= She was a half-cast Jap, thoroughly
Americanized but not quite civilized
Her prior history is not important,
especially as no one was sure just how
much of the conflicting autobiography
she spun SO charmingly was begot OF
her abundant talent for fiction. Talent
she certainly possessed, as many OF
the current magazines testified month
ly. That was the reason Miss Sheldon

who have not vet gained glimpse OF

still further and direct cleanse thor

not to say futile.
Miss Sheldon, as before remarked,
had become a parsonage in that un-
certain domain. There was but one
drop of gall in her chalice OF
happiness as she sat in her hall bed
room one winter evening and lovingly
fingered some half dozen small envel-
opes. Her brown face was puckered
unpleasantly, as 1t was wont TO be
over the boarding-house coffee, and she
was indulging in monologue. habit
most helpful to an amateur story
teller.
Dinner and conversation; music and
gabble; tea and talk" she murmured
jerkily, slowly telling over the small
blue and white missives. Now, small
talk is my Waterloo. They expect me
to be fluent. All. II could only write
It down hrstl But how do l know what
they will speak to me about?' She
pondered deeply and dejectedly and
gradually a brilliant scheme unfolded
itself. She would converse alphabet
ically. Mondays her every remark
should begin with the letter "A;
Tuesdays. b." Wednesdays. &C, ct
cetera, beginning the second week with
the eighth letter OF the alphabet, until

Mrs. Van Gorden's dinner was the

Good Start for a Nonel.

The Hon. Sol Temple of Oklahoma
"one of the most notorious outlaws in
the southwest" grew weary of the
dungeon in Pond Creek While the
1ailer was at dinner Sol worked his
way through the corridor into the gun
room, where he selected various guns"
and goodly store of ammunition. When
the jailer came back. plethoric and
careless, Sol pulled gun on him, made
him march to Soils former cell and
locked him in. Then Sol asked all the
other prisoners to join him and escape
They were fellows of a mean spirit
and declined. Forth went Sol, full of
guns and courage, and merrily strobe

a look of reproach, half of anger, and

cry Miss Sheldon started after him,
but he would not look back.
That night a very disconsolate, for
eign-looking little figure rocked itself
back and forth in a huddled heap in

Slowly and tearfully she climbed

PRAIRIE FIRE GUARDS.

One of the methods of protecting
broad grass-lands from fire is to burn
q swath called "fire-guard" around
the area to be protected. A Montana
stockman suggests that this is a fns
opportunity for inventors to devise =
machine which. passing over the
ground like a horse-rake, shall burn
the grass clean from a space about
. to 10 feet in width. Already an ap-
paratus Of this kind has been invented,
using gasoline to set the grass on FIRE
and train of steel brushes to extin-
guish 1t before 1t has spread beyond
the porper limits, but the stockman
thinks that cheaper machine can be
made. Fire guards" so miles or more,
in length are desirable.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1901-05-07
KEEPS THE SMOKE OUT.

The main hindrance to the location
and extinction of fire is the enor-
nous quantity of smoke which pours
forth to suffocate the fireman who ven-
lures too close. and many fres obtain
great headway because it is impossible
to penetrate through the smoke and
place the stream of chemicals or water
Just where 1t will do the most good.
An inventor of San Francisco, CAL,
has patented an apparatus which, he
claims, will enable the fireman to en-
ter the building and go directly to the
FIRE, furnishing fresh air to him for
breathing, and at the same time pro-
tecing his eyes from the smoke. 1t
consists of mask or protector for the
mouth, nose and eyes, together with

sand and tn. suez Canal.

