THE FATA M0RGANA
Conditions That Must Obtain to Al
low of Its Production.

The fata morgana Is singular aerial
phenomenon akin to the mirage. IL Is
seen in many parts of the world, but
most frequently and in greatest per-
fection at the strait of MesSina, be-
tween Sicily and Italy. So many CON
ditions must coincide, however, that
even there it is of comparatively rare
occurrence. To allow of its production
the sun must be at an angle OF forty
five degrees with the water. both sky
and sea must be calm and the tidal
current sufficiently strong to cause
the water in the center to rise higher
than on the edges of the strait When
these conditions are fully met the OBJ
server on the heights of Calabria, look
ing toward Messina, will behold a
series of rapidly changing pictures,
sometimes of most exquisite beauty.

The archer. his October ale 1s
That sparkles bright and brown:
But search the green earth far and wide,
There's naught so dear to me
As the little grassy wander-roads
That lead beside the sea.
They gave me wine unto my lips,
And gold within my hands,
And filled my gamers high with grain
AS pittance of my lands;
But naught 1 own-nor land nor gold
Cries half SO sweet to me
AS my little, grassy Wonder-roads,
A-calling by the sea.

How Do They Live?

When the average person consid-
ers the high cost of living here in
Maine, and then compares it with the
cost of the same class of liv-
ing in a city like New York, it is diff
ficult for him to understand how a
great percentage of the people of
Gotham manage to subsist at all. AS
a result of Investigations which have
been going on for some time, an eco
startling fact has been
brought to light that one woman in
every four in the great CITY of New
York is a wage Garner and that less
than one fifth of these earn what the
experts call the living wage"
Curiously enough, employment on
women's clothing brings the best re-
turn in this field of meager pay. The
average weekly wage for this work is
$7.68. Next in turn come millinery
and lace goods, 1888; tobacco, 1885,
mems clothing, $6.47; and fancy and
paper box work, $685. These are the
most important trades. 1t seems that
one out of every ten women in the
city works in factory in one of these
lines. Irregular employment, how
ever, due mainly to slack seasons,
modities the wage figure. 1t is shown
that only one of every five girls lost
no time in the year. AZ per cent lost
time averaging from one to four
Thus for the IS girl this
would mean reduction of from so
cents to 81 per week-and yet we

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

It's much more serious for girl to
be bilious than lovesick.
It's harder for a mean man to spend
money than it is for generous one to
make it.
Champagne in speaker never made
him witty: sometimes in his audience
it makes them think he is.
Women deserve so much which they
never can get that some men seem to
think it isn't worth while giving them
anything.
The only thing that will keep for
ever without cold storage is scandal.
A reformer gets a stroke of paraly-

The only way man can get civility
from his relatives is to be richer than
they are.

A spin really ought to accomplish

Trade School for Girls

One of the latest propositions in the
educational line is a trade school for
girls. At recent banquet of the
dressmakers' club of Chicago, several
speakers averred that in the discus
sions of technical training the chances
and needs of the boys almost mon
opolized attention. With millions of
women and girls in various occupa-
tons, it would seem that the claim was
just that more attention should be
paid to the practical education Of
girls.
The question is a large one, but a
moments thought opens a wide field
to be considered. We might say at
the start that the field of dressmaking
and designing is wide one, and that
the demand for competent and skilled
workers is greatly in excess of the
supply, thus arriving at the conclu-
sion that a scientific course in design
ing and dressmaking is highly desra-
bic. But the question concerns voca-
tional training in general. and the
establishment of trade schools for
girls
In New York, the state board of ed
ucation has taken over experimentallv
the girls trade school, where many
courses are taught to prepare the pu-
pills for earning a decent livelihood
and avoiding the "sweated" industries,
on the one hand, and the over crowded
ones, on the other. This school is said
to have been success. and it is hoped
that school authorities in other cities
may take note of the progress and
the advantages of such an institution,
with the object of starting similar
one. when conditions will permit.

Approaching Ideal Prison Life.

At first thought it might seem that
there could be no such thing as ideal
prison life. but most of us are ready
to admit that such conditions could be
produced as to be uplifting to those
confined rather than degrading.
Such. perhaps, as described in an ar
ticle by W. Beach Thomas. in the
London Mail. may have come as near
to such an ideal as any thus far con-
ceived. This article is fascinatingly
interesting in it's descriptions of the
great success of the venture. 1t tells
of the uplifting and profitable work and
its effect on the character: of the
thorough and scientifically exact in
struction impaired and of what the
system has thus far accomplished.

Name, Please?

Do you know what, your name means?
No name is mere sound but word
that was probably intended to describe
some quality of the man or woman to
whom it was FIRST given. Nowadays.
however, the meaning of names is
usually quite lost sight of, and they are
given on account of their pretty sound or
because they belonged to some friend or
relative. Very few of our names are
modern English. They are mostly Greek.
Hebrew, Latin, Morse and Anglo-Saxon,
and if we were to translate them they
would sound rather funny.
For instance, Simon means Obedient,
and Sophia, Wisdom. and fheir mother
might say to them, "Obedient, why can
not you learn to do what you are told?'
and Wisdom, how can you be so fool
lsh? Or, suppose the babys name Is
Mary, which means Bitter, you would
often be saying, How sweet Little Bitter
is"
You can have some fun by finding out
the meaning of your names and using
them in talking to each other. Here are
