It was the. (list prize money my wife IIlCi Booby fil’rizcfi hurl over won, So naturally rlicre 'ivis a. good dv-al of discussion .iS to how it was to be spent. She had won it as a consolation prize at tournament, ‘lll'l it was paid to her in two new bright five shilling pieces. "Ted." she said, when dl‘Uliping Off to sleep in my armchair after dinner, "I think a feather boa would be best. don't you ‘3" "Best for which, dear I" I asked. "Best way of spending the money. of- course. Do you like gray or a sort of mauvy pink I" “Mam‘y pink, dear, I always like mauvy pink." And for a moment the silence of the smoking-room was only disturbed by the click-click of my wife’s knitting needles. My wife has a great fancy for knitting my golf stockings; she declares that home-knit ones are much more economical than those bought in shops. 1 never wear the ones she knits, but that does not seem to affect the principle of economy in her mind. I was going over in my thoughts the excellent approach shots I had made at the "home" hole, when her knitting needles were suspended for a. moment at arm's length in my direction. and she caught my eye. "Of course. dear. a new sunshade would last longer. Now. which do you advise, a sunshade or a feather boa l" '?A sunshade. darling; I always was dead on sunshades." My wife looked at me with eyes full of proud happiness. ‘ "Tod. dear. I am glad I won the prize; it will save you buying me a new sunshade or a feather boa to wear at May’s wedding. I don't know which yet. Really, your silver sarâ€" dine dish isn‘t half so useful, although ‘lt was valued in the prize list at seven guineas. Neither of us eat sardines. you I had laid aside the sardine dish in my mind as my wife's birthday presâ€" ent. so this was not to be encouraged. "It was the first prize for the Billsâ€" worth May meeting, dear." ‘ "I know, darling, but when you think of it, a feather boa of the new mauvy pink, if it is only a‘booby consolation,‘ is much more useful. What can you do with a silver sardine box if you don't eat sardines ‘9 Whereas, if you have a. feather boaâ€"â€"" “You can make even the choir boys jealous on Sunday," I interrupted. My wife fell to knitting again. I always admire the brilliance of the checks with which she illustrates the tops of u booby golf ,_ I was just i {peace of mind by heaving a deep sigh.

"0. led. dear, I \vis‘h I could win an-, other prim." “Isn‘t ll i’i'licr euwnsl‘i‘e, dear .7" Who do you mean f" she asked” . with astonished eyes. “You want to buy dear," I said. , “0, Ted, I only bought part of the} rluckie chiffon sunshade you admiredl so much on Sunday. you didn't want to invest it for me. did you 2" "No. darling. mrtainly not ; you have invested it much more cleverly." ‘ "You know you like the sunshade. ’l'ed l" "I thought you bought the Shades, de:ir."' She laid down her knitting. and was looking coldly at me. "No. dear. Ididn't: surely Ican change my mind about my own money. May said candle shades were such a prosaic thing to buy with a "booby prize,‘ it would be nicer to get something you could enjoy as well." “Yes. pet. I always enjoy chiffons." "Ted." my wife exclaimed, with burn- ing eyes. "surely you always enjoy Sceâ€" ing your own wife. look pretty 2’" Tears were near to dropping on my wife’s knitting needles, and rusty knitting needles made the wool stick, my wife says. so I comforted her by telling her I always enjoyed looking at pretty so lllllt'll with it. the fifth part of my enjoyment nicely. She smiled and looked relieved. “Now. you see. why I want to win another prize, don't you, dear 2" “Golf is an expensive game, darling. even if you do win a booby prize." 0 O C C C C P.

