People who are too stingy to
subscribe for their home PAPER
ought not to bother their neigh
bors about borrowing. We make
mention of this for the protec-
ton of our subscribers some one
or more of whom says to us every
week: "Please get Mr.. or Mrs.
to subscribe for the paper
we are getting tired of them
coming and getting ours" You
borrowers of newspapers, you
may continue to secure the loan
of your neighbors paper. but
remember he or she does not
want you to have it, because
they are paying for 1t for them
selves and not for yen. Either
subscribe for your home paper
or don't read, because the fellow
who does it that way will never
see very much that the paper
has good to say about him.

TRAINED IN HOUSEHOLD WORK
German institution Teaches Girls
Domestic Service, and Finds Great
Demand for Graduates.

Berlin has an institution, founded
about two years ago by a woman.
Tho object of the Sister School," as
1t is called, Is to train welleducated
girls for domestic service. The stu
dents are generally daughters of pro-
fessional~ men, and tho curriculum
comprises cookery, housework, the
care of children, and needlework
When application is made for tho SER
vices of SISTER" the matron, or
some other woman connected with
the school, calls upon the applicant,
forms an opinion of the situation"
and arranges terms Each sister
must be allowed free afternoon
every week, one Sunday every other
week from four o'clock, and fort
nights holiday in tho year. Six
weeks notice is required ON each part
The salaries paid range from $3.50
to $3.50 month, with, of course,
board and lodging. Sisters wear a
brown uniform, are treated as social
equals, are not required to take
meals with other servants, and are ad-
dressed as Sister Marie" Sister
Hedwig." etc. The demand for their
services rs 30 great that tho head OF
the Sister school declares that she
could place 800 girls a year. instead of
so. and similar institutions are about
to be established in other German
towns.

Tons Of Iron Lost In Rust.

Ono large railroad system suffers a
loss of more than eighteen tons OF
metal daily, due solely to the effect
of rust Thus far the only known
preventive is to keep the metal sur
face always covered with q suitable
paint. Some idea of the costllness Of
this remedy, however, may be gained
from the fact that It requires about
$4,000 annually to paint one large
railway bridge alone. A typical case
Of this kind is the Brooklyn bridge.
upon which a corps Of painters arc
constantly employed, as the weather
makes r0painting OF one end OF this
large structure necessary before tho
workers have reached tho other. Al
though experiments have domonBtrat.

gen does not rust, and that some acid,
especially carbonic acid, is necessary

OF manufacturing rustless steel and

FIRST OF WORLDS MOSQUES
Interesting Legends That Are Con-
nected With Famous st. Sophia In
constantinople.

Famed throughout the world for its
beautiful architecture. the mosque Of
St. Sophia has a legend that acquires
sudden interest now" writes n Euro
pean correspondent of the Daily
News. Originally tho mosque was
Christian church. The priest
was In the act of celebrating mass on
that memorable goth OF May, 1853.
when Sultan Mohammed rode his
horse into the sacred edifice, follow
ed by his victorious Turks. and be.
gan Strengthening the Christians. Tho
priest fed from the altar, passing
through n small door behind It, but
when the pursuing Turks reached tho
spot, intending to follow the priest,
they found but blank wall-the door
had disappeared, and all traces OF tho
fugitive were gone. But the story
goes that when once again tho mosque
Of St Sophia becomes n Christian
place Of worship, the wall will open of
its own accord and reveal tho secret
door out OF which the aged priest will
step forth to conclude the celebration
of the mass at the altar.
Another legend, reoounted even by
the Turks themselves, tells OF two
monumental candles built into the
apse OF the mosque. On every high
Christian festival these candles are
supernaturally set alIght When these
candles are quite burnt down into their
sockets the Turkish domination will
be over, and the mosque OF holy wis

more.
