A Woman Scientist

Among distinguished women who
have helped to shed light upon abb
struse subjects was Caroline Lucre-
tia Herschel, the noted astronomer.
She was the daughter of musician
of Hanover. Her early education was
designed to lead to a musical career.
She accompanied her brother, William,
after the illustrious Sir William
Herschel-to England. Brother and
sister soon turned their attention to
astronomy, and in 179S Caroline pub
lished a Catalogue of Stars" Until
Sir William died, in 1922, she was con-
tent for the most part to be known
only as his assistant, but later she en-.
gagged in many original and independ-
ent Investigations. She devoted spe-
cial attention to the discovery of
comets, and claimed priority in the
discovery of at least five.

The Whisky Insurreotinn.

In the last years of Washington's
administration, the people of west
ern Pennsylvania started uprisings
against the power of the excise au-
thorlties, known at the time as the
whisky insurrection." About the mid
die of 1899 General Neville, the chief
excise officer, was attacked in his
house and in other places valuable
property was destroyed. There was
a tumultuous meeting of the people at
Washington, Pa, and rally of armed
men at Braddock's field. The upris-
ings were brought to an end through
the vigorous efforts of James Ross, a
prominent lawyer of Washington, Pa,
who had been elected few months
before to the United States senate to
fill out the unexpired term of Albert
Gallatin.

A Famous Hymn.

Mrs. Sarah Flower Adams wrote the
famous hymn, Nearer My God, to
Thee" Mrs Adams was an Englishwom-
an, born in 1905. She was a writer of
note in the periodicals of the time, and
she also composed a catechism for
children which was published in 1S45.
Just at what time and under what
circumstances the hymn was written
is not known. 1t was first published
in 1841. but the author did not live to
know the fame the authorship brought
her. She died at forty-four. and since
that time the lines she penned have
sung themselves into the hearts of un-
told millions the world over.

Probably the reason why Ed Sperry
so carefully avoided Dolly Kemper
was because his mother had held her
up to him as a pink Of perfection. 1t
has never been quite satisfactorily
explained why the young male Of the
species invariably SHES at the term "a
good girl" and so invariably demands
1t in the same girl after they are m0E-
ried.
At any rate, Mrs. Sperry saw the un-
selfishness, klndliness and clear head
or Dolly Kemper, and made the un-
tactful mistake of telling her son
about 1t, and suggesting that he pay
the young lady some attention when
Mrs. Sperry invited her to tea. Prob
ably If she had not so insistently en-
larged on her good qualities, her son
might have found out for himself
that Dolly could be jolly company,
even If she was "good."
"Yes, mother" he rejoined on one
of these occasions, mo doubt she's
pattern young lady; she'd have TO be
to average up the family. That broth
er of hers is rapid enough to bring
down the balance. What he doesn't
know about this little town of New
York wouldn't run two lines In 'Racy
Relics"
"Yes, l know" said Mrs. Sperry,
thoughtfully. "DOlly never says much,
but l know what a grief 1t is to her,
and he is breaking his mothers heart"
Joe hasn't done anything you'd call
actually vicious. He's more like what
the southern darkies call 'trifln'.' He
has lost two positions through having
too many good times staying all
night at cafes, and drinking too much.
He probably won't keep the one he
has another month"
Mrs. Sperry shook her head sadly,
and looked with equal satisfaction and
gratitude at her own son, who took
his pleasures more sparingly, and not
only kept his position in a large mer-
camille firm, but had Just received his
second advance in salary.
A short time after this young Sperry
was one evening walking down "the
great white way" with the rather
vague intention of dropping into one of
the theaters or the movies" The daz-
zling electric displays lit up the gay
throng Of pleasure-seekers hurrying
or sauntering in opposite directions.
