ORIGIN OF THE TENT.
Ta'mudic Legend Attributes ITS Ina
vention 10 the Ingenuity
of Adam.

AN ancient Talmudic legend relates
that Adam, on his expulsion from Par
adise, encountered a cutting north
wind against which his scant girdlc
of fig leaves proved poor protection, :"
says Hiram M Stanley in Outing "As
he wistfully cast his eyes over the
desolate plain of Shinar he perceived
at great distance dead thorn bush
running thither he crouched behind
ii, and while still shivering he saw a
wild ass como by. And Adam cried
20 the beast to lie down alongside and
keep him warm. But the ass spake
ont f''for asses sometimes spake in
those days, as SINCE" saith the COM
mentator), and derided him for not
having a warm coat of fur. Where
upon Adam waxed wroth, and slew the
ass with piece OF the thorn tree. and
with teeth and nails stripping off the
ass's coat wrapped 1t around himself
But toward noon. the sun growing
hot and a scorching wind arising,
Adam conceived the happy thought of
hanging the skin over the bush and
reposing in the shade thereof. It was
done. the tent was invented and civ
ilization began"

THE wIFE's MORAL RIGHTS
Withdrawing Incident Which Opens
Up Wide Field of Spec
ulatfOn.

Has the wife moral right to take part
in making her husbands will? This
was the question urged recently by a
wife, says American Queen.
With legal aspect of the matter,
she had nothing to do; legally, he was
not bound to consult her, and, on her
side, she knew that If she had possessed
money in her own right she could dis
pose of it as she desired So far, it
seemed fair to both; but in this case
the only money possessed by the couple
was that which had been saved during
their married life.
1t was true that the money had been
saved out of the husbands earnings,
and had been banked and invested in his
name, but the wife declared that the
extent of the saving had been consider
ably increased by her. She had al
ways striven to make home comfortable,
and to obtain the maximum of happi-
ness with minimum of expenditure.
BY her careful household management
she had secured her object on a small
er allowance than most of her friends;
she had taken her share in the per-
Torrance of everyday duties in the
house, and thus caused her husband less
expense for servants, breakage and gem
eral maintenance. Had she been so
minded, she might have spent much
more, and her husband would have ac-
cepted this increased expenditure as
matter of course. In that event his
savings would have been less; hence,
by logical reasoning, she had saved a
fair share of the amount standing to
his credit in the bank or In stocks, and.
as natural consequence, she had
moral right to have a voice in the dis
position of the estate.
In the instance of which we are
speaking, the husband recognized the
truth of the argument, and crossed out
the distasteful condition. This incl
dent opens up a wide field of specula-
tion. AS general thing, the wife has
good moral grounds for insisting on
taking part In the will-making. as she
Is the one who has to abide by the con-
sequences.

PROFITS OF PUGILISM.
Large Sums Realized by the Leading
Prize Fighters i'm Their
ENGAGEMENTS.

It's a profitable business-this prize

couple of hundred pounds and can boast
OF having knocked out" score or two
of men, says the Baltimore News. For
his part of the proceedings in the recent
fight, Jeffries has been able to add to
his baua account nearly $4,000, while
Corbett's roll has been increased a
shade less than 81, 900. OF course, the
training expenses amounted to some
thing, but when the men have attained
such notoriety as the two principals in
question have, 1t is generally the GUS
tom for enterprising roadhouses to fall
over themselves bidding for the honor
of entertaining them during the weeks
OF preparation. Nearly all of the fig
ures mentioned for each man will be
clear profit, and 1t is pretty tidy salary
for half an hours work, even though
that work consists OF being chopping
block for the other fellow. Besides, the
prominence with which each man is
again brought before the country on the
eve of another season on the stage is an
asset which must not be overlooked.
Such fights as that of few weeks ago

TISSUE LAMP SHADES.
Late Designs Rave the style and CoIos
Elects of SILK and Satin
Shades.

There is something entirely new for
the woman who has tact in her fingers
and what average woman has not?-
and delights in lamp and candle shades
reports the New York Times. They
are made of tissue and crepe paper, and
no one need SCOT, for they are not the
old-time flower effects, which are
pretty. to be sure, but not as generally
useful as might be- These newer shades
are made on the lines of the silk and
satin shades, have equally as good color
effects, and do not entail the expense
of those made of more elaborate ma
terials
The lamp shades are made on the reg
ular lamp shade frames to be found in
different styles and sizes. There are the
dome shades, the bell shades, and the
fiat-sided Empire shades. They are
all made similarly, the different styles
The wires in the frames, which can be
purchased with the supplies, are covered
with plain tissue paper twisted over
them, or with the colored, If desired
that any part that is visible may have a
finished appearance. There are many
fancy patterns in crepe paper, and these
are used at will. These include the
Powered papers showing flowers of diff
ferent colors and shades, blue and
white papers, which give Delft tones,
and Persian papers, which work up ex-
cellently into shades for libraries, or
possibly for dining-rooms. For candle
shades, as a rule, the more delicate coll
ors are used.
The tissue paper in white is first put
on the frame, and over this is stretched
the Powered crepe paper, and the top
and bottom and ribs of the shades are
outlined with narrow strips of black
or gold, hiding the places where the
paper is joined and giving the effect
of wrought iron or brass frames The
result is lamp shade that is inexpen-
sive and exceedingly pretty.
One of these shades, which is attrac-
tive, is made of crepe paper which
has a white foundation, with design
OF pale pink roses upon 1t. Another is
in the blue, both of these outlined with
the black paper, and brilliant dark red
shade is finished with the gold passe-
partout paper. Candle shades are sim
ilarly made and shaped over butter or
cheese dish top, and the candle shade
holders can be bought to mount them
on Pretty effects are obtained by US
ing a colored paper, instead of the
white as the foundation or lining of the
shade, and deep and varied color tones
can be obtained.

