Hie MweraWe Senator Sagebrush By FRANCIS LYNDE CHAPTER XX TMB umuK. CONTRARY to an expectation, the election proved to be one of the .quietest ever known la tbe Sagebrush State. A few editors tbere were, like Bleakteeep of the Dally Capital, who later on main tained that it was merely another tri umph tor tbe machine, but (here Was Bo gainsaying the result The reform ticket, with or without the help of the machine, was elected by sweeping ma jorities everywhere, and Gantry, sit ting in hie office and reading the wire returns as they came in, gasped for breath and swore despairingly over each fresh bstch of messages. At Wsrtrace Hall the Hon. Detid turned to his sou. "Well, Evan, are the tangles all straightened out for you now!" he asked gently. "Just about all -*t them," laughed Blount He had spent a very fasppy evening, chiefly because Patricia had been occupying the Other half of the small divan be luife dMJMM oat to face tbe lire. "BUtl'ffi Itfll unalter ably opposed to the machine in pok ltics," be sdded. The senator laughed silently. "Call it 'organisation' instead of 'ma chine,' son, and you've got ths power that movea ths eivitind world today. You're heard me called the 'boss' from the time Gantry had his first talk with yon back yonder to IrTassachueetta. Call me a man with Meads enough te make aae s sort of leader in the old home State and you've got it about right. I don't say that I've always used the power Justly. Tbe Lord knows I'm no more Infallible tbsn oth er people. But, as I said to you yes terday, son, no matter what you've heard or wbo ssld it, I've never used the power to fatten my own pocket book.. I've bought and trafficked and bargained—l don't deny it—but only when It seemed as thoegllfeeead Jest* fled tbe aseans." "But tbe sad never Justifies evil means, dad," was the son's stead Cast rejoinder. Then he looked up quiafly from hie place beside Patricia. "Is that tbe secret of all tbe lnrltafk>ns I've bean getting r The humorous crow's feet were wrln kllng at the corners of David Mlounf i «r« "I reckon so, son," be admitted. "Toe bare been In the hands of yeur friends —and they're my friends—right from the start Mighty near everything yon have done has been scheduled for yon." It was just here that the professor excused himself and stumped off to bed. Mr*. Honoris signaled to her husband and vanished in her turn. A few minute* after she had gone the senator rose and thrsw a fresh stick on the Are. Then he cam* to stand before the two on the little divan. "Son," be said gravely, "you've got row work cut oat for ye*, and K'g a good iM Job.

Dally Bath ef tha Pupils In Capanha* gan'a Publla Ssheels. Denmark la one of tba cleanest lit* •la countrlea Imaflnabla. Id a Copen hagen public school ona may aae an ] Interesting eight. Mowing tba apot toaa stone stalrcaae to the first Bight, every morning yon may eae at 8 o'clock the children assemble and answer to their Dames and then march to a dressing room. Hera they undress, and each child neatly folds Us clotbea and puts the tidy little bundle on the floor. Then the children go Into a small square room with shelves all around, and on thase shelves are In numerable wooden tuba, such as we use In America for washing, with two Iron banda around them. Everything la in immaculate order. The teacher gives each child a tub, and lie or aha takee It Into an immense Hud well lighted wash room. Of course the girls and boys are washed separately, and they perform their ablutions by grades, the tin!eat onea coming first. Tba floor of this trash room la of cement, and la the center la a latticed wooden floor. All around the top of the walls runs a nickel shower pipe, the watei' of which Is regulated by the teacher. Coder these showers at the height where the small Angara can reach are little nickel stands with aoap and the stlffeet hog bristle brushes, which make one shiv er. Near by la also a faucet. Each child puts his or her tub under the faucet snd lets the necessary amount of water into It and proceeds to scrub, not himself or herself, but the child In front—a novel sight and a pretty one for a lover of children. Bat one could not help thinking what an Instrument of torture that Innocent brush conjd be if the small fingera that manipulated It did their duty viciously, paying off some grudge or fancied alight. When all are clean the teacher turns on the showers, and they are all thor oughly rinsed with flrst hot and then cold water. Bach child Is obliged to empty its own tub. Then the clean, my little bodies dry themselves with rough towels, standing on the wooden latticed floor. Bach tub has to be carefully put away, the children dnas themselves, and they file In for prayers, and the business of recitation begins. —Tonth's Companion. Willing to Divide.

Tbe correspondent observed that in every town that the troops Invaded they would help themselves to everything that waa not nailed, screwed or an chored down. This did not appeal to the American's ideas of the rules of war, and ha reported the misdoings of the soldiers to the commander. "That is selfish," said the Utter in dignantly.

As an example of traits and mo nopolies prevalent even in that early day it may be mentioned that in 1750 one Benjamin Crabb ob tained the excluaive right to make sperm candles in Massachusetts for fourteen years.

And He Had a Sign Out te Let the Neighbors Knew. In a little settlement on the outskirts ef Chicago two bouses stand out more boldly than the rest Theso two are the domiciles of two Italians of means, who, although being very ignorant men, vied with each other for the social leadership of the locality. One day a newcomer, in search of temporary lodgings, attracted by a conspicuous sign in tbe window of the flrst of these two houses, stepped to the door to make Inquiry. "I see you have furnished rooms here," he aald to the swarthy man wbo answered his knock. "Ya," rejoined the foreigner, point ing to the furnished room sign, "dare's da sign." "Well, If you have one thst's suitable Td like to rent It for awhile." "We no rent da rooms," was tbe be wildering declaration. "I got my fam ily in bere, and dey take up all da bouse."

