Feminine inconsistency.

A clubwOman. writing in the Phila
delphia Record. reveals Il feminine in.
consistency in the peculiar views held
by some women about the use of their
first names. She says
a couple Of years ago | had occa.
sion to send letter to Il married wo
man, and IN addressing her | wrote
Mrs Henry -' Imagine my sur.
prise when in reply | received an in.
dignant letter from her, in which she
said: i do not at all like to have my
identity submerged in that of my hus
band. | do not see why | cannot be
addressed by my own name. Because
| am married is that any reason why
l should lose my individuality? My
name is Anna The next letter |
wrote to the indignant wife you can
be sure it bore the first name of the
woman in question, but the climax
came recently, when the husband died
ana my fastidious friend was left a
widow | wrote her on club business
and, bearing in mind her first scold-
ing, took particular pains to address
her as Mrs. Anna - The answer
to this from her makes me shiver to
think about. DO you think l have so
far forgotten my beloved Henry she
said, as to be willing to abandon his
name altogether? l wish you would
address me as Mrs. Henry in the fu-
ture, please. | may be an unfortunate
widow, but l still bear my husbands

The Presidents Salary.

1t is safe to say that very few Of the
people living in this country know how
the president of the United States
draws his salary of $4,000 a year. OF
those few Who may have given the
matter thought, a large majority do
not know whether he receives bis sal
any monthly. quarterly or semiannual-
ly. As Il matter of fact, the salary due
the president is taken to the White
House by a trusted messenger from the
Office of the treasurer of the United
States on the last day of each month
and handed over to the official whose
business ii is to look after ii. The
president receives his salary in the
shape of 4 check, the $4,000 being di-
vided into eight checks of $I,1GG.G7 each
and four checks of $4,1G6.GG each
Thus one month out of every three the
president receives ! cent less on his
check than he does the other two. Some
such arrangement as this is necessary,
as, of course, $4,000 is not exactly di-
visible by twelve.

from the famed Ortega rancho, in
Ventura county, gorged himself
with honey, and went numbering
up the mountain side, leaving
tracks fourteen inches long.

For Air Generation,

Fused sodium peroxide, electrically
prepared, is the chemical agent in a
process of air regeneration that has
been recommended for such purposes
as submarine boats, etc. In contact
with water, pure oxygin is given off,
caustic soda being formed.
The soda absorbs the carbonic acid
coating the peroxide with crust OF
carbonate, which is removed by shak.
ing the chemical in a wire net OF
gauze cylinder.
1t is found that 6 3-4 ounces of the
peroxide give the seven gallons OF
oxygen required by one man per hour
and that twenty pounds should sustain
nine men in a submarine Of Zoo
cubic feet capacity for nine hours be-
fore the carbonic acid in the ain
breathed would increase to trouble

ground his teeth savagely upon recog-
nizing the slender figure of Ingram's
partner He stood irresolute for an
instant and then started forward as he
saw the object of his vengeance leave
the girl and walk toward the rear OF
the hall.
BARLEY followed at a safe distance
and quickened his pace as Ingram
passed through side door into the
corridor. 1t was a nice, long, dark
corridor, and there was no one else in
the main hall to be present at the
midnight unmasking. A heavy hand
fell upon Ingram's shoulder and he
turned quickly His first confused i'm
preston was that the roof must have
fallen upon him; his second, that he
ball by a remorseless enemy who was
bent upon kicking him through all
eternity When he came to himself he
was lying, bruised and aching in every
bone, in a lonely corner at the far end
of the corridor The air was vibrant
with the resonant clash of the Joy
bells ringing in the New Year, min
gled with the merry voices of the
mirthmakers of the Social club.
Ingram rose painfully to his feet
and staggered toward the street. AS
he passed by the entrance to the hall
he obtained glimpse of BARLEY and
May Stanhope. The formers coat was
torn and the removal Of his mask re.
vealed a black eye in the early stages
of discoloration. But the expression
of his face was that of unadulterated
triumph, and the girl beside him was
smiling radiant1y.
Ingram swore fervently as he
sneaked out into the frosty night.

A happy inspiration daxned on the
unlucky prisoner. He had q friend
who worked as police reporter on ono
of the morning papers, Dick Hartley

custodian, would be willing to vouch
for him. The sergeant thought for
moment

friend of his don't mind stretching
point to please him. "Pll hold you
here till he comes, and that's the best
l can do"
Meanwhile May Stanhope. looking
her prettiest in the costume Of a
Spanish dancer, waxed exceedingly
wroth as the hours rolled by and her
appointed cavalier failed to make his
appearance at her side. Her indigna-
ton increased to fever heat when In
gram made himself known to her and
professed himself unable to account
for Bartley's non-arrival.
"All l know is that he got off the
car a little ways from here and |
haven't seen him since" he asserted.
He said he wanted a drink
May Stanhope drew deep breath
He's starting the New Year WELL"
she remarked viciously. We'll, I'm

a few moments later she was
whiriing through the giddy mazes of
waltz with Ingram's arm around
her waist. Ingram was. immensely
pleased with himself. He knew that
it would be a difficult matter for Bart
ley to explain matters to the girl. after
the account he had given her. There
would be no getting over the fact
Of his arrest and, as he would proba-
bly, have to spend the night in a cell,
his sobriety must always remain a
matter of doubt to those who were
not aware of the circumstances that
had led him into trouble.
Promptly at II o'clock Dick Hartley
reached the station and, much to his
surprise, found the irate Samuel Bart
ley awaiting him. The latter was re-
leased at once and started for the
scene of festivities, consumed by the
fires of revenge. He arrived about ten
minutes before midnight and mingled
with the crowd. Presently he caught
