays they re sold
sell them at prices determined by the
success of the piece. In most cases these
tickets are sold at less than box Office
rates.
In this way Planchet accumulated his
fortune One could nearly always set
from him tickets at less than the regular
rate Planchet also operated on larger
scale at times. He was a Spectator in
tickets on a wholesale basis When
theatre was going TO mount new play
and the manager needed money Planchet
would buy in advance and pay for block
of several thousand seats to be redeemed
bv the management at a small rebate in
ase he could not sell them. He, of
course, lost in case of failure, but his
profits in the event of success were great
enough to compensate him for the risk
he took.
IL was in this way thai SO many of the
theatre managers of Paris became debtors
10 their claque leaders that they had to
take them into partnership, and to this
necessity is attributed in a measure the
survival of the claque in the face of SO
much abuse. The men of whom Planchet
was the most noted example have money
always, but that is by no means the in
variable condition of the Paris theatrical
director.
IL is said that only four plays in the
past decade have been able to attract
the public at the regular theatre rates.
These were Mime. Sans Gene. "Cyrano

MINES WORKED BY WOMEN.
Primitive Methods Used in West
Africa.

a French Consul, says Mining and Me-
tallurgy," IN a re ent report, gives an
interesting description of the crude meth
DDS of placer mining used in the French
colony of Bambuk, in West Africa. The
work is done almost entirely by the na-
tive women of the colony.
The women are provided, for the per-
formance of this work, with a certain
number of calabashes filled with gold
bearing earth, generally two or three at
a time, large calabash filled with water
and shell similar 10 that Of a mollusk.
They usually work in an erect position,
the washing of two calabashes requiring
about ten or twelve minutes.
Taking a calabash about two-thirds
full of earth, the gold-washer fills the
remaining space with water and agitates
the mixture vigorously with one hand, re-
moving such pebbles as may be encounter
ed. The caIabash is then filled up with
water and the mixture is churned as but
ter Is churned, the gravel being removed
and thrown away from time to time and
water being added until the receptacle
remains about one-third full of a very thin
mud She then takes the calabash be-
tween the palms Of her hands and i'm
parts TO it an oscilating motion In order
to precipitate the metal, and the wash
ing water is then poured off. More water
is then added in small quantities and the
rotary motion continued until the bottom
of the calabash contains nothing but
fine sand mixed with black powder of
sesqui-oxide of iron The washer then
turns the contents with quick movement
into a little calabash and commences
the operation again with new lot of
earth.
When the portion Of the earth assign
ed to the woman has all been treated
thus, she takes up the little calabash and,
If necessary, clarifies the water and re-
duces il TO a minimum quantity, causing
the sand which is let behind to collect
