According to the St. Paul Globe a man tvlio spent a couple of hours the other day waiting for his wife at a bargain sale was asked by his better half after they had escaped what he thought was the cheapest thing he saw, and he was not far from right in saying that he was. Then 1 is unusual activity among in ventors at present in the effort to produce machines for mathematical purposes, and perhaps the largest number of applications received at I the patent office for any one line of j inventions these days are patents for I improvements on adding machines. One of the amusing features of a popular farce comedy is the stealing of a hot kitchen stove, but it remained for some enterprising Montana thieves to get away with S3OOO worth of gold amalgam red hot from the retort. It would be Interesting to know how they suddenly reduced the tempera ture of this loot. Prom the list of peddlers have come some of the greatest captains of finance. Jay Gould began business as a peddler of rat traps, while Collis P. Huntington's first business venture was as a peddler of clocks. They sold excellent rat traps and clocks, and thus laid the foundation of their mam moth fortunes. The San Francisco Gall takes occa sion to throw this light on the charac ter of a newspaper: "It is a member of the social state with no lower func tion in morals than the pulpit itself, and, through its superior command of publicity, with a greater power for usefulness, provided it be controlled by purity and courage." There are many people who pass ' through exposures to contagion of ty phoid fever and kindred diseases with out suffering the least harm. This often leads them to deny the existence of the dangers on which physicians insist so strenuously. Professor Vlreliow.of the University of Berlin, has pub lished au article in which he accounts for the immunity of the many who withstand exposure by saying that a person in perfect health has no cause to fear microbes. It is a fact that many young men to-day desire to reach the goal of suc cess at once, and success, as they un derstand it, means the acquisition of great wealth. That such young men should rail at the modern methods of business is entirely natural, for, ex cept in rare instances, great fortunes are made only by exceptionally able men, who are ready if need be to work like a galley slave twelve or fourteen hours a day for the best part of their lives, observes the New York Tribune. President Charles P. Thwing, of Western Reserve University, Cleve land, recently oelivered an address be fore the University of West Virginia on "The American University and Pa triotism." He said, in brief: "The higher, the larger, the finer the motive, the greater is the appeal which it makes to the heart of the college man. The universities have ever been the nurse of the widest spirit of humanity. In feudal times they were a protest against feudalism, and in modern times and over the modern world they have embodied the aggressive spirit. Liberty and humanity have been and are the rallying cries of the college man. The universities were on the side of the people in the struggle of democracy in Prance. The universi ties fought for national unity in Italy. In Russia the universities represent the wisest and most serious endeavor for national enlightenment. In Ger many the universities are the least tol erant of all repressive measures which Impair the freedom of either teaching or learning." ASPIRATION. I envy not the sun His lavish lights But O to be the oue Pale orb of night, In silence and alone Communing with mine own! I envy not the rain That all The parching hill and plain; But O the ramll Night-dewdrop now to be, My noonday flower, for thee! —John B. Tabb, in Harper's Magazine. goooooooooooooooooooooooco § HOW BETTY WAS LOST. § <SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO fIMID little Dora ( dld not like usu ally to gQ down town shopping with her mother, but Betty adored it, as she used to say in curious im itation of the talk of older girls. Dora was twelve years old, and had been down town so many times that there was no longer nn y novelty in It; while Betty was only five, and had hardly ever been at all. Neverthe less, when mother proposed the trip one fine October morning, both little girls were pleased, Betty on general principles, and Dora because she liked to select her own hair ribbons, and also because she wanted to see the display window at Lawson's store. "The girls Were talking about it at school," she said. "Harriet Graham said I just must go down. Each day they lit up the window differently. Yesterday it was a kitchen, and Har riet said there was a little girl in it who played cook. She swept up the room, and she cooked things on the stove, and she scrubbed the kitchen table, and she washed the dishes in the dearest dishpan and dried them on pink and white glass towels. Day