COLES FOR JULY.
Firm Storms and Signs.
Mother Earth is now In the House of
Fortune, opposed by King Leo, the Hon
the king of the low-ohb forces who
will send epidemics, drought, microbes,
strange new bugs and parasites to af
flict Earth. Fortunately for America,
sho stands In good position to lccelvo
much benefit fiom the great planets
Jupiter, Uranus and Saturn; therefore,
while good fortune may bo smiling
upon her, some of the countries In the
old world will bo in riot, wars and
many things evil which may astonish
the world. But let us not forget that
while fortune may be smiling upon her,
heie In America many disease microbes
both In the animal and vegetable king
dom may creep In upon us unaware.
Therefore wo warn mankind to piep.ue
themselves to wnrd off these awful dis
ease geuns which will abound, n wo
have reasons to bellevo thnt the nlr will
bo highly charged with deadly poison,
Tho greatest danger from stoims
during the current month will bc be
tween the 2d nnd 7th; Sth and 12th;
14th and lSth; nnd from the 21st to the
30th seerc storms may be looked for.
A warm wave of Insufferable heat will
stilko some sections, while a cold wave
bordeilng on frost nnd snow will vlt-it
others. The latter half of the month
will bilng strange phenomenal nnd
earth disturbances or phenomenal
weather. Tho sunset, also the sunrise
scenes this month will bo beautiful to
behold; thereforo watch out for this
grand picture which nature supplies for
the poor as well as for the rich. Cloud
bursts, hurricanes nnd cyclones will
mark n hard recoid In some of tho
Western nnd Southern states, and vlo
lent hall, wind and rain storms will
nslt tho Eastcin states.
The locusts havs already made their
appearance hi the Southern states, and
wo huvo reasons to bellevo that sev
eral new forms of mlciobes will put in
their appeaiance this month In some
localities und make an attack upon
grain and vegetables arid that hun
dreds of acres of rye, oats and wheat
will bs destroyed. From tho 16th to
tho 21st will bo a good time to destroy
noxious weeds of all kind, b'.t the ban
ner month for destroying noxious weeds
will be tho Low-Ebb dajs during the
month of August. Tho correct days
will be sent to any address for mere
postuge.
Tho best day of the month to fish
will bo the 15th, nnd the next best days
will be 2d, 6th, 13th, 22d and 23th.
The best day to sow buckwheat will
bo .Monthly, tho 15th. Buckwheat should
be sown about 4 o'clock In tho after
noon, ns It always comes Into blossom
the same hour of tho day In which It
whs sown; thereforo It should bo sown
late In the day, so that the warm sun
shine will not destroy the tiny "blos
som germs."
Avoid all surgical operations during
tho Low-Ebb days. Other valuable in
formation will bo found In the July
number of Storms and Signs.
The following receipt will have a
tendency to drive away the fever
microbes; Take equal parts of saler
atus and sulphur and camphor gum In
A -X. -
the following proportions: One-halt
teaspoonful of saleratus and one-halt
of sulphur, and a. piece of camphor
gum no larger than a pea; mix all to
gether nnd sprlnklo slowly upon a hot
stove at least once a week, keeping the
doors and windows closed so that the
fumes will enter nil partB of tho house.
A bottle of linked oil and lime water
In equal parts Is the best application
for burns and to prevent scars.
For the proper days to sow grain,
transplant flowers and nil such work,
send ten cents for a copy ot Prof. C.

FREIGHT'S THE THING.
Pullmans Make Ten Times the Show
of Their Real Value.
Carl llovry, In Alnslee'a.
