It is aet.dowzi rias a popltive foot by the
Ladiese Home Journal that women who
try to make themselves, look coquettish
in a sleeping cur and wear elaborate
negligees or lace -trimmed wrappers
whew extremely bad taste. Experience
has taught that a wrapper of soft flannel
in strtoes of black and blue, made in, the
simplest fashion. Is most useful. When
she is ready to go to bed, and the porter
arranges her birth for her, she goes to
the toilette -room, taking with her her
shawl•strapped package. She removes
her shoes and etockinas, puts on the
knitted slippers that she has taken out
of her bag, removes any garments which
she pleases, and assuming her wrapper,
which has beets folded in her shawl
strap, repairs to her berth. After fasten-
ing the buttons of the curtains, she dis-
poses of her clothing as best she can,fold-
ing each article smoothly and carefully.
and placing her money, watch and
tickets in her wrapper pocket. And
then she should try to rest -the porter
will call her in gbod season and her
ticket will not be asked for during the
night. In her shawl strap, which shows
ag its outer wrapping a shawl or travel-
ing rug, she may have her own pillow if
she desires, it. But this is riot a neces-
sity,'as the cars are supplied with linen
that is usually fresh and clean. In the
morning the wise girl will put 00 her
stockings and shoes in bed, leaving the
lacing or buttoning of them till later.
Then she will assume her other garments
and repair to the toilet roam, where she
should as expeditiously as possible make
herself neat, trim and fresh, that her
friends who are to meet her may not
find her dusty nor travel -stained. This
she should do quickly, that she may not
be classed among the women who are
the dread of all considerate women on
the parlor cars -the womeu who take
and hold possession of the toilet room as
if it were a fort.
Practical Mules for Treating Criminals.
1. A criminal is like any other man,
2. Too great imp:,t tante has been attach-
ed to the matter of heredity, bout in
the judgment of criminals and in their
treatment. 3. Moral traits are not in-
herited, except in so far as they are
directly traceable to physical conditions.
4. 'fhe ratio of punishment to crime is so
small as to give the criminal such a
chance of escape tie he distinctly counts
to his advantage. 5. The criminal is it
criminal of his own volition, and feels
that he has an adequate motive for being
a criminal. This applies, of course, to
the professional criminal who commits
crime against prr,perty and only inci-
dentally against persons. 6. We can-
not reduce the criminal population until
we can remove the motive for
crime. 7. The criminal when he be -
cornea a ward of the State must be
treated .vith severity, but under an in-
telligent method wholly for his reforma-
tion. 8. We cannot refdrin our crimin-
als until we reform our prisons. 9. We
cannot reform our prisons until we take
them out of politics. 10. We cannot
take our prisons out of politics until
special Civil Service rules are fully en-
forced in our prisons or so long as any
prison .office may be tilled as a reward
for political service. 10. In conclusion,
to purify our prisons, to save ourselves
from criminals, we as Christian citizens
must throw our prayerful interest into
the matter of purifyiug our politica and
saving ourselves from politicians. -W.

Freedom.
My work is done; the eventide is here;
My wages now 1 ask of thee.
Not gold aur jetvels do I crave, any Lord,
But, Master, set nay spirit free!
The shadows lengthen on my glacier path,
Heavier the chains that fret ane here;
1 ask for freedom from their crushing weight,
'Tia life, not death, 1 hold in fear!
My work is done; thohour of rest draws near;
The vesper -bells toll clear and sweet,
hinto the aged should be spared, my Lord,
The pains that torture tared feet.
According to my need, I ask of thee
That thou bestow the promised wage.
1f faithful 1 hare been in small and great,
Wilt thou not now any pangs assuage?
My work is done; take rue within the gate
Where enter only those thou wilt;
A city lighted by thy glory great,
The city not by mortals built.
Como quickly, I beseech, and freely give
The guerdou iu its full degree
Which thou has promised unto every man
Aoeo.ding as his work shall be.
let, Master, not Yny wi11, but thine, be done,
On thee 1 wait.; forgive my prayer!
Thou knowest best if here I'm needed still,
Thou knowest if I'm needed there.
The wages are not due till work is done;
Submissive to the end Cit be,
Knowing thy precious promise never fails,
That my reward still rests with thee!

Deer Fond Not the Most Nutritious.
The maxim that "the best is the cheap-
est" does not apply to food. The best
food in the sense of that which is sold at
the highest price is rarely the most
economical for people in health. The
food that is best fitted to the real wants
of the user may.' e the very kind which
supplies the most nutriment at the low-
est cost. Round steak at fifteen cents a
pound contains as much protein and en-
ergy, is just as digestible and is fully as
nntritive, as tenderloin at fifty. •Mack-
erel has as high nutritive value as sal-
mon and costs from an eighth to half as
r•uch. Oysters are a delicacy. If' one
can afford them there is no reason for
not having them, but twenty-five cents
invested in a pint would bring only
twenty-nine grams, about an ounce, of
protein and 260 calories of energy. The
same twenty-five cents spent for
flour at six . dollars a barrel, or three
cents a pound, would pay for 420 grams
of protein and 13,700 calories of energy.
%Vhen a day -laborer buys bread at 74
cents a pound, thd' actually nutritive
material costs him three tunes as much
as it does his employer who buys it in
flour at six dollars a barrel. -Prof. W.
O. Atwater, in the September Forum.
Kipling Pere.
John Lockwood Kipling, the father of
Rudyard Kipling, is now on a visit 'to
his son's new home in Brattleboro, Vt.
Mr, Kipling, sr., is a courteous and en-
gaging Englishman of the best type, in
years slightly past middle life. Those
who have met him in this city or upon
his travels -and the greatest oars has
been taken not to reveal his presence
and identy .to the newspapers -agree
that he is of singular grace of manner
and charm of conversation. A keen yet
appreciative observer, he is well pleased
with alt that America has shown him of
its best. His life has been mainly spent
in the British civil service in India, but
he is author of a large and admirable
work on India, and is modestly proud of
his own achievements and of the fame
of his gifted son.

