An intrepid Woman Explorer With
South America as Her Field.
There are few men explorers who
are able to relate more varied and In
teresting tales of travel than Mrs. Har-
rict Chalmers Adams, a native Of
California, who returned to the United
States recently after a three years
journey through the uncivillzed por-
tions of Latin America. And not many
could tell Of the experiences in so un-
affected and entertaining a manner as
Mrs Adams, who is g 2 giving in
various cities illustrated lectures on
South America, Panama and the West
Indies. Her favorite subject is Peru,
and In describing the scenery and Gus
toms Of this marvellous country she
uses a series of pictures, some being
natural coiored photographs showing
the ruins from the time Of the Incas
and present day conditions.
A trip to Mexico aroused Mrs.
Adams enthusiasm for the south, and
when her husbands business required
him to make the three years expedi-
ton she insisted on accompanying him.
They went by way Of Central America
and Panama, down through Ecuador
and Peru and across the Andes to the
headwaters of the Amazon. Then by

It come back lacking all style or Shape
This is a case where an ounce OF pre-
vention is worth a pound OF cure. II IS
much easier to baste down the plaits
in a wash garment before 1t is sent to
the laundry than It is to try to lend
style 10 a misshapen thing after Il has
been pulled out of shape in washing
The little jabots should be basted while
the folds OF the plaits are still distinct.
The same rule applies to washable
cravats, which must be basted down
the middle to keep the outer covering
and the lining In proper position.
When washing a skirt the plaits
should be fastened into place and
second busting run around the whole
hem so that the edge viii be even when
ironed. These stitches are left In until
the skirt is entirely finished and ready
to wear: otherwise the precaution win
be Intellectual.
1t is a very clever idea when a chain
stitch machine is handy to use It in
stead Of hand sewing. for the work is
simpler. and the chain stitch is much
easier to pull out than the hand work
stitches. OF course. for any material
where the machine stitches wonld
show, such as stlfr linens, the basting
must be done by hand. f,-.

There is a fine art which Is much
neglected among us, and that is the art
Of living together-not so much the
art OF the wife living with her hus-
band or a husband with his wife, but
the art OF being a smooth running
wheel In the great machinery Of the
world-the art Of not squeaking or slip
ping a cog or stripping the gearing or
otherwise disturbing the harmony OF
the huge engine of human life.
Nor Is It odd that this art is neglect
ed when you come to think Of It, for
most people are ignorant of the exist
ence OF such a craft and II informed
Of II declare 1t of no Importance. But
this is not so, for the man who studies
into its necessities discovers that It
covers the whole ground Of domestic
science. The man who is clever enough
to understand that unless be makes a
good citizen he cannot expect good
government viii also be shrewd
enough to see that unless he makes a
good son he cannot expect harmony in
his fathers house.
And if these two important facts are
comprehended he will not need to be
told that to make a good husband viii
insure the happiness of one woman
and to be good father will round out
his share of the responsibility in the
balance Of the universe. He has earned
his right to live, move and have his
being together with his fellow beings,
for he has successfully learned the diff
ficult art Of living together.-From

For Insomnia.

The woman who is never tired and
cannot sleep ought TO try the German

for she is made to work-that is all
II patient has insomnia, she is set to
sweeping of the garden walks. raking
up the cut grass, at all kinds of light
outdoor tasks calculated to make her
physically tired. And she does it all
cheerfully, because it is part Of an ex-
pensive 'cure" She could do 1t all
just as well at home, of course, but she
never would. So she takes her course
Of labor because It is the thing to do,
she is told, and soon, to her great de-
light, she finds herself ready for her
healthy sleep at night and generally
quite willing to take nap in the day

Are you a glory7
Or are you a gioom7
Or possibly are you q ball Of fret
Most young women, 1t would seem to
the visitor at Yale university these
days. fall under one Of these three
classifications. GLORY" GLOON" and
"ball Of FIRE" are the very latest words
in the Yale mans up to date vocabu-
larry. Just who invented them no one
'~1ws. But their meaning is clearly
med and well understood, and their
use around New Haven is we'll nigh
universal
II you are a very attractive young
person, you're a glory.
If you are not attractive at all. II you
are rather tactless and Ill tempered
and self conscious and disagreeable,
then, most unfortunately, you are a
gloom.
If you are utterly and irresistibly fas-
cinating and pretty and clever and
sweet, you are a ball OF fire.
"a glory" the Yale chaps explain
"a glory's peach. you know. A gloom
oh. girl's a gloom when she's a sort
Of lemon. don't you know. And a
ball Of fiFe-oh say, girl who's a ball
Of fire-why, she's regular pippin."

