"Hypocrite!"
j^ v ";, My friend Maisie

"Why do you

hypocrite?" I demanded indignantly.
"Didn't you see how she agreed with
everything 1 said?" Maisie retorted.
"There wasn't one point on which she
disputed me, yet I have heard that
same woman express diametrically op
posite views on the very same ques
tions when she was with another wo
man. That's why I brought up the
same subjects. I wanted to hear what
she would say. But it's no use. You
can't make lior disagree with you.
She won't disagree with any one."
"Happy woman!" I interjected.
"Oil, that's all very well," Maisie
went on, "but at least I would like to
see her consistent. You know she has
a really brilliant mind, is a tremendous

reader, and there's nothing she likes
better than to talk to intellectual peo
ple. In fact, she has nothing in com
mon with the type of woman the G o '*-
mans designate as 'hausfrau.' Well,
my dear, the other day she happened
to call on a woman of this description
—a woman who cared for nothing but
her housework and kitchen. And what
do you suppose happened? Why, she
fascinated the creature completely.
During the whole of her visit she talk
ed most enthusiastically on household
subjects, discussed the relative merits
of Brown's and of Jones' baking pow
ders and whether that new washing
COLLipuuiiil nuit \k\jlcn in tho olotbca or
not. Fancy! And I don't believe she
ever held a tin of baking powder in
her hand during her whole life. Here's
unother Instance: She can't endure
children, you know, yet whenever she
goes where there are any she plays
with them in the most charming man
ner and quite wins the hearts of all
the mothers.
"She will volubly discuss politics on
Tuesday evening with Jack Wither
ington, who admires brainy women,
and will make him admit she is the
cleverest one he ever met, and yet on
Wednesday, when Lester Carew ap
pears on the scene (he has old fash
ioned ideas on the subject of women),
she will display the most adorable and
utterly feminine ignorance on all seri
ous subjects.
"And then when she attends the
meeting of the Society of Advanced
Woman Thinkers she wears a costume
so severe that it savors strongly of the
masculine, yet that very afternoon she
rushes home, effects a quick change
and appears at the Van Sutphens' aft
ernoon tea in a creation of most friv
olous chiffons. Now r , did you ever see
such a contradiction?"
"Why, no!" I exclaimed. "She is the
adaptable woman, the woman who is
born to be the delight of her husband
and of society at large. She is the wo
man who will never offend you by in
dulging in a different frame of mind
from your own.
"It is certain that she will never be
straitlaced in Bohemia or Bohemian in
the salons of Mrs. Grundy. When she
goes to a strange country, she will al
most instantly adapt herself to its
ways and customs. When her husband
loses her fortune, she will look as at
tractive in print gowns as she did in
brocade ones, and she will do her
housfwork with the same grace with
which she received her guests at din
ner parties.
"When by chance she has to do with
inferior people, she will come down to
their own level In talking to them, and
when she has dealings with individuals
who are her superiors in life she will
raise herself to meet them. In other
words, the adaptable woman is all
things to ail people."
But Maisie shook her head disap
provingly. She herself is not au adapt
able woman.

