Familyless New York.

Walking up Fifth avenue and out
through Central Park the Sunday that
1 landed in New York, among all the
varying and sad impressions made
upon me, 1 was especially moved to
inquire, Where are American families?
What in the world is the matter with
American men, and who taught Amer
lean girls their manners?
saw men and women promenading
together and saw not few children
romping unattended by their elders or
else in the company Of nurses. l saw
nowhere what makes the chief beauty
of all Paris avenues and parks Sunday
fternoons-innumerab family par
ties-fathers and mothers with their
children, small and big, often the
grandparents, too, gayly going along,
glad of the sunshine, the fresh air, the
exercise, and most of all, glad to be
together in their pleasure.
Then the girls 1 saw on Fifth av-
enue, promenading in pairs or in
groups, with swinging stride, laugh
ing loud, and talking louder. Where
do they get their manners? In Paris,
the home of the grisette, les petites
femmes, it is the rarest possible thing
to see a girl of irnmodest bearing on
the street-myself, during two years.
residence here, l have never seen it.
This, l think, results largely from the

Convincing the barometer.

Sir Archibald Geikie tells a story in
his book, Scottish "reminiscences"
which he says is characteristic Of the
simplicity of some of the Scots It
concerns a farmer in the Cheviot Hills
who had been told that it would be
useful to have a barometer in the
house, for it would let him know
whether the weather would be good or
bad.
After he had been persuaded to buy
an aneroid barometer, which has a
large round dial, he hung it up in his
hall, and duly consulted it each day,
but without much edifcaton.
At last there came a spell of wet
weather The barometer continued to
record, "set fair" The rain continued
to fall heavily, and still the dial made
no sign Of truth. Then the farmer
temper rose.
He took the instrument from the
nail and marched with it to the bot
tom of the garden, where brook,
swollen with the drainage from the up
per slopes, was rushing along, brown
and muddy. He plunged the baro-
meter into the food.
"Will you believe your ain cen now,

can citizens In 1890 only about 50 per cent of the enlisted men in the navy were natives of the United States, but in 1903 the proportion of natives had risen to more than 90 per cent and the chances are that the current fiscal year will see an advance in excess of a5 per cent. These figures not only afford a sufficient answer 10 the stupid assertion sometimes heard in certain European quarters that the enlisted force of the United States navy is an incongruous assemblage of aliens, but they show that 1t is perhaps more largely made up of natives of the nd- tion Is represents than is to be found in any other navy in the world. An other suggestive fact is that most of our naval recruits come from the in land states. and on this point a navy officer is quoted by the Baltimore Sun as saying: We are getting the best men of the navy from the farms of Indiana, Illinois. Iowa and Kansas. We are training them ourselves and don't need 10 take foreigners, as we did ten years ago when we had no men trained for the sea in our llnd.'-Kansas City Journal.
