A FIRST NIGHT AUDIENCE.

The Crowd That Makes Up New
York's Famous @Deathwatch.n
1t would be difficult in line to say
just what the character Of the first
night audience in New York city is.
There are the critics, of course, dozen
or so Of rather subdued and timorous
looking little men who wander lone
somely about, not seeming to have the
courage to speak to anybody outside
Of their own set and who are general
ly followed by the yengeful glances of
some hurt actor.
Aside from the assortment of young
millionaires who like the theatrical at
mosphere, the main constituency Of the
first night audience is the profession"
and the allied arts, the criminal law
yers. managers, hackers of shows, etc.
In the early part Of the season there
will always be number of well known
actors and actresses who have not yet
gone to work and who are enjoying
their vacations, much as the engines
does during his two weeks rest in Au-
cyst, by spending it at the roundhouse
the thedter.
And this in general constitutes the
aggregation that has become famous,
or Infamous, in theatrical circles as the
"deathwatch." They are supposed to be
a very difficult body Of people to
please, but, as matter of personal e1-
perience, l have not seen a first night
In ten years that has not been riotous-
" and foohshly enthusiastic, no matter
how worthless the offering was.
At some Of the worst failures Of the
season l have seen the star called be-
fore the curtain a dozen times in the
evening, the author and the manager
obliged TO make speeches Of thanks for
the great reception" while the floral
tributes gave the whole thing the at
mosphere of hospital on visiting day.

A wise doctor found out coffee was

He was so busy with his practice,f
however, that his wife had to write
how he fooled his brother, clergy
man, one day at dinner. She says:
Doctor found coffee was injuring
him and decided to give Postum
trial, and we have used it now for
four years with continued benefit. In
fact, he is now free from the long
train of ills that follow coffee drink
ing.

making Postum properly, will relate
an incident. At a dinner we gave,
doctor suggested that we serve Pos
tum instead of ordinary coffee:

and remarked, as he called for his

coffee I see you haven't forgotten how
to make it.

Life History of the Eel.

The mystery which has so long
shrouded certain important facts in
the life history of the eel are being
gradually cleared up. It is now some
time since group of small-headed
transparent and ribbon-shaped fish,
named by naturalists Leptocephalia,
were identified as the young of vari-
Gus species of eel. Among these Ital-
ian naturalists recognized the one
named Leptocephaius brevirostris as
the young Of the common eel. It was
further determined that eels spawn
in the Mediterranean in comparative
ly deep and warm water. The most
recent information as to the spawn
ing place of the eel is to be found in
the journal of the Marine Biological
Association. Drs. Schmidt and Peter
sen, of the international Fisheries In
Vestigation Association, have found
quantities of "Leptocephali," or
young eels, in the depths Of the At
lantic. They conclude that eels
spawn in deep and relatively warm
water northwest and west of Scot
land.

London's Health.

During the year 1905, compared
with the decennium 1S91-1900, there
has been saving of 1854 lives, rep
resenting a gain to the community
of 757,016 years Of life capital. There
has been continued fall in the Lon
don death rate, which is now nearly
thirty per cent. lower than at the
coming into operation Of the Public
Health (London) act, 1891.
Out of a population of 4,6S4,794
the actual number Of deaths during
the year was 7O,442, or 15.1 per
1000. In 1841-50 the rate was 24.8,
and in 1891 Ill.
Both marriage and birth rates Of
London are decreasing, touching the
lowest on record in 1905.
The death rate from consumption
IS one-half that of forty years ago. A
VACANCY census taken on the night of
February II revealed 1869 men and
312 women sleeping in the streets, in
staircases or under arches. On the
same night 1850 persons slept in
common lodging houses and shelters.
It is exceptional to find children
who use tooth brush. Among 1000
children were found two who did.

cally settled by this midseason, by
arbitration which involves concession
from both sides, but with honors to
each, says the fashion editor Of Har-
per's Bazar. Those designers who
take their cues from Paris continue
to bring out charming long tight fit
ting garments; while the others,
equally loyal to the word that comes
forth from Vienna, cling to the short
wasted and loosish effects in coats
and gowns. The first are producing
new long coats that f1t closely to the

buttons only in the centre OF the up

while the lower portions Of the coat
are open. The second are develop
ing the short bolero jacket, with

rivalry is a diversity unparalleled in
many years. On only two points do
the two schools fully agree: sleeves
must be short and the corset made to
meet or to further their plans.

A Legend of Ireland.
By BOLTON HALL.

