EAGER for an Education.

From the Portland Oregonian.
Seattle. Wash.-Intent upon ecu
ing an education in American colleges.
two Filipino girls ran away from their
native homes and travelled third class
to the United States on a japanese
steamship, landing in Seattle a short
time ago.
Senorita Cordero and Senorita Orosa
are their names. Miss Cordero was de-
MED admission to the state university,
but Is studying English in high school
and hopes to advance far enough soon
so that she may take the entrance ex-
animation.
On the campus the girls present a
strange appearance, for they have not
forsaken their native costume. Their
dresses are of native material and have
long trains attached which are pinned
up while on the street. but are allowed
to hang when in the house or class
room.
Miss Orosa has entered the pharmacy
college as a special student and plans

ORCHID ICE CREAM COMMON
1t Does Not Bear That A~rlstocratir
Title but Goes by the Very Pie
beIan Name of Vanilla.

Very few Of us would even think of
ordering orchid ice cream without q
little tremor of the pocket book, for
everyone knows that the orchid is the
most expensive Of flowers. But there
are thousands Of persons who eat or
child ice cream daily. Although they
probably have not been aware of the
distinction, it is none the less a fact.
OF course the ice cream is not ordered
by the a%rlstocratic name of orchid.
On the contrary, it bears the very pie
beian name Of vanilla.
There are said to be no less than
10000 varieties Of orchid scattered
owe the earth. All Of them have the
peculiar artificial beauty and the
haunting odor that seems inseparable
from this flower, which looks almost
as though it were a product of antun-
healthy condition in nature. OF all
these 10000 varieties, only one has any
practical value. and that is the one
from which vanilla comes. The plant
grows abundantly In South and Cen
trail America. and has been transplant
ed to other tropical countries, where
it is now tlourishing.

Here's Frederick lockwood. New Eng
lander by birth and a resident of Bo-
gotta, Colombia, for IS years as consul,
newspaper correspondent and general

He landed in this country a few days
ago, perfectly tickled to death, as the
girls say, to get back to the U. S. A.
But did he fall down and kiss the
shores or offer burnt sacrifices?
He did not.
He had been longing for a good
sized dish of corned beef hash ever
since he went to Colombia Is years
ago. He had been saving up a corned
beef hash appetite all these years. So
when he landed the first thing he did
was to go to a restaurant and order
five portions Of his favorite food.-Earl

Raineoats for Lambs.

From the Popular Science Monthly.
The greatest obstacle which stands in
the way of providing very young or new
born lambs with artificial coats or blank
cts to protect them from sudden changes
in temperature or from storms until their

terial, is likely to destroy the lamb odor
by which the mother recognizes her off
spring.
"A blanket has been invented which
leaves enough of the lambs neck and
body exposed to satisfy the mother as
to the lambs identity. and at the same
time overs the vital portions Of the body
snugly. 1t is composed of a waterproof
outer canvas. with a soft wooden lining.

CHAPTER XIV.
A WORD OF

Wherefore it happened that Dan
Webster, searching promenade
and saloon and library, that after
noon, mounting to the boat deck,
descending to the lower deck,
peeplng into every nook and cor
ner where passengers of the sec
ond class were permitted to pene-
trate, looked in vain for Kasia
Ward. Nor was her father any
where to be seen. At last, per-
ceiving the curious glances shot in
his direction, and having stumbled
for the third time over the same
outstretched pair of feet, he
mounted gloomily to the boat deck
and sat down to think it out.
The weather continued fine and
the sea smooth, so that it was alb
surd to suppose that either of
them was I'LL and that they should
keep to their stateroom on such an
afternoon for any other reason or
even for that one, was more alb
surd still. Perhaps, if they were

The thought brought him sud
den relief. That explained it! They
had some work they were doing
together. Perhaps Kasia acted as
her fathers secretary, and even
now was writing to his dictation.
She had said that he was engaged
in some gigantic project, the ma
lture Of whichiDan understood but
dimly-a plan for the disarma-
ment of the world or something
like that. As he remembered them
here in the cold light of day, her
words Of the night before seemed
more than a little fantastic; but
perhaps he had not understood, or
perhaps she had spoken figllrative-

the hollow of his hand--that, Of
course, was fignrative. And,

would be interesting to know more
