But for WifeIy Objection, Would fm
Office With Pretty stenoaraphers.


Columbus, Ohio. April Ex-senator
Mark A. Hanna in his address to the
students Of the Ohio University today
made the statement that he would
hire girl stenographers every time
in preference to men. and were 1t not

more industrious, more efficient and
a good deal safer. Besides I admire

Governor Nash and Congressman
Grosvenor and they too, joined in the
burst of enthusiasm which followed
the frank statement Of the senator

the chapel of the college and his talk
was an informal one, dealing with the
advantages OF young men and wo-
men created by higher education.

Houston Invaded ny Bees.

Houston, Tex, April 22.-Immense
swarms of honey bees settled on
Houston's business center this after
noon. The air was filled with them
and the pavements were literally GOV
cred. People fed into buildings and
a small panic ensued. The attack
came suddenly and the bees appeared
to be in good humor, as they did but
little singing. After a quarter of an
hour the insects SUDDENLY arose and
departed as quickly as they came
The experience was a brand new one
for Houston. The insects appeared
to number millions. From whence
they came is a mystery.

TIMES co BY TURNS,

The Topped tree in time may, grow again;
flower;
The sorriest wight may find release of pain
The driest soul suck in some moistening
shower:
Times go by turns, and chances change by
course.
From foul to fair, from better hap tc
worse.
The sea of fortune doth not ever flow;
She draws her favcrS to the lowest ebh;
Her tides have equal times to come and go;
Her loom doth weave the fine and coars
est web;
No joy so great but runneth to an end,
No hap so hard but may in fine amend.
Not always full of leaf. nor ever spring.
The saddest birds season find to sing,
The toughest storm calm may soon
allay.
= Thus, with succeeding turns, God temper,
That man may hope TO rise, yet fear to
"A chance may win that by mischance was
The net that holds no great takes little
In some things all, in all things none are
cross'd;
. Few all they need, bu: rome have all they
wish.
Unmingled joys here to no man befall;
Who least, hath some; who most, hath
never all.

The jacket is made of fronts and

A Shamrock Green Parasol.

Out of compliment TO the Erin and
tie gallant Sir Thomas Upton, one
sees and hears Of shamrock green i'll
ribbons, Sashes. cravats and veiinss.
Green and white make cOol-!coking
summer toilet. and it requires little
persuasion to prejudice good Ameri-
cans in favor of shamrock color. At
any rate q great deal Of it is now seen
along the Massachusetts and Rhode
Island coast.
Shamrock green silk parasols make
vt:y acceptable sunshades. The true
shamrock parasol has a teakwood or
ivory handle with the pretty little en-
blems of the shamrock carved on the
fiattened handle. This is much easier
to hold than q perfectly smooth, round
handle, which is apt to slip through
the fingers on occasions.

Officers Horses.

The proposition that every officer of
the cavalry be required to own his
own horse and that each officer be priv
ileged to buy any horse in his troop
has been made to the Secretary Of War
and will be referred by him to the War
College Board for action. The regula-
ton requiring cavalry officers to own
their mounts has not been enforced
within recent years owing to the un'
certainty of the service and the posi-
bility that the officer might at any time
be ordered to the Philippines. The
proposition that officers be allowed to
purchase any horse in their command
is said to have been opposed by the
board OH changes in the army regula-
tions, although approved by the cav
airy beard. It is claimed that by
adopting such regulation dissatisfac-
ton would ensue among the men, who
could never he certain that they would
retain their individual mounts. There
will he much interest in the recommen-
lation of the Army War College Board
in regard 10 this matter.-The Army

and becoming are always in demand.
The one by May Manton, shown IN the
large engraving, fultills all the require
ments and is suited to Il variety OF ma

are more satisfactory made over the
fitted foundation.
The gown consists Of the lining, the
fronts, back, under-arm cores, yoke,
bertha and sleeves. The lining Is fitted.
but the gown is gathered to the yoke
and falls in long, unbroken lines to the
floor. The bertha is shaped to form ex-
tensions over the shoulders and to give
the fashionable stole effect at the front.
The sleeves are made to fit snugly nj
their upper PORTIONS, but form full
puffS at the wrists.