True, she cannot sharpen a pencil. and outside of commercial circles, she cannot tie a package to make it look ianything save a crooked cross section of chaos; but, land of miracle!Sce what she can do with a pin! I believe there are some women who can pin a glass knob to a door. She cannot walk so many miles arounda Lilliaid table with nothing to eat; and nothing (to speak of) to drink, but she can walk the floor all night with a fretful baby, without going asleep the first half hour. She can ride five hundred miles without going into the smoking car to rest (and get away from the children) She can go to town and doawearisome day's shopping and have a good time with three or four friends without drinking a keg of beer. She can en- joy an evening Visit wilhoui smoking half a dozen cigars. She can endure the toituring distraction of a house l l She will not. my stockings ; the shelf of the wardrobe ‘ on which she displays them looks like a border of mixed primulas in full bloom, but one trait 1 like in my wife is that she seems to know by instinct the things that irritate her husband. and she, does her best to avoid incur- ring my displeasure. Now, one of the things I dislike most is talking in bed at nights, but just as I was dropping off and was doing a marvelous cleek shot, I had got out of a bunker that? she you had cost my partner four shots, exclaimed, suddenly: “'l'ed. are asleep ‘l" I grunted "No." "'I‘he worst of it is. darling. that feather boas dirty so soon; now, a sil- ver puffâ€"box would always last, and I could leave it to Gladys asamemento of her mother's"â€"my wife paused. "Of her mother's first booby consoâ€" lation prize," I said. Before I got to sleep I had promised to take my wife next morning to town, and help her choose a mauvy pink feather boa. It was raining next morning, so we had to take a cab. The cab cost me five shillings. My wife certainly chose an exquisite boa, and even a husband couldn't help noticing how becoming it was to her. In the cab on the way home I also noticed that the ticket was still on it; it was marked four and a half guineas. My wife said that it was awfully cheap at that. Of course I could not expect ten shillings to pay for a whole feather boa, but, as she remarked, it would have cost me four and a half guineas instead of four if she. hadn't won the booby prize. It was so becoming to her that I let the mat-i ,and about tor drop, but the rest ofour drive was continued in silence. The sardine box arrived to-night. and I sent it off as a piize to be awarded by me at a cottage flower show for the best exâ€" ample of cottage grown honesty. “How proud the cottagors will be." said my wife, "to have areal silver Bal‘dinu box l" "Yes," I replied, like sardines '2" v'oiidei‘ if they \‘Ve had some friends in to (linnc‘: next evening. and they pleased my wife much by admiring some candle shades she. had put on the candlesticks i had: won at the autumn iiieeling last yezii’.{ asnwcred as pleased as a child. and} answered proudly: "Yes.

A veritable tragedy of modern sciâ€" cncx- the outbreak of the bubonic plague in Vienna. It has already killA ed 'l doctor and a laboratory .‘lS‘iiSiaDl, and threatens the lives of many other persons. In Professor Nothnagel’s laboratory, where this outbreak originated, experâ€" imcnts have been conducted with the plague germs since the outbreak in the. East, nearly two years ago, of the most dreadful of all epidemic diseases. It receives great attention from the medical profession of Vienna, because, on account of that city's proximity to the East, the plague is more feared there than elsewhere in Europe. Vicnna .hzls been a centre of plague investigation. It is now a centre of infection. The germs have. undoubted- ly bccn carried broadcast through the city from Nothnagel‘s laboratory There is danger of a general epidemic. Barisch, the original victim of the Vienna laboratory, owed his death, aoâ€" oording to the. latnsl report, to amt. He was an assistant in the laboratory The doctors had been making experiâ€" ments with antiâ€"toxin on the rat. In the first place, the germs were inject- ed into the animal. Tth it was put back into its cage, in order that the disease might develop and the antiâ€" toxin be tested. Burisch was ordered to report on the, condition of the. ani- .mal. Familiarity with such expcriincnls <hfl(l made him careless. Instead of looking at the rat from a safe distance he took it. out. He held it too loosely. Quick as lighlning it twisted and bit. deep inlo his thumb. ’l'ho dumb victim of science took an awful revenge. Its sharp tecth carried the germs right into the man‘s circulation. Barisi-li dropped the rat, which dis- appeared in a hole. He sucked his thumb and mid and apparently thought no more about it. For three day:‘ Bariin went about the city as usual. visiting friends, drinking becr and enjoying the largâ€" est possible amount of social interâ€" course. liven after he began to feel ill he said nothing about what had happened. S’I‘RICKEN DOWN. At the end of three days he was stricken down with the plague in its worst form. He had swelling in all the glands of his body, blackness of the skin and terrible vomiting. In eight hours he died. Dr. Mueller treated him. In three days he develoncd the plague and died. Two women nuns-s. Albino Pecha and Johanna Hochcgger. were dreadfully ill, but recovered Six other (141805 then developed. They were treated in an isolated building. One physician, Dr. Pooch, who volun- leci'ed tor the work. stayed inside the building. He wrote his prescriptions and held them against the window pane inside. They were read by other physicians outside. All contract beâ€" tween occupants of the isolated build- ing and outsiders was avoided. Rats have long been dreaded as a means of spreading plague infection. They spread it in Iloiig Kong and Bouiâ€" bay, two cities where the disease has raged recently. \‘l'licrever the pestilence has appear- ed vast quantities of dead rats have been about the houses. This was par- ticulzirly true during the lust epidemic in Bombay. After the dead rats had 'becn seen the. human death rate beâ€" came high. It is conjectured that af- ter one. [lliln had been killed by the plague. the rats attacked the dead body. The rate carried the. infection to other houses. The germs clung to their hair and whiskers. The animals contam- in'iled human feud, llien sickened and died. or rats and vermin. ’l'lius' Ilie disease was spread far and wide. It is also probable that soil-d dies-sing»; were carelnssly thrown .'l\\';ly mid gnawed by the rats. Sl‘ltl‘IAl) HY thlt‘l'li.\'l‘lt)N.