before yesterday, when Lillian saw it, it was a parlor, and the little girl played she was a lady and wore a long dress and all sorts of things." That was very exciting for Betty, and it was a contented party that took the electric car, rode through the Sub way, which still seemed to Betty like some mysterious, enchanted cave, and started on the brief tour of inspec tion and shopping which Mrs. Warren had planned. They bought Betty's shoes and hat and Dora's ribbons and gloves before It became convenient to pass by the wonderful window, which in the minds of the children was their chief goal. It equalled and even sur passed their hopes. "There, now, Betty Warren!" said Dora. "Did you ever in your life see anything sweeter than that little girl in the nursery? See, she is dressed like a nursemaid to-day, taking care of the children! Look at the twin brass beds, and that precious cradle with the fluffy pillows and the silk coverlet! Don't you wish you could be an advertisement little girl, and do nothing but play with such lovely things?" Betty said nothing. She was taking in all the delights of the nursery, and bad no words of comment ready yet. The wide window was furnished like a small room, and the little girl, who was just then making up a bed, was Jtist about Betty's size. Very cunning she looked In her nursemaid's cap and apron, with a soft frill of muslin about her neck and the quaint arrangement of her hair. All the furniture of the room was fascinating, but the crown ing charm here, as in every real nur sery, was the children It contained— the doll figures which seemed to give the tiny nursemaid so much care. She rocked the baby in its cradle—in different to the wise instructions given by those who know better—dressed and undressed dolls that took the place of older children, showed a black Dinah how to put a log prop erly on the grate fire, and once she even found It necessary to make the little boy doll stand in the corner for being naughty to his sister. Mrs. Warren and Dora both gazed with great interest, and Betty was wholly absorbed. "Oh, what a happy little girl she must be!" she murmured softly. "I don't know about that," said her mother. "It must be hard to turn play into work. She looks as earnest over it as, Dora, does over her arith metic problems. I should think this crowd of persons looking at her would make her nervous. I feel sorry for the little thing." "Well, any way, mamma, they draw the curtains every little while to give her rest," said Dora, comfortingly, as they turned reluctantly away. They stopped for an ice-cream soda before taking the cars for home, and it was here that Mrs. Warren met an old friend of hers with her daughter Lillian. "It greatest piece of good for tune tliat I have met you," said Mrs. Hathaway. "I have Just been trying to reach you with the telephone. Our old friend and schoolmate, Susan Haskell, Is coming to luncheon with me, and I want you to come right home with me now, for she Is to be In the city only about four hours, on her way southward." Mrs. Warren was pleased with the thought of seeing her old friend, but hesitated a little about the children. "Of course, Dora, cau go home alone all right," she said, "but I wish Betty wore not here. She is such a little fly-away you must keep tight hold of her." "Oh, Mrs. Ilathaway, mayn't Lil lian come to luncheon with inc. If mamma Is going with you?" asked Dora, eagerly. Mrs. Warren seconded the invitation, and the three children were finally left to go home by them selves. After that, Lillian had one or two errands to do in the uighborhnod, and then the girls went to the ilorist's to leave an order from Mrs. Hatha way. But at last they were fairly started toward the subway entrance, where they meant to take the cars. Suddenly, at the same minute, both girls missed Betty. Neither could tell how it happened. She had been skip ping from one to the other, holding now Lillian's hand and now Dora's, saying little, but making her presence constantly evident. And now she was gone. "Why, she had hold of my hand when 1 was at the florist's!" "Yes, and she went out to the front of the store to see those Japanese flowers." "Was It before then that we met the man with the balloons, and she wanted one?" "Oh, dear, I don't know," said Dora, almost crying. "We must go back and look for her." Then a happy thought occurred to Lillian. "Perhaps she went back to Lawson's to look In the window again. Don't you remember how she wanted us to go back for one more look?" So the girls hastened to Lawson's, finding the usual crowd before the window, but no sign of Betty. Then they went straight to a policeman and told the whole story, and then there was telegraphing to the central station, and the policemen were noti fied to be on the lookout for a little girl, five years old, yellow hair, blue dress and a little black silk