A Frozen Dainty Without a Freezer.

A Frozen Dainty Without Freezer.
A delicious form of ice cream which
requires no freezer to make 1t is called
mousse. 1t is easy to make. and it has
the advantage over the plain cream
and ice in that 1t does not need to go
into the freezer at all, says the De
nneator. To make this boil a cupful
Of sugar and cupful Of water till they
will thread. Beat stiff the whites OF
three eggs and slowly pour the sirup
over, beating steadily. When 1t is all
in, beat till the whole is cold, then ia
vor. fold in a pint Of whipped cream
and put 1t all in a covered pail and
bury it In a pail Of ice and salt for four
hours. This. like the other ices, can be
favored with coffee or fruits. or it may
be served as it is, with fresh fruits
around the mold, or crushed macaroons
can be put In. or nuts and coloring mat
ter can be added. A pale green mousse
favored with little pistache is very
delicate and attractive. especially II
served in glasses on a hot day.

Four kinds of blood flow in my vein
And govern each in turn my brains;
! From Cleveland, Porter, Sewel, WIter
I had my blood distinct in quarters.
My parents parents names / know,
But l no further back can go.
! Compound on compound from the flood
Forms now my own ancestral blood.
But what my sires of old times were
] neither wish to know nor care.
Some might be wise, and others fools
Some might be white, and others black
No matter what in days of yore,
Since they are known and sung no
more.
The name of Cleveland I must wear,
Which some poor founding first might
bear.
Porter, I'm told, from Scotland came
A bonny bard of ancient fame
Sewell an English derivation,
Perhaps some outcast from the nation
Waters, an Irishman, I ween.
Straight round about from Aberdeen
Such is my heterogeneous blood
A motley mixture, bad and good,
Each blood asPires to rule alone,
And each in turn assends the throne
And rules till others tear him down.
Each change must twist about my
brains
And move my tongue in different
strains;
Ny mental powers are captive led
As within or wisdom rules the head.
My character no one can know,
For none | have while things are so;
] m something, nothing, wise or fool,
AS suits the blood which haps to rule.
When Cleveland reigns m thought a
wit
In making words, the funny hit,
In social glee and humorous song
| charm the fools that round me
throng;
But soon, perhaps, this blood is down,
When Porter next may wear the crown.
Now all is calm, discreet and wise,
Whate 'er / do, whate 'er advise.
But soon, alasi this happy reign
Must for some other change again.
Sewell, perhaps, may next bear rule;
/ I'm then philosOphic fool.
With Jefferson | correspond
And soar with him the stars beyond,
While every fiber of the brain
To sense profound | nicely strain,
And then arise beyond the ken
OF common sense and common men.
But who comes next2 Alas it's Waters.
Rushing fearless to headquarters
He knows no manners nor decorum.
But elbows headlong to the forum;
Uncouth and odd, abrupt and bold,
Untaught, unteachable and uncontrolI-
ed.
Devoid of wisdom, sense or wit,
Not one thing right he ever hit.
Unless by accident, not skill,
He Numbered right against his will;
Such am ] now-no TRANSPORTATION
Can sink me to a lower station.
Come, Porter, come depose this clown.
And once for all assume the crown:
If aught in Sewell S blood you find
VIII make your own viii more refined.
If found in Cleveland s blood a trait
To aid you in the affairs of state,
Select sneh parts, but spurn the rest,
Never to role ny brain or breast.

MAx1M's HOUSE AN ARSENAL

Hudson Maxim, the inventor of
smokeless powder, has his home on st.
Mark s avenue, Brooklyn, decorated in
most original style. The house fair
~ bristles with miniature cannon, pis-
tols, and guns A writer in the New
York Press, who describes this unique
decorative idea in detail, says:
There are guns to the right of you
rs you enter, guns to the left of you,
and giant cartridges lying prone upon
brackets built of size to hold them.
The andirons in this room are large
upright cartridges guarding a fire of
gas logs, whose extra and unneeded
heat is dispersed, by means of con-
frivance invented by Mr.. Maxim, in
steamless steam. The paper-weights on
the writing table in this room are com
posed Of cannon about two inches long.
The beautiful bust of Mrs. Maxim,
by Partridge, and placed in the draw
ing room, is protected by a large horse
pistol. Tt also is further protected by
> smaller gun, which lies directly upon
4he pedestal on which it stands. Still
larger gums flank the bust of Mr.. Max
i'm in bronze in. the opposite corner.
Mr.. Maxim has taken especial precau.
ton in the matter of guarding his own

cartridges, large, small, and intermedi-
ate. Though no smokeless powder is
