Barrett, who had boeu pardoned out

CLIMBING THE ALPS. I
Gnldva That Ti*mp 1 tnnirr Trav«l
fI'M Into Ftati of Danger,
More than half the accidents In the
Alps occur to those who have not the
pluck to turn back. The guides are
too often In favor of going on from
professional motives. They have very
few weeks to earn their living ID, and
It Is a sort of tragedy for them to miss
a single climb. For the same reason
tticy are given to urging a party onto
climb difficult and expensive peaks
that are really beyond their strength.
They regard tourists as so much bag
gage which they can at need almost
carry on the rope. The only climb,
therefore, which they regard as dan
gerous is a "traverse"—on which an
accident to their tourist may mean
death to themselves. Climbing straight
up or down they feel fairly certain of
sustaining any strain on the rope. It
Is most Important, therefore, that ev
ery party should use its own unim
peded Judgment in regard to every ex
pedition. The great danger in placet
like Zennatt and Chamonlx Is that
there are a large number of unemploy
ed guides always waiting about to
catch the unwary traveler and tempt
him into a difficult and expensive
climb. lie will get far more pleasure
out of the sport if he beglnß with the
cheap and easy and works gradually
up to difficult. There Is no especial
merit In being frightened half out e(
your life.—Loudon News.
Back to BnglUh Fair*.
For the origin of the modern circus
one must go back to the English fairs
of the seventeenth, eighteenth and
early nineteenth centuries. Unlike the
American county fairs of the present
day, which are more in the nature of
live stock exhibitions, the early Eng
lish fair was a rout of dancing, fid
dling, drinking, fighting, wrestling and
bull baiting—a gathering, as It were,
'of merry andrews, monstrosities, bul
lies, Jilts, tight rope walkers, acrobats,
contortionists, equestrians, mounte
banks, grlmacers, scaramouches,
thieves, pickpockets, idlers, beggars,
fortune tellers, gypsies and those upon
whom they prey.—E. S. ttallock In

OLD TIME SERVANTS.
Pvpra Had Trouble! of Hla Own
Wit It Hla HralaU
Perhaps oue reason why servants la
Pepys' time were treated as "one of
the family" was that they very often
were blood relations. The diarist him
self, In fact, engaged his own slater
Pauline as his servant, "which she
promised me she could, and with many
thanks did weep for joy." For all that,
be would not "let her sit down at the
table with me, which 1 do at first that
she may not expect It hereafter from
me." Her temper, however, made the
arrangement Impossible, and Pepys
bad to engage somebody else Instead,
"It being a great trouble to me that I
should have a sister of so 111 a nature
that I must be forced to spend money
upon a stranger, when It might be bet
ter upon her if she were good for any
thing."
It U only within a century or so
that servants have ceased to be rela
tions of the family and the term
"menial" has come to be considered
derogatory Instead of meaning simply
"within walls"—lntra moenla. In the
old days all women between twelve
and forty and all men between twelve
knd sixty without means of subsistence
could be forced by two justices togo
Into domestic service; hence the fact
that when a man married his cook, as
he often did, be was extremely likely
to marry some one abave him tn sta
tion, as we understand distinctions of
class nowadays. Tills also explains
why s lady would refer to her maid as
her "gentlewoman" and a master to
bis valet as his "gentleman."

CON AN DOYLE, THE FAMOUS
CREATOR OF "SHERLOCK
HOLMES," RECEIVES THE
HIGHEST PRICE EVER
1'AII) IX AMERICA
FOR ANY SERIAL
STORY.
$25,000 for Just the Magazine
Rights of His Thrilling New
Romance, "Sir Nigel."
EXCLUSIVELY IN THE SUNDAY PHILA
DELPHIA PRESS.
When the most successful uovelist
of our time, at the zenith of his fame,
writes his undoubted masterpiece, the
literary event calls for"more thau
passing comment. The eyes of all
the world who write, and of all the
world who read, become fixed upon
the career of Sir Arthur C'onan Doyle,
Knight by grace of King Edward,
and by grace of the people the first
story-teller in the world to-day.
No author is better qualified to put
forth a volume that will endure as
long as English literature is extant
than Conau Doyle, and no work will
come nearer being the greatest story
that the world has ever read than
"Sir Nigel" for which the astounding
price of 825,000 has been paid, not
only for just the American magazine
rights, but for the rights for just this
publication.
All the critics say that C'onan
Doyle's fame rests not upon his "Sher
lock Holmes" stories, but upon his
"White Company," a tale of the
middle ages. And another "White
Company" this thrilling new romance
is to be, in which Conau Doyle takes
up "Sir Nigel" at the age of twenty
two, just as he is setting forth in life
to mend with is sword the fallen for- j
tunes of his. noble house and family. |
Criics and editors who have been i
favored with early readings of it say
it is unquestionably the greatest his-1
torical romance ever written, and
will without doubt be the literary
' sensation of the year. The first in
stallment begins in the Sunday Maga
zine section of"The Philadelphia
Press," beginning Sunday, December
3. Nowhere else can it be procured
in book or other form; therefore it be
hooves you to leave your order with
your newsdealer or carrier to serve
you with "The Sunday Press" of
that date, December .'i.

What a Stenographer can do.
•'The Possibilities of .Stenography"
is the title of an inspiring article for
girls in the NEW IDEA WOMAN'S
MAGAZINE for December. The writer
speaks of this work as being 4'splend
id K elastic." holding out a poospect
to young girls, and to girls not so
young, of mounting step by step from
junior positions to secretaryships,
managerships, editorships and the
higher professions. She tells of the
young women whoso stenography
has taken them traveling to the four
quarters of the globe or "titling
through college on a typewriter." t4 A
knowledge of stenography." slit; says,
in closing, 4 'stands to a girl somewhat
as ft well-invested sum of money does
to the investor. She can use the in
terest at any time to help her over a
dillieult situation. When she needs a
' few dollars extra, she cau draw on it,
even after the necessity of earning
her tlaily bread as a stenographer has
I been eliminated. In short, if there is
| any one calling to clay followed by
j women that offers as many chances
forgetting along as does stenography,
close thinking on the subject for sev
eral days has failed to discover it."
