9 Facts of Interest - Women Readers. ' Symposium of Partly-Gossipy Prof, Ceasar Lom.brose, i the Turwln savant, flatly disputes the old-fashioned idea that woman 1 more sensitive than Tnan, or thatuhe supports palir better than, the other sex. ".By means," he ays. "of observation mudt on tmbjetU in .all clBSjjt-j or ebelety uiul uf all uses. I ascertained that, Itv inuny wi'H!W, women feel less than men. Her eii8i' of smelt Ih not m BttOntr. Her general eelisltlveni-KS la ulna less. As to. her powerof supporting pain, the fact In her Bufferings ill similar operation:! are not nu Intense us thone of man. I collected the oplnloiiH-of surgeons, dentists and others who perform painful operation, und whose experiences take them back to the time when etnu'Stlietlca were nut in general use. It in ridiculous to kuk ffest thait the exeivlxe of will can dimin ish the force of 'the emotions. It can only check their manifestations. Wo men rarely suppress their emotions, and It Ih because they tire so prune to Knowing them that we give them eVedlt for having greater sensitiveness. Vo mni feels less because she thinks less. VeihHve been misled by taking the ex terior manifestations of pain fur pain Itself. Women have not renter sen sitiveness thun men. They ure simply more Irritable," This Is revolutionary With u Vengeance. I Among the many bright thing fjlea.mil, from Ltuly Hkssitiston'a let ters, art the following: "A woman's head is always Influenced by her heart, but a man's hrart Is alwayss Inlltieneed by his head." "It would be well if virtue wns never seen unaccompanied by charity, nor vice divested of that grossncBS which displays It In Its most disgusting form, for the ex ample of both would then be more bene ll.ial." "Those who are formed to win general admlrntlou are seldom calculated to be stow Individual happiness." "There Is a, difference between the emotions of a lover and those of n hus band; the lover sighs and the husband groans." "The g;reat majority of men are actors, who prefer a presumed part to that which nature has assigned them." ' "it is not sulllclent for legislators to close the avenues of crime, unless they open those which lead to virtue." "We never respect persons who conde scend to amuse us.' "We find in all countries multitudes of people physically brav, but few persons In any land uiorally courageous." "Kxtreines of civilization and of barbar ism approach veiy nearly both beget fccl!ngs of Intense selfishness." "We acquire mental strength by being left to our own resources.' "Society, in Its Spartan morality, pun ishes Its numbers severely for the detec tion of their vices, hut crime Itself has nothing but detection to apprehend nt tis hands." Men who would persecute others for religious opinions, prove the errors of their own." "Superstition Is but the fear of belief; religion Is the confidence.' "It Is dltlicult to decide whether It is most disagreeable to live with fanatics, who, insist on our believing ull they be lieve, or with philosophers, who .wquj'l have-tr Botibt everything of wlilch they are not convinced." HER GRADUATION SLEEVES: Why does the sweet girl graduate Seem so preoccupied? Why does she hunt the dressmaker, As If she were a bride? All day, and half into the night, Her fancy vision weaves; She's putting her whole scul Into Her graduation sleeves. Maybe she has an essay, too, on some important theme, Like, "How to make home happy," or, "Are things Just what they seem?" Hut that which, till a troubled Bleep Her ac tive brain relieves, Absorbs her thoughts Is, what she'll have I'ur graduation sleeves. Of course, there'll be, to hang them on, A graduation dress; But that gets little thought from her, And other things still less. That fateful pair of big balloons Alone her care receives. Her life Just now Is centered In Her graduation sleeves. Somerville Journal, A3 TO BLOOMERS: We do not speak In disparaging tones when we say that a woman who wears bloomers has loose habits.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS: Some registers have a way of refusing to shut tightly. Almost every house has one that Is stiff In the Joints, or which has lost the wheel, or knob, or bar that used to close It. When the furnace Is shuken the dust rises through the gaping seams; when you would turn off the heat In a sleeping room or throw It from one part of the house to the other, you ure battled. Make a wadded square, just the size of the delinquent cover, of carpeting or other heavy material; tuck stout loops to 'the corners, and when you would ex clude cinder dust und hot air fasten these loops to hooks or brass buttons fixed In the wall or floor surrounding the register. For the drawing room the outer side may be made of satin or plush, bound with rib bon or gallon. If tine cut glass becomes tarnished or blurred polish with a very soft brush on which Is sifted very line and soft whit ing, and It will be restored to Its original beauty; or a very soft piece of newspaper can be used to polish glass. Wet the piece of newspaper slightly and gently rub the glas. Be careful not to give the frail tiling a twist In rubing ItUnit Is, parry ing one "hand In an opposite direction from the other, which is the quickest way to break anything. After that repeat the work with some dry, soft paper. It Is Bald that the printer's Ink causes news paper to give a liner finish when cleaning may be, no lint remains, and the polish Is brilliant. If fine cut-glass water bottles get dingy Inside rinse them ocasionaily with a little muriatic acid and then rinse In clear, cold water very thoroughly. Muriatic acid will remove stains and Impurities, and greutly improve the brilliancy nf the glass. But ashes, sand or shot, which many use to cfleanse glass, scratch and Injure the glass and do not bring back the original lustre.- Besides, the lead In shot Is poison ous, and It any Is left through carelessm-s in the decanter it might do great hurm. It some times happens that a picked finger will leave a blood stain upon some delicate work. It Is a good thing to know that a paste made of uncooked laundry strath, IT spread upon the stain Immed iately und lett to dry, may then he scraped off and with It will dlssappear all traces of thestulu without Injury to the fabric. Oilcloth Is ruined by the application of lye9oap, as the lye eats the cloth, and after being washed It should be wiped per fectly dry or the dampness will soon rot It.
