The Masculine Limit.

Men have not objected to doing cer- tain work ordinarily regarded as the special employment of women. Indeed, they do it better. They are the choice tailors. for<instance. to whom fashion able women go; they are the high priced chefs at the big hotels. And yet the masculine sense revolts at the usurpation of the feminine function It seems no more manly for man to do womaniy things than 1t seems wom- aniy Tor a woman to be doing a mans work.
 It has remained for a French woman to put husband and wife on a parity so lar as work is concerned. Mime. Ie Nerrler, now in New York, has this to say: -1 here is no reason why woman should be expected to sew, cook. scrub and darn socks any more than man. l think that boys should be taught these useful occupations just the same as girls"
 So there you are. The women hav- ing routed us out of the superior pur- suits in life, having invaded most of the professions and all the trades, would now like men to darn their own socks. We do not take Mme. Le Verrier se- riously, however. She is a most kindly and benign lady. We might suggest to her that if her own country paid less attention to the cultivation of the "cordon bleu% and more to the famous policy advocated by Theodore Roose- Welt her health and birthrate would be greatly enhanced.-Philadelp Press.

ORDINARY CARE
 LESSENS DANGER

Authorities are pretty well united III the opinion that ordinary care on tne bart of the individual greatly iessshs the danger of contracting consump- tion. So many cases of this dread dls- ease have their origin in neglect or an ordinary cough or cold. that IL IS ap- palling to note the indifference wlth which so many people regard ms common complaint,
 At the first indication Of cold steps should be taken to check 1t at once For this purpose the following simple formula is highly recommended as being most effective. Mix together in a large bottle, two ounces of Gly- cerine, a half ounce of Virgin OH of Pine compound pure and eight ounces of pure Whiskey. Shake well and take a teaspoonfuI four times a day. It is claimed by the Leach Chemical Co, of Cinicnnati,. who prepare the genuine Virgin Oil of Pine compound pure. that this mixture will break up a cold in twenty-four hours and cure any cough that is curable.

The Seal of Connecticut.

A report of a lecture in The Times of January as to the great seal of Connecticut is interesting, but not all together in accordance with facts. Prior to 1876. I know nothing about the history of the seal. In that year I came in, by proxy, control of it. It was bronze on copper concern and the only way you could make an i'm pressfon with it was with a. screw press with arms about three feet long that endangered anyone's head in the near vicinity. AS the secretary's office had to put this seal on all commissions and the number of notary commissions amounted to some hundreds, I asked the secretary, the late David Torrance. chief justice of the supreme court if I might get something more modern. He like the old one as possible that would work with a lever instead of the old screw.
 After the new seal had been in use for a. year or so and the commissions of most of the judges of the state bore it's impression, Dr. Hoadley, then state librarian, found out about it, and he stoutly asserted that the seal was not However, as there were so many com missions dependent for validity on 'Hinman's Seal' it stood, and stands yet The original seal that I found in the office and used for time with the old "cider press" is. I presume, somewhere in the secretariy's office yet. The only time that it was ever put away. so far as I know, was dur ing the hold over" term of Gov. Bulkeley. At that time, owing to a little talk and some doubt in my own mind. put the original and genuine" seal where 1t would not be likely to be found by any one that presumed to be secretary while I thought differently. As everything passed off pleasantly, the old seal was quietly put back in it's pigeon hole and I presume that Hin mans .Sealy still puts it's genuine im-

NEW RAILROAD PLANNED.
From Westchester Across He'll Gate

 ProgreSs on plans for construction of the railroad from Westchester across Hell Gate and through Queens by the New York Connecting Railroad company, was shown by the transfer last week of so lots at Terminal Heights, WOodside The tract was sold for $150.000 by Terminal Heights Real Estate company; which acts for the railroad
 The purchase was made in order to provide for switches, turnouts and a yard through which connections will be established with the Pennsylvania Long Island system at the east end of the Sunnyside yards. The Connect ing railroad also secured permission and Roosevelt avenues and Thirteenth street by means of steel bridges. Along the six miles of Queens territory to be traversed by the railroad no thorough fares will be crossed at grade.

Literary Pure Food Label.

All who use libraries are familiar | with the index congregations and the three e-starred book" kept in the In- ferno of the Public library. It is re- cognized that libraries must exercise some sort of censorship over the books which are permitted to go into the hands of readers. Literary poison 1 must be labelled.
 Now comes the suggestion from the picturesque Charles F. Lummis of the Los Angeles Public library that libra
 rians should go even farther. He has been sounding sentiment all over the country and has found that while they | nearly all agree with him, no one is | doing what he proposes-that there should be a literary pure-food law for
 readers of other than works of fiction.
 The reader should be protected against what may properly be denoninated "ptomaine history. Every librarian
 knows that many historical works are
 full of errors. It is also known that
 the average reader takes for gospel what he finds in a reference book, and consults neither librarian nor other
 authorities. Every library should pos
 sess Prescott's Conquest of Mexsco' and Conquest Of Peru" even though
 they should be read for their charm, rather than for reliable information about the civilizations Of Host races Anybody who has read the works of Lewis H. Morgan or 4. F. Bandeller knows that Prescott's picture is as misleading as it is fascinating. In stances of similar character might
 be multiplied.
 The position taken by Mir. Lummis Is that libraries are not merely conSer- vers and ditributors of books, but ed- ucators, and that education is the dis semination of truth. And it is part of the duty of the library to wean it's readers from the slavish superstition of the infalIlibility of type The safe way is to warn the reader that the printed book of information is not in fallible. The librarian to whom the reader comes will tell him where the other side of the question may be found, where he may derive later and more reliable information, what is the view generally accepted by critics, ject in a different light. The trouble is that the average reader does not consult the librarian. He takes the book and others reading it returns it with the conviction that it is the law and the gospel.
 The remedy proposed is worthy of consideration. Let the book itself tell the reader these things by a~series of labels. The Boston athenaeum to a certain extent does this by occasional 1y inserting in text books expert re- views from critical sources or note of reference to collateral or more mod ern authorities. and thus stops the end less chain of error. It is a system which may be extended to reference works by a series of labels suggesting other books. The obvious objection Is a lack of time and means, but surely the resources of the library ought to be ample to allow it to fulfil the wider educa tionaI function of checking the proTnulgation of error. Cooperation between all libraries would greatly pure-food act effective.-Boston Tran script.

APPARENTLY DEAD
Middletown Child Was Revived by Physician-Parents Being Overjoyed

The Middletown Press says: A startling case in which the apparently dead was restored to life happened in the practice of a local physician on Tuesday
 It was the case of a two years old infant, who was thought to have died suddenly and was so pronounced aft CT being examined by competent au- thority. As the death was sudden the medical examiner was notified. Dr. Calef was at the house within 10 nlin- utes after the case was reported to him. He was not satisfied that death had supervened. although the child lay still and white and there was no perceptible heart action and no signs of breathing. Dr. CaIef gave the in fant a hypodermic injection over the heart and started massage and artifi- cial respiration with such good results that within two minutes of the time he began work the child set up a. feeble cry and wihhin a. few minutes after ward was fully restored. The child is vet alive and bids fair to remain so The parents were overjoyed.
