In addition to the stereotyped du ties usually performed by men In a bank many women hive made new positions for themselves, some as ni'P'jifi uf women's deT-nVT ..'Is. (there they explain carefully and pa tiently the mysteries of banking to other women, to whose minds any thing that pertains to finance seems QMite as puzzling as the black arts. Such a woman, says the Bookkeep er, must know thoroughly every detail of banking, for her duties will cover a wide field from making out a check for some dear old lady to explaining the uses of a letter of credit to a par ty of school teachers contemplating their first trip abroad. Other v.-omen have taken upon themselves :he work of making a per sonal canva:s of the tenements for the savings of the poor, thereby ac complishing in addition to their duties very practical sort of charity In teaching those who most need such Instruction something of the difficult art of Baving. Nerve Timing. A Btrange instance of the care and minuteness with which the human body Is now studied, in the effort to understand Its powers and functiona better. Is furnished by a paper mad recently at a meeting of the Royal so ciety In London on the "Rapidity of the Nervous Impulse In Tall and Short Individuals." Even the difference in time required for a "nerve telegram" to traverse the bodies of different per ms Is regarded as a matter of act :Utlflc Importance. A series of observations has shown hat the length of the nerve does not i fleet the velocity with which an Im pulse passes between the brain and he extremities, and consequently that n-nre than if It Is short. It follows that a short man should feel a step ip his corns quicker than a tall man; Set the difference is so slight that the offender has no better chance of es- :e in one case than in the other. The Sunday Magazine. "The Auld Brig o' Doon." Lord Roseberry has done well to protest against the proposed demoli tion of the Brig of Ayr. The town ouncll of Ayr calls It rebuilding. But rs Lord Roseberry says, the resources of engineering should be adequate to preserve a structure which la almost sacred. Indeed, were there no eentl ment left for Burns in the land he did bo much to celebrate, the accus tomed cannlness of the 8cot should suffice to save a landmark that la yearly coined Into good money. How many travelers would care a rap for Ayr without the old bridge? Provi dence Journal. Suspicious. The father of Judge W. H. Wad hams had a chicken-coop and a dog and a stable band. It began to look to Mr. Wjdhams as though some one had discovered the combination. Bo he kept the coop and the stable band, but be got a new dog. Next day the bent old negro who groomed the Wad bams' horses came to him. "You los' you affection foh me, boss?" he asked. "No, Sclplo." said Mr. Wadbams. "I like you aa well aa ever. "Then," said Sclplo, peevishly, "w'yn't you tie Old Rover In de chicken-coop, 'atid of dat new dorg?" Feeding School Children. Profiting by the experience of aeT eral American cities which provide food at cost for their school children, the London county council has about decided on a similar system in some of the schools or the metropolils. Par ents having asked that meals be sup plied at school to tbelr children whe are not "necessitous." the county council authorities are planning to irrant tbe applications, payment to be made in advance, the charge to be i Alrulated to the nearest farthtn"."

London Chronicle. Logic That the Dogmatic Never Could Refute. " Colonel Ed. Butler, the veteran 8L Louis politician, baa been In falling health the past few years. On his last visit to Kansas City he was talking to an old friend, a physician. "Doc." aald the Colonel, "I wish you would tell me wiat la the matter with my right leg. The left one la In good shape, but this right one has been growing gradually weaker for two years and at times it pains me a great deal." Questioning developed that he had not had a fall or strain, or hurt tbe suffering member In any way. "It can be caused by only oue thing," said the ph; fclclun, "and that la old age. Tou must remember. Colonel, you are no longer a young man." Old age. hell!" exclaimed Butler, "isn't the other leg the aame age?" The physician has never been able to Der the homely logic of the " vil lage blacksmith." Contradictory Evidence, "Dr. Fan." said the office patient, "ii.y name la Griddle. I'm troubled lately with headache, and I'd like to E; leiluf. It can't be from my eyes, for they're all right." "Let me see, what Is your voca tion?" "I'm a baseball umpire."