[Copyright, 1901. l>y C. r. T.rwis.]
Guya .Tansi was the owner of Ral
poor, the largest elephant at work on
the public improvements at Rewah,
India.
Guya .Tansi was a man forty years
old, and he was generally spoken of by
liis fellow workmen as "The Silent
One." fie was not given to song or
chatter. He would a fair day's
work, but his answers to his boss were
brief and surly and he answered his
companions not at all for days and
days. His elephant was like him. He
was strong and willing and intelligent,
but be avoided his kind as far as pos
sible and permitted no man but his
master to be familiar with him. The
English boss under whom Guya la
bored at Rewah said to himself that
the native was a bad tempered man
and that the elephant had tho devil in
his eye, but so long as the work was
well done he had no fault to find. The
fifty other laborers in the gang with
Guya were offended by his silence and
liis refusal to chatter and argue, and
they whispered to each other:
"This man and his beast may cast
a spell over us. Why not get rid of
them?"
Three days later a man complained
of being robbed of a sum of money,
and when suspicion had been directed
toward Guya his tent was searched
and the empty purse discovered. At
first lie contented himself with sullenly
denying his guilt, but when he had
been locked up as the thief and the
gang were shouting liis name in con
tempt he stood erect, with tears In his
oyr:s, and said:
"How dare they say such things of
me! I am Guya Jansi. You can trace
my family back for 200 years, and
you will not find a thief in it. I am
silent because men have wronged me
and mine, and I brood over it, but
does it follow that because I am silent
I ain also a rogue? Look for the thief
among the men who chatter more than
they work."
Three days later the English district
Judge reached Rewah on his circuit,
and Guya was arraigned as a thief.
There was a conspiracy to ruin him,
and the false testimony offered satis
fied the judge of his guilt. The affair
was treated in an offhand way. and
when the accused asked for time to
bring witnesses who could vouch for
bis character his request was refused.
He was convicted of theft and sen
tenced to Jail for three months. He
wept and cried out over his disgrace,
but he was only laughed at. The judge
went his way without giving the case a
second thought. He had hundreds of
such cases per year, and there was no
particular reason why he should give
thJa case special attention. Before be
ing sent to prison Guya asked permis
sion to bid his elephant goodby. This
was granted. Raipoor seemed to under
stand that misfortune had come, and
those who stood close by saw tears In
his eyes as he lovingly caressed his
master.
"They have done me a great wrong,"
said Guya as if talking to a fellow
man."l am innocent, as God knows.
Dut tney nave ueciarea me toot a
thief, aud I must goto jail. We have
been jKior, my beloved, but we have
been honest, and never until today
have we been ashamed to look men in
the face. If tho sahib judge had been
fair minded, this disgrace would not
have come, but he took the word of
liars and refused to hear me. He is not
a just Judge."
They would have put the elephant at
work under another maliout, but he es
caped from the camp that night and
took to the jungle. Guya was thrown
Into jail among a lot of malefactors,
and within two weeks there was a
quarrel in which he was stabbed to
death. That was the end of him so far
as any one at Rewah was concerned.
The district judge had a long circuit
and many cases, and it was two months
before he approached Rewah again.
Night overtook him while he was yet
twelve miles away, and with his serv
ants he made camp by the roadside.
When he had eaten his supper, he drew
a little way from the camp and sat
down on a stone to smoke his pipe. It
was a bright moonlight night, without
breeze enough to move a leaf, and the
patter of a hyena's feet on the hard
baked earth could have been heard a
quarter of a mile away. So strong was
the moonlight that a prowling jackal
could be made out along the edge of the
Jungle forty rods away. There was uo
fear of tiger or panther, and the judge
was peacefully content as he smoked
and cast a careless eye about him. He
had not been seated ten minutes when
an elephant moved out of the fringe of
the jungle and advanced upon him.
The great beast moved almost without
sound. His feet made no more noise
than those of a fox. One acting as sen
tinel for the camp would have seen
him at once as he moved out, but the
eyes of the judge looked vacantly into
space as bis mind was busy with his
legal work. The elephant liad 3<X) feet
of open ground to pass over. There sat
the judge, and there were half a dozen
servants moving about, but no one saw
him. Not a sound reached any man's
ear. He crept forward like the shadow
of death, and by and by he reached out
and curled his trunk around the judge's
body and lifted him on high and dash
ed him down on the hard earth. The
unfortunate man had cried out, and as
the servants leaped to their feet and
stood staring the elephant lifted up the
body and dashed it down twice more.
Then he turned away and sought the
Jungle.
"It was Guya's elephant," said the
servants when they reached Rewah.
"The sahib judge had not given Guya
a fair trial. The elephant knew that
his master was dead, no waited in the
Jungle to mete out retribution."
And so believed all who knew of the
case. M. QUAD.

