Office Femininity.

Women may f1aunt their independ-
ence as much as they like" said the
observant man, but they seldom
lose their femininity. II you take a
look at those stenographers and type
writer's who nestle about in every
downtown Office, you will find them
between business hours at work on
some little thing they would have
done if they had been at home, a
piece of embroidery, a doilie, hem
stitching a handkerchief or embrOid-
ering a centerpiece or something. The
top drawer of their desk is always
full Of feminine things, needles and
thread and scissors. In fact, there are
very few of them that I have seen
who don't make their part of the Of
fee, in spite of their work, as much
like home as possible. New York

Wonderful Clocks.

Five wheels and small battery
virtually constitute the mechanism of a
wonderful clock just invented in Eng
land. II will run three years without
attention, and at the end of that time
all that is required is to attach a new
battery.
Another new English clock enables
the possessor to ascertain at a glance
the mean time, the meridian and rela-
tive position Of every part of the en-
pire, besides being able to witness the
actual speed and direction of the
earth's rotation. The motive power is
a clock in the base of the stand, and
the apparatus requires winding only
once a week.

HOW HE SAVED THE CIRCUS
Wonderful Story Put Up by Owner
Called Forth High Compliment
from Editor.

Willis Cobb the circus man told this
story:
Years ago he was travelling through
the south with a wagon tent show
and the press agent among other glow
ing accounts of what's coming" an
nounced a herd of 20 camels from the
sandy desert Of Arabia
When the show reached town, in
stead Of 20, there was but one sickly
camel Some of the country newspa-
pers paid no attention to this slight
discrepancy, but when Cobb entered
the Office of a Georgia country editor
he was mad enough to fight.
Il saw your parade, sah," said he,
"and you lied to our people. I've q
good mind to roast you. Where are
your 20 camels you made my paper
say you've got in your show?"
'TH tell you how 1t was" explained
Cobb. when we passed the swamp
on the way here it was full of alliga-
tors, and without the slightest warn
ing they leaped upon the bank and
deVouTed all but one of the camels.
We put up a brave fight. but it was
no use"
The editor gazed at Willis couple
of minutes and then said: You're
a good one. You ought to be q Geor-
gia editor. Come out to my house to
dinner to-day. I want to introduce
my wife to the biggest liar on earth.
She'll be glad to meet you"

Plausible Exclamation.

The depot of Meridian, Tex, is about
a mile from the business part of the
town. One night a sleepy, weary trav-
cling man said to the darky who was
driving him to the hotel:
"Old man. why in the name OF
heaven did they put this depot so far
from town."
The darky scratched his head in
thought, and replied:
''Waal, boss, rs fo'eed to admit dat
I hasn't give de matter s'ficient cogi.
tation. but jes jumped up fer a answer
like dis. s'pose dey done dat so as TO

WORK OF THE GENEALoGlST
His Compensation Depends on He
Being Able to Get Up Really
Handsome Family Tree.

The principal workers from the out
side In the library of congress are
those who are hunting up genealogies.
They begin early and work late at this
task, and they are paid variously, ac-
eording to the genealogies they work
out, declares the Washington Herald.
"To trace down an ordinary genealo-
gy," said one of these researchers the
other day, Il receive $40, but if 1 am
able to procure real, handsome gen.
ealogy with a duke or a baron or a
touch OF royalty in it, then / get al
most any price my conscience allows
me to charge. One American family
now don't be curious, because the
family happens to live outside of
Washington-gaVe me $500 for getting
up a lovely family tree for them,
which included the privilege of using
a coat Of arms with royal quarterings.
l believe they were called down for
using this coat of arms in England,
and so they lay it aside when hey are
in Europe; but in America it appears
in great splendor on their stationery,
carriage doors and table liner. and it
is said the women of the family have
it embroidered on their lingerie, beins
unaware of the fact that the distaff
side of the family are not entitled to
the coat of arms, but only the quarter
ings of their fathers and mothers
arms on a lozenge. Don't pity the poor
genealogist, for we are probably as
well paid for our work as any of those
who must work for a living"

True Patriotism.

Patriotism calls for honesty.
No man can be true to his cOun-
try who is not honest. We
should turn on the light, and if
we have those in our country
who are leaders who will not
stand the searchlight, then such
a one must go. We must be
large enough to hurl away even
party sentiment and demand
those who represent US to be
men who are honest. Patriot
ism demands action. No man
can be truly patriotic who re-
mains still when his country or
truth is suffering. A man can
not be true man and remain
quiet on issues when truth is at
stake, and thus try to shield
himself. Speak it out though
life be at stake. Patriotism de-
mands thought. This age de-
mands that men should not be
led blindly, but it is the duty of
every man to investigate matters
which concern his duty as a pa
triotic citizen.-EX.