bag in her hand. It was Dora's first Impulse to start for her mother. But Lillian and the policeman advised her to wait a little longer, and the policeman, sure that the little one could not have strayed far, began a systematic walk up one street and down the next, the girls following and looking into all tlie stores. "Someliow, I cannot help thinking all the time of Lawson's," said Dora, finally. "Let's go back there once more, nnd then, if we do not see her, I will go straight to mother, though I know I shall die if I have to tell her Betty is lost—poor, little frightened thing, as I know she is this minute!" So to Lawson's they went again, and mingled with the crowd in front of the window, but no Betty was there. They were too disconsolate to look inside, and the crowd, which seemed bigger and more amused than ever, hustled them along. They had almost passed, when suddenly there was a little stir, and a sharp rap on the glass made them turn their bewil dered eyes, nnd there, with a doll in each arm, the rocking chair from wl\ich she had risen still swaying back and forth, with shining eyes, brimming over with fun and excite ment, her yellow hair tossed back and her cheeks aglow with delight, was Betty, not frightened, not troubled, but supremely, radiantly happy. Dora and Lillian stood motionless with amazement, and if Lillian at least felt that she would like to shake the unrepentant cause of all their suf fering perhaps she is hardly to be blamed. But in Dora's mind the joy of beholding again her little sister, alive and uninjured, banished every thing else. An attendant who was watching from the inside then beck oned the girls in, and they heard the wliolo story. Betty had walked in all alone, and going up to a clerk an nounced unhesitatingly her desire "to be an advertisement." He was sur prised to see so small a child alone, and asked her if she were lost. "Yes, I suppose I'm lost, but they'll find nio pretty quick, and I want to be an advertisement while they are hunt ing." The clerk laughed, and called to a gentleman who was just passing in the nisle of the store. "Mr. Harris, here's an applicant for the position of window girl, and I think she'll make a good one." When Betty had repeated her story and told her name, the gentleman had lier take off her jacket and hat, and lifted her carefully to the big win dow seat. "They'll find her quicker there than anywhere else," he said. "Besides, it will please her, and her mother is one of our best customers. It isn't a bad advertisement, indeed, to have the daughter of Hon. Hamilton Warren as one of our employes." And he laughed as if he enjoyed tlie joke. The girls must have passed the first time before the preliminaries were settled. "I hope you'll like it," said the child wiio yielded her undesirable place to Betty. To Betty it was anything but undesirable, however. She felt that her time was short, and simply set to play with all tlie single-nilndedncss and apparently all the unconsciousness with which she would have played in her own room at home. "Well, I knew she was never shy in her life!" gasped poor Dora, divided between joy at the recovery and shame for Betty's shortcomings. "But I never dreamed of her doing a tiling like that! How could you run away from us, Betty?" she said, reprovingly, as tlie child's jacket and hat were being restored. "We were dreadfully frightened." "Didn't run away," was the coaxing answer. "Didn't run away at all. I took hold of a lady's dress, and I thought it was you, and I wns turning my head to look at the balloons. And when I looked around it wasn't you, and the lady looked cross at me, and this was Just next door. And I couldn't cee you, and I had to come Just as tliey were leaving tlie store, accompanied to the door by several admiring clerks, the gentleman who had given the desired permission to I Betty came up. "But we always pay for our adver tisements, my dear," he said. And he handed Betty a generous box of choc olate peppermints and a bright, new, shiny ten-cent piece, and Betty went home as happy as a queen.—Christian Register. FILIPINO DWARFS. Some Curious IMvnrfs in tlie Pliillp pine Island*. President McKinleyrecently received from Professor Dean O. Worcester, of the Philippine Commission, a very interesting account of the curious black dwarfs of the Philippines. There are about 25,000 of these pigmies, he says, and they are known as Negritos. They are to be found of pure race in the provinces of Bateau, Luzon and also in Northeast Mindnnao. Some of these have been gathered into settle ments by missionaries, who are try ing to civilize them, while others, mostly half breeds, live near Chris tian towns, where they do a little work from time to time, for which they re ceive payment in the form of trinkets or cloth. Sometimes a Christian fam ily will buy a dwarf child and rear it for a servant, but