NOVEMBER 1, 1897. The "Advanced" Woman. Most women, and I am afraid a good many mem, too, imap-Lie that book learning is education. Bays the countess of Desart in. the Na tional Review. It never strikes tliem tha.t if it were so our book worms would be the great leaders of humanity. They see games playing a great |Kirtin boys' schools, and they immediately wish these games introduced into girls' schools. They fancy that if only the girl could be taught as lire boy is taught slie would become, in spite of her dress, a man. This sounds a red actio nd ab surd um, but it is not, in plain language, to be understood of the people, the meaning of the clamor for girls'cricket and football, for a university education for girls, for the opening of all careers and ail professions to girls? Because boys come and go alone, and it is good for them to learn to fend for themselves, 1 therefore chaperons for girls should be , abolished. Because men in knicker- i bookers con travel ever so much faster without fatigue on their bicycles than women, therefore women should be made tio wear divided skirts, and they , will be able to go as far and as fast as men. Could anything be mo-re ; unconnected, more illogical than this set of propositions? Yeit they ; are warmly and strenuously advocated by women who take themselves most seriously. If you wish to realize fully ; the maze in which the "advanced" wom an has lost herself, tiakte her views about marriage. Listen to her argument that because, according to her ideas, the j "bargain," as she will probably call it, lias been too much in flavor of the bride groom; therefore in future it should be a great deal too much in favor of the bride. The contract on which the sanctity of the family and the wel fare of the rising generation mainly de pends, she thinks, should be one to be repudiated at will, for any ca.price, any whim. Above all, her old sphere, the home, is far too lowly, too humble, for nnj'one with the slightest talent to be wasted on it. It should be looked upon j as the last resource, the final refuge of the poor-splriited, the mentally iliesti- j tute. A recent letter from Dawson in the Alaska Miner says: "A funny thing oc- j curved the other night. A fellow fell out with liis girl, and they were eating at different tables in the restaurant. She told the waiter she wanted two eggs for her breakfast. Be overheard it and bought all the eggs in town, four cases, at one dollar an egg." If that girl should make up with that mean fellow sin would in all probability have to go short on eggs the balance of her days. Judge Giles, of Crawfordsvllle, Fla., Touch: for the story that a 32-pound cant<-loupy was cut at George W. j Smith's farm, and that eight people, i eating their fill, could not make way j with half of it. A Pawnee Indian- squaw, named An- I nie Whiten ing, is suing for a divorce and. asking that her maiden name, An-- . nie Come running, be restored* She thinks it i better to come running than to go flying. The real r. .me of Klondike, Mr. Hest wood states, is Throunduick, and the Indians say means "plenty of fish," while the miners transpose it to gold fish and say it means "plenty of gold." Once in awhile you meet a queer, old-fashioned sort of a man who has hopes of getting wealth before he dies by working for it. To Cur*- Constipation Forever.

Ilia .lilc Minlc In 1 i.tO Ileiill,' 1-VIII>HCN Stock*' 1 ittft ■-.** Performance in BtiKluttd—Will Make Chicago llin Home. 1 King of cyclists is little Jimmy ' Michael. Most marvelous is his record. ' Time itself was outstripped by the j Miniature Welsh boy at Willow Grove ' i rack, Philadelphia. Paced by a sex- ' :et and a quad, the youngster reeled i •ill a mile in 1:30 and thereby reduced ill former world's records for the dis lance. It is true that a Londoner, I. W. Stocks, negotiated a mile at the Crystal palace in 1:35 2-5, but he was guided over the route by an electric motor and, j of course, his feat cannot properly be j j reckoned among genuine cycling per- i formances. Should it be, Michael's deed | ; s'tauds alone in America at any rule. Cyclists have been expecting another notch to be clipped off the mile record and the majority of them looked to Michael to do it. .•teadily the tiny for eigner has been Improving since he first j sprang into fame in Europe early last year. Now the question is, will Michael < prove himself a greater racer than he i ! is now? Is he good, rash though the i 1 speculation may be, for 1:30? Can he , do that on n circular track, and if he j can, how fast can he travel on a straight away? Chicago wheelmen have been talking ; of little else than the Welshman's bril liant performances. Many of them are bold enough to predict that he will re duce still more the record and approxi- • mate,, if not reach, the 1:30 mark. Charlie Root, Fred Gerlacb and Jim ; Levey are leaders in cycledom and their opinions favored the idea tluit Michael j had by no means reached his limit. For years Lt has been the chief aim j of racing cyclers to attack the mile record. There have been all sorts of \ them, records for Hying and standing I starts, paced and unpaced, forwardand backward, professional and amateur, those of the old class A and class B men, ind so on. Now, the standard mile has generally come to be looked upon as JAMES MICHAEL. (Holder of the American One-Mile Bicycle Record. one made under the same conditions a • that of Michael—flying start, paced by | cycling machines without other aid.

