e HUNK OF A WOMAN
WAS HONORABLE.
When Her Sleepy Boy waket up
and Began 20 Take Notee She Paid
Fer His Admission.

One evening a dumpy little woman,
with solemn eyes, holding by the hand
two dumpy little boys, also with solemn
eyes, came 20 the box ofiico of thea
tire where a Western variety troupe
were playing. Handing in a quarter.
she asked meekiy for the best seat
che could get for the money. AS the
ticket man handed out the desired piece
OF cardboard, his eye fell upon the up
turned faces Of the children.
These children must have tickets
II you take them in" he said.
a distressed look came into the little
woman's eyes, and she answered:
"Oh 10, mister! never pay for
them. | wouldn't bring them along
only their father works nights and
there is no one 70 leave them with.
] never can spare more than quarter,
and ! just love 10 see a show. We
don't cheat you any, mister, for they
both go sound asleep just as soon as
they get into seat, and dent see n
single bit Of the show"
The argument, or the anxious eyes,
convinced the ticket man, and the two
children were allowed 70 go in.
Toward the end Of the second net,
one OF the ushers came out of the audi.
torlum and ha.ded q twenty-fve-cent
piece 10 the ticket man.
whats thisf" demanded he.
Don't know" drawled the usher.
"a little chunk Of n wou.0n just now
beckoned 20 me clear across the house.
and said one Of her kids had wakened
mp and was looking az the show, and
that should bring you ont this quar-.
ter."-Harper's Weekly.

POISON IN DRESS FABRICS.

The London Lancet, always on the
outlook for anything detrimental 10
health, has something TO say on the use
OF arsenic in the preparation OF many
dyes:
"We hold Git snys) that II Is just as
important that our clothing, and espe.
cially that which is worn next to the
skin, should be free from arsenical
compounds as our food. Arsenic is
readily absorbed by the skin, and
symptoms of arsenical poisoning may
easily arise from the presence of the
metal in garment Perspiration that
has the property OF disSOlving many
metallic substances which would be
otherwise untouched. We object TO the
present practice of loading dress mate
rials with mineral substances"
Wooden garments, silk goods and ho-
slery. are often contaminated" in this
way. "At least fifty per cent. of the
cheaper forms Of hosiery contain very
distinct quantities OF arsenic, the
amount rising in some cases TO as
much as half grain per pair OF stock
ings.'

VOGUE FOR HAIR ORNAMENTS.


One would think by the gorgeous dis
play Of combs and pins for women's
hair that the fad started by Cleopatra
had once more become prevalent. That
women are trying TO enhance their
locks by the aid of barbaric decorations
seems to be assured. Much money is
expended on these trivial bits OF fem-
ininity every season, although they
have never been quite so expensive be
fore. The combs are trimmed with
gold. sometimes heavily, and are set
with stones of all colors. shapes and
sizes. They are made in all manner of
ways. the designs arranged most artis-
tically.
The wealthy women have their combs
made 10 fit their heads, and they also
select their own designs. Side combs,
OF course. cannot afford 10 be so mas
sive. but the designs are made 20
match. The use OF the ordinary hair
pin has become n thing Of the past.
Now women are pinning their hair en-
tirely with large tortoise affairs. which
are neatly trimmed with bands OF gold
or silver. and since the hair has be-
come fashionable at the back OF tho
neck they show off 10 good advantage.

PROOF THAT SENTIMENT LIVES.

There was fresh proof offered at the
sailing time and place OF the Oceanic
that all the world loves a lover Just
10 get the last bit Of essence OF sweet
ness from a parting kiss a man bound
for the other side, let the gangplank be
pulled from his reach and the ship be-
gan to push from the shore. But the
ships officers and the attendants on
the deck could not permit such cruel
punishment OF Bit OF displayed affec-
ton TO go further. and orders were
given that sent the ship and the gang
plank back for the lover. And so he
went aboard, and his fiancee melted
from view among the watching crowd.

NERVOUSNESS IN CHILDREN.

