The Women of Damascus.

Tile women of DamascuS-that is, the
MOSlcm WOmeli-afc more closely veil
ed than those of C0nStantinople and
other eastern cities because the people
here are more tenacious in the oDSery
ance of the ancient customs of their
race and the requirements of their re-
liGion. The wells are thicker, also, and
cover the entire face. Some of them
are figured so that the c0ncealment is
even more complete.
Greeks, Jews and Armenians do not
wear wells, and some of them are very
handsome, particularly the Jewish wo-
men. Their eyes, complexion and hair
are superb. The types Of oriental love-
illness remind you of Solomon's Song.
No women are employed about the
hotels or restaurants All the "domes-
tic" work is done by men. In the shops
and manufactures Of Damascus thou
sands of women and girls are employ
ed, but they are exclusively Greeks and
Jews. No MOSlcm would permit his
wife, daughter or sister to appear in a
shop or any other place where men are
employed. Chicago Record Herald

A Good Memory.

When Theodore Roosevelt was GOV
erHor Of New York, he was Il great
friend o. the porters and employees of
the New York Central. One morning
he took the 9:15 train from Albany
W. st, and as he entered the car he said
to Adams. the colorcd porter: Hello,
porter You here still"
"Nes, sir" replied the porter, 'and
I'm going to stay here till You get to be
president, and then | want you to give
me Il job
IN go YOU" promptly replied the
governor. and, sure enough, when Gov
ernor Roosevelt became president OF
the United States he surprised Adams
by sending for him to so to work in
Washington n.-Schoolmaster.

If You Have to Fight II Bon.

II any reader of this article should
ever be so unfortunate as to expert
encc the embrace of Il boa constructor,
it is recommended that he try to re-
lease himself hy taking hold of the
creatures tail and unWinding it from
that end. 1t can be easily unWound in
that way, but otherwise it is not possi-
bic. The way to kill Il snake is not to
attempt to crush its head, the bones of
which are very hard, but to strike the
tail, where the spinal cord is but thinly
covered by bone and suffers readily
from injury. 1t is the same with an
eel. Hit the tail two or three times
against any hard substance, and the
eel quickly dies.
The boas are not venomous, but their
fangs are sufficiently powerful to in
t1ict serious wounds.

One of Rhodes ItieaS.

a we'll known peer once asked Cecil
Rhodes to stand godfather to his son,
and he replied that he would on one
condition, which was that he might in
scst at once 800 in the boys name
and give 800 on each succeeding birth
day, provided that it should all go on
at compound interest until the boy Was
old enough to begin to spend the inter
est, and that then he might yearly de-
eide on what TO spend it, SO long IT'S it
was not on himself. This" said Mr..
Rhodes, will do two things-ttrst. it
will teach Your boy how TO spend mon
ey, and, secondly, it will make him un
selfish and kind to those in need. =

FOOT DANGLING BY SKIN,
GUTHRIE FLAGGED TRAIN.
Richmond Man, Injured on r., F. & P.
Displays Remarkable Forti-
tude and Goodness.

Patrick J. Guthrie, bookkeeper for the
Robert Portner Brewing Company, and
living at 1903 south Fifth street, was run
over by train No. rs, of the Richmond,
Fredericksburg and Potomac RAILROAD
about $50 o'clock Thursday night, near
Plymouth Rum, and had his foot and
ankle nearly mashed off.
With his foot mashed to a jelly and
hanging to his leg by the tendon behind
the heel and a few shreds of skin, he
climbed the signal tower nearby, got a
lantern, descended and tagged an ap-
preaching freight.
Upon seeing the light the train came
to a stop and the crew got out to investi-
gate and found the injured man. He was
picked up and taken to Whitewater, where
he found a doctor and had the limb dress
ed. Yesterday morning he was brought
to Richmond in the baggage coach of the
southbound passenger train.
He arrived here about $50 and was met
by the ambulance in charge of DR.. Fleg-
enheimer. When the men attempted to
remove him the pain was so intense the
doctor decided to dress the wound there.
An examination showed that the leg could
not possibly be saved, and it was ampu
tated in the car. After that he was NOV
ed to the Old Dominion Hospital, where
he is doing well.

time, died before She reached London.

to Mr.. Giffen saying that work. and no
thing but work, was possible for her now
The fateful climax to Miss La Vernes
romance is peculiarly touching She had
worked to support her mother and brother
Tor some years. Meanwhile her husband.
to whom she was devotedly attached, had
been following the avocation of a trader
in the southern seas. He spent much of
his time in Guatemala and while there
his system was racked by the feyers
that are indigenous in that section.
BY trading, her husband had accumu-
lated quite a comfortable fortune and it
was decided during the last summer sea-
son of the Giffen Company at the Acade-
my, that Miss La Verne should retire
from the stage and together with her
husband, should spend the rest Of their
lives in the full enjoyment of the gifts the
gods had sen them.
Miss La Verne was charmed with the
prospect 1t was the dream of her life
come true at last, and all last summer. as
her friends well know, the thought was
surE1ng through her brain always that
her days OF hard work were over. and
that the rich harvest of the after years
was to be spent in the full enjoyment ct
that connubial bliss for which she and
her husband had waited and hoped
Miss La Verne was Christian Scien-
list. 1t was reported in the papers that
she had remained in Richmond some time
after the season to take an advanced
course in the science, intending to turn
1t to account when she met her husband.

try" she said to the writer. shortly be-
fore she left Richmond. che laughs at me
and my belief but faith"-and there fol-
lowed an eloquent silence which was cas-

Then Miss La Verne set sail for Eng
land. but before she got rs far as Lon

joy had been ruthlessly dashed from
her lips.
