British Museum Treasures.

Among the many costly treasures to
be found in the British museum is the
"Mainz Psalter," the second book
known to have been printed that bears
a date and which is valued at $4,000.
The books printed by Caxton represent
to the museum fortune in themselves,
while the Elgin marbles represent an
enormous value only to be estimated
in millions. The Rosetta stone might
fetch anything from 100000 to $780,
100000, and the Nineveh bulls with
human heads would be cheap at $780,
600.

routine during the day. And, above all,
after the round of winter gayeties, there's
the sea shore for the summer, with its
freedom and its health giving ocean
breezes. The chances of health are all
in favor of the girl that goes to the shore
and all against the girl that stays In the

It is trying to nerves and temper. The
long, languid days, the oppressive atmo-
sphere, the monotonous round of duties
are all trying. And when to this is adj
ded womanly weakness, the condition is
well-nigh unbearable. And yet it must
be borne for money must be earned If
life is to be sustained.
Every working woman owes it to her
self to bring her physical health to the
highest standard of excellence-not only
because it increases her happiness, but
also because it increases her earning ca
pacity. It is a cruel fact that the floor

says Miss Flora 1. Greer, of Io7 Howe
Street, Akron, Ohio. uMy troubles
started during my childhood but did not
prove serious until 1898, when met with
an accident caused by horse running
away. From that time did not see a

period with terrible headache, irritation
of the spine and pains in my heels so I
could not bear them resting on the soft

never describe. 1 had soreness through
my hips and ovaries all the time and con-
slant backache. Was afraid to be alone,
imagined that everyone hated me, and

doctor would tell me one thing allied me,
another would say something altogether

Summer at the Shore and Sum-

II is sometimes remarked that the re-
quirements of society entail as much
hard work upon woman as she would
perform in Office or in store. That may
be true. The woman who dances the
night through may travel more miles
than are walked by the woman behind
the counter. Her social obligations may
be as exacting as business duties. But II
the society woman dances all night, she
can sleep all day. If her calls must be
duly paid, she has her carriage in which
to drive. She is not at the mercy of an

Boy Weavers of Persia.

Boys from to II years old do n
great part Of the carpet and rug weav-
ing in Persia. They are very deft.
Having been shown the design and
colorlng Of the carpet they are to work.
the boys rely on their memories for the
rest of the task, says the American
Boy. 1t Is very seldom that you will
see on any Of the looms pattern set
before the workers. The foreman Of
a loom is frequently boy Of from u
to II. He walks up and down behind
the workers calling out in sing song
manner the number Of stitches and the
colors Of the threads to be used. He
seems to have the design imprinted in
his mind. A copy of famous carpet
now at the South Kensngton Museum
is being made. The design and the
coloring are unique, but the boys who
are working on the copy are doing 1t
without the design before them and at
the rate of from thirty to thirty five
stitches a minute. Nothing but hand
work Is employed in the manufacture
Of Persian carpets and rugs, and none
but natural or vegetable dyes are used
This accounts for the superior quality
Of the Persian products. The secret
Of the beautiful dark blue dye used in
the older days has been lost.
