Why TaiIors Sit crossIecued.

A tailor making dress coat sat
crosslegged on table, like a Turk.
why do tailors always work in that
uncomfortable position?" asked Wis
itOr
''Women's tailors don't. Only mems
do" was the reply. And for mems
tailors it is the most comfortable and
the most convenient position possible,
You see, the sewing on mems clothes
is very fine. The work must be held
up close to the eyes. Well, in this
position lean the work on my elevat-
ed knees, and thus it is nearer my
eyes, while at the same time my back
remains straight. Analysed. the posi-
ton is a fine one. 1t keeps the back
straight and the chest out, the knees
make a table close up to the face, and
eye strain is avoided
'"Tailors for women sit on chairs.
For one thing. the sewing on women's
clothes is less fine than on mems. For
another, the woman's tailor has to get
up every few minutes to go to the
manikin. and all that rising, if he sat
crosslegged on the floor. would tire
him too much in the days run."-New
York Press.

MARLBOROUGH House.

Marlborough House is one of the
numerous buildings of Sir Christopher
Wren. 1t was built at cost Of G44,-
000 the whole of which was betrayed
by the duke. Here the great duchess
lived till her death in 1744. waging an
incessant warfare upon the society Of
her time. Here, too. she received a
deputation of the lord mayor and sher-
ifs of London while still in bed, an
incident which was satirized by Gay:
Acquainted with the world and quite well
bred
Drusa receives her visitanrs in bed.
In the earlier years of the nineteenth
century Marlborough House was rent
ed by Leopold. king of the Belgians.
It was afterward bestowed by the
crown upon Queen Adelaide, the dow
ager Of William IV.-London Chron-

piled for admission to hospital in a

II know l must die she said simply
to the attendant physician. but do
something to keep me alive for little
while for my babies sake. In few
years they will not need me SO much"
Her one chance lay in very pain
full operation. but her heart was so
weak that the surgeon dared not adj
minister an anaesthetic. Very gently
he explained the situation-the opera
ton would make but years differ
ence at most; it seemed hardly worth
while to suffer so much for so brief a
respite: she would best go home and
wait But the little woman shook her
head
With mother love shining in her
eyes. she allowed herself to be strapped
upon the operating table and there
willingly underwent the torture Of the
knife that gave her a few months to
devote to her precious babies.-Deline-

Balloting For an Hour.

Mayor O'connor by q Majority Of
About Representative Thomas
German, Who For Years Has Been
Member of Council, Meets With
Defeat.
Peoria, ILL.,, April IA storm pass
ing over this city played havoc with
the municipal elections preventing late
voters from reaching the polls before
closing time and in one instance de,
molishing an election voting place,
stopping balloting for over one hour.
John Dickinson, an election judge,
suffered a severe scalp wound.
In East Peoria damage was done to
the extent of about $4,000, two resi-
dences being demolished and factory
smokestacks suffering.
Near Pottstown, wires were blown
down and several buildings demolish-
ed One big forest was completely up
rooted in that vicinity.
The Republicans swept the city and.
with the exception of city attorney,
elected their ticket Former mayor
r. N. Woodruff defeated Mayor O'Con-
nor by majority of about 1900.
The complexion of the new city
council is changed entirely. 1t stands
now ten to six Democratic, but under
the new regime will consist of nine Re
publicans, one Independent Republi.
can and five Democrats.
The surprise of the day occurred in
the Seventh ward where Representa-
tive Thomas German was defeated by
John Wicker for alderman by 20y
votes. German has been in the coun-
Gil for years and his defeat means a
reputation of one man holding two
elective office at the same time.
Moore, the present city attorney, ran
far ahead of his ticket and will defeat
Stubbles by over 1000.

The Savage Pike.

There are several instances on rec
ord Of bathers being attacked by pike,
and an old writer, Crull, tells Of a
giant pike inside which was found the
body of an infant. Not long ago a
good sized retriever which was swim
ming in the Thames just above Chitty' S
boathouse at Richmond was tackled
by a pike, which bit one Of it's hind
legs so badly as to sever an artery.
It was another Thames pike which at
tackled that well known naturalist and
fisherman, Mr. Cholmondeley- Pencil.
He had actually landed the fish. when
it sprang from the ground and fixed
all it's sharp teeth into his leg just
above the knee The creature hung so
fiercely to it's hold that stick had to
be used to pry its jaws apart.-Cham-
bers' Journal.

anchorage with the blowing of
whistles, the futtering of many flags
and the playing of bands.
He visited the Duke and Duchess of
Aosta at Capodimonte, and later dined
in private at the hotel, going on board
the steamer Admiral about 10 o'clock
in the evening. The Admiral. which
will convey Roosevelt to Mombasa,
was ready to sail at midnight.
A letter was received by Roosevelt
from a prominent American prelate,
who lately was in Rome. The writer
stated that he had gained the impress
sion that the Vatican would have great
pleasure in receiving the eX-president
Later Roosevelt told the American am
bassador that he should assuredly go
to the Vatican to see the pope if he
visited Rome.
Among those at luncheon with the
ex-president were his son, Kermit, Am
bassador Griscom, Consul Crownin-
shield and Mrs. Crowninshield, Lieu
tenant Commander Logan, John W.
Garrett, first secretary of the embassy,
Winthrop Chandler, Mrs. Garrett and
Miss Cartright. The party was a mer-
ry one, frequent outbursts of laughter
being heard as Roosevelt described
some of his adventures aboard ship
He seemed to be in the best Of health
and spirits.
Roosevelt was warmly welcomed at
the palace of the Duke of Aosta The
Duchess declared the ex-president was
the most interesting American she had
ever met-she might almost say, the
most interesting man.