About three-quarters of a railroad's
receipts come from the freight depart
ment. The passenger department sup
plica nearly nil tho rest, tho Income
from mnll, express and other privileges
being comparatively small. Carrying
passengers Is a simple matter, or
would be If state legislatures did not
now and then take a hand In prescrib
ing service specifications for railroad
nascenser service. In Ohio a law was
passed decreeing that the height be-
PUZZLE.
you find the wife he
twecn the platform and the lowest
steps of pass-enger coaches should not
exceed twelve Inches. This cost the
railroads nearly one hundred thousand
dollars, and the reform led to the
abolition of a number of flag stops
where the passengers' had been quite
willing to scramblp up off tho ballast.
Legislatures In the west have been
known to hamper and exasperate rall
load men npparently for the pure pleas
ure of the act, a state ot things that
seems almost Inconceivable In some
Eastern states, where the legislatures
represent the railroads better than tho
rallioads could represent themselves.
Compared with the freight business
tho passenger traffic presents few
complications. The great simplifying
factor is that passenger rates aro
stable while freight rates nro not.
Passengers pay a fixed rate per mile
for transportation. But the price of
ft eight transportation varies according
to tho size of tho lot.
It Is curious to note that the freight
trains, scarecrow processions of
shameless packing-cases on wheels,
Interminably squeaking through our
streets, are tho ones that really count
when you come to make up the profits.
The magnificent trains of vestlbuled
Pullmans which glide swiftly through
the country on velvet roadbeds mako
ten times the show that their real
value to the road warrants. Nothing
surely Is more disreputable In .appear
ance than tho procession of battered
frolghv -cars that Jolts and creaks Into
the yard In tho sunny mists of a Bun
day morning unless It Is In the phy
siognomies of tho pair of brakemen
trailing their legs over the roof. Yot
the train is doing something more
than Its share toward keeping the lino
going. Tho two rowdies on the roof
are, after all, gilt-edged conductors In
the making. It is a democratic busi
ness. Freight brakeman to freight
conductor, freight conductor to pas
senger conductor that Is the order of
promotion on most American roads. So
tho freight train man Impresses him
self on tho whole passenger service.
STAGE FORTUNES.
Fianklin I'jIm In Km body's Migazlne.
The actor richest In his direct earn
ings Is Joseph Jefferson. He has
drawn very large audiences during
more than forty years, the plays ho
presents cost him nothing In royalties
to their authors, his companies nro
moderuto In tho pay-roll, ho divides
with no partner, and his Bhare of tho
gross receipts leaves no largo portion
to tho theatre In which he appears.
Lotta Crabtree Is much wealthier than
he, but through ho Inctcnse of tho
capital with which she retired from
tho stage years ago. So Is Sol Smith
Russell, who has invested his savings
fortunntely. William Crane Is another
who has turned some of his incomo
Into accumulation. Denmnn Thomp
son wo id ho ns well off ns Russell or
Crano If he hnd not lost a consider
able part of the heavy profits of his
ours.
An nctor who made n great deal
nnd then sunk It Is Nell Burgess.
The same thing Is truo of Edward
Harrington. The 1 1 la li comedians, An
drew Mack and Cimuncey Alcott, may
bo put down at $20,000 each for tho
season, their managers making ns
much more. Teter F. Daily is therc
abouts. Tho sumo figures will do for
those German mimics, Louis Mann and
the Roger brothers. Webber & Field's,
two more of the German dialect actors,
have a Joint fortune of $400,000, made
by attention to the business side of
their efforts. To get back Into tho
irreproachably legltlmato field there
aro many stars of good degree such
ns Helena Modjeska, James O'Nell,
James A. Heme Henry Miller, Sarah
Cowell Le Moyne, James K. Hackett,
Louis James, Kathryn Kidder, and
Rolicrt Mantell whom the managers
do not regard ns "money-makers,"
Yet they clear $10,000 apiece annually
on tho average, That Isn't so bad for
a calling once despised and Ill-paid.
There are a dozen to twenty actors
and actresses getting the equal of that
In salury with resident or traveling
companies, with no uncertainty about
it.
