Mistakes in Pictures.
From the Chicago News.


A well-meaning artist Of the eighteenth
century painted picture In which Abra-
ham was depicted as about to sacrifice Isaac
with blunderbuss. The actual event
which the artist had striven to depict ante
dated the use of firearms by about 5000
years. There are also pictures of the Israel
ties crossing the Red sea, the men armed
with muskets and other weapons of modern
manufacture. In the matter of costume the
early painters found a stumbling block In
the Edinburgh National Gallery Is picture
In which Pharaoh's daughter and her ladies
are arrayed in the long WASTED bodices and
hooped skirts common to Europe in the six
tenth century.
In another picture of the same date, rep
resenting Joseph and His Kindred In
Egypt which is hung in the national col
lection in London. there is no trace of the
distinctive features of Egyptian architec-
ture about the buildings; they are all Ital-
Ian In type. In painting by Paolo Veron-
ese in the same gallery, THE Family of
Darius at the Feet of Alexander After the
Battle of Issus." the women wear pointed
waists and enormously dlstended skirts, al
though the incident occurred in the year
$50 B. C. The artist was a Venetian and he

was so familiar. 1t was only when travel
ers came to visit the holy land and saw the
people there. unchanged In sentiment, habit
and customs for centuries. that they came
to realize that the pictures were wrong.

Criminal Insurance.

Criminal Insurance." said a detective,
rs the insurance that thieves and black
legs take out in case Of arrest For In
stance: You are second-story man. You
make about $3.50 year. the average sec
ond-story mans income, and you carry an
insurance Of $1,000. for which you pay the
big premium OF s125 a year. Now. If you
are arrested the insurance company steps
forward and hands you $1,000. Thus, you
are able to get the best Of lawyers for your
defense. Receivers Of stolen goods are
usually rich and 1t Is these men, as rule
who carry on the criminal insurance bust
ness. l know of criminal insurance COM
pany in Philadelphia another in New York
and q third in ST. Louis. The policies run
from 500 up to 5000 and the premiums
are always enormous. This is because the
danger of arrest Is great. Besides the
criminal insurance concerns I know of a
curious beneficial orgarizat ion that is con-

Effect Of Tobacco on Human Economy.

From American Medicine.
From the exultant chronicle Of the death
from old age, at 10. of the constant tobacco
user. to the triumphant citation OF tho
small boy dropping dead as the result or
smoking cigarettes, we find the whole gamut
of denunciation and approval of the to-
bacco habit. Critics who conserve the gol-
den mean In speech and writing possibly
are fewer than the users of Tobacco who
occupy a similar enviable position In the
employment Of the weed For this reason
the temperate and authoritative discussion
of the subject by half dozen writers in
the July Practitioner is particularly yalu-
able. Sir Lauder Brunton. in speaking OF
the effect of tobacco on the heart and circu-
lation, says smoking in moderation does
not seem to be injurious to adults. but there
Is general consensus of opinion that IT IS
distinctly harmful to growing boys What
to some would be sufficient justification for
its use Is his statement that In adults II

but 1t Is difficult to say to what extent they
are due to nervous or Cfrculatory changes.

and seems more often due to an inferior

that great caution must be exercised In

Crown Princess and Peasant.


Last summer. when the duchess and
Nine. Dene were going for a run in their
motor at Peterhof, they CHANGED upon
an aged peasant driving homo from
town In q diiapidated cart. In which
he had managed to store away at
least three generations OF his family
The instant the motor came In sight
the horse bolted. scattering to right
and left the occupants of the vehicle The
German crown princess. Of course, at once
stopped and ordered her chauffeur to assist
the old farmer to catch the runaway ami
NAL. while she and Nine. Dene set to work
in helping the women and children out Of
the bitches. Now. the princess has a
marked aversion to fine feathers and
usually walks abroad in a simple blouse
and skirt and a sailor hat; consequently,
when she appeared on the scene. an irate
old woman Of the party shook her fist in
her face and babe her get Ito the devil"
The duchess. though naturally somewhat
dismayed by this reception. would not be
ousted. and at last persuaded the old wo-
man to allow her to drive her and her
children home in her car. Up to the pres
ent day the farmer and his wife are fgno-
rant as to who the tall young lady might
be. neither do they know the source of
various mysterious gifts that find their
way periodically to their humble home.

The Country Gentleman.

From the Atlantic.
In La Bruyere's Characters Of Theo-
phrastus there is a sketch of the country
gentleman as he appeared to the Athenian
civilian of the fourth century B. C. Your
countryman. says Theophrastus, talks in a
loud. unrestrained voice, wears heavy shoes.
eats not daintily. but voraciously-he cares
not what's eccentrlcally familiar with his
servants and likes to contemplate oxen
surely a dull occupation. He will care
lessly interrupt his dinner to go feed his
cattle or to chat with any one who knocks
at his door-surely, to a civilians mind a
great disrespect to the function of dining,
that gastronomic ceremony. the climax of
the day and synosure of its ordered pro-
prieties. Again, continues Theophrastus
when your countryman comes to town, he
Is always asking prices and testing the
money paid him to see If 1t is honest

embarrassment Of his friends he sings out
loud in the public baths: he lifts his robe
most indecorously high, and remarks,
apropos of nothing, that it is time for a
new moon and that he intends to get
shaved.

Sofero Castle,
From the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
The castle of Sofiero. which the King and
Queen of Sweden have presented to Prince
Gustavus Adolphus and Princess Margaret,
lies on the coast Of southern Sweden in the
narrowest part of the sound. This royal
chateau, which has no history Of Its own,
lies near Helsinborg-a town that should
be dear to the hearts OF the royal family

A Woman Buyers Salary.
From the Pilgrim.

From the fIgtlIn
The salary of the woman buyer is often
exaggerated but matter of fact 1t va
ries very much according to the depart
ment and the demands made upon It;
Many of them get $40 a week or $4,000
a year. and here and there Is one who gets
a salary between $4,000 and 5000 year.
But while some have large pay. there are
more who have not. There seems to be
tendency to the subdivision OF depart
ments, and as a buyer under these condi-
lions requires less wide experience, as
well as less administrative ability, the pay
is not as large. For instance some stores
have a separate department for corsets.
another for baby clothes, and a third for
underwear: while one firm makes still an
other distinction with Its department of i'm
ported lingerie. On the other hand, one
store has all these in one department, with
in her city at its head.
The work Of the regular department
buyer includes not only the supplying Of
stock, but the oversight of the whole de-
superintendence of the help; and the latter
where the department is large Is an i'm
portant feature of the work. There is one
woman who has had many as eighty
girls working under her at one time. The
buyers as a rule. cultivate very pleasant
relations with the help. AS business women
they realize that the best of their lives Is
spent with the girls because they can
sympathize with them in the hardships OF
store life. they take advantage Of many
opportunities for kindness. The good
buyer has the welfare of her department
very much at heart and this makes her
particular about many things. 1t Is need
full, too that her help be well trained. The
designing of new goods Is usually one Of
the duties of the buyer, as 1t Is also her
work to keep informed on all new Styles
1t is surprising how even in the department
of underwear there is SO much change and
variety,
