BljnY Men in Business.


A business corporation has been
successfully established in Vienna by
men who are totally blind. The COM
pany manufactures brushes and bas-
kets, and all its employees are blind.
In the eight months of it's existence
It has filled orders aggregating $4,000
kronen, making fair profit, and has
enough orders on hand to justify the
enlargement of it's workshops. Six
teen of the employees are skilled
workmen, and the company wishes 1t
known that their wares are sold on
their actual merit" that they are
put upon the market Gin fair COM
petition with the product Of other
concerns" and that the blind people
want business not charity"

R0yAL|STS FEAR
ASSASSINATION
BY REPUBLICANS
Followers of Manuel Leav,
+ ing Portugal in Large
Numbers.

BApAJOz-(spl.)-The recent
sudden fight from Portugal of large
numbers of sympathizers with the old
regime is beginning to be explained.
The monarchists are leaving the
country under threat OF assassination
by the Carbonario-the secret society
which was directly responsible fol
engineering the revolution.
The heads of the present govern
ment are not members of the organ
ization. The Carbonate consists
mainly of the bourgeois" class and OF
soldiers and sailors. either of the
ranks or the bearers Of the love-
grade of commissions.
After the revolution had been phi
through the society recognized the
necessity of giving the high govern
mental Offices to men Of higher stand
ing than any of them possessed.
Men like President Braga, Foreign
Minister Machado, Minister of Public
Works Gomez and Minister Of the In
terror Almeida were accordingly plac.
ed in charge. The chief difficulty that
these men have had to encounter has
heen that they are entirely depend
snt upon the good will of the Carbon
ariO to retain Office.
And the society being exceedingly
radical and irresponsible in its COM
position the greatest trouble has beer
experienced by the ministry in main
tanning order and establishing a civ
ilized government without antagoniz
ing their supporters.

Exporting Canaries.

Germany carries on large trade
In the export of canaries. Every year
sho sends no fewer than 10000 Of
these birds to America. 5000 to
England and about 1000 to Russia.
The great nursery for the breeding
Of canaries is the Hartz mountains.
Many Of the peasants are engaged in
the work Of rearing the birds and re-
ceive wages Of from $50 to 1925 a
year for their trouble-an important
addition to their earnings. Many
canaries come also from the Black
Forest, but they do not fetch such
high prices as the Hartz birds. not

SHEER COLLARS WITH
LOW NECKED FR0CKS

Never have there been so many
charming collars for low necked
blouses and frocks and in most Of
them the square-backed arrange
ment plays an important part.
One is almost inclined to believe
that the high-necked arrangements
on summer frocks are to be COM
pletely tabooed were it not that the
designers have supplied, too, an I'M
usually large and varied assortment
of standing collars and stocks.
These come separately or in con-
nection with jabots and frills and will
be a pretty addition on cool days to
the tailored linen suit.
The low fiat collars, however, are
generally made of fine linen and lawn,
daintily embroidered.
A charming little sailor collar to
be worn with a linen frock is of sheer
white lawn with a dainty hemstitched

SERPENT TONGUE
Of SCANDAL EVEN
SHADOWS THRONE
Idle Gossip Often Leads to
Tragedy and Wrecked
Homes.

TINE shadow that has for years
lain across the life of King
George of England. brought
there by whispers by innuendoes and
the casual gossip of men and women
eager for such a morsel. has at last
been lifted.
The man who circulated the rumor
that the king had been morganatical-
" married to the daughter of Admiral
Seymour many years ago is now lac
ing many years II British prison.
and the king and mis- queen may lift
their heads proudly. with the final
doubt as to their married happiness
lifted forever by actual evidence CIV
en- in court.
Yet it is more than probable that
the whispers will continue behind the
throne. The story once begun goes on
and on, no matter whether it be true
or false and no matter whether the
victim Is a great king upon his throne
or some simple girl living quietly at
home.
A contemptuous laugh, half whis-
pered word, a misconstrued sentence
can start the serpent's tongue OF Cos
sips, and. swifter than the wireless
itself, it goes speeding around, bring
ing first, bewilderment, then indigna-
ton, and finally absolute despair to
it's victim.
It hasn't been many days since a
young wife drank poison, leaving be-
hind her pathetic little note saying
that people had spoken i'll of her to
her husband, and that all her protests,
all her pitiful little proofs of her in
nocence could not remove the doubt
from his mind. and SO she did not
want to live any more.
Perhaps true love should have cast
out all doubt, but. alas! it seldom
