Wife's Faith in Columbus

If it be true that there is a woman
in the background of every notable
achievement, there seems to be justif1-
cation in calling Dona Felipa, the wife
Of Christopher Columbus, that influ-
ence in the life of the man who was
later to discover the Western world.
When Columbus talked to her about
his exploration enthusiasts, she was
sympathetic and his ambitions appear
to have found grateful nurture at
their fireside. There is a tale of how
Dona Isabella, Columbus mother-in-
law, produced an old box containing
maps and s-piously-kept relies of
her husbands. 1t may be that some
thing found in this box prompted in
Columbus the conception, later to be-
come flaming article Of faith, of a
land beyond the horizon.-New York

in any State in the eighteen years
since the work was started under the
administration of the late Governor
Crothers, and very large proportion
of this vast work has been done under
the personal supervision of Mr.. Mack
all.
At times The Marylander has not
hesitated to criticize his plans and
methods of operation, but it has never
criticized his ability and efficiency.
That he deserves more credit than he
has received from the public at large,
is beyond question. That he has been
hampered and restricted by local
rivalries and local jealousies and ig-
norance, is also beyond question, but
despite all these handicaps he has
gone on with his plans, and should he
be allowed to carry them out to a con-
clusion, the benefit to the transporta-
ton facilities furnished by Maryland
will be beyond calculation, and it will
be a shame and disgrace to the
General Assembly should it permit a
few truck owners in Baltimore City
to prevent the enactment, or at least,
vitiate, the proposed laws which will
enable the Commissioner to continue
what he has undertaken as the out
come of his long experience at the
work.

Woman Accorded High
Rank in Intelligence

That Anatole France had high re-
gard for women may be gathered from
the conversation which took place be-
tween himself and his secretary,
Sander Kemeri, and which is reported
In her book, "Rambles With Anatole
France"
"'The intelligence of the woman Is
very high and she Is ready to go to
all extremes in asserting herself he
says More than the man she Is
aware of the age in which she lives,
because she carries 1t within herself.
In our search for the history of the
past it Is the woman who shows us
the way. 1t Is she who makes us fore
see the future, 1t is the woman, heroic,
sentimental, romantic, emancipated,
independent. She was taken from
Adams breast, near his heart, brought
to life by his ardent desire. How
could she be anything else but his
image? Therefore the womans des-
tiny depends on the man."

WASHINGTON, D. c.. March g.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March g.
The relief over the adjournment of
Congress is genuine and general.
During the last few days of that body
the specter of a possible extra session
fiared before the country for a brief
period. 1t is limited that the posi-
bility of an extra session being made
necessary, operated in a way at least
to expedite business in the closing
hours, despite the filibuster. With
the old Congress out of the way, all
thought and attention is centered on
the opening of the 10th Congress,
which takes place December 5th, of
this year. The new House will or
ganize with Nicholas Longworth as
speaker and with the same chairman
on the most important committees.
Tilson of Connecticut will continue
the headship of Rules. The organi-
cation of the Senate is, frankly, in
doubt. If Smith and Ware are seated
it is generally assumed that the Re-
publicans will organize that body, but
in this connection it can be said that
even if both men are unseated the
Democrats are not as yet making any
positive claims as to what they are
going to be able to do.

Shopping in China

Finding ones way in Chinese cities
has it's difficulties, Capt. Robert Dol
lar, we'll known American steamship
man, once set out to visit a wholesale
store in Chefoo. He describes his eX-
perience as follows:
First we went through a grocery
store into q courtyard containing beds
of flowers and shrubs from there we
followed a crooked alley three feet
wide into another courtyard, then
through another three-foot alley into
a small open square. Bordering this
square was the wholesale establish
ment we were In search of. There IS,
however, nothing unusual in finding
important stores in such obscure To-
calities in that country.

Royal Ear Wiggler

Empress Marie Louise, second wife
of Napoleon 1, used to shake her
ears through some nervous effort, be-
lieving the practice would drive away
wrinkles and make her beautiful.
zone of the greatest pleasures of
the imperial evenings is to watch the
empress turn her ears" wrote Nine
d'Abrantes, one of her ladies of
honor. "This faculty is very extraor
binary and I believe she Is the only
person who possesses it."
Marie Louise often shook her ears
to amuse her friends, but Napoleon
disliked the practice and 1t is said
he slapped his imperial spouse sew
eral times for doing it.

