His E9reference.

A distinguished eye surgeon tells a
good story of his hospital days. Three
other young. newly fledged oculists
and himself were chatting in their
quarters in the hospital when the con-
versation turned, as was natural in
young men, upon the beauty of differ
ent colors of eyes. One championed
the superior brilliancy and sparkle OF
the blue eye; another the depth and
fire of the brown, while the third was
all for the clear, cool light of the
hazel After they had exhausted their
eloquence, with the usual effect of con-
firming themselves in their original
opinions, the fourth young sawbones
suddenly broke in:
Il don't care a hang about your blue
eyes, or your brown eyes. or your gray
eyes! Just give me sore eyes and
plenty of 'em-and I'll be happy"

Prestige of Office.

The values of public Office have un-
derdone many changes in the course
of our history: Strange as it may seem
now, the mayoralty Of New York was
the great prize for young political am
billions 100 years ago. 1t was then
an appointive office within the gift OF
the governor of the state. Dewitt
Clinton left the United States senate
to accept it when it was bestowed
upon him by his uncle, the governor.
Indeed, in the era the test of attrac-
tiveness of Office appeared to be its
proximity to the people. The United
States senatocship, now only a small
er crown for a career than the pres
idency itself, was looked upon as not
much more desirable than a seat in
the popular house. There is record
of the resignation of a distinguished
Connecticut senator to become secre-
tary of the state board of education.
Another left the senate to take part
nership in a commercial firm. The
governorship of a territory seemed
more desirable than a chair in the
United States senate to one man who
might fairly claim to be in the sec
ond row of prominence in his day.

Shows Work of Flipinos.

Miss Frances MCGEE, a supervisor
of schools in the Philippines, is re-
sponsible for the collection of laces
and embroideries which is being ex-
hibited at Teachers college, New
York. All the lace and embroidery is
done by Filipinos, boys and girls, in
the public schools of the islands. 1t
is planned by the school authorities to
teach these young workers such pat
terms and stitches as will make their
work more marketable. The abaka
lace and other of the coarser laces
seen in the exhibition are made by
boys and girls in third and fourth
grades of the school. In the upper
grades the boys turn their talents to
the making of furniture and to agri-
culture. These Philippine schools are
entirely self-supporting, and according
to the latest report of the bureau of
education, the number Of American
teachers is constantly decreasing,
their positions being filled by native
students as they are graduated by the
normal school.

NEW WOOL MEASURE
Is PASSED BY HOUSE
Democrats Push Bill Through With
Aid of Republican Progressives by
Vote of 1S9 to 90.

Washington The Democratic
bill reducing the tariff duties on
wool, wool clothing, carpets and other
products was passed by ~ house OF
representatives 189 to go. The meas
ure Is identical with the Underwood
bill passed by the house last session
and the Democratic majority preserved
it intact from amendment by the Re
publicans in putting 1t through the
house.
Twenty Republican insurgents voted
with the Democrats on the final pas
sage Of the measure, and one Demo
crat, Representative Francis, from the
wool growing state of Ohio. voted
against his party's bill.
Spirited partisan debate preceded
the passage of the bill. Representa-
tive Payne, author of the present tar
if, attacked the Democratic measure
on the ground that it did not agree
with the report Of the tariff board
Representatives Randell Of Texas and
kitchin of North Carolina, Democrats,
earnestly defended the bill and scored
the report of the tariff board as value
less
The Underwood bill places 20 per
cent ad valorem duty on raw wool and
reduces the existing duties on manu-
featured wool from 80 to so per cent
with an average reduction.

Baking Economy.

BY the use of perfect baking powder
the housewife can derive as much econ
omy as from any other article used in
baking and cooking. In selecting a bak-
ing powder, therefore, care should be eX-
ercised TO purchase one that retains its
original strength and always remains the
same, thus making the food sweet and
wholesome and producing sufficient leay-
ening gas to make the baking light
Very little of this leavening gas is pro-
duced by the cheap baking powders, max
ing it necessary to use double the guam
tity ordinarily required to secure good re-
suits.
You cannot experiment every time you
make a cake or biscuits. or test the
strength of your baking powder TO lind
