The Point of View. This is a true story. A certain belle was present at a recent Chopin recital. During the "March Funehre," her eyes glistened and her whole attitude of rapt attention was as if the music had entranced her very soul. Her whole face was expressive of admiration and Intense interest. When the pianist had finished, the icort of Miss "Belle" turned to her and paid: "How beau tiful!" To which she replied: "Yes, Indeed; doesn't it fit her exquisitely In the back? How much do you suppose tt cost in Pails?" A Woman's Letter. Women, it is generally admitted, write better letters than men. M. Marcel l'revost ba.s discovered the reason for this superioi ity. "The obvious meaning is never the one we should read into a woman's letter. There is always a veiled meaning. Woman makes use of a letter just as she enploys a glance or a smile, in a way that is carefully thought out, and with an eye to effect. And, after all, her head? Do"s a woman's parasol keep off the sun? Why, then, should a woman's letter serve to convey her real thoughts to the person ad dressed, Just like the letters of some honest grocer, who writes, '1 send you five pounds of coffee,' because he really does send you five pounds of coffee."

There are no fairer set of men o earth than the doctors, and when they find they have been in error they are usually apt to make honest and mauly admission of the fact. A c.ise in point is that of a practi tioner, one of the good old school, who lives in Texas. His plain, unvarnished talo needs no dressing up: "I hail always had an intense preju dice, which I can now see was unwar rantable and unreasonable, against all muchly advertised foods. Hence. I never read a line of the many 'ads' of Grape-Nuts, nor tested the food till last winter. "While In Corpus Christ! for my health, and visiting my youngest son, who has four of the ruddiest, healthi est little boys I ever saw, I ate my first dish of Crape-Nuts food for sup per with my little grandsons. "I became exceedingly fond of It and have eaten a package of it every week since, and find It a delicious, re freshing and strengthening food, leav ing no HI effects whatever, causing no eructations (with which' I was for merly much troubled), no sense of fullness, nausea, nor distress of stom ach In any way. "There Is no other food that agrees with me so well, or sits as lightly or pleasantly upon my stomach as this does.

MANAGER KNEW HIS BUSINESS Probably Reasoned That Applicant In Her Position Would Work Hard to Keep the Job That He Had to Offer. "Why d'you leave your last posi tion?" the besg asked of the girl who said she worked for Spragne & Sprague. "I wasn't exactly forcod to leave," she answered, ingeniously; "the man ager's niece came along and took my place, and as this forced me back to the shipping department, where there was no chance for promotlion or the same salary, I left of my own free will, for I knew I could do better else where." "Let me see. Mr. Jay is manager at Sprague's. isn't he? I didn't know he had a niece, at least none with business training," the boss yawned, indifferently. "It may have been his cousin or aunt or sister, anyway she was relat ed, I was tol4," replied the applicant not eo Indifferently, for the pink spot In her cheek was getting pinker. "Ho you live with your parents?" asked the gentle ogre again. "Yes," replied the applicant, with perceptible hesitation. "What do you do mostly after busi ness hours?" was the next question. "Of course, I read some," stammer ed the hopeful one, getting less hope ful. "Sometimes I do a little sewing for my cons for my aunt, I mean." As the questions became more per sonal she became more uneasy and less controlled of speech, and her opin ion of the manager's impertinence un nerved her. Hut the gentle ogre quizzed even further. "What is your father's trade or bus iness?" he asked, with another com fortable yawn. "Is he engaged down town ?" The candidate was so new at the art of bluffing and simulation that her tongue fluttered miserably between yes and no and her expression reveal ed the true situation. There was no father in town, no mother, not even a cousin or an aunt. The manager was shrewd and ob servant, and he could readily pick out the girl who tries to get a position on the strength and courage of her bluffs. The girl left the office despondent ly. It was so evident to her that the boss thought her whole story a fiction SCIENCE NOTES.

