a Blow Arrested.

An organist who on the eve Of fes-
tival was taken suddenly Ill secured
deputy to take his place. The depu-
ty, on the authority Of st James
Budget, was a gentleman who played
very full organ, playing full chords
where his principal played only single
notes, and consequently using a much
larger quantity of wind.
/ When about three parts through with
the "Hallelujah Chorus" the wind sud-
denly gave out Going round to the
back of the organ to ascertain the rea-
son. the deputy found the blower In
the act of putting on his coat prepara-
tory to going home.
what do you mean by such behav-
ior!" the deputy angrily expostulated.
Look here. sir" the blower returned
with warmth IF you think / don't
know 'ow many puffs 1t takes TO blow

RULES FOR WIVES.
To Whkgh Is Added Some Feminine
Advica to Husbands.

Advics to Husbands.
Some presumptuoSs Frenchmen pub
lished a list of commandments for
wives, one Of which ran: Now and
then acknowledged gracefully that tay
husband knows more about some
things than thou. After all, thou art
not infallible." A second and still mere
daring rule for wives was. Never be
aggressive in thy arguments with thy
husband. but always consider him as
superior TO thee. This was too much
for French feminists. and no wonder
One lady answers the presumptuols
man Indignantly:
The weaker sex has not merely du
ties; 1t has also rights. Feminism is
advancing. and nothing will stop it.
The weaker seS is the equal Of the
sterner, Equality forever! Here are,
the commandments which women OPP
pose to those of men.
The lady then gives her rules FOR
husbands with more spirit than logic:
Woman has a right to have whims;
1t is privilege of her sex. Never put
her out. She might have Mysteries,
which would impair her health and
cost the money In Doctors bills.
Another commandment runs:
Remember good man. that thy wife
is thy superior by her grace. her beau
ty and refinement. Therefore always
worship at her feet
Where. then good lady. does 'equal.
ity forever" come In. If woman not only
has privilege because she is woman.
but is decidedly superior to man?
Surely, the strong minded suffragist
would spurn privileges of sex. In an
other rule the lady seems to show
some sly knowledge Of her sisters.
If, good man, thou desirest mountain
air ask thy wife to come to the sea-
side; she will Immediately propose
holiday In Switzerland.
But this Is very mild gibe at her
own sex compared with her final
thrust at the other In her last rule
for husbands:
Man was created before woman as
sketch for the master
piece. Remember, then, 0 husband.
that thou art but rough draft.
This ought to shut any husband up
tinally.--Paris Cor. London Telegraph.

Some Fine Old Madeira.

An interesting fact that come To
our notice through Livingston Thomp.
son Of st. Louis In connection with a
case Of Madeira wine which, on the
occasion Of the birth Of the young
Thompson. was presented by the firm
OF E. La Montagne's Sons to his
father.
1t was the understanding that this
case was not to be opened until Mr..
Thompson should reach his twenty.
first year. and until that time it did
80 remain In his possession. The wine
when presented was ten years old
and there are now three bottles
which Mr.. Thompson is holding un,
til his daughter reaches twenty-one
years Of age. when they will ba
opened. Mr.. Thompson tells US that
the Madeira when opened had q rich
and delightful maturity and can be
classed among the finest wines he
has ever tasted.-Bonfort's Wine and

Tho Splendid Story Of Panama

The American people are
practical. They have little use
for theories, but are gluttons
for facts. Well, here are the
facts about what the United
States is doing on the Isthmus
of Panama, and to miss a line
of it is an act of injustice to
yourself and your country.
To begin with, two of the big
gest private engineers in this
country-Wallace and Stevens
absolutely failed to make
head against the difficulties of
building the canal. They gave
it up. We were obliged to call
on a little group of public en-.
gineers-Goethals and his as.
sociates-before we could find
men who dared to tackle the
stupendous undertaking. They
were obscure men, compared
with Wallace and Stevens, Just
West Pointers, educated by the
country for the army crops of
engineers. They obeyed orders
and tackled the biggest en-.
cheering job of all ages.
The first idea was to do the
work by contract, but all bids
received were impossible--eith-
er ridiculously high or hope
lessly irresponsible. We simply
had to drop the canal or dig it
ourselves. Remember that,

After replying to President

Mr.. Bryan presented a chal.

challenge is reiterated. Here
it is:
Mr.. Bryan challen es Mr..

and verbal recommendations
upon which he appointed JUS
tice White to the position of
chief justice over Justice Har.
Ian and the recommendations,
written and verbal, on which
he appointed the justices whom
he has placed on the supreme
bench. Did he know how they
stood on the trust question or
was it purely accidental that
all of his appointees took the
trust side of the question?
He signed a publicity bill
that requires publicity as to
campaign contributions. Why
not have little publicity as to
the influences that control the
