LIVES ARE CHEAP.
Dr.. Strong in Speech Said it Cost Less
to Kill Than to Pro-
tect.

New York, March 21.-A contractor
of prominence, according to Josiah
Strong, recently told him that the kill
ing of workmen was cheaper than pro-
tecting them. The statement created
a stir last night when made by DR..
Strong, who is president Of the Amer.
lean institute of social service, at the
Municipal Art dinner.
Nine men are killed in New York
every day." he continued, in accidents
which for the most part are avoidable.

THE PARLOR.
IL Ia Rapidly Becoming nm Apartment
of the pnst,

The American parlor Is Ii thing of the
past, according to architects, says the
Cleveland Plain Dealer. No more will
there be a room reserved for state oc-
caslons. such as the receiving of form
al calls, the visit of the minister and
for weddings and for funerals.
I'VE never take the parlor into con-
sideratlon any more" said Il Cleveland
architect recently. THE parlor Is
merged into the living room. The good
old fashioned parlor, which was held
In so much reverence In the old days,
has no place in modern architecture.
1.-The demand Is for Il large living
room In n small house, together with a
dining room and kitchen. III a larger
house there is usually a large living
room, library. den dining Dol and
kitchen.
II had Il client yesterday who desired
to have Il reception room or parlor not
connected with the living room. He
decided later to have Il sort of recep-
ton room In connection with the hall
way.
hLci lhc ldliol lu'" "So"H W iN'o
ground we did not make a radical
change, but reduced the parlor to a
small reception room, Isolated from the
others, where formal calls could be re-
ceiyed. Now we make no provision
for the parlor.
''In these days the reception rooms
do not have to be closed only to be
opened on the occasion of the visit OF
the family minister or the physician"
There may be many who will regret
the passing of the old fashioned coun
try parlor, with all It's memories of Wis
ltors, courtsh!p and occasions which
left impressions which have not been
eradlcated by the strenuous age of to-
day.

At Anchor,

A chief of bureau In the navy de-
partment tells a good story of the time
when one Of the secretaries of the navy
got the notion into his head that Of
fcers should not permit their wives to
reside at the foreign stations to which
their husbands might be attached. So
an order to that effect was promulgat-
ed. Soon thereafter considerable per
plexity and no little amusement was
afforded the secretary when he recelv-
ed the following cablegram from Com
modore Fyfe, then In command of the
Asiatic squadron:
Secretary Navy, Washington:
1t becomes my painful duty to report
that my wife. Eliza Fyffe. has, In dis
obedience to my orders and In the face
of regulations OF department, taken up
her residence on the station and persist
emily refuses to leave.

Famous Baths.

Marie A~ntoinette's bath, which was
prescribed by her doctor, was a COM
pound of aromatic herbs mixed with a
handful of salt. She took 1t cold In
summer and tepid In winter.
Later Oh Nine. Tallien had brought
every morning to her house twenty
pounds Of strawberries and two pounds
of raspberries, which were mashed In
her bath of warm milk and water. An
other preparation used by the eastern
women is composed of barley, rice,
horrage, thyme and marjoram boiled
together and then thrown into the wa.
ter.
Nlnon de PEnclos took a bath every
night In which there were salt, soda
and three pounds of honey mixed witt

II LONDON COSTER.
He II the King Of the Curb In the
British Metropolis.

LondOn's outdoor man Is the coster.
He is the Ishnin"l of the gutterss A
very Jolly lshmacl, II IL true, who Is
more than content to acknowledge the
line of demarcation between himself
and the true cockney. But. neyerthe-
less, in a modified, twentieth century
way he Is still the wild man whose
hand Is against every mans and every
mans against his. He Is probably the
last remnant of the worlds old race of
wanderers-the last suggestion of the
primitive man-left TO the cities. He Is
to us town dwellcrs what the gypsy Is
to the countryside. His descent seems
to spring from the same rowing stock.
And he Is regarded, from Il safe dis
lance, with the same contempt by
those who don't know him. His habits
and his impulses still strongly of
the days when tribe warred against
tribe and every mans arm was for
himself and his clan. And, although
his pitch Is below the curb, his caravan
q barrow and his beast Of burden a
Russian pony, h donkey or himself, he
Is as free and exclusive as any other
Iusty scion Of the people who live under
the skies. Ishmael he Is, and Ishmael
he chooses TO remain. And the chances
are ten to one that whoever goes a-flsh-
ing for information among the barrows
will come back with an empty creel or
a fine show Of fishermen's tales, for
your coster knows both how to keep
silence and how to use his tongue pic
t%uresquely in defense of his jealousy
guarded traditions and the internal
economies of his exlstence.-Outing.

THE ELEPHANT.
He Is Good Natured, DOcile, Obedient
and Long Suffering.

and Long Suffering.
1.-The elephant Is the best natured
beast IN all wild creation" said a cir
Gus man. Most people have an idea
that the big beast is apt to go wrong
any time and make all kinds of trouble
for everybody. Now, as a matter Of
fact, l have never but once seen q
freak of this kind. Then the result
was directly due to the lntolerable
abuse of fiat headed grooms. 1t seems
to me that If some one was putting a
steel point or hook into Il soft joint Of
yours or mine many times a day and
without any good reason for 1t we
would show temper and tear up things
too. The only difference Is the ele-
plant has more patience. He Is docile,
obedient and long suffering. When
an elephant gets a little out of sorts
there Is always some lightweight at
tendant, 1t seems, to fly off and say he
Is 'daffy.' Nlnety-nlne times out of q
hundred the poor elephant has been
badly treated, and, as he cannot talk,
he does about the only thing he can do
and trumpets his disgust or possibly
goes a step further and eases his feel
ings by taking u crack with his trunk
at something within reach. Elephants
are as kind hearted and tender as wo-
men and respond to Ntle attentions
the same way. and III the same way,
just like a woman, when they get sour
ed, 1t takes a long while to sweeten
them aRaln If II can he done aft alI"-

Protection For the Hired Man"

AZ Protection For the Hired Man"
t. Divorce is not the only field wherein
I the state laws conflict. as Is shown by
. the effort to establish by national law
some rule for lndemnifying employees
who are injured while about the busl-
h ness OF their employers. Under the
d common law 1t has been easy for EN-
VI ployers to set up the plea that an In
Jury resulted from the negligence of a

Z fore the employer In the case could not
{ be held responsible. Several states

TRIAL BY ORDEAL.
The Queer system Tint Exists In the
Sinai PENINSULA.

Sinai Peninsula.
In the Sinai peninsula trial by ordeal
is still practiced. In all criminal cases
where no witnesses are forthcoming
the judge, Eel mabashaa," tests the
suspected person by fire, by water or
by dream. In the first the Judge places
an iron pan In the fire until it is redhot
and gives 1t to the accused to touch
three times with his tongue, If marks
of burning are shown on the tongue
the accused Is pronounced guilty. The
theory apparently IS that If he Is not
guilty the moisture OF the tongue pre-
vents it from being burnt; If guilty his
tongue would dry up from fear Of be-
ing discovered.
The test by water is described as fol
lows: The 'mabaShaa' sits with the
accused and the spectators In u circle
with a copper jug full of water placed
In the center. This jug IS then made
to appear to move round the circle by
means of wltchcraft or hypnotism. If
the jug returns back to the judge the
accused Is pronounced not guilty, but
If the jug stops opposite the accused
he Is pronounced guilty"
This description Is rather wanting In
detail, and it is difficult to know how
a jug which only appears to move can
be n trustworthy index. In the test by
dream the "mabashaa' sleeps and sees
In a dream If the accused Is guilty or
not.-Chicago News.
