Our Girls Too Restless.

No longer is it considered fasci.
mating for women to go to the ex-
IRENE of vivacity in behavior. Per
haps this is due to the criticism of
an artist who recently visited these
shores and who was much dfstre7s-u
at the way in which American women
fdgeted and gesticulated "As most
of the athletic women of today have
large hands" he said, "if they en-
phasize every utterance with GEES
ture the effect is bound to be u..
pleasant. The defects are made more
conspicuous. Nervousness is often
the cause of this restless motion of
the hands. 1t is bound to bore the

Some Curious Facts.

Animals to the number of nearly
70,000,000 are killed yearly for their
fur. When a fish loses any of its
scales, by a wound or other means
they are never renewed. The largest
moth known is the giant atlas found
In China, the wings of which measure
nine inches across. The wasp has
been observed to waylay and rob
bees while the latter, laden with hon
ey, were returning to the hive Civ
ilization does not tend to the horses
longevity. In the wild state he lives
to be thirty-six or forty years old,
while the domestic horse is old at the
age of twenty-five years.

Writing CT the difference between
Canadians and Americans CORE
sbondent says: THE differences are
mostly of degree: the superb self
confidence Of the average American
woman, as she walks abroad, the IL
eensed obtrusiveness Of children, the
perpetual degeneracy Of conversation
into storytelling Characters
tics are less marked in Canada than
In the states. In fact, Canada presents
as yet a sub-American variety of civ
ilization, though in some ways rap
idly assimilating to the states. Phys
ically the Canadian seems to be a
er moving and less nervous than the
American. This is particularly apple
able to the women, whose movements
and conversation are quieter, and
who are without the hunted look in
the eyes which marks so many amer
leans.
1t may be that the colder climate
exercises some moderating influence,
but probably the chief explanation
of these differences lies in the fact
that most Canadians are country
born and bred; there are few large
cities. and even the jewellers In these
cities keep up a more constant con-
tact with country life. Nowhere in
Canadian cities does one see the pro-
fusion of luxury and waste visible IN
New York or Chicago; though most
persons seem to live in fair comfort,
there is no class of millionaires DOM
mating society and making the form
and pace for servile imitation among
the less wealthy classes.
Hunting and fishing, with their av
compartments of camping out. play a
large part in the national life, sport
not having degenerated into the mere.
ly gambling and spectatorial habits.
Altogether the Canadian lives a
healthier life. Even busy cities like
Toronto and Montreal conduct their
business life more quietly than cities
of corresponding calibre in the Unit
ed States"

KING CHARLES OF RoUMAN1A.
Success Has Crowned His Long and
Useful Reign.

IT was on May 20, 1866, that
Charles OF Hohenzollern, then about
81 years Of age, and holding COM
mission of Lieutenant In the First
Regiment OF Foot Guards at Pots
dam, set foot on Roumanian soil to
assume the throne to which he had
been elected by the Roumanian peo-
pie on the Nomination OF Napoleon
III. A younger brother of that
Prince Leopold OF Hohenzollern,
whose election candidature to the
throne OF Spain in 1870 resulted in
the war between Germany and
France, he seemed destined to spend
the remainder OF his existence in the
Prussian army, when he received
quite UNEXPECTEDLY the news that he
had been chosen by the people OF
Roumania for their ruler.
Austria. however, did not relish
the idea Of having scion of the
house Of Hohenzollern on the throne
at Bucharest, and determined to pre-
vent the Prince from reaching Rou-
mania. A close watch was kept on

Reclaiminu the Sahara.

AS a result of recent scientific in
vestigations it may be possible to
revise our ideas of the barrenness of
the Saraha desert since it has been
found by boring that there are numer-
Gus springs which rise to the surface
and make possible a system of irri-
cation. In the territory to the south
of Algeria a government irrig .tion
survey has been at work making a
series of deep test borings, some of
which are as deep as 1000 feet In
this way considerable water has beer
encountered and in certain cases al
ready twice the usual amount of wat
er has been made available for the
palm groves.-Harper' Weekly.

Being a thoughtful wife, she is nat

If you eat so much pie you will have
another attack of indigestion. I can

affection of which we sometimes read,
she smiles happily upon him and is

An odd sort Of fish catching con-

thing about two feet in height and two
feet across In its widest part, at the

wood. The upper ends of these strips
are brought closely together around a
circle Of wood at the top, while from
there they spread out uniformly wider
and wider apart like the wires ia the

under these strips, about six inches
below the top, is set a wooden hoop.

this fish catcher in catching fish much
as a boy uses his hat In catching but

comparatively sluggish and bottom
feeding fish as he can get near enough
TO for that purpose, and through an
opening in the top of the catcher he
reaches down inside Of 1t to seize the
fishes thus caught.

nothing is wasted there. Old shoes
are bought up in quantities by rag
dealers and sold to factories, where
the shoes are taken apart and sub
mitted to long processes. which turn
them into paste. from which the ma
terial is transformed into an imita-
ton leather appearing much like the
finest morocco. Upon this material
stylish designs are stamped, and wa.s
