CABINET CHANGES

dor. While the Latter VIII Taze
Mr. Hays Place ut the Head
of the Cabinet.

Runners that Secretary Hay win shortly
retire from the Cabinet are persistent.
The change will be effected, 1t is said,
by an exchange of places between Mr.
Hay and SIR. Choate, Ambassador to Eng
land.
Mr. Choate's leave of absence expires
about the middle of next month, but It
is thought that even if Mr.. Choate does
return to the Court of st. James at that
time he will remain there but q short
while and will then return to this country
and enter the Cabinet
Mr. Hays Desires.
Secretary Hay has long desired to leave
the Cabinet, but has not wished to retire
entirely from public life. In many re-
spects Secretary Hay regards the Am
bassadorship to England as the most
pleasant public post he ever occupied He
has many friends in England and is as
sured of a most cordial reception should
he return to St James
His part in drawing the present canal
treaty has brought him to be regarded
most highly at the British capital. His
time as Ambassador there was, on the
score of increasing amity between Eng
land and the United States, the most not
able in history.
Mr. Cheate's Qualifications.
Mr.. choate is, on the other hand. per
fectIy willing to leave St James for the
more active life at the head of the Cabi-
net. He is in every manner thoroughly
onuirrad for the Dosition. His experience
as Ambassador has broadened an already
large grasp Of public affairs

Eyes will be greatly strengthened by
putting the face down into glass or
eyecup of water the first thing in the
morning and opening them under wa
ter. This Is somewhat difficult to do
at first, but If the water for two or
three days be tepid and gradually made
colder by impereeptible degrees until
it Is no shock to put the face into quite
cold water it will soon become quite
easy and is very invigoratlng and re-
freshing.
If done regularly every day, this
treatment alone will preserve the sight
into quite old age. There is right
and wrong way Of wi,ing the eyes
after this, too. and the right way is to
pass the soft towel very gently from
the outer angle inward toward the
nose.
If after a long day the eyes feel so
hot and tired that they seem dim when
one tries to read or to do little neces-
sary sewing for oneself. they should be
bathed with cold tea from which the
leaves have been removed.

Fire Among Savage Nations.

According to Pliny fire was a long
time unknown to some of the ancient
Egyptian tribes. and when n celebrated
astronomer made them acquainted with
that element and how to produce it
they were wild with delight. The Per-
slams, Phnnicians, Greeks and several
other nations acknowledge that their
ancestors were once without the COM
forts which fire bestows; the Chinese
confess the same of their progenitors.
Pompanion, Mola, Plutarch and other
ancient writers speak of nations which,
at the time when they wrote. knew not
the use of fire or had just recently
learned 1t.
The inhabitants of the Marian
islands, which were discovered in 1851,
had no idea of fire or its uses. Their
establishment knew no bounds when
they saw it applied to wood, most Of
them taking it to be some kind of an
animal which the sailors had brought
with them and which must be fed on
wood.

WHAT He MEANT.

ny the Young VA N Called Copy I'm the
Lnnchroom
a tall young man in down town
lunch room Yesterday called Copy
IN vociferous voice and then he tried
to look as If he hadn't spoken. just
exactly what ''copy meant the
waiter didn't know, but he fastened
TO him and TOOK his order for lemon
pie, with carefully composed
countenance. Only some other young
men on the left side of the room
seemed to find anything amusing in
the situation, and they laughed inn
mode rately.
For the benefit of the uninItiated,
at NAV be stated that the small boys
in a newspaper office who are employ
ed to carry copy - that is, manu-
script--from the reporters to the city
editors desk, and TO preform other
duties of "a similar nature which they
leave undone as much as possible, are
called copy" BOYS.
Even the reporter with voice like
IA megaphone has to call Cor py'
that's what it sounds like-three
times before small and extremely
preoceupied urchin loIters up to him.
Thus it is that half of the repor torial
life is spent III shouting this cabalistic
word, and as it gets to be second
nature. and eventually the newspaper
man finds himself calling the walters
in hotels, and the maid in his own
dining room, and the newsboy on the
corner, whose attention he wishes to
attract, and the car conductor, and
his setter dog, and occasionally his
wife Though she ought to have come
before the setter dog) Copy.
just how silly he feels after he has
done this, words cannot express.
Like the newspaper man in the lunch
room. he turns it into lemon pie--or
something equally foreign, when he
can-and then goes on his way anath-
ematizing himself for an idiot. -News

Greek and Roman stoves.

Warm as Greece and Rome and
Egypt are. stoves were made there in
the dim and misty vistas of the past.
1t was not just the pattern used at
present, but was metal basin in
which charcoal was burned. 1t sat in
the middle of the room, and as the re-
sulting smoke was of the slightest no
opening in the roof or elsewhere was
necessary. The same implement, still
called by its old Greek name Of bra
zier, is now employed in many portions
of continental Europe, where 1t is util-
lied for heating as well as cooking.
But the progressive Romans i'm
proved on that and made hypocaust.
1t was the germ of the present fur
mace. 1t was made under the house in
a little cellar prepared for it, and the
heat was conducted to the rooms and
baths through crevices left in the floor
and lower portions of the wall. Later
hues We're provided, conducting heat
to any portion of the house. In some
of the old Roman villas in England the
remains of these old time furnaces are
still found.

An American capitalist who has
made a fortune running far into the.
millions likes to tell a story of his first
business venture and how he saddened
the local grocer. At this time he was
fond of frequenting public salesroom
near his home where all sorts of bar
gains were offered:
One day | noticed several boxes of
soap of a certain brand which | had
often been sent to buy at the corner
grocery. l thought to myself 'That
will go cheap" so / ran to the grocery
and received a promise from the man
in charge to buy as much of the soap
at certain figure as l could furnish.
OF course he never suspected that |
could furnish any of it.
/ returned to the salesroom, and
when the soap was put up I bid it in,
and it was knocked down to me. My
name was demanded, and when l gave
1t in a shrill voice everybody laughed,
for l was then only eleven years of
age.
Amused as they were at the sale, the
bystanders were amazed when l bid In
the whole lot of twenty-five boxes. l
had them carried over to the grocery
and received the price agreed upon.
The grocer wore weary look when he
heard how l had obtained the soap.

In accordance with the proclama
ton of tire President of the United
States, Thursday, November 28, has
been designated as day Of National
Thanksgiving and prayer. Therefore,
request that unon that day the citi-
zens OF our Commonwealth meet in
their respective places of worship and
there give thanks unto Almighty
God for the great blessings which he
has bestowed upon us al Nation
during the past year.
We are truly a favored people
among the nations of the world and
the citizens of no State in our Union
have more abundant reason for
thanksgiving than those of West Vir-
GINA. Our material prosperity has
been verv great and we have been
shielded from pestilence and distress
Our State has probably been blessed
above all others In the progress of
material development and IN the in
creased production of the great riches
with which God has favored us.
A thankful heart is a greatful and
generous one. Let us not be unmind-
full, therefore, of those around us who
may DE less fortunate, and may gen.
erous giving characterize our thank
fitness.
Given under my hand and the Great
Seal of the State, at the CAPITAL, on
