HINT FOR BOOK LENDERS.
Woman Has Ingenious Scheme Which
 Has Worked We'll.

A book borrowers album is the de vice which woman who has fine library has employed in order that she may keep track of her books and that her friends may not be delin, quent in returning them. She delight. ed in lending her books, but was far from pleased in punching her friends up for their return Now when 8 friend asks the loan of book she ac- Quiesces readily enough, but requests the borrower to write in the album his or her name and the date on which the book is borrowed. On re- turning 1t the borrower is asked to comment on the book and initial it.
 This album always is kept in a con spicuous place in the drawing room, where visitors are likely to pick it up and glance it through, learning who is not prompt in returning books. The result Is that this woman now has her books returned promptly. as the bor- rowers know they will be convicted in the album if they are delinquent They take kindly to the plan, the lender does not have to prod them for the return of the books, and she has an album which is valuable to her as con- taining the comments of her friends on the treasures in her library.

six months ago? I had meant to be the head of the house-though very gentle loving head-and here were my rights being calmly set aside. How. ever, I allowed myself to be marched off meekly next day to see our future abode.
 It was gloomy-looking house in a side street. house only fit for dying in. But the rooms were immense. and saw at once that was the attraction for my wife.
 The suite would be in it's glory in the big bedroom. though chuckled to myself how the other furniture would look. We moved in at the end of the month, washstand, wardrobe and all.
 We had meals in a dining.room whose vastness was accentuated by our small table and sideboard which rose as islands in this ocean of bare ness. Our oleographs, which had passed for oil-paintings in the old house. now gave the finishing touch of the ridiculous to the gigantic hall. And the new bedroom carpet served as a rug in the suite room.
 But May was at peace. The light had come back to her eyes. I was beginning to settle down under the new regime when the end came.
 One day got telegram at the of. flee from May. It said. Come at once" I rushed home ia a hanson with the fear clutching at my heart that something had happened to my darling.
 There was nearly a collision at the street corner with a furn!ture-van. which bore something which gIeamed and glittered in the sunlight. The flower bed by the garden path was trodden down as if there had been a fight over it. The front door was open. I rushed in. and then. as heard loud sobs upstairs. few to the bedroom. May was lying on the bed weeping and refusing to be eomforted by the maid-and the suite vas gone.
 We are back now in the old house. and there is another inmate who has replaced the suite in Mays affection. admire him very much. too. but he has a reprehensible habit of turning night into day. and insisting that some one else should keep him company.
 The reason for the disappearance of the suite was that the treasurer of the Hibernian Lottery had absconded without paying for any of the prizes. and so the furnishing store had sent down for their suite. It vas altogether Illegal. and could have brought them into serious trouble. But I did not tell May this.

She was wanting to say something and 1t came out at last. Darling. we must have new car. | pet for our room."
 "A new carpet?" I cried; what is wrong with the one we have?" "Oh, you know well enough how shabby it is. And Mrs. Wright was here to-day, and said we must really have one to match the suite. Anything else?" inquired grimly. "Oh, she knows a place where we can get set for the washstand for almost nothing"
 But, my dear girl,"I expostulated, what would be the use of 1t? We can't perform our ablutions on the stairs"
 T wish you would not try to be sarcastic" said my wife, with dignity; lit does not suit you"
 Neither does the suite," I joked feebly
 May withered me with glance.
 In two or three minutes I was routed horse and foot, and had to sur render internationally and May was smoothing down my hair by calling me "her own boy"
 A week passed. grew quite ex. pert in the various ways of getting in- to bed and learnt to a nicety the course to be steered round the ward. robe
 But May was not happy The posi-. tion of the wardrobe and the wash stand, which latter I was using to store my collars and shirts on, was daily heartbreak to her. She grew silent and listless, and I cursed the day that brought that ticket into my possession.
 One evening, at last, the burden seemed to have been lifted. After a good deal of desultory talk she an nounced carelessly that she had been out all day looking for another house, and had almost decided on one.
 I was dumbfounded. Was this de- termined, looking woman opposite me the simple, clinging girl I had married

Most Common Proper Names.


 Census returns show that the most common proper names in the world are largely the same, regardless of the country where they are found. Change in the form of pronunciation of the name does not necessarily mean different name In England and Wales the 15 most common names are these: Smith. Jones, Williams, Tay- Tor, Davies. Brown, Thomas, Evans Roberts, Johnson, Wilson, Robinson, Wright, Wood and Thompson. in the order named. In Scotland they are Smith. Mcdonald, Brown, Thompson, Robertson, Stewart, Campbell, Wilson, Anderson, Scott, Miller, Mckenzie, Reid, Ross. Mckay. In Ireland we find Murphy, Kelly, Sullivan, Walsh, Smith. O'Brien, Byrne, Connor, o'Neill, Reilly. Doyle, Mccarthy, Gal. lagher, Doherty and Kennedy. In the United States the names differ some what in the different cities, but on the whole they are very similar.

SANTA FE MILLI0NAlRES
ACCUSED OF TRICKERY
J. A. chanslor and c. A. Garfield De-
fendants-charged with Juggling
Forty Thousand Acres of
Oil Lands
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5--Forty thou
sand acres of Midway oil lands in Kern
and San Luis Obispo counties, the Santa
Fe railroad millionaires, ]. A. Chanslor
and c. A. Garfield, and the latters
methods of making $1.600,000 out Of moth
ing, are involved in a suit begun by l.
Strassburger and T. ]. Wrampelmeier, the
one a banker the other a chemist whose
action may force the wealthy oil operators
and the big railroad system to fight
criminal proceedings for violating anti
trust and interstate commerce laws.
Garfield and Chanslor, who are heavily
interested in the Associated Oil company
are charged with fraud and deceit by
Strassburger and Wramplemeier, who de-
clare that the lease they obtained on a
10 per cent royalty has netted them nearly
s2,0Oo,0OO while the owners have received
nothing.
Strassburger and Wramplemeier grew
anxious about their 10 per cent royalty.
They learned that the Santa Fe has
bought all the Chanslor- Garfield stock and
was the de facto lessee of their land.
They also were given to understand that
the Santa Fe did not intend to enter the
ranks of oil producers but would pump
only what it needed; in effect, hold the
big 4O,OG0-acre field as a private reservoir.
This evaporated the vision of big profits.
If the Santa Fe did not produce there
would be no royalties. The suit followed.