Jane Leslie
tint n man of strong nnd, I venturo
I
to think, thoroughy well-founded
opinions. One of them Is thnt wo
man Is, or should be, a domestic
' nlmal! and in this term there
needs be no cause lor offense, for nro
we not alt animals domestic or other
wise? When I mairlcd some yars ago 1
chose a wife who npj.i "lehed very
closely to my Ideal of man's helpmate.
Bho wns, and Is, extremely pictty; not
too strong physically (I always think
there is something repulsive about the
very robust girl): and possesses sweet
ly feminine appreciation of the attruc-
tlvcness ot good dressing.
I paid all her bills uncomplainingly,
nnd with such Indulgence sho should
have been content: but, as not even
the best of us Is qulto perfect, I do not
mean to speak harshly ot her when I
ndmlt that she wor not so entirely
satlsltrd ns I should have liked to sco
her.
In fact, to speak plainly, she went
on strike for an allowance.
I tried to put the absurdity of tho
matter before her In a proper light.
I asked her what moro she could pos
sibly want. Had she not liberty to
give unlimited orders.
She gave a little stamp of her foot
(sho has very pretty feet) and answer
ed me with a show of Importance
which I could not help disapproving.
"Do you expect me to spend my
whole life between four walls while
youi are happy nnd busy at your of
fice?" sho asked. "I may any day
take a sudden fncy to go Into town,
and I wish to bo free to do so. Once
there I can Interest myself in many
ways besides shopping."
"Dcanest," I sal tempering my
logic with nffectlon, "nature Intends
the female to ho a home-keeping
creature." I took "The Descent ot
Man" from the book-shelf, nnd opened
it impressively at a well-remembered
passage. "Darwin says, 'Tho femalo
glow-worm Is destitute of wings, as
also are many femalo moths, some of
which never leave their cocoons.
Many femalo parasitic crustaceans
have lost their natatory legs." I look
ed up at her to observe tho effect of
this unanswerable argument, and to
my disgust I found that sho was
actually laughing."
"All right," she said. "I'm not a
beggar. If you won't give me money,
I'll earn It for myself. That's all."
Tho I laughed happily, for If she
Joked it was a sign that her good
humor wns restored. And of cours
I concluded that she wns Joking. How
could she, my wife earn money sho
In her sheltered life?
Sho did not mention tho subject of
nn nllownnce to me ngaln, nnd I knew
that her days were happy nnd full of
Interest, because sho always looked
bright and never complained.
In my work she always affected to
take a kindly Interest, nnd wns ever
ready to lead me Into talk about tho
literary management of the Weekly
Eclipse, of which 1 was the editor.
"I wish," I said one evening, "that
Jane Leslie would offer a contribution
to the Eclipse. It Is against my prin
ciples to solicit contributions, nnd 1
particularly object to do so In the case
of women writers, but one must occas
slonally make an exception."
"Who Is Jano Leslie?" she nsked;
nnd for a moment I could not help
thinking that It was rather stupid of
her not to know.
"Have you read her book?" she nsk
ed. "Of course I have," I said. "I re
viewed It myself In the Eclipse."
"And you really think It remark
ably clever?"
"Certainly 1 do. As you are so
much Interested I will order It for
you."
"I wasn't thinking nbout reading
It,'" sho said, rather ungratefully. "I
was only wondering If you would
consider that this authoress was ful
filling her destiny If she carried out
your theory about women, nnd did
nothing but sit by the domestic
hearth."
It was agreeable to find that my
words had been treasured.
"But why," I asked, "make a special
case of Jane Leslie? Women of gen
ius and of exceptional talent are al
ways with us. They aro tho excep
tions. I lay down r.o rules for them."
"Don't you think," she asked, "that
you would tlnd Jane Leslie a more
congenial companion than you And
me?"
I replied with a number of pretty
ncthlngs such ns women love, but
for once sho seemed scarcely to appre
ciate my tenderness.
"Perhaps It Is true," she saldV "that
I have very sweet lips to kiss and a
musical voice to flatter you with;
these things are to be hnd In harems.
