IN THE PUBLIC EYE. w J Uk MRS. MARTHA SAGE, Widow of the financier whose will leaves her probably the richest woman in the, world. RICHEST OF WIDOWS. Mrs. Russell Sage, although she has devoted many years of her life to charity and philanthropy, is by no means one of those who give without taking into account every practical question concerned. Her years of as sociation with her husband and the insight which she has obtained into business matters make her pre-eminently fitted to undertake the great task imposed upon her by the will of her husband. She believed that some day his wealh would be the means of doing untold good and she has pre pared herself to disburse it to pro duce the best results. Mr. Sage taught her to see every thing from its practical side, rather than merely from its sentimental as pect, and in her charities, which have been numerous, she has been actuat ed by that same spirit. She was of much assistance to Miss Helen Gould in the organization and management of her beneficiaries designed to honor the name of her father, the late .Jay Gould, Mrs. Sage has well developed pow ers of administration, ; and that the care of the great fortune will be con ducted with ability is the opinion of those who know her best. Mrs. Sage is the second wife of Russell Sage. Her home was Syra cuse, N. Y., where she was born, in 1828. Her early education was re-ceivegU-itSthe schools of her native city, and she then attended the Troy Female Seminary, since aided by her husband, and now called the Emma Willard School. She wjfs graduated from the institution in 1847, and has always been one of the most enthu siastic of the alumnae. She met Mr. Sage in Troy, and was a friend of his first wife. Their mar riage took place in 1869. Soon after that he moved to New York to try his fortune in Wall Street. Mrs. Sage sympathized with her husband in his endeavors to build up whaf ie considered a source of power and often influenced him to - aid . worthv. objects. As age crept upon MnyJie was .unremitting in her care of nim. . He often said, "The loving care of a tender wife such as mine is the greatest gift which a man can have." She believed in him and felt that f i j i j mi oiten ne was misunaerstooa. ine epitaph for his monument, "I have done the best that 1 could by the light of the day," was her suggestion. Ail iweill jcais ouc uoiuicu ucj 1110 to the care of him, and in the last two or three years she perceptibly aged under the strain. Dean of Labor Leaders. I 'Samuel GoinpeTs London," says the Queen, "for merly .splenetic and morose, has totally changed its character. Every thing is looked at lightly, airily, and we make fun even of such tragedies as our climate and the County Council." t SPRING TURNS GRIDDLE CAKE. The housewife seldom experiences any trouble in turning her griddle or batter cakes, but to make the opera tion easier a Pennsylvania man has invented the novel cake turner shown in the illustration. Turning the han dle to turn the cakes is not neces sary with the device. All that is re quired is to press a spring after the cake has been put on the lifter and the turning is done automatically. The cake turner is made in two parts the handle section amd the lifter section. The latter comprises the cake turner and the rod connecting it to the handle. At the end of the rod is a beveled pinion which lifts into a sector pivoted to the side of the handle, the sector being made into one piece with a finger piece. Attached to the sector is a coiled springy which keeps the turner in its normal position. After placing a batter cake on the turner the finger piece is i pressed, the latter moving the sector, which in turn engages with the bevel gear on the end of the rod. The sector being of a pre determined size, a half-revolution is imparted to the turner. Releasing the finger piece returns the turner to its normal position. ELECTRICAL HEATER. The use of electricity for cooking purposes was established long ago but to utilize it also in portable heaters fori temporary use, as warm ing beds in place of the ordinary hot- water bag, is the idea of a San Fran cisco man. It has been the aim of the inventor also to simplify the con struction without detracting from its efficiency. ' The receptacle is a hol low casing, covered with asbestos, the casing being made of perforated sheet metal. Within the casing is the electrical apparatus for conduct ing the heat, the source of supply being regulated by a key. The cur rent can readily be supplied by at taching to a near-by incandescent lamp socket, the wire carrying the current being made of sufficient length for , ordinary purposes. It is obvious that the heat can pass out freely from the open end of the cas ing and also through the perforations in the side. NONSENSE.

Reflections of a Bachelor. After all, a woman's effort to beau tify herself is but a vain attempt. Men who brag are those who for merly squandered. Some spinsters advance step by step until they finally become step mothers. v Many are trying to get their hearts into paradise by putting their hands into other people 's pockets. North Dakota Solves the Adultera tion Problem. North Dakota seems to have found the key to the question, "How shall we protect the people from frauds in manufactured products?" a plan which is applicable to foods, bever ages, materials used in the arts, etc. A new law has recently gone into ef fect designed to make it impossible to deceive people into buying inferior and adulterated paint under the im pression that they are getting real paint, viz.: pure white lead and lin seed oil. The North Dakota lawmakers did not attempt to absolutely prohibit the inferior pigments, or mixtures of pigments. They adopted the slogan, "Let the label tell," and then left to' the people to buy whichever they wished. Under this plan, if any one wishes to buy a mixtureof rock-dust, ground quartz and other cheap elements which are found in many paints and so-called "white leads," no one can object; for they do it with their eyes open. But if they prefer genuine white lead and linseed oil, they can be sure of getting it, for none but the genuine article can bear a label which says "pure white lead." In all other States mixtures are of ten sold as pure white lead which contain little sometimes no real white lead. It would seem that were this same principle applied to food, beverages and all other prepared articles, where deception is practiced upon the buy er, the question would be solved. It would leave us free to buy what we pleased, but would protect us from unwittingly buying what we did not want. It isn't what a man owes, but what he pays that keeps him poor.

Lawn Mowers4 Hospital. Grass-cutting machines of every Bize and shape, from tiny hand ma chines only six inches wide up to pony mowers of thirty-inch blades, meant for service ,on bowling greens and lawns of manorial dimensions, are now pouring into repairing shops for "fixing up" for the season. Most of them require the aid of the mower dentist, for their "teeth" are worn and blunt; many show signs of severe usage and of having been out in the rain for prolonged periods. A thor ough overhaul works wonders. The machine that looked so disreputable and "seedy" on entrance to Messrs. Green's "hospital," in Southward street, is sent heme in gay fresh paint with blades agleam and keen almost as razors. While foreign machines stand repairing badly, the English lawn mower can he rejuvenated from year to year. London Dally 'Mail. ? SHE HADN'T.

A Mien, woman rays: "I had been using coffee since I was old enough to have a cup of my own at the table, and from it I have suffered agony hundreds of times in the years past. "My trouble first began in the form of bilious colic, coming on every few weeks and almost ending my life. At every attack for 8 years I suf fered in this way. I used to pray for death to relieve me from my suffer ing. I had also attacks of sick head ache, and began to suffer from ca tarrh of the stomach, and of course awful dyspepsia. "For about a year I lived on crack ers and water. Believing that coffee was the cause of all this suffering, $ finally quit it and began to use Postum Food Coffee. It agreed with my stomach, my troubles have left me and I am fast gaining my health under its use. "No wonder I condemn coffee and tea. No one could be In a much more critical condition than I was from the use of coffee. Some doctors pro nounced it cancer, others ulceration, but none gave me any relief.

I tired easily, had no ambition and was failing fast. My com plexion got yellow, and I lost over 50 pounds. My thirst was terrible, , and there was sugar in the kidney secretions. My doctor kept me on a strict diet, but as his medicine was no helping me I began using Doan's Kidney Tills. -They helped me at once, and soon all traces of sugar disappeared.