t
I A new factor that must soon be tak
en into consideration in connection
with the good roads problem is the
rapid extension of the electric traction
systems into the rural districts. Not
content with the immense volume of
j earnings of the intramural systems, the
| rtreet railway interests have invaded
| the country with long interurban lin69
that are already projected all the way
across large states, says H. W. Perry
Vi Good Roads Magazine.
These street railways, or electric trac
tion roads, are not to be ignored by the
good :'oads workers. They must be
studied for the purpose of determining
the effect they will eventually have up

HARD ON THE HORSE.
on highway travel, whether toward in
creasing or decreasing its volume or as
reducing the length of haul by horses
auil wagons and changing its direction.
Practically all of these railways par
allel important highways between the
principal cities and towns. Many of
them have franchises from the state
granting the right of construction and
operation directly on the public high
ways, while others own part of them in
the shape of purchased rights of way.
The cars on these lines transport pas
sengers from town to town or between
the points on the road as comfortably,
more cheaply and almost as quickly as
the steam cars between stations and
far more quickly and agreeably than
the trip, long or short, can be made by
horse and buggy or wagon. It seems
obvious, therefore, that the electric
roads will tend to reduce the light pas
senger travel along the wagon roads
which they parallel.
Mit tne trad ion companies are not by
any means content with passenger busi
ness alone. They have already embark
ed in the express and light freighting
traffic, despite the legal obstacles which
are being thrown in their way by the
steam railroad companies, whose con
tentious have been defeated in the sit
preine court of Ohio. This freighting
or express business promises in the
near future to become more profitable
to the roads than the transporting of
passengers and to grow more rapidly in
volume. It cannot be doubted that this
draw - wagon traffic from the parallel
highways.
A< yet few if any of the electric roads
have attempted to embark in the heavy
freighting bus ne>s in this country,
though it i • - been done in Europe.
We may safely predict, however, that
In tiuie the traction companies will at
tempt to scenic much of this business
also. unle>> legal restrictions debar
them, for ihcy ean operate as cheaply
as she sieain loads, and in many cases
they have advantages over the latter
In facilities for handling such freight.
However, if the interurban roads re
duce the travel between towns on the
highways which they parallel, they will
bll rely increase the travel on the cross
roads leading from the farms to the
railways and which act as feeders to
the steel ways. They will also undoubt
edly increase the volume of travel 011
the roads reaching from villages off the
lines uf the electric and steam roads to
those through which these lines extend.
Cood road advocates have no reason
for becoming apprehensive that the ex
tension of the interurban electric rail
ways will cause any of the wagon
roads to be abandoned and to fall into
decay. While they seem likely to re
duce traffic on some of the main thor
oughfares connecting towns, their ef
fect will be to increase the number of
short hauls in the aggregate on others.
It is at any rate a factor in highway
improvement.
The progress being made here and
abroad in the manufacture of practical
and economical steam and gasoline
trucks and "lorries," as well as passen
ger coaches, for the transportation of
freight and passengers 011 the public
highways offers the good roads enthusi
ast sufficient guarantee for a counter
acting influence tending to give the in
terurban wagon way a new importance.
It will probably then come to a strug
gle between the operator of the motor
stage and the electric traction com
panies to decide which of them can
reduce the cost of operation to the low
est point.
How to Cure Mange.
A sure cure for the mange is two
drops of Fowler's solution of arsenic
every other morning for ihree morn

three drops every other morning for
six mornings. Give to each cat sepa
rately in a little milk. This will cure

When a savory stew is made and

Cashmere and silk and wool fabrics
are superseding flannel because of their
superior cleaniug qualities. Box plaits
form a popular way of making these

The waist In today's illustration is of
white silk laid in alternate tucks and
shirrings. The sleeves are elbow

flings of chiffon. Above these rufflings
are wide and narrow bands of black
velvet, terminating in rosettes. The
waist has a short yoke of tucks, bor
dered by a curved medallion applique.
The waist is collarless, but about the
throat Is worn a pretty neck ornament
consisting of three narrow bands of
velvet ribbon held together by a white
lace butterfly. Judio Chollet.
