A PLEA FOR THE HOME WOMAN. SO few women realize the possi tllltles for exercising the most thoughtful energies in learning to le a home-maker. The opportunities for developing endowments, scientific, tateUectual or executive to their fullest 1 are as present here as anywhere The girl who never dreams of having a borne of her own and some one at the bead of It whom she can de light to honor and love Is generally lacking In her feminine make-up. Moth era who. after tbeir daughters arrive 4U a suitable age to Instruct them upon the subject of love, marriage and the tittles of home-keeping, neglect Ala aert of training must some time awak OB to the fact of what they have miss ed. And yet one would not cast a shad w over the bright dreams of youth and force a young creature out of her girlhood by emphasizing to her the aomber realities of life before she takes sjp tbe duties that belong to a future experience. The girl must not be cheat- ad aat of one stage of ber development; tf aba is, she will carry through her life a sense of having been defrauded Of something that was rightly hers. If a girl la kept true and truthful and para, she has the foundation qualities Qpoa which to build tbe happiness of a borne. But she needs direction In those tubits that have a direct beating upon Ma peace and comfort The most thor ough education, tbe most brilliant gifts, fee moat fascinating personality these ate not too mucb to bring to a home, and tbe investment of tbe wealth of Bind and heart will Insure rich returns to tbe sacred spot where love and serv ice ahould go hand In hand.

At the end of a heavy dinner we eat our cooked fruits, and when we irant their digestive action even more developed we take them after dinner 1b their natural uncooked state as des nert - In tbe past apes Instinct has taught men to do this; to-day science tells them that fruit should be eaten as an aid to digestion of foods much tnoee than It is now. Digestion de pends upon tbe action of pepsin In the stomach. Fats are digested by acids and the bile from the liver. The acids and peptones In fruit peculiarly assist the acids of tbe stomach. Only lately ren royalty has been taking lemon Juice In tea Instead of sugar, and lem on Juice has been prescribed largely by physicians to help weak digestion, sim ply because these acids exist very abundantly in the lemon.Popular Sci ence Monthly.

It Is often the case that the man who wins fame Ik apt to develop an abnor niai sensitiveness, as It He stood on a higher pedestal than the smaller mor tals, even in his own house. Then. from them all be expects the uplifted, adoring eye and voice. As a rule, he does not receive this adulation at home, It ought to be considered a misfortune that the place for literary work Is usu ally at home. Here a man cannot have the quiet, undisturbed sanctum, de voted only to the Interests of his work, that the business man has in his office. Interruptions are apt to be constant. There is another reason for this do mestic unhappiness. The writer. If he is a literary man also, must grow In breadth of knowledge and Ideas, while the wife, encircled by the small duties of home, has little chance for growth, and Is fortunate if she does not become even more narrow. Shakspeare out grew his wife. Byron and Bulwer out grew their wives, and, like ordinary egotists, resented the fact that they did not hourly receive the praise they craved. Carlyle pranced ahead of his equally disappointed mate, but made bitter speeches because of her lack of speed. Quaint t-creen. In a great many bouses where the occupants hare artistic tastes charm ing screens are made from Inexpensivs materials. For Instance, In the accom panying cut Is shown a square fireplace screen of which a child's hoop forms tbe centerpiece. This Is fastened to tbe frame by strong fancy cord carried through brass screw eyes, and over tbe whole Is fastened a gauzy material through which the cord can show. The centerpiece Is. of course, covered Just to suit one's fancy. One sugges tion for those who csn paint well In oils Is to cover It on each side with a piece of cloth and paint some pretty scene or sprays of flowers npon it Another pret ty plan Is to work a fantastic eastern design in bright colors upon a dark ground, which will give tbe screen n rich appearance. This screen will be useful to hide an unsightly fireplace. New York Herald. Domestic Happineaa. Good housekeeping has far more to do with domestic happiness than young people dream of. These times need women whose most beautiful work will be done Inside their own doors. With out good housekeeping the romance will soon go out of marriage. Of course, the man who prizes woman chiefly because she "looketh well to the ways of her household-' docs not deserve to have a good wife. He should merely employ a housekeeper' and pay her good wages. P.tit there are social, moral and spiritual uses pro ceeding from the wise regulation of the household which Iwstow a dignity on what would be trifling. No matter what a girl's accomplishments may be, her education is Incomplete if she has no knowledge of bnkenlogy, bollology, roastology, stitehology and mendology. Even If a girl should never be required to do the work herself, she ought to know whether It Is done In the proper manner. coiori arc again at the top of style.

