ALL A MATTER or INCHES.
Woman's Increased Height Makes Her
 Superior to Man.

wonder if the love ideals of wom- snhood are changing with the sex, which is certainly in transition state. At one time 1t was a rare event for woman to marry man much younger than herself; now it is com mon one. Not so very long ago, in her secret heart, the unattached maiden rather longed for master to whom she might play the part of admiring and adoring satellite; but in the pres ent year of grace she prefers to be sovereign herself, and to have prime minister who is useful and subordin- ate. Can this change be in any way due to the superior inches of the mod ern woman? A difference must in- evitably exist between the day dreams of the six-foot something and the day dreams of five-foot nothing. Only the other evening, at concert, 1 was much struck by the imposing manner in which a very tall woman, splendidly gowned. made her entrance into the room. She swept in as if the whole world belonged to her, while behind her followed an insignificant creature in black carrying her costly cloak, her fan and I don't know what else. Hon. estly, felt sorry for him, but realized that my pity was wasted. One could see he exulted In his wife's magnifi, cent appearance and his own subjec- tion.-Black and White, London.

GOOD THING TO LEAVE ALONE.
Physicians Advice to Those Who Are
 Fond of Mushrooms.

It may be possible that when all the boys are dead they will quit eating toadstools and dying in spasms there from. The edible and poisonous varie- ties of these fungi are too close to- gether in general and species for the average youngster to differentiate them. It continues, after many years, to be the same old story: Eat 1t; If it kills you 1t is toadstool; if 1t agrees with you # is a mushroom. Some years ago the department of agricul- ture at Washington issued an elab- crate and beautiful set of illustrations of mushrooms and near" mushrooms, labelling one set edible" and the other poisonous" The story leaked out that the printers got the labels mixed, and that the transposition was not discovered until the work had been sent broadcast. The officials did some tall hustling in an effort to call in the issue. A well-known physician said to me the other day: lowing to the very great difficulty in ordinary life of detecting the true from the false, my mushroom advice has usually been

WISCONSIN PEARL HUNTING.
Digging Clans for the Valuable Gem
 Twenty Years Ago.

Twenty years ago a pearl craze started in Wisconsin Every one dug clans. says Outing Magazine. Mills stopped and the water was drawn from the mill ponds that the people might get the mussels more easily. Previous to 1895, according to the government report, $3o0,00o worth of pearls were found in Wisconsin Sugar river alone yielding $1o,00o be- fore becoming exhausted. At that time river pearls were not valued as highly as "orientals,' but now they are eagerly bought by jewellers. Sev- sral years ago button factories were established at various points on the Mississippi river. Men collected clans and sold the shells to these factories to bs made into pearl buttons. Some pearls were found and another craze sosn started. Men nocked to the river from all walks of life. White men, red men. black men, brown men and women, all came, though after a month of sun, wind and river water coffee, racial characteristics were not conspicuous.
 In the summer of 1902 1t was said that 10000 men were clamming on the Mississippi and its tributaries. In the spring of the next year the rush was even greater. but this did not last long. Owing to the everlasting of the previous season. the market was al ready overlooked and the price of shells had dropped 90 low that by July comparatively few boats were at work Many enormous beds that were thought to be inexhaustible had given out, the buyers rejected so many (only about q quarter of those caught were salable, even at the lat ter part of the season) the river was almost deserted.

A Famoua Model.

A good many years ago-27. to be exact-the most famous model in the world. Antonio Corsi, wandered from town to town as strolling minstrel in England. Felix Moscheles, the fa- nous artist, happened to discover him at Dover, brought him to London and employed him as model. That was the beginning of really artistic career, and today Antonio Corsi has the distinction of being the finest model in the world, as we'll as the most famous. All classes of painters have been thankful to employ him. He posed for Sargent and Abbey for the well known paintings in the Bos- ton public library. and he has not dis dained to appear as Mephistopheles on a can of deviled ham.

California Sweet Peas.

Sweet peas have s6 divisions and some 300 subdivisions. In California, where almost all the flower seeds are grown, one farm of 500 acres is given up to the production of sweet peas alone The total production yearly is about s5o,o00 pounds. and even when this amount is augmented by the yield from smaller farms it is almost i'm possible to meet the demand. Sweet pea are the most popular flowers in America for home gardens. except the nasturtiums, and even these can not always compete with the sweet peas.

HOW TO WIN BATTLES.
Men Who Hit Are Determining Factor
 in War.

Other things being equal. good shooting is the determining factor In war. Poorly drilled and hastily or ganizel bodies of men can give good account of themselves if they know how to shoot and hit what they shoot at
 In our war for independence. says Army and Navy Life. the colonists were woodsmen. They carried and used their arms to supply their homes with food, and to protect them from the savage As marksmen they vast ly outclassed the British, and that more than anything else gave Wash ington the final victory.
 Again, in our great civil war, mark the effect of . general knowledge of firearms. In the south were sporting people; they were fond of riding and hunting, shooting at target and at game entered into their sports and pastimss. The north was conner cial.
 It's men knew nothing of firearms. savs the fintlocks of their grandfa- thers, objects of curiosity in their shops or homes, except in the far west, where the life of 177e was still being lived. The result was that in the east the southern troops were gen. orally victorious for couple of years antil the northern troops learned to shoot. What little success the north mad was in the west, where they were little better than a standoff

Perhaps they assumed that it had been pre- pared expressly for their accommoda- tion. At any rate, they seemed to ap- prove of it. This phenomenon occurred on the night which soothsayer had appointed for the submergence of Manhattan by tidal wave. But the skeptical public did not take alarm. On the contrary, the old watermen said it betokened fine sea weather.

A Paying Crop.

'. ". Burbridge. NJ. A., of Dubiin' in his opening address at the narcis- sus conference, held in 1895, said' An acre of wheat or potatoes may be put down as worth from f2o to a5o. according to locality, variety, etc. but an acre of choice daffodils or narcissuses may be worth anything from f50 to G500, or even more. The advisability of blending bulb growing with the culture of Towering roots of all kinds is increasingly ap- parent. and thus the chance of sue cess is widened In addition, flower production may be regarded as very natural aid to the enlargement or the scope of the bulb grower. There IS an astonishing demand in large cities TOT the very commonest kinds Of blos' sons, and many grower is adding substantially to his annual turnover and profits by the production Of these ordinary flowers.
