Professor Elrod, Of the University
of Montana gives striking description
Of the treasure that his State possesses
In sapphires. The only systematic
mining for these precious stones in
the United States is done In Montana.
The annual output amounts to $4,000
or 10000 carats, including the stones
that are suitable for cutting as gems
and those that are only useful for me-
chanical purposes. 1t is said that the
lapidaries in Helena do finer work
than is done on the stones that are sent
TO London to be cut. Perhaps some
body will suggest that Montana should
be called the Gem State" In view of
the fact that her output Of precious
stones exceeds the production in that
line Of all the rest of the United States.

GOOD INCOMES AS AGENTS.
Life Insurance Work q Profitable
Field for Women, Says One EN-.
thusiastic Feminine Solicitor.

Life insurance work offers profita-
BILE field to women nowadays. If she be
bright and energetic she easily can real
ize an income of S. 900 year. Her COM
missions depend entirely on her own en-
deavors.
THE possibilities for women in the
life insurance are limitless," said one of
the best known women workers with
all the women that are working at it
now it still is a practically unworked
field.
From my experience in the business
I should say that it is the best possible
line for a woman to enter She is abso-
lutely independent, and, best of all, she
knows she is making money. Further
more, she is able to lift herself out of the
rut Of woman's occupations in general.
I'm life insurance a woman has the
most broadening experience. She meets
all classes of people. In short time she
develops new faculties. She learns to
read human nature, which is the telling
part of the business. For her own benefit
I should advise any young girl or woman
whose circumstances compel her to earn
her own living to grasp these excellent
opportunities"

Mirror-Writinr.

In a recent case of mirror writing a
boy of seven or eight wrote unusually
we'll, but in this singular reversed style,
and some months later, after acquiring
the normal method of writing, would re-
turn to his original style on becoming
fatigued. DR.. c. D. Jones, of Boston,
in reporting the case, states that the
anomaly seems to be more common in
England than in America. In one group
of 451 the percentage of mirror-writers
was 81, but in many reported instances
the specimens have proven to be merely
those of poor penmanship. Various ex-
plantations of the popularity have been
offered. 1t seems to be most common
with mental disease, but has been OBJ
served in persons of normal mental
capacity, and one explanation is that it
is Que to left-handedness and some pre-
ponderating influence of the left brain.

possible to tell it from the real article
is another new thing which has the
recommendation of being at any rate
very clever.
Winter gloves are being made in
much the same shapes and colors this
year, but the style illustrated is partic-
ularly elegant. They are made of fine
buckskin in two colors only, tan and
slate, and are fastened in a very easy
and uncommon way, while the lining
is woolly and warm, and a squirrel fur
belt round the wrist adds to the CON-
fort and effect.
Nearly all the hand-stitched gloves
worn in this country are made abroad
in France, Vienna and other places,
but to such perfection have the stitch
ing machines been brought recently
that very nearly as fine york can be
done by them. and there is a tendency,
accordingly, for the work to be Kept ct
home.

r INTERVIEWED by the Boston
1 Globe of what the perfect hand
should be like. Mr.. Frederick Pen
berthy had some interesting informa-
ton, and quickly destroyed the popular
belief that,it is the smallest hand that
is the ideal one.
Apparently the ideal size is that which
a 6A glove will fit, and Mr.. Penberthy
thinks that a well-shaped hand in this
size looks as elegant as it is possible
to look. The ideal hand must be fairly
fleshy, with tapering fingers, and such
a hand as this will show off glove to
the best advantage, filling out every
