Apartment Hotel People.
Architectural Record.

For one thing apartment hotels are PEI
culiarly suited to the needs of well-to-do
business men, who live in other cities than
New York. but who are obliged from one
cause or another to pass several months
each year in the metropolis. For another
the lessees of these buildings state that
New York families who have country
places, and pass, perhaps, seven or eight
months of each year in the country fire.
quently rent apartments in these buildings.
which they can use not only during their
months in the city. but on the frequent oc-
casions al all seasons when they run UP 20
town for day or two. Yet, after all these
apartment hotel tenants are accounted for,
there still remain large numbers who do not
come under these heads. Thousands of
steady New Workers have been moving into
them-people who are neither business nor
social BoEemians. and people who pass as
much time in the city az do the great ma
jority. They take TO this life partly because
Tin spite of its trappinss) IL can be made
cheap, and partly because IL reduces the
trouble of living TO a minimum. For these
people the servant problem, the price of
coal or the Vaccinations of the beef trust
simply do not exist. Once week they sign
a check. thereby pressing the button The
manager does the rest.

Place the upper horizontal branch Of

that the vertical part of the wire shall
not touch the inside Of the glass. Over
the lower branch Of the wire hand a
piece of tin foil and then place on top
Of the glass an ordinary tin plate.
Now what you have to do is to cleo
trify the tin foil, and this you can do
by rubbing the glass rod or stick OF
sealing wax with woolen cloth and
holding it close to the tin plate, when
the two ends Of the tin foil will fly

a rooIIsH ON nACHrLoR.

This man was an old bachelor, and
his kind do some mighty foolish things.
He was sixty years old, owned a quar-
ter section farm worth $4,000 and was
free from debt. The recent land craze
struck him. He fell into the tolls of
smooth tongued land agent who gave
him a free ride up to the jumping off
place in British Columbia, where he
was induced to buy $4,000 worth of
range land at So per acre. He gave
his note for the first payment Of $4,000,
which his local bank discounted, and
loaded himself up with yearly inter-
est charge of 5000, while he rented his
good farm for $500 per annum. AS
he paid as much for his Canada land
as it will probably be worth twenty
years from now, he has got himself
into a nice financial fix. Had he mar
ried some bright woman years ago, it
Is not likely that he would have done
SO foolish thing. Don't be an old
bachelor.

DON'T BURN THE LEAvEs.

Don't burn the leaves in the fall.
Never mind the litter. The snow will
soon cover them up. If you let them
alone, the winds will whirl them up
around the shrubs and plants and thus
furnish the incest sort Of a winter pro
lection. And, come to think Of 1t, we
would not burn them even In the
spring, for they make the very best
mulching material to be had. Rake
them up and put them under the cur
rant and berry bushes, where they win
finally decay and form rich leaf
mold. Leaves were never made to be
burned.

The writer was well acquainted with
DR.. Sheldon Jackson, home mission
ary who for years worked among the
native tribes of Alaska. 1t was largely
through his agency that the govern
ment was induced several years ago to
make an experimental shipment of rein
deer from Siberia to Alaska. This has
proved to be a great success, these ami
mails very readily adapting themselves
to and thriving well under Alaskan con-
ditlons. The small herd imported has
now grown to very large one, and the
reindeer bids fair to solve the problem
of internal transportation for that coun-
try.

The elephant took his trunk along

The peacock was starter and missed no

The old ones chose the gnu,

But the giraffe he won by a neck.

Now listen to the woes of lightning
rod man. He lit down in Nebraska
with a team of good horses, new
spring wagon, timber tongue and a
lot of rods. He was all prepared to rod
up a lot of the unsophisticated old
grangers of that state. In just a week
he was after warrants for the arrest Of
twelve of these grangers who he
claimed had beaten him out Of every
thing he had In trading horses, so that
he had lost his team and his rig and
his rods and had to walk back to town.
Finding out that Nebraska law did not
prohibit men from making horse
trades, he took the first train for the
east with no money and lot Of expe-

The state of Iowa has taken marked
step in advance in the matter Of work

road taxes are to be paid in cash. The
good old times are gone never to re-

call of the road supervisor. plow few
burrows alongside the highway so as to
dam up the water and spend much
time lying down in the shade Of cot
tonwood tree spinning yarns which he
dare not tell at home, going home at

the afternoon, getting credit for work
to the amount OF $3.50 faithfully ap-
piled on the public highway. John will
now pay his $3.50 in money, and some
man will be hired to do days work of
ten hours under the supervision OF a
township officer. and twice the work