There has been no opportunity to test the :inIiâ€"toxin on human beings in Europe and Am m‘ica and therefore the experiments have ban cnnfincd to animals, as in the fatal case at Vienna already des- cibed. The method of obtaining the antiv toxin is as follows: A minute quantity, of (load plague germs is injected into a rabbit. This makes the animal fevâ€" erish, but it recovers. The injection is gradually increased until at last the rabbit becomes immune against thelivc plague germs. Then the serum of the. animal‘s blood is collected and this serves as :in injection with which the disease may be cured. The process is. of course, very elaborate, and delicate, and occupies about six weeks. .__â€"â€".â€"â€"â€" (‘OSTLY PERSIAN JEW’ELS.

She is now 32 years of age, and has distinguishwl herself in the ful- fillment of her varied duties. The department of public. instruction in most western states carries with it many duties. Colorado, is no excep- tion, and Miss Patton is a member of the state board, the state board of‘ ex- aminers, and the state board of edu- cation. After graduating from the slate agricultural college, she was call- ed to the chair of English and 50010- logy in that institution, where she taught for twelve years. This expen- ence has aided her to make her admin- islratio'n of great benefit to the school interests of the state. The es- tablishment of school libraries. the ex- tension of kindergarten work, and the general introduction of manual train- ing have received ' special attention. School decorations are also one of the chief reforms. Miss Patton is aslender woman with a sweet, reuncd face, and a charming personality. _ An interesting anecdote is told of Sir Joshua Reynolds. The famous por- trait painter used great quantities of snuff. and he would take it so freely when he was painting that it frequent- ly inconvenienced those sitters who were not addicted to it. During the time he was engaged in painting the large picture of the Marlborough fam- ily at Blenheim lhc duchess ordered a servant to bring a broom and to 5W98p up Sir Joshua's snuff from the carpet; but the painter, who always withstood the fantastic head tossings of some of his sisters by never suffer- ing any interruption to take place dur- ing his applicitirm to his art, ordered the. mun, when he entered the room to obey the duchesa‘ commands. to let the. snuff remain till he had finished his picture, observing that the. dust raised by the broom would do much more injury to his picture than the snuff could possibly do to the carpet. The. servant was, for the moment, quite bewildered, but regaining his wits ap- pealed to his mistress, and on receiv- ing no sign from her he retired sil- ently from the room. leaving his task unaccomplislicd. The education of 'lurkish girls coni- pi'ises only the more rudiments of read- ing and writing and a few verses of the Koran. They do not go to school until they are 7, and leave when they are about it). After they are of that age, unless they are of the poorest class, the girls are shut up with the women of the house. and never go out unless closely veiled. At It agirl is in the marriage market, and a Turk- ish marriage is purely a busmess trans- action, the girl in most instances havâ€" ing never scen her future husband, and. all negotiations are carried on by the parents. Some of the more progresâ€" sive Turks wish to improve the stand- ing of women in their country, but it is difficult to break down the cus- toms of centuries. The house of Lady Naylor-Leylind, formerly .Viiss Jessie Chamberlain of Cleveland, in London, is a treasure- house of art. Her husband's father, an English millionaire, noted for his love and patronage of art, brought to- gether the nucleus of this valuable col- lection forty years ago. Ho also de- signed the house in which it is dis- played. This fine house, built on a roy- al scale, and filled with specimens of art from all clinics and countries, is said to possess that indefin-ible air of home and domesticity. Following the traditions of her husband‘s fainily,Lady Nnylorâ€"Li-yland is a great lover of art and delights in the beautiful objects by which she is surrounded.
