WORSE OFF THAN THE PRODIGAL.
She Didn't Melt Under Words Of the Po-
liceman.
Free Press.

In an alley off Hastings street. just
back of tumble-dOwn rOOkery, a
member of the sanitary police squad
found man lying under a wagon,
and inquired if he was ill. The man
pointed to the old house, cautioned
the officer to speak low, and replied;
I'm the husband of the woman
you see hanging out clothes over
there.
And why are you hiding here?"
| have been on a spree for n
whole week"
All! l see. 1t is the return of
the prodigal.'
Wuss than that, sir. The prod
igal had no wife, and he didn't
steal the rent-mOney to get drunk on.
o, I'll catch it, sir, if you don't inter-
cede for me-"
But what can | do?"
You slip around to the front of
the house and say that you have
news for her. Watch her face and
see how she takes it. Then tell her
it is about me. Watch and see if
she gets white around the mouth.
Tell her you have news that | was
drowned at the ferry dock. Watch
her tears at this point. Tell her that
| called her dear name as | went down
for the last time. Watch and see if
that melts her. If l can get her all
broken down and overcome. I'll bust
in on her and get her forgiveness be-
fore she gets over wiping her eyes
and pulling her nose. Go, now, and
and I'll owe you debt of gratitude
all my life. l think Mary will melt
under your soft words"
The officer slipped around and told
the wife that her husband was hiding
in the alley, and then took a position
where he could witness what followed
He had hardly secured it when the
man came down the alley on a gallop
followed at a short distance by
the wife, armed with a hoe-handle
There were no words spoken, but the
man simply threw up clouds of dust
with his heels as he put on steam,
and as he past the officer he some

Cheap and Easy Way to Sharpen Files.

The following useful suggestion
comes from Texas man:
To know how dull files are very
easily sharpened is worth to the farm
er many a round dollar. There are
people who throw away files thinking
they are worn out, but that is in
many q case large mistake. There
is known to me but one way in which
dull files can easily be sharpened and
sometimes made like new. The dull
ness of files is produced by the finely
ground chips checking between the
teeth of files. The secret of sharpen
ing files is the following: Take one
part sulphuric acid and five parts
water. Mix both well together and
in this solution put dull files for
twenty-four hours. Before using
files after they have been sharpened
in this way wash off the files well
with soap and when dry rub in with
kerosene oil. This process will make
old dull files like new. Be cautious
with this acid in handling as it is
not to make fun with.

THE FOURTH AT SANTIAGO.
Told by Fithtint Bob" Evans, Rear Ad-
miral u. S. N.

The Fourth of July, 1898, was
really the most spectacular one | ever
witnessed" says Rear Admiral Rob
ley D. Evans in the New York Press
We were lying outside Santiago
harbor after the sinking of the Span
ish fleet on the Sd of July.
Il had been working hard on the
Sd and was up all night and had re.
tired about 10 O'Clock on the Fourth
to get a much needed rest.
About IL o'clock my orderly came
to my bed and, flashing Il bullseye
lantern in my face, said:
-" Another boat is coming out, sir.
"'That can't be, | answered.
Yes, sir. l saw her, sir, he
reiterated.
BY the time l reached the deck
the Texas and Massachusetts, on
watch, had their searchlight upon
her, and we read plainly Reina Mer-
cedes. And then began the first
battle in the history of the world by
searchlight.
The Texas opened up her twelve
inch guns, and the first shot struck
the Reina Mercedes broadside. Then
followed fusillade from the Massa-
chusetts, while the whole feet moved
up for position in the fray.
Then the shore batteries and
forts opened fire, and shells fell thick
and fast about us. The Fourth of
July celebration and noise, for ex-
citement, enthusiasm and patriotism,
that Fourth of July, 1898, stands out
as the most spectacular one in my
eXpericnce.

She Knew Where She Was.

