GLORY OF THE GRADUATING GIRL

Mad just stepped out of a flower
h-< bed. In her cheeks the carnation
had left its glow and her lips had
robbed the roses. She was a healthy,
fragrant, glowing, American girl, of a
type that we love and protect and
honor.
Her essay or grafton? Something
that told of throbbing hope and ambi-
ton and rosy skies. Hard knocks are
few in the chrysalis period. Why
shouldn't this graduation girl for a
time believe in the entire goodness of
the world believe in perpetual sun
shine? The band plays raggy music
for her now; her pulses quicken and
she is happy. 1t is well. Why should
she know that further down the path
there are no flowers, the bands do not
play and the clouds often shut out the
sun?

Graduation Girl. Let her glory in her
triumphs and be proud Of her attain

MACHINE FOR RIPPING SEAMS.
A Colorado Woman Has Invented a
Special Tool for the Task.

A Colorado Woman Has Invented a
Special Tool for the Task.
A Colorado woman. Mrs. A. M. Min
ter of Petersburg. has made a bid for
fortune and the gratitude Of the rest
of her sex by inventing a new weapon
for the sewing table. She calls 1t a
seam ripper.
1t is a double edged knife with one
edge jagged to do the ripping. A
hook is attached to the knife and
with this the threads of ripped seams
can be pulled out by a slight turn of
the wrist.
The ripping of seams in making
over old clothes is the meanest part
Of such a task. Mrs. Minter says her
implement makes 1t easy.
The idea came to her where she was
ripping up some baby clothes. She
had worked on them in turn with scis-
sors, knife, a razor and corn knife
and none of these was satisfactory,
SO she invented special tool.
She has patented 1t since. and she
says she has received an offer of $l0,-
900 for the patent, but she expects to
receive even bigger price for her
simple contrivance.

Incident Of the Bowery Which 10 Both
Strange and True.
This occurrence, improbable as 1t
may seem, actually happened in this
city.
A certain large pawnbrokerage
house which has number of separate
places OF business employs an expert
accountant to examine its accounts
once a month. The accountant has a
nne gold repeater and stop watch
which was given to him by his faith
or and for that reason is valued by
him at even more than Its intrinsic
value.
This accountant, who lives in Brook.
lyn, went to the pawnbroker's the
other day from his home. He crossed
the 10th street ferry and reached the
Bowery on q cross-town car, walking
the rest of the distance to the store.
Instead OF passing through the pri-
vats hall to the rear once. as he does
usually, he entered the section where
the loans are made. As he passed
through the door he encountered q
young man who was rushing out in
such a hurry that he almost knocked
down the accountant. Behind the
counter one OF the clerks was laugh
ing and holding something in his hand.

asked him.

He looked. then clapped his hand
on his watch pocket. The pocket was
empty.
That's my watch" he said, and
opening the case showed to the clerk,
no less surprised than was the ac-
countant. the inscription his father
had engraved on the inside cover.
The thief had picked his pocket
probably in the crowded little car.
and had rushed to the pawnbroker's,
beating him there by only minute
