WOMEN IN OFFICIAL LIFE.
tleaalta of Election in Bohemia aad
Norn rjr Swedlah Policewomen.
The progress of yomen In official
life in Europe Is slow, but It cannot be
doubted that progress Is being made.
Within the last few weeks women ap
peared for the first time as candidates
for election to the Bohemian Diet. It
had been demonstrated as a logical
proposition that If they fulfilled the
other requirements their sex was no
bar to their election. . j
So far their candidacy stands merely
aa a demonstration. Two women re
ceived votes of some Importance. One,
Marie Jumore, who ran in the district
of Hopenmouth, had 144 votes, while
the man who won had 502. In Prague
the social democrats made a woman,
Miss Macheva, their candidate. She
polled about 20 per cent of the total
vote.
Tho woman suffragists . of Norway
were disappointed at the outcome of
the local election in CbrlBtlana. In all
the other parts of the country, they
elected Important delegations to the
commercial councils. In the capital
only five women were chosen in a total
of eighty-four city councillors. There
Is an active agitation going on all over
the country to bring the women and
men voters of Christiana to a differ
ent frame of mind.
Of advances made where the suffrage
was not involved, the appointment of
throe women policemen in Stockholm
Is an Instance. Tbe authorities have '
determined to experiment with them.
They aro to have salaries of 1,600
kronen, or about $300 a year, to begin
with.
England also has Just named her I
first woman school physician. She Is
Miss Sophy B. Jackson, M. D., and she
li:i8 been "appointed In the borough of
Craydon.
Where Total Ecllpaea aura Ilwt,
It is a fact well known to astrono
mers that the average number of total
and partial eclipses in any one year Is
four; that the maximum Is seven and
the minimum two. Where only two
occur they are always both of the sun.'
There are a great many more eclipses
of tho sun In tho course of a year or
a hundred years than there are of the
moon. This fact, notwithstanding,
however, London, the metropolis of the
world, seems to be a place where such
obstructions to the sun's light seldom
occur.

Illinois has a divorce law which forbids persons di
vorced from contracting another alliance within one year,
or from returning to the State within that time to live In
matrimony with a persou married outside of the State.
But the law has uo practical effect.
This state of affairs will continue so long as there Is
no uniform divorce law In all the States. So far as di
vorce laws are concerned, the Stntes are so many various
nations, each having Jurisdiction within Its own territory,
but nowhere else.
The Slates should appoint commissions to bold a meet
ing, agree upon a uniform divorce law and recommend It
to legislatures. When every State has the same divorce
law as every other our divorce scandals will cease. Steps
to that end should be taken without loss of time, for, as
Cardinal Logue and other observers have truly Bald, di
vorce is the one great menace to tho nation's safety.

by deliberately risking his life.
The interest to the onlookers in these
performances arises from the fact that life
for a moment bangs by a hair. Agility, muscularity,
beauty of, movement have become secondary, whether the
feat la "looping the loop," riding the bicycle round and
round the sloping sides of a huge bnsket with no bottom
to it, or taking chances In a cuge with some wild "beast.
It ia one and the same appeal to something within us
that craves unhealthy excitement. t
It la true that the "gladiator" In these days does gen
erally escape with his life, but the quality of the amuse
ment demanded proves us akin to
tors whose one Idea of a good l.ollday was a batch of
Christians and plenty of wild beasts.
Nothing grows so quickly by what it feeds on as this
demand for excitement, and It Is well understood by tho
caterers to the public taste that the "shocker" of to-day
Is the platitude of to-morrow. For a season we could
hardly believe in "looping the loop," but the dish rap
Idly grew Insipid, and tabasco had to be added, so the
loop was looped In a motor car, then In a motor car with
a piece of the track removed, and so on.

If you've got anything on your mind
you go and talk It Into the phonograph
and send me the record. I'll put It on

p'ny to entertain.. But I'd advise you,
not to waste any good breath,' I says.
Ton needn't be afraid but what I've
got the right of it If I haven't it don't
cut no ice. You can go out with her all
you're a mind to.'

says.

else and I guess she thinks you're bet

much sense.'"
"I guess that held him for a while,"
said the girl with the genuine coral

body gave me a line of talk like that
I'd let her see how my coat hung In the

"He said t-lte had a heap more sense
than to get mad about notbln' tit a'l.
That's all right,' I says. 'I ain't got
no objections. Didn't I say you could
go with her all you pleased? I don't
care how much you go with her. If
she's got so much sense maybe It would
be a good thing for you. I ain't got
anything against her. She'd be all
right If she wiped the powder off her
nose after she put It on. I know I
ain't got any sense, but what do you
care? Don't you never let a little thing
like that worry you. Maybe you think
I wouldn't have known about It If you
hadn't told me. If you like red hair
you keep right on going with her. I
guess I'll be able to keep up. You
needn't think you've got any call to
feel bad. There's lots of boys like red
hair; only hers Is more what I'd call
sandy.' "
"'Go right on with your knockin','
he says. 'As soon as you get through
I've got suthln to tell you. To begin
with,' he says, 'I ain't struck on red
hair any more than you are, or sandy
hair, either. In the sccont place, I
wasn't goln' out with her. She was
goln' tbe same way I was and that's all
there was to It. We wasn't with each
other more than five minutes. She'll
tell you tbe same thing If you ask her.'
" 'I guess she'd tell me 'most any
thing,' I says. 'What would I want to
ask her for? I don't care whether you
was with her five minutes or all the