usually it escapes to the forest as soon as it is big enough. These dwarfs are remarkably like monkeys. According to Dr. Becker, the average stature of the men is four feet eight inches, nnd the women are three or four inches shorter. Their chests are not well developed, and they have no calves to their legs. Each big toe is widely separated from the others, and the three outer toes of each foot are turned inward, as In some monkeys. Their feet are large and clumsy, and their hair, instead of growing all over the head, is distrib uted over the scalp in regularly scat tered clumps. Their heads are appar ently too large for their bodies, and the mop of wool which they wear accentuates this effect. So monkey like are they that they counterfeit apes In a startling manner, their jaws projecting far beyond their noses and their faces deeply wrinkled, like mon keys'. The men wear no clothing except a cord drawn around the waist, from which hangs u small piece of cloth, whereas the women wear an apron made from the bark of a tree. Marriage among the Negritos is in dissoluble, and only one wife is al lowed. Matrimonial customs vary among them, but usually the ceremony of marriage is unlike anything of the kind to be seen anywhere in the world. It takes the form of a test of marks manship, the young woman herself being the target. She stands about fifty yards from her lover, holding under her arm a mass of palm leaves. He fires a blunt arrow, and if it passes through the leaves without striking the girl the two are married. If he fails the un ion is forbidden, but as the Negritos are very expert with the bow such a thing rarely happens. The Negritos are very independent, and neither the Spaniards nor the Malays have ever been able to sub due them. Of a gentle nature, they never kill n human being wantonly, but they regard with suspicion tire Christianized natives, who often mal treat them. If attackod, they defend themselves vigorously, and in retalia tion will rob and destroy the fields of their enemies or even assail their vil lages at night To their children tlioy give the names of birds, plants or insects. They cannot count above ten, nnd, while able to distinguish col ors well, have no words for them. If a plague breaks out, such as cholera or small pox, they are apt to desert the sick. An ICplgodo In Ills Career. There is a middle-aged, unmarried man in this town who lias the making in him of a confirmed old bachelor in such proportions to his other com ponent parts that nothing short of di vine interposition can save him. He lias been courting a young woman for a year or more in his peculiar fashion, and last Sunday night it occurred to him that an appropriate moment had arrived for him to make a formal pre sentation of his claim and have it act ed upon. It happened at a picturesque resort in the mountains of Loudoun County, and the soft summer air nnd the quiet valleys stretching miles away at the feet of the lovers should have roused all the romance in man's nature, and made a declaration of this cort of a poem and a fnutasy. He skipped all that, however, and came to the momentous question pretty much as a hunter conies to a fence, "Miss Kntherine," he said, after a very little "mooning," "will you be kind enough to marry me?" "No, sir," she replied, with commend able promptness and indignation. "Indeed; why not?" he Inquired con siderably surprised at her answer. "Simply because I don't want to." To most men this would have been in the nature of total extinguishment, but this man is different. "Well, well," he said, apparently studying out the proposition, and not at all overcome by the young wom an's answer, "this is what I would call an episode in my career—an epi sode, Miss Katherine, being something that is entirely unexpected." Then he began talking about some thing else, nnd she got up and went into the house.—Washington Star, Tlie Merlin Muicum.

SOOO. j CIRL ART STUDENTS IN PARIS. Some Facts About Tliclr Experience. and Expense Accounts. "The average girl art student in : Paris lives about as quiet a life as the American college girl," says Maude Andrews in the Woman's Home Com panion, writing from her own experi ence of "The American Girl Artist in Paris." "The tuition at the schools ranges in price from seven to fourteen dollars a mouth, but the price of an artist's materials cannot be estimated, for these are the items that make the study of art appallingly expensive. ! If an artist needs certain paints, she | cannot stop to consider if others j wouldn't do as well, or if she couldn't : get on with less, as she considers the I purchase of remnants at a bargain j counter. The paint must be had at any | cost, and that is why girl artists often j look as hungry and seedy as the Mar- I ehioness when first discovered by Dick ! Swiveller. It is safe to say that no | girl ought to come to Paris to