GIRLS AND BOYS MENTALITY
Female Begins Early to Develop 1t
Scientists Say, But She Stops
Before the Boy.

1T may be taken as an accepted
fact" writes German scientist, that
the average age of speech-develop-
ment Is several months earlier in the
girl than in the boy. While it is not
very rare to find a year-and-a-half-old
boy still unable to talk, the develop.
ment of speech HAS made considerable
progress in girls of this age, and in
certain later periods of life her further
advancement is even more obvious.
"At fifteen the male Is generally
only big boy, while the girl is often
quite a finished young girl. But her
mental development not only begins
earlier, but stops earlier. 1t is prob.
ably not to be doubted that in the
young woman of twenty-five all the
powers of the intellect which are capa
BILE of developing are at least indi
Gated and formed and generally al
ready quite well established. The
twenty-five-year-old youth, on the 9th
er hand, is still full of unguessed pos
sibilities for the future. The excep
tions that occur do not vitiate the av
erage law that the comparative cycle
of development is relatively smaller In
the girl. In women the conservative
tendencies natural to their sex are
most marked; in men, the progressive
tendencies"

Reading Ones Own Books.

Cultivated men and women have al.
ways counted good books among their
most valued possessions, and one can
not believe that this taste can be sac
rificed without definite loss to our
civilization. The spoken word can
never supplant the written word; and,
in fact, the present tendency is all to-
ward substituting print for speech.
Nor can reading in public places take
the place of reading ones own books
In the quiet of ones home. Books
that are owned wait patiently on the
readers leisure; and to have just the
book one wants, when one wants 1t, Is
and must remain one of the supreme
Injuries of a cultivated life.
Books, too, when personally owned,
gather around themselves wealth OF
personal associations. The very bind
ing, paper and title-page recall the
conditions under which the book came
into our possession. As we open Its
pages we remember the last time we
read 1t, the place and circumstances
and the people with whom we dis
cussed it. Books have personality
and they must always remain the
warm friends of their possessors.-
Atlantic Monthly.

When will you be here? :. All right
good-by!"
Mrs. Royalton and Rosamund still
sat as II entranced, but Carolyn Dallys
rose impatiently now, and glanced
about, as II in search of an excuse. The
room was tensely charged with cleo
tricity. 1t was evident that in another
minute the explosion must come. But,
first, how to get rid of this important,
busy little Miss Fisher?
Flodie herself answered the UNI
voiced question. Wasn't she as desir-
GUS as any of them to bring the thing
to a head? Yes; SO she must fly and
leave the field of battle clear. Still
smiling, she disappeared into the
stockroom. She left the door ajar.
Mrs. Royalton rose, with self-con-
scious smile. well, Carolyn" she said,
Il suppose I'll have to tell you, now.
1t Is most unfortunate that Miss Fisher
wasn't more discreet in her converse
ton. But SO long as she has let tho
cat out Of the bag, l might as well in
form you that the ring she was talk
ing to Hall about Is for this fnger!"
She held up her left hand, her thumb
pointing to her third finger.
Carolyn, with a whoop, fell into
Rosamund's arms, and the two laughed
until they cried.
Mrs. Royalton stared as IL they had
suddenly gone mad. Then she ex.
claimed angrily, "I'd like to know what
there is to laugh at! | don't see any
thing particularly amusing in the fact
that I'm going to marry Hall Boni.

Miss Gale, do you see anything funny
in it,"
Funny! It's scream!" Rosamunt
shouted with mirth. Who'll be the

"Oh, the more the merrier!" CRIED
Carolyn.
Rena Royalton drew herself W
proudly. Il think you're exceedingl,
impertinent!" she replied.
Carolyn dried her eyes on a lac'
handkerchief. "Rena," she said, still
giggling, Il don't know whether it's to-
true to be funny, or too funny to b.
true But you ought to be in on thi
joke, really, my Gear. 1t will inter
est you strangely"
well, don't call 1t joke. It's n

"Say, Miss Gale" Carolyn turne'
confidentially, "d'you know, we ough

JUST WHAT is A GENTLEMAN?
Many Definitions Given, But None
That Can Be Said to Be
Satisfactory.

From more or less successful efforts
to define the snob and the bore there
is only step to the more or less un-
successful efforts to define the gentle
man, says writer in Scribner's. The
bore and the snob are accusable crea-
lures, plain to the view of all men and
reducible to formula. But the gentle
man is intangible and ultimately indie
Unable. The bore and the snob are re-
vealed by their words and their deeds,
whereas the gentleman can prove him
self only by his spirit. 1t is no won
der that the multitudinous definitions
shot at this shining mark have failed
to pierce the center, even If one or an
other may now and again have hit the
margin of the target.
One of the more obvious reasons for
this diversity Of definition is that the
word has changed its meaning and Is
likely to keep on changing it as We ad-
vance in civilization. Once upon a
time it had clear and sharply limited
legal content recorded by Blackstone
in his commentaries; the great lawyer
| defined gentleman as one who bears
coat armor, the grant Of which adds
| gentility to ones family" This is still
a fit definition of the gentilhomme in
France; it is probably not now fully

