Miss Wilson Knew Her Business.

Before her marriage, Mrs. Mi
ctae1 Herbert, wife OF the British
ambassador at Washington (tilen
Miss Wilson,, was greatly impress
ed BY the ease and cleverness with
which English women in high So
ciety discussed politics il the draw
ing room. 1t was something quite
out of the educational curriculum
through which the Wilson girls had
passed in Paris, whittier their moth
er took them when they were girls.
About this time current question"
clubs were finding favor in this
country. Many clever women earn
ed livelihood coaching society wo-
men on the questions OF the day in
politics and international affairs.
To one OF these coaches de
scendant Of a race OF German pro
fessors-Miss Wilson went for in
struction in English home and colo
NAL political topics. I was mysti-
fed, said the coach, . when Miss
Wilson, refusing to join my class,
insisted upon private instruction up
on a specified subject. Scarcely
had we finished the course in Eng
lish politics-she was uncommonly
bright-when her engagement to
Michael Herbert was announced. 1t
was foresight characteristic of the
Wilson family. No emergency
ever finds them mapping. It is the
secret OF their phenomenal SUCCESS
in matrimony and society.

Fine Pair of Feet.

1t is authoritatively stated that
last week a pair of shoes were
shipped from Boston to Rockland,
Me, which are Of size y, FF, or,
70 put it otherwise, are fifteen
inches long and rather broader in
proportion. They were specially
made for a colored man who works
in a saw mill at TirrelI, Ark. He
went into Memphis to get a pair of
shoes and when the shoe dealers
saw the size Of his feet they decid-
ed that it was worth while to have
shoes made especially for him. As
special lasts had to be made and
the shoes could not go into lasting
machines, it took three weeks to
turn them out. They are said to
be the largest pair of shoes for act
ual wear ever made in Massachu-
sets.

Women on french Raiiwava.

In France there are 1870 wo-
men employed as gatekeepers a:
the railroad crossings. They get
very small pay, but the railroads
provide each one with a house and
a small garden patch rent free.
These women work every day in
the year. They may not leave their
posts for a day off, even on Sun
days and holidays, and their work
ing days are from fifteen to eight
cen hours long. Five thousand two
hundred and seventy-hve of these
earn not more than $500 a
month 100 receive from that sum
up to $3.50; 1000 get from $4.82
to $7.72, and 6oI from S7.0I to
Stool. Only sixty women get
higher wages than this, and none
gets more than S3I.84 a month.
