Mandy had been feeling along the
shelf for the candle that year in and
year out stood there like tallow SEN
tinel, and had never failed her in the
darkest night. She found it, but not
in its old place; it had been moved a
hairs breadth to the left and felt
queer to her touch.

been run in the tin mold behind the
pantry door. 1t was gorgeous

the old man, putting on his glasses to
take a better look at the intruder.
Gosh! What lookin' candle!"
AS its rays diffused a light through
the room the two old people began to
investigate. They looked around, then
into each others faces, and both fear
and wonderment were expressed in
their startled glanccs

as very funny.
Meanwhile the truth had revealed
itself in part to the old people, and
holding aloft the flaring wax candle
they took an inventory of the new fur

the paintings on the walls. 1t was

1t was near daylight when the two
old people had seen the last of their
new possessions, and arranged them TO
their entire satisfaction. The fancy
candle had burned down to mound of
green and yellow wax, and been re.
placed by a straight, upcompromising
tallow homemade, that shed serene
light on two old faces that looked very
tired, but wore a conscious expression
of peace and triumph. And even in
their dreams they smiled.

The Conrdng Engineer.

The engineer of the twentieth cen
 tury will have need of all the knowl- edge education can bring. The nine teenth century skinned the cream of invention; what was on the surface
 has been appropriated. James Watt made it impossible anyone should have quite so brilliant record as himself, and yet his master stroke of invention, the separate condenser, did not need abstruse scientific attain ments, although Watt was essential ly scientific in his methods. So each successful worker in tAe field of in- vention does something to exhaust the soil and render needful higher fertilization for further productive ness. New yistas, however, are con stantly being opened out, and, to con tinue our analogy, we have. something like the rotation of crops in the changing instruments by which the engineer attains his ends. It is be- coming more and more evident that the day of the uneducated engineer, 5 the man who by mere force of genius accomplished results which have changed the face of nature, is being replaced by the epoch of the skilled master of methods in applied science, The Engineer.

THE NEW ENGLAND WOMAN
Not Prepossessing Figure in Out line or Motion, According to
 This Writer.

In body she belongs to a people which has spent it's physical force, and lacks vitality. says Kate Steph1 ems, in Atlantic. She is slight. There is lack of adipose tissue-reserve force-throughout her frame. Her lungs are apt to be weak, waist normal and hips undersized.
 She is awkward in movement. Her climate has not suffered her relaxa- ton and the ease and curve of mo- tion that more enervating air i'm parts. This is seen even in public. In walking she holds her elbows set in an angle, and sometimes she steps out in the tilt of the Cantabrigian man. In this is perhaps an uncon- scious imitation, sympathetic copy ing, of an admirable norm, but it is graceless in petticoats. As she steps, she knocks her skirt with her knees, and gives you. the impression that her leg is crooked, that she does not lock her knee joint. More often she toes in than out.
 She has marvelously delicate, brilliant, fne-grained skin. It is in nocent of powder and purely natural. No beer in past generations has en- tered it's making, and no port; also, little flesh.

GROWTH OF COLONIES
European Countries Deeply Inter- ested in Their Development.
Chief of United states Treasury Blu reau of Statistics Finds Great Progress Being Made Along
 Commercial Lines.


 The chief of the treasury bureau of statistics has just returned from brief visit to London, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam and Brussels, where he went for the purpose of making some statistical studies regarding the com merce of European countries and es- pecially their commerce with and their development of their colonies.
 ''I was greatly impressed" said MT. Austin, .'with the interest evinced lnt colonial questions at all the capitals which I visited. Each of these five countries has it's colonial department or division, with athoroughly equipped force largely made up of men who have had long experience in the colo nies of the country. In England, the colonial office at the home government interchanges, at intervals, it's em- ployes, as far as practicable, with the colony, thus obtaining practical and experienced men in the home office, and keeping corps of men in training in the colonies. At the Netherlands, whose colonial work is matter of pride on the part of every citizen of that country, the head of the colonial department has had long experience in Java, the principal Netherland col ony, and one which has been eminent ly successful. In France, the colonial department is extremely active, ob- taining large numbers of reports from it's colonial officers and distrib- uting information by a specially or ganized bureau for that purpose, and in Germany and Belgium equal inter est was manifested.
 Everywhere I found great public interest in colonial matters outside of official circles. In London, for in stance there is colonial institute, composed of several hundred eX-of- officials of the colonies and others in terested in colonial matters. At Paris there is a colonial organizat ton with about 5000 members, and in Germany, although their colonial sys- tenn is young as compared with those of England, Netherlands or France, the Colonial association numbers over 10000 members.
 ''In nearly all of the countries in question there are excellent and in- teresting colonial museums, devoted to the exhibition of not only the products of the colonies, but also the articles required by their population.
 Especial attention is given in all cases to the ability of the colony to | meet the commercial wants of the mother country. Countries which do not produce within their own borders the foodstuffs and raw materials re- l qIired by their population, encourage the production in the colonies of the articles thus required at home, while the countries which produce their own foodstuffs or raw materials look to the colonies for the tropical prod ! ucts which they cannot produce at home and encourage the, production of those articles in the colonies and their distribution in the mother country. The investment of home capital in the colonies is thus encour- | aged. ;"

 t.As James was waiting at the judges office for him, of course l had departed before he came back, and so he did not get either his quar- ter or his newspapers, for l did not give him a thought in my chagrin and haste to get away.
 ''WeII, met the pretty young lady several times afterward at receptions, and those at the judges house, too, mind you. And although the judge had not known her at the time of the ridiculous mis take, he immediate ly recalled the incident and came very near making the facts known to her. I managed to draw him aside in time to enforce a compact not to breathe a word about the matter.

A Winnfnr Hand

Even the most serious occasions may have humorous incidents that can be Appreciated after the period of anxiety has passed. During the severe illness of Mrs. Mckinley in this city, a squad of policemen were stationed on all the streets leading to the house where she was staying, to prevent the ap- proach of persons having no business there. 7 A dignified gentleman residing on one of the quarantined blocks, when on his way home to dinner, approached one of these guardians of the peace whose Milesian extraction was un- occasionally stamped upon his face The policeman stopped him and asked where he was going. sHome, replied the gentleman; q live at 2222 Blank street" -Four deuces, is it. said the policeman, with twinkle in his eye; that's a good hand lay mine down. You can go."-San Francisco Chron- icle.

,st os the Fighters.

The last English king who fought on q battlefield was George IT. At the bat tie of Dettingen, in Bavaria, 15S years ago. between the British, Hanoverian and Hessaan troops (52,000 men) under George IT, and the French (60,ooo men) under Marshal Noailles, which resulted in a victory for the allies, his Britain nic majesty continued the whole time in all the heat of the action. The con- fiict is said to have been fierce. George appeared in the same red coat he had worn at Oudenarde B years before. At one time he was nearly taken by the enemy, but was rescued by the Twenty second regiment, the members of which, in remembrance of that day, wore sprig of oak in their caps upon the anniversary of the battle for many years afterward.-N. Y. Press.