study I art unless she has an assured allow j ance of fifty dollars a mouth, and this I amount will just about enable her to l meet the expenses of daily living, tui i tion and materials. A great deal has j been said about the folly of American | girls coming to Paris on limited means, j but the impracticability of such a ven ture lies not so much in this drawback | as in the pose and lack of practical ; sense in many of the art students them selves. The one great pose in art is | the scorn of pot-holing. Most young ! artists, for instance, consider It to i bo a degradation of their art to turn ; their talents toward illustration, [ whereas it is one of the most remuner j ntive things an artist can do. It may i be said very truly that no poor girl \ should come to Paris to study art un- I lesstshe is willing to turn her ability j in the direction of pot-boiling now and j then, in order to supplement her allow -1 ance. There are so many needs for ! money in Paris. It is a veritable Circe of cities that changes its lovers not into | swine, but into the most enchanting j butterflies, if there is only a little ex- I tra money to be had for dress. A girl I who is very poor and cannot make a j little pin-money often gets rather hope | less and depressed, for there is noth ; ing so forlorn in Paris as shabby at tire." Medals For Women. Few women have received high awards for exhibits in the fine arts at. the Paris Exposition. Out of more than one hundred and twenty gold medals accorded to French and for eign painters In oil and water color only four have gone to women, Miss Cecilia Beaux, of this country, is one of these. Miss Beaux has shown open air studies at the Societe Nationale des Beaux Arts for the last three or four years. The other women who received gold medals are Mine. Virginia De mont-Breton, Mile. Baily and Mile. I Breslau. Mme. Demont-Breton and Mile. Baily are both of France, and | Mile. Breslau of Switzerland. A silver medal was awarded to Miss Elizabeth Nourse, of this country. Lady Alma Tadema, of England, and one woman representative from each of the countries of Denmark, Holland, Spain, Russia and Switzerland, and four of France, also received silver medals. Only one other English wom an obtained an award for painting. This was Jliss Flora lteid, who re ceived a bronze modal. Eight bronze medals were awarded to women in the department of sculp- I ture. In tlio department of engraving two silver and seven bronze medals were nil received by French women, with the exception of one, which was given to an Hungarian woman. In lithography three French women, one Japanese woman and one Finnish woman received silver medals. Fall Couture. The arrangement of the hair at the back for evening wear requires that ! it shall be always pushed as far for ' ward as possible straight up from the nape of the neck to above the crown of the head, but it is then pulled down again so that the soft waves will show. The ears are almost hid den by this arrangement of hair. There is a part sometimes at one side of the head, or just in the middle, and then the lialr is pulled down on either side of the part so that it looks full and soft, and, of course, thick. This fashion of soft, full hair is, as a rule, more becoming than a more severe style, but the trouble Is that the hair i requires to be kept in most perfect or der. It must be well brushed and washed often, and always well combed, otherwise it looks untidy, and un untidy head is more unfashionable now than ever was known before. Glossy, well-brushed locks with a slight wave through them make every woman look well, but a mass of hair all ruffled up and looking as though rats had been in It is a most untidy way of arranging the hair. It is un becoming and not in the least smart. —Harper's Bazar. For Lone Xvcla. It is no longer fashionable to have any trimming at the back of the col lar, but women who have long necks, or whose necks are beginning to look thin, find it is a great advantage to tie a piece of tulle around the neck with a bow at the back. This gives a pretty Quisli to a stiff ribbon stock collar, and is almost invariably be coming. Only white or black tulle should be used. For evening the same thing is often seen worn even with a Jeweled collar or a handsome neck lace, and it seems to coftcn any hard lines in a most satisfactory fashion, Boris and inches worn around the neck are very sofV Cut not very full unless Intended fof quite cool weather. A pretty one is made of Liberty satin or chiffon trimmed with bands of wnite lace and with a little pleated edge of chiffon. This fastens at the throat and has long ends edged with lace that hang down over the front of the gown.