Not a Clear Title.

Tie word "furlough' occurred in q
reading lesson Of primary grade IL
one of the public schools, says the
Philadelphia Ledger. The teacher
asked if any boy or girl knew the
meaning of the word.
One small hand was raised and sha'
ken vigorously in the eagerness Of the
urchin to display his knowledge. When
he received permission to speak he
rose and with the greatest assurance
said:
"Furlough means mule"
Not whit disturbed at the teacher
"Oh, no, it doesn't" the small boy con-
fidently answered.:
II have the book at home that says
So" Then the teacher told him ne
might bring the book to school and
show it TO her.
The next morning he came armed
with the book, and triumphantly
showed her the picture of an American
soldier astride a mule. under which
was printed, Going home Oh his fur
lOugh.'

More About ltadium.

Radium does not get it's energy from
air. as some scientists seem to suppose,
but very proba bly, from changes within
the atoms Of which it is composed. 1t
is believed that these atoms are the
heaviest in the universe. 1t is possible
that. after hundreds of thousands OF
years, radium may devolve into simpler
elements, and so pass right through the
series to hydrogen. Scientists do not
now believe that the elements" are
really elemental. There is really only
one element. But radium is its most
remarkable form. Great curiosity Is
being manifested in the specimens now
being publicly exhibited at the London
Natural History Museum-three tiny
grains in a watch glass, shining as
they have done since before man ap'
peared on the earth. The camera ex-
hibit seems to give the most satlsfac'
ton. In 1t some sulphide Of zinc mas
been painted with radium, and in the
dark it glows with q soft green light.
This part of the exhibit will not require
renewal for 10000 years. Other inter
esting metals in the exhibit are thorium
and helium. Thorium is the main In
gredient Of the incandescent mantle
Helium is so light that the earth's revo.
luton has whisked nearly all Of it Oh
into space. What remains is probably
new formed by the breaking down OF
the atoms of radium-if the word atom
can be applied to what has at least
10000 parts.-Harper's Weekly.

The Life of q Seed.

The United States Department of Ag
riculture is making experiments foI
the purpose of determining the extreme
vitality Of seeds. Over a hundred
species of plants have been packed
in a soil consisting of dry clay en-
closed in pots, and buried at varying
depths underground-eight sets at a
depth Of six inches, twelve at a depth
of twenty, and third set of twelve
at a depth of three and half feet. Al
the end of one, two, three, five, seven
ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty-five. thirty
forty and fifty years, set from each
depth will be exhumed and tested
The results of the experiment are likely
to be of extraordinary value to agri
culturists, both commercially and
scientifically. incidentally, it may be
recalled that authentic cases are on
record which prove that certain seeds
have the power of sprouting after hav,
ing been buried for long periods OF
time, reliable tests having shown that
twelve out of twenty-one species have
the power of terminating after twenty
years.-Harper's Weekly.

Youth o. the World.

We may adopt as an approximate
figure for the age of man period OF
two hundred and fifty thousand gears
which is believed to have fair claims
to provisional acceptance. Further
more, calculations based on the ra1e
of solar shrinkage and upon other data
seem to suggest a period of about
three millions of years during which
animal life will continue to be possible
On the earth. Assuming these two hs-
ures fairly to indicate the facts we
may take it that the human race mas
only completed one-thirteenth OF us
history. In this sense, therefore, the
world is young.-The Academy.

if this is only the trade name of an ar

any rate it is stylish, whether used as
soft breast plumes OR the sitter wing

fects, and most Of the feather trim

That is the problem which frequently
confronts everyone-especially parents
with small children. A slight Illness
treated at once often saves long
period Of sickness and expense-some-
times prevents death. The trouble is
that so few people can think on the in
slant what treatment to apply, even If
they have the knowledge necessary to
recognize the disease and know what
simple remedies are best. To meet tits
want at small expense the Book Pub
fishing House, 1874 Leonard street. New