Old Man in Picture
Rather Out of Place

A landscape artist sold a picture to
a wealthy woman. The latter soon
became tired Of it, because, she de-
clared 1t lacked animation. So she
sent for another artist and asked him
to paint man or woman on the road
that ran through the middle of the
painting.
The artist did so, and when he met
the man who had painted the original
work he told him what he had done.
II had the temerity to alter a land
scape of yours the other day." he said.
at was one you sold to Mrs. Jones.
She wanted a figure painted in, so
added an old man walking down the
road?
"Road? What road? There's no
road in that pictured"
why, yes, there Is" said the other.
"a road runs through the middle Of
the canvas
"Why," cried the first artist, indig-
nantly, that's not a road! That's a
river"

Franklin So,D Day of
Woman in Business

Although desiring a quiet life in his
older years, Franklin could not retire.
One political office after another
sought him out He tried his best to
avert the Revolution, and his exami-
nation before the house of commons
in February, 1866, marks the zenith Of
his intellectual powers.
In September, 1776, Franklin was
appointed envoy to France and sailed
soon afterward. Despite his seventy
years, no other American could have
accomplished the things he did. His
reputation had preceded him to
France. Great ladies sought his COM
pany; shopkeepers hung his portrait
on their walls and the rabble wor-
SHIPPED him. Under Franklin's inf1u-
ence, money was loaned the strug-
Cling colonies. He won from France
recognition of the United States and
then the treaty of alliance. This was
his last and most important work.
Biographers maintain that Franklin
more than any other great American
possessed the woman's viewpoint
Some even maintain that his great sue
cesses were achieved because Of this
quality that the great French treaty
might not have been brought about
were it not for the homage paid the
first civilized American by the great
danes of Paris.
Certain 1t is that he was the means
of starting the first American woman
in business, and he was first in a
movement that has changed the pres
ent-day life of 100000 Americans.

Pupils Taught Poisoning

Both boys and girls are taught the
poison arts in the jungle schools, and
at the conclusion Of each school it is
customary to experiment on some
member of the class. At the boys
school the victim usually is some IN
ruly member of the class. At the
girls school, it is some iconoclastic
maiden who has dared voice criticism
of the tribal marriage customs In case
a child dies at either school, its
parents are not apprised of the fact
until after the close of the school,
when the fetish doctor breaks white
bowl in front of their hut.

Traders Made Oun Coins

Mincing lane, London, the center
of the wholesale tea trade, derives its
name from certain tenements there
once owned by the "minchuns," or
nuns, of st. Helen's. There in the
time of the Plantagenets lived a col
ony of Genoese traders called galley
men, because they brought their wines
and other merchandise to Galley
wharf
They were a wealthy and powerful
people and one time issued a silver
coinage of their own These coins,
known as galley half-pence," were
broader than the ordinary English SILL
yer half-pennies, but not so thick and
strong. Their use was prohibited by
an act of parliament in the reign Of
Henry ".

Rich Soil

Two farmers were arguing about the
fertility of the soil of their respective
states.
"Why, the soil Is so rich in my
state" said one, that man with a
peg leg daren't stand still for five
minutes. The wooden leg will grow
roots"
That's nothing" the other farmer
responded. Back where came from
the land is so rich that all the peg
legged men carry hatchets so they can
chop off the twigs that keep sprouting
on account of all the nutritious dust
in the air."-Exchange

Fl. w. L. and the Telephone

1t seems that Henry Wadsworth
Longfellow inaugurated the voice
with-a-smile campaign in connection
with telephone operators No better
proof can be had than the line in "a
Psalm of Life" in which we read
''Tell me not in mournful numbers"
And as for waiting for a number, the
following is given in THE Courtship
of Miles Standish": ''Till some ques-
tioning voice dissolves the spell of
silence" Does it not speak for It,

China Once "Cothoy"

Cathay was the name for China
which Marco Polo brought back with
him from his travels in the Orient.
1t is supposed to have been derived
by him from the Khtah or Khitan,
tribe of medieval conouerors of north
ern China. The term was long ap-
piled by Europeans to the Far East
in general. The only language in
which 1t survives as the customary
name for China is the Russian where
it has the form Khitai.

Miss Sixteen writes:
'Tech" may well say that its
opera is a success. Catherine
Birch, as Phyllis" and Harry
Schonrank as "Strephon," made an
admirable couple and their duets
and dialogues were pleasures.
Hazel Boyce as "Iolanthe," is
to be complimented on her com.