The Japanese are not only noted for I their quickness on the battlu field. ! They also are rapid artists with the 1 brush. It Is told of the Japanese artist Fuknl Kotei, that three years ago, on a hot summer day in Tokio, he painted one picture for each of his 1.224 guests. It took him from f a. m. to 7::!u p. m. to complete his task. This would allow less than forty three seconds to a picturr If he work ed steadily, with no interruption. The famous picture "Ku ii noyama." by the same artist, he drew fr the I Hike of Conuaught In one evening, when the duke was spending a night with him. Miners Fear W'hlta damp Is the gas most feared by the miners, for its properties ren der It difficult to detect, inasmuch as It Is tasteless, odorless, and colorless, and when mixed in tho proportion of about one part gas to nlno parts air, fa called "fire-damp," and becomes exploslv, to a degree hard to reallz unless one baa seen Its effects. Black damp, unlike whlto damp, is heavier than air; a non-explosive gnw which may be detected by Its peculiar odor. Again, unlike the other, Its effect Is to suffocate and extinguish fire. This gas Is so heavy and moves wlih such a sluggish flow, that, ocaulonally, when nilners have been trapped In a mine following an explosion and bavo de tected the black damp creeping In up on thorn by its smell, they havo been able to stop Its advance by erecting dams or barricades along the floor, building them higher as the volume of gas Increases, and keeping the air within their little lnolosure compara tively clean by rude improvised fans. the World's .

Sterlllxatlon of Milk. A Russian chemist claims to have solved the problem successfully of sterilizing milk without altering Its ferments and antitoxins. An ordinary boiling process or heating even to 62 degrees C. will make milk Inert, while the Russian's method of bring ing it so rapidly to a temperature of 80 degrees O. that the ferments are not altered Is Just as effective so far as the thoroughness of the sterl llz.atlon is concerned. It Is done in this manner: The milk is forced Into the heated vessel In the form of a spray which breaks It up into glob ules. It Is at once condensed and drawn off Into a receiver to cool. An air spray has no effect upon the char acter of the milk, but a steam Bpray of course dilutes it about 10 or IS per cent. Aluminum Coins Objectionable. The French government has been considering for some time the adop tion of aluminum money, but it has finally rejected the proposition. Aft er making a study of the weight of money, It was concluded that the coin of lesser value were so cumbersome that they were objectionable In 'he pockets on account of their weight. The aluminum coins which were struck for consideration were so elu sive that they slipped out of the pock ets and through the fingers on all oc casions, and for this reason the coin erg decided that there would be as much opposition to their use as there Is now to the weighty pieces. A com promise is to be effected, however, by using a bronze-aluminum alloy, which, If adopted, w ill cut the weight of the present coins In half. Can Sit at Their Work.

TAKE TIME MANY OTHER THINGS IN THE WORLD BESIDES WORK. Over-Enthusiasm Probably as Bad as a Lack of Real Interest In One's Business. It may seem somewhat paradoxical to say that a girl may take too much Interest In her work, but It Is never theless true. Of course, there Is the class of girl (and she might be called almost typical she is so numerous) who is merely poised, so to speak, on her position temporarily, waiting un till she shall flutter away to a hus band and a home, but there is also the girl who becomes so wrapped up in her work that only on the rarest occasion can she take a peep beyond the narrow horizon that bounds It. She work early and late until she is practically a nervous wreck, and is Im posed upon quite as a matter of course. Of course, It Is a truism that f-he who wishes to succeed must put her whole heart Into her work. This Is self evident. Hut there Is a sane and safe level between neglecting one':' work and livfng for that and nothing else. The good worker should also he a gooil player, and above all she should learn to drop her work when she leaves the office or sihoolr'-'im or workshop, and learn to take a .

