Inviting OdOrs.


Up in Columbus avenue is a bake
shop that is catering to a growing
trade because the proprietor accident
ally discovered how to attract hungry
patrons.
His bakeroom under the shop is ven
tilated by a grating in the sidewalk in
front of his one window, and during
the last cold snap he noticed that sew.
eral persons who stood on the grating
to look at his wares came into the shop
and ordered refreshments. Then he
investigated and found that most ap.
petizing odors assembled through the
grating. They were evidently the 81.
lent agents that had changed free spec
tators into paying patrons.
The trap was too good a one not to
be improved, so the shrewd baker
placed his cooking stove Immediately
under the grating, and now keeps a pot
Of boiling coffee on ii during all bust.
ness hours. 1t has the desired effect,
for the aroma is almost irresistible
when 1t reaches the nostrils Of q hun
CRY person who has as much as ten
cents In his pocket.-New York Herald.

An Encouraging Trade Outlook. /.

1t was in the morning hours Of 'bake
day" in the little out-of-the-way vii
lage. The mingled odors of fresh
bread, pies and cookies fioated out of
the open kitchen windows.
From one of the smaller cottages at
the end Of the street came barefooted
child in a colorless calico dress and
slat sunbonnet With the important
air Of a heavy buyer she entered the
village store and handed across the
counter a blue teacup. The proprietor
took the cup and said, in brisk tones:
"Well, Emmy, what does your ma
want to-day?"
Please, sir, ma wants an eggs worth
of molasses," and she carefully placed
a large, white egg on the counter.
From a stone jug little molasses
was poured, and the cup set before the
customer.
"Mr. Sniff" she said. as she took
her purchase, "I'll be back in little
while for some ginger. Ma said to tell
you the black hen was on"
And the buyer walked with dignity
out the store door and up the village
street to her home.-Harper's Maya

Chileans WIN Settle Where Defoe's Hero
Had Strange Adventures,


Had Strange Adventures.
The island On which Robinson Cru
soc was wrecked, and which now be-
longs to the Chilean Government, is
about to be turned into settlement
Almost every one knows that when
Defoe drew his story of Crusoe it
was the story Of Alexander SelIirk,
and It is remarkable how closely De-
foe kept to the facts Of Selllirks ex-
istence on the isle.
Even the story of Crusoe's man
Friday has foundation of truth in
the fact that Selkrk found and adopt
ed a stray Indian. This man had be-
come separated from a party Of In
dams who had landed on the island
and having lost himself in the woods,
was left behind by his people. The
death of Sellxirks solitary compan-
ion did not occur in such a dramatic
manner, however, as did that of CRU
soe's Friday, for Selkirk's retainer
was drowned while fishing for his
masters dinner.
Barren as the place seemed to Sell
kirk when he was marooned upon it,
it now contains many fourishing spots.
The fruit trees which he planted more
than two hundred years ago have re-
produced themselves, and peaches,
pears, ounces and grapes are to be
had in abundance A man who had
stock farm on the island for some
reason abandoned the undertaking
several years ago and turned his live
stock loose. The result is that cat
lie, sheep goats and pigs are now
found there in a wild state, so that
the new colonists are likely to have
some good sport if they have a turn
for hunting.
In addition to this, the sea swarms
with Goldfish, which should provide
pleasant occupation for the anglers.
The settlers, therefore, are likely to be
abundantly supplied with meat, fish
and fruit.
Up TO the present time, the island,
which is in the Pacific Ocean, has
been occupied by a few German and
Chilean families, numbering about fif-
teen persons in all. 1t is now pro-
posed by the Chilean Government to
turn the island into a regular colony,
and about one hundred and fifty
hardy Chileans will form the nue.
leus Of the new settlement, which it
is proposed to christen "Crusoe ISL

Women who have taken to house.
keeping seriously have lately adopted
q new method of showing how busi-
ness-like they are. The home office
Is the latest novelty in household ar
rangements, and the woman whose
house hapens to possess a room adapt
ed for that purpose regards herself as
fortunate. Otherwise she takes the
necessary steps to see that some part
of her house Is made suitable for that
purpose. The room need not be large
and 1t is chiefly important that 1t look
business-like and not too feminine.
Into this room goes her desk, which
must be exactly the kind used in
regular Office and accompanied with
appropriate office furniture. 1t is here
that she keeps her books, the accounts
of the household expenditures and
hither come the cook and other SER
wants to take their orders. Here let
ters pertaining to the business of run
ming the household are written, and
all that could by a liberal interpreta-
tion Of the word be accounted house
hold business is done. Rooms of this
kind have become more and more
popular during the past few years, and
their number has now increased un-
ell architects OF new houses arrange in
the plan for such an apartment, to be
used exclusively by what the pedlsrs
call "the lady OF the house" to look
after her daily affairs. OF course the
transaction OF social duties, such as
sending and receiving invitations, can
not rightfully be carried on in this
sacred apartment, as this is not bust
nesslike enough for the room conse-
Grated wholly to the commissary end
Of the household.-New York Sun.

