As many changes in the weather as
person could wish for and several
that were not welcome, we're furnished
today. People woke to find the ground
covered with snow A little later the
sun came out. Then the snow began
to sift down gently. Later heavy
snowstorm developed. And in playful
glee the wind sprang up and turned
things into real March blizzard. FL
nally the sun again smiled through the
clouds OF swirling snow.

INVISIBLE HINGE.

An entirely new form of door hinge
has recently been placed on the mar
ket which is said to have number OF
advantages to recommend 1t for all
kinds of uses Besides making very
neat appearance, 1t is particularly de-
sirable where there Is but little room,
such as In Pullman cars and similarly
crowded apartments and Railways.
The hinge consists of three pieces.
When closed the inside and center
pieces engage and pass into the out
side piece. thus concealing the entire
hinge. 1t is unnecessary to take the
hinges apart when mounting. For use
in railway cars or any situation where
space is an important consideration no
room Is needlessly wasted when the
door Is open, rs must occur with the
ordinary bronze butts having an offset
varying with the size of the butt.
If conditions require frequent re-
moyal of doors. MS, for instance, those
on Pullman cars, which are cleaned
after every trip. it is only necessary
to loosen but not remove, n small set

and pass or slip the center piece far

that some blood of Phocean emigrants
from old and artful Ionia is flowing
in her veins
1T says of Mile Dudlay: This is
a noble syle actress, a golden column
OF the repertory, a French comedy's
strength. Her talent is quite trials

Novel Inventions of Note

which are generally poisonous, are
purified by the action of disinfectants.
The can is, first of all, fitted with
double lid, one resting on the top OF
the can and the other on flange
few inches below the top. While this
makes it doubly difficult for the odors
to escape. the entire interior of the
box is constantly undergoing disinfec-
ton. The space between the two lids
is utilized for the storage Of couple
of small tanks, designed to contain
any one of the many disinfectants
which are suitable for this purpose.
The tanks are lined with zinc, which
resists the action of any of these ar
tices. They are readily filled by I'M
unscrewing a cap, and if the recepta-
Gle is about half filled there is no pos
sibility of the contents being spilled.
One of these tanks has an opening
leading out into the bucket and has
direct action on the contents of the
can. while the other one opens into

On leaving the house Jack Harwood
had driven to his club. His bosom
friend, Percy Phillipson-Maude's
brother-was apparently expecting

"All right old MANI" asked Percy.
"Yes-it happened exactly as you
said it would, and I'm awfully obliged
to you. The news would certainly
have caught me at an unguarded mo-
ment IL hadn't been warned-and
then-well, things might have been

sighed with the air of man who has

But she had gone, and Jack saw
her no more that evening.
"Why do want money so badly"

had reached his chambers, drunk his

MEREDITH ON THE NATIONS.
The NoVelist's High Opinion of Amer.
lea and His Sorrows for EnoIand

The Novelist's High Opinion of Amer.
lea and His Sorrows for ENGLAND.
Golfers Weekly .-Meredith has
been talking more than is customary
with him. Following his sensational
utterance on leasehold marriage comes
an interview on things in general in
which the most striking opinion is
that America does right to hold the
Philippines. Meredith, be it remem-
bered is one of the dwindling number
of English Liberals who are ardently
for Irish Home Rule. He is as firm
as John Morley and Earl Spencer.
He was bitterly opposed to England's
awr against the Beers. He is far
removed from sympathy with empires
or Imperialism.
But he is capable Of making a dis.
JUNCTION. He does not in his view of
politics, fix up one geaedal principal
which shall cover every case. He
makes an exception of the Philippines,
because we took them from incidental
necessity, not from greed; because
they are savages, not a people differ.
NAAIiJ Nv lliASd II Jill uS, llhG The Beers.
and because if we give them UP they
will be governed by Spain or Japan.
Meredith believes that we shall gov.
ern the Filipinos well, and in other d.
rections also he thinks very highly of
America. In the United States and
Japan he sees the nations of the fut.
ure, with England sinking to hlm-
bier position, France about holding
her own, and Germany standing well.
Meredith is a great though erratic
thinker; his high opinion of us is
something which we may rightly
value; and for so pronounced aa op-
ponent of oppression to declare in
favor of our policy in the Philippines
is a straw of no small Importance.

HER LULLABlEs.

She sed to write sweet lullabies
For various monthly magazines;
All. they were full of sleepy eyes
And droning notes Of fairy queens.
She used to reel them of with ease,
They brought her gold and also
praise:
Now there's baby on her knees
That makes her wonder at It's ways.
She's writing lullabies no more.
Her Inspirations gone, somehow;
Such fancies as she had before
Keep ever distant from her now;
The lullabies she used to write
Have lost their charm, for while
she sings
Her baby hovls with all It's might
How strangely Fate arranges things.
