NEGLECTED WIVES.
Very Mmiy of Them Have No One to Itluine
Hut Themselves*
"I am not at all surprised," said a
bright woman, "that some men find
other women more attractive than their
wives. In this age of progress and
newspapers women who do not live up
to the times must expect to he eclipsed
by those who do. The 'llannah .Jane'
theory set forth in Carle ton's poem is
exploded.
"The occasion for my disgust is that
twice within the past week I have met
wives who did not care for the frivoli
ties of life, and whose husbands I did
not blame for casting 'sheeps' eyes' at
more attractive women. The first wom
an came into the dining-room of a hotel
in a western city. She evidently
boarded at the place, and it was a
really good hotel. Every other person
in the dining-room was well dressed.
Her husband was well dressed. She
actually a wrapper, one such as
is sold in the stores at ninety-eight
cents apiece. It was of a dull peucock
green color, with yellow rings in it,
and intensified her sallowness. Her
skin and hair hivl a neglected look, the
latter brushed back so tightly that two
thin places near her temples were
plainly visible. Her whole appearance
was of the 'don't care' order. The
sooner she drops away from this mun
dane sphere the better it will be for
the husband, whoso eyes wandered
often to the tables where sat other
women, who were 'fixed up."
"The other case was that of the pres
ident of a great trades union, with
whom an interview was necessary.
His home was sought towards evening.
It was a neat brick house, the front
closely shut up, and it actually became
a necessity for the correspondent to at
tack the kitchen door before she found
anyone. This 'anyone' proved to be the
wife of the man, a young, black-eyed
woman, with u neglected child clinging
to her dress. She was, by all appear
ances, n born slattern. The interview
was short and not interesting. The
husband was sought in the office'of the
trades union of which he was chief of
ficer. He was a grand surprise, as ho
was n mun, not only of brawn and
brain, but remarkably well dressed and
thoroughly intelligent. He seemed
rather suspicious, but thawed easily
under genial influences. The truth in
advertently leaked out that In rarely
got home until midnight. I did not
wonder. I only wondered that he ever
went home. I don't think I would have
cared to go."—Cincinnati Tribune.
WINDOW FLY TRAP.
llow to llld 11 Ilooni Succchh fully of the
Trouhleaomc Insect*.
Flies are the pest and worry of all
tidy housekeepers, and how to rid a
room of them is an unsolved question
to many. This is quite easily accom
plished by taking advantage of the
flies' habit of flying to the window 01
place from which light is admitted,
and to accomplish this, darken all the
windows with a heavy shade, or any
material, cutting a hole in one of the
shades, over which is firmly pinned
a sheet of the common transparent fly
paper, and, if possible, have this lo
cated at one of the east, south or west
windows, from which the most light

may be obtained. It will be but a :
f short time ere the flies in the room will
be sticking to this paper in their effort
to be near the light. This is far easier
and more cleanly than placing paper
about the room for them to accident
ally light upon, or killing them with
poisoned liquid pyrethruin powder.—

