cHAPERoNs FOR GIRLS.
When They Are About Their Charges Cast All Responsibility
 Upon Them.

Just so long as girl can cast re- sponsibility oHe her mother, her school or her chaperon she will do so. When her thoughtless actions bring unpleasant results she does not blame herself. Some one should have told her. Some one should have for- bidden her. It is the business of the powers that be to look after her, and if she falls upon evil days the fault is theirs, says Florence Reid Myrick, in Woman's Home Companion.
 But suppose she has no chaperon and is obliged to think out her own course of action. When she does im- prudent things, and is uncomfortable in consequence, she must blame just herself. After she has spent some bad half-hours in fruitless regretting she chooses her paths with more care.
 Every time a girl decides for her- self what is best for her to do or not to do she is stronger. This holds even if she does the wrong thing. Our mistakes teach us much. It is we'll for her to make small mistakes which do not count much. By these she will learn to avoid later errors which count great deal.

sweet mixture. The third night gem orally finishes the business. There is more whisky than molasses in the keg that night and Bruin finds it con- venient to lie down on the spot and sleep
 Shortly after sunrise the next morning the doctor wanders down that way and claims his prey. While yet unconscious from the effects of the liquor, 8 rifle ball crashes through Bruins brains. A few mus cular contortions and all is over so far as he is concerned. His skin will be exchanged by the doctor for a $25 draft, and more than one of them, perchance, may at this moment add charm to some cozy rooms in this city, says the Milwaukee Sentinel. X A well-known sawmiH owner, resid- ing near Waukesha, pursues a differ ent method to get his bear meat. The man takes a small beer keg, knocks out one end of it and then drives spikes through the rim, in ward and pointing toward the cen ter.
 This constitutes his trap. Filled partly with molasses or honey, he places the keg on a runway and the result is inevitable. The bear scents the bait, forces his head down on the very bottom of the keg and licks up the sweet stuff. In doing so the pails do not inconvenience him, but when he has had his fill and attempts to pull his head back, he finds himself in a sorry predicament. As soon as he feels the prick of a nail in his neck or behind his ears he lifts one of his powerful paws and gives the keg push so as to shove it away and off his head. That very act, however, settles his case. He has only sue ceeded in driving the nails deeper into his neck, and now, almost insane with pain and fright and blinded by the blood that runs into his eyes, he dashes around in a circle, vainly try ing to get away. Here he will col lide with a tree and there he will stumble and fall over a stump, and before long his strength gives way and he sinks down exhausted. An- other paroxysm of anger and fright follows when he hears the footsteps of the man who has trapped him, but the relentless rifle speedily ends his agony.

WAY STATIONS.

Between 1860 and 1870 British rail- ways increased 510 miles year. The present yearly increase is 2o1 miles year.
 In Japan 786 miles of railway owned by the Japanese government earns one-third more yearly than 2,942 miles owned by private com panies.
 The 12 railway companies of Eng land and Wales employ between them 312,OoO men. The Scotch and Irish companies employ 4o,oo0 men between them.
 Belgium has 291s miles of railway to every 100 square miles of surface, Great Britain comes next with F miles, and Germany third with 14 miles. The American proportion is six miles only.
 The art or science of reducing the weight of steel cars to the minimum point and of maximum loading ca- pacity has produced car weighing 15 tons that will carry load of 69 tons. Such ears are being turned out rapidly in one or two of the great steel mills of Pennsylvania.
 Remarkable progress is being made in locomotive construction by the in- crease of heating space. Imagine an intense fire 47 feet long by 50 feet wide and you have an idea of the enormous heat required to create steam to drive locomotive. The heating surface of some recently made engines of enormous capacity is 2,391 square feet.

Uncle Sam seems to have made paying hit in the new regulations for the examination of the personal bag gage of persons arriving from Europe at the port of New York. The collec- tor of customs was at the treasury de- partment this week, and he brought his report for the month of July, which tells it's own story of how the snug gling by our wealthy passengers to Europe has been flessened. In July, 1900, the number of messengers that arrived at the port was 13,557, and the duties collected on their baggage was only $1S,9I1. In July, 1901, there were II, ,442 and the duties collected amount ed to S71 1,456. There will probably new. be ahy system perfected that will stop all smuggling, but Assistant Secretary Spaulding of the treasury, who is in charge of all matters relat- ing. to customs, thinks the present sys-- tenn comes about as near to 1t as pos sible.

