To mend an umbrella thal tears loose from the rib at the point. wivn you are on the street and needle and thread are not available, close the umbrella and bringing the cloth in po- sition, insert a small hairpin in the hole of the rib, and wind securely around cloth. This “first aid to the injured” is so efficient you will be tempted to leave it permanently.— National Magazine. Attractive to Men. No woman has been heard to rave over the beauties of millinery, but men must have found something alluring in the shapes and colors, especially those samples that are displayed in One Husdred and Twenty-fifth street shops, for one milliner on that thoroughfare has considered it expedient to decor- ate her window with this sign: “Men are requested not to lounge against these windows.,”—New York Times. Plumber Rat. An old story used to go around of a plumber who kept a lot of rats in his shop in a trap, and when he had a call always took one along. The rat was frightened or forced to take . to the drain, and he burrowed through to his liberty in the sewer. Of course, it was not necessary to take the pipes all to pieces, but the big bill came in, anyhow. Rules for Right Living. To be honest in the directest way and virtuous by epitome, be firm unto such principles of goodness as carry in themselves volumes of instruction and may abridge thy labor. So may we have all in a few, and the law and the prophets in a rule, the sacred writ in stenography, and the scriptures in a nut-shell.—Sir Thomas Browne. Busy Embroiderers. As early as 1773 oiver 6,000 women were engaged in stitching the fine em- broideries which made St. Gall fa- mous even in those early days. The number had increased by the begin- ning of 1800 to 30,000, the industry baving extended to Baden, Wurtem- burg, Bavaria, western Austria and ali the country about Lake Constance. Look to the Future. Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can, tomorrow is the new day; begin it well and serenely, with too high a spirit to be cumbered by the past.—Emerson. Easy Method of Making Salt. The process of making salt at the springs in Salinas, Mexico, is very simple. The water, which contains 4 to 7 per cent. salt, is pumped into tanks; it is then evaporated to 25 to 28 per cent., beginning to crystallize at 18 per cent. The water is then drained off and the salt swept out. Completely Spoiled. “What's the trouble with that prima donna?” asked the manager. “She used to be very pleasant and consider- ate.” “Yes,” replied the stage man- ager, “but she has gotten so she be- lieves all the press agent writes about her.” Miiton’s Summing Up.

It 1s the average sort of person who occupies the most useful places in life. luxury, wealth and MIKADO IS A POLYGAMIST! Japanese Royal Palace Is Separated From Other Places in Tokio by Triple Moat. The mikado, earth-born son of heav- en, and his court of demigods .dwell in a forest solitude in the midst of the great city of Tokio. The palace | world is separated from the world of the people by a triple moat of dead | water and a double wall of granite | crowned by twisted pine trees and ! mottled with the moss of ages. Except | upon stated occasions, the mikado is | as invisible and well nigh as inacces- | sible as the sun goddess amid the | hereditary treasures of the Ise shrine. | In his august person the hotly dis- | puted origin of his race finds its re- flection, for he has the eyes of the | Mongol, the coloring and facial struc. ! ture of the Malay. Unlike the reigning houses of Aus- | tria, Russia and Prussia, the house of | Japan, which, thanks to the system of | plural wives and the custom of adop- | tion, has survived so many hundred | years in an apparently unbroken line, | | has no family name and the given | names of its members are not by any means what they seem to be or to | mean upon a superficial examination. | The Mikado Mitsuhito is not the | “meek man” nor is Prince Haru a “verdant” or “springlike prince.” | These names have an occult meaning ! which is probably hidden from all ex- cept the princes of the blood and it is in a close family council that they | are decided upon. Behind the moss-grown battlements and the stagnant moats, the Lord of Ten Thousand Years leads a singular- ly sober and frugal life. It has been suggested that he is still haunted by the memory of the threadbare court of his father, the Emperor Komel, where not seldom even food was lacking. The support of hawking and of the old swordmakers with their secret meth- ods of tempering steel and his efforts to collect the widely scattered books relating to the Shinto cult are his only | extravagances.—Metropolitan Maga- zine. CAUSE OF CANCER IN CHINA Eating of Steaming Hot Food Respon- sible for Prevalence of Disease Among Men. In China, when a native family sits down to dine, the men of the house- hold and the male guests, if there be any, are served first. Their food comes to them steaming hot. The women must wait until later to be | served, and by that time the food has | grown cooler. The men commence to eat immediately the dishes of steam- ing hot food are set before them. Rice, cow peas and other things are | bolted hot. The women have to be satisfied with only lukewarm dishes. So much for etiquette. Now for the consequences. In China cancer of the oesophagus, or throat, is common among men. Among Chinese women the disease is very rare; practically unknown. All of this, and more, was reported by Dr. E. D. Bashford at the recent annual meeting of the Imperial Can- cer Research Fund held in London. He said, in referring to the alarming in- roads made by cancer among China- men, that the frequency of the disease would be diminished if such practices as the eating of very hot rice were discontinued. The rice the women eat is cool and non-rritating, and they rarely contract cancer. . Big Buck Shot in the Adirondacks. D. P. Webster, Ernest Hendricks and Clarence Lapp returned Monday from the Adirondacks with the larg- est buck brought from the north in many years. It was shot by Mr. Lapp. and weighed 310 pounds, measured nearly nine feet from tip of nose to tail and had a most perfect head, each antler having five uniform and nicely formed prongs. The buck must have been trodding the Adirondacks for years, as it was without teeth and the Antlers indicated that he was well along in years. Mr. Webster, who each year visits the Adirondacks, when he first saw the deer after it had been shot was s0 startled at the size of it that he gasped and imagined it was a mule. The guides also informed the Fort Plainers that nothing to compare with it had been shot in the Adirondacks during the last decade.—Mohawk Val- ley Register. Regular Habits, It is a good plan to have a regular time for reading. One accomplishes 80 much more in this way, and be- sides establishes a kind of intellectual habit that is a good thing in itself. In an hour, or even half an hour given regularly each day to reading, a great deal may be accomplished. Do not confine your self to serious books. Al- ternate light with heavy reading and do not attempt heavy reading when you are tired. Do not read merely to | be amused. Treat your books as friends. Do not follow blindly the teachings of any book. Indian Relics Found in Massachusetts. Moses B. Phillips of the Log Plain road has found and left in the town clerk's office two attractive speci- mens of Indian implements. One of these is a spear head, apparently un- finished, of native stone and of un- usual size, and the other, an ax or tomahawk, is somewhat unusual in being made of a nat've stone of rather —— — coarse grain. Both specimens wer found by Mr. Philips on his farm. Greenfield corre: Republican.

It is not at all well known that knighthood has constantly been con- ferred upon women. Many English ladies received the accolade and many more were members of such knightly orders as the Garter and St. John. When Mary Cholmondeiey, “the bold lady of Cheshire,” was knighted by Elizabeth for “her valiant ad- dress” on the queen taking the com- mand at the threatened invasion by Spain, did she know that a whole city of Spanish women, the gallant women of Tortosa, had been knighted for saving that city from the Moors? Mary and Elizabeth had both been knighted at their coronation; but by the time Anne, the second Mary, and Victoria ascended the throne it had been quite forgotten that according to English law and use a woman who filled a man's office acquired all its privileges and was immune from none of its duties.
