Madame Curie at Home.

On the stroke of an insignificant
little black-robed woman stepped in, and
the vast and brilliant throng rose with a
thrill of homage and respect. Next mo-
ment roar of applause burst forth. The
timid little figure was visibly distressed
and raised a trembling hand in mute ap-
peal. Then you could have heard pin
drop. and she began to speak.
o. her lecture l will say no more But
as / heard the greatest personages from
Sweden to Vienna speak in tones of rev.
erence of this woman, l. determined to
secure her strange story. This was most
difficult on account of nladame's horror
of publicity. Not long after the birth OF
her eldest child Irene, Nine. Curie took a
tiny cottage on the Boulevard Keller
mann. near the Pare Montsouris. dis
trict SO remote that hardly any cocher
knows where it is. To the ordinary Pa
risian the Boulevard Kellermann is only
something little less remote than Timbuc-
tn!
Here 1.-The cleverest woman i'm the
world" has a little UNCOVERED house lying
back from the road. and spends her days
carrying on her own and her late hus-
bands work-not forgetting her little girls
Irene, who is nearly seven, and Eve, who
is two and a half. A Polish cousin o.
hers helps her with the children, and
there is also old DR.. Curie, her husbands

Mine Ladders.
From Mines and Minerals.

L rom Mines ana minerals
To the average reader of a mining
paper, the subject of mine ladders may
seem of very little Importance. To those.
however, who are forced to notice the
great variety and ofttimes dangerous lad
ders of the different camps of the world.
and to those who have to select a ladder
for use in a property under their super
vision. the subject will be of interest.
Too many, especially the smaller. prop
critics are equipped with ladders which
are very inconvenient If not actually .
menace to life and limb. Ladders with
missing rungs. or rungs unequally spaced.
ladders whose spacing is too long. or too
short, ladders placed vertically and with
out trap doors, where they could have
been placed in inclined lengths, ladders
so frail by construction or so rotten by
age that one holds his breath when forced
to travel upon them; these are to be met
with.
mine ladder should, above all things.
be strong, abundantly strong to stand up
under even an extraordinary load. Next
it should be the one most easily climbed.
The question of weight or bulk is of very
minor consideration. 1t must be also OF
a design which permits of easy and quick
repair.
