WIFE AND MAN.


 There are some queer couples in the world, remarked an estate agent re- gently. The other day man and Wo- man called 10 see me about renting a house. The woman did all the talking and turned to the man for confirmation or cofroboration. He always agreed with her, and did it very meekly.
 We'll said the woman. "Pll give you S25 for the house. Won't we, Johnw
 John-"Yes.''
 "And I'll pay my rent promptly, too; won't we, John?'
 sYes.'
 And I'll take good care of the house; won't we, John?'
 "Yes'
 And I'll take it for three years; won't we, John?''
 s'Yes.''
 But 1 inquired. as is usa1 in such cases. "are you man and wifeY'
 Man and wifew exclaimed the wo- man sharply; Indeed, we are not; are we. Johng'

 "What?" said I. s'Not man and wifn?'
 Not much,' she retorted. ssTd have you know, too, that i'll this family we are wife and man; that's so, isn't it, John?''

SPIRIT OF MODESTY.

A woman who is the proud mother of six children makes 1t q point to in- culcate in them the spirit of modesty. says the Philadelphia Record. In following out this idea she is very careful to keep the sleeping and dress ing apartments of the little boys and the little girls entirely separate, and there must be no trespassing. The other day, Maurice, aged seven. stray ed into the room where Dorothy. aged four, was being dressed by her nurse. Miss Dorothy was tremendously shocked. Maurice, go outl' she ex- claimed. .'Go out at once.,' Mau- rice -crinned and showed disposition to take his time. sMaurice!" scream ed the little maiden, "Go out sat once. Mother will be terribly angry.n As tie little boy turned to go she scontin- ued: And Maurice. if you are gentleman, you will forget what you have seen.''

Mayor Kilduff would never do for q publisher. His idea of suppressing the news of the smallpox epidemic in this city might be all right when applied to municipal board meet ings The people are clamering for the news whether it is smallpox, fire or flood, and the publisher that un- derstands his business will give it to them. Not altogether for the dollars and cents it brings into the till, but be- cause as d dispenser of news the read CTS of his paper demands and right fully, too, that he give all the news. The newspaper publishers deplore the small pox epidemic as much as any other individual ill the community, but to think that they can stop publishing news about the existence of the dis ease, or making it known when q new case breaks out, is simply absurd. We venture to say that greater precautions have been taken since the newspapers printed the news about the Diamond case two weeks ago yesterday. People have been vaccinated by the hundreds and have also taken the several reme- dies recommended for the preyentoin of the disease. The newspapers i1- stead of being criticized on condemned for their attitude during their trying time should be given the credit which belongs to them.

''The Panama lobby got it in the neck again. says correspondent, "when a subcommittee of the senate interoceanic canals committee reported against accepting the Panama Canal Cos offer to sell, because of the inter- national and other complications in volved in the title to what it offers to sell. The most notable feature of the present situation is Senator Hanna's open command of the forces that are working for the Panama route. How ever, Senator Morgan and other advo- cates of the Nicaragua route regard victory as certain, although the fight on the floor of the senate may be long and bitter"

MAKING ROMAN PEARLS.

The famous Roman pearls, which look so much like the originals that a good many people wear them, are made from the scales of fish called the argentina, which is found in great abundance in the Mediterranean sea. The scales are scraped off, mixed with entrails of the fish and then boiled down to the thickness of a paste, with a little glue added to give body and effectiveness. Real pearls are the crys- talized saliva of shellfish, of which this paste contains all the ingredients. The pearl makers take little particles of alabaster. very small if they want small pearls and larger if they want larger pearls, and put them on the ends of pieces of wire like hat pins, dipping them alternately into the gIut- inous substance and the pot of glue, and then sticking the pins into cush- ions and ollowing tle stuff to harden. The work is done by women and girls. who sit 1t tables covered with cnsh- ions stuck as full of pins as St Sebas- tian was of arrows. They begin in the morning at one end of the TOW and carefully dip all the alabaster balls in- to the fish paste. By the time they reach tue other end the first are dry, and are then dipped in oil; so they keep dipping until the accretions have reached the proper size, when they are laid away to harden and transferred from the pins to strings. If you place these artificial pearls beside real ones you can distinguish the difference, but if they are separated it is difficult to do so. Some ladies who have plenty of real pearls, and know that everybody knows it, lock them up in their tin boxes at the safety deposit vaults and wear Roman pearls instead, and of course are not suspected of the fraud. A story is told of lady who is famous for having fine pearls. She wore them to q ball one night and the string caught in the epaulet of an officer with whom she was dancing. As she turn ed away it broke, and the pearls were scattered over the floor. The dance was stopped; the hostess and her friends were terrified, but the lady herself was perfectly cool and begged that no notice would be taken of the accident because they were Roman pearls instead of real ones.

the. problem of protecting ships bot toms from the action of sea water will be solved, more effectually than it IS now, by depositing the protecting metal npon the iron by electricity. There are, as in other cases, difficult ties to be overcome in this matter apart from the practical difficulty in- volved in arranging the enormous de posting bath required for the purpose. Deposited metal is porous, unless ham, mered afterward; but this will be over come as so many other difficulties have been during the past twenty-five years"