I have been your plnythlng for some
years. I should like to bo your good
comrade for a change."
"Darling," I said, "It la nmongst
men that a man looks for good com
rades; he does not seek them
amongst"
"Average women," she cried, with a
laugh that was less musical than
usual. Pulling her hand away from
me she ran out of the room, and pres.
ently I heard the door of her sanctum
shut, and the key turn In the lock.
It wns a prety lltle burst of temper,
nnd Interesting In Its way, but I was
very busy Just then, and I did not at
tach much lmportnnco to It until later,
I wns rapped up In the Interests of
the Eclipse, arid, before the end ot
the week I wrote to Jane Leslie, under
cover, to her publisher, asking lier to
favor me with a short article.
A few weeks later she sent mo a
charming short story, and not long
aftervvnrds I was able, owing to the
death of n member of our staff, to of
fer, her a weekly column in the
Eclipse. She held out for high terms,
but I knew her name would prove a
draw, and, being anxious to secure ns
much ns they were worth, which is an
unwise thing to do, hut sometimes un.
avoidable.
All this led me Into an animated cor
respondence what Jane Leslie, and I
became deeply interested In her per
sonality. Wo passed from business to
friendly relations, and In a short time
I flattered myself that I was her most
trusted friend. Her letters were In
stinct with wit nnd humor. She gavo
me glimpses Into a mind that was truly
masculine In Its breadth and depth;
nnd toward the end she dropped hints
which stirred me to tho bottom of my
soul, of being scantily appreciated In
her own home.
Once or twice my consctenro pricked
me with the recollection of my, sweet
wife's diffident question "Don't you
think that you would find Jane Leslie
a moro congenial companion than you
find me?" and I reproached myself for
making truo surmise by the pleasure
which I took In this correspondence.
However, as I reminded myself, It was
purely a pleasure of the Intellect, and
my dear one could not be Jealous, even
If she knew. Still, round myself
wishing that she could talk to me a
Jane Leslie wrote.

In the Bplrltl of contrarlty I deter
mined to meet her; and when next I
wrote I begged the favor of a personal
Interview. I wns prepared for a re
fusal, and felt both" relieved and tri
umphant when aire wrote asking If
sho 'inderstood mo right did I mean
that I wished to give her an illustrated
Interview In tho Kellpse? If so, alio
would have her photo taken upeclally
for me. She might have meant to im
ply that uny Interview sho granted
me would only bo on business line,
but I jumped at the excuse, begged her
to have the photo taken Immediately,
and to appoint a day and hour for
our meeting.
She named Saturday afternoon, and,
moat unfortunately, I had proml-ned to
take my wife on that day lo the mati
nee at the Lyceum. When I went
home I broke to her gently that I had
been oblldged to make another en
gagement. I set out that Saturday ufternoon
rather hoping that I should find Jane
Leslie a spectacled bony, unattractive
object, and when I had reached the
addiess from which sho habitually
wrote I felt sure that no young and
lovely literary woman could abide
thM-e.
The door was opened; a neat maid
servant ushered mo Into an untenant
ed drawing-room asking mo If I wore
the gentleman who came by appoint
ment, and departed to summon the
authoress,
I had not long to take mentHl note
of matters unimportant, for In a very
few minutes the drawing-room open,
cd, and I turned to meet her whom?
It was my wife who stood before me,
blushing a little and smiling pleasant
ly. "What brings you here?" I stam
mered. "Here?" sho mild, Innocently. "I nm
(.pending the duy with an old school
friend. I often come here."
"I have come to see Miss Jane Les
lie," I sold, taking the hull by the
horns with as much coolness as pos
sible.
"I know," she said. "That Is why I
am hero."
'Has Miss Jane Leslie deputed you
to meet me?" I asked coldly.
"If one can bo said to depute one
self," sho answered, shrugging her
