SENSIBLE WOMEN UNPOPULAR
They Earn the Animosity of Members
of Their Own Sex Because They
Are Not Fashionable.

Of late it has come to be regarded
.as misfortune for woman to be
sensible, says the Chicago Chronicle.
She is not in the fashion. and there
fore might as we'll be out of the
world. One of these sensible women
had cook whom she cherished above
rubies-cherished to such an extent,
indeed, that sometimes she was moved
to hustle out to the kitchen and de-
clare that Kate looked pale and was
in need of instant rest. Whereupon
Katie was bundled off upstairs and
milady herself would finish washing
the dishes or making the cake.
After four years of such humane
treatment Mrs. Cook walked off with
out word of warning one day and
her employer, descending from her
stills and becoming just an ordinary
person, wept and declared the I'M
grateful one "a mean old thing"
The sensible woman is fearfully
hard on romances. She picks the
prettiest love story in the world so
to pieces that it looks like even less
than 80 cents when she gets through
with it.
Each bit of sentiment she dissects
with the aid of her merciless prac-
tical sense and points out how it is
founded on selfishness and will grad
ually grow into Indifference. There
is fearful reason in all she says that
makes deep impression on her
hearer and perhaps leads that young
woman to desperate and foolish deeds
or remuneration.
Once the sensible woman entered a
house of sorrow A young girl lay
dying there and her family were gath
cred at her bedside, when the prac-
teal woman came to the door and
called out one of the weeping ones.
Marie" she said, in her brisk tones,
cit is evident Jennie can last but a
short time. Don't you think I'd bet
ter have the drawing-room swept so
that she may be laid out in it?"

BLIND POSTMASTER BAXTER.
He Also Runs General Supply Store
and Goes After the Cows at
Milking Time.

The little village of Lexington, on
Clear lake, LIE Sueur county, Mimi.
claims it has the only blind postmas-
ter in Minnesota, and probably the
only one in the United States, says
the Minneapolis Tribune.
For more than 80 years Hiram Bax-
ter has served the people of the vii
lage and surrounding country to their
entire satisfaction, and nearly all of
this time he has been blind. He a.so
has a small general store and al i'm,
where he keeps the traveller who
needs a meal or nights lodging. He
has a wonderful memory and can al
ways tell if there is paper or let
ter for anyone who calls. His wife or
his son calls the names when the mail
is distributed and a letter may lie
in the office for two weeks, but when
the proper person calls he remem-
bers it. He can put his hand on any
one of the 100 boxes and give the
name of the owner.
In the store he has a more accu-
rate knowledge of where everything
is than a person who can see. It
makes no difference what you ask for,
he can put his hand on it if it is in
stock, and he will measure ten yards
of calico or gallon of oil with equal
facility, and will not make a mistake
in weighing nickel's worth of candy
or a dollars worth of sugar. His
hearing has been cultivated until he
knews every one of his regular Gus
toners by their voice, and when one
of them calls out: "Any mail for NE p
he answers yes or no with as much as
surance as if he saw them. In money
matters he favors coin and can count
it almost as rapidly as person with
good sight.
He keeps several COWS and cares for
them himself. Each cow wears bell,
and by this means he finds and drives
them up from large woodland pas
ture. They seem to realize that he is
different from other people, and no
matter how much he runs against or
stumbles over them they never move.
He is wonderful example of what a
man can do in business way who has
lost his sight

THE WORD "CHEMAWA."
One Pioneer of Oregon Thinks 1t
Probably Is Chinook for
True Talk"

Anent the discussion of the meaning
of the word ''Chemawa," the site of the
Indian training school, Thomas n.
Strong, who was asked for his opinion,
said, according to the Portland Ore
gonian:
Il am ignorant of how Chemawa
was named, but always had the impress
sion that it was a misspelling of the
two words che wawa. The Chinook
jargon was spoken different in differ
ent tribes, and very often foreign
words would creep into it from the
English and Indian languages where
it was used. The common expression
for good talk would be close wawa,
but the words che wawa' were often
used in somewhat the same sense but
meaning perhaps more particularly
true talk so that che wawa would in
some places where have heard the jar
gon used mean good talk or perfectly
true talk
GAS illustrating this use of local
words in the Chinook jargon Tacoma
was often used by the Indians near
Puget sound as meaning white noun
tain. From the summit of the Cascade
mountains Puget sound Indian once
pointed out Mount Baker to me as
'Okook Tacoma (the White mountain1
and as this was very likely done occa-
sionally with Mount Rainier the idea
grew up in some quarters that Tacoma
was the Indian name of that mountain.
Neither north nor south of Puget
sound have I ever heard the word Ia
coma used for any purpose. I do not
know where anyone would get Informal
ton upon this subject Of the name of
the Indian school unless he went back
to the department that named it,

FRANCE NOT DEGENERATE.
Max O'ReII Denies the Charge
That His Country Is Retro
grading.

