A visitor la oue of the government
offices where women are employed in
one of our cities was conducted by the
superintendent, an old man with large
experience. The last room Inspected
was filled with women at work, says
the Youth's Companion.
The visitor remarked: "This Is a
higher class of women than that em
ployed at the same work in some oth
er kind of business. These women
have been educated and have refined
faces and voices. I should judge they
are not used to manual labor of any
kind."
"They are not," was the reply. "In
almost every case they are the widows
or daughters of men whose Income
died with them, but who. w
hile living.
gave to their families luxuries beyond
their means.
"That young girl by the window was
In fashionable society in New York
two years ago. Her father, with a
salary of $5,000, lived beyond his
means. The woman In mourning is
a widow of a physician whose income
averaged $6,000. He probably spent
$8,000.
"That pale girl is the daughter of a
master builder, who lived comfortably
among his old friends until he was
seized with political ambition. He
moved Into a fine house, bad his car
riage, servants and gave balls. He
died and bis daughter earns $12 a
week, on which she supports her
mother. There Is hardly a woman
here who is not the victim of the vul
gar ambition which makes a family
ape its wealthier neighbors In Its out
lay." "That Is an ambition not peculiar to
us Americans," said the visitor.
"It Is more common among us be
cause In other countries social post
tion depends upon birth, while here It
is usually fixed by money. How many
families In every class do you know
who are pretending to a larger pecuni
ary wealth than they have?"
SAVAGES.
The American Indian Make Dainty Bit
ver Trinket of Mexican Dollar.
An exhibit which usually surprises
the visitor at the National Museum in
Washington is the group showing the
American Indian working In silver at a
forge of his own contriving.
Contrary to popular supposition, the
Indian Is a very clever workman, In
metals. Some of the amulets, armlets
and buttons found In the possession of
the far Western Indians are of excel
lent finish and workmanship. The In
dian loves ornaments and delights to
deck the blankets and buckskin robe of
his young son with silver trinkets.
His bullion Is the Mexican dollar,
and he uses a rude forge fitted with
bellows made of buffalo skin. They
generally have two pairs of bellows,
which, being worked alternately, fur
nish a steady draught.
Some of the designs wrought upon
these rude silver buttons prove that
the Indian is far from an unimagina
tive being. It Is clear that he has more
conception of the beauties of nature
than most of his critics would admit
The use of the blow-pipe is not un
familiar to the Indians. They make
us df it to braize the eyelets of buttons,
The lamp used for this purpose Is very
crude, consisting of a rag daubed with
tallow, placed In an open dish of metal
or stone. As the Indians have been
gathered into reservations they have
lost the use of even these rude me
chanical arts, and the practice la now
confined to a few In the mountains of
Northwestern Mexico. Here an occas
ional rude forge may still be found,
and Its output of forged silver trinkets
still passes from hand to hand. Dishes
are sometimes made of silver by ham
mering out a dollar very thin and then
pressing it against a design already
cut in stone.
Forgotten How to flay.
Gentle mother, whose life is full of
work and care, have you forgotten how
to play? If so, let your own children
teach you over again. Join in their frol
ics, share their sporls, learn to play
their games. It may seem loss of time
to you, but it means infinite gain to
the children for the mother to be also
the playfellow.
This cannot always be done, but it
can be done often enough to Increase
manyfold the child's delight In sport.
There is no opportunity like it for In
culcatlng the doctrine of fair play and
of unselfish sharing of toys. From be
ing pleased and proud to have mother
play with them, they can easily he led
to the desire to make hsr have a good
time, and from that to the considera
tion and practice of giving other peo
ple pleasure. Remember the play time
Is his best time for the average child,
They learn quite early enough that
they can have good times without the
mother. Do everything to postpone
that evil day, and, leaving the welfare
of the child out of the question, the
play will do the mother good. It takes
away the worry and makes at least
one bright and sunny halt hour in a
day that may be full of cares. We
have no space to enumerate the advan
tages, but they are many. Try them
for yourselves, dear mothers, and help
each other by reporting the results of
the trying upon your heart, and also
upon the temper and spirit of your
child.
A Suitable Reward.
"You have done well," said the sul
tan, "and I have been thinking how
I can best reward your services."
Tewfik Pasha made a profound sa
laam.
"I can stand a little more prosper
ity," he replied cheerfully.
"Just so," said the sultan. "How
would you like to be made superintend
nt of the Atrocity department?"
OBSTINACY.

