Nowadays, when woman wishes to

she puts on her finest frock and wooes
him. Foolish girl so to trouble her
self She could do it twice as easily
and many times as cheaply if she were
to top Off an old gown with any pat
tern Of apron. Every kind is an arrow
in her Quiver. At least the Cleveland
Leader says so. When she wears one
OF the kitchen brand that runs from
collar to hem Of skirt, bares her white
arms and mixes up a batch of flap
jacks, she fascinates man with her
domesticity. When she dons the par
Ior or gold thimble pattern, resplend-
ent with the lace, coquettish Of pock-
st and SO trim and provocative about
The waist that a man has to grind his
teeth and grip hard at the arms OF his
chair, he is perfectly willing to abase
his head and let her put her Cuban
heels ON his neck.

IKE sY RELIaIous MANIA.
Entire Family in Small Swiss Village
Becomes Insane.

A strange case Of a family suffer
ing from religious mania is reported
from the Swiss village OF Oftrinsen.
There are eight grpwn children ID the
family. and recently they were con
verted by an itinerant preacher.
Thereupon the whole family began to
neglect their farm and domestic du-
lies. and TO spend the day and night
In prayer. The cattle were neglected
and would have been starved had
they not been fed by the neignbors.
One girl named Bertha declared that
she was the bride Of Christ, and al
ways went about clad in a garment OF
white. Strange rites, too. were prac.
ticed. Once at midnight the whole
family. dressed in white clothes, as
sembled around wood pile altar in
field and burned a white calf, mean
while dancing around the burning pile.
This was called ''immolation. Then
Bertha expressed a wish to be i'm
and It appears that an at
Tempt was made to cruelty her. The
police, however, got to know Of this
md arrived in time to prevent fur
her mischief. Bertha was found i'll
n bed with nail wounds in her hands.
She and two sisters and brother
we're promptly removed to the lunatIc
lsylnm at koenigsfelden.

A fullgrown Walrus viii weigh as
much as 1000 pounds: a mountainous
mass OF muscle and blubber, says the
st. Nicholas. He Is armed with tusks
Of ivory. sometimes two feet in length,
and when from his upreared bulk
these formidable weapons are plunged
downward upon an enemy. they are
as resistless as the drop of a guillo-
tine. Such thick layer OF blubber
lies under the skin that he is practic.
ally clad In an armor impervious to
teeth and claws alike. So. unless the
bear is greatly favored by luck, he
has little chance to overthrow his
antagonist.

More than half of the several hun
dred people taking the course at
Lowell institute under Harvard pro
fessors, says Boston paper. are wom-
en-. and these courses require an at
tendance three times a week. And
wherever one goes the same thing il
true, only as general thing the pro
portion OF women i'll such classes
would be greater than one-half. This
does not look as though women were
wasting all their energies in the de
bauch OF whist" Many women play
whist and bridge but it is generally
those who want mental occupation
that entails little solid brain work.
The majority of bridge players prefer
men partners, so that one sex spends
as much time as the other over cards.

Dramas Phenominal Success

The mere announcement that the peoples
favorite play Human Hearts" is coming
to our city. is a matter Of much import
to the theatregoers in our midst. No
melodrama of modern times has enjoyed
the vogue that has been accorded to W.
E. Nankeville's solid substantial success.
Human Hearts. The ereason apparent.
The play is interesting from the rise Of
the cortain on the first act until the final
curtain falls. The climaxes are strong
and excitne. and the story is one that
will appeal 10 all classes Of theatreeoers.
no matter what their stations in life may
be. The situations. lines, and incidental
business OF the play, are Of such a nature
that they compel the undivided attention
Of the spectators. Asrong vein ofcomedy
runs through the play, but il is 50 placed
never at any time does il conflict
with the more serious scenes. The author
has been careful 10 preserve the dramatic
un,ues. His characters arc finely drawn.
and as true TO nature as possible; in fact.
hehas taken most Of his characters from
life.
