CHANGES IN CONVERSATION.
Health and Poverty Are Becoming I'm
portant Topics.

II WAS Lady Grenville who once re-
marked, when the changes of the last
fifty years were being discussed, that
in her younger days nobody in polite
society ever mentioned either her poverty
q her digestion, but that now they had
become the principal topics of converSa-
ZION" Sir Archibald West. in the same
vein, remarked that in the England of
tiftF years ago society was vigilant in
Ignoring all allusiOn to money and COM
mercc, but that he had lived to hear
everybody quoting the prices Of stocks
and shares. and had seen the youthful
scion of noble and distinguished house
produce from his pocket at dinner

cheaply they could be bought at his es-
adjustment"
Nowadays, in fact. everything IS talked
about. Young girls can he heard dis

Boston lS said to he the only city, al
present, where people of any prominence

Sational procession which is headed by

Whether 1t is good for the American
girl, or for conversation, is a moot ques-
ton On one hand, a tabooed subject
possesses an Importance out of all pro-
portion. People think about it because
they cannot talk about it. The frank
ness of the modern conversation does no
harm whatever to the soul. But on the
side of good taste and recognition of an
art IF conversation. there is much to lie
said for choice of pleasing and refined

LUNCH BASKET A PROBLEM.
Care Should Be Used Regarding Food of
Children Who Go to School,

Much has been written and said on
the subject of school childrens lunch-
cons, but still there has not been sufli-
cient agitation of the subject to provide
for the children hot midday meals. and
the luncheon basket is necessarily still in
force, says DIR. Sarah Walrath Lyons in
the New York Evening World.
\ peep into some of the baskets that
the little folks carry into the school room
would make Il careful mother cringe with
terror for the health of the owners. High
ly spiced and fruity cakes, pickles and
sweets are the major part Of the CON
tents of these baskets.
If you would have your little boy or
girl rosy and healthy be careful to pack
the luncheon basket yourself DO not
give Jack Il dime to buy something on
his way to school or Mollie permission
to select her own luncheon from the
pantry shelves Look 10 it yourself, and
carefully.
In preparing breal for luncheons it
should be buttered before being sliced
and the knife used should be very sharp
in order to cut the slices thin and
dainty. Lined with thin slices Of cold
meat or with cold hard-b0iled eggs
chopped fine and blended with a little
sweet cream, sandwiches form a great
addition to lunch. Swiss cheese makes
another tempting sandwich. ana this can

Children are ever fond Of sweets. II
seems to be a crying demand of child
hood, and good homemade cake and
cookies appeal to the child mind as moth
ing else. When these are not at hand Il
little pure candy or a few cubes of sugar
can be added to the lunch. | have yet to
see the child Indifferent to either candy,
fruit or nuts, so by no means neglect to
give them a handful of nut meats-wai
nuts, almonds, pecans and peanuts con-
tain great nourishment, and it will be
pleasant duty for the child to prepare
these the night before. To keep Il neat
little box for the meats is a good idea.
Bananas, figs, dates and grapes, in
fact all fruits that can be classed as
sweet, are rich in nourishment. The
tart, juicy fruits are usually more APP
petizing. and furnish not only phosphates
to purify the blood, but distilled drink.
Baked apples make a pleasant addition
to a lunch, and cups of baked custard,
which take but a short time to prepare,
as they require but little oven heat. Cold
rice buildings and tapioca should also be
given as a change, and whatever a fond

Timorous Theorists.

Theorists are suggesting the POSSIBLE
ity that harm may come from the irrlga-
ton of the arid region of the United
States. They maintain that our arid
territory has acted as a sort of oxygen
apparatus for the rest of the country
and that tile irrigation operations viii
shut off source of dry, aseptic air for
which no substitute can be found. They
are even disposed to believe that radical
climatic changes may take place through
out the west which will unfavorably af-
feet not only agriculture but human
health. A man ii Arizona has made the
epgrammAtic observation that If God
Almighty had wanted the desert irrigat-
ed. He would have attended to the job
Himself" As for the last proposition, it
may be retorted that it is susceptible of
reductio ad absurdum. A crazy man.
running about in stark and staring
nudity. might argue that if the Creator
had meant meE to wear breeches He
would have had them born with breeches
The argument would estOp human beings
from exertion of every kind, on the
ground that it is impiety to interfere
with the course Of nature. Lazy folks
may reason thus. but to those who are
industrious and self-helpful this sort of
logic will seem very thin. As for the
fear that retaining the desert may inn
pair the quality Of the air over the whole
continent. it is well to recognize that it
is only theory, with nothing in the
line of evidence to back it. Other theor-
lists may assert that instead of injuring
the air. irrigation will improve it. Let
the good work in the interest of Ameri-
can agricultural extension go on. Who's

Electricity in California.

