NIGHT LIGHTS FOR VEHICLES.

While many owners of horse drawn
vehicles have already complied with
the new law in regard to the carrying
of lights, many others are beginning to
look around for suitable lamps. The
law which was passed by the last Leg
islature, was approved by the
Governor on Anril- AND -haea ...a
s'r'eTas., es-on July 4. So that all per
sons who own or use vehicles that are
subject 10 its provisions may become
familiar with the act, as it is given in
full below:
"Every vehicle drawn by horse,
horses or other beasts shall carry, dur
ing the period from one hour after sun
set to one hour before sunrise, at least
one lighted lamp, showing a light vsi-
bic at least $50 feet. Said light shall
be so displayed that it may be seen
either in the direction toward which or
from which the vehicle is proceeding,
and il any person shall offend against
this provision, such person shall forfeit
and pay the sum OF 81 for the use Of
the township, to be sued for and recov-
cred by any person who shall sue for
the same"

Because woman belongs to
clubs does not mean that she must ne
elect her family and household duties.
The real truth is that the clubwoman,
because of her interests outside the
home, is educated and broadened by
contact with new associations, and SC
is made selt-reliant. The clubwoman
excels in her executive ability. Pre-.
viously woman did one or more things
well. By her new training she ha:
been made more capable, and is sys
tematic in her daily life from the home
to the club. With her work CAREFUL,
planned and details systematized, she
neglects nothing, not even the social
ed much-abused and neglected hus.

A Fashion carriek Killed.

Women of England In the eighteenth
century wore large hats. Samuel Rog-
ers once Travelled to Ranelagh in the
same coach with woman who was
compelled to sit on stool on the floor
Of the coach on account Of the incon-
venient height of her headdress. Han
nah More. who was all for simplicity
in costume, writes In her diary that
she has seen women wearing on their
heads ian acre and a half Of shrub
berry, besides slopes, grass plats. tulip
beds, clumps Of peonies, kitchen gar
dens and greenhouses" The credit Of
killing this fashion is given to Garrick.
He appeared one night on the stage
with mass Of vegetables on his head
and carrot suspended from each
side, to the shame and confusion Of
many fair members OF his audience"

Melody Of Sorrow Heard In Prison and
Palace In Russia.
There Is an air SO popular In Russia
that 1t Is even more familiar than their
national anthem to the people Of that
great, mysterious empire. / have heard
1t In all parts of the cars domlnions
from the Baltic sea to Boring strait
and from Archangel to the Caspian, In
the glittering palaces Of Petersburg
and in foul prison dens Of Siberia.
1t is a simple melody in the minor
key, suggestive, like most Slav music,
Of sorrow and unrest, and 1t is called
"Matushka Tor Mother Volga," as for
some cryptic reason every Russian, be
he noble or nihilist, is taught from
childhood to regard this great river In
the light Of a maternal relative. Yet
the river is full Of sad associations,
for convicts formerly Travelled a por-
ton of the journey to Siberia along Its
broad. sluggish stream.
can never forget the haunting
sweetness of "Matushka Volga" as
heard 1t sung ON a prison barge one
quiet summer evening by party Of
fettered politicals banished to the
great lone land Of exile, for Mother
volga" was their last link with home
and the loved ones they might never
meet again.
Fortunately the condemned are now
sent into Asia by the Transsiberian
railway, and the unhappy exile Is
spared at least one bitter parting-that
from his we'll beloved Mother Volga.

THE NEW SCHOOL LAW.
Teachers Cannot be Retired Who Have
Contracts Extending Beyond Sept. |.

According to an opinion handed
down to State Superintendent OF
Schools c. J. Baxter by Attorney Gen
eral Wilson, there is serious doubt as
to whether New Jersey school boards
will be able to get rid of teachers and
supervising principals who have been
in the employ of New Jersey school
districts at the end of the present
month, as was at first supposed.
The question came up in relation to
supervising principals who had been
working under contracts with the au-
thorities by which they had been en-
ployed.
The Attorney General, in holding
that supervising principal is an en-
ploye of a school board and not an of
6cer of the State, concludes his opin-
ion by saying:
$50 far, therefore, as the act re-
ferred to attempts to terminate the
contracts now in existence, am of
the opinion that it is void. So far,
however, as it relates to the duty OF SUI
pervising principals hereafter to be ap-
pointed or not now holding contracts
carrying over until after the act REFER
ed to goes into operation, the 0enure
of Office statute,) the act is, in my
judgment, good"
A new law will go into effect the
first OF September, providing that teach
ers and superintendent may not be re-
moved without cause.
All supervising principals OF teach
ers holding contracts with boards OF
education that do not expire until after
September cannot be removed with
out cause. That is the opinion of the
Attorney General.

THE CABBAGE CURE.
Old Ezekiel Had Long Been Wanting

This idea that people thrive best
on the food they like best is not as
modern as you seem to think" said
the old doctor to the young doctor.
when Ezekiel Holmes was something
over 100 years old he was taken sick,
and my grandfather, one Of the best
physicians in that section. was called
in to see him after the family had
done their worst to make him better.
Grandfather pronounced Mr.. Holmes
very Ill and told the family that the
end was probably near-he might not
live out the night. AS soon as this
news spread through the neighborhood
several friends called to sit up or
watch with the sufferer Among them

"a little after midnight Mr.. Holmes
awoke and said the doctor was starv-
ing him. The captain asked what he
would like to eat.
"'Corned beef and cabbage replied
the old man.
The captain found some in the pan

and gave him generous plateful,
reasoning, as he said afterward, that
so long as the old mans hours were
numbered he might as well have what
he wanted while he lasted. After eat
Ing heartily Mr.. Holmes said he felt
much better and went quietly to sleep.
The next morning, when grandfather
called he found his patient on the
road to recovery. The old man not
only got well, but kept 80 for four
or five years afterward, and he al
ways stoutly declared that his mid
night meal had cured him.

me to the door of his shop and began
to ask me questions about America.
