In their determinations of the effect of extreme cold on the tenacity and ductility of Iron 'and it's alloys. Sir James Dewar and Mir. R. A. Hadfield have tested about 500 specimens. in- cludlng practically pure iron. various steels, and alloys, with silicon. alunni- mum, tungsten, chromium, copper, nickel and manganese. After cooling in liquid air. pure iron was very brit tie though much harder. The effect on mild steel was much the same, but other alloys had their tenacity in- creased, and nickel alloy especially was not only toughened. but had it's duo
 tility increased It wf.s concluded that while carbon improves Iron for practl- cal purposes, nickel is the greatest safeguard against weakening. One of the anomalies occasionally appearing In alloys, even at ordinary. tsmper4- lures. was noted in the case of iron
 nickel and manganese-in which the manganese, If present alone, would make the alloy brittle at all times. while the ripple alloy is so very tough and ductile that 1t seems to reverse all the known laws Of iron alloys.

 oh, mothers. so weary. discouraged, Worn out with the cares of the day, You often grow cross and impatient, Complain of the noise and the play, For the day brings so many vexations, So many things going auiiss, But mothers whatever may vex you, Send the children to bed with a kiss! The dear little feet wander often Perhaps from the pathway of right; The dear little hands find new mis- chief
 To try you from morning till night; But think of the desolate mothers Who'd give all the world for your bliss, And, as thanks for your infinite bless Send the children to bed with a kiss! For some day their noise will not vex The silence will hurt you far more. You will long for the sweet children voices,
 For a sweet. childish face at the door. And to press child's face to your bos- om
 You'd give all the world for just this
 For the comfort twill bring you in sorrow
 Send the children to bed with kiss.

in the mater of inexpensive muffs and
 stoles. There are plenty of prettily
 made up skins this year that baffle the student of natural history. Thank
 goodness, pedigree is not an impor- tant thing with a huff, at 1t is with 8 dog. The name Japanese Is taken in vain in the fur department this year, and an inferior class of goods masquerades un- der this designation. Thus we have , Japanese sable. an initiation of the i Russian article, and Japanese fox, which methinks is just plain Kitty. ! But it's kitty dyed and fixed up in l great style, so what's the odds? And,
 really. when you have these strange | hybrids on they look just as well as the expensive sets.
 Just remember that in buying furs | 1t is better to get set o inexpensive I furs prettily made than an expensive stole and cheap huff, as so many do, or. worse still, an expensive stole and no huff, which looks anything but luxurious on 8 cold day. Furs are so much cheaper than they | used to be! A good Hudson bay sable | huff can be purchased for $55, and a mink huff fo~ much less. Altogether quite a pretty set may be obtained for
 as low as $50 in mink. ohinchilla or other furs.
 Narrow Minded Danes. What a mistake the narrow minded woman makes-the woman who has i rules in her he cuse and who bristles | with ideas on what Is proper, or to be
 more exact, what Is not proper. There are lots of women like that, and they honestly believe they are keeping the human race from going utterly to the bowwows. As a matter of fact, they are not making an impression on it | bigger than the scratch of a pin. One reason is that the women who make the donts in this world are usually those who are incapable of affirmative | actions--I mean of doing things that count. You see, they feel they must | make themselves heard. They can't | just sit around and be of no impor- | tance, so they criticise >and blame the l active ones. It is so easy to criticisel MT. Hen Peck'a Wife.
 We all know the woman who won't | let her husband smoke in the house. I would like to put her at hard labor so | she would reach the point of fatigue l where she needed something to stimu- | late and at the same time soothe her. 1 Then perhaps she would realize how a
 man feels when he wants to smoke. l read in a magazine recently of a man whose wife forced him to go into
 the back yard for his smoke and whose daughters avoided him when he was
 ''indulging this pernicious habit" as if l he had the pest.
 1 If were that man I'd leave that wo-
 man. for she plainly was meant to live
 alone. an old maid. Yet l suppose her
 husband resigns himself. believing her ! to be merely the ordinary type of a | good woman.
 Good woman!' How that word has
 been taken in vain! How it has come
 to mean in too many instances all that | is narrow and ignorant!
 Give me the good woman who under
 stands life as it really Is and who ac- | cepts it in a hearty wholesome way. Did you ever try serving half a
 grape fruit with cherry and dash of
 wine in its hollowed out center instead
 of oysters on the half shell? It acts
 as quite an appetiser before the con | Somme.