He is a wee bit of a boy- half j inch more than five feet high. Lt is 33y s inches around his chest and it can be expanded only l/ 8 inches more. His legs are 30% inches in length, his arms i 17, his forearm 8%, his biceps 8%. His | weight is 101 pounds. Jle is 21 years ot age. The wonder was born in Wales j Credit for first "finding" him is given j to the noted English cycle trainer, ( Warburton. Tom Eck discovered him j la'ter and induced him to coine to tin- j , United Stales in the latter par; .. lSur. I Before that time he won a big lot of j important races, besides landing nttniei - j ous records for various European conn- i tries. Among his victims on the path ! were Jacqueiin and Riviere, Lesna. ; Linton, Buret, Gerger, Opel, Gougoh/. . ! and Uireny. ! Michael appeared in Chicago in tl. I early part of October, 1890. It was ut the dedication of the Garfield pail; i track, October 2. The live-mile record on that occasion fell to his lot, and for i ! days afterward he was feted us the j idol of Chicagonns.

To catch moles as the}' run through the underground passages they have I dug,-a new trap has a row of sharp lines attached to a sliding rod to drop ! and pin the rodent fast as soon as the trigger entering the hole is disturbed. j Shotguns can be changed into rifles by an auxiliary which slides inside the shot barrel and is fitted with a shell ejector, the rear of the inner barrel being of the same shape as the shot cartridge and carrying a flange so it fits tightly. in a new propelling device for bi- j ■ cycles two cylinder air pumps are at- | l lacked to tihe head of the machine to be operated by raising and lowering the handlebars. A compressed-air mo tor is geared to the driving sprocket wheel to run the machine. A safety pocket, which can be used in ; any garment, is provided on one side of i its mouth with a flat spring and on j the other side with a spiral spring, | which rests'on an elastic strip and presses tightly against the flat spring ; to keep tike pocket closed. ENTERTAINING BREVITIES. There are 22 allusions in the Bible j ; to the east wind, 19 of them being of a disparaging character, i The remarkable echo at Eagle's Nest, on the banks of the Killnrney, Ireland, repeats a bugle call 109 times, each clear and distinct. The island of MaLtia has a language of its own, derived from the Carthaginian and Arabian tongues. The nobility of the island speak Italian. The number of sheep in the world is estimated to amount to 550,000,000. Of this number between one-third and one half are believed to be merinos. A member of the British parliament cannot resign.* When he wishes to re tire he accepts the stewardship of the Chiltern hundreds, a nominal office in the gift of the crown and paying a salary of 20 shillings a year. No mem ber of parliament can remain in his sent after accepting a government ap pointment other than a cabinet posi tion, and this fiction of the stewardship has thus been perpetuated for at least GOO years. ABOUT THE FARM AND HOME. When cream is extremely rich it can be whipped more easily if a little milk is added to it. It will also whip more easily if it is well chilled. When ink is spilled upon linen try dipping the damaged material in pure incited tallow. The hot tallow seems to absorb the ink, and, after washing, the stain will be found to have disap peared. When the fingers are stained in peel ing fruits, preparing green walnuts or in similar ways, dip them in a strong ten, rubbing them well with a nail brush and afterward wash them with warm water and the stains will disappear. Grasses are always useful for table decoration. In order to have them "in stock," as It were, the heads should be picked just before they are ripe and dried in the shade. They will then keep well without dropping the seeds. ABOUT WOMEN AND MUSIC. ' Bach was very happy with his first j wife, and her influence in his music is [ marked. Beethoven's music was in many eas*** directly inspired by women. Mozart.Sphor and Weber