MRS. LYDIA HART GREEN.

too great to produce the desired result
She was born in Quincy, ILL.,, and re-
ceived her education in the grammar
and high schools of that vicinity.
While still young her work attracted
the attention of q scientific illustrator
attached to the Illinois State univer-
sity at Urbana, Ill. Because of the
delicate touch" for which Mrs. Green
is now famous she was intrusted with
the duty of assisting the official illus
traitor of the state laboratory, which
finds a home in one of the university
buildings. When a little later this man
left Urbana, Mrs. Green, Miss Lydia
Moore Hart at that time, slipped into
his place. Although her work has i'm
proved remarkably since that period,
it was considered of sufficient and
unique interest to form part of one
of the state exhibits at the Worlds
fair.
The scientifically accurate portrayal
Of butteraies, moths and other insects
presents difficulties that are perpleX-
ing, since the necessity of securing eX-
act color renders living specimen of
concomitant necessity, and the living
creature knows few moments of actual
repose. But the delicate perceptions,
equally delicate touch, perfect sense of
color and unerring reproductive pow
ers Of the devoted worker enable her
to reproduce in water color painting
all of the beauty and wonderful mark
ings of the subject under considera-
ton and to do work with a brush and
wet color which looks as though 1t
were a Photographic reproduction Of
lines made by lead pencil with fine
point.
Some of her microscopical work is
almost incredibly fine and delicate,
every vsrying shade and color tone,
every tiny line and every infinitesimal
detail of an insect no larger than the
head of common pin being shown in
exquisite perfection. The velvety tex
ture and satiny sheen of a beetles
body or Il butterly's wing she repro
duces exactly. Her colors and texture
values are at once the admiration and
the despair of her fellows, and she her
self cannot always tell exactly how
they are attained. While possessing all
scientists depreciation of mere emo
tional feeling, she says that peculiar
feeling" of evidently intuitional ori-
gin, is her safest guide as to the man.

Remarkable DOlieS.

Human remains recently unearthed
at Girga, In Egypt, consist Of n contin-
uous series extending backward over
at least 5000 years. The bodies are
SO we'll preserved owing to the dryness
of the atmosphere in the region, and to
the perfection, that not only can the
hair, the nails, the ligaments, be made
out, but also the muscles and the
nerves. In almost every case the brain
also is preserved and the climax has
been reached in two cases where the
eyes, with the lens in good condition,
are present. There are now unearthed
n series of later prehistoric graves
ranging throughout the first fifteen dy-
nasties, others of the eighteenth and
yet others of the Ptolemaic and early
and recent Coptic periods.

"Alice of Old yincennes :"

Another enchantingly interesting
story is delighting readers of the Sun
day North American. "Alice of Old
Vincennes," by Maurice Thompson, is
both thrilling and pathetic, word
picture of the life of the early settlers In
Indiana, which portrays the lights and
shadows of pioneer days with the skill
Of the expert. Through this border life,
with its shooting atfrays and fierce fights,
Alice of Old Vincennes moves like being
from world OF her own. She is a
fascinating character to those who
compare her with the modern girl. And
yet her prototype could be readily found
in those strenuous pioneer days.
Alice RoussiIlon is described as tall,
1.-the girl at play beneath cherry tree
with her foster brother, Jean, the
hunchback. They are interrupted by
Pere Beret, the parish priest. Gaspard
Roussillon, the adopted father Of the
children, a stawart French immigrant,
had taken the two waits and had given
them home. The girl was of Protes-
tant parentage, but their guardian had
refused to interfere with her religion,
much to the regret of the good priest.
After chidng the children for their
rough play Pere Beret was told that a
quantity of alcoholic liquor has just
reached Vincennes. He made no sign Of
of approval or disapproval, but as he sat
on the doorsill of his home thinking of
it, letter was handed him.
The continuation of the story will be
found in the Sunday North Americ an.

Enrthenyvare Jars.

There is one thing about the Ameri-
can kitchen that might be remedied-
too many tin receptacles are used. An
Armenian kitchen is supplied with in
Vulnerable earthen Jars, some with
handles and some without. There are
Jars with broad, round bases and jars
built on the slender order, but they all
have covers and are kept sweet and
clean. 1t is almost impossible to avoid
musty odor in tin, but earthenware
can be made wholesome and dry, and
it does not cost such a lot of money
either.

The problems and difficulties con-

Feminine Courage,

Women are more courageous than
men, and for a very good reason
namely, that they have to suffer pain
so much more frequently. The major
ity of women suffer physically so much
more than the majority of men that
they learn to endure pain with com
parative fortitude. The mere fact that
men suffer SO little causes them to
dread the very idea Of pain and when
it comes to bear it badly.-Pall Mall

HATS AND SERMONS.
An English Minister'S Appeal to the
Ladies' of His Church.

An English Minister'S Appeal to the
Ladies' of His Church.
A popular preacher whose church is
at fashionable seaside resort recently
made a somewhat remarkable request
to the women of his congregation from
the pulpit, says the London Express.
He boldly asked them to make q prac-
tice of taking off their hats at sermon
time. "My church," he explained, sis
not built like theater. Now, If the la
dies, I'm all kindness and good manners,
remove their hats during the perform
ance of play at a theater, where the
seats are gradually raised one above
the other, l am sure my hearers can
have no reasonable objection to doing
the same here.
1T Is primarily q question of good
manners. 1t is very annoying to be
compelled to dodge between a lady's
big or little hat to see the preacher.
Besides, you know that many peoples
eyes seem to assist their ears-that is
to say, they think they can hear better
if they can see. People want to see the
minister when he is preaching, and to
have to dodge about interferes with the
proper understanding of the sermon,
while for the preacher to see lodging
congregation has distinct effect on
his delivery of a sermon.
81 also want the women to have their
hats off in order that they may be
quite at ease. Moreover, it is said that
nearly every woman looks best with
her hat off. To be sure, people like to
look their best, which is quite proper.
But it all comes back to the matter Of
the greatest good to the greatest num-
ber.
"I have been told that ladies can put
on their hats with much celerity and
satisfaction without looking glass, as
they instlnctlvely know when they are
on right. For my part shall rejoice
to view a hatless. congregation, and
am sure it will not hurt the flower gar
den to be out of view for half an hour
in the cause of Christianity"