PAINS IN MISSING LEG.
One-Learg-ed Man Say Ue Una
Rhenntatlam,
His right leg had been recently am
putated, leaving only a stump, aud one
of his friends, with rather Ill-judged
levity, remarked: "Well, anyway, you
won't be bothered now with corns on
your right foot."
"No," replied the maimed one, "but
do yon know, I am bothered a great
deal with what feels like rheumatism
In my right knee and the toes of my
right foot"
He spoke so seriously that everybody
looked at him In surprise.
"Ob, you need not look at me that
way," continued the one-legged man,
"tbe right leg and all that belongs to
it Is gone; nevertheless, all tbe nerves
and cords, veins and arteries which
once com ected with It still exist as far
down as .he end of the stump and have
not yet got out of the habit of work
ing. They seem not to have discovered
that the leg Is gone, and go through
their old motions and emotions Just as
If the limb was still attaehed to me.
Sometimes I feel cramps or twitches In
tbe toes of my right foot, or rheumatic
like drawings In my right knee, so
plainly that I have to look down to
convince myself that tho leg Is really
off. At times I can feel the wbolo leg
throb and ache.
"It Is now three months since my leg
was amputated and tbe stump Is as
suming the shape It will finally have,
the swelling Is going down and the
scum, where the wound was sewed up.
Is pressing outward. This affects the
sensatory nerves, causing what is
known as pain. Tho nerves, unused to
the new conditions, telegraph tho sen
sations to the bra In in the only terms
to which they have been accustomed.
A nerve down there In the stump gives
the signal to the brain. That particu
lar signal ued to mean 'cramps la tbe
toes,' and the brain so translates It
Then there comes another signal which
used to mean 'rheumatism In the knee,'
and as rheumatism In the knee the
brain gives out the news.
"Ultimately, the doctor says, the
nerves will become accustomed to tho
new conditions and Invent a new cipher
code for communication with the brain,
or else tbe brain will learn to translate
the old signals differently. But mean
time, and for some time yet I shall
feel all tbe aches and pains In tbe leg
I have not got that I could possibly
feel In the one they have left me.
There, by George, I fult a pain Just

CONDUCT Off A JUDGE.
CDOE JESSE HOLDOM, Chief Justice of
the Appellate Court, Illinois, declared be
fore the State Bar Association that a Judge,
"like a bishop, should be the husband of
only one wife," be wary of affinities, avoid
the life of the roisterer, not associate with
persons of known evil life, and not seek
political preferment whllo still a wearer of the ermine.
Because all this Is elementary Information, the Judicial
attributes mentioned being generally accepted, several
Chicago Judges have hastened to deny that the shoe fitted i
them, and there is general Indignation that the distin
guished Jurist Indulged In such broad strictures without
being more sieclfle. They feel that If Holdoni hadn't
meant to reflect on somebody near at home, ho would
not have spoken as he did, although no one will deny
that be has laid down a rule of conduct at which no up
right, patriotic Judge can cavil. But ajl the same he has
stirred up a veritable tempest of protests, which makes
one all the more suspect the timeliness of his utterances.

CAT AND QUAIL CHUMS.
Strangle Frledaklp Between UvonnU
ed lllrd and Uotncstlo Animal.
It Is very unusual for a quail to be
come domestic ted, and In the in
stance here related, where absolutely
no efforts have been made to train the
bird, the Incident is still moro un
usual.
A year ago Mr. Schippung, of Beth
lehem, Pa., who Is one of the best
sportsmen In that vicinity, whllo out
huutlng, winged a quail. Having shot
tho bird In season he was entitled to
It; but his heart went out to the
quail with a broken wing, and Instead
of killing It, he took It home and set
the fracture, Buys tho Bethlehem Dis
patch.
. In a few days It was hopping around
as lively as could be, free to go where
It wanted to. It hnd lost Its "call of
the wild," however, and refused to
leave the abode of its benefactor.
Even though It was not held captive,
Mr. Schippung felt uncertain us to
the advisability of allowing It to stay
around bis yard. So one day he took
Fritz, as tho quail was named, up the
hillside to a large wheat field. In
among the shocks of grain Fritz was
placed and Mr. Schlppang started
home.
He bed returned perhaps half way
when he chanced to look around and
there, following Hko a trained dog,
was the quail. Its broken wing had
never healed properly and Its gift of
flying was lost to It forever.
After this Incident Mr. Schlppang
felt that he was Justified In letting the
quail enjoy Its liberty around his
bouse, as well as elsewhere. One of
the bird's favorite stunts Is to perch
upon the shoulder of Mr. Schlppang'a
daughter, while she goea about her
housework, often falling asleep with
Its bead nestling against her cheek
Tlis only sound the average person has
betrd from the quail Is the well-known
"bob white"; but this bird at times
glvca all the sounds of danger, warn
lug, etc., that only he who communes
with nature has the privilege of hear
lng.
The daintiest morsel of food to
Fritz Is the common house fly. When
ever one of tbe (Schlppang family claps
Its hands the quail will appear, for It
has learned to know that the clapping
Is a signal that It Is to get a fly to eat
The quail and the family cat have
become Inseparable friends. This
friendship has existed from tbe day
Frits came to tho Schlppang home,
No one thing pleases the cat more than
to have tbe quail cuddle up under Its
paws In the bright sunshine, and both
take a snooze together.
For the sake of amusement a mir
ror will sometimes be placed before
the bird. Overcome with jealousy
that another of Its Ilk has dared In
vade Its domain, Frits will puff up
and fly headlong at the mirror and not
cease fighting until tbe looking glass
la taken away.
