A chrysanthemum Luncheon,

Judging from the numerous letters
from brides-elect. Cupid must have
been unusually busy with his little
bow and arrow. There are so many
requests for pre-nuptial functions,
am sure the description OF this chry-
santhemum luncheon will be very ac-
ceptable.
1t was gorgeously brilliant, the color
scheme being yellow; especially fitting
for this month as November claims
the topaz and the chrysanthemum; In
this instance It was also the brides
birthday month as we'll as her we'd
ding day season. For centerpiece
there was n mound of yellow NUNS"
kept In place by embedding the stems
In sand. At each place there was a
little yellow jardiniere containing one
stin. straight little yellow mum" to
which the name card was attached
with yellow ribbon. The grape fruit
cocktail had a wee mum In the cen
ter of the fruit: around the stem Of
the glass there was fluffy bow OF
white tulle. The plates on which the
frappe glasses stood had wreath OF
yellow NUNS" around them and the
ice-cream was In boxes concealed by
petals of yellow crepe paper NUNS,
The candle sticks were of silver and
had yellow shades, Al each place
were yellow slippers filed with sailed
nuts. Just the bridal party were In.

a oDAY the songbirds of the United

II was a hard fight to get the masses OF the
people interested in the bird protection move

hear the bird protectors spoken of as mere sen

been sneered at as effemnate. The truth Is tnat
most of the men who engaged In the work OF pre-
serving the feathered species were hard-headed
and could prove on occasion that they were nara
listed.
II takes only casual glance at woman's hat
today to show that the fashion Of wearing feath-
ers is still il not supreme at least ruler 10
considerable degree 1t should be known, how
ever that not once in a hundred times do you see
on a womans head today the plumage OF native
American bird. The traffic in the feathers OF
bluebirds, robins, catbrds and other dooryard
pets has been almost entirely stopped. Even
those who wish that the plumage wearing habit
should cease altogether powerless to prevent
the sale of the feathers of certain species OF for

fond is a part of the plumage of the snowy heron,
a bird which lives not only in the United States
but in certain foreign countries. II bird is to

numerous conferences were held In
New York. AT these conferences the
various officials OF the company were
present. ana at one OF the meetings
discussion arose in regard TO the
length Of service OF many Of the EN-
ployes Of the company.
We found that We had probably
as notable a gathering of long time
service men as could be found IN
almost any factory In the country, and
especially IN an automobile factory,

CURIOUS FACTS

A curious barometer used in Ger
many and Switzerland consists of
a pan of water with frog and
little stepladder in it. When the
frog comes out of the water and
sits on the steps it is said infallibly
to foretell rain.
Japan has an avenue of trees
fifty miles in length. The trees are
the cryptomera, quite straight,
from 130 to $50 feet in height
and twelve to fifteen feet in cir
cumference. The avenue extends
from the town of Namanda to
Nikko.
In the Sandwich islands widows
have their departed husbands
names tattooed on their tongues.
lniGermany prisoner is acquitted
on tie vote by the jury. A vote
of seven to five leaves tile decision
with the court, while vote of
eight to four means conviction.
In Abyssinia it is considered a
crime to smoke. The law forbid
ding tobacco was at first intended
to prevent priests from smoking in
church; but it was taken too liter
ally, and nowadays even foreigners
have to be careful not to be seen
smoking.
Of the all people of Europe the
French have the fewest children
and the Irish the most. The aver
age French family numbers 3.3
persons, and the average Irish
family numbers So In England
the averave is 4.8. The Spanish
and Russian closely approach the
Irish. In contrast to the French

MARK TWAIN'S CABIN

1t may be interest ing t. Gold
fielders to know that the famous
"Old Mark Twain Cabin" is still
sanding where it was Luilt in
Aurora, Esmeralda county, away
back in the SOS. In appear
ance it is plain two-roomcd affair
with small front stoop, and it ap-
pears upon the county assessors
tax roll from year to year and up
to the present time as Mark
Twain's lot and cabin on Pine
street. AS far back as any one
can remember or record, it has
each year become delinquent, but
usually bought in for taxes by the
owner. In 1906 T. c. Sharp and
Dave Stewart came into possession
of this famous land mark and since
that time it has been assessed to
them. 1t has been necessary to re-
pair and re-shingle it many times as
tourists and relic seekers stripped
it bit by bit, of small pieces, parts
of locks, hinges, a shingle or silver
of wood.-Goldfield Tribune.

TOOK A PLUNGE
IN CYANIDE TANK

William Rogers, employed at the
big cyanide plant of Charles But
tiers Company in Six mile Canyon,
had an exciting experience Satur-
day night which he will have cause
to remember for some time. While
working on valve with a wrench
near one of the big cyanide tanks,
he made miscue and fell head-long
into the tank, which is fully 25 feet
deep, and several hundred feet in
circumference. Fortunately assist
ance was close at hand and Rogers
was fshed out from his pcrlious
position.
The first aid to the injured, al
ways on hand at the plant for
which emergencies, was applied and
he was relieved of any of the cyan
ide solution that he might have
swallowed upon his immersion.
Treatment was also administered to
his eyes and DR.. Hodgins called in,
Mr.. Rogers was all right today, and
with the exception of a little sore
ness about the eyes, appeared to be
none the worse off for his cyanide
bath.-Virginia Chronicle.

UNIQUE SCHOOL IN BOSTON

A school of matrimony has late
ly been established in Boston. For
the Athens of America this is in
deed quite an innovation. Some
good easy going people have de-
ludea themselves into thinking that
matrimony belongs to no school, and
it needed no school. AS to it let
Reno answer!
In this Boston school group of
girls, including the younger mem
bers of some of the best and oldest
of Boston families, are being train
cd five days each week in the useful
and household arts. The idea, in
brief, is to furni5h a highly prac-
ticaI equipment and to enable the
girl students to become ideal as
wives, mothers and home makers
The course includes instruction by
some of the best Boston educators
in literature, ethics, child study
household arts, house building,
textiles and sewing, hand work and
design, music in the home, litera-
ture for children, home economies,
chemistry, biology, social eco
nomics, hygiene, dental hygine, home
nursing and the care of delinquent
children Such school is far more
in keeping with the prevailing spirit
of modernity than in the recent
crusade on the part of the mayor
of indianapolis against "spooning"
in the nickelodeons, which if sue
cessful, would tend toward the dis
couragement of matrimony even
more than does the New York
Marriage License bureau. The
mayor of Indianapolis proposes to
turn on the lights on the moving
picture show at frequent and un-
expected intervals, so as to cover
with confuson young persons en-
gagged in "spooning'' and to hold
them up to ridicule and scorn. A
Brooklyn park commissioner once
had somewhat SIMILAR idea as to
turning on the electric light in
dark places in Prospect park and
in other parks.
