 American women may take tor- rdbIe revenge tn contemplating the fact that Mrs. Gilman will pass her fifty third milestone to-day, as it is stated on the best authority, and has never been denied, that she was born in Hartford, Conn.,. July 8, 1880.
 Mrs. Gilman's first attempts at au- thorship were made under her maiden name of Charlotte Perkins She was twenty four when she married C. w.

SHEEP SO FOUR MONTHS
 WITHOUT WATER

Sheep on the Nebo national forest, Utah, go four and a. half months with out water except for such moisture as they get from the dew and the juices for forage plants.
 Grazing sheep on a range entirely destitute of water is a recent dnnova- ton due to the increasing demand for forage and the efforts of the forest officers to find a place on the forest ranges for all the stock that can safe ly be admitted. The area on the Nebo which has now proved usuable by sheep Is high and rocky, a portion of it being above timber lime. and 1t has neither springs nor streams of suffi- for stock watertng purposes. The grazing season lasts from June 15 to October sL during this period of tour and half months the animals do not get a drink.
 Under such 'condttions, however. the sheep hawe done extremely well. and last years lambs from this range had an average weight at the close of the season of 6s pounds on the Chicago market, which was rather above the normal weight from that vicinity.
 In one area on the Targhee forest in Idaho sheep get water only twice during the four-months summer graz Ing season. There is no water on the range. but the sheep are driven to a nearby stream lower down the noun tain side. Lambs from this range weighed 65 pounds on the Chicago

SCRAP BOOK FOR TO-DAY


 One Of the centers of interest today ed at Gettysburg battlefield will be the Jenny Wade monument It was just half a century ago today that Jenny Wade. a young girl, was engaged in making bread to feed the Union sol- dfers, when a bullet came through the open kitchen door and struck her, ,caus- ing instant death. So far as known, she was the only woman killed dur ing the whole of the strife between North and South A beautiful monu- ment in the Gettysburg cemetery com memorates her name and fame. On 1t is inscribed the epitapb:
 "Jenny Wade, aged 20 years, 2 months. Killed, July g. 1888, while making bread for the Union soldiers
 The memorial was erected by the Woman's Relief Corps of Iowa, and has long been an object of sympathet- ic interest to visitors. The little cot tage in the village where she was shot down by stray bullet is also a center of interest.
 But if Jenny Wade was the only woman slain in that desperate con dict at Gettysburg half century ago, she was not the only one to suffer. Tn every part of the North and South women wept at tidings from Gettys- burg, and incurred the loss Of hus- OdnQS, 4OVGTHs T9InGTS. OEOL1AS1S anu sons. Among the hundreds of statues scattered over the hills and fields of Gettysburg, not the least appealing are those figures inr bronze of sorrowing women weeping over their dead
 Jenny Wade died like a soldier in the service of her country Her fate, sad and pathetic as 1t was. is doubt less env1ed by some women who still live, and to whom, despite the lapse of half a century, the name Of Gettys- burg Is still fraught with grief and horror.

ical story, The Yellow Wallpaper is perhaps the most powerful literary presentation ever made of the ir1f1u- ence of environment on a morbid
 mind, and is worthy of the pen of a de Maupassant. In 1900 the author assumed her present name by her mar riage to G. Fl. Gilman, a New York lawyer.
 Mrs Gilman is a great-granddaug ter of Lyman Beecher, the grand niece of Harriet Beecher Stowe and Henry ward Beecher, and the daugh- ter of Frederick Beecher Perkins, an author, and for many years Hbrar- Ian in San Francisco.
 By reason of numerous lecture trips through Europe, and long residence in England, Mrs. Gilman has become fa,- miliar with the women of many coun- tries. and her comparisons are inter esting. She says:
 The broadest and most conspicu- ous difference between English and American women of fairly parallel circumstances Is the superiority of the Englishwonan in her Knowledge of and interest in the affairs of the nation, and, for that matter. of the world. She knows more, cares more, and talks with more ability in regard to public matters.
