after she had finished making her

"Oh, DO you honestly! You are

then Mrs. M. ordered the pillow

Shortly afterward the doctors
were announced, and the great spe-

then gave a quizzical look at the
nurse.

questions.

We copy the following article from
the Chicago Art Journal about Miss
Mary Hinman Steele, one of Hart
lands well known young ladies, who
for the past four years has been
among the leading teachers of voice
culture in Chicago:
One Of the most interesting events
of the month was the recital given
at Handel hall June l by the pupils
of Miss Mary Human Steele, assist
ed by Miss Clara Zero of Cham
paign, ILL.,, former pupil of Miss
Steele The reputation of Miss
Steele as a vocal teacher, already
high, was distinctly enhanced by
the quality of the work done by her
pupils on this occasion, many of
them showing inherent talent wisely
and artistically developed, and all of
them bearing the unmistakable
stamp of musical culture and refine
ment which results only from studio
training of high order. The sing
ing of Miss Zero in the stern waltz
song" was marked by vocal surety
and technical efficiency, tho fruit OF
intelligent study, and song of sim
liar character sung by Miss Ellen
Stone Denza's Sing n")evidenced
the possession Of similar qualifca-

WHAT WILL MISS BELL UsE2
Maple Syrup, Hard Cider or Cham
payne for the VermOnfs Bow2

Gov. Bell has named his older
daughter, Miss Jennie Bell, to break
the customary bottle over the bow
of the battleship Vermont when it
is launched at Quincy, Mass, on
Aug. 81.
Much pleasantly has appeared in
the State press over what should be
used at the launching. Maple
syrup has been suggested by several
editors as Vermont's most typical
product. Others think a bottle of
hard cider would be fitting for a
truly rural State. AS nothing Off
cial has been announced it has been
taken for granted that champagne
viii be used.

The Icnoesnt Bottle.

By the side of a certain portion of
10 suburban railway stands a glue
factory which sometimes gives out a
particularly offensive smell. A lady
who was obliged to travel on this
line quite often always carried with
her bottle Of lavender salts. One
morning an old farmer took the seat
beside her. AS the train neared the
factory the lady opened her bottle
of salts. Soon the whole car was
filed with the horrible odor Of the
glue. The old farmer put up with
It as long as he could. Then he
shouted, MADAM, would you mind
