THAT WHICH is QUOTED.
OF All Languages Latin Has LeeH the

Quotation Is a matter of memory,
and when litera ture relied on memory
literature mainly consisted of verse.
1t seems pretty clear that fixed
rhythm was at least as much a prac-
teal eNpedient as an artistic device.
And the poets most quOtable and most
quoted are those whose words have
the most direct bearing on the common
business of life. says a writer in the
Saturday Review. The old theory Of
the poets function was very different

which the crowd shows no desire to

WOMEN LIGHTHOUSE KEEPERS
An Occupation for which the Center
Sex Is Eminently
Adapted.

Keeping a lighthouse is essentially
womanly work. a well regulated
woman takes pride in bright, we'll
kept ,hings and orderly surroundings.
Her heart leaps up when she beholds
the perfection of Heavens first law,
says Mary Nimmo Balentinc, in Wom-
am Home Companion.
The orderly woman can have a pro-
gramme of work for the week just
like any other housekeeper, although
keeping a lighthouse is not light
housekeeping, by any manner of
means. In some lighthouses days are
set aside for sewing, for Furnishing
the lamps, for reading and writing,
some Of the Keepers having an extern
siye correspondence; and, if you
please, there are reception days, for
q rule of the board enions the keep
ers TO show the light and the Stntion
to sightseers, Lighthouse life cannot
be dull TO lover of such responsive
friends as books and music. And so
the identity of the tall, grim light
tower is lost in the home under the
wooing influence of the social and
domestic atmosphere of the woman
be hind the lamp.

SOCIAL ENGINEERING
How Extensive French Mining
Company Looks After Its EN-
piOyes' Welfare.

In Casters Magazine appears an
entertaining article on the indus
trial betterment of workingmen by
Or. w. II. Tolman, Speaking of the
policy OF the French Mining company
at Amin, which was n pioneer in this
movement, the writer says:
ITO help its employees save money
the company established. in 1869, a
department for deposits, in which the
worllmen could make deposits up TO
1000 francs, on which the interest al
lowed was AT 3 per cent. The COM
pany no longer encouraged these de-
posts in its own department after
banks, since these give the workers
every facility and every guarantee
for banking their savings.
"a cooperative society was found
ed in 1865 on the initiative of the
company In addition TO food stuffs
Of all kinds, which are bought in
bulk, this society bad it's own bak-
cries, dairies, butcher shops and wine
cellars. All sorts of household uten-
sis, clothing, and, in fact, all articles
for which demand exists, are sup
piled. The company itself buys from
the cooperative stores soaps, brushes,
pals and other small supplies for
factory and Office use. The society
has its own chemists, who analyze
all the food stufTs and test the mer-
chandise, so that the members are
protected in having the purest sup
plies and standard products at the
lowest market rates.
To-day the stores are absolutely
independent, with 10 branch estab-
lishments and force of nearly 100
OF their own employees. The present
number of cooperators is 5,642. The
sales in 1899 reached 3.934.6ll francs,
with a net profit Of 7i4,47l francs 10

STEAMBOAT liz TIE WOODS.
Cut Through the Timber Dur
ing june Rise.

"Did you ever notice." asked an
observing man. according to the Chi
cago Tribune, that when an unusual
event occurs anywhere there is al
ways somebody who is reminded Of
an event which overshadows the news
of the day? | met a Kansas man to-
day, who, after he had talked about
the great calamity in Texas, told me
that it was nearly as bad as one of
the June rises of the Missouri river
Then he went on to tell me some
of the experiences which Kansas and
Missouri farmers had in consequence
of great oyerflows that often changed
the boundary lines of counties, and
two states. In one case Kansas
town by reason of the shift of the
channel of the river found itself in
Missouri. But his capsheaf story was
that of an old steamboatma who,
during one of the rises of which he
spoke, cut across a field i'm Kansas
with his boat, hoping thereby to
make time. The water was high and
swift in the forests, and the steam

tie up to one Of the big trees during
the night and resume his voyage ON
the following morning. But 10!
when the morning came the waters
had abated considerably, so that the
steamer was stuck in the mud. The
waters continued to abate, and by
the second night there wasn't enough
to drink. The river gradually re-
sumed its old channel, according to
the Kansas man, and the boat was
finally left there, right in the woods.
The boat was dismantled of most of
its furnishings, but there were the
outlines of a boat just the same. \
farmer lived in the craft one winter,
and in the following spring the boat
became the abode of crows and other
things. The moss gathered about
the bull, the Smokestacks rusted
away, and at last there was crash
in the stiffness of the forest, and the
only dry land steamboat i'm Kansas,
or anywhere, fell to pieces

DEADBEATS IN ALL CHIMES.
Wall Signs Prepared for Their Es-
pecial benefit All the
World Over

Two New Workers, sitting at a
round table in a combination barroom
and restaurant, eating hot roast beef
sandwiches and drinking beer had
their attention called to a sign over
the bar which read: "In God we
trust; all others cash" THAT sign
smacks too much of sacrilege," sad
one. It's witty, perhaps, but
don't like it. A sign that one sees in
many English ale houses conveys the
same hint to those who desire credit,
and yet does not drag in the sacred
name. This sign ! speak of is often
accompanied by the picture of a
faithful watchdog lying dead on the
ground, and the legend reads:
"'Old Trust is dead; bad pay killed
him.
THE difference between the two
signs" replied his companion, 'it
seems to me, is the national differ
ence between British humor and Yam
kee wit. When / was in Europe last
vacation | often saw sign in the
wine shops there which | never saw
anywhere else until a few days ago |
spied it decorating the wall of lit
tie Italian drinking shop on the
lower East side. 1t reads:
"'To-morrow we give credit, but
not to-day"
"The dead beat seems to be the es-
pecial product of no particular ma
ton" said the first speaker. by the
way, Bill can you lend me a half?

ciple with me. Thank you Return