One of the problems which has given
the management of Suez canal much
trouble is that of the sand which blows
into 1t, adding to the dredging expens-
es. A considerable number Of plants
have been tried in the effort to fix the
sands SO that a comparatively small
quantity would be blown into the ca
nal. All of these plants have failed
except one, which. it is now believed,
will be quite effective in keeping the
sand in place. This large plant is the
casuarina tree. 1t thrives in the south
ern hemisphere, and grows well on
the sand banks that skirt the Suez
canal. 1t not only survives intense
drought, but also excessive humidity,
which is important, as the northern
part of the canal is subject to mum
dations at some periods and droughts
at other seasons OF the year. The roots
of this tree penetrate the sand so deep
ly that they tap subterranean sources
of water Many of the trees planted
twenty-five years ago have thrived so
we'll in their new habitat that they
are now over forty feet in height. All
who have studied the problem of sand
fixation are certain that this tree will
offer important resistance to the move
ment of sand along the canal. Steps
are being taken to plant it extensively

THE CAUSE OF BADNESS.

The hair of the head was evidently
intended by nature as protection to
the delicate brain substance, and 1t
would no doubt answer this purpose
admirably II it were given the oppor-
tunity, as we see 1t perversely do in
the case of savages, football players
and others who need such protection
little.
1t is generally supposed that bald
ness, like gray hair, is a necessary ac-
compartment of advancing age, but
tf4is is only because the older & man
is the more time he has had to neglect
and abuse his hair, and SO the more
likely he is to have lost II.
Some men are more prone to bald
ness than others because of thinness
OF the scalp, which interferes with the
lroper blood supply to the hair-roots.
This is often a family failing; but in
such cases badness might be prevent
ed or postponed for many years by
care. In a few instances the hair falls
out as result of some special disease.
but for the great majority of men
there is absolutely no reason why, IL
properly treated, the hair should not
last as long as the man.
The chief cause of badness is pres
sure by the hat, which constructs the
blood-vessels, and SO interferes with
the nutrition of tha hair-bulbs. 1t is
probable. also, that the shutting off
OF light and air by the hat helps the
mischief. An unhealthy condition of
the scalp results. the sign of which is
a plentiful amount Of dandruff
There are many facts which go to
prove the truth of this opinion. In the
first place, women rarely become bald.
They wear hats, 1t is true. but their
hats are not air-tight castings. nor do
they make pressure round the head
like a mans hat. Then badness rs
almost unknown among savages who
wear no hats. and is comparatively un-
common with men in the tropics,
where very light hats are worn.
Laborers are less prone to badness
than professional and business men.
This has led to the belief that brain
work favors badness by withdrawing
blood from the scalp, but this is only
self-fattery on the part OF those who
advance the theory. Laborers general
ly wear soft felt hats or caps, which
are apt to be pushed to the back OF
the head, so that the scalp gets plenty
Of light and air.
AS further proof. we nnd that the
baldest men usually have sufficient
hair at the back and on the sides of the
head below the hat line
The inference is plain-wear soft
hat or none at all II custom forbids
this, then the best a city man can do
is to wear his hat as little as possible.
and never to keep 1t on In the house or
once.

THE SIZE OF ocrAN.w.vrs

Among the most trustworthy scien-
tfc measurements of ocean waves are
those OF Lieutenant Paris of the
French navy. The highest waves meas
ured by him were in the Indian ocean.
between the Cape of Good Hope and
the Island of st. Paul. Thirty waves.
measured during a northwest gale
there, averaged 2sh feet in height, and
six of them, following one another
with beautiful regularity, were 37h
feet In height. Some still higher
waves were seen, but not measured.
In moderate breeze the length of =
wave is found to be about rs times its
height. but in a gale only 18 times.

Icem.n HAPPY and Polite.

An observant matron of some ex-
perience has made it a point to inquire
among a rather large circle of ac-
quaintances what sort of men the ice
men who have served them have been.
She was led to do this because the fact
burst upon her one day that all the
icemen she had seen were happy
natured, and within the limits of their
education, polite. no other class of
trades or serving people who come to
ones house." she said, have l found
so uniformly polite, good natured and
willing to be accommodating. l have
been unable to reach a conclusion as
to the reason for it, but it is a fact. And
all my friends whom l have asked
have said that the same was true in
their experience"

FISH THAT CHANGE COLOR.

1t has been found that certain
prawns. common along the coasts Of
England. change their color at least
twice every twenty-four hours, in or
der to harmonic with the stronger or
weaker light prevailing near the sur
face or in the deeper water. As eve-
ming approaches, these fish lose their
