A CHILD'S ALLOWANCE.
Its Value In leui-htitt- film a Jnillrtniia
1'se nf Money.
"Every child should have a stipu
lated sum to spend, if not more than
a penny a week," said a member of a
mother's club. "Encouragement should
be given from the first to save a part
of the sum for tangible purposes
not for a mythical bank account thnt
will be more hazy by far to the child
ish mind than will his friend, Jack the
Oinnt Killer. Presents for papa and
mamma, brother and sister, teachers
and playmates, bought from his own
small wealth tench a child that the
Joy of giving is considerably greater
than that of receiving.
"From Judicious direction of the
manner in which a child's allowance
is used dally lessons may be given in
honesty, foresight, generosity and a
proper ambition for accumulation.
"In rare cases a spirit of miserliness
la discovered in a child. When this Is
seen a wise parent can usually enlist
the sympathy of the child for others
less fortunate than himself, and im
press upon the young mind with prac
tical lessons the unlovelincss of a
selfish spirit.
"How a child learns to spend money
Is one of the moat important parts of
his education. The dally example of
his parents in economizing In pur
chases often makes an Indelible Im
pression. Rut a child's own experi
ences In learning to spend his allow
ance according to its demands and
size, and the consequent mistakes and
disappointments, leave a still deeper
Imprint.
"One of the best things that ever
befell me was an allowance given me
by my father when I was 15. ThlB al
lowance was to supply my entire
wardrobe and the usual expenses.
With a love for the beautiful and a
child's Idea that necessaries will
'come some way' I decided that first
of all I would wear flowers, and so I
did; for a time violets or roses were a
part of my costume. My mother and
older sister, however, gave no word of
caution, because no advice was ever
asked. In a short tlmo boots and
gloves and the usual accessories stub
bornly fchowed bhabbiness in direct ra
tio to the alze aud quality of the cor
sage bouquets, bonbons, matinee tick
ets, etc. But that was not all. Judge
ment in purchasing was to be learned,
and when I appeared la a bright green
gown at Eastertlmo my sister was
ashamed to go o church with me.
Tho result of It all was that In order
to dress as good taste directed I found
It necessary to turn dressmaker and
milliner and make my own wardrobe,
and as Mowers became fewer boots
and gloves Improved In appearance."
The Martyrs of Selenen.
Tho death of a number of courage
ous nnd high-minded people caused
by efforts to determine whether mos
quito bites can convey yellow fever,
is a reminder of the penalties which
science has ever exacted from her
devotees. Comparative poverty, if not
actual want, muut be faced without
hesitation, Even when the govern
ment has need of it, the price paid for
superior learning is very Insufficient,
'ine ordinary social lntereourso is to
be foregone. And even life Itself must
sometimes be risked; not to attain
any definite object which shall at least
cause the martyr's name to sound
with honor, but simply to secure an
authoritative "yes" or "no" to ques
tions on which future experimenta
tions depend. The soldier is lauded
for his courage and the statesman is
admired for bis ability. Tho public
loves to honor them as they deserve
to be honored, because It has been
taken into their confidence and per
mitted to follow their achievements
step by step. But the scientist must
be content with some memorial away
from the ordinary walks of men. Ills
namo Is carved upon no lofty monu
ments. His splendid sacrifice must be
complete. Washington SUur.
A NATIONAL MOVEMENT.
Magnllnde of the Kffhrt to Change Ia,
angnratlnn Day. '
A nntlonol movement lins been
started from Washington by the In
auguration committee having for Its
object a change of the date of the
Inauguration from Mnreh 4 to tne last
of April. This Is not. a new move
nient, but we believe It is the first time
It bus been undertaken In n wny to
enlist directly the people's liillnence.
It bns been begun sulllciently far In
advance of tho meeting of 1nngres
to enable the promoters to bring 10
benr whntever weight the scheme mny
have acquired from their efforts.
An effort has been made lit enlist
Congressmen tn the fight. It does not
nppenr thnt the hitter nro friendly to
the scheme. They fool some embar
rassment on nccotint of the changes
which go along with the nlterntlon of
Inauguration day, and they are. to
some extent, perplexed by the tem
porary change In the term of the
presidency, for If the dale Is changed
the Incoming President must either
lose two mouths of his term or he
must cut thnt much from his success
or's term. Still, -f Congress can bo
assured thnt the people desire the
chnuge these embarrassments would
not prevent It. It Is not like some
other matters upon which that body Is
asked to legislate, nnd which more or
less Involve their own Interests. Leg
islators ore' apt to bo npnthellc con
cerning nlmost tiny question until It
Is brought homo to them that the peo
ple demnnd It.
Tho arguments for a chnuge have
boon given so often ns sciircely to need
repetition. One of the strongest Is thnt
the Inauguration has become Hie
grandest mid most Inspiring of nation
al functions, nnd (lie American people
literally pour iut to It from all quar
ters of the I'tiited States. Tills brings
ninny thousands from climates which
are quite the opposite of that which
Is likely to prevail In Washington on
the 4th of March, nnd subjects them
to contrasts very Injurious to health.
In n measure this applies to all who
attend tho Inauguration. There Is npt
to bo either 11 down-pour of rain or nil
ntmosphere which Is more uncomfort
able nnd more dangerous to health.
The people who have the patriotism
to attend the Inauguration nro entitled,
it would seem, to have their comfort
nnd health considered lu fixing the
dnte of the nugust event. Baltimore