werestrong- I ly influenced in their compositions by i their wives. Mendelssohn received his , strongest influence from his sister ! Fanny, whose compositions reflect the ; creative mind of her brother. Wagner's | sceoud wife exerted a marked influence | on his writings. ' The number of women composers is | very small, and the generally accented ! reason for this is that women lack the j 'Tenthe quality. As executants Vhov I develop more rapidly than men and j an interpret music readily, in spiti j .1 'tis the influence of women have c\ rrted ou music history is great. MONUMENT TO CRISP. R9u>l>le Slinff DiaftcnUMl to the Memory f the l'ts-B|enker. The first monument to the memory of the late Charles Frederick Crisp, ex speaker of the house of representatives and United States senator-elect, was erected recently in the center of the beautiful family plot in Onk Grove ceme tery. Americus, Ga. It is one of the sim plest shafts that mark the resting places of the nation's greatest men, but it is in thorough keeping with the life of him whose memory it commemorates. It is no-t elaborate or highly costly, THE CRTSP MONUMENT. (Recently Erected In Oak Grove Cemetery, Americus, On.) but simply a memorial of a wife's de votion and children's love. The mon ument is 17 feet high and is made of Italian marble. The east side bears the inscription: "Husband and Father." On the west side are the words: "Charles Frederick Crisp, born in Shef field. England, .January 29, 1845. died in Atlanta, Ga., October 23, 1896." The north side bears the inscription: "Speaker of the House of Representa tives of the United States, Fifty-sec ond and Fifty-third Congress." Cut in large letters on the base of the stone is the one word, "Crisp." This monument was erected by the immediate family of the dead states man. It is handsomely designed and beautiful in its modesty and simplicity. The life of Charles Frederick Crisp was simple to the degree that It was free from formalities and conventionalities, and the monument that stands at the head of his grave is intended to im press that fact upon the stranger who [ may be led by its ever-reminding pres j ence to recall the life and works of the distinguished dead. The stone was placed in position without any formal exercises on the part of the people, though hundreds flocked to the grave and watched the unveiling with un covered heads. TRAVELING NURSERY.

The traveling nursery takes up about as much room as a private state room. The walls are heavily padded and the floor thickly carpeted, so that the juve uile head need not Indicate the miles passed by the bumps gained. Over the floor are fastened little stools and rock ing chairs. At each end of the com partment. and firmly secured, are two cozy cots, on which the. smaller chil dren lie and watch the games of the TRAVELING NURSERY. (Scene In the Special Children's Compart ment of a Railroad Car.) older ones. Each ear containing the nursery attachment will carry a matron or nurse, who will be selected with a special reference to her ability to amuse nid care for her little charges, and she will have at her command supplies of milk, cookies and other edibles and drinkables dear to the infantile heart. She will'also have charge of a medicine i-liest containing a full assortment of the simplier remedies for childish ail ments. A miniature toy shop is an other adjunct of the traveling nursery and it will contain everything, from baby rattles lo picture books and fairy tales. An Atmospheric Pnrndoi. On the island of Sakhalin, off the east coast of Siberia, the cold winds and sea currents which circulate around it seem io have reversed the ordinary course of nature respecting the arrangement cf temperature. The air on high land and inountafas is usually coldest, while that near the sea level is warmest. In Sak halin the coldest air is found near the -en. and there the plants are of an arctic character, while in the lofty interior subtropical plants flourish on the heights in the mild climate.