—Harper's Bazar. [Fitfiluoiig In Shoe*. There are to be more decided changes in women's shoes this fall than for two years past. The bulldog toe is on the decline and is being re placed by the pointed toe. Accom panying this change will be a radical difference in the entire sole, so that the inward slant of the sole will ba replaced by stralghter lines. Only here and there are shoemakers found to be frank enough to admit that a change is coming, since naturally they are anxious to dispose of the old stock of goods, but "smart" bootmakers pre dict that by spring the bulldog toe and accompanying features will bo things of the past. A new heel, called the "Cuban heel," lias appeared. It Is high, but lacks the graceful curves of the French J It is likely to be worn to a considerable extent for some years to come. Tan shoes have their best use with short skirts. Worn with long, dark skirts they soon show the effects of the coloring matter in the velveteen with which most skins are bound. .Makes a Living: Mark In is Llnnn. How many odd little trades ingen ious women find to earn their bread; In fact, as lias been said before, If there is a thing a woman can do bet ter than lier neighbors she needs only to develop it into a specialty to have a sure livelihood. A Cliieugo girl, who Is soon to oe married la the East, whence her family came, writes that, like all Boston brides of high degree, she is having her linen marked liy Mrs. B. Tills quaint little old lady entirely supports herself by writing names in Indelible Ink 011 the underwear, sheets, tablecloths, etc., of Boston swelldom. She-lias become a fad. Iter narrow quarters look like a white goods ware house, and smell like a chemist's from a preparation she puts on the lineij to give it a smooth, paper-like sur face. She is to be found any day with lier old fingers cramped about the special pen she uses in marking small, neat initials or elaborate mono grams which no one else can equal.— Chicago Evening Post. Fashionable Jewelry. More jewelry thnn ever Is being worn. Perhaps the outlines of the modern French bijouterie are rather barbaric In tendency, but how deli cately fine and ralsonne is the work manship, which softens the freedom of the original conception and per fects each detail with minutest skill! Tp realize this one must have close ly examined the Jewelry exhibits at the Paris Exposition. The lead of the great French jeweler, I.allque—that most modest artist, who has revolu tionized all modes in jewelry for the moment has been freely followed, perhaps too freely, for there has sprung up a series of Imitators, who are far from achieving the result that their originator has realized. But the result is that gold and silver In many shades and enamel of most entrancing hues have taken the place to a great extent of the precious stones, especial ly In ornaments for day wear. Unchanging Fashions in China. Chinese fashions seldom change, and a woman of the Celestial Empire dresses to-day as her great-grandmotli er dressed at lier age. If she Is rich she Is robed entirely In silk. Her first garment is a sort of npron or plain piece of silk tied around the waist and overlapping behind. Then come the under jacket, over Jacket, trousers and apron. If she wishes to appear par ticularly irresistible she covers her face and neck with a paste made of wot rice flour, which when dry gives her a deathlike appearance. While it is still soft she removes the paste from her eyes and lips with a wet sponge, and, moistening lier finger, draws It three times around her throat, leaving three rod marks. She always ' carries aliout with lier a stiff, flat fan and a powder box with a litle mir ror in the lid, by which she can see to touch periodically her face with the powder puff. Odd. and Ends of Fashion., The newest thing In bodices includes "spencers." They are made of lace, particularly the old Irish point. Other laces in demand are black Chantilly f and old Greek laces. Buttons are to ■ have a revival. Triangle and lozenge shaped buttons made of malachite, jade and initiation rubles are popular. There are also silk ones covered with applique. But the fancy of the mo ment Is for gold buttons, particularly on waistcoats. Old hunt buttons are much sought after and command high prices. A novel amulet consists of two silver trinkets, one a bust of Cry ano do Bergerac and the other an ea gle holding Napoleon's hat. They are united by a thin twisted metal pin. 1800 and 1000 Fashion.. It was noticeable during the sum- I mer season, says the Loudon Globe, that there was a distinct resemblance between the fashions of the past sum mer and those depleted in the pictures of Reynolds, Gainsborough, Lawrence and ltomuey. A large proportion of the muslin gowns were finished sim ply by a soft fichu around the shoul ders, leaving the neck bare. A nar row baud of black velvet and a string of pearls encircled the throat. Sleeves ; were close-fitting or else bell-slinped to the elbow, with transparent under sleeves, such as will be found in any old cheat of ISOO dresses.