In spite of what may have been
written to the contrary, France has,
ever since the disaster of 1870, quiet
ly and steadily regenerated herself,
and succeeded in organizing an army
which the greatest German military
authorities declare to be the most
formidable and the best armed in Eu-
rope; and l will add this, in Justice
to France, that she has not gathered
together and trained that army of
100000 men to attack anyone, but
to protect herself, says Max O'Rell
in the London Mail.
The Germans know all this, and
strain every nerve to remain at peace
with US, seeking our friendship more
and more every day. That army in
the hands Of a Napoleon Ill might
be danger to Europe, but not in the
hands OF nation now mistress of her
destinies, who would use it only if
compelled to do so for the defense
of her honor or her territory De-

THE WRONG BOTTLE.
Why One Chicago Young WOman's
Hands Are B1istered to q
Lobster Hue.

Grace is afflicted with a sensitive
skin, and when cold weather arrives
uses up more bottles of soothing To-
ton for her poor, chapped hands
than would stock a small shop. The
last thing before she goes to sleep
she coddles her white digits with a
liberal dose of the liquid that best
suits them. She did this the other
night and, says the Chicago Daily
News, as she rubbed it I'M observed
that it took a long time to dry. Final
ly she gave it up. She had a most
uncomfortable night. Whenever she
moved, the sheets stuck to her hands
and she fought them off much after
the fashion of cat standing on four
pieces of sticky fly paper. Once her
hair got tangled round her left hand,
and it nearly came out by the roots
before she loosened it. This thor
oughly awoke her, and she got up
and lighted the gas. She had the
most remarka ble-looking pair of
hands in Cook county. 1nis was not
altogether surprising, when she found
she had used the bottle of furniture
polish for lotion. And, not content
to let bad state of affairs alone, she
put on kerosene to take off the pol
ish. The kerosene has blistered both
hands to a lobster hue, and she has
three card parties on hand, and is 60

THE DECAY OF COQUETRY.
1t Is Proven by the LanGuid Interest
Women Take in Fans
Nowadays.
There is a DANGER indeed yeryrea1

There is a danger, indeed. very real
danger, that fans large or small, Of
net, lace or feathers, will presently
pass into the limbo of things useless
and unreverenced, says the Washing
ton Star. This undoubtedly is an evil
dence of the decay of coquetry, none
the less do women appear to have put
their fans by and seem neither to know
nor to care what the fashion in these
pretty trifes may be.
There is a languid interest taken in
fans of medium size, of gauze and
painted with scenes from the Aerthu-
rian legends. Some of these are ex-
ceedingly beautiful. for by judicious
use of gold thread and spangles the
splendors of Guinevere's wedding
gown, the glitter of the tourney and
the bravery of Tristan's Launcelot's
fine armor is rendered very realistic.
There are few fans imported from
Paris that create admiring attention.
These are not very large nor very small
and their sticks are of dark brown
shell. Upon the sticks lace spider
webs are drawn. In the center of the
web sits a wondrous gold spider,
watching, with cruel, bright, ruby or
emerald eyes. the charming antics of
a plump cupid, half gold, half lace,
who has fallen into his spidership' S
fairy trap.
Cheap paper fans. stretched on sticks
of gilded wood, show clever dashing
colorful sketches from Henry ", from
L'Aiglon and other popular plays of
the season, and, when a fan is carried
at all, it must not be suspended from
the waist. shoulder or throat by a
rope of pearls or ribbon. Such was
the pretty fashion two seasons ago.
Now it is the mode for diner or dancer
to hold her fan in her hand. and man
ipulate it with a view to artfully dis
playing it's intrinsic value and artistic
charms.