Notwithstanding the fabulous wealth
of the Klondike region It cannot boast
of a road paved with gola. as can Call
fornla. The Hear Btat has plenty of
extravagant citizens, but It remained
for a widow and widower of Suoni
county to commit the crowning act of
folly, which furnished that locality
with a public thoroughfare of the New
Jerusalem style. It was a case of sheer
obstinacy. John Johnson, a widower
of liloomfleld. wlshil to Improve the
road from his home to the village of
Valleyford. For this purpose he re
ceived permission from Widow Martha
Jones to take rock from a hillside on
her farm. While carting the nxk he
noticed what seemed to be specks of
gold saining iu mr buimikiu. m-mmi:

laeo t0 De assayed and learned that the
I stone he was building his road with
as gold-bearing quartz worm irom s
to $10 a ton. Then he sought the
Idow and, pointing out the fortune
hich seemed to be hidden In the hill.
proposed to share the cost and profit
of development. Hut the widow was
coy financially as well as sentimentally.
She did not believe in Johnson or tls
gold-mine yarn, and in the language
of the Bowery "trim 'em down hard."
Her permission had been given to put
the rock on the road, and that was
II she cared to have done with It.
Johnson wasfurlous, but he saw his
opportunity. The widow had given (he
rock for the road on the road it
should go even it were worth $100 a
ton. So all summer long Johnson's
wagons worked until four miles of
road were built, but the widow didn't
weaken.
Cause of Grav Hair.
Gray hairs are honorable, no doubt.
but their advent is not usually hailed
with any exuberant joy by men, and
certainly not by women, and It Is
curious to note in going through Ufa
at what varying ages people commence
to show the passage of years by the
change in the color of the hair. And
yet the whitening of the hair does not
always portend the approach of age, for
the hair of some individuals laboring
under certain passions has been known
to become gray in a single night. Many
reasons have been suggested for gray
hair; some assert that the cause is a
contraction of the skin about the roots
of it, and from this cause suppose that
Polar animals become white, the cold
operating as the contracting power;
but this theory is untenable, or we
might all turn gray if we happened to
be exposed to particularly hard frosts
As a matter of fact, there are fewer
gray people in Russia than In sunny
Italy or Arabia. The more likely rea
son is that the vital power is lessened
In the extreme .ramifications of those
almost Imperceptible vessels destined
to supply the hair with coloring fluid
The vessels which secrete the fluid
cease to act, or else the absorbent ves
sels take it away faster than it is
furnished. This certainly appears to
be feasible, for grief, debility, fright,
fever and age all have the effect of les
sening the power of the extreme ves
sels. Against this theory it may be
urged that if the body be again lnvlg
orated, the vessels ought, according to
our reasoning, to again secrete the col
oring fluid, but to this it may be replied
that the vessels which secrete this fluid
are so very minute that upon their
ceasing their functions they become ob
literated and nothing can ever restore
them.
Stopping and Starting: Electric Cars,
It takes Just as much electric power
to start a car as it would animal power,
and it requires less current to keep
the car moving than to start it, so that
a great number of starts and stops
means a large consumption of energy,
In the American Electrician there ap
pears an article in which the actual
figures for these two cases are given
It is shown that the cost of one stop
on each trip of a car during a year on
a fifteen-car line may amount to $70
or to J467 for a 100-car road; so that
if these figures are multiplied by two
stops at each crossing on a road oper
ating long lines the large cost is evl
dent. Careful handling of the con
troller will save over $1,000 a year on
a 15-car road , and $7,000 per year on
a 100-car road. The difference be-
tween a careful motorman who has
been well instructed and a careless one
may amount to from 3 to 8 per cent
of the total energy consumed. It is
perfectly safe, according to this au
thority, to say that 10 per cent of the
energy can be saved by more . care
ful handling of the controller, while
on most roads at least 15 per cent
could be saved without doubt. The
maxim of every motorman should be
"Use the brake as little as possible
and drift as much as possible." The
employment of skilled raotormen ca
pable of understanding the mechanism
they handle would result in a saving to
the trolley companies, even though a
higher salary were paid the men, and
at the same time add much comfort to
the passengers.
All Sort of Rlche.
Was there ever such a season as this
for picking up riches by land and wat
er? Now it is a discovery of pearls,
pearls by the bushel, that is distracting
newspaper men. This tale from Ar
kansas beats the Dutch. Arkansas is
the last place in the world where one
would expect to tumble over real
pearls as thick as pebbles on the beach
bul wonders will never ceasa. If the
Klondike gold fields are so difficult of
access, then why not travel to western
Arkansas and go to pearl hunting? The
extent of these pearl deposits in the
lakeo and bayous reads like a fairy
story. Nuggets of gold sound deli
cicus, but how about "rrpes of pearls?'

