Learn TO Advertise.

A duck which had faithfully stuck
to business during the summer and
had laid several dozen large, finely
formed eggs, complained that's she was
not appreciated.
"See that hen over there?" said
she, "She hasn't laid as many eggs
as have, nor as big, but she has
books written about her and verses,
composedin her honor, while nobody
Is saying a word about me-" ...
"The trouble with you is," said q
wise rooster, who was standing near,
'that you don't tell people atyou
have done. You lay an egg and wad-
die off without saying a word, while
that sister OF mine never lays one
without letting everyone In the
neighborhood know II. Hyou want
to cut any Ice In this community, you
must lear nto advertise. "-Ex.

WOMAN BUILDS
HER OWN HOUSE.
She Provides a Home for Her
Husband and Children by
Her Work.
Her Work.
From the New YORK Press.

From the New YORK Press.
Montclair, \. with her own
hands Mrs. Charles Rice has built a
handsome concrete four-story home
for her invalid husband and her
three children at Claremont aud Sun
set avenues, Verona. She began the
construction OF the building last
March. Persons living In Verona
we're surprised when they saw the
woman, clad In specially designed
costume, at work with three laborers
on the foundation OF the structure.
The work went along rapidly under
her supervision, and soon the walls
we're above the surface. Mrs. Rice
mixed the concrete, built the molds
into which she concrete was poured
and did as hard work as any OF the
trio OF laborers. She worked far into
the night several times that the
work might be hastened.
One night she found the concrete
might become useless by the next
morning. 1t was 8 O'Clock when she
got the laborers together and resum
ed work until midnight. The house
is almost completed, and Mrs. Rict
and her family have taken posses
sion OF it.
"The building OF the house." sh'
said, "has been q great education
and source OF much satisfaction tt
me. Out OF my work has arisen q
least two inventions oiconcrete build
Ing which expect will be valuable
These l will develop and patent ate
l have finished the carpenter work.

GEISHA GIRLS IN HONOLULU.
They Form the Entertaining Part
Of Japanese SOciety-WOm-
ems Silence Considered a
llf.&..A
Virtue.

Among other peculir customs oil
japan still retained by the Japanese
colony In Honolulu Is that OF enter
sainment by the geishs girls. There
are about thirteen OF these girls In
Honolulu, and they are said TO earn
from 800 to $500 per month by
their graceful dancing, singing, smil'
ing and chatting. The Hawaii
Shinpo, a Japanese newspaper pub.
lished In Honolulu, tells about the
Geishas In Its English edition under
a caption OF "Why We need Geshia
Girls" as follows:
"Geisha girls are the flowers OF our
society. They are present In almost
any social functions, except those OF
the Japanese Christians. They are
skilled In music and dancing, and
act as mattresses at Japanese din
ners. Without them our parties
will look as sober as q funeral and
each guest would look like q tomb,
indeed. Geisha girls make our 30
ciety pleasant. They know the art
OF entertaining. This Is owing to
the fact that japanese as a race are
very poor conversationalists. Fol
centuries, they were taught that
silence. was a virtue and that toe
much sociability is sign OF degra
dalton OF character. Still more this
is the case with our women. The
first virtue OF womsnhood was con
sidered to be, until recent years, hel
keeping silence In the presence o
men!
"Seldom we're wives present In ga
murai's, although with the introduc
tion OF the Western customs this II
1
now changing. Men and womer
must sit In separaterooms; 30 taught
our old sages. Thus, our partie'
lack the holiness Of European society
II Japanese women would become al
chatty and half ss enchanting al
their Anne rican sisters we would hav'
no need OF Geishs girls, but 30 Ions
as they remain as they are, geisha
will have place In our society. Gel
sha girls are not necessarily immor
al. Especially is this true OF ou
Honolulu girls who are mostly mar
ried women. They are entertainer
engaged in making q living In tn
way for which they have been edu
Gated. The ordinary charge mad
by the geisha girls In Honolulu Il
$500 an hour, that Is to cay, Il
come to chat, sing dance and smile
"There are about thirteen OF then
in Honolulu and they are all Hiro
shima girls or 'gans girls as we cal
them because OF the peculiar provin
cial collovualism they use. Thei
monthly income Is said to rang
iromLS1O0 TO $780,"