In cities it is not always easy to
secure just the right kind of rooms
in the slums to conduct the mission
Sunday Schools. In one city the
committee had found q kind-hearted
butcher who gave over the two rooms
of his shop each Sunday for the pur-
pose, and had them nicely swept and
chairs placed about.
One Sunday afternoon, when the
primary Glars was in session, the
teacher found the little folks to be
quite unruly. There was an unusual
pulling of hair, pushing, snickering
and giggling, and longing toward
the outside sunshine. After repeat
ed endeavors to restore order, the
teacher finally said, with most solemn
face:
Children! Don't you remember
where you are?"
A little girl of five frantically waved
her hand in the air.
Yes, ma'am. In Mr.. Smither's S
sausage rOOm!'

Shoes for Either Font

Putting the shoe on the other foot
is an old saying that has come liter.
ally true. For the latest idea in foot.
wear is shoe that fits either foot
with equal comfort.
The purpose of these shoes is to
correct whatever tendency there may
be to turn the foot and run the shoes
down on one side. The shoes are
numbered l and 2. On Monday you
wear No. l on the right foot, No.
the left. Next day you reverse this
order, wearing No. 2 on the right
and the other on the left, thus keep
ing the heels evenly worn and con-
troverting One-side tendency.
These shoes for either foot are
made wholly by hand and have high
instep and low vamp. They are
designed to improve the general
health and appearance of the foot, it
being the opinion of their inventor
that the only shoe that can be made
to fit properly is the shoe that laces.

FOREIGN IMMIGRATION.
II This Keeps Up. What Will the End

1t is stated that for the fiscal year

were landed at New York, breaking
all records. The previous year 7S8.-
2S9 aliens passed through Ellis Is
land to make their home in this cOun.
try. The total number of arrivals of
immigrants at all ports in the United
States during the fiscal year 1908 was
1927, ,42l. The previous high figure
was in 1903, when the total number
was S57, ,O46. During 1905, 215. .639 i'm
migrants came from Austria-Hun-
gary. Italy dropped to second place
for the first time in six years. the to-
tai from that country having been
22l, ,479. Russia came third with
1S4, 1897. while Great Britain was
fourth with l37 ,057. The Scandinav,
ian countries contributed 60,625.
Since 1920, or in eighty-six years,
the total number of immigrants ar
irving in this country has been ap-
prOximately "a 600. 600, including this
year. figures. During 1905, the num-
ber entering through Ellis Island,
New York, was 7SS, ,2S9; Boston ad-
mitted 65, Ill; Baltimore stood third
with 62,3l4; Montreal, Canada, in
Guiding border stations, stood fourth,
having admitted 40, 4SS; Philadelphia
came next with 23,S24; San Fran
cisco admitted 6,955; Vancouver ad-
mitted 1913 and all other United
States ports admitted 36,577. The
United States are becoming more
and more attractive to the foreigners
and all would be we'll if the undesir-
able classes could be kept out.

Men Outnumher Momen,

In most of the British colonies the
men outnumber the women very con-
siderably. In Western Australia.
for example, taking the immigrant
population, there are So, males
and only $4,000 females. Queens
land has fifty-six men to every forty
four women, the Transvaal fifty-five
men to every forty-five women, and
the Orange River colony fifty-four
men to every forty-six women. These
figures refer to whites. Turning to
marriage and to all races, the uni
versatility of marriage in India is
strikingly brought out by the statis-
tics. OF every 1000 males aged 15
and upward there are unmarried:
In Ireland, 497; in Scotland, AS; in
England and Wales, 395; in Western
Australia, 33S; in India, As. The
contrast is very striking, even when
allowing for the earlier age at which
the natives of India marry. One fact
of interest is that Ireland is the cOun-
try of old men and women. Out of
every 1000 of the population of that
country there are sixty-four men and
sixty-three women IS years of age
and upward

