BURGOMASTER WORTH WHILE
City's Municipal Head Well Earned
Unique Distinction Accorded Him
by Grateful viennese.

The fame of Joseph Schoeffel, re-
Gently deceased, and for many years
burgomaster of Moedling, Austria,
probably had not passed Austrian
boundaries; nevertheless he was cele-
brated within them. His was the
unique distinction of being the only
Austrian subject to whom statue
has been erected during his lifetime.
He won this honor by his successful
fight 40 years ago to prevent a
"ring" of spectators and officials
obtaining the ownership Of the for
ests surrounding Vienna. He COM
PEELED the ''ring" to sue him for
libel, won his case, and by his victory
obliged the government to make the
'Wienerwald" forever inalienable.
Hence the grateful Viennese hailed
him as the savior of the Wienerwald
and set up his image where all fu-
ture raiders of the public lands
might see it and take warning. The
whole story is striking chapter of
the true romance of conservation.

MAKING THE AGENT USEFUL
Practical Woman Of To-day Wants
Sewing Machine Man to Do
Useful Stunts.

"Nerve?" said the sewing ma
chine agent. at takes people who
buy sewing machines to give first
class illustration of nerve. The
things they want to practice on
when learning to sew is what floors
me. There was a time when the
agent who was giving instruction in
the management of a sewing ma
chine did stunts with little squares
and diamonds of silk to show the
possibilities of the machine. But
the modern customer objects to such
waste of time. She hunts up
something useful to seam and tuck
babies dresses, aprons, shirt
waists, and, as an extreme example,
pair of overalls.
"It won't take any longer to
teach us with these things than with
those absurd little gimcracks,' says
the practical woman, and then there
will be something to show for your
work.
"And what can the poor agent do?
In a sense the woman is right. 1t
won't take any longer, so in order to
make sale the agent turns himself
into kind of dressmaker's and
tailor's apprentice"

GROWTH OF COLLEGES.

In actual gain during the last
year Pennsylvania university leads
with the largest percentage. Com
pairing the registration figures of
1908 with those Of 1909 we note the
following heavy gains: Pennsyl-
vania, 1856; Cornell, 268; Wisconsin,
25S; Ohio, 202; Harvard, 1872; Hi
nois, 121; Columbia, 10; Princeton,
"a. Yale shows loss of 1874 stu
dents, which is a decrease of five per
cent Pennsylvania's gain is nine
per cent. This increase is most re-
markable when it is taken into con-
sideration that this gain is not
equaled by any of the heavily en-
dowed western institutions.-Old

hats; and gladness might with her
abide, if she would pad her head
inside. For beauty is a transient
thing, the hurried years are on the
wing; the dazzling maiden of today
will soon be haggard, worn and
gray; and in LIES winter, when
she sits beside her lonely hearth
and knits, it will not lesson her
despair, to think of rats she used
to wear. But if her mind is stored
with gold from books the sages
wrote of old, With ancient lore or
modern song, the days will not
seem drear and long; life's twilight
will be calm and fair, and lone
illness will not be there.