One of the greatest problems that are brought before tho mercantile world for consideration as a result of the rapid decrease In the timber supply is the discovery of a fitting substitute for wood pulp in the manu facture of paper. A short time ago we published a report of the French system of making paper pulp from vines, says a writer In the Chicago Tribune. The latest suggestion, how ever, is the utilization of sugar cane, and as far as it has been tested it has appeared In the light of a genuine ao lutlon. The planters In Trinidad have found that they can add enormously to their yearly profits by raising their cane and treating it with the specific object of turning it Into paper, with the manufacture of sugar as a mere aide issue. The process which they have now adopted makes it possible to use all the fiber of the cane for paper and at the same time to get more sugar from it than by any of the old meth ods. The United States consul at Santiago, moreover, reports that the manufacture of paper from the cane Is exciting considerable Interest and some investment in all the sugar coun try and an American company has in stalled special machinery m Prestoa on Tripe bay. The machinery will separate the pulp from the fiber. The water Is ellmlated and the pulp and fiber dried with all the elements of sugar still in them. The pulp and fiber are handled separately and the Bugar extracted so that the fiber is not broken. High grade paper can bo made from the fiber and from the pulp residue a coarser product Is turned out which has a commercial value, whllo the quality of the sugar is in nowise af fected. To Prevent Dry Rot. Dry rot Is readily prevented, and there Is really no excuse for allowing It to attack anything that can be reached with a brush. Chloride of zinc Is the best preventive, and the prep aration of it is as follows: Dissolve 100 parts of crystallized white vitriol In 250 parts of water, and to this add fifty parts of common salt. Heat and set to cool. Sulphate of sodium will form and separate Itself from the chloride of zinc by crystallization. This can be colored, if desired, with Van Dyke brown and applied to any surface with a brush. TO PLAY - avoiding as if 6he were a pestilence the girl who Is constantly quoting the "boss" or bragging of the quantity or quality of the work she does. The amusing things that happen at the ofllce are legitimate subjects for con versation, and will be welcomed when recounted at home or at the boarding house, but the purely buslnuss details contain as a rule not tho least glim mering of interest for the outsider. This kind of girl becomes rather a nuisance to the "boss" himself In time, for she is always ready to take offense at anything which she con siders a slight. Many girls undergo real suffering by having certain work which they were In tho habit of doing given to some one else, when It should have been regarded as a relief and a kindness done to them. The glrl3 who can think of nothing hut clothes, and who will suddenly bleak Into any conversation with some irrelevant remark as to tucks or gath ers or box plaits, and demand that you shall give your opinion regard ing the same, Is pretty bad, worse, perhaps, than the girl who thinks too much of her work, but the latter is nevertheless bad enough.

