His Time For Drinkin<.

In the days of river driving on the
Kennebec river in Maine old Uncle jim

come down the river with drive of

Augusta. One morning, arriving late
and with appetite sharpened, old I'm
Gle Jim sat down with the first set of
men and ate diligently during the time
these men made meal. A new set of
men came and still Uncle Joe ate

to hurry up the protracted meal by
saying, Better drink your coffee, un-

FEMININE INFLUENCE.

Nowhere Is 1t More Felt and Less
Recognized Than In France.
There is still in every Frenchman a
great deal of the oriental way of look
ing at woman.
And the French wife knows it, but
she goes on helping her ''man," be she
duchess or midinette. She will forgive
again and again; she will let him
squander her dot and will learn how
to do with fewer frocks (the delight
of every Frenchwoman) in an ever
pitiful attempt to patch up the fortune
and happiness he has wrecked. If she
happen to be shopman's wife he
needs no bookkeeper or manager; she
will be there from morning till night,
the slave of the ledger, careful of ev-
cry centime, while he, too, often viii!
leave the heavier part of the business
in her capable hands and turn his at
tention to domino party at the near
est, cafe. If she be a peasants wife
no one on the farm will slave harder
than she. There is scarcely any labor
which she will not undertake.
In every sphere woman is too often
the man of the house. Nowhere is
feminine influence more active more
felt and less recognized than in France.
and nowhere among the civilized ma
tons is man more dependent on WON
an, more attached to her and less re-
spectful-London Mail.

Cave DweIlers.

Grottoes and caverns are used, more

course most frequent in Africa. A con-

shore of the strait of Gibraltar, and in
some of those caves are found the pol

A PRODUCT or MILK.
Gala1ith Is Sofstrong You Could Build

Gala1ith Is soSstrong You Could Build
a House With 1t.
You could build house of milk il
you liked, and it would be as strong
and lasting as though made of Aber-
deem granite says NJ. Glen Fling in
Technical World Magazine. Moreover,
all the fittings could be made Of the
same substance, and they would out
live the finest ordinary material that
was ever constructed
Billiard tables, combs, fancy boxes
and many other things are made from
galalith, which is made from milk
There. is really no limit to the arti-
cles which can be made from galalith.
It takes dyes readily, and inferior
grades are colored. The best remain
white, however, for white galalith
brings the highest price because of it's
similarity to ivory. The first grade of
galalith is made up into knife handles,
and it brings almost as high figure
as would SO much ivory.
Galalith is the best substitute for
ivory ever discovered, for it is smooth
to the touch, retains it's soft, creamy
tinting for years, is not marred by soap
and water and, unlike celluloid, is
proof against fire It does not chip or
crack like bone and can be cut into the
most delicate shapes, being tough and
not easily broken.

GRIM OLD CROMWELL.

The Protector Made Christmas
Gloomy and Serious Day.
Christmas was illegal in CromweIKs
time" said an antiquary. Those grin
old Puritans were so gloomy that they
would not have any gayety even on
Christmas day.
Cromwell said that holly and mistRe-
toe were heathenish things. He said
that they had no real Christian signif-
canoe; they were part of some pagan
festival of the Druids. Accordingly 10
made law that if you decorated your
house with mistletoe at Christmas yes
got thirty days in JAIL
'"rhe terrible old fellow forbade
Christmas celebrations-no dancing, Ne
singing, no playgoing, no feasting on
Christmas day; penalty, thirty days.
'You see, it was his idea that Christ
mas was a religious, a serious time, q
time for churchgoing and prayer and
reverence and for nothing else. The
innocent family that in Cromwell's day
sat down to turkey and plum pudding
and wound up with Christmas games
got a month all round.
"Only for time, though. The people
rebelled. Willing as the people had
been to put on the gloom of those
dreadful old Puritans, they insisted On
having little joy on Christmas day,
and Cromwell after year or two had
to give in to them. New Orleans

THE PASSION Play.
fts Orfsin. According to the Tradf-
! tion OF OberamnerEau.

fts ORIGIN. According to the Tradf-
tion Of OberammerEa..
According to local tradition, the orr
gin Of the Oberammergau Passion
play was as follows: When in the year
1893 deadly plague threatened to de-
populate the districts of Partenkirchen,
Escheloke and Kohlgrub, which are
separated from Ammerthal, or the val
ley Of the Ammer, by a rampant of
mountains, the Ammerthalers succeed
ed for time in protecting themselves
against the dread contagion, but one
day a native who had been working all
summer at Escheloke evaded the quar-
antine and entered the Ammerthal by
secret path in order to celebrate an
annual church festival with his fam
lily. Two days afterward he was a
corpse, and in less than three weeks
the plague had carried off eighty-four
of the Ammerthalers.
Despairing of all human succor, the
terrified survivors addressed them
selves to God and registered a solemn
VOW that if he heard their prayer and
removed the scourge they would rep
resent, every ten years, ''for thankful
remembrance and edifying contempla-
ton, and by the help of the Almighty,
the suferings of Jesus, the Saviour of
the world"
Not single person died of the
plague after the VOW was made, though
many were affected by it. The first
representation of the Passion play in
fulfllment of the VOW of these simple
villagers took place at Oberammergau
In the following year, and it has been
repeated every ten years without a
single omission.
