The Horoscope
TUESDAY APRIL 6.

The stars are most auspiciously
placed for a particularly lively ana
pleasant day. both as regards bus
mess and all social domestic and
affectional matters. In the latter.
particularly, will the fates be found
propitious. as Venus is trined by
Luna. and the gifts and graces born
Of this are enhanced by the juXtapo-
sition of Jupiter with Nenus-which
the sages interpret as auguries for
love and marriage. All these inter
ests should flourish. increase and
prosper. and under the trine OF
Moon and Mercury a similar good
fortune should be visited upon all
mercantile and professional matters
particularly those relating TO writ
ings. publishings and so forth. II Is
an excellent time for making con-
tracts and signing papers.
Those whose birthday Il is are
promised a happy and prosperous
year. with increase Of money and
business. a child born on this day
will be popular, weu-conducted and
fortunate generally.

HETvTN

The simplest little name of Het-
~. suggestive of pleasant homely
domesticity, has lofty significance.
II is translated to mean "a star"
Perhaps. after ali, the steady bright
insistence of the stars may have
some psychic reference 20 the gen.
orally accepted conception OF the
Hettys of the world.
Hetty is in reality the endearing
diminutive given TO the most dig
nified Hester, but so cOldly austere
is the latter name that Hetty has
come to be bestowed in baptism with
complete disregard for its proper
predecessor.
Hetty came into existence by a
rather complicated evolution
through several languages The fair
daughter of the tribe OF Benjamin
whose royalty insured her peoples
safety, was called AtOssa. Her name
in tht Persian language-quite UNI
pronounce ble-was combined with
the Latin word for star stella" and
from the union, came the modern
estrella In the Septuagint, the
Romans make this word Hestera or
ESthera
In England. the "a" was dropped
and Hester and Esther were be-
slowed as feminine names The lat
ter became ESsie when the newt
able diminutive was forthcoming,
and Hester soon gave place 10 Hetty
though the original form was US
ually preserved on the church reg
listers. Ii was for America 10 gay
~ discard the proper appellative
and substitute Hetty for all occa-
sions.
Hetty's tallismanic stone is the
turquoise. which promises her
steadfast friends. true love, and
freedom from danger. II she sees
the new moon reflect In the stone,
she will have rare good luck. Sat
urday is her lucky day and her
lucky number.

their four months old heir.
George was very much surprised

Mrs. Platt said she didn't know

 The expense of the experiment would be nominal if compared to the beneficial results that might be con- fidently expected. It would put an end to haphazerd administration and substitute sane business management thereby eliminating the vast of money occassioned in the past through unintelligent bureau admins tration. If Congress can be prevailed upon to grant the expense of sending the commission-provi however, that this was we'll selected. Politics should, of course, have no part in this selection, and the method suggested at this time is that the commissioners should be appointed on the nomina- tion of the commercial bodies of the Territory. By this method there would be reasonable certainty that only men who had the real interests of the Territory at heart would be chosen.

Firearms are said to have been first
used in European warfare In the Four
teenth century. The first weapon of
this kind that passed into general use
was the hand gun, which was of very
rude construction. 1t consisted of a
simple iron or brass tube. fixed In
straight stock of wood. An improve
ment was made in the reign of Ed
ward Nv, when a cock was affixed to
the hand gun to hold the match which
was brought down to the printing by
a trigger, whence the term matchbox.
Then came the wheel lock and about
1885 the firelock or flintlock. 1t was
the weapon of Marlborough's and
Wellington's armies and became known
as Brown >Bess." In 1884 the per
cussion cap, invented by Rev. Alexan-
der John Forsyth, was successfully
tested at Woolwich In 1889 the flint
lock muskets were altered to suit the
percussion cap. The percussion mus.
ket of 1912 continued in use In the
British army until partially superseded
by the MIME rifle In 1851, and alto
gether by the Enfield rife In 1855.
and since then the breeeh-loading.
magazine rifle has been perfected.

HIS DEBT TO ESKIMO WOMEN
Yukon Saved by the "Muck-
locks They Had Made

That Hudson Stuck. noted archdea-
con of the Yukon, who died recently.
should for 10 years have escaped the
death from freezing and hardships
which he risked hundred times a
year. may have been due to special
protection of Providence, but in one
case at least, he owed his life TO the
strong teeth Of Eskimo women, accord
ing to a Seattle dispatch
He told this story himself the last
time. he was in the States. 1t hap
pened just when the first thaws were
setting In one spring An Indian run
ner brought him an urgent call for
help from the missions on the Kuyu.
kuk, far north of the Yukon, a call
that could not wait until the rivers
we're open and the days of dangerous
travel past
So the arehdeacon started from
Fairbanks on foot, with one Indian
and a dog train. They followed the
Tanana to the Yukon, reaching the
great river at shutdown. and striking
out across the ice on sharp diagonal
which heightened the crossing to FIVE
miles. Tt had been biting cold under
the lee of the shore, and on the un-
sheltered river DR.. Sucks thermome-
ter registered so degrees below zero.
Four miles of ice were behind them
when trouble began. First there was
a vast groaning of the river and thin
cracks zigzagged away from them in
all directions.
Experience told them that the strong
currents below the northern bank
were at work again after their win
ter's rest. As they turned back to-
ward the stronger footing behind
them. the ice broke sharply at their
feet, and before they could throw
themselves fiat they were wet to the
thighs in the chilly water.
Fortunately one section of the ice
crust within reach held firm and they
were on their feet again In an instant
knowing that their only hope against
death by freezing In that terrific cold
was four-mile race to shore and a
brushwood fire.
"We could never have won that
race" concluded the archdeacon. eff
dry feet and the circulation pumped
Ia them by the tremendous effort of
our running hadn't helped us. Other
wise we should have frozen to death
on the first mile. Our lives were saved
by our leather mucklocks, the high
native boots whose seams have been
chewed to a watertight pulp between
the teeth Of the Eskimo wonaen."

Edmund Burke, the celebrated Brit
ish statesman whom every high school
boy has occasion TO know through his
famous speech on Cancellation, was a
believer In the hot water theory of
therapeutics. For whenever Burke
found himself indlsposed he ordered
a kettle of hot water to be kept boil
ing, of which he drank large quanti-
ties, sometimes as much as four or
nve quarts In morning, without any
mixture or infusion, according to an
old copy of the Dublin University
Magazine. He would pour out about
pint as bot as he could bear. and
drink 1t with spoon, as IL IT had
been soup. Warm water. he said
would relaa and nauseate. but hot
water was the finest stimulant and
most powerful restorative In the
world. He not only partook of this
sovereign remedy himself, but pre-
scribed 1t to every patient that would
listen to him at all-Kansas City Star.
