Vicissitudes Of Warsaw.

No city in Europe has known so
many changes Of masters as Warsaw.
Founded about the year $50, it was
capital Of the independent dukedom Of
Maz0via until the fifteenth century,
when it was annexed by Poland. In
the seventeenth century its possession
was commended for by Sweden, Rus
STA, Austria and Brandenburg, until,
In 1764 Russia practically annexed 1t.
In 1875 the city was handed over to
Prussia, but Napoleon occupied it In
1906, and at the peace Of Tilsit War
saw was proclaimed an independent
duchy. In 1909 the Austrians seized
the city, but lost it again, and after
another brief spell of independence
the city passed finally to Russia In
1879 London Chronicle.

WOMEN OF EUROPE.
An italian Critic Says Those Of Spain
Are the Most Beautiful.

Are the Most Beautiful.
A celebrated italian writer Of Flor
ence has been favoring the world with
his opinion of some Of the women of
Europe. He considers only four ma
tons, and of these he selects Spain as
most worthy Of the crown for feminine
beauty. He says:
1.-THE Spanish woman is bewitchingly
beautiful. She has small hands and
feet and large eyes like the open win
dows Of sunburnt marble palace, a
figure full Of grace and life and long,
dark, wavy hair. She is very religious,
very ignorant, very jealous, very SEN
sitive and very proud"
OF the British woman he says: "Her
hair is like gold. She has heavenly eyes.
peachlike complexion, a delicately
formed nose and good teeth. She is
reserved, very active and generally a
slave to etiquette"
AS to the Frenchwoman he is less
complimentary. It is thus that he de-
scribes her: "She is a cat and SER
pent, palm and a violet, and when
she Is not pretty she Is charming. She
is amiable, a dreadful coquette and
generally false"
His summary of the Russian woman
Is that she is ''of an oriental type which
had been prematurely transported into
Europe. In her are combined the ex-
traordinary charms of a savage and the
civilized woman" -Pearson's

Some Valuable Pearls.

OF an the articles Of luxury known
to the Romans pearls were most val
ued. They were worn by all classes.
The famous pearl earrings which be-
l0nged to Cleopatra are said to have
been worth $4,000, and julius Caesar
presented the mother of Brutus with
a pearl for which he paid $4,000. It
has been said that one Of the reasons
why julius Caesar invaded Britain
was the wish to become master of the
pearls which were supposed to abound
there, surmise incorrect, for few
pearls Of value have been found In
Great Britain.

ARTIFICIAL LIMBS.
Perfection to Which the Mechanical
Arm Has Been Brought.

Perfection to Which the Mechanical
Arm Has Been Brought.
They are making artificial limbs with
such perfection today that technical
observer who is also an enthusiastic
baseball "fan' declares that he would
not be surprised to see in the not far dis
tant future some wooden armed pitcher
making a good record. What is known
as '.glass arm would be effectively su-
perseded by wooden arm"
Though this is a daring leap of the
Imagination, which, however, need not
worry the perfectly good armed pitch
ers Of the big leagues, still some Of the
things that can be done with artificial
arms are simply amazing. Here you
see man lighting cigar and with Q
naturalness of action and pose which
would deceive the casual observer.
The mechanism is controlled by GER
tain motions Of the stump Of the flesh
and blood arm, and no little knack Is
necessary to the successful working of
the artificial member, and yet withal
1t Is not very difficult to acquire.
1t is said that the man who is light
ing his big cigar can pick pin from
the floor without difficulty, but it is
not on record that he can give the
pep" to a ball SO that it will speed
by the batter like a projectile from a
high powered gun As a matter of
fact, he is thoroughly satisfied with
the many very necessary things that
can be done with the mechanical arm
without venturing afar into the luxu-
ries and excitement Of outdoor sport.
