The peril of her former lover made
Zabetta forgetful of her own danger

tore with bleeding fingers at the debris
that covered him. His heart was beat

1t was growing hotter and hotter.

fifty feet from the door when the lava
boiled against the walls and the whole
house fell in ruins.
But Caesar was saved!

KOREAN ETIQUETTE.
A Natives New Years Call Upon an
American Lady.

N"iStiSa" lazy
The native Koreans, who have be-
come familiar with foreigners and
their ways, take very readily to the
custom of calling-and eating-on New
Years day, and one American lady
had very peculiar experience with a
native official in Seoul on New Years
day She was keeping open house
and had made preparations for re-
ceiving her guests in the proper man.
ner.
Among other things she had made a
very excellent and rather large cake,
which she expected to distribute in
small slices to her callers. A party of
native gentlemen arrived. and, having
given one of them a cup of tea, she
placed this fine cake before him, with
an invitation to help himself.
She then went with the others to an
other room and was gone some time.
When she returned she saw, to her
horror, that her cake had all but dis
appeared. The native according TO
his ideas of etiquette. had done his best
not to leave any of the eatables set
before him.
The lady's vexation was banished
by feeling of pity for the poor fell
low, who was quite sick from over
| feeding. 1t is said that this call was
his first and last that day. He de-
| clared to his friends that foreigners

ed as visible sign of reunited
country. The plan is noble one, and
the object one that should appeal to
the patriotism of American citizens.
The only trouble foreseen is that the
public has had surfeit Of expositions.
1t will be a work of no small magni-
tude to get the states, especially in the
south, inoline for an adequate display.
There has been great progress, how
ever, in that section as well as in the
north, and it really would be most in
teresting and profitable to have this
progress demonstrated in way that
the public could have a clear concep-
ton of its extent and magnitude.

Teddy Bears Successor.

Quincy Herald: Coupled with the
choice of president, perhaps there is no
more stupendous issue pressing for de-
termination by the American people
than the imminent issue of what is
going to be the teddy bears successor
in the stuffed animal line. Here is
something that cannot be lodged, says
the Post-Dispatch. Here is an issue
that touches our daily lives, that af-
fects our wives and children, that en-
tiers into our very homes.
The Romans gave high Importance
to their lares and penates. Let us
choose our household gods with equal
care and gumption. Nominations are
in order.
Perish the thought of billygoat,
though that might fit either result of
the ballot. The stuffed elephant on
the one hand and the braying jackass
on the other may be rejected as too
conventional. The zebra might be a
suggestive innovation on the latter.
the hippopotamus on the former; yet
neither quite captivates the fancy.
The walrus is a nice rolypoly fellow !;
the ape is cunningly initiative and al
ways diverting. Still, something very
simple would be more likely to delight
the children, and We must take the
ladies' fads and preferences into ac-
count. Possibly some familiar pets
would fill the bill.
How would it do to define the issue
as between a taftpoodle and bryan
bunny?

why He Likes the Platform.

The New York World, commenting
on the Denver platform in a recent
number, said:
There are faults in the Denver
platform, but it shows very great
improvement over the platform of 1896
and the platform of 1900. 1t shows a
very great improvement over many of
Mr.. Bryan's speeches during the last
two years.
James Anderson of Cleveland, Ohio
having read the article in which the
above paragraph appeared, writes the
World as follows:
Il agree with you, but the best thing
about this whole Bryan platform is the
fact that William Randolph Hearst
does not support it. I shall vote for il
with pleasure, even if on that account

The National women's Trade Union
v

League
The National Women'si Trade Union
league last July held the first assem-
blage of the women of organized labor
ever gathered together in the United
States 1t met simultaneously in three
conventions, in Boston, New York, and
Chicago was largely attended, and
gave a great impulse to the Industrial
movement among women as well as
stimulus to public interest and SYM
pathy. A second and similar set of
meetings is announced to take place
shortly.
The president, Mrs. Raymond Rob-
ms, and the members of the national
executive board have issued a call for
a conference of women unionists, to
be held concurrently in Boston, New
York, and Chicago. on Friday, Satur-
day and Sunday, Sept. 20, 26, and II,
to discuss the question of prime i'm
portance to women in all gainful occu-
pations: How May Women's Unions
Best be Strengthened"
The Chicago meeting last year drew
its delegates from six states OF the
middle west = Illinois, Indiana, Michi-
gan, Ohio, Missouri, and Wisconsin.
They represented % cities and 30
trades. 1t is anticipated that even a
wider field will be covered this year,
especially as a new league, that of st.
Louis, has come into existence this
summer
