BABIES TO SELL.

"Dear me! What do you call
that?"
The missionary shaded her eyes
from the setting Indian sun and
peered down the road.
At first, a tent woven of straw
seemed to be walking straight to-
wards her, but soon she saw three
pairs of brown legs were beneath.
She watched with growing interest.
Straight on they came, and halted
under a spreading banyan tree on the
mission premises Then the tent be-

as if for the night.

to call on her new neighbors.

"Salaam," said the man, putting
his hands together at his forehead
and bowling almost to the ground.
"Salaam," said the little girl, shyly,
and then running towards the tent
she pulled away the straw door and
looked as if to say, won't you go

The missionary stopped and put
her head inside, and what do you
think she saw? The. dearest, lfttlest
mite of a brown baby lay on the
ground blinking its eyes in the light;
and over in the corner on a pile OF
weeds, lay the poor, sick mamma.
The little girl carried the baby out

TELEPHONE AND NERVES.

Paris authorities have discovered
that the telephone system of the city
Is largely controlled by the nervous
system of the telephone girls. The
majority of these girls live alone and
neglect their proper meals, and in
consequence subscribers suffer from
the telephone girls nerves more than
is necessary. The telephone officials,
to remedy this condition of affairs,
have organized canteens to provide
their girls with luncheon and dinner
at twelve cents and fourteen cents a
meal, consisting of roast beef and
mutton, and plenty of sweets. The
authorities have drawn the line at
caramels, which, says the official cir

their leisure hours. There are num-

WOMEN WIN A PRUSSIAN FIGHT.

WOMEN WIN A PRUsSIAN FIGHT.
After a long and at times bitter
fight the women of Prussia have
forced the Government to grant them
all the advantages of higher educa-
ton. Though women had been adj
mitted to many of the higher schools,
they still were deprived of many of
the privileges enjoyed by men, and
the Government took stubborn
stand against equality. The praise
for the victory has been showered
upon Helene Lange, who ably direct
ed the campaign of the big army Of
women. Against great odds she won
what is looked upon as one of the
most upward steps taken by women
in Europe in many years. Women
now may enter all the technical
schools In Prussia. Girls will take a
specially arranged course beginning
at the age of six years and continuing
for seven years. At the end Of that
time those preparing for higher
course will take special studies. Al
ter four years OF such work, or eleven
in all, they will be eligible for the
universities. Then for the first time
Prussia will have co-education. The
first agitation was started more than
twenty years ago, and it is only now
that the Government recognizes the
justice Of the women's plea.-New
