Teaching Girls to Rid Horses.
Almost all the little girls who ar
aught to ride horses these days are
put on cross saddles. They may or
nay not ride astride when they get
ilpnor, hut they ell learn that way.
't Is a safer position In the Brst place
rid It elves confidence never acquired
y a youngster in a side saddle. As
-ale the small equestrienne Is clad In
lloomers and the briefest of skirts,
jftcn she discards the skirt when the
esr.ons are given In the country. The
n;tructor holds her pony by 'lead
:i,t strap and, of course, he rides a
lc.-se easily able to overtake her

r the Brut few lessons Is the child's
!c!t buckled to the pommel of her
saddle. Until she acquires a Inn
cat she Is kept close enough to the
nslructor to be caught by him if she
itarts to fall.
That "Blue" Feellnfl.
The use cf the word "bluo" to de
olo itclaucholy or terror, as In the
.hrsoen to "feel blue," "blue devllj,"
i "bluo fi.;ik." and on so. Is not en
Ire'y tsnrntlvo, if we ere to credit a
occr.t inedlosl' writer.' The class of
-"locoir.eilM that includes fainting,
c.'tlRo, ta iFea, etc., is controlled by
e-ttln br,i'.i centers that also bring
bout a cort of cramp of the external
iu'rles cf the eye. The resulting
:oaprcrslon of the organ causes ob
ecu to !o; crny or bluish, and ultl

Hie use of the word, hsving a pbyslo

High Finance.
Two men, miserably clad, called on
the dean of a medical college In New
York.
"We are both on the verge of star
vation, sir," the spokesman said. "We
are well on In years and it Is clear
that we haven't much longer to live.
Would you care to purchase our
bodlos for your dissecting roomf"
T'a denn hesitated.
"I: Is en odd proposition," he mut
tered. '
"But It Is occasionally done," said
the spokesman in an eager voice.
"Well," said the dean, "we might
arrange It What price do you askT"
"Over In Philadelphia," said til
spokesman, "they gave us $40."

"Ay tink we naad noder mans."
"Co on with you," replied th boss,
"two men are enough for that work."
"Ay tink we got only one."
"Where is JohnsonT" asked th
boss.
"Ay tink Tonson be quit."
"Ou'.t! Wtere did he go?"
"Well, Yorson he drop in reerer ba

APFLCS AND SHRIMP PILAU.
A Dish which Stands Ft th Hesd of
American Vlr.rds.
"Most people will agree," says th
New York World, "that the apple is
the king of fruits. It is good to ent
as it comes from the tree. It can be
prepared in many ways for the table.
Pressed by the old-fashioned process
It makes a superior beverage. It Is
more than merely healthful. To many
people it Is an appctlzor, a relish, a
food and a medicine nil in one." This
Is another way of saying that the ap
ple Is to the fruit kingdom what the
shrimp la to tho Bheiifiah kingdom.
The shrimp has all these advantages
except one; it cannot bo presned Into
a beverago, but the problhltionlsts are
about to deprive the apple of that vir
tue. In the mean tlr.io the shrimp
pilau, when composed of South Caro
lina rice and Charleston shrimp,
stands at the head of American dishes.
It is a dainty beyond compare. It Is
cheap. It Is filling. It Is nourishing.
For eight months In the year a man