area. All the navies in the world
could float on its surface, and its
safety against attack may be judged
from the fact that the only entrance
to it is through narrow neck three
miles long and hardly more than wide
enough to allow vessels to pass
through.
The naval station occupies square
mile Of land, and is one of the most
completely equipped in the world. 1t
is provided with a first-class ship-re-
pairing outfit, including the largest
dry dock in the world, and has q
coaling plant that cost nearly $1,000
600, with a magazine for naval am
munition that tapped Uncle Sans
pocketbook for 100000. There are
five tanks for fuel oil, four Of them
containing 100000 gallons each, and
one with a capacity Of 100000 gal
lons-such provision being necessary
in view of the fact that our newest
dreadnaughts burn oil fuel.
Such Notifications, SO manned, with
a strong navy, will afford San Fran
cisco even more protection than guns
mounted about the Golden Gate.

AGE Of Oysters.

As the result of examinations Of the
surface lamellae of the shells of over
six hundred oysters of known age, and
of various ages from eighteen months
to six years, made by Miss A. L. Mas
sy, and noted in the Scientific Investi-
cations" under the section on fisher
les. the following conditions prevailed
as to the relation between age and the
number of surface lamellae, or growth
rings. Miss Massey states that an oys-
ter OF eighteen months or two sum-
mers appears to possess at least two
rings, but may have as many as five;
one of three summers has at least
two rings, but may have six. A four
year-old oyster may have only three
rings, or may possess seven or eight

CHILDREN HURT By NOISES
How the Little Ones Suffer From the
Various Connections Of .
Bio City.

Very few mothers realize how ex-
tremely sensitive young children are
to noises of all kinds and how much
Of their "naughtiness" is due to nerv-
GUS irritation set up by all the house
hold noises of the day.
To q certain extent every woman
who has the care of children realizes
this fact. When the baby goes to bed
all the house is hushed in order that
it may sleep.
But once the child awakens no con-
si0eraticn is shown to its tender
nerves, and the evil consequences to
the child's health are often very seri-
Gus and cling to it all through life.
Doctors are always insisting on this
paramount characteristic of the young
child-its great nervous sensibility.
And any mother who observes the
child when a door is banged, dog
barks or a street trader shouts will
notice its distress. At every bang or
other sudden noise there is a nervous,
frightened start.
The result Of days noise of all
kinds to young children, especially II
they are delicate, is state Of nervous
| depression and irritation.
| This is commonly mistaken for tenn
per and naughtiness, but it is real
nervous illness. They not only be
come petulant, but their appetite fails
and their digestion Is thrown into dis

The past lew years Lne Uultou
States government has spent over
$13,000,000 in making Pearl Har-
Dor able to offer adequate re-
sistance to attack from land and
sea. The work is nearly finished
now; and when it is done the United
States will possess as formidable and
as important fortress as any in the
world.
Before the steamer approaching
Honolulu from the southwest Is mag
nificent concave sweep of land rising
above the clear blue of the Pacific, and
covered with gigantic trees. Backing
up the whole is long ridge Of rugged
and tumbled rock. In the center OF
this Titanic sweep nests Honolulu.
To the east, the sweep is terminated
by tumbled mass of rock-an ex-
tinct volcano, known as Diamond
Head. To the west the view ends
with a frowning mountainside that
hides a beautiful little lake which
nestles behind it, reached from the
sea through a narrow passage, like the
neck of bottle-the lake named
Pearl Harbor. Nowhere in the world
is scene more beautiful and impress
sive.
Death in the Midst Of Beauty.
Uncle Sans task has been to con-
ceal, in this wonderful Is miles Of
beauty, death-the flying, screaming,
hellish death of flame and steel and

tense mortars, and the volcano may
renew its activity with the eruptions
of flame and steel that belch forth
from the molten interiors of these
squat, grim engines of destruction.
Hidden among the green of the trees
are cement pits, from the depths Of
which long, trim, coast-defense rifles
rise and peer about, seeking marks fol
the tons of steel and guncotton they
are hiding. Beneath, keeping com
pany with the fishes, are hundreds O.
steel cans the size of barrels, and con
tanning high explosives, ready to de
stroy any vessel riding above then
when the man on shore chooses tt
launch their power.
ImpregnabIs Defenses.
The Notifications extend along tn,
coast for distance of 15 miles, from
the volcano on the east of Honolulu,
to Pearl Harbor, nine miles west o
the CITY, and consist mainly of sc
r1es of powerful batteries occupying &c
ment-lined emplacements beneath thu
level of the ground. At the base o
the volcano is group OF such en-
placements called Fort Rugger; at tn
other end, guarding the entrance t
Pearl Harbor, is Fort Komehamehs