Although California is on the extreme
western edge Of the United States. il is
on the highest level of modern progress.
The application of electricity to practical
purposes. for instance, has reached its
highest development in the Golden state
This mighty power of the Twentieth cen
fury has been introduced more widely in
California than in any other state Of the.
Uuiou. 1t was in Los Angeles that street
car loc0motion by electric energy first
became a commercial success. and from
thar beginning, about a dozen years ago.
the use Of electric power has broadcned
to all large manufacturing industries and
many others.
1t is estimated that the electric power
plants already in operation in California
represent Il money value of $4,000
There is now in use electrical energy
equal 10 140.00O horse power, and il is
said that expansion in progress will add
$4,000 more. And besides what is thus

THE RUE-ANEMoNE.

Under an oak tree in a woodland. where
The dreaming Spring had dropped it from
her hair,
found a flower, through which I seemed
to gaze,
Beyond the world and see what no man
Behold ana Iiye-the myths of bysone
Diana aud Endymion, and the baee
Slim beauty of the boy whom Echo
Ana Hyacinthus. whom Apollo dewed
With love and death; and Daphne, ever fair;
And that reed-slender girl whom Pan pur-
sued
stood and sazed and through it seemed to
The Dryad's feet dance by the forest tree
Her hair wild blown: the Faun, with lis
tening ear
Deep in the boscage kneeling on one knee
Watching the wandered Dread draw near,
Her wild heart beating like honey bee
Within a rose: all. all the myths Of old
All, all the bright shapes of the Age Of
Popping the wonder-worIds of Poetry.
Through it | seemed in fancy to behold.
What other flower, that, fashioned like a
star,
Draws its frail life from earth and braves
The war

That this suggests? in whom no trace Of
Or soil exists; where stainless innocence
seems
Enshrined; and where, beyond our vision
far.
That inaccessible beauty, which the heart
WOrships as truth and holiness and art,
Is symboiZed: wherein embodied are
The things that make the souls immortal

The Patient Camel.

The patient camel is tine subject of a
report to the state department by United
States Consul Masterlon, at Alden.
Arabia. 1T would be hard" said he.
for person living in any other city in
the world to conceive just what an in
dispensabe animal the camel is to the
prosperity and welfare of Alden and this
part Of Arabia. Even in the ordinary
work done by horse in any other place
or country the camel is always used
here; in fact, except for drawing a car
riage, it completely takes the place of
the horse. The camel is used for haul
ing produce in carts, for carrying freight
and other articles, and for drawing the
sprinkling and water carts. 1t makes Il
comfortable riding animal, and at
feast its flesh. of all meats, is considered
the best But it is as a means of trans
pOrtatiOn and as Il beast of burden in
passing to and from the interior of Arabia
to Alden that it becomes indispensable.
and it is altogether probable that without
it Alden would have never become the
great distribution point it now is. Articles
shipped from here to points across the
Gulf of Alden are also transported by
camels into the interior of the African
continent
The amount of the burden varies az
cording to the distance to be carried aud
to the size of the animal In carrying
goods to and from the Wharves to the
different warehouses, q few miles. a
camel will carry a load of from 600 10
800 pounds but for a long journey from
one-third to one-half of this amount is
considered a camel load"

A Remarkab bic island.

In Chesapeake bay, 125 miles south Of
baltimore, with which city communica-
ton by boat three times a week may be
depended upon during the summer sea-
son, is the strange island of Tangier. so
completely isolated from the usual lines
of travel that it hardly seems possible
that it can be Il part of the state of Vir-
gina. Imagine, if you can. an
island about five miles long and three
fourthS of a mile in width, with popu-
lation of loU0, where each house is con-
nected with Chesapeake bay by a tiny
canal; an island where the population
has built houses along one narrow street
but nine feet III width, without sidewalks,
roadbed or gutter; an island where the
women 90 about with bare feet ana
calico gowns during the week. and where
the men leave for their work at an early
hour on Monday morning and remain
away until Saturday afternoon: an is
land where Intoxicating liquors are not
sold. where billiard and pooroomS are
unknown; an island where one physician
and the minister constitute the profess
sional class; an island where profanity
is punished by fine; an island without a
jail or lookup and where religion is the
rule. and 70 be outside the church is
to be outside the pale of the best society;
an island where public cemeteries are
unknown and where the dead Of each
home are buried in the front yard. II
you can Imagine all this you may have
some faint idea of The peculiar surround

FROM IN THE WET WOODS

Here where the woods are wet
The blossoms of the dog's-tooth violet
Seem meteors In a miniature armament
VI wiidhowers, where, with rainy sound and
scent
OF breeze and blossom. soft the April went:
Their tongue-like leaves of umber-mottled
green.
So thickly seen,
Seem dropping words of gold,
In visible syllables of magic old.
Beside them near the wahoO-bush and haw
Blooms the hepatica;
Its slender flowers upon Swaying stems
Lifting pale solitary blooms
Starry. and twilight colored, like frall
gems
That star the diadems
Of sylvan spirits, piercing pale the gooms.-
Or like the wands, the torches of the fays,
That light lone, woodland ways
With slim, uncertain rays:
CEhe faery people. whom no eye may see,
Busy, legend SAYS,
With budding bOugh and leafng tree,
The blossoms heart o. honey and honey
sack o. the bee.
And all dim thoughts and dreams
That take the form of flowers, as 1t seems,
And haunt the banks of greenwood streams,
Showing in every line and curve.

smiling confidence or sweet reserve)
