THE FEMININE MIND.
Some Men Think They Fathom
hut They Are Mistaken

Some Men Think They FathOm II,
but They Are Mistaken.
A man can very seldom tell what IL
passing In a woman's mind. He talks
with another man, and he can follow
his processes; he gets his point Of
view; he can read between the lines;
he can make a shrewd guess as to
how he came to say that or why he
refrained from saying the other, says
the Waterman.
But woman's mental processes are
not those of a man. Her mental ma
chinery is geared differently. You hear
what she tells you. You can make In
ferences from it. They will be wrong
because you do not know how she
came to say what she did; you do not
have the clew. Try to guess what she
will say next, and you will find that
you are all at sea.
The man who says that he under
stands woman Is himself woman.
No man can understand a woman. He
may love her. There may exist be-
tween his soul and hers that indie
Enable and celestial sympathy which
Is the sweetest thing on earth, but he
does not understand her.
Her mental operation, her ways Of
thought, her point of view. will always
be as inscrutable to him as the mental
processes of an angel. Whether wom-
en- understand each other is not quite
certain. A greater part Of the delight
that men find In the companionship of
women arises from their inscrutability

sHREwo VICTOR HUGO.
The Quiet Way In which He BulIies
the Theatrical Managers

The Quiet Way In Which He BulIied
the Theatrical Managers.
Here are the methods which Dumas
the elder and Victor Hugo employed
when they had a new play to offer to
the theater. Dumas would write to the
director of the Porte ST. Martin:
My Dear Friend-I shall bring you on
Monday play in five acts. I shall need
Mile Georges, Nine. Dorval, Bocage.
Lockroy, Provost and five new scenes.
This extravaganza would alarm the
director, who would put off the,produc-
ton of the play till better days.
Then Victor Hugo would appear and
shyly draw a manuscript out Of his
pocket. He would agree to everything.
The stock company would play his
piece admirably, since all he wanted
was a good ensemble; no new decora-
tons would be needed nor any change
at all.
So the piece would be read, and as
the roles were distributed Hugo would
say musingly, "Dieu, how fine Freder-
lex would be in that part" THAT is
true" Horel would murmur, and a few
days after he would announce that
Frederick was engaged. Hugo would
then demonstrate that this destroyed
the equipose of the cast and Raucourt,
Laferriere and Mile. Georges would be
engaged. Then Hugo would attack the
stage setting. Old scenes, that the pub
lie had tired of, were almost an insult
to these great artists. If Horel showed
reluctance at this, Hugo would threat
en- to withdraw his piece. And so the
game would go on, till, little by little,
Hugo had obtained everything he
wanted, even to changing the paper
hangings In the stage boxes.

Jack Thurston gazed curiously across
the little table at the young woman
that Carl, the presiding genius of the
Skye Terrier, with muttered apology,
had seated opposite him. Time was
when the Skye Terrier could afford a
table to every guest. Now it was diff
cult to get even a seat.
1t was the first time that Thurston
had ever seen really pretty woman at
the Terrier. 1t was a novelty. His
soup grew cold as he watched and ad-
mired. She was clearly timid, but bore
herself so well that even with the IL
cense afforded by the supposed boz
hemian tendencies of the place she was
well on toward the quarter section of
ice cream and he had lit his third
cigarette before he spoke.
She regarded him with absolute ter
ror for moment when he made some
trivial remark, Tipping the ashes from
his cigarette as he did so to cover his
own confusion, but Thurston had a
face to inspire confidence, and falling
into the spirit of the thing commu-
nifty of interest soon ripened the ac-
quaintance.
Both had come from small country
newspapers to engage in Journals

There are many useful purposes to
which rosin can be applied outside of
those of general practice. AS a non
conductor of heat it is used in the pro-
lection of water pipes, particularly in
crossing bridges, where the pipe is laid
In the middle of long box and the
whole filed with melted rosin. Rosin
is also used in supporting basement
floors in machine shops, which may be
laid over some dry material, as spent
molding sand, which is carefully lev
eled off, and the planking laid upon
temporary supports separating it about
two inches above the sand.
Numerous holes about two inches in
diameter being bored through these
planks, melted rosin is forced through
them by means of tunnels until the
whole space is solidly filed, and then
the upper flooring Is laid upon these
planks. In case the floor Is subjected
to shocks sufficient to break the rosin
it rapidly joins together again in much
the same manner as the regulation of
loo