There was a King in Billigoland
in the old days that had three sons,
and fine lusty fellows they were.
Now, one day the three fell disputing
as to which of them should be king
when their fatffer was dead; and
from words they came to blows, till
they we're all black and blue.
After they had hammered the fight
out of one another, they agreed to
leave the matter to their father.
But the old man had seen before
how referees fare at the baseball
games, and he would not decide; so
they fell to fighting again till they
had hammered some sense into one
another, and then agreed that each
was to go his way for three years
and learn what business he liked, and
when they should return the father
was to try them, and the best man
was to have the Kingdom.
After three years they met again,
and the father said to the youngest,
"What have you learned?" And he
said. "I've learned to be farmer"
Lets see you raise two crops for
your brothers," said the King. So
he raised two crops with half the la
Dor and twice the produce as any
mans in Ireland.
Every good" said the King. "You
have the difference for your reward"
"And what have you learned?" he
said to the second. "I've learned to
be a carpenter" Lets see you
make two houses for your brothers,
said the King. So he made two
houses half as dear and twice as good
as any mans in ireland.
Every good" said the King. "You
have the difference for your reward;
but If your brother is as good as you
two, can't decide after ALL"
"And what have you learned" he
said to the oldest. "I've learned to
be a landlord" he said. Lets see
you make two leases for your BROTH
ers," said the King.
So he made two leases, and he
raised the rents twice as much and
made the plots half as big as any
mans in Ireland.
Faith" said the old man, "Now
I don't have to decide at all, for
you're the King already. Puck.

EaronesS Won Suttner.

The Baroness Won Suttner is an
ardent advocate OF peace among the
nations and a reduction among the
standing armies and navies. She has
issued a call for the formation of a
"peace army" in the following STIR
ring appeal:
Mobilize! In every country there
are a few hundred, even few thou
sand people, who have an interest,"
be it a material or according to their
opinion, moral interest-in promot-
ing a future war, or at least in paint
ing it on the wall. Yet there are
millions and millions Of people in the
same countries to whom such a war
would bring the deepest distress,
whose material and moral interests
lie in maintaining peace, VINO feel
not the slightest hatred toward the
neighboring peoples, who if asked
whether there should be war, without
hesitation would answer with a de-
cided no."

Free Alcohol Stimulates Agriculture.

Free Alcohol Stimulates Agriculture.
Although the United States is a
vastly larger country than Germany,
we raised a potato crop in 1905 OF
only 260,741,294 bushels, as COM
pared with the potato crop Of 1,775,-
579,O73 bushels which Germany
raised. These bushels were of sixty
pounds each.
The explanation OF so immense a
production of potatoes by Germany is
found in the fact that the free distit-
lation of alcohol for use in the arts
has been a powerful stimulus to farm
industry. Farming in some districts
of the empire has been made possible
only because of the ability Of the peo-
pie to produce cheap alcohol, and
many farms owe their very existence
to their distilleries.
Not only has Tree alcohol been a
stimulus to agriculture, but it has
been of incalculable value in many
lines of commercial development, and
has added greatly in raising Germany
to her present industrial station

Morbid Women.

When people have trouble, and real
trouble, they don't sit down and an
alyze all their emotions, and remem-
ber whether this person or that per-
son looked to the right or to the left
when they spoke to them.
Morbidness should be counted as a
wicked demon that can be driven out.
Healthy companionship, plenty OF
laughter, good long walks in the sun
shine and work will drive out the
wicked little imp-discontent-and
make you the happy, healthful, hope
full woman you ought to be.
Form a band against self-analysis,
against the inclination to consider
what every infection of the voice
and every look of the eye means, and
you will be surprised to discover how
much of good there is in the world,
and how little, comparatively speak
ing, of that which is really bad

Back to Bouquets of 1870.

Brides and bridesmaids are vexed
sorely by the bouquets the florists
are providing for weddings, for the
punches Of blooms are revival of
the nosegay carried by the bellies of
1870. They consist of wired roses
and green sprays, tied together and
bundled about with a paper coat,
edged with lace. When one beholds
an arrangement of that sort, one ap-
preciates the beauties of the up-to-
date bouquet. What could be more
graceful than the shower" Of roses,
orchids, violets or lilies of the val

The Husbands Jokes.

If YOU want to help the man you
are going to marry to be strong and
true show him that YOU believe he
has every good quality. You will
raise his own self respect and bring
him to the level you tell him he oc-
cupies.
And don't make the mistake of
thinking it is all going to be para
disc. You are going to marry a man
who will come home tried, cross and
tagged, and he won't find relief for
all his trials in a caress and few
tender words. as he did before mar
riage, when they were more of a nov
city. He would rather have his din
ner, though he may not confess it.
When he has been fed and comfort
ed, however, he will be ready for this
tenderness, and the fact that he did
not feel demonstrative when his
stomach was empty will be no sign
that he is not still in love, says Wom-
ans Life.
Believe in the man you take as
your life's partner; be gentle with
him, don't contradict him when he
is tired: let him think he is having
his own way in his own house; feed
him with what he likes and laugh at
his Jokes. Herein lies the secret of a
happy home.