FOURTH OF JULY AT HENLEY.
An American Girls Attempt to Celebrate
in ENGLAND

Norah Gridley in the New York
Press gives an amusing account of an
attempt she once made to celebrate
the Fourth of July in England in the
face of the advice of her friends to
do in Rome as the Romans do and
forget the Declaration of Independ-
ence. Deserted by the less Ameri-
can members of her party, she pur-
chased patriotic paraphernalia in
London and set out for Henley, where
on that day the famous international
regatta was at it's height.
Upon the arrival of the train at
Henley" she says, Il found a boat
which exactly suited my purpose and
was fortunate in securing the SER
vices of an Irish boatman of the most
Obliging nature. told him of my
plans. He was delighted and vowed
eternal loyalty.
| stepped aboard and was rowed
to a secluded spot, where VIC began
operations, Mike entering into the
spirit of the affair with hilarious ex-
citement. The river was fast filling
with gayly decorated craft; the air
was full Of music, and the races had
begun. English versus Canadian,
near neighbors to the land of the
free and the home of the brave, and
methought that among the Maple
Leaf crew or their friends | might
find at least some one who would ap-
preciate if not applaud my effort.
The sides of the boat were draped
with the national colors; from the
stern pennant of red, white and
blue Streamed. Fastened to the
PROV, Americas proud banner float
ed, royal emblems Of her greatness
and power. Old Glory rose and fell
with undulating sweeps, and Mike
grew dizzy with enthusiasm. Rising
from his seat and fourishing the oar,
looking very ancient sea god, his
voice rang out clear and strong:
"Hooray for the stars and stripes.
Old England gives me the gripes."
Wrapped in the starry emblem,
gazed with calm Indifference and
idly tloated along, the cynosure of all
eyes. Spying particularly elegant
boat, in which were several English
ladies and gentlemen. l ordered Mike
to row alongside, pulling steadily
and surely, and and to give not an
inch. The hour of my triumph was
at hand; the men grasped the side of
their boat and with fixed gaze silently
viewed the curious and unusual ap-
partition. The ladies adjusted their
glasses and looked long and scruti-
nizingly. Leaning forward on her
seat. Il stately maiden addressed her
companion and said Aw. weally,
how owiginal-a new and unique ad-
vertiscment for somebody's Soapn
With a majestic and solemn ges-
ture Mike was mutely commanded to
take me ashore" "

Harry Orchard the sclf-confcssed
human butcher, says he read the
Bible and it caused him to confess
his acts of crime and murder. If
this is true, there are, no doubt
many men in the United States. who
if they wish to wear a crown and
twang the golden harp, should pur-
chase a Bible Immediately.
The Haywood trial is in full blast
at Boise. Idaho. 1t is very dra.
matte with charges by the prosecu-
tiOn involving the whole Western
Federation of Miners. 1t may be
put down as Il certainty that the en-.
tire federation will join in secretly
aiding the defense, and the most
interesting legal battle on record
will be the result.
II. X. Sargent. of Portland, is d
modern philosopher, and has put his
religious belief into rhyme. agres
with Mr.. Sargent. Here is the verse:
"We come into this world naked and
bare,
We 90 through this world with its trou-
bic and care;
We leave this world for God knows
where,
But if we're thoroughbreds here, we'll
be thoroughbreds there"
When death for the first time
strikes down some one near and dear
to us, it is difficult to believe that
such is the case, it is a long time be-
fore we can bring ourselves to realize
it. There is singular, lingering
doubt, the faint shadow of IA hope
that after all it is not death, and
that through the subtle power of
medicine the lost one will return to
us. And even after burial, for long
time there will be moments when we
give way to the same extraordinary
hope and find ourselves indulging in
dreams of fancy in which the lost one
is again found.

Woman's Place in the World.

1t is not too much to say to-day
that women in this country can get
anything a majority of them really
want and the individual can practice
any trade or profession or art with
out let or hindrance. All this has
come about and without decreasing
the number of marriages, destroying
the home or the club; limiting mascu-
line freedom or reducing the profits
of the dressmaker and milliner.
Established things remain as they
were, yet something has happened.
Is it not mainly that we have utilized
in active work the large number of
women who heretofore, through a
failure to marry-or to succeed in
marriage-found themselves with no
congenial occupation or interest open
to them, and SO doomed to lives OF
inaction, or profitless action, and
often of dire poverty? That large
class of women who forty years ago
were denominated old maids, a class
whom everybody pitied or laughed at
and for whom there seemed no open.
