"I wish that every woman in th? world were so situated that she did not think It wafc necessary for her to marry-4?-^he did not want to. ^ow?_ thai "ft ~jif opDsittorr^rtiaT 1 am^pre pared to defend against nil comers.. I am the last one to take a posittou agalnst that old doctrine of the com mon law that there ought to he. noth ing to interfere* v^(h matrimony. Bui I would have the matter so arranged that the women, when they come to decide arid make thvir choice, should have a*full and free choice, and that can only be reached when they are put i3i a situation where that which ? they nut ;'i I if.' wliicli T hp v select because It is better than some ? that they expect, but a life that t<hey look forward to with unmixed happl . r.ftiiV; . - ! There Is a deeper meaning to the ? foregotng extract from n rr,Pprh v , while on hi* present Jaunt over the country, than appears on the sffrfaeo. Al though the Presiden**?tU"dn't say so. ( lie doubtless knew in his heart that many women marry, not from choke hut from necessity, and hv 'Aould. if he could, remove such conditions by making women iiidepndeut cf matri mony. ~"lt is doubtful if the average man. who is blessed^vith a congenial help-' meet, fully realizes what a woman, gives up when she mariies him. Most of the men arn inclined to labor un der the delusion that they are confer ring a great favor on a wemar. when they marry her: indeed, a large ma jority continue to sail through life under that Impression, years after happy associations with the -farmer* or their-Jives_ snouic t.u'.V ? .oil vin^rf l:.x.,u.llial,i{ i 1. ?.-,?? was on his side, for there is no man and mother. * Few of the masculine persuasion fully appreciate what a girl gives up when she leaves father and mother. and fears herself a-.v..; frf:;: .ill liTe's associations to go into a strange l?"d. wrhaiw. m-l Ji.rl. 2nd endeavor to adapt herself to new and untried conditions. And for . __ whai?

As Che riders are Ignorant of aoch an IntwoUon as the side saddle, tfctfr riding habits are built to fit the llnea of an ordinary leather saddle. In effect those garments are simply a baggy pair of troussrs, ending at the ankle In front but hanging In many folds almost to the ground at the back. Seen a slight distance away, -however, the costume resembles the trailing gown of a mediaeval noble woman when riding, and lta pictures queness Is enhanced by the Havtian itylp,;of headdress. I Loser Should Pi y FJnder 10 Pe^ Cent. "If .you lost' a watch worth >100 wbpt reward would you glvo the find I er for Its return?" "Oh. $10 or $20." "Tea per 'cent., eh? Well, that is about right," Bald Lecocq, the deteo ?tfye. "It Is more, though, than the average person would give. "Here In America, in lost and found cases, there Is no recognized percent age of reward, but In England there Is such a percentage ? namely, half a sgrown to a pound? that is to say. about 10 per cent. Jen per cent, is what the finder must be paid In Eng land. provided he takes his And to a police station or to Scotland Yard. He always does so. as otherwise the owner Is apt to give him less than the logal 10 per cent. _ "1 lost in a London cab a kit bag worth 320. The kit bag was returned by the cabby to Scotland Yard and I left there for hlr: gladly a reward of $2. If the bag h:'d leen rvortn $2,000 j I'd ' have been charier of handing I out $200. but that Is what I'd have had to do" before the Scotland Yard folks would have giveti^g^ my property.^ "When you loseMiny thing be pre? : pared -ttr-frve- nt >?rst~K? jwr cent, to 1 the finder.

The corner was formed in bending sharply the conducting wire. A photographis ' place, enclosed In a hard rubber hold ' er was placed under the wire in auch j a way that the discharge would do- < scend toward K", .then turn nr a right | \ angle, and pSss horizontally above It. j it was found that when a negative _ discharge passed down the wire to the | angle the electrical particles kept straight on their way instead of turn I lng penetra teethe rubber, cover and ^ affectcd the enclosed plate. Dut when I the discharge was positive no 6uch ef fect was prodded. The current ap I parentlv turned the right-angled cor- | j ner without, so to speak.

In the Spring of last year Thomas and Francis Ilauch, two miners, who keep a garden and grow strawberries and vege&blen, "experimented In grafting a sciou of a four-year-old-apple tree In ?**, ?
