HE PAYS STORk A BONUS

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-There is
one house on Fifth avenue where
cupid is no unwelcome guest and
which Is race suicide exception.
1t Is the famous Cafe Martin, the
gayest of all New York white
light" resorts.
Jean B. Martin, the proprietor,
believes that man is not a good
employee unless he has domestic re-
sponsibility. He therefore encour-
ages marriage among his 450 en-
ployes. Each employee receives a
bonus. of 500 from Martin when he
marries. and $50 when the first
baby is born.
The system has been in vogue for
one year. Martin has paid out a
total Of $5,050.
The walters are all French. They
receive $50 a month salary and
many make in tips four times that
amount.
Struggling his shoulders, Jean
Martin said at Is a very small
thing to do for my faithful men.
They make my business what it is;
why should l not keep them when
and where | can?
II admit that I am selfish, too.
The married man Is worth two I'M
married men. He Is happy and
comfortable in his home life. He is
ambitious to do well. Most men
care little about themselves, but
they will go to great lengths to
make happy and comfortable the
wives they love and who loves them
And when the baby comes the whole
story of life becomes a reality and
man really becomes a man.

SCHOOL FUND FOR FARMERS.

One Of the declarations of the
democratic platform is in effect that
permanent school moneys lying
idle, or drawing but a minimum of
interest, should be loaned at the
| legal rate per cent on improved
farms and homes owned by citizens
Of this state. Such a course would
result in greater income to the
state and at the same time would
protect worthy men with ample Sc
curity from eXorbitant tolls on his
resources placed there by the neces-
sity of patronizing the professional
money lender. The gist Of the prop
osition is that both the state and
its integral parts would be bene-
flied.
The same general spirit is seen
in the recent visit to Spokane of
Governor Mead to arrange for the
speedy financing of the armory bond
issue. the crux Of which will ulti-
mately lie with the next legislature,
which will either legalize a loan of
state funds or refuse to do so. The
inherent idea is that the state
should help the community. The
republican governor has not ap-
peared in Spokane county for the
purpose of devising ways and means
for the financial relief Of some
farmer, or manufacturer, or prop
erty owner who needs money at a
critical point.
At the time of the democratic
state convention a Spokane county
delegate went to Olympia for the
purpose Of ascertaining the extent
to which the permanent school fund
was being used and on what terms.
State Treasurer Mills said on Au-
gust "a that the permanent school
fund had invested in bonds, war
rants, etc, to the extent of $3,602,-
934.S5 and that there was cash on
hand amounting to $S2.7l4. The
income from this nearly $4,000. 900
was about per cent.
Now, If this fund should be
loaned on good, improved property
as security per cent income
could be realized. a difference of 2
per cent-and 2 per cent on $4,000
600 is $4,000
That $4,000 would pay a good
many teachers in this state. II
would save general taxes, and at
the same time would release prop
erty owners from the charges of
higher rates on money borrowed.
The democratic party has de-
clared unequivocally in favor of
loaning this permanent school fund
OF the state to citizens of the state
who can secure it by improved
property. The democratic party
believes tina: the result will be as
sistance to the private individual
and an increase in the revenues OF
the state, without in the least
jeopardizing the security of the
fund or its interest. In these DAYS
of high finance" when huge for
tunes are being erected on the mis- \
fortunes OF the individual caught at
a critical time and squeezed by the
money power, it is refreshing to
hear this note in favor OF the man
burdened by taxation. cramped by
high interest rates and exasperated
by artificial conditions.

BEHIND HIS BACK.
A Trick That Will Amuse an Evening
Company Immensely.

Public entertainers of all kinds are
always anxious to get on good terms
with their audiences. One of the sur.
est methods of attaining this is to de-
ceive the spectators with some, appar4
emily genuine, trick, and to then, as
it We're, allow them to discover that
the feat is really bogus one.
A good example of this is afforded
by conjurer, who, putting a plate on
top of pedestal, places a billiard bali
upon it. Facing the audience, he steps
in front of the pedestal then steps
aside again, and, 10, and behold; the
billiard ball has disappeared
The performer searches" for the
ball, and soon, pretending to see it
dropping from the Clouds" he catches
1t, and holds it aloe in his right hand
for all to see.
In reality, the performers left arm
fixed in front of him-is, from elbow
downwards, a dummy one, and it is
with his real left hand that he picks
up the billiard ball, behind his back.
Soon, in the search" the ball is Sc.

Hostesses Now Devote as Much Atten-

Every host and hostess realizes the
Importance OF appropriate and har

day occupy quite as much attention
as the luncheon or dinner menu itself.
Indeed, these festive details go far in
imparting character and beauty to the

effectively employed as a center piece
for the dinner table. Bank the base
with little pots of asparagus or maid

base, to prevent the pots from show

choice. If you are clever in fashion

Pincushion Made of Old Pieces of silks
and Velvet.

A pretty, and at the same time dur
able pincushion, may be made in the
form of an umbrella. 1t will, per-
haps, meet the needs of those who,
when renewing their toilet table ac-
cessories, want to use up old pieces
of silk and velvet. Its shape makes it
particularly suitable for hanging upon
the mirror frame. To construct, OBJ
tain first of all wooden stick (such
as pen holder), upon the end of
which fix with pin glass or colored
bead, and stick this through the cen
tetr OF a circular pincushion. Then
cut out 16 triangular pieces of card
beard to form the folds of the UNI
brella, and cover each one on both
sides with silk, velvet or any conven-
lent material. Then sew them togeth-
eli as in the diagram, taking care to
keep the ends as close together as
possible, and bind them firmly round
the stick with a band of narrow rib
hon to form the ferrule. Attach the
umbrella to the cushion firmly with
glue or strong thread, and finish each
point with a fancy pin of some kind.
The alternate folds might be of con-
trasting shades; but it would look
better to keep to one color for the

Somewhere in the path of the pro-
jectile are placed two wire screens,
marked G and d, each formed of a
simple frame, across which wire
runs back and forth, forming part of
an electric battery circuit in which an
accurate timepiece, T, is also inter
posed.
AS the projectile, on being fired
from the gun, passes through the
screen c, the circuit of which it is
q part is broken and the clockwork is
started, the index originally pointing
to zero On passing through the other
screen, D, the projectile interrupts the
second circuit, with the effect of in
stantly bringing the clock mechanism
to a stop.
Knowing then, the exact distance
between the two screens, usually sew
eraf hundred feet, it follows that by di-
viding it by the number of seconds or
fractions of second marked on the
clock dial. representing the time that
has elapsed during the passage of the
projectile from screen G to screen D.,
We obtain the number of feet per Sec

Mrs Maynard flushed, paled and

her husband so critically insistent.
"Of course | have cared" she re-

ever know-or guess Across her
mind flashed visions of her early mar

lures of happiness that had seemed,
alas, too great to be enduring. Then
the first lonely nights, and long, tire
some days-the slow bitterness that
had worked its way into her life.
She wondered vaguely what had
come over him, and with a sudden
heart-thTob fancied she saw in his at

days.

and the navy men, both enlisted men
and officers, are much interested in
the work of the amateurs.
Last winter Charles Fielding, a mes
senger boy employed by the Postal
telegraph company, constructed a

messages. So interested did Com

station become in the apparatus ard

Fielding's home, with the result that
Filding was enlisted in the navy,
