Among European States Russia has
the longest telegraph lines, total Of
1O9,375 miles. Next is France with
93,75O miles, Germany with $3.50

More than twice as many kilograms are
sent in Great Britain as in Germany,
and nearly double the number in
France.
All the stores and other places Of
business in Garden Plain, Kan, ceased
business for three days recently, and
the whole town went into the fields to
help the farmers harvest their grain.
The merchants say that the trade has
been SO good since they have reopened
that they are sure they have not lost
through closing.

William Rowe, a merchant in High

they come to town as late as S or 8

| A bald-headed resident of North
Adams has invented means Of pro-
tecting his head from the flies. The
device consists of a piece OF cardboard
through which hole is cut the size Of
his head, and over this is pasted sticky
fly paper sticky side out. An elastic
cord holds the contrivance in place.
The man says the flies do not detect
the deception until it is too late, but
shoot for the shining surfaces with as
much avidity as they do for the most

Cool.

A popular article of household furni-
ture among Americans in the Philip
pines is said to be the "refrigerating
stove" This stove Is designed to keep
people cool insead of hot. Just as we
heat our houses in the States in winter
with coal stoves, so the wanderer who
has set up housekeeping in the Philip
pines cools his house with n cold stove.
These cold stoves are made to look
something like an ordinary stove. and,
being fed with ammonia and chemicals,
give out radiations of cold waves in
stead of heat. One can imagine a fam
lily gathering around the refrigeratng
stove for GOODNESS on hot night in the
Philippines just as on cold night In
the States they had been accustomed to
gather around the parlor stove for
warmth.

Women as Inventors.

IN reply to the charge that women
are lacking in mechanical ingenuity,
writes Rene Bache in Technical World
Magazine, it is asserted that many of
the most valuable inventions patented
by men in reality represent ideas con-
ceived in the brains of their wives,
their sisters and their daughters. Eli
Whitneys famous cotton-gin is said to
have been merely the application Of
device first thought out by a woman
the widow OF General Nathaniel
Greene
The ''Coston light" which Is used
by our life saving service. and by mar
liners all over the world. for signalling
at night-it burns like red fire-is a
woman's invention. SO likewise is the
paper bag with satchel bottom. which
was the idea of Miss NJ. +. Knight
The machine by which comb founda-
ton" as it IS called. for beehives, is
made, was patented by Frances A. Dun
ham, in 1881. 1t saves bees half the
labor OF honeycomb construction by
turning out wax sheets, which. sus-
pended in the hives, serves as a basis
to build the combs upon. But the most
wonderful point about the contrivance
is that, the cells outlined in relief on
the wax being all Of worker" size,
those Of them that are utilized by the
insects for nursery purposes will pro-
duce only worker bees, thus avoiding
the propagation of idle drones.

No more patient-minded seeker for
the truth of things ever lived than Oar
win. Even those most at variance with
the opinions set forth by him admired
the man intensely because Of this de-
termlned power of investigation for the
right. The mass Of evidence that he
gathered concerning the process of nat
ural selection" by which the evolution
Of higher from lower forms of life is
brought about Is proof sufficient Of the
prodigious amount of labor that he eX-
pended on his work.
Darwin was always a most tireless
worker. Another disadvantage one
less palpable, yet to one of his mind
hardly the less deterrent, was that Of
the unbelef of even the scholars and
scientists of his own time about the
evidence he had gathered and the de-
auctions he had made therefrom.
There were some. however. who came
to his assistance. financially and sympa-
thetically. Their support meant much
to the scientist at the time when it
was proffered. but the hardest battles
had long been over when he was able to
announce his results He had accom-
plished what he had sought to accom-
plish through his own work and his alb
solute determination to win.

IS A "CHEERFUl LIAR"

Druggist Helps Customers by Pre-
tending to Have Ills.
A pale, weak girl entered downtown
drug store the other day, says the New
York Press. She seemed about to COL
lapse. The proprietor assisted her Into
a chair and prepared mild stimulant
for her. The druggists manner was SO
sympathetic that little later she con-
fided to him that she suffered with her
heart and feared she had not much
longer to live.

gist genially. "Why, have heart dis

In moderation and thus keeps his vital

do, just take care Of yourself. What's
the use Of worrying.
The druggists cheerfulness was in
fictitious, the genial interest of his talk
made depression appear foolish, and
the girl soon began to look more hope
full and even smile. After the druggist
had gayly chatted with her while she
rose and walked out of the store with
firm step.
This druggist, though he would scorn
the idea If suggested to him, IS a bene-
factor to humanity. He is believer in
the power of cheerfu!ness, and the
good that he does in his peculiar way
Is not easy to estimate.

THE RECALL.

Under the new city charter, the peo-
pie of Los Angeles have what is
known as the recall" whereby city
officers may be removed by the same
power that placed them in of1ce-the
people. The recall idea is growing in
favor in other cities. Massachusetts is
making a study Of It, and now two pro-
positions to adopt it in trust-ridden
New Jersey are before the legislature
of that state.
one of these bills adapts the Los
Angeles method to elective office
holders, the other to appointive Off
cials. Both are nearly identical with
respect to the procedure to be taken
by the people.
The bills cover city, county and
state officials. They. provide that when
20 per cent of the qualified electors Of a
city. 10 per cent Of those of a county,
or 3 per cent Of those of the state, re-
spectfvely, petition for the removal Of
an elective official, filing such petition
with the city clerk, county clerk or
secretary of state, as the case may
require. a special election shall be held
within 30 days At this special cleo
ton. which may not be held within 80
DAYS of a general election. the quail
fed voters shall determine whether the
incumbent shall be ousted from Office
or retained therein. He may himself
be a candidate or not, as he chooses,
and there may be other nominees. If
the incumbent receives the highest
number Of votes he is retained; if not
he IS ousted and the one who receives
the largest vote takes the office in his
stead.
The other bill refers to appointive
officers. and provides that when 10. 3
or per cent of the qualified voters in
a city county or state, respectively,
petition for the removal OF an office
holder, the appointing body or officer
shall appoint a commission or either
three councilmen. five freeholders or
seven members Of the legislature. as
the case may require, to hear the Pc
titioners and the Incumbent relative to
the charges against the latter IF the
charges are sustained to the satisfac-
ton Of the commission. and their re-
port is confirmed by the appointing
body or officer. the incumbent s. re-
moved; If not. he continues in oalcs.
Reports regarding the recall system
are that 1t is highly satisfactory wher-
ever it is in practice, though It is sell
dom resoted to, for it acts upon the
officials as q constant warning I1at
they must perform their duties. the
system simply provides an easy wa Of
disposing OF obnoxious officials.
