A womans tear has triumphed when
oratory, gold and every other known pow

Famous writer's the world over have
devoted much time and thought to the
powerful leverage possessed by tear
to mould or change the minds of men.
One of the latest of these is Professor
Camille Meiinaud, the eminent French
scholar, who has gone deeply into the
abon theories which many will feel
prompted to contradict.
Professor Melinaud says there are three
classes of tears-mechanical, voluntary
cases, they mean nothing at all. He de-
clares that women's tears in the ma
tority of cases are not sincere.
In the theatre, the audience cry, he

Grand Old Woman Of America" Mrs.
Leslie Carter, the emotional actress and
to Mr.. John r. Mcintyre, former assist

views on tears, their causes and effects,
presented in connection with Prof. Nell

uniqueness.
We cry for a great many different rea-
sons of a most surprising variety. If you
scoid a chilt 1t cries; you will cry at the
thought of a long or eternal separation
from a friend, but you will also cry for
Joy.
We cry in theatres, by looking at i'm
aginary sorrows: we cry from pity and
we cry in rage. We cry when deeply NOV
ed and we cry without feeling any emo
ton at all. But even If it is not possible
to point out similarities between all the
different reasons, they may be divided In
three or Iour different classes, and this
classification shows considerable light on
the subject
Now, it does not seem possible to me
to reduce these reasons to a unity. T.
DO not believe that there is one moral
cause, one sharply defined emotion, that
produces, in all cases, our tears.
I should divide our tears into three
classes-the purely mechanical tears, the
involuntary tears and the semi-volun-
tary tears.

The privilege of having some one
with whom we may exchange a few
rational words every day, as Emerson
phrases it, is the choicest gift in life.
We are rich in society and yet poor in
cOmpanionship. In the overflow of
chatter we are starved for conversa-
ton. Social life is so largely an affair
of representation, it inclines so largely
to the spectacular and to what it's
chroniclers designate as "socal func-
tions." that the element of conversa-
tional inter course is almost eliminated.
Yet, primarily, is not that the supreme
object of all friendly meeting? When
we reduce to first principles this COM
pick thing called living, do we not go
to our friend solely to talk with him?
Do we not invite him solely that we
may exchange ideas and compare
views on subjects of mutual interest?
Still, as things go, people meet all
through season in the midst of groups
and throngs-at dinners, receptions, en-
tertainments of all kinds-without ex-
changing one word in the way of true
intercourse.

up to be the captain of four master,
If they miss Il point or can only do it

Can you do it?
If a needle is drawn few times over
the ends of a horseshoe magnet, it be-
comes magnetized. Push such a mag
netiZed needle through small cork.
Place the cork in a bowl of water, TAX
ing pains to see that the cork when it
floats on the water will carry the nee
die in horizontal position or ION an
even keel" Another way is to cut
about three inches from hollow straw
(such as is used to suck lemonade) and
to push the needle inside the straw.
The straw will float and carry the nee
die. Now observe what happens. The
floating needle will slowly swing round
till it points north and south. The
straw will behave in the same way.
Push it in any other direction. and the
moment it is free it swings back again.
We do not know who first observed
the fact that floating magnetized nee
die will point to the north. Nor do we
know precisely when or where some
unknown inventor used this idea to
make a compass. All we know is that
the Chinese made and used compasses
more than 1900 years ago.
When men began, perhaps 10000
years ago, to sail upon the water they
used marks upon the shore to guide
them on their way. Long years after
they observed that a certain star kept
at all times the same place in the sky,
and they used this pole star as guide
in steering their ships. Today steam
ship starting down the Hudson river
for Europe is guided by the pilot. and
he uses the buoys, beacons and other
guide marks to steer the ship down the
bay. Off Sandy Hook he gives up the
ship to the captain, who instructs the
helmsman to steer northeast by east.

selects, and the helmsman. watching

Washington. April THE House to-day
made rapid progress with the sundry-civil
appropriation bill completing ninety three
Of the 13s pages of the bill. Efforts to
amend the bill were successfully resisted
es rule by Mr.. Cannon the chairman Of
the Appropriations Committee. who was
personally in charge of the measure. The
proceedings were without incident.
MI Sulzer IN " offered an amendment
to appropriate $4,000 for lighting the torch
of BarthoIdis statue of Liberty in New
York Harbor. Mr.. Sulzer said this light
was put out March l. Since the statue was
erected in 1856 until now he said the sundry-
civil bill had always carried an appropria-
ton for this light. He had read a poem
written by an anti-imperialist on the ex-
tinguishment of the light in Liberty's torch.
When Mr.. Sulzer concluded. Mr.. Cannon
congratulated him on the speech and poem
and then asked him IL he withdrew his
amendment
Mr.. Sulzer replied in the negative. where
upon Mr.. Cannon said that the pending bill
carried 81, 900 for lights. the expenditure
of which, he said. was entirely within the
discretion of the Lighthouse Board.
Mr. Cannon said the Appropriation Conn.,
mittee had made some investigation and
had ascertained that the light on Barthol-
dis statue was valueless for commercial
purposes.
On the rising vote the amendment was
carried. 43-S3. Some New York school
teachers in the gallery applauded vocifer-
ously.

ers. you will have to carry this by tell

Great interest was taken in the vote by
tellers. The pages scurried out to the res
taurant and committee-rooms to bring in

pletsd the first vote was reversed and the
amen6ment stood defeat ted. 81 to 81.