SEEfNG THE FAR EAST. It Should Be Viewed Through the Bi ble and "Arabian Nights." The best books on the east, as every one knows, are tbe Bible and the "Ara bian Nights," and yet I found most travelers were saturating themselves with snipplty descriptions of monu ments and places, With tabloids of his tory, with technical paragraphs on ar chitecture and the ethnic religions, with figures about the height of this and the length of that or condensed statistics of exports and imports and the tonus go through fiie Sues canal aud dates about the Pbaraoba and tbe Mugbals. No wonder they see nothing, know nothing, enjoy nothing and come home bringing a few expletlvea, adjec tives and photographs which can be bad for a small price In either New York or London. The first thing to do In going to the east Is to turn your education out on your desk no that you can get at Ibe bottom of It, and there you will flyd tbe Bible nnd the "Arabian Nights" and the "Odyssey" nnd "Iliad" and "Virgil" and "Herodotus" and "Xeno phon," and you will realize what a fool you were not to havo devoted moro time to them when you were asked to do so. Guldo books can get you to the east, but they do not get you Inside. It is temperament, not trains, thnt counts.—Price Collier In Scrlbner's Magazine. Perfumes. Civet Is an aromatic substance of the conslstonco of honey nnd Is ob tained from a pouch on tbe civet cat, an animal from two to three feet long and about ten or twelve Inches high. The best known of animal odors Is musk, which Is obtained from the musk doer. China furnishes the best quality. Twenty-flve pods or sacks are packed In oblong boxes composed of plates of lead Inclosed In a caddy made of pasteboard. Musk Is obtain ed from Assam, Siberia, tho Altai mountains r.nd other parts of northern Asia. Atnfcergrls Is another animal odor. It Is sacreted In the Intestines of the speriuacet! whale. A very curi ous fact is that ambergris Is only ac cumulator by disease-that Is, it Is only secreted In a sick whale. It is very hard, of a light gray color and is found In quantities varying from twen ty to fifty |H>unds. It Is worth about £0 an ouneo.—Loudon Standard. Mucilsgs snd Gum. "I went Into n statlouer'a shop In I/ondon one dny," aald an American, "and said to the abop assistant: " 'Do you keep mucilage 7" " 'No, sir,' tbe youug man answered.

SHAVING IS NOT FATAL Barbers Nowadays Do Net Use Ham mers and Celd Chisels. In reply to a correspondent who says he yearna to have bis flowing beard removed and yet lucks the Spartan firmness of the enrly martyrs to face the ordeal nl,d makes a pathetic ap peal for advice the alfalfa editor of the Emporia Uazette unfeelingly re marks: "The alfalfa editor can offer uo ad vice or encouragement to such a trem bling sonl. It seems probable tlrnt he has worn Ills whiskers for many year! It Is likely that he hasn't purchased a shave for n qtinrter of a century and thereforo Is Ignorant of the Improve ments in the art lonsotjal which have been achluved In recent years. It Is no longer like going through a slaugh ter houso to au open grave to bo shav ed by an expert barber. In fuct, that operation has been so shorn of Its ter rors that many eminent citizens con sider It a pleasure to visit the barber. It is no longer necessary to strap n patient down In Ihe chair before shar ing him; neither In It necessary to ad minister anaesthetics to Ills whisker*. "The man whose only reason for wenrlug whisker* Is the fact that he fenrs the Imrber shop will gain little sympathy. If he tries lo explain that ho canuot shave himself without suf fering the agonle.'i of the all flr*l lie will gain less, fiuell oxcusos might have had smile f.irce long ago. when Barbers used hummers and cold chis els, but Helen- e litis made glnut strides In recent years, and the country Is full of palnles:! limbers, and a clean sbnvo coats no anguish or Inconvenience." MICROSCOPIC MESSAGES. How a Singls Pigeon Might Carry s Whole Libraey, For more than 2,000 years currier pigeons have been used to carry mes sages when uo other menus sufficed, aud during tbe siege of I'nrts, when 803 birds were sent out from the doom ed city, oue of tlio birds performed tba almost Incredible feat of carrying to the outside world on one trip no less thnn 40,000 messages averaging tweuty words euch. This was 800,000 words, or tlio equivalent of tlvo or six averuga novels. This marvel was accomplished by moans of microscopic photography, the piesaagcs iieing flrst printed with ordi nary typo ami thou photographed and rephotographed until tbey bad been reduced several hundred diameters. Tbo Una I photographs were taken on films or pellicles of collodion, each of which, uliout two Inches square, con tained CO.OQO words. A dozen of these films, rolled up lu a quill, wclgbod but one twenty-eighth of an ounce. The mossages could, of course, bo read with a microscope without the neces sity of rephotographlng and enlarging. Under favorablo conditions and for comparatively short distances pigeons havo carried as much as three-quar ters of an ounce. Using the photo re duction method. It would therefore bo posslblo for n slnglo bird to carry messages eqtiul in Words to no fewer than 120 ordinary volumes.—Harper's Weekly. * ' Whistler's Whits Lock.
