The crowd that went to Hunting
don from here last Friday, includ-
ing the ball team, ran up against
Of Huntingdon's boasted
hospitality, and, Judging from the
expressions heard on their return,
the boys certainly have no desire
to repeat the experiment.
The game was IL to 10 in favor
Of Huntingdon.
1t is true the Huntingdon team
didn't have as soft a snap as they
did when they came here in May
for a match game. Still, there was
no excuse or occasion for the treat
ment they meted out to our boys,
whose conduct was above reproachs
and who certainly expected a little
civility as well as fair treatment.

association then adjourned to meet
at McIllwain August II, 1901.

COLLEGE BRED WOMEN.

The question of the college girl in society is of equal importance with that of the college man in business, for as business is the vocation of most men. so society" using the word in it's broadest sense and including in 1t all the sssocial'' relations, claims so much of the time of many women that the few who take to public careers can safely be left out of the discus sion. They are exceptional cases and do not affect the main point at issue. It is in her duties as friend, hostess. wife and mother that woman usually finds the larger part of her existence, and if her attractiveness and useful ness in the discharge of these duties are impaired by her devotion to purely intellectual pursuits, most men feel and express an unqualified dissatisfac ton.
 It is asserted that many college wo- men are found to lack that charm of manner and those graces of everyday life which men, desire and demand. A woman may be learned, but if she cannot talk small talk, which is the largest part of talk, if she cannot man. age crowd of men and women in her drawing room, if she is without social tact, and if she has no interest and skill in the small things of ordinary existence, but is continually leading the higher life, it is a sad but indis- putable fact that her men friends will, to use their own low expression, pass her up." They do not want that kind of woman.
 In a man all corresponding defects A.. his life work lies in other directions. This is perhaps exceedingly unjust, but like other things in this world, it's in- justice is no proof that it does not exist. A man who fails in his social relations may still be a useful person. Such is not the case with the vast ma iority of women.-Chicago Tribune.

THE CARE OF THE HAND.

Any extreme temperature. or either very hot or very cold water. is not good for the hands. Warm water is more cleansing than cold water. A dozen drops of the tincture of benzoin added to basin of warm water is ben eficial to the hands. Castle or one of the fine toilet soaps should be used. A good lather should be made and the hands thoroughly rubbed with it. A rubber flesh brush is a great comfort. A little bran or oatmeal if put in the water has softening effect and will make the skin velvety and pliable. Al mond meal is also excellent for this purpose. Care in drying the hands is essential to their good condition. es- pecially in winter. A soft towel will gather up all the moisture and should be used in between the fingers of each hand so that every part may be thor oughly dried. After drying the hands it is a good plan to rub in a little cold cream or almond oil, after which, if they are particularly sensitive, powder may be dusted over them.-Ladies Home Journal

The president, says an exchange, is known to be in quandary as to where to place Judge Taft. Personally he fayors sending him back to the Philip pines, but the secretary of war, who is a close friend of MT Roosevelt, is strongly opposed to the continuance of the Taft regime. He considers that the Taft commission has seriously failed in the difference it owes to Gen. eral Chaffee and the military branch of the service. Taft is too big man to yield supinely to the dictates of the bureaucrats in the war department. Secretary Root believes that if he could secure the appointment of a man at the head of the commission who would recognize in him the lord of his destinies there would be greater sub- seryiency shown to the secretary of war.

CHILDRENs WITTICIsMs.

Most of the witticisms attributed to children are apocryphal. Clearly truth, if not always stranger, is at any rate funnier than fiction, for all the stories which the lecturer told as true are con- siderably more amusing than the aver age of smart sayings reported from the nursery and the schoolroom. There is a school of education which maintains the curious principle that you should never laugh at what children say. It is to be hoped that none of these the orists are ever placed in such a posi- ton as the late Bishop of London was, when he spoke to some children about Our Feathered Friends.'' He asked who our feathered friends were, and q little girl replied, Angels Another of Dr MacNamara's guaranteed stories was that of child who was asked to define an optimist and a pessimist "An optinist is a man that attends to your eyes. A pessimist is q man that at- tends to your feet"
 Children's sayings are very often re- markable for simple directness which goes more straight to the heart of the matter than is possible for more com plex mind. Henry VIII. liked plenty of money and plenty of wives. and died of ulcers on the legs" Looking at him as man-and, after all. he was no more-those are the characteristics which were more strongly marked in him; and the climax is full of dramatic force. The sayings, too, of soma of them, throw a vivid light on the life of the class they come from. "Grass is what you have got to keep off.-Lon- don Daily News.

There is no more reason why con- gress should be represented at the cor onation of King Edward than that the British parliament should be repre- sented at the inauguration of one of our presidents. but the opportunity to spend a lot of public money for pri- vate pleasure is regarded by the re publicans as too good to be lost, hence the republican scheme to have congress provide for sending a committee of twelve, six senators and six represen- tatives. to the corenati tion and paying all their expenses. Democratic SUD- port is being sought for the scheme on the promise of giving them preportion- ate representation on the committee, but it is most sincerely to be hoped that the democrats in both senate and house will not only refuse to vote for such a waste of public money as this junket will be, but will refuse to serve on the committee, and throw the entire responsibility for it on the republicans. There never was time when demo- cratic senator or representative could serve his party better by watching, ex- posing and refusing to share in repub- lican schemes than will be offered dur ing the life of this congress.

General Miles is keeping pretty mum these days. He will not be all lowed to remain at the head of the army if he dares to challenge the right of the president to censure him for having stood up and said q few words in defense of a friend and a brave fellow officer, Rear Admiral Schley. That was the ultimatum of the admin istration that met General Miles when he returned to Washington from New York. Under the law the president has the authority to order General Miles placed on the retired list at any time, and the threat to use that au- thority was made to muzzle General Miles. In view of that threat it is not strange that General Miles should de cline to make any public statement at this time. He desires a chance to think and consult with his friends, who are numerous, and who will see that the matter is heard from again perhaps in congress, and certainly in the next national campaign.
Waterbury Democrat., 1901-12-31

There is now little doubt but that the senate will be compelled to mater tally revise the Philippine tariff bill which was passed by the house. The measure, as it stands, is receiving the condemnation of a large number of re- publicans, some of whom characterize it as protection run wild.'' The most ardent expansionists are not in favor of governing colonies along Spanish lines and a policy of oppression will not be tolerated even if it is dictated by the protected interests. It is be lieved that Judge Taft will make rep resentations at the white house as soon as he arrives in Washington which will insure the presidents SUD- port of tariff concessions to the Philip pines and which will offer an excuse for the senate to reverse the work of the lower house.

He was addressing woman's suffrage meeting in Leeds one afternoon, and he paid a graceful compliment to the eloquence of the Ia dies who had addressed the meeting He gallantly remarked on the great pleasure which it gives the other sex to listen to women talking.
 Pausing for a moment after this ob servation, Mir Gladstone, like his aud fence, was thrown into an unexpected state of merriment by a male voice which proceeded from the back of the hall, and proclaimed in the broadesi Yorkshire dialect, "Eh, lad, thou'rt mean wed yet, 1 see'st."

Rear Admiral Evans is authority for the statement that the recently ac- quired Pearl Harbor site in Hawaii is not surpassed by any naval station in the world. Army engineers are now engaged in cutting through the coral reef which bars the entrance to the harbor and when that is accom- plished and the harbor fortified, as will be done, the United States will possess naval base of great strategic value and a refuge for vessels where absolute safety from an enemy or the elements will at all times be assured.
