Form That Fits All.

Through the ingenuity of New
York man, shopkeepers and dress
makers will be able to get along here
after with one kind of dress form.
Long waists and short waists all look
alike on this body portion, which can
be adjusted to fit anything the human
form can wear. The form Is made
similar to those now in use, except
that the model can be moved up and
down on the upright rod that runs
through the centre and affixed at any
height over the line that may be
desired. In the old-style form a
short wasted waist did not fit on a
long wasted model, and vice versa.
and both for window display and
dressmaking a number of different
forms were required each for differ
ent type of figure. Either for fitting
or display this invention is expected

Woman Tougher Than Man

Although men as they run are per-
haps muscularly stronger than wo-
men, their inability to withstand the
elements and their reliance upon
clothes places them considerably be-
low the so-called weaker sex in the
matter of unclothed toughness. Wo.
men wear clothes for ornament; men
use them as protective covering. A
group OF men marooned clotheless on
an island in the temperate zone might
be expected to die off in month from
draughts and colds and rheumatism.
The health of women similarly placed
would suffer little from the enforced
exposure. The fact appears to be,
therefore, that in everything but
muscle-in vitality, ruggedness. char.
acter. disposition, brain-power, ETC.
woman is the tougher, not the weak
er, sex.--New York Globe.

BIG SUMS IN ROYALTIES.
Amounts Received by NikoIa Tesla
From His Fundamental Patents"

Amounts Received by NikoIa Tesla
| From His Fundamental Patents"
The expiring fundamental patents
of Nikola Tesla have been the means
of supplying the inventor with great
deal of money in the shape of royal
ties. None but the parties immedi-
ately concerned know just how much
this amounted to, but it is said to be
a very large amount. The expiration
of the patents will be the means OF
cheapening the price of motors some
little, but this business will suffer no
radical changes by reason Of the ter
mination of the period of protection.
1t is stated by competent authori.
ties that the bulk of this money re-
ceived has been spent in the wireless
experiments which Tesla has been
carrying on for some time. The tower
at Wardencliffe, L. l., which was a
very expensive construction, was built
with the aid of these funds as we'll as
money supplied by j. Pierpont Nor
gan.

trical examiner at the Patent Office.
looks for no great stir on account OF
the expiration of the patents. There
may be some little excitement" he
said, "but it will not be an earth
quake by any means. 1t will have
the effect of lowering the market
price of electric motors some, and
probably some manufacturers not now
manufacturing electric motors will
put them ON the market"
The field thrown open by the dying
out of the patents is not so large as
would appear at a first glance. While
the three fundamental principles are
absolutely necessary to the construc.
ton of an electric rotary motor, the
improvements which have been made
from time to time enter largly into
making the motor of the great COM
mercial value that it is to-day, and
the patents on the improvements still
stand good.
The Westinghouse people hold the
greater number of these subsidiary
patents, and they announce that they
will fight any infringements.

Sometimes there are ways of doing
things that are so simple that we for
get to employ them. Here is an in

and care in many households. An
easy matter it is to keep it bright and
unspotted if, after each meal, you
wash it with cold water, using a
sponge; then dry and rub briskly.

TITLE OF PRINCE FOE
DESCENDANTS or SLAVE
Emperor Francis Joseph 70 False
Counts Potocky by an Edi-t--
Ancestor Sold by Turk.

The descendants of a Greek~Turk-
ish slave girl, the Counts Potocky,
will be raised to the princely dignity
by Emperor Francis Joseph. The
first to bear the princely title will be
Count Roman Potocky, and to this
Emperor Francis Joseph will add the
qualification of the royal prerogative,
so called, which means that Prince
Potocky and his successors will be
eligible to marrying into royal
houses
Count Roman is direct descen-
dant of a Greek-Turkish slave girl,
whose extraordinary beauty, admired
by Gear Alexander /. and by the first
Napoleon, is preserved by an un-
signed portrait hanging in the royal
gallery at Berlin.
The original of the portrait was
discovered about the time of the
French Revolution by the then Rus
sian ambassador In Constantinople.
In one of the bazaars he saw a hand
some slave girl of the Greek type
She was about fifteen years old and
Hdu JUST COme 70 the luFhiSH cdpi-
tai, having been captured at Corfu
by Moslem pirates. The ambassador
bought her and sent her to ST. Pc
tersburg as a present to the Empress,
the great Catherine. Catherine had
the girl educated and later on gave
her to Count Potocky, who was in
the Austrian diplomatic service and
accredited at her court
Count Potocky sent the former
slave girl to Paris to finish her edu-
cation, and later married her.
From this slave girl, whose his
tory reads like a romance, the new
Princes Potocky are descended.

its evolution has been rapid and COM

Jack had to mind He had to turn
his stockings wrong side out, and
put on his coat and his pants and his
collar wrong side out

there he stood--a forlorn and funny
looking boy, all Innings and seams
and ravellings before the glass,
wondering what his mother meant;
but he was not quite clear in his con-
science. Then his mother, turning
him around, said, "This is what you
have been doing all day, making the
worst of everything. You have been
turning everything wrong side out.

NUTS TO CRACK.


In autumn there are nuts to crack,
OF every size and kind,
Hazelnuts and hickory,
And chestnuts you viii find.
And if around the nursery fire
You sit and crack and eat.
And joke and spin merry yarn,
lis happiness complete.
But there are other nuts to crack.
Quite different, you'll find,
From hazelnuts or hickory,
Or any other kind
Geography, arithmetic,
These nuts are hard indeed,
And spelling is another nut,
And there's to write and read.
And history and grammar, all
These nuts are good to eat;
Though hard to crack, you'll find in eacl
A kerRel sound and sweet.
Indeed, a bag Of nuts is hid
Behind each schoolroom door;
BE sure you've cracked them, every one,
Before you ask for more.