With uniformly good roads the cost of moving this freight would be only $4O0,ooo.mio, saving rti'm40isi,. 000 to the public annually. This Is equivalent to the yearly interest on 20.000,000,0i0 of 3 per cent, govern ment bonds. One-half of this almost inconceivably vast sum would rebuild every mile of road in the United States at an average cost of, say, $'1. 1'', per utile, and the other half would furnish a yearly In come of 1200 per mile for their repair and maintenance. At present the peo ple spend the vast sum of $20,000,000 each year tn tbe repairing of their worthless roads. This sum would build 4,000 miles of thoroughly good macadam road, sufficiently wide for rural purposes. Experiments made In the Missouri agricultural experiment station show that In nearly all road conditions broad-tired wagons pull easier than those with narrow tires. On a mac adam road a load of 2,518 pounds can be hauled on broad tiros with tbe same draught as a load of 2,000 pounds on narrow ones. On gravel road, ex cept when wet and sloppy on top, the draught of the L road-tired wagon Is much less than that of the narrow tired wagon; a load of 2,42 pounds can tie haul.-d on broad tires with the draught required for 2.000 pounds on narrow tires. The trials on dirt roads give vary ing results. When It Is dry, hard and free from dust 2.5.TO pounds can be hauled on broad tires with tbe draught required for 2.000 pounds on narrow tires. When the surface Is covered with two or three Inches of dry, loose' dirt the results are unfavorable to the broad tire. In general the better the road the greater the advantage of the,, broad tire. St Louis Post-Dispatch. Michigan Rnada in Pprlna;. This spring the following presenta tion of the state of the roads leading to a Michigan village apticared In the Detroit Free Press: The highways about this place are In a very bad con dition, the clay mud being, In some places, from two and one-half to three feet In depth. This has Injured travel to such an extent that in many In stances considerable loss has been sus tained. Fanners who are furnishing Detroit markets have teen obliged to hold their produce until the roads be come passable. To-day a Oerman farmer, who was returning from the city, got s'uck In the mud and lind to finish his Journey without the wagon. The butchers supplying commission houses with pork are also among the losers. M lde Tire. The effect of wide tires on roads has been shown clearly In a street In Springfield, Masf., over which heavy quarry wagon are d riven. The roajl was f ;u.e;iy badly cut up, but a num ber of years ago it was given a heavy surface coat of gravel, with the under standing that wide tires should be put on the wagons carrying the quarry stone. This was done, the tires being i four to five Inches wide, and since tLat time the mreet has lcen in good con dition, although little has Iwen done to it New York Times. Road Maintenance. The only way by Mhich a macadam roadway can Im kept Ann and compact and preserved through summer heat is to moisten it regularly. If macadam is worth paying for, It is worth caring for. But this Is done onl.H In spots, w here private parties bear the expense, and, instead of keeping the roads al ways good and firm, It is customary to wait until tho. sun has disrupted the surface and then to spread on a quan tity of earth, stones and sod to "pro tecf It Exchange.

He bsd then been living In London nearly forty years, yet he bud the untamed aspect of one just arriv ed from Ecclefecbam. He wore "an old experienced coat" such as Thoreau attributes to his Scotch fisherman, one having tbat unreasonable high collar of other days.

THE CZAR'S EAR. Mnaaian Peaaanta Keaaarkable Crad nlity. In the western districts of tbe Cher son province of Kussla there recently occurred a strike of peasants, who reso lutely declined to do any more work for the local landowner. Tbe police Inves tigated tbe matter, and. according to our 8t. Petersburg correspondent, give the following extraordinary reasons for tbe outbreak: A picture of the person t Czar was re cently sent to all communal councils In Russia, Including, of course, those in Cherson. As the picture only presented a side view of the Czar, only one ear was visible. This led tbe peasants to believe that tbe Czar really possessed only one ear, and the loss of ths other they thus account for: When Alexander III. died (say these peasants), his widow and old advisers began to confer together, afterward In viting Nicholas II. to Join them. As soon as Czar Nicholas entered the room he declared that all land In Russia must be equally dlvded among tbe peasants. One of bis councillors replied: "As sure as you cannot see your own ear you won't divide the land." The Czar there upon cut off one ear, and remarked. "As surely as I now see my ear I will divide the land." The peasnnts In Cherson were so con vlnced of the truth of this legend that they believed a strike against the land owners would be followed by the inter vention of the C'r.ar and the division of the land among themselves. London MalL The Child at tbe Play. Tbe 6-year-old son or a newspaper man occasionally goes to tbe matinee with his mother, but the trouble with him Is that he becomes greatly excited, and Is apt to express his feelings In words, to the amusement of the audi ence, but somewhat to tbe annoyance of tbe actors. At a recent play one of the actors was In the act of choking another whom he suspected of being guiltv of a crime. As the actor went toward the uptosed villain with his hands outstretched, the boy became greatly excited, and as the men clinch ed the Ixiy stood up and called out: "Say. let blm alone, he didn't do It." There was a laugh from the audience and s surprised look from the stage. At another time. In a play where a husband suspected bis wife, and she was pleading to be taken home and given an opportunity to prove her In nocence, the boy could not stand the woman's pleas and the husband's cold reception of her entreaties, and he called out: "Please, mister, take ber back." The boy has not been taken to the theater recently. Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph. History Home Time Hence. Teacher of history Willie, what was the main thing which hastened the Spanish-American war?

The Money-Making Game. Tire first of all English games Is mak ing money. Thnt Is an all-alworbing game; and we knock each other down oftencr In playing at that than at foot ball, or any other rougher sport; and It Is absolutely without purpose; uo one who engages henrtily In that game ever knows why. Ask a great money-maker what he wants to do with his money he never knows. He doesn't make It to do anything with it He gets it only that he may get It "What will you make of what you have got?" you ask. "Well, I'll get more," be says. .Inst as st cricket, you get more runs. There's to use in the runs, but to get more of them than other people Is the game. And there's no use In the money, but to have more of It than other people Is the game.

Tbs warning did not prevent tbe Irish gen tleman from losing his handkerchief, though fully on his guard, five minutes after leaving bis hotel "Why did yoa not keep tt In your bat?" was ths an swer given to his complaint. In his "Recollections" be tells this story: In a hotel frequented by the English, a burly, bot-tempered man used to de nounce the pickpockets, and declare that they were no match for him, as hs knew their ways. One day he cams late to dinner, exclaiming, "They will let me alone for the future!" and thea be told bis story.
