SOUND ADVICE FOR MEN.

weaker sex have been exhorted, ad
vised and ridiculed; and a long lis
of conduct of the negative sort mappa,
out beginning with DON'T, and al
equally lengthy array of the positive
sort, starting with DO.
And all this sage advice applies il
turn to maid and wife, debutante anC
dowager.
Now what's sauce for the goose I.
sauce for the gander. Why not some
advice to men?
Are you one Of those men who con
tinually leave their personal belong

them?
Do you smoke your cigar in the par

lar Friday cleaning? And you en-
deavor to placate your wife with that
superior sophistry about cigar ashes
keeping out moths.
Do You bury yourself in the morn
ing paper, even reading while eating,
while your wife sits silent at the head
of tn table? Do you exclaim, or
chuckle, or swear softly at the latest
news, without sharing your informa-
ton with her?
Do you compliment the little wo-
man when you ar9 enjoying one of
your good dinners, Oh do you find fault
if the morning coffee is just the least
bit below standard, though the pre-
vious twenty-five mornings you have
drunk the amber liquid of SURPRISING
excellence?
Do you notice the new gown that
has cost her days of thought and eff
fort? Or do you say You women
spend a whole lot of unnecessary
thought and time upon clothes" and
then take your new top-coat back to
the tailor the sixth time because "it
doesn't set just right?"
Do you surprise your wife coca
sionally by getting seats at the theatre
and giving her a surprise party of
two? Or do you say "Aw, go to the
matinee if you want to see the show
I'll go to the ball game?
Do you tell her of your plans, your
work, your perplexities? Do you
share with her your hopes and fears?
Do you let her know of the real life
you lead so many hours each day?
Or do you turn her questions with q
brief women know nothing aOout
business. 1t will only worry you?
Do you sometimes take her in your
arms and say Little woman, you are
good wife-a real help-meet."? Do
you ever tell her the things you did in
the sweetheart days? Or 40 you let
it go. thinking "She knows that any
way"
The woman's field of labor, big man.
Is narrow and circumscribed. 1t is
bounded, ordinarily, by the walls of
the house and the needs of the chill
dren. This is her province and she
glories in it. But know that she
also longs for contact with the big
world, for the mental stimulus that
comes from daily association with men
and affairs, for the joy of recognized
compensation for services rendered.
Because she is your wife, because
she has entered into the~domestic life,
these things are denied her.
Can't you be generous to the little
woman? Can't you welcome her into
your larger life? Can't you make her
your real comrade--your true help
meet?

81 themselves. repayment for the

oxtrnmolv we'll satisfied with the re-
suits seen AT the Fort Romie settle
mont i'm California, and the Fort
Amity settlement in Colorado. The
Ohio settlement he leaves out of con-
alteration, as it Is principally devoted
10 the redemntion of inebriates, and
the carving out of agricultural expert
ments. At both Forts Romie and
Amity, he found the settlers healthy,
happy, hopeful and almost without
exception doing well. Beginning in
nearly every case with nothing, in the
course of about four years at Fort Ro-
mic. he found these settlers worth
about $1,000 per head, above all their
debts and liabilities to the salvation
Army and others, and at Fort Amlty,
an average of over $1,000 head,
which he thinks is more than they
could have possibly accumulated dur
ing the same period as day laborers on
the land or in the cities.
Reason For Wide Encouragement.
It is true that, although the set
tiers themselves are doing well the
Salvation Army, for the reason that
unexpected difficulties in the OPEN
ing up of the land were encountered,
was called upon to pay some 100000
for its experience. Mr.. Haggard de-
clares, however, that under all the cir
cumstances, and in the face of the
principles demonstrated, and the sue
cess won in every other direction, this
experience has been very cheaply
bought
Further" he says, az cannot see
any cause to fear repetition of that
loss in the future application of these
principles. 1t is therefore totally in
accurate to say, as has been done
widely in press summaries of my re-
port. that these settlements are flnan-
ciaily n failure"
Would systematic Philanthropy
Mr.. Haggard proposes a scheme,
l. e." to combine a judicious use of
the public credit, with that of what
have called, the waste forces of be-
nevolence,' and by means of these
two levers, to lift some of the mass of
human misery, which demonstrates
itself in the great cities of civilization,
TO n new level of plenty and content
ment."
He believes that If settlements are
carried out ON these lines, and espec-
tally If they are located upon good
land, which has cost the controlling
authorities little or nothing, there
should be, as is indicated by the ia
bles furnished in this report, no loss,
but even considerable gain.

4 Dress Made or Postage Stamps.

An American lady wore ball dress
at ball in Bermuda recently in which
10000 stamps were used. Years were
spent in the collection, and the dress
was covered with stamps of all ma
tions. An eagle made entirely with
brown Columbian stamps was the cen
ire of the breast. Suspended from the
talons was a globe made of very old
blue revenue stamps. On either side
of the globe was an American flag,
the stripes of blue and red stamps. A
collection of foreign stamps was past

KING LEOPOLD OF BELGIUM.

mesnes are at Villefranche sur Mere,
near Nice. They are called the Col du
Caire, and the Passable. Both have
been enlarged some few years ago,
notably the Passable, to which has
been added the whole of the western
side of Cape Ferrat. In this portion
of the newly acquired property small
port has been constructed for the
Kings yacht.
Lady Henry Somerset, who is well
known in this country from her great
work in the interest of the temperance
movement, has woman footman, a
female butler, and women in charge of
her stables.
Members of reigning families,
princes as well as princesses of the
blood, have to obtain permission from
the sovereign before they can leave
the country. They are always expect
ed to notify the monarch when they
intend to absent themselves from the
town or city where the court happens
to be in residence at the time.
The late King Humbert of Italy on
one occasion called his niece, Duchess
Helen of Aosta, to severe account for
having left Italy to visit her mother
in France without previously obtaining
his sanction.
This rule, which Viceroy Lord Curzon
also introduced in India, caused almost
open rebellion among number of the
more powerful maharajahs and gaek-
wars of the empire, who on number
of occasions disregarded the Viceroy's
rule and left the empire not only with
out his sanction but against his strict
est instructions.
The wealth of some of the Russian
churches in costly gems, jewelry and
precious stones is proverbial. Some
churches in the United States, notwith-
standing they are not supported by the
government, as they are in Russia and
other countries, are gradually acquir-
ing rare paintings, statuary, stained
glass windows and costly vestments.
For instance, the most costly mitre in
the United States, a mitre which rep
rescnts $4,000 worth of jewels and
precious stones, is worn by Bishop
Horstmann of the Cleveland diocese of
the Roman Catholic Church. Most of
these jewels were presented to the
church by Mr.. Gordon, who also donat-
ed to the city of Cleveland his magnifi-
cent Gordon Park. Mr.. Gordon was
father of Mrs Daisy Hanna, wife
OF Dan. Hanna, son of the late Senator
Hanna. VAN CALAVA.