CURIOSITIES OF LIGHTNING.
If tiia Bee tho tlah Never He Alarmed
fnr lanKr I tione.
There have been numerous deaths
from lightning near New York in the
last ye?r, says the New York World.
In some cases the electric current
played peculiar pranks, and thus dem
onstrated that a bolt of lightning Is
something beyond the knowledge of the
scientist. It is impossible to forsi e the
conditions that might prevail during
an electrical disturbance, anu wiuu
bolt of lightning Is of great intensity
there la no telling what It may do.
When Benjamin Franklin deter
mined the character of lightning and
invented the lightning rod he made a
great discovery, but since then other
nvestlgators have added much to the
Btore of knowledge on the subject.
The matter of lightning rods has re
ceived a great deal of attention from
scientists in recent years, and a number
of popular fallacies have been exploded.
Various mystifying characteristics or
lightning have been explained and oth
er freaks of the electric current are
more or less understood. Some years
ago there was an international confer
ence on the question of lightning rods
n England, and the report of that
gathering, based on the observation
aud experience of the members, is the
most valuable contribution to the liter
ature of the subject ever made.
While it is generally conceded that
lightning rods offer protection to build
ings, it is admitted that under certain
conditions the most carefully erected
rods will prove unavailing. There are
many Instances in which buildings
have been struck by lightning though
provided with lightning rods. In most
of the eases the rods were not properly
constructed and connected, though in
other cases the rods were as nearly
perfect as human Ingenuity can make
them. The lightning that missed them
and struck the building can be likened
to an avalanche that is so powerful as
to sweep away all obstacles and go on
its way regardless of man and bis con
structions. From a report Issued by direction of
the secrtary of agriculture it seems
that the average death rate from light
ning In the United States is a trifle
more than 200. Practically all of the
fatalities occur in the months of April,
May, June, July, August and Septem
ber. The maximum death rate occurs
in June and July. There has been a
few people killed in November and De
cember, but the weather bureau has no
record of a death from lightning in
January or February.
The financial loss from fires caused
by lightning for eight years averaged
a trifle more than $1,500,000 a year.
Lightning has a preference for some
soils. Thus when the soil is of a chalky
formation lightning will strike but one-
seventh as often as when the soil is
sand. Clay soil will be struck twenty-
times to once in the chalky formation.
The bolts have preference for cer
tain trees. Oak trees are struck more
frequently than any other tree, and the
birch Is rarely a victim. It does not
seem possible that oak trees are struck
more than fifty times to one beech
tree, but the weather bureau reports
show such to be the case. Pines are
struck about one-third as often as oaks.
The danger from lightning is much
less in the city than in the country,
the ratio being about one to five. In a
record of eighteen deaths due from
lightning one was killed inside a build
ing, eleven were outside and six were
under trees.
As a rule lightning that strikes a
tree does no further damage. In only
three cases out of 100 did the bolt jump
from one tree to another.
Hellnm In a Mine.
Helium, it will be recollected, is a
chemical element which was known to
exist in the sun and some of the stars
long before it had been discovered on
the earth. When found on our globe,
two years ago, it was discovered in a
rare mineral of Norway named cleveite.
Since then cleveite has been in demand
in chemical laboratories, and its rarity
has made it costly. Recently a mine
was opened near Ryfylke, Norway, con
taining an abundance of cleveite, to
gether with several other rare miner
als. The cleveite from this mine, ex
amined in London, haa been found rich
In helium, and it sells for about $5 a
pound.
Cnrloalttes In etna.
There have been found In a prehis
toric mound in Humphreys county,
Tennessee, two images which are ex
citing much interest. The images are
In a sitting position, and one, repre
senting a male, is twenty-eight inches
high; the other, representing a femala,
is twenty-four inches high. They are
carved of stone of a kind different
from any in the neighborhood. The lo
cality, seven miles from Waverly, on
the banks of Duck river, abounds i
ancient mounds.

The re"s6h why stars are visible at
noon when looked for from a shaft or
well is that the eye is better able to
regulate and decrease the admission
of the rays of light through tho iris
to the pupil and from thence to the
crystalline lens. The use of the lens
is to collect the retina Saussure
states that stars have been seen with
the nuked eye in broad daylight on
the declivity of Mount Blanc at an
elevation of 7o7 feet. The ob
server must be placed entirely in the
shade, and have a thick and massive
hade above his head, to prevent the
strong light of the day from dispers
ing the faint image of the stars.
