H what good time that man who scoffs at woman's inconsis- M W tencies would have had had he
 been with Santa Claus and me
 on a recent shopping expedition!
 Never before was l so inn pressed with the fact that woman is at best a contradiction" Poor, harmless little woman who furnishes 50 much amusement for man, l wonder if he real izes what truly generous and heroic i'm pulses the most inconsistent and the most unimportant little woman possesses. Some of her Christmas sacrifices are real ly noble; and what if she does give the clerks nervous prostration and her hus- band bad cigars, the principle is right and even the certain knowledge that rid tculs will follow, doesn't stop her, for isn't she doing her duty-and enjoying herself2
 One woman explained the eccentricities of her sex's Christmas shopping in this way:
 You see. at Christmas one shops with her friends taste in view. but with her own pocketbook, and 1t takes more time and wory and makes her do thing which at any other time would seem silly and foolish"
 I think I murmured something about Monday morning bargains and passed on. Oh lady dear, why do you give Christ mas presents? Do you love your neigh bor, or are you afraid she will give you one?
 To my certain knowledge one woman has nice new pocketbook tied up with red ribbon, a sprig of holly and a Christ mas card ready to send Mrs. Blank in case that lady should make her a pres ent. Now if her name is not on Mrs. Blanks Christmas list, why my friend will have an extra purse for the New Year, and Christmas night, after every one has retired, she will take 1t out and wonder as the fire consumes the card, all about Towing greetings" and good will" if Mrs Blank suspects what she has missed.
 Doubtless Mrs. Blank is at home now with a similar card and a similar gift she was awaiting to send on the arrival of the pocketoook,

American Hammers.

American Importer.
 Of the hammers made in America today there Is no end. There is the tiny litua tack hammer, which weighs only a few ounces. and is indispensable in house store or factory. Then there is the twen. ty and thirty ton hammer, driven by steam, and used for making immense forgings. The numberless effects which are due to its remarkable force of i'm. pact have made the hammer a necessity in all trades. Immense manufacturisa eploying thousands of men, are grinding year in and year out making hammers, while ten times as many wholesale houses are busy putting the product on the market. The industry has advanced to such stage that many general hard ware firms in the United States havs thrown out the hammer, leaving 1t to houses that deal in tools exclusively. In the South Sea Islands tree-felling contests are of such importance that specially made axes are imported for the work from America So skilled are these wood- men of the South Seas in felling timber that a dozen blows on the trunk of a tree will show but one gash, as though done by a single blow of mighty power
 Some mems uttleness is by far the big gest part of them.

popular with the men of the
 Seventy Ninth over there in
 the Philippines. He was A% moross and taciturn. The
 hght-hearted young officers ahunned him as they would have shuuned . isper.
 The reserved, cold-natursd young officer had been assigned to the Seventy Ninth about six months, and he was not on good terms with but one offlcer-Lieuten- ant Homer Carlisle. They were anti theses in character and disposition. for Carlisle was called ''the happy man" of the regiment. Other officers marvelled that these two young men so widely apart in tastes should so soon become fast friends. After some discussion among the soldiers, 1t was agreed that Carlisle and Benton met on congenial ground be- cause both of them were from the South''-meaning the southern part of the United States. Benton was from Ken lucky, Carlisles home was In Arkansas. It might have been that they were at first drawn together by the knowledge that they were the only officers in the Seventy Ninth who were from the Southland that their respective fathers had been officers in the army of the Con- federate States. The fact was that each found in the other much to admire.
 Carlisle knew little of the family his- tory of Benton. He had volunteered no personal information further than that he was reared in Kentucky; that his father, Capt. Asa Benton, was living. and that he himself had been a newspaper man before entering the army.
 The two officers messed together. Ben ton was singalarly silent when Carlisle touched upon subjects concerning their native country and whenever Carlisle spoke of his 'bast girl'' back there in the United States, Benton showed a pos itive aversion to the subject
 When Company of the Seventy Ninth, to which Benton was assigned, was or- dered to Rosario province. about forty miles distant, to remain Indefinitely, great regret was expressed by Carlisle
 'ItH be lonesome without you, Ben ton," he said God knows it's tough over here at the bsst.''
 Company B went to Rosario the last week in November Two weeks went by and, except through official channels, Carlisle heard nothing of Benton.
 Then a letter came It was a thick letter in long official envelope and marked personal and confidential" |" Carlisle was in his own quarters when

OLDEST REPORTER

The Veteran Henry Hayes is Miss
 ing from His Accustomed Place. Washington Post.
 A face familiar in the press galleries and about the Capitol for nearly third of a century is missing at this session of Congress. Mir. Henry G. Hayes, the oldest reporter in Washington, has been compelled by i'll health. due primarily to advancing years. to lay aside his pen. and he probably never again will be able to resume it. For many years he has reported the proceedings of the Senate, formerly for the New York Associated Press, then for the United Press. but of late for The New York Sun. He was re- cognized generally as one of the ablest legislative reporters of his time.
 No newspaper man ever had 6 more complete grasp of the situation in the Senate than MT. Hayes, His understand ing of the rules of the body, his acquaint- ance with and his perception of the linn itations of Senators, his knowledge of Congressional legisdlation, obtained by making a life study of it. and his long experience a reporter, who not only chronicled the actions of legislators, but also sought the motives which inspired the action. all combined to render his judgment upon anything respecting the senate pTdCLlCaliy HIdIliDle' HE AAtul- tion was so highly developed that it amounted to a sixth sense. He seemed to know by instinct when a debate or colloquy would lead up to an important legislative situation or to g sensational climax. Quite frequently he would take stenographic notes of some part of the proceedings that appeared to be of no importance at the moment, but which a little later would develop into the supreme news story of the day.
 MT. Hayes is a fine stenographer, and, above all knows how to make a news report from his shorthand notes-a sort of ability possessed by few stenosraphers. He always uses a pen, both in taking and transcribing his notes, as he never learned to operate a typewriter. While he works slowly, he really accomplishes a prodlgous amount of work. Once while reporting the proceedings of a State political convention in New York he furnished to his newspaper in one day eleven columns of matter-about 1600o words-all written in long hand.
 While MT. Hayes has few close friends among either newspaper men or Con- gressmen. his ability and forceful char acter won for him the admiration and re- spect of all who know him.

The judge-elect in the consular court
at Cairo, Egypt, after the appointment
has been ratified by the Khedlye, will
receive an annual salary Of $1,000, and
as the appointment is for life, Mr., Van
Horne will have some solace in tearing
himself away from his friends in this
state TO make a new circle Of friends
and acquaintance under the star and
crescent that wave over the pyramids,
camels, Arabs, Cooks tourists, dancing
girls and other attractions, associated
with torrid Egypt
The new judge at present has no idea
when he will be called upon to fold up
his tent in the Central block and steal
away to Arabland to assume his new
duties. We AYERS that the appointment
came as big surprise to him and con-
sequently he is not as yet fully posted
as to his duties, He understands, how
ever, that the Judge formerly located
at Cairo has resigned and Senator
Kearns promptly used his influence to
get one Of his friends appointed with
the result that he was the lucky man.
At present he says that all he knows
is that each of the maritime powers
has Judge in the consular court at
Cairo, and the court passes upon all
questions in which the rights OF cltl-
zens Of the different nations are in
volved. This court, he says. was inst-
tuted for the purpose of allowing the

of having TO face Eastern justice as
supposed to be handed out in the