The Tiger's Musical Knr.
A student of tinlmal habits recently
mado some interesting experiment
with music at the Zoo, says Tit-Bits.
A violin player iipproiichcd 11 sleeping
tiger, and at thu sound of tho music
the tiger awoke, and. raising lis head
without moving lis body, looked for
some time with fixed attention at the
player. It remained for 11 while In n
line attitude listening to Hut music,
nnd then, making a peculiar sound
thnt in tiger language does duty for
pjrrltig, It lay down again and dozed.
The soft music was played 011 while
the great beast lay as if lulled to sleep,
Tho violin wus thou put aside for thu
piccolo. At tho first note of the lU'W
instrument the tiger sprang to Its feet
nud rushed up and down the cage,
shaking Its head ami ears, aud lushing
Its tall from side to side. As the notes
becuuie still louder nnd more piercing
tho tiger bouuded across tho cage,
reared on its hind feet and exhibited
the utmost displeasure. -
The piccolo wus stopped, and a very
soft air played upon the flute. The
difference lu effect was setu ut ouee.
The tiger ceased to rush about, and
tho leaps subsided to a gentle, walk,
until tho animal came to the burs, uud
standing still and quiet once more lis
tened with pleasure to tho music,

STEEL MAKING IN INDIA.
Industry Did Not Thrive Because Ma
terials Were 8caree.
A statement recently made by Ixird
Qeorge Hamilton, to the effect that
he expected to soon see the manufac
ture of steel begun In India, has ar
rested attention In England. Great
Brltlnn' has long supplied the people
of her Indian empire with most of the
steel consumed In the latter country.
It Is rather surprising that the Indus
try of manufacturing steel should have
been bo long delayed In India. Ot
course, the Enst Indians have been
familiar with its use for a long period
and have produced It In limited quan
tities, but modern methods have not
hitherto been Introduced, although the
Iron ores of the empire are of rare
purity nnd may bo round In abund
ance wherever there are hills. At
tempts have been made by foreigners
to establish Iron works on a large
scale, but they have all failed, ow
ing to the difficulty of finding tho throe
elements of Iron working the ore, the
flux and the fuel sufficiently close to
gether to permit profitable working.
Presumably the extension of railroads
has put a- new phase on the problem.
Potatoes Scarce; Eat Rice and Corn.
Few people seem to be aware or the
fnct thnt. the potato Is merely a bunch
of starch and water, contributing
scarcely anything to the human body
but fat. Rolled rice nnd corn meal
not only hnve the fnt making qualities
ot the potato, but they nro excellent
brain and muscle bn.l.Tcrs. Potatoes
T2. per cent, of water nnd rice
T2'4 po rcent.; potatoes hnve 2.22 per
cent, of albuminous matter nnd rice
2.S per cent.; potatoes hnve 2U per
cent, of Btarclt. while rice has 24.10
per cent. Hut corn nnd rice contain
more phosphates nnd protein elements
than are essential in a healthy body.
With rice at 10 cents a pound and com
at 115 cents a bushel Back, a potato
fniiilnc should have no terrors for the
poor.
Women Come to the Front In Trade.
The prevalence of the woman buyer
Is, like ninny other Innovations In the
world of trade, chiefly attributable to
the development and Immensely wide
distribution of department stores.
Those beehives of universal supply are
rv longer features of the great cities
alone. Every town of any pretensions
throughout the length and breadth of
the country has one department store
or more, and every department Is con
ducted like a separate business. Uno
establishment of this character In tho
West had 37 buyers from Us various
branches registered In New York a
week ago. Most of them were women,
and all were conducting their busi
ness without the slightest indication
ot regard for what the rest were doing.
What Boer Wagons Are Like.
Referring to the large number of
wagons which are reported as having
been captured from tho Boers, a gen
tleman or South African experience
says that people had very little idea
ot what a South African wagon is.
They are huge lumbering vehicles,
each drawn by 10 oxen. A wagon and
its oxen extend for about luo feet,
and 50 or them would extend for a
mllo in a straight line. Of these
wagons there is an abundant supply,
for every country Boer has one or
more. It is doubtful as to whether
oxen have been taken with the wagons.
A thousand wagons, for instance,
would require lti.noo oxen. Many of
tho wagons have been taken without
their teams. In any case, It seriously
cripples the Boers to deprive them of
their wagons, and so many have now
been captured by our troops that there
cannot be many left.
Skyscrapers Are Miniature Villages.
The skyscraper, aside from Its mas

The architectural beauty will como
with time. Safety and convenience
were the first things considered. They
are comfortable, however, well lighted,
well warmed, well aired, and are sup
plied with all modern conveniences
running water, electric lights, service
ablo telephones, mail chutes and mes
senger service, while many of them
are further equipped with barber
shops, news stands and restaurants.
