THE PARAMOUNT QUESTION.

3 A smart little brougham, with a
solid, comfortable looking coachman
of the cold family retainer" variety
on the box drew up before the side
entrance of the Grand Central sta
ton the other morning just as a
fat woman emerged from the exit
from the train shed, says the New
York Press. There was certain
amount of commotion accompany
ing her arrival on the scene, for she
was attended by an elderly man, evil
IDENTIFY her husband, a maid and a
groom, both of the latter servants
being laden with bags, umbrellas
and a travelling jewel case. As she
made her way toward the carriage
the coachman turned his head to
look at his mistress, and there was a
broad smile on his face. ooh,
Harry" she gurgled up at him.
"I'm so glad to sec you. It's good
to see your face again." Then her
face took on a look of deep concern
and she asked anxiously, Glow ia
the canary?"

MeLeA's BEGINNING.

During the years Immediately
preceding my first and, for me, my
most memorable visit to Europe, the
late Marquis of Normandy was gov
ernor Of Victoria. At that time l
was regarded in Melbourne as very
good amateur pianist, much in re.
quest at private parties, at which I
always played, and on very rare &C.
casions also sang. At one Of these
functions, given at government
house, l gave some songs between
the pianoforte selections, and the
Marchioness of Normandy, in
thanking me, said, "Child, some day
you will give up the piano for sing
ing, and then you will become ia
NOUS" That was the simple COM
ment that set me seriously thinking
Of a career as a singer. l had al
ways felt that / would become q
professional in music-pianist, or
ganist, violinist, perhaps, but some
thing in music, at any rate; but
from that moment I knew in an ir-
resistible way that I was to be a
singer.-Century.

IGNORANT OF INITIALS.

Gone of the strangest things to
me about women" said a student of
the eternal feminine "is the way
women may be associated with one
another in church work or clubs
and not know each others initials. l
have known church workers who
have seen one another every week
for years and years who are abso-
lutely ignorant of whether Mrs.
Smith is Mrs. A. B., or G. Smith,
or whether Miss Jones' first name is
Maria or Daisy. Sometimes they
say, why, Mrs. Smith is the Mrs.
Smith whose husband is banker,
you know but they have no knowl-
edge of the bankers initials, have
run across cases where some club
members knew only the last name of
their club president, and they didn't
think it at all necessary that they
should know their initials. Men who
are together three days soon find
out one another's initials, but wom-
en- seem to think seeking such knowl-
edge savors of unfriendliness."

WANDERING LAKE IN ASIA.

There are several FLOATING"
islands in existence well known to
scientists, but the only wandering"
lake ever heard of is Lake Nor, in
the Cobb desert, in Asia, which phe-
nomenon was recently accounted for
by the fact that the Tarim river, en-
tering the lake. from the west, brings
down during the period of high
water late in summer a great guam
tity of silt, which has the effect of
driving the lake, lying on the level
floor of the desert, toward the south
east. But the summer wind, drift.
ing the surface sand and darkening
the heavens with dust, blows gen.
orally from the northeast, and it,
too, tends to drive the lake before it.
The combined effect of the urging
by the wind and the river is to force
the lake southwark.

BEST RECREATION.

To some the most restful kind of
relaxation is to turn from one form
of mental or physical activity to an
other, bringing into play new set
of faculties or muscles. The man
who has spent his working day over
law books or ledgers will take up
with delight the classics or some
branch of natural history or will en-
ter upon the study of languages or
literature. There is no doubt that
the highest form of recreation is
found in such ways, because while
they furnish rest and refreshment
they at the same time widen ones
intellectual range and promote
growth in new directions.

SAD RAvACEs OF TIME
Circus MN Tells Of Remarkable Cir
eumstance In Connection with
Accident.

''The late Gov. Higgins" said Q
New York man, "was talking sadly,
ono Memorial day, about times raw
ages among the poor old veterans Of
the civil war. All Of a.sudden he
smiled quantity. He said he was re-
minded Of q thing that happened
once in Stanton, the Michigan town
where he was in business for some
years. He wished that this thing
would apply slightly to our veterans,
but it wouldn't.
"A circus man told him the story.
Tho man visited Stanton in it's early
days, and in the midst Of his per-
Torrance a storm arose, the great
tent was blown over and 80 people
we're injured.
"'Well, go years afterward,' said
the circus man, 4 returned to STAN
ton with my show. I remembered
the accident that had attended my
former visit, and I announced that
all who had been injured by the fall
Of the tent would be admitted to the
first performance free.
"'But alas for times ravages.' the
circus man ended, of all those 80
injured, only 27O had survived"

HYGIENE IN FRENCH ARMY.

An interesting statement with re-
spect to the French army was laid
before the French Academy Of
Medicine at its last sitting. 1t was
announced by M. Delorme as a sta
tistical fact that contagious dis
eases of all kinds were three times
less frequent in the army than
among the citizen population. He
added that the French army stands
side by side with that of Germany
for the low proportion of contagious
affections of all kinds. This result
he claimed was due to the efforts
made to impart to the individual
soldier simple but practical knowl-
edge of hygiene.

To investigate Accidents.

The editor OF well-known engineer
ing publication makes the suggestion
that board Of experts be appointed
to make investigation Of all railroad
accidents and publish their findings
for the benefit of the public at large
and the technical professions. There
is always an intense interest In these
fatalities, but generally there Is very
little Information to be had and the
results of an investigation made by
proper persons clothed with authority
to get at the facts would be of great
valve. In England this is done by the
board of trade.

Courtship Which Began at Santa
Cruz More Than a Decade Ago
Ends at Hymeneal Altar.

More than ~ years ago, Mrs.
Cara DAVIDSON and Mr.. Frank c..
Elmes were engaged to be married at
Santa Cruz, California, where both
then resided. The engagement was
broken, and after that Mrs. Davidson
was married three times, and Mr..
Elmes was married once. Wednesday
their betrothal Of years ago was re-
newed and they were married by
Justice Charles II. Conley, at his Of
flee on South Main street. The cere-
mony took place shortly before 10
O'Clock, and was witnessed by only
few relatives and friends.
The bride, who has been prominent
as an actress for a number of years,
is daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. j..
NJ. Davidson. of the Boulevard. Mr..
Elmes Is prosperous dry goods mer-
lchant at Findlay. Mrs. Elmes ex-
tpects to leave the stage and make her
home in Findlay.
The events leading up to this rather
romantic marriage are unusual In
many ways. In the local court Of
common pleas about two weeks ago
the bride was divorced from her last
husband, Joseph Horsnyder, of Gin
cinnati. Mr.. Horsnyder Is an actor
and became acquainted with his for
mer wife through their connection
with the stage.
Mrs. Elmes was first married in
Celina, Ohio. to j. II. Caldwell, a
prominent citizen of that place. She
was then scarcely more than mere
girl and had not entered upon her
stage career.
II was after being divorced from
Mr. Caldwell that Mrs. Davidson
met Mr.. Elmes. Their engagement
followed after brief courtship. and
they would have been married Mt that
time had not unforeseen difficulties
larisen.
Alter the broken engagement. Mrs.
Davidson went on the stage. and
sometime afterward met Albert
Nudge. an actor, to whom she was
married. Afterward she and Mr..
Nudge were divorced, but on the fol.
lowing day married again. A second
time they were divorced, and Mrs.
Davidson was then married to Mr..
| lHorsnyder. from whom he was only
recently separated through decision
lof Judge Young.
| Mr.. Elmes is 3S years OF age and
his wife is 81.