Chmmo mid Fruit Sandwiches.
Have you ever tried cream cheese and
fruit sandwiches? For these mash any
fruit as you would the strawberries,
flavoring and sweetening them to taste.
Have ready some slices of bread (tiny
scones or slim cakes are delicious for
this) and lay on each a thin slice of
pure cream cheese sprinkled with cas
ter sugar, and on this again a layer of
mashed fruit, and put them together,
pressing them slightly on to each other.
Cream cheese, either sweetened or not.
is excellent as an accompaniment to
fruit, and so of course is clotted or Dev
onshire cream.
Human Face Flock.
A human face clock is on view in the
window of a St. Pctersljurg watch
maker. The hands are pivoted on the
nose and any messages spoken into its
ear arc repeated by a phonograph
through its mouth. It is said to be the
only clock of the kind at present in ex
istence.
NOVEL MEMORY JOG.
dust the Thing to Ilung on the Inside of
the Pantry Door.
The y lustration shows a novel way
to jog one's memory—rather more ar
tistic than the good old slate-and-pencil
fashion that has its disadvantages as
well as its lack of beauty. The memo
randum must always be copied from
the slate, and that, in itself, is quite an
item of disadvantage when a body is in
a great hurry. In this case, a small
live-cent pad of paper is used, and when
t he memorandum is needed it can be torn
off in a twinkling and tucked away in
one's pocket, or one's butcher's or gro
cer's pocket, if one is fortunate enough
to have the mountain come to Moham
med instead of Mohammed's being
obliged to put on her bonnet und go
down town to the "mountain!"
The tablet is designed to be hung on
the inside of the pantry door or in any
other equally convenient and conspicu
ous place—conspicuous anyway to the
housewife among her mixing bowls an 1
patty pans. The tablet in the accom
panying illustration is made of a piece
of prettily-grained hard wood, with
the little trailing vine upon it
burned into the surface of the wood
with a hot point. A cord and pencil is
attached to an upper corner, with twe
bits of loops to hold the pencil when
not in use. The word "memorandum''
or "wanted" is outlined above the pad.
A ribbon, with little bows at the points
of attachment, hangs the dainty little
affair to the door or wall. The paper
pads ean be renewed as often us need
ed, and so the can be a
"joy forever'" as well as a "thing of
i lieauty."
If it is preferred, a panel of pulp
; board covered with parchment paper
can be used instead of the hard-wood
; panel. Then the ornamentation could
he a simple water-color design. The
latter would be rather more effective
and delicate, but not as useful und j
time-proof as the first treatment sug- I
<m d. A housekeeper who has once
tried putting her memory into black
and white where it cannot possibly I
slip away from her to the dismay of
the soda-box 'or cream-tartar can, will
be very loath to go back to the old,
wearisome way of carrying her wants
about in her own busy mind until such !
time as they can be realized.—Country
(lentleman.
Long Chains Popular Again.
The fancy for wearing jewelry is
growing apace, and long watch chains
are becoming popular again. If the j
lovely jeweled ones are beyond the limit
of price, then the old-fashioned gold |
ones which have been in oblivion for i
years may be brought out for duty. It
is not at all necessary that there
should be ii watch at the end of the
chain, for the utility element is a
minor consideration. A brooch fas- j
tens it at the neck, and it may be fes
tooned lower down and lose itself in
the trimming of the dress, suggesting
a dainty little watch tucked away in
the folds.
A Furloalt.y Anion; Color*.
It is a curious fact that the color of j
yellow, whether it be vegetable or ani- !
mul, is much more permanent than any !
other hue. The yellow of a flower's
petals is the only color known to bot- j
nnists that is not faded or entirely dis- j
charged upon being exposed to the j
fumes of sulphurous acid. Take the 1
viola tricolor (heart's case) as an illus
tration. If exposed but a moment to
these fumes the purple tint immedi
ately takes its flight, and in the wall
flower the yellow shines ns brightly as
ever after all other enims have fled.
Twins at Sixty-Three.
In June, 1802, Mrs. Harrison Breed
love, of Carson, City, Nev., presented
her husband with a bouncing pair of
twins. This fact of itself is not "out
of the ordinary," but when it is known
that the lady was sixty-three years of
age at that time, and the husband over
seventy, it becomes an item worthy of
record in all annals devoted to oddities
respecting human beings. The Breed
loves are said to be the oldest couple in
the world that were ever so favored.

TOLD AT THE CLUB.
BY J A MILS KN API* REEVE.
[Copyright, 181)4, by the Author ]
CT KR II APS you
H will say that
piV-V/7 this is not ex
/\ \,* {) actly a club
yV Jy story. But my
[''"Sr excuse for giv
ting it to you is
that the Old
Beau told it to
me one night
while we sat in
the cozy, cur
tained alcove
just behind the
buffet. An d
long before he
had finished I
called the
steward to refill our glassess, for it
sent a creepy feeling down my hack.
"I have been a member of the club
for Ave and twenty years," said my
friend, "and in that time I have come
to know intimately the lives of many
men. Some curious things have
happened within these rooms, but none
so strange as this thing in the life of a
man who was once the very soul of
our inner circle. There! I did not
mean to use that word, for before I
have finished you may think it was
misplaced. But no matter. Other and
wiser men than we have had their
doubts.
"His name was Eugene Wallace. We
used to sit lien; and talk and drink 'B
and S,' just as you and I are doing
now. One night we fell to talking
about marriage.
" 'lf I wanted to marry any woman,'
said Eugene, 'which, thank heaven, I
do not, nothing should stand in my
way.'
" 'I can readily believe,' I said, for I
liked to urge Eugene on, 'that you
would permit no little matter of con
science or sentiment to stand in your
way—or prevent you from accomplish
ing your desires. Yet Ido think, my
dear fellow, that it is possible there
may be obstacles in this lifo which
even you will find it difficult to sur
mount.'
" 'Don't be sarcastic,' he returned;
'time enough to twit me with lack oi
conscience or sentiment when I have
set up a claim to the possession of
either.'
" 'Truly, Eugene,' I said, 'if a man
could only throw overboard some little I
things that hamper him from within, j
he might work to better advantage at
times.'
" 'Nothing but the externals arc i
worth considering," he replied, slowly.
'ln fact nothing is worth considering
—much.'
" 'Thinking,' he went on presently,
and in a manner calculated to give
force to his words, 'is a heavy task,
and it docs not make things go any

