II is often said that one difference
between men and women is that with
men second thoughts are best, while
women are more likely to be right
when they act or speak upon the
first impulse; but there are some
things which even clever women can
not do perfectly without some prelim-
mary practice.
A lady whose husband is the editor
OF very small country paper said TO
him one day: "Type-sctting looks so
easy, | know | could do it just as well
as anything. Let me help"
Although the editor is his own fore
man and compositor, he didn't accept
this offer at once. But his wife was
in the Office alone when Il wedding no.
tlce was brought In.
"O!" she said. gleefully, 'I'll just set
this up and slip it in the form, and
won't George be surprised when he
sees 1t in print?"
1t therefore appeared as follows in
the next issue OF the paper:

According TO the indianapolis SEN
tinel, it is said the recommendation of
the Legislative Investigating Commit.
tee for an appropriation of $50 to buy
small looking glasses for the inmates
of the State Industrial School for Girls
was caused by the discovery that they
have not been permitted to have any
thing of the kind.
Under the rule of the superintendent
girls and children found with bit of
broken looking glass in their posses
sion received large number of de-
merit marks, this evidence of worldly
vanity being considered injurious to
their moral welfare. The voluntary
surrender of bit of broken looking
glass by girl who had accidentally
found II was construed as evidence of
moral progress and rewarded by num-
erous merit marks. AS result the
girls cleansed their faces and crimped
their hair by polished surfaces of tin
or wood. though the crlmping of the
hair was also punished by demerit
marks. Protests by some of the man
ayers against these rules were OF no
avail.
AS the Legislature Committee does
not see any moral menace to the girls
In the use of little looking glass II Is
probable the rule will be changed.

After the battle of Colenso, says
Richard Harding Davis. in Every.
body's Magazine. General Butler raised
a very pretty point. and aroused an in
teresting discussion by promulgating
the theory. that the soldier who initi-
ates deserves more credit than the one
who simply obeys orders. In his Of
ficial report of the battle he rucom-
mended for the Victoria Cross rne
three officers who had voluntarily rid
den forward to endeavor to save the
guns. but withheld d like recommen.
dalton from one of his own staff. who
at his command had made exactly the
same attempt. General Butler ex-
planned that though all four had shown
equal courage. he was forced to "dif-
ferentiate" In bestowing honors be-
tween the three who had volunteered
and the one who had done what lie
had been ordered to do.

The leading &c illogical discovery Of
the nineteenth century has been the
establishment of the recent occurrence
in the north temperate zone of gla-
cial epoch. 1t is of infinite Importance
geologically to learn that not so long
ago, as geologists reckon time, the
greater part of Europe and North
America was buried under ice. In
short, we have learned something
about our "ice age" There are few
regions in our own country in which
the evidence of former glaciers Is not
now visible.
Twenty thousand years ago. there
fore, biologists believe, the zone in
which we live was so swamped with
ice that the existence of animal or
vegetable life would plainly have been
impossible, and the implications of this
are as important as the fact itself.
Thus it becomes plain that the rela.
tive climates of different sections of
the globe correspond TO no fixed stand
ard. The arctic circle was once mild
ana temperate. the present north tenn
perate zone" formerly solid cake of
inhospitable ice. Greenland, ii should
be noted, is at present passing through
its ''ice age"
The ice period in our own quarter of
the globe, of which you may see evil
dences in the ''glaclal striae" visible
on rocky surfaces In so many sections,
Is roughly computed to have lasted
some $4,000 years. This makes our
vegetable and animal life seem of sur
prsingly recent origin in comparison

SWEET lpoLATRY.

Deep In a dreamy, ancient wood.
Wheif once a mighty temple stood
In grandeur md the fertile lands,
A ruin centuries old now stands.
It's ciumbled walls meath mosses green
so thickly buried scarce 'tis seen.
Its columns fanen to decay;
IS gfandeur long since passed away.
Amid this wreck. triumphant still
|Oer Time, which thus hath worked its
will
Upon this temple. carved in stone,
An ancient idol stands alone;
Sits pensive on its granite throne,
With lichens thickly overgrown.
On ei her side the forest dank.
With tangled brake and creepers rank
Bars rny seeking 20 intrude
Upon the idols solitude.
Above twines many leafy limb
To f0cm covering for him.
Below cen at it's granite base.
A pool filings back the idols face.
And from green pads upon it spread
The stately lotus rears its head.
There in its dreamy solitude.
A thousand years the god hath stood.
A thousand years, each summer through,
The lctus' heart hath proven true:
Hath Dreathed the fragrance of it's love
TO please that stony face above
While stands the image in the grove
That loyal flower will prove ite love,
Though vain its efforts to begule.
lt aye will strive to win the smile
A fate true love hath often known
To waite its sweetness on stone

Malmaison. the old chateau near
Paris once occupied by the first Ma
poleon and his discarded wife, Joseph
inc de Beauharnais, has now been COM
pletcly restored, thanks to the munifi-
cence of NJ. Osiris. The residence was
badly damaged during the German In
vaslon and also during the commune
OF 1871. For years it was in dilapi-
dated condition, but the restorers have
done their work well. The grand salon,
decorated long ago by Percier and Fon-
talne. has been successfully treated by
NJ. Jambon, who obtained many valu-
able hints from an old water color
drawing of the rooms in the possession
of one of Fontalnes descendants. M.
Osiris has given over Malmaison to
the State. which will have to provide
the furniture and hangings, and to
turn the palace into a museum Of Ma
poleonic relics.-Paris Correspondence

Dutch Saunders and Sadie Ransom,

which he had been favored were not
