HER COMPARISON.

The men seated before the fire in
the hall of the country club looked
very smart in the soft greens and
grays and browns of their golf suits.
The shapely coats lent to their waists
an added suppleness and to their
chests a greater girth. The Knockers,
cut like riding breeches, gave the
prosaic legs of bank clerks and stem
ographers the dashing elegance of
the legs of cavalrymen. But the
women! I'VE women" said a
young lady journalist, "look like the
deuce beside you men! You men
have a regulation golf suit, just as
you have a regulation evening dress.
But we women disfgure the links in
an old skirt and sweater. Where
is the future Worth or Paquin who
will invent for women a golf dress at
once neat and elegant? "-Philadel-

THE CLEVER WOMAN.

With all the discussion that is now
going on about what constitutes the
clever woman it is interesting to get
the opinion of great English au-
thor and editor.
A clever woman, as wife, is a
woman who is skilled in the conduct
of life, in the control of the house
hold, and, above all, in the manage
ment of her husband, says William
T. Stead in the Delineator. A woman
who could neither read nor write
would be bad wife for any ordinary
man in a civilized community, but
such an il1iterate woman, if she were
clever in all the arts of domestic
economy, in the rearing of children
and in bringing at once the inspira-
ton and comfort of her husband,
would be clever enough for the clev-
crest man in existence, and infinitely
preferable to the cleverest woman in
book learning that has ever been
turned out by university.

FOR THE SCHOOL BOARD.

Thirty women were nominated for
places on the School Board in Phila-
delphia Among them was Miss En-
lily Hallowell, sister of Miss Anna
Hallowell, the first woman ever ap-
pointed to the Philadelphia Board of
Education. Miss Emily Hallowell
was for a number of years the head
of private school for girls, the only
one in Philadelphia for a long time
where girls could be prepared for
college. Among the candidates from
the other wards were DR.. Clara Mar

College; DR.. Sarah Lockrey, president
of the Womans Medical Club, of
Philadelphia; Mrs. Edwin C. Grice,

PAINT EVERY YEAR.
No One Wants To Do 1t, But Some
Paint Will Wear No Longer.

When you have job of painting
done you don't expect to have it done
over again very soon, but to make
lasting job several things must be
taken into consideration-the proper
time to paint-the condition Of the
surface-the kind of materials to
use, etc. All these matters are fully
covered in the specifications, which
can be had free by writing National
Lead Company, 1902 Trinity Build
ing, New York, and asking for House
owners Painting Outfit No. 40. The
Outfit also includes book of color
schemes for both interior and exterior
painting, and a simple instrument for
detecting adulteration in the paint
materials. The outfit will solve many
painting problems for every house
owner.
Meantime when buying paint see
that every white lead key bears the
famous Dutch Boy Painter trade
mark, which is an absolute guarantee
Of purity and quality. If your paint

CONFIRMED MAN Halter.

Miss Harriet Evans, an elderly
spinster on whom an inquest was held
at Hackney, was said to have been a
confirmed man hater. "She was so
much against men that she would
not have coin with kings head Oh
it," her landlady said. eff one was
given her she would throw it into the
fire. She would only deal in money
bearing Queen Victoria's head" Miss
Evans went to the Office of a local
newspaper some time ago, but re-
fused to enter it until woman was
sent to transact business with her.
An advertisement for apartments
which she published stipulated that
there should be no man in the house.
She even declined to receive letters
because the stamps bore the Kings
head.-Pall Mall Gazette.

SCRUB PINE FOR PAPER MAKING
Long Neglected Tree Has Fibre Fit
Perhaps For Ledgers.

The long neglected scrub or Jersey
pine, growing on abandoned farms
and cut-over land of the East seems
destined at last, the Forestry Bureau
reports, to have reached its rightful
place as a material of value, accord
ing to the results obtained through
recent pulp and paper making tests
at the forest service laboratories at
Washington.
Scrub pine might have been used
to good advantage long ago, but it
did not seem to the practical paper
maker worthy of trial. By only
slight changes of the treatment Or
dinarily accorded pulp wood in the
sulphite process, it has now yielded
a pulp product which it is thought
can be used as substitute for spruce
sulphite in the manufacture of news
paper.
One advantage for paper making
which scrub pine is said to have is the
fact that there is less loss in barking
it than with ordinary spruce. The
wood yields quite easily to the sui
phite treatment.
The fibre is strong and durable.
The yields obtained by the forest SER
vice are about the same as those OBJ
tanned from woods now in general
paper making use.
Practical paper makers who have
seen this product are almost unani-
nous in claiming it to be q strong,
long-fbred and hard wearing pulp,
which seems especially desirable for
making bag, news and wrapping pa
pers. Several even went so far as to
say that it would make fine bank
or ledger papers when properly han
died. and that this wood gave one of
the best fbres which has been pre-
pared from pine wood.

Risky.

A minister went to visit a poor
woman in Scotland who had just lost
her husband. He tried to speak con-
solingly to her by pointing out that
the deceased was in a much happier
state.

said the worthy divine, your dear
husband is perhaps at this moment

On the street today we noticed a
little girl whose legs were particu-

them, gust of wind came around

both them Off between the ankle and

MODERN TRAVEL IN AFRICA.

1t may be said, without exaggera-
ton, that the Uganda Railway has
completely changed the impressions
produced by a considerable part Of
equatorial Africa, writes Mr.. A. F. R.
Wollaston in From Ruwenzori to
the Congo" Instead of spending
many weeks at the coast in collecting
provisions, porters and an escort for
the journey, the modern traveller in
East Africa installs himself comfort
ably with his belongings in a first
class railway carriage, and his jour-
aey across the continent of Africa is
begun.
1t was hard to believe that this was
the East Africa of which one had
beard so much, but according to fell
low passengers this was only the des-
ert of Sinai, and the Promised Land
lay beyond. Meantime, seeing that
was stranger in the land, these
same fellow passengers beguiled the
tedium of the journey with stories of
The lions which infest this region.
There was the we'll worn tale OF
he lion who overate, and was driven
along the road with a herd of dom
Keys, and the more credible story of
The unhappy lion hunter who slept at
his post in the railway carriage, and
was carried out of the window and
eaten by the very lion he went out to
;lay.
There is a strip of land a mile wide
IN each side of the railway line in
which it is forbidden to shoot any
hing but lions and leopaTds, and the
other creatures seem to be perfectly
aware Of the protection they have
here.
AS we approached the famous Athi
Plains the country literally swarmed
with game. 1t was like travelling

Everything buttons. Crochet but

Sleeves are long and clinging, with

WIsDOM'S WISE WHISPERS.

A man is at his best when he has