An order, regarded In military circles in England as the most important army order issued by the British war office In thirty years, has passed almost un- noticed. although 1t was published more than a month ago. This order stipulates that henceforth enlistments tor the infantry of the British army shall be for a period of nine years with the colors and three years ip the re- serve. By some of the British military experts. who are just beginning to re- alze its importance, this order is re- garded as a confession that the three year enlistment term adopted in 1870. ito save the army is a failure, but a statement issued by the British war of- flee intimates that the new order was promulgated with the view of checking the number of entries, the strength of the infantry having reached a figure in excess of the establishment provided by parliament. As to the three-year sys- tenn The London Military Mall remarks Yet 1t must be admitted that for some years 1t worked we'll. It was a change, and English people dearly loved a break-away from the monctony. So at first recruits came in abundance, and fine reserve of men was built up--a reserve which showed its worth in ths Boer war. But the novelty wore off long ago: MT. Arnold Forster. in the House of Commons, on July If, said the policy which led us to adopt the three year term of enlistment was dictated by circumstances. That is just it. And
 :he new policy Is dictated by circum- stances, too"

A row has arisen in the Oklahoma National Guard upon the question as to whether the Ad1utant General or the colonel of the regiment was the ranking officer in the field.
 In the recent encampment in Okla homa City the Adjutant General issued orders that in effect countermanded orders given by the colonel of the regiment. An appeal was made to the Governor and the feeling grew so in- tense that several officers of the regi- ment rendered their resignations m the event the colonel was overruled.
 The Governor has not rendered his decision, but I wou.>. say that unless the Adjutant General, issued orders on command of the Commander in Chief. he had no authority and was usurpIng power
 The Governor will, doubtless. make such a ruling.

GeneraI Walked Here.

Gen. C. Irvine Walker of Charleston. S. C., is In the city. General Walker was a good Confederate soldier and oc- cupies a high position in the United Confederate Veterans. He is greatly interested at this time in the move ment for the erection of a memorial to the women of the South who did so much for the soldiers during the war from 1861 to 1865
 In conversation yesterday with a friend, General Walker remarked upon the changed condition in Montgomery between this date and the time in 1S64- G5 after Hoods defeat around Nash vile. when he landed here on a boat from Mobile. soldiers of that army hav- ing had to go from Florence to Mobile to get here.

While the infantry and cavalry of the National Guard have been equipped with all modern ordnance and q,iarser- master stores, it is fact that the ar tillery has not received ordnance or the latest and most modern pattern.
 It will be source of qualification to all in that branch of the service to learn that the outlook is most promis- ing to receive at an early day full equipment Of modern pieces. The chairman of the House Committee on Military Affairs is quoted as saying that there is a disposition on the part of the committee to facilitate the equipment-of the National Guard. The highest type of field guns and instruc- ton by regular officers are promised the artillery commands
 Joint maneuvers are not popular even with officers of the regular army. General A. E. Chaffee. the commander of the Department of the East, while before the House Committee on fMili- tary Affairs recently. presenting the inteHests of the army. was asked wha. beneht the National Guard had received from last seasons exercises, except hard work, and if the maneuvers were worth their cost to the Government! The>General said that before answering that question that he would like more knowledge of what the National Guard people thought about it, and whether they thought they were benefited. If the Guard did not realize the advant- ages of the maneuvers they were not worth while.
 It Is the universal opinion of the army officers and of everybody who has expressed an opinion on the subject that the regulars did not benefit by the association with. the National Guard. Adjutant General Vickers of Idaho in his annual report for, 1904, says that the only way to improve the personnel and enforce discipline in the National Guard is to stop enlisting boys and to have the ages the same as those for the regular army. He cites his experi- ence in the Spanish American war as Inspector General, and Is sure that only men can be relied on to follow instruc- tions and obey orders and to observe the proprieties of gentlemen while in | the ranks.
 The present organization of Idaho consists of one regiment of infantry with ten companies. with an equipment new and in good order and complete. The appropriation is only $1,000 an- nually.

 Colonel Anderson has filed his report
 with the Adjutant General, but pend ing the receipt of General Thomason's report 1t Is not made public.
 It has been learned, however, that Colonel Anderson charges that General Barry, whom he styles "the general commanding" constantly used profane and obscene language in the presence of officers and men. On one occasion 1t Is stated that an enlisted man, act ing as courier to General Barry, rode up and said to. him: General Barry

 This gun Is Of 22-cal.bre, using either | short or long cartridges. It has the United States magazine ride sights and l stock, has the same trigger pull and | shoots very accurately.

 may use 1t for firing 200. 300 and 5oo yards range without the danger incl

 month will be watched with interest | by the Ohio National Guard In gen. | eraL The use of smokeless ammunition at | gallery shoots under the direction of | Captain Winder has resulted already in
 some remarkable scores by men of the

man, who came originally from
Logan, had resided here for some
months with her seven-year-old
son.
Last April she caused some ex-
citement one night by shooting
the ceiling of her house full of
holes. Last Saturday she appear
ed at the Hotel Martin, where she
registered as Mrs. George Bra
shares of Logan, taking the name
of most estimable lady who for
merly lived in Logan. AS re-
suit Of indulgence in alcoholic bev-
erages and drugs she is a physical
wreck.
She was warranted to the in
firmary and her seven-year-old
boy sent to the children's home.