Curing the nervous habits or "trieks"
Of children is one OF the most insistent
problems facing parents. The problem
is made particularly difficult because
the habits come so quietly that we find
them established before we have really
noticed them. Some habits are caused
by disordered nerves, and I'm such a
case the doctor must be consulted.
Twitching Of the face or limbs open
ing Of the mouth, blinking the eyes.
hesitation OF speech, are all indications
that something Is wrong. ana no child
must be punished for them; indeed,
mere punishment never does any good
either TO the tricks dependent on bad
health or on those OF imitation. De
fectlve sight is the cause Of many So
called tricks; n child whose vision IS
faulty screws up his eyes or scowls in
his efforts TO adapt his powers OF sight.
In such a case an opticlan or oculist
should be called in and the sight
tested. A bad habit is simply repeated
action. and it is only by persistently
stopping IL that one can hope 20 eradi-
cate it.-Woman's Life.

THE MISSING
STENOCRAPH HER
PERHAPS WHEREABOUTS MAY
BE KNOWN TO PARENTS.
Mamie Flynn's Father and Employer
Have Conference With Dis
trict Attorney Jerome.

New York, Feb 2S.-The visit of
e. o. Jacobson, the employer of Ma
mie Flynn, the pretty stenographer
who has been missing for eleven
days, and of the absent girls father
to District Attorney Jerome today
gave rise to the belief that the where,
abouts of the girl are not such mys-
terry to her parents as has been sup
posed. 1t is understood an informal
summons was issued to the two to
appear before Mr.. Jerome
Assistant District Attorney Apple
ton first examined the men when they
called at the district attorneys Of
flee. Later they were taken before
Mr.. Jerome himself and were ques-
toned for half an hour. On leaving
the Office both men declined to talk.
1t was recalled after this incident
that during the eleven days search
for the girl, members of her family
were strangely non-committal and
did not show the interest in the af-
fair that might have been expected.
In view of the developments today
this is regarded as significant.
Mr.. Jacobson and members of Miss
Flynn's family are constantly re-
ceiving letters from people who think
they have theories which can ex-
plain the disappearance of the girl
in which many suggestions are made
for prosecuting the search. Several
of these suggestions have been fol-
lowed this afternoon but they have
not resulted in giving any clew to
solving the mystery.

ALFALFA FEED FOR COWS.
Following Conclusions Deduced From
Results of Experiments,


The cost of producing milk and but
ter can be greatly reduced by replac-
ing part of the concentrates in the
daily ration of the COW with some
roughness rich in protein, such as al
falfa or cowpea hay.
1t is an advantage to feed a dry
roughness, which is intended to re.
place a part of the concentrates in
ration with silage because. of it's sue.
culent and paiatable nature. -
A ton of alfalfa or pea hay can be
produced at a cost OF from SO to S.,
whereas wheat bran costs from $40
to S25. From two to three tons of
pea hay and from three to five tons
OF alfalfa can be obtained from an
acre of land; hence there is a great
advantage in the utilization of these
roughnesses in the place of wheat
bran.
Alfalfa and pea hay cannot be sub.
stituted to the best advantage for cot
tonseed meal, as this foodstuff is so
very rich in protein that larger bulk
must be consumed than the capacity
OF the average cow will permit
The substitution of roughness rich
in protein for an expansive concen.
trate will enable the dairyman to
make milk and butter at a less cost
and will thus solve one of his most
serious problems.
In substituting alfalfa hay for
wheat bran it will be best to allow
one and half pounds of alfalfa to
each pound of wheat bran, and the
results are likely to prove more sat.
isfactory If the alfalfa is fed in a
finely chopped condition.
These experiments show why alfalfa
has been frequently used as basis
OF manufactured food stuffs and indi-
cate that the farmer who can grow it
makes a mistake in purchasing arti-
hcial foodstuffs of which 1t forms the
basis. Tennessee Experiment Sta.

New York's Death Rate.

New York, Feb. 28.--A statement
by the health commissioner today
giving comparison of the death
rates in New York and London shows
that the rate in New York, the small

The number of death in New York
last year reached 1885, while In
London there were 1904 deaths.
The population of New York is esti-