COFFEE AS A STIMULANT.
Medical Authority Declares 1t La an
Antfdote for Alcohol and 9th
erwise Beneficial.

One of the highest authorities among
medical publications, the London Lancet,
gives few words of advice and comfort
to the lovers of coffee and says that this
most popular Of all drinks is not harm
full.
AS an after-dinner drink 1t believes
coffee is distinctly beneficial Coffee also
Is an antidote for alcohol. The dyspep-
tic. 1t says, should not drink coffee or tea,
because both are injurious to weak stom-
achs
AS substitute for the hot drink, how
ever, coffee jelly is recommended. In
this form 1t can be taken into any stom-
ach without injury, provided there is no
stinting of the quantity of coffee in the
Jelly 1t has a cooling effect, assuages
the thirst and is generally beneficial
Coffee. the Lancet declares, is stimu-
liant. like alcohol, but. until alcohol. it
arouses muscular energy without the
collapse which follows alcoholic drinks
This is likely to prove grateful informa-
ton 10 the thousands of Americans who
think they cannot begin the day without
free indulgence in coffee and often con-
sumo that beverage with each OF the
three daily meals.

BRIDAL PHOTOGRAPHS.
Not Nearly SO Many Taken Nowadays
ms There Were Few
Years Ago.

Brides are probably just as beauti-
full now as ever they were, but they
are not nearly so anxious to record
their post-nuptial loneliness by means
of photographs. Most photographers
say they are glad of it, says the Chi
cago Tribune.
II never did enjoy taking the pic
lures of Brides" said photographer,
Like all the rest of the world / love
the dear creatures; but when it comes
down to four dollars dozen CONNER
cialism they do not satisfy my artistic
instincts. Few brides take good pic
ture. Somehow their togs are not be-
coming. A bride is supposed to look
superlatively lovely on her wedding
lay, but If anybody dared to tell the
truth on the subject that superstition
soon would be exploded, and the sweet
things weuld realize that instead of
looking their best on that occasion
most of them are apt to look their
worst. 1t is the same way when they
come to be photographed in their we'd
ding finery. They are either too pale
or too red, and they have a nervous,
anxious expression that robs the face
of all good lines for Photographic pur-
poses.
"The time was when no bride con-
sidered herself really married until
she had arrayed herself in spotless
white and had her picture taken. GEN
orally he came with her, and he
looked just about as foolish as she
did. Goodness, thes trouble have had
posing brides and grooms before the
camera. Instead of telling them to
look pleasant, always felt like say
ing: Don't look iGiotic if you can
possibly help it, and then l would have
to think up some device to keep her
from serooging down too close against
his shoulder and to keep Kim from re-
spending with an equally inappropri-
ate embrace. But with all my precnu-
lions ! never fully succeeded In pre-
venting their acting like lunatics. The
other day, when looking over lot of
old negatives, l came across several
hundred of those sentimental combina-
ions, and | thanked my lucky stars

pies have the camera craze"

UNITED STATES NAVY LEAGUE,
Recently Organised neay VIII strive
to Provide the Nation with
Adequate Navy.

There has recently been organized
in the United States Navy league,
whose object is to secure navy COM
snensurate with the country's requiie-
ments. TO this end 1t proposes to draw
public attention to our naval standing
relatively to the navies of the world,
and to create a public opinion on the
question of naval increase that will
react fayorably upon congress when
it comes to legislate on naval affairs.
Leagues of this kind already exist in
England, France, Germany and Italy.
and in every case they are non partisan
and possess no political significance
whatever. AS an instance of the work
done by similar organizations in other
countries, we may take the case of
Germany, where the impetus given
during the past few years to naval af-
fairs is attributed largely to the in
tluence of the naval league, in which
the German emperor himself is an in,
defatigable worker. The German
league has gone into the matter with
the thoroughness that characterizes
the German people in dealing with mat
ters of national Importance. The aims
of the new league are highly com
mendable, says the Scientific Ameri
can, and we trust that it will be sue
cessful in assisting forward the goot
work of providing this country will

Ample ~-.dence of the narrow margin
of safety In the powerful automobiles
is shown by the fact that in the Paris
Madrid race nearly all the big cars came
TO grief through failure of working
parts. The heat softened the metal in
the bearings, cylinder heads crooked
rods bent, giving evidence that the ma
chinery was under-proportioned and
overworked. 1t is more than probable
that this disastrous race will prove use
full in showing that the limits of safety.
