He wore a dark suit that fitted his form per fectly and in his dainty gloved hands he carried & small rose. His curly hair was beautifully done, fflTd a delicate odor of hair oil of the best quality floated down the aisle as he passed. The young peo ple will miss him now that he Is married. He is loved by all-for his many accomplishments, his tender tjfraee and his winning ways.

Where Women Will Rule. English bachelors ar.d benedicts are watching with interest the out come of an experiment to bo tried in Australia. It is a colony where no man will be allowed to hold a rood of land. The whole thing will be of women, by women and for womin. Mrs. Emily Crawford, pres dent of the Householders' League, of England, is one of the leading .sulrils in the morement, and an other is a woman doctor. Miss Het ty Sawyer. Mrs. Crawford, by the way, was one of the judges of wom en's work at the Chicago World's Fair. The women are going to estab lish a resort after the plan of the German "Bad*." only no gambling, will be allowed. They count on making this a paying-' thing, and a "Bad" owned, run and inhabited by women ought to be attractive to _bachelors with gout and fat pocket books. -? "It's merely a question of thd_ parliamentary vote," Mrs. C'raw ford said.

The question naturally arises as one reads 0/ .the ma-nv jyaJthm. |ods by which men have tried of late j years to cross from Dover to Calais.. It was only a day or two after Bler lot's successful flight across the chan nel that a_iaan. juuncd WeaUako_a& nouneed hiB ln*Qp**"n of rrciilng on a plank, 2 feet wide, is feet long and 2 Inches thicfc, fitted with a mast and sail and two empty-oll-drums to give It buoyancy.

TTff varHtnmitely sist on having them. $1.00 up to $5.00 picked up In the North Sea and lanf ed at Rotterdam/ Some two or three years ago four old Etonians attempted to row from Dover to Calais in a four-oar sculling boat, but before they got half way swamped and the crew nearly drown ed. That it is not impossible, how ever, to cross the channel in a small boat was proved ?ome time ago by a young Frenchman named Felix Chau chois, who, alone and unaided, crossed from Dover to Calais in a ca noe in 27 hours, and seemed littte the worse for his adventurous voyage. Mention of the Westlake and Wake rell home-made crafts reminds one of the Juorney made last year by Cap tain G. Johnson, a veteran member of the Harlem River Rowing Club, U. S. A.j who, in a frail raffing shelLa little under 21 feet In length. Ingeniously made by himself from newspapers' from all parts of the world, rowed, from St.' Augustine, in Florida, to New York, a distance of 1,200 miles. The entire Jourifey was for the most part on salt water, several hundred all, about 3,"000 sheets of newspaper were used in building the boat, being welded together and made water proof by sheilac. Mr: Jack Londop, the famous nov elist, accomplished one of the most remarkable voyages on record when ho toured the world in a tiny jrS'wl named the Sriark. which was only 45 feet long. Some remarkable voyages,, however, have been made across the Atlantic. Two' years ago a dismasted yawl named Catherine, with Captain Small, a mate, and a tailless cat on board, sailed into New York harbor. The tiny vessel had left Liverpool five months earlier and had succeeded In crossing the ocean. This voyage reminds one of that made-toy* Alfred Johnson, who Bailed from America to Liverpool in* an open boat only 21 feet long. When off the Irish coast Johnson's miniature liner capsized In a heavy sea, buPhe man^ aged to right the boat. He completed his journey in 4 7 days, covering a dis tance of more than 3,000 miles. Some time afterward ?Christian \r- i?