better at the end. If I wanted to mar
ry any woman, I should do it, and let
the future bring what it would.'
"It was not long after this that Eu
gene met Bertha Voisdene. 1 must
give you a word about her. Orphaned
in childhood, she had been carefullv
reared within cloistered walls, and at
the dawning of womanhood bad come
out upon the broader stage of tho
world as unsophisticated as a child.
Her youth and innocence charmed him
as tbo attributes of no other woman
had ever done. Now add to this that
her father had boon my boyhood's
friend, and it will help you to under
stand what follows.
"I soon saw how things were going
between them, and I know what Eu
gene's past had been. No worse than
yours or mine, perhaps, but, he bad
lived the life of a man of the world. 1
am not meddlesome, but I felt I must
speud a word of caution to him and f
did so.
I " 'Ah! 3*oll are about to turn moral
ist.' be said, lifting his eyebrows at
me. I hit do \*ou think it worth while
town tc your maiden effort on so un
j likely a subject?'
"'.Miss Yoisdcne,' I answered, not
heeding tliis, 'lias known so few men
i that 11113* passably decent fellow who
1 would make love to her violently
might interest her. There, is no doubt
I 3*ou can succeed. But 3*oll have been
through too many fires. If she should,
j later, find there was such a thing as
real passion in the world the result
might prove a little annoying for all
! concerned.'
"Eugene answered this lazily, as if
the matter after all did not much in
terest liim.
" 'I told you once,' he said, 'that con
-1 science should never stand in- my way.
The reason was—l think I have no
I conscience. Nor do I think I have that
other attribute which is supposed to
lc coordinate with it—the soul, 3*oll
know. That little place at the base of
the brain where the soul is supposed
to reside I verily believe is hollow. If
a clever anatomist ever has me on his
table I hope ho will not neglect to in
vestigate this matter.'
" 'What lias all this rigmarole to do
with Miss Voisdene?' I demanded,
growing impatient with his nonsense.
" *1 am coming to that,' he answered
quickly. 'By the way, it is curious,'
putting his hand to the back of his
head, 'that the saw-bones say the very
easiest place to cut off life is just hero,
right below where the soul—the incar
nation of life—should be. Now, it is
true,' bundling a long, thin knife such
as surgeons use, 'it is true that such a
thing as this thrust right in at the
base of the skull, would cutoff that
which we call life, on the very in
stant.'
" 'Yes, 3*es, I suppose it would,' I
answered, annoyed at the wa3 T he kept
from the question, 'it would sever the
spinal cord. But let us stop this idle
talk. I would like to know what
you intend in regard to Bertha Vois
dene?'
" 'Ah, yes,' lie said, laughing a little;
'I had forgotten the imjvirtant matter
in hand. I said I would many nn3'
woman if I wanted to. But I don't
want to, thank heaven. I love Bertha
Voisdene, and 1 think she loves me.
But you are right in what 3*oll have
said. lam not a fit mate for that pure
child.'
"With the last word, so quickly that
I could not interpose, he had driven the
knife with which he had been playing
lirect I 3* to the vital spot—and what had
once been Eugene Wallace, and ra3*
friend—was 011I3' a lifeless thing upon
the floor.
"All hour later I stood beside his
bod _v, nlono with the surgeon whom I
had summoned, and his words came
back to me with startling distinctness.
mws , 1
R|'r
"where is iie?"
i told this to the medical man, and,
with the cold passion of an anatomist,
he put his implements into play and
laid bare the base of tlie skuil and
icfUy removed the necessary nortions
of bone.
".lust as he bud done this the outer
door of the room opened, and I stepped
hastily toward it. Bertha stood there,
quiet, pale, beautiful.
" 'Where is lie?' she asked; 'ho told
me to come to him, here, at this hour.
We arc to fly, together.'
"This was the woman who had killed
my friend. I grew hard and cold to
ward her.
" 'Your punishment be on your own
hood,' I said; '3*oll would have thrown
yourself away for a man who had no
F'Oul. Look.'
"1 flung a book open upon the table
before her, and pointed to a passage
which the sawbones had just shown
me. These were the words:
" 'The seat of the soul is in the
Corpus Callosum, h spongy little body
at the base of the brain.' Then, mo
tioning her toward the form, 1 threw
back the wrappings and exposed the
incision that had just been made.
"'Look,' I said again, 'this man
never had a soul.'
"But poor Bertha Voisdene saw only
the face of him whom she had learned
to love, and the eyes, now wide and
staring, that had charmed her heart
II wa3*. And with a single hound she
fell fainting aeross the body of her
lover."
The Old Bean paused, while I hastily
swallowed a glass of something warm j
to still that creepy feeling. Then un
friend asked me, as usual:
"Do you want the end of the story?" j
I nodded, though half afraid to
hvaf it.
"Well," he said, quietly, "all this j
might have happened, I suppose, but
it did not. I know no happier couple
than my dear friends, Eugene and
Bertha Wallace. We will go around
and see them some night and tell them
this stoiy. And remember, young ;
man, you need never look for such j
grim tragedies among the records of
our club."
Afterward I asked the Old Beau why
he had done this thing to me.
"To show you fellows, who are so
fond of spinning yarns for the public,
that some others can spin yams as
well."
—The exports of Honduras consist I
mainly of cattle, mahogany and (lye I
woods, hides and rubber.

'There!" said the young wife proud
ly, as she deposited tin? hot plate care
i fully on the table. "That's the lir.->t

"So it is!" exclaimed her husband
enthusiastically, looking it over crit-
I ically meanwhile. "And as long* as it
