New York, Dec l5.--Much. has been
written about the Indifference mani.
tested toward The Wright brothers
by their fellow count t@& during
the early days or their areihl expert
mentation. Wilbur Wright has a IA
vorite story which he tells, on accos-
ion to illustrate the attitude OF neigh
bors and friends toward ".cranks' who
attempt to do something different.
"A friend of mine" said Mr.. Wright
visited Scotland years ago, and paid
pilgrimage to the birthplace of Tho.
mas Carlyle. Falling in with an aged
native. and thinking to please the
old man. he warmly praised the local
hero. The Scotchman only shifted
and grunted
"'Ye think Carlyle was a smart
mon" he inquired 'Weel, dinna
think so. Why, | went to skule wi
him.

A young woman librarian in a

Without q Maid.

The hostess of small meas often
wonders how she can serve ladies'
luncheon without a maid. The mat
ter is not very difficult if you plan
everything to save yourself effort af-
ter your guests are seated. To begin
with, you can place the sailed nuts
and bon-bons in their dainty little
dishes near the cetnerpiece. Then
arrange a side-table near your elbow
and on this put extra plates and the
like. Your salad course can BE- there.
if you think best, and anything else
which will not spoil by standing.
Have the fruit on the table when you
come in.
Fill your bouillon cups with hot
water ten minutes before the meal,
and just before you go to the table
turn this out and fill the cups with
scalding soup. Put the cups on the
table at the side of each plate, and
after the grapes are eaten, each guest

OF her, first handing you the used
plate to lay on the side table close
to you.
This course over you will have to
rise. remove the cups, bring forth the
next course. 1t is to be hoped your
guests will be considerate enough to
chat together while this is going on,
and not complicate matters by at
tempts to rise and help. After this
of course the salad will come, and
when this is gone the table must be
crumbed before the dessert is brought
in. The tea or chocolate may be
brewed at the table. With thoughtful
planning there is no reason why the
meal should not progress smoothly.

Not the Usual Romance.

Recently one of our most fastidious
young men bought a pair of overalls
and found in them the name OF the
sewing girl who made them.
He very promptly wrote her letter
with all the effusiveness necessary in
such case and in due time received
reply. which. however. was void OF
the romance usual in such cases. Here
II is: II am working girl. it is true,
but make good living, and do not
care to support husband. as would
do II ] married some silly noodle who
gets mashed on a girl he never saw.
Permit me to say that do not know
how my card got In that pair of over
alls and that when do marry, If ever,
II will be some fellow who can afford
something better than forty-seven
cent pair Of breeches. "-Muscotah Re

The Old Fashioned Mother.

"Old fashioned" is the phrase that
has been bestowed upon the home
bound mother to cover all her short
comings; and everything she says
an deevrything she does, Is lightly
set aside with this odium attached to
it.
"Old fashioned!' how she hates the
term!
1t seems to me that in the main
principles underlying our lives we are
about the same today as we were
when l was young" said a mother
to me recently. She was chatting un-
der the sigma of "old fashioned"
ut is on ly in outward signs that
we differ. Aid these outward things
will be changing forever; so what is
the good of making a fetch of them,
of giving up our soul to them?"
This motheri not more than five
and forty, but she has three daugh-
tiers of the exuberant, high-headeG
ultra progressive, work-a-day type
who, though still in their teens" re.
gard themselves as quite grown and
thoroughly capable of managing
themselves without the interference
of mother with Methuselah-like
ideas.
Yet the mother is far from ignor-
ant. Sc was i nher youth a govern
ess in certain noble families of both
England and France. In Paris she
lived at one time "just around the
corner" from Victor Hugo, Emile 70
ia, Sara Bernhard. and other talent
ed folk, and she talks with perfect
knowledge of the conspicuous and in
conspicuous members of the royal
familie sof Europe.
She is familiar with the names of
the great writer's an dgreat musici-
ans and their best works. She has
tutored more than one prominent cit
izen of New York City, and she
knows something of the philosophy
of life. ana OF the shams and failures
of human society.
But since her marriage affluance in
wealth has not been ehrs, and the
demands of an ever increasing ia
! mily have caused her to submergo
her welfare into that of her children
as all mothers with large hearts and
moderate means will do.
with the result that they call her
old fashioned and treat her az
though she were out of the pale of
life. And this at a time when she
most needs consideration and affec-
ton.
-any young people follow the siren
voice of noise ana vain show over
the hills and far away from true pro-
gress. And the mother who is
thoughtlessly derided as an old ia
shioned and inconsequential sees this
delusion, but her warning, alas, is un.
heeded.-EXchange

A Long Felt Want.

An American once went to Windsor
castle and insisted upon seeing Queen

quite impossible. as an audience with
the queen could be had only by APP
pointment Still he persisted. and then
they told him fiatfooted that before
seeing the queen he must state the OBJ
ject of his visit He said he wanted
to show her new piece Of furniture,