Ways of Raising Money for Charity.
Th method of raising money for
charities by such means as the con
ferring of decorative coat labels on
"tag day," Is not altogether original.
Prom times Immemorial In China a
donation of 20,000 taels to charity has
secured for the donor the much-prized
peacock's feather, while for half thnt
sum a title of nobility Is conferred on
oxo's nncostors to tho third genera
tion. The late emperor of Brazil fol
lorcd the same method when erecting
a hospital In Rio de Janeiro. Having
fornd a difficulty In obtaining tho nec
essary fund3, he announced that th
title of "baron" was to be conferred
on every subscriber of 10.000 r.illrels,
and that of "count" on subscribers of
2j.000 mllrels. This announcement
produced the desired ellect, and tha
hospital was soon completed. The
opening ceremory was performed by
the emperor, and attended by a larjo
number of the newly ennobled, who
did not altogether relish tho words
inscribed in letters of gold on the
gablo of the new buildlns, "Human
Vanity to Human Misery."
Wealth In Peat.
The promise hold forth by a great
Installation In northwest Ccrmany, for
tbe utilization of the Immense peat
bogs that exist there, leads to the
suggestion In England that tho bug
Bug of Allen In Ireland raay next bo
come a great center of Industry. Th
German undertaking contemplates the
bringing of a large part of the bogs
undor cultivation, together with tb
conversion of the peat Into fuel, to be
employed In the development of eleo
trlcal energy for Agricultural pur
poses, as well as for supplying light
and power to a number of towns sit
uated within a radius of B0 miles. A
network of canals Is to be formed, to
drain the ground, and the peat
dredged out is to be utilized In th
way Just described. It Is estimated
that tbe gas produced from the peat
will furnish work to the amount of 600
horse-power hours for each ton, and a
large quantity of ammonia will be re
covered for us as manure.
Pretty Blow.
Horace I Moore was lieutenant col
onel of the noted Nineteenth Kansas
cavalry. He could lead men for a
longer period without rest, on a single
ration of cheerful good humor, than
any other ofilcer. Though not given
to jokes, be vas the reputed author
of as many astonlshers as Lincoln.
On time on the march, be sent an
orderly with a message to an ofilcer
at some distance. Before the man
was out of hearing Moore shouted:
"Hey, orderly! Come Lack here?"
He cam galloping back, sitting
limply In th saddle
Moore dropped his voice, and as
suming a half-confidential manner in
quired: "Orderly, In the course of
your lit have you ever seen a snail?"
"Yes, sir," was the astonished re
ply. "You met him, then," replied Moore,
"for you'd never overtake one!" Kan

Climbing Stair I Cood Exsrcls.
Climbing stair Is avoided by most
women a an unsafe exercise. Yet It
Is detrimental becauso of tb bad
way In which It Is done. The body
works to Its best advantage In lifting
It own weight, as In hill-climbing.
In mounting stairs, let the chest lead,
the body remaining normally erect;
ue the stair as a base upon which
tbe spring In the ball of the foot llfti
its weight With a full breath lift
the body as though by the elevation
of the chest. There Is a buoyance at
tending this exercise which removes
from it much ot its bad effects.

High-Pressure Gas.
In many European cities extensive
use Is being made of bigh-pressure

Inverted mantle burners, and In Ber

nesheim steel pipe. In sou, of the
systems the air is compressed, and in
one case pur oxygen is supplied to
the consumers. In London a type of
lamp called "self-Intensifying" is em
ployed, the air being compressed by
utilising tbe beat of the products of
combustion to operate a beat engine,
lit Vienna arc-lights are used to Il

To Hang- a Cl-.lrt.
Lay the dre!3 on tho table and pin
tho bottom up on tbe outbids of thn
skirt six and tbreo-eiKhth inches. This
is the amount that will be taken up
by the tucks aud finiEh around the
bottom of the cklrt. The skirt Is hung,
however, before the tucks aro put in,
and I think 1 can nial-.e it quite clear
to yon why this must bo so. Jsuy
peop'.o have a slight inojularlty lu
the siro of their hips; others have
prominent abdomens or Hat backs.
These ihlngs will prevent a Bltlrt from
hanging absolutely oven at tho. first
To Keep the Skirt Bottom Evan,
fitting. If any change is mndo In th
bottom of tho skirt a corresponding
change must be made in the position
of the tucks. For instance, suppose
on hip Is much larger than tbe other.
Th skirt would have to be lengthened
over that blp and tho tucks lowered
in that one place to keep th line
Ten.
After you have pinned up the bot
tom of the skirt, put on tho dress and
have It carefully fastened, especially
at the girdle. The best way to have
the skirt bung Is to stand on a table
and let soma on raoasui o one, two or
throe Inches from the table up on the
skirt, as shown In the illustration.
Use a piece of cardboard with the
desired distance from tho floor nicked
In it The person who is hanging tbe
skirt should move around it, marking
every few Inches with pins. When
the dress is taken off, turn It Insld?
out and baste an even line through
these merits on the sMrt only not
through the turned up portion.