By C. W. JENNINGS. f2.,sH AVE you ever stood In the T basement of a big building L belonging to a great news- fsJl J paper and watched the 'T T tremendous whining press s es pulling paper off an end less roll so fast that your eye could scarcely follow It, and delivering at the other end of the machine count less printed and folded newspapers so rapidly that tho Indicators on some of the modern electric presses record as many as 300,000 eight-page papers an hour? Or have you watched one of the tremendous multi-lithographic presses that pull out a roll similarly and deliver at the other end colored pictures that pick up six different col ors of ink In passing and come out so fast that no human being could count them ? And has it ever occurred to you then that here wbl tn occupation for your boy, that he coi.ld start in, without any more education than the common est of loiiuuon schools could glvo blin, when ho was only sixteen, and learn all about those innumerable whirling rollers and cogwheels and other wheels, and Interrelated moving tilings, and finally be at the head of the multitude of men that stand around aid touch levers now and then and put In new rolls of paper to take the place of the exhausted ones, and, in short, know everything about It all, and still while he was a young man? Well, your boy can do this very thing and, furthermore, be can rise to a superintendency of the biggest printing establishment In the land, and, and all based on his humble be ginning when he was sixteen. And when he reaches the top which Is within the compass of your ambi tious, energetic son he will occupy a place quite as high in development and with a salary that will enable him to own an automobile if lie wishes' to, sooner than If he took a job In the first place that let him wear a white shirt and creased trousers. (Let me say emphatically that the best po sitions in the land are generally won by men who started In wearing over alls.) All he needs Is the desire, for a job is always awaiting an ambitious boy who Is willing to work. The best opportunities are probably found In the large printing houses that get out lithographic and Job work, books, and and perhaps print magazines; for the work la more di versified and of larger character, and there are openings to be tilled by men who have made good. Your boy applies to the foreman, and. If there is an opening, lie will start In as an apprentice at about $4 a week. There will be four ifr five years of work ahead of him before he will reach what be will consider a real position; but the drudgery will pass In about a year. At first lie will keep tilings in order around the press, help wasli the ink off the rollers when one Job Is finished and prepare them lor the next; but all this time he will be learning the details of presswork, and j the mysterious machinery will be- come familiar to him. i Pretty soon, say a year or two aft-' er he began, if he is bright and ambi tious, he will be set to feeding a Gor- ' don press (one of the small Job press, ' es that print cards, letterheads, en- ! velopes, etc.), and while doing this his pay will be gradually increased to $'j a week. His next advancement will he feeding u pony (sinulll cylin der press, when he will be paid as high as $12, then a larger cylinder press, receiving $14 weekly; and finally he will be competent to feed trie largest snoots oi paper properly Into one of the biggest cylinders, at of $Hi a week. At this time, whici. is after about four years of apprenticeship, he will he admitted to the labor union as a full-Hedged feeder. The day's work will last for eight hours. After con tinuing t'ei'ding for several months, he will attract the attention eif the fore man by his application and Industry, and will be put on as apprentice pressman at $1S u week, to equip him self to operate all kinds of (presses, un til alter a ye-ai's training, ho will get a union e aid aiinouneiiig that ho is a qualified pri-ssman and entitled to the full scale of wages of $'M a week. Then he will be given direct charge ol a couple of cylinder presses, witli the feeders under him. All this ttlme he will bo reading ami Btudylng everything he- can find that relates to a pressman's duties and con sulting with more experienced men; in short, making himself capable to fill any position in tho department. So It will be a matter of course that In a year or so more, a vacancy eiccurrlng, be will be made assistant foreman, at $:i0 weekly. Of course, this Is In di rect line to the fori'iiianshlp, the direct head of the entire press department of the establishment, who has some times 100 men and boys under blin, a position that, i-onditlous belni; fa vorable, by will reach by the time he is thirty or soon afterward. As fore man he- might have charge of as many as 15 cylinder presses and 20 job presses, and In the beginning will be paid $IU a week. This pay will be ultimately Increased up to as much as I'M), which is about the pay of the best foreman. Your son will have learned long , since that further advancement must Include other departments and will he picking up a general knowledge of tho composing room, all phases of print ing, binding, etc., so as to make him self capable to take tho next higher position, that of assistant superintend ent on tho entire ni"chanical de partment. His salary this time will be somewhere around $1,000 a ear. Of course this leads directly to tho position of superintendent, the execu tive and controlling boss of all me i rhanical work of the Institution. Su perintendents are paid anywhere from $5,000 a year up, according to the mag nltude of the business of the company they work for, and In all likelihood your son will soon be made a member of the firm, or will be called by a largo 1 establishment to take the general management. Some superintendents aro paid aa much as $10,000 a year. The line of progress In a newspaper office Is somewhat different. Your boy starts In at sixteen as apprentice, which he must follow for four or five years. The pay at first will be $4 to $6 weekly, and ho will work up from the drudgery part, which Is the same as in the other case, then In a year or so become braketnan, the man that starts and stops presses on order of tho regular pressman. About this time he will Join the union, and then will work up througn various steps, In general similar to those followed In regular printing houses, until he be comes assistant and finally regular pressman at $30 a week. Largo news paper presses are generally attended by two pressmen and four or five as sistants. Tho next promotion Is to bo assistant foreman of tho press room. who is paid $55 a week; and finally to foreman at anywhere from $05 to $100, according to the magnitude of the business. It is likely that after becoming fore man your son will be offered an ad vanced position In a general printing establishment, In which case his prog ress will be much as narrated before. This is ono of the most lucrative definite lines of work connected with the publishing business, and offers fine opportunities for getting on, as has been seen. In these days a man who can take charge of tho machin ery used In printing a large dictionary or of lino lithographic work. In which the excellence of the output depends so directly upon the presBwork, has accomplished much. The figures used In this article are based on those paid in New York city.

Have we another English sparrow pest on our hands? people are every where' beginning to Inquire. This Is a question which can hardly yet be answered with certainty by a ellrect yes or no. The federal government Is making careful scientific Investiga tions and has not yet reported Its decision. It Is safe, however, to say this, that the starling Is HaMj to be come a great pest anil nuisance In this country through pressure of num bers, though It has useful traits, nn'it Is In some ways a beautiful and Inter esting bird, fnr superior to tho Eng lish sparrow. The sum and substance of the mat ter, as far as we have gone at pres ent, seems to hi' that If the starling could remain In only modernte num bers in a 'locality, Its presence would not be particularly objectionable, but that If, after spreading out all over the country, it locally Increases to great numbers mid Immense flocks, as it gives every promise of doing, it will become a very serious menace. both to our useful ifatlve birds and to agriculture.