American securitiea Abroad.

1t is the practice of the great banks
of Europe, particularly of Germany,
to take charge of the securities owned
by vast clientage of investors. When
in the Imperial Reichsbank and in the
Deutsche Bank in Berlin, was taken
into great vaults whose walls and
floors were covered with cases like
an immense library, containing stocks
and bonds belonging to clients of the
banks and held there for the collec-
tion Of coupons and safe-keeping. In
each of the banks there were securities
representing some 2,000000,000 marks.
1t was interesting to be shown great
shelves which had formerly been set
apart for American securities, and
which now held only here and there
scattered packages. This was the vlsi-
BILE evidence Of what an examination
Of investors strong boxes would show
in all those European countries which
have in years past found in America
the most profitable field for invest
nent.-Frank A. Vanderlip, in Scrib-

The County Council Of London has
employed some eminent meteorologists
to devise some relief from the fogs for
which that capital is noted. The idea
is not to prevent the fogs, for that
would be impossible, but TO devise
some means of forecasting them, even
a few hours, so that the gaslight and
the electric light companies may pc

tional light needed when the pail hangs

The scarcity Of water in many parts
Of Australia has necessitated the bor-
ing of numerous aTtesian wells. Ac-
cording to a recent Government report,
published at Melbourne, there were in
existence, at the end Of the year 1900:
New South Wales, 1876 artesian wells,
producing 21,0O0,O00 cubic feet Of
water per day; Queensland, GA wells,
producing every day 35,000,000 cubic
feet of water; South Australia, 121
wells, with a daily capacity Of 100000

Is the Age of chivalry Past ?

The age of chivalry is past. This is
evident in many ways. Time was
when a betrothed lover was even more
devoted to his courting than the one
whose fate still hung in the balance,
but the modern young man too often
thinks that once a girl has said "Yes''
he may relax all his attentions toward
her. Now, how should she prevent
this? Well, this is my plan, and l
think 1t a good one: She should keep,
all through her engagement, the inde.
finable air of uncertainty that will en-.
hance her charm a thousand times In
q mans eyes. She should not CO.
quette, or be perverse, or disgust him
by her coldness and variableness. But
every woman's instinct will show her
how to let a man feel that, though she
loves him, she does not give him her
whole love without reserve till he is
her husband. Man is so constituted
that difficulty of winning and uncer-
tainty Of success only make a thing
more valuable in his eyes. If woman
can make him feel that he must not
make so certain Of her that he can af-
ford to cease his lover.like attitude, it
will be the surest way to preserve it,
Woman's Life.

No definite function has heretofore
been ascribed to the milk of the rub
ber tree, from which rubber is pro-
duced. 1t has no nutritive value to the
tree, and it does not assist the growth
in any way that has been ascertained.
What, then, was natures object in pro-
viding the latreX, or milk, of tropical
trees? A rubber expert has recently
suggested that it is probably intended
to protect tropical trees from the raw
ages Of destructive insects. This seems
a plausible theory, as almost all trop-
ical trees have some such milk, which
is unpalatable to insect devourers.
Soft, rapidly growing trees have par
ticularly large quantities of it.

West Scranton Friends Make Pleas
ant His Fiftieth Anniversary.

w. j. Morgan, travelling circulation
agent of The Tribune, will always re-
call with pleasure the fiftleth anniver-
sary of his birth; and his former neigh
bors in West Scranton will be given
credit for making the occasion so pleas
antly memorable.
Last night, about twoscore of them
came up from Scranton on the Della
ware and Hudson train due here at
t3O. and going to the Morgan residence,
on Salem avenue, surprised Mrs. Nor
gan, took possession of the home and
with pleasant contemplation awaited
the coming of Mr.. Morgan. Mr.. Nor
gan arrived home from Scranton at 7.30,
and on approaching the residence was
surprised at the bright lights that illu-
minated every room. He was bewil-
dered when he walked into the crowded
parlor, but his surprise changed to u
happy mood as he recognized his for
mer neighbors. His equilibrium was re-
stored, and then he was fairly inun-
dated with congratulations and good
wishes. After making hearty acknowl-
edgments, he assumed. the role of host
and aided by his hospitable wife as
hostess. he provided many things for
the pleasure of his welcome guests.
After Il delicious luncheon, there was
an impromptu programme. Music, in
strumental and vocal, flowed from the
musical crowd, and there were a few
impromptu speeches, one by John r.
Thomas, of West Scranton, who was
capital entertainer; and another by j.
Wellington Grant.
The guests departed on the lilo Della
ware and Hudson train, after delight
ful evening having been passed by
every one. The guests were: Mr.. and
