occurred. These vacancies will be filled
by competitive examination to be
held in Washington, d. c., beginning

full candidates will be commissioned
officers in the U. S. Navy, with the
rank of Lieutenant, Junior Grade. The
salary for the first five years is S2700
per annum. There is also a bill pend
ing before Congress for increasing the
Corps of Civil Engineers of the Navy to
40, and its chances of passing during
the present season are considered
as favorable. This bill provides for
the appointment of three additional
Civil Engineers Immediately, and for
the appointment of three more in JAN
nary, 1908. 1t is expected that the
candidates who successfully pass the
examination on May 26th, 1902, will
be eligible for those additional appoint
ments in case Congress passes the bill
now under consideration. There will,
therefore, be two vacancies, with q
possibility of eight, to be filed by the
examination.
Candidates must be between q and 35
years OF age, must pass q satisfactory
physical examination, must be Ameri-
can citizens, must have received q
degree in the civil engineering course
of respectable engineering school,
must have had at least five years prac.
tical experience in civil engineering,
and at least three years in responsible
charge of work. Candidates must at
tain a general average of at least 75
per cent and an average of at least so
per cent in applied mathematics, con.
structional materials and engineering

tion can secure further information or
application to the Secretary of the
Navy, or by addressing Hon. William

A historian has it that as early as
four centuries before Christ metal mir
rors were in such common use among
the Romans that any maidservant
could have as many as she could hang
at her girdle, which probably accounts
for the fact that they gradually fell
into desuetude among ladies of the
higher classes and led to the tntroduc-
tton Of substitutes. 1t is hardly to be
supposed. however. that it was this
fact which induced some ingenious per-
son 80 to cut and burnish the inside Of
drinking cups as to reflect the face Of
the drinker many times in a highly
warning manner.
In addition to the small hand mir
rors which it used to be the particu-
lar duty Of some unfortunate young
slave to hold before her mistress, there
were panels Of stone set in the walls
and 30 highly polished as to serve as
mirrors. 1t was this use of dark
stone that first suggested the use Of
glass for rejecting purposes. which,
| according to Pliny. was first manufac-
tured at the glass works of a gentle
| man named Sidon. Black glass was
first used: afterward clear glass with
black foil on the back replaced it
Pliny tells US all about this. and from
this time on no mention Is made Of
glass mirrors until the thirteenth CEN
| tury. when a Franciscan monk. Jo-
| hannes Peckham. speaks of mirrors.
not only of polished marble and steel.
but also of glass covered with lead on
| the back.

the novelties now seen on dinner
gowns. 1t is made Of some sheer mate
rial and is soft and voluminous, its
saving grace being the peep of the
bare arm between the shoulder strap
and the top of the sleeve.
The dainty and charming ribbon en-
broidery Is growing daily in favor.
This is frequently intermingled with
chiffon and applied on a ground of
coarse net. reminding one Of fish net.
Pearl embroideries are very much In
favor and insertions Of cluny also.
Cluny lace is especially effective where
a transparent look is desired.
Woolen guipure Is among the TRIM
ming novelties. To be fashionable ii
must be dyed in soft grays, mushroom
and biscuit tints to accord with the
cloth 1t adorns.

why Men Walk In a Circle.

The fact that people lost In a desert
or in forest invariably walk in a cir
Gle is due to slight inequalities in the
length Of the legs. Careful measure
ments of series of skeletons have
shown that only 10 per cent had the
lower limbs equal in length. 35 per cent
had the right limb longer than the left,
while in 50 per cent the left leg was
the longer. The result of one limb be,
ing longer than the other will naturally
be that person will uncOnsciously
take a longer step with the longer limb
and consequently will tread to the
right or to the left. according as the
left or right leg is the longer, unless
the tendency to devtate is corrected by
the eye.

things to the now thoroughly frighteD-

cared nothing for the crafty Burnside.
And with Burnside it was Bess and
her money as bait for the manager.
Bert knew this somehow, though he
had never seen q line of the corre-
spondence between Burnside and the
manager. His little sweetheart's head
was turned, but her heart was loyal to
him
And, having thus settled the question
in his own mind, Bert was quick to
act. Trains to Morgan? Just one a
day, and the runaways had boarded
that. Livery rig? A fierce storm had
arisen, the first of the year. and the
phlegmatic proprietor of the Palace
stables refused to rent a team. Good
horsefesh was not to be risked In the
face of such a storm.
Bert was desperate. He rushed up
the street, and the keen wind from the
east struck him full in the face. With

here" came to the clerk in gasping
tones. The astonished man nodded.
Il want to see her right away"
He strobe up to the parlor. and when
Bess entered he stood shivering and
haggard in the dim light.
Bert she exclaimed, then stop

He seized her hands.

But 1t was not until they had been
hurriedly married by the nearest JUS
tice and hao taken apartments at q ho-
tel far removed from the stopping

THAT Bess opened her heart to her hus-
band.