JJvr 'wonderful A+leptit chit!.
Wherevo ,we meet the Americt►u wo-
unlit -rand we meet her everywhere, in
the ranks df the English peeerage and of
the highest European aristocracy, as well
as in more rnodeet conditions -we are
struck with that marvelous adaptability
In which, says the Popular Science
Monthly, wise meu see the sign of the. -
superiority of a race or of a species. It
is revealed notably by that good humor
with which she accepts the numerous
petty annoyances that every charge of
medium implies and which put the best
characters on trial. She submits to thein
without effort and criticises them with-
out bitterness; she is, further, prepared
for then by her education, and does
not expect to find everything easy.
Then, the necessity of manual labor does
not seenn to her like a degrading con-
dition; at most only one or two genera-
tions separate her from the time when
her grandmother kneaded the family
bread in the primitive settlements.
These stories are familiar to her, and the
lessons deducted from tlieni are not die
couraging or httmilitating. She is the
daughter of a race of emigrants who
have become,a great people through
work, energy and determination. She
has in this at her command a whole
treasury of traditions from which she
draws, not without pride. We might
say, in listening to these stories, that we
were hearing cue of triose grandee
dames of the past century, emigrants
and poor, telling with pride in their
memoirs how, to supply their wants,
they worked in Loudon or iu Germany,
utilizing their accomplishments and
their correct taste, and making trim-
mings and embroidered rubes with
their own aristocratic hands.
OCEAN TELEPHONY.
A Ntw Wire for Spreoh Transmission
Acrr.ss the Sen.
Dr. Sylvanus. P. Thomspon, the noted
English electrician, considers that tele-
phoning across the ocean is one of the
possibilities of the early future, In a
paper on this sul>jeet before the Interna -
tion Electical Congress. he described a
cable, which, if used in trans-Atlantio
work,would perform the same service
now requiring eightcables. In the present
cables the slowness with which the in-
sulation around the copper wire changes
front low to high and from high to low
potential limits the number of words
that can he sent to about 25 a minute,
as claimed by the Postal Cable Coin-
pany. Wore the cable made with two
wires. one for the outgoing current and
one for the returning current, with induc.
tion coils connecting the two so as to
produce a slight leakage from the out-
going wire, these induction. coils, placed
uniformly 10 miles apart, such re cable
world transmit signals so much more
rapidly that, in his judglnent, ocean
telephony would be possible, or, if not.
then tit least the Morse signals could
be sent so muck more rapidly that
ono cable would do what now requires
eight.
A Social Misstep.
. An amusing story was told some
years ego of a certain Madame de S., a
French woman of high social ambitions.
Eike was anxious to become acquainted
with and to be known as the friend of
persons high in rank, and site left no
stone unturned to further her interest's
in that direction. Returning from the
country to Paris one day in a railway
carriage, as the story runs, she fell into
conversation with a remarkably well -
(tressed but quiet and reserved than who
sat on the seat opposite. After a while
she chanced to mention impressively
that she had observed tttat the Countess
Lemoine was a passenger in the
next carriage, and, to her satisfac-
tion, site found that the gentle-
man to whom site had been talk-
ing was intimately acquainted with
her. Of the countess establishment
and circle of friends he told her a great
many interesting particulars. So pleas-
ed was she with the talk on this subject
-proving her acquaintance, she thought,
to be a man of decidedly high position in
Parisian society -that she ventured to
make what was even for her a bold
stroke, and, asking him for his card,
politely requested his company at her
next soiree. The train arrtved. Madame
de S. alighted on the same platform with
the countess. She looked then to see the
familiar recognition she expected be-
tween the lady of rank and her new
friend. But what was her surprise when
the countess, holding up her finger,
beckoned uuceremonionsly to him, and
said, "John, see to the baggage I" Her
distinguished friend was the countess'
man-servant.-Harper's Bazar.
Flow Henry Irving Played Lear.
Of Lear, I may candidly say that I
doubt whether a complete embodiment
is within any actor's resources. For my-
self the part has two singular associa-
tions. lt broke down my physical
strength after sixty consecutive •nights,
and when I resumed the part afters• brief
rest I was forced reluctantly to the con-
clusion that there is one character in
Shakespeahe which cannot be played six
times a week with impunity. On the
first night I had a curious experience.
As I stood at the wings before Lear makes
his entrance I had a sudden idea which
revolutionized the impersonation and
launched me into an experiment unat-
tempted at rehearsal. I tried to combine
she w eakness of senility with the tempest
of- passion, and this growing conviction
before the play had proceeded far that
this was a perfectly impossible task, is
one of my most vivid memories of that

A bath is cowling or stimulating' ac-
cording to the friction applied. An
authority on this subject gives the fol-
loe ing prescri son ora cool or summer
bath: A dip into cool water; white soap
if the skin needs cleansing; loop ch•y first
with a sponge and then with a soft towel

There are 7.000109 pores in the body;
these windows of the respiratory system
are wide open after a stimulating bath,
and if it is convenient to go from the
bath to the boll the very best results will
be obtained. A catnap of five or ten
minutes will pre. ent an attack of cold
and give the body the sensation of ac-
cumulated force. The sanitary value of
the sponge bath can hardly be exagger-
ated.. The vital statistics of the city
prove that clean people escape the 999
ills that inconvenience the unwashed.