Farm hands in the west have got the union fever and an organization known as the Farm Laborers' union has been organized. The Outlook says that the union had it's origin in the system of employment agencies established in several centers by an anti-union con tractor to furnish farmers with the extra hands required to harvest their wheat. The men collected together at these agencies, saw that the farmers need of workers was greater than their own need of work. and agreed among themselves to unite in demanding $2.5O a day instead of $2. for the days work Sunrise to sundown during the har- vest season. The men already at work on various farms co-operated with the movement. and the farmers were oblig- ed to pay the S2.50 demanded or lose a good part of the crops. It is also stated that walking delegates have been employed by the Farm Laborers' union," and that the same kind of labor struggles that now go on in man ufaeturing industries are likely soon to prevail upon the farms. This predic- ton, however, is prudently limited to farms where large number of extra hands are required at special seasons. Fortunately, these farms are less nu- merous than they were a generation or two ago. The inventions of farm ma chinery have rendered the ordinary farmer relatively independent of out side help. and in the Middle states. where diversified farming Is the rule, there is rarely any need of importing gangs of men for special seasons. Even in the wheat district of the west, the diversified farm Is gaining steadily upon the single-crop farm. and with this gain the demand for extra laborers during the harvest season lessens. When employment Is steady. and the farm hand is engaged for the whole year: the personal relations between himself and his employer are too close to make the development of strong unionism possible.

It is held by the secretary of the treasury and the comptroller of the currency that our national banking laws cannot be extended to the Philip pines without q special act of con- gress. Consequently all applications for charters for national banks in rhe Philippines. a number of which have been received. are pigeonholed to await the action of congress, although it Is generally admitted that the es- tablishment of national banks in the Philippines would be great conven- fence for this government as well as for all Americans who are over there or have business interests there.

show q Remarkable Gain.

The census bureau has just given out a. statement showing the condi- tion of the manufacturing industries of the states of Idaho, Nevada and Wyoming. Idaho showed gain of 1ss per cent. over 1890 in the value of product, which was. $4,520, ,532. Wyo- ming's product was $4,301 ,240, a gain of s1 per cent. over 1890. The manu- facturing product of Wyoming was s1,643, ,675. This is slight improve ment over the showing of 1890. The principal manufactured product of Idaho in 1900 was lumber. The prin- cipal item in both Wyoming and Ne- -ada is the output of the railroad re- pair shops.

EASY BEAR HUNTING
One Wisconsin Man Makes Bruin
 Drunk and Helpless.
Another Has . More Ingenious and Cruel PIan-sweet-Loving Beasts Lured to Death by MoIasses
 Drugged with Whisky.

A few days ago Otis Harper, of Menominee, Wis, told story of two frappers. One of the finest bass fish ing grounds in Wisconsin is found in Post lake. This fact is one of the reasons that induced an old physi- elan to pull down his shingle in a Michigan town, give up his deacon ship and settle on the western banks of the lake. But ardent fisherman though he may be, the old doctor finds still greater delight in trapping bears, of which there are plenty in that locality. No one will deny that his method is original.
 Despite the fact that he is tee totaler from choice and conviction, every now and then the doctor comes to the railroad station near by and pays freight on few kegs of whisky and molasses. Of what quality, de- ponent sayeth not. For many miles around he knows every year runway and during the season he makes reg ular visits to them and chuckles to himself when he finds fresh track. That night Bruin will suddenly come across gallon jar half full of mo- lasses, an ill-boding prescription from the doctor. Of course he is too cautious an animal to tackle the for eign substance in the jar at once. He snuffs at it for awhile, but finally he tastes and pretty soon the contents of the jar have found a safe lodging place within the innermost recesses of his huge carcass. With deep grunt and a loud smack of satisfac- tion, Bruin trots cheerfully off, but soon he longs for a safe place in which to lie down and take nap. The fact of the matter is that he has little "jag.' But he doesn't know it. The next night to his surprise he again finds a keg with molasses in it. This time he does not seem to he's itate so long. but drinks down the

HOW GERMS MAY BE KILLED.
Various Kinds and Hev They Are Used.

Scientific men say that the disin- fectants most useful as germ killers are moist heat, such as is used in ical substances found by experiments to be germicides, says the Scotsman. Steam at PIP degrees Fahrenheit will kill germs of high resistance in five minutes. Dry, hot air at 2S4 de- grees, on the other hand, took four hours to effect the same end. It may be said that if articles of infected clothing are exposed to steam at 27O degrees for 15 minutes all germs are destroyed. These means, of course, apply to public disinfectors which lection of clothing, bedding and the like.
 The chemical disinfectants which are the most powerful are bichloride of mercury Ga poison), which in the proportion of one part to 1000 of water kills all germs Half an ounce to three gallons of water with a lit tie aniline blue added (to color the solution and prevent mistakes) and one ounce of hydrochloric acid to as- sist the action of the mercury makes the best disinfectant known. Only the public cannot be trusted to use a solution which is poisonous. Carbol- ic acid Is not a powerful disinfect- ant. Used in the proportion of five to 100 of water it will not kill all germs, and water will not take up more of the acid. Izal is not poison ous and is a good disinfectant. It is used in the proportion of one to 200 of water. Chloride of zinc Ca corro- sive poison) is disinfectant often used for disinfecting typhoid excre- tions.
