Money Value Of Women.

II you are a married woman, and
were asked to tell just what you were
worth in hard cash to your husband,
what figure would you name? The
question is not a fanciful one by any
means, but has been a subject OF 5u-
dicial consideration.
1t was this way! The wife OF an
Iowa farmer bought a gallon OF what
purported to be kerosene, but which
was afterward shown to be 81 per
cent. gasoline When the woman used
some of it to start fire with the stuff
exploded, and she was burnt to death
and her three children were seriously
injured. The woman's husband sued
the dealers for damages, and the jury
awarded him $25 for the loss Of his
wife and $299.71 per child on account
of injuries.
The defendants evidently thought
that woman was not worth $25, for
they took an appeal from the verdict.
The learned court, however, declined
to look at It in that light, and the
Judgment was afirmed.-New York
Mail.

Meaning of kalamazoo"

A contraction of an Indian phrase
descriptive of the stones seen through
the water In its bed, and which, from
a retroactive power in the current, re-
semble offers swimming beneath the
surface. Such is the explanation, and
the only one, as far as | know, that
has been given, of the meaning Of the
word Kalamazoo, and the author of
this remained unknown to me until a
short time ago, when I accidentally
discovered that 1t was III. r. School
craft. The fact is that the
alleged word negikanamazoo given by
Schoolcraft is a deliberate alteration
by him Of kikalamazo, written by the
French at q period when some dialect
of Ojibwa, to which the word belongs,
was still using the letter !. 1t Is a
slight very slight alteration of old
Ojibwa kikalamozo, meaning 'he is in
convenienced by smoke in his lodge"

STOPPED THE CHILD'S CRIES
Sudden Philanthropy of Newsboy Put
an End to Walls Of the
Younester.

Nobody seemed to know what he
was crying about, but it must have
been something, for the youngster was
running the entire gamut OF infantile
shrieks. He was a tow-headed, lace
collared little chap Of four or five.
down town on a shopping tour with
his mother, large, fashionably at
tired woman Of the society type.
People along the street turned and
looked at the waiting youngster, but
1t wasn't up to them to say anything
and they just let him CRY. The mother
tried to hush him, but to no avail.
Whatever it was that he was so lach-
rymous and worked up over had him
right. Then strolled up little news
boy-a lad probably nine or ten years
OF age, but not much larger than the
five-year-old. The newsboy was Just
starting to eat a banana when he
heard the shrill shrieks of the smaller
kid. Whether as a joke or in a spirit
OF magnanirlity he rushed up along
side Of the astonished mother placed
the banana in her sons hand and
says:
Here, DO, eat that an stop your
yellin'."
And the unexpectednes of the gift
did actually stop the noise and tears
in about two seconds and a half.

TENDERNESS TO THE AGED
Those In Their Helpless Years Sha uId
Be Treated With Kind and
Gentle Regard.

Nothing Is more beautiful or Christ
like in the character of the young
woman than a kind and gentle regard
for the old. They whose failing steps
are slowly descending the sunless
slope of age have but one consolation
as the years speed by them, and that
Is the tenderness and consideration Of
those on whose lives the beauties of
the morning are breaking. Age Is a
season of physical !nflrmity, of men,
tai retrospection, of shattered dreams
and earthly disappontments. No more
for the old Is there a glimmer in the
rolling stars, no more freshness In the
spring, no more a triumph In the
years. The thousand melodies of the
present sound far off to their aged
ears and its charms are blurred in the
ears and eyes whose tears fall on the
graves of old affections. Treat them
gently, for their travail and their sac
rifice are yet the possessors not only
OF existence In the world in whose
splendors We exult, but also for the
prosperity and happiness we thought
lessly enjoy. Never mind if she or he
be old and feeble and of humble garb
they look to you in their helpless
years to aid with gentle courtesy their
tottering steps. Gods blessing will re-
ward you if you do.-Catholic Uni.

WHEN WALKING WITH LADIES
Nearly Every Country, Has Its Own
Ideas as to Place Of Male
Escort.

Almost every country has its own
fashions for men who walk with ladies
on the public streets In America and
in England we walk on the side Of the
lady that Is nearer the street. Many
years ago when the streets were not
kept as clean as they are now, any
person walking on the outer edge of
the pavements was likely to get we'll
splashed with mud and rainwater and
that is why the gentlemen took that
side, so as to save the ladies' fine
clothes.
In some countries 1t Is considered
better for the gentleman to keep near
er the middle of the pavement in or
der to preserve the lady from jost-
ling of persons going in the opposite
direction in a crowded street. When
Il Is the rule for every one to keep
TO the right those who are on the
left of the two passing streams are
continually being bumped into. In
Germany the gentleman always keep
on the same side of the lady, no mat
ter which side Of the street they may
be on or which way hey are going.

LOW TONES ARE A SEDATIvE
Pitch the VOICE Deep When Under
Nervous Tension and Self-ControI
Is Gained.

An excellent sedative for nervous
excitement is found in using the voice
at It's lowest comfortable key. Imme-
date relief from suffering Is often
obtained by dropping the voice from a
high pitch to lower tone. Teachers
whose pupils become restless and I'M
ruly as they themselves grow tired
and nervous will find that a low
pitched, quiet tone will relieve their
own nervous tension, and prove won
derfully quieting to their pupils.
This simple expedient is also USE
full when you are trying to control or
