Democratic Triumph.

The walking-stick, as we know II at
present, gained its popularity in
France during the eighteenth century,
when it came to be carried by rich
people who had no right to wear a
sword. The dandies twirled a thin
bamboo cane in their fingers, but the
great financiers-who had consider
able influence at that time-made the
stick fashionable addition to their
wardrobe, and sometimes paid as
much as 10000 crowns for one. This
carrying of a walking-stick was re-
garded as a democratic triumph over

GIRL A SKILLED ENGINEER
Young EnaIIshwoman Said TO Show
Remarkable Proficiency In Pro
fession She Has Taken Up.

One Of the most remarkable things
in the replacing of mems labor by
women's which is going on today is
the great popularity which mechan-
ical work seems to be winning for
itself among women. From Ireland
comes the account of young girl
just twenty years old, who is doing
the work of skilled electrical engi-
neer. She is Miss May Trail, the
daughter of Mr.. William T. Trail,
c. F., a well-known engineer, who
was the constructor of one Of the
first electric tramways-the Giants
Causeway and Portrush Electric
tramway-which was opened in 1888.
Miss Trail, who studied horticul-
ture at Studley college, Warwick
shire, exhibited her gift for mechan-
les while still a student, and as a re-
suit was made chauffeur of the col
lege motor lorry. When this was
purchased by the government she
drove it from Studley to London,
and subsequently was placed on the
staff of the college in full charge of
the electric light and power installa-
ton. She has set free a man who is
now making torpedoes.

WRITER MUST HAVE STIMULUS
Distinction 10 Pointed Out Between
the InterprctatIve and the
Creative Artist.

This dogma that ideas have no
place in novel is poisonous nom
sense that ought not to be spread in
a society where the mind is unnatu-
rally receptive because it is fatigued
by the contemplation of horror. An
artist who is inspired to creation not
by ideas but only by the stimulus of
wild external adventure is an inter-
pretative rather than a creative
artist. AS a dancer must wait for
the music, so he must wait for loud
events to give a tune for the move
ments of his imagination. AS soon
as Rudyard Kipling no longer saw
from his window little brown men
walking light and sinister like car
nivores in the molten Indian sun
light, but looked out instead on the
pump and three geese on the village
green, his mind refused to dance. 1t
is long since Joseph Conrad left the
sea, and his imagination no longer
gets its rhythm from the storms. But
the man in whose brain ideas circle
upwards to the truth has the rhythm
of their flight and the adventure of
their quest perpetually within him.
They are visitants that every artist
must harbor if he wants to be per-
manently in communion with the
mind of the world.-The New Re.
