IDEAL Ilf HOTTSEKEEPINO.
>»»f et the Old Customs and Co»
| dltlons Are Passing Entlll*
If Away.
A generation ago to be an Ideal hous^
keeper was the chief ambition of almost
every woman. No girl desired a fairer
fate than to be placed at the head of a
household with a good and loving hus
band to supply all her vrsu.^ and make
her the mistress and the queen of hit
heart and his home. In most cases, saya
the Peoria Herald Transcript, the girl
who started housekeeping had more or
!**■ •*P*risnoe in the art under the tuition
of her mother. She loved to decorate and
beautify the house which was to be her
home during the rest of her earthly pil
grimage. She loved to create dellcaclea
for her husband and her children, and,
disguise it aa we may, much of the af
fection she reoeived was due entirely to
her skill aa a homemaker. .When her
children grew up around ner thia kind
and aympathetlc mother and the pantry
were the chief attractlona in their world.
Aa they grew older the ties only grew tho
stronger. When they acquired families
i their own tho old homestead, with
Its abundance of good things, still had
attractions **r them. The kind old
mother was still their best friend. She
knew all the difficulties they had to en
counter In starting homes of their own,
and her advice and sympathy were
worth more to them than gold. The
grandchildren came to venerate her as a
sort of venerable goddess, and when
she finally went away from the home
circle she left a vacancy which could
never be filled.
But we are assured with every symp
tom of rejoicing that these conditions
are passing; that women have beea
emancipated; that In the future they are
to be the rival, Instead of the helpmate,
of man, and that they must combine to
enforce their Just demands against the
hostility of the male sex. This Is non
sense pure and simple. It may be trus
that there are more mannish women in
this generation than there were in the
last. It is unfortunately true that a
larger proportion of the female popula
tion has been forced to be self-support
ing, but It is not true that women enjoy
the so-called "liberty” which goes with
tolling for a living.
Tha home instinct is too deeply
planted In the heart of women to be re
moved bv the effects of a feneration oi
club work. It will never be removed. A
few women may go after strange gods,
but the natural, wholesome girl will still
find her highest Ideal of happiness in
a good husband and a cozy home. Ths
clubs may succeed In making such homes
Impossible to a few men and women by
making the young women feel that they
have a more Important work In ths
world than the prosaic duty of home
making, but among the masses of ths
American people the mother will con
tinue to be the bond which unites ths
unities of that holy Institution the fam
ily, and she will continue In this exalted
role until the end of all things.
WHAT DROVE HIM TO DRINK,
m* Was Happy and Yet There Was
an Avrfnl Possibility Op
pressing Her.
“Da/ling,” he said, as he placed his
arm around her waist and drew her ten
derly to his breast, relates the New York
Times, “why those pearly tears? Is the
home that 1 have brought you to less
magnificent than you expected?”
“Oh, n-no,” she eobbed. “It Is g-grand
er than 1 dared to h-hope.”
“Have you found since our marriage
that I am less exalted than you had sup
posed me to be?”
"Oh, F-Fred, you are a th-thousand
times more exalt-t-ted than 1 thougfit
you to b-be.”
Stooping down he kissed away two
large tears that were trembling upon her
long, graceful lashes, and asked:
“Has it grieved you to be taken from
your parents and the scenes of your
childhood, little one.”
“No, no, dear-dearest,” she replied.
“I would g-gladly go anywhere w-wtth
you"
“Great heavens!" he cried, In wild
alarm. “Perhaps you are ill. Tell ms.
Is it so, sweetheart?"
"No," she said, through a fresh burst
of tears, “it is not that."
A look of deep perplexity overspread
his handsome visage, and, pushing her
DftCK SO I1C CUU1U uunu aum#
her big, beautiful, tear-dimmed eyes, be
asked:
“Then, what In the dickens Is tht
trouble?”
"I was J-Just think-thinking,” she re
turned, “how miserable I should be If
you were to die and I w-were to marry

this magnificence.”

A “SHOWERPROOF” CLOTH.
Ctenn&na Treat Ordinary Materials
1 with Petroleum—Curious Aquatic
Displays In Tailors’ Windows.
It has usually been thought
that rubber was about the only
substance which would render
cloth waterproof, although oil silk
is coated with another one, a prep
aration of linseed oil. However,
"showerproof” cloth is known as
that which repels water very
largely and yet remains porous,
appearing in all respects like of
diary wetable cloth. The methods
of treatment of such cloth are
often trade secrets, and even the
patent specifications do not di
, vnlge all that must be done to
achieve a satisfactory result.
"Petroleum,” a German period
ical, says that the oil to which
that paper owes its name is one of
the most successful showerproof
preparations. It says that the
only reliable shower proof is ob
tained by impregnating the cloth
outside and in with a fine film of
waxes. Paraffin wax is the staple,
bnt owing to its low melting point
It is not fit for nse alone. The com
position used is so alloyed with
other waxes and chemicals.thakat
the boiling point of water the wax
stands firm. A rather elaborate
preparatory form must be gone
through, and after the wax has
been applied a finishing process is
required. The interesting fact re
mains that it is petroleum that
keeps out the wet. In tailors' win
flows in Germany many aqnatic
displays have been arranged to
show that cloth can mysteriously
be made to exhibit the power of
the duck's back. Wool, cotton,
silk, linen, velvets, braids, and
| even sails, awnings and tent
cloths are thus wrapped in an in
visible film of rock oil.

PHYSICAL CONSCIOUSNESS.
The Brain in Certain States of Activ
ity Can Act on the Organle
functions.
“Cenesthesia” is the name giyeo
to the general feeling we have of
the existence of our own bodies,
says the London Globe. This
sense of existence is chiefly owing
to accidental and local impres
sions awakening or stimulating
I the sensibility, but it Is completed
by a certain obverse conscious
ness of the exercise of the organic
functions, for example, respira
tion. It is by this sensation that
the spiritual Ego perceives itself
existing locally in the limited ex
tent of the organism. In perfect
health this feeling is continuous,
uniform, and equal, and therefore,
not special or local. In order to be j
remarked a certain exaltation of j
well-being or distinct uneasiness j
Is required. In the hypnotic state ;
certain subjects have a more or '
less distinct perception of their !
internal organs and can exert cer
tain action over them. In fact,
they can modify at will all the
functions of the “vegetative” life,
for instance, the beating of the
j heart. The fact shows that the
brain in certain states of activity
can act on the organic functions.
If there is a nervous current from
the brain to the organs there is
also, perhaps, a contrary current
from the organs to the brain. Dr.
Cromer, Liebault^ and others,
maintain that some hypnotic sub

Immortelles.
The manufacture of immortelle
wreaths in Paris occupies at least j
1,500 persons. The immortelles ;
are gathered about the beginning j
of October, and come chiefly from
the arid hills in the middle and
south of France. They are
brought to the markets in their
natural condition, and the yellow
blossoms are dyed green, red and
white, and woven into wreaths by
special workmen In readiness for
All Saints’ and All Souls’ days,
when all good Parisians visit their
relatives’ graves. On these “fetes
des morts” the gates of the ceme
teries are beset with crowds of
dealers in immortelle wreaths,
wire crosses and bead crowns.
At Pere la Chaise alone more than
200.000 persons are calculated to
visit the cemetery, and the sale of
immortelle wreaths varies from
20.000 to 25,000.—Golden Penny.

WAS WASHINGTON’S STAFF.
Interesting History of Cane Once
Owned by Father of Hie
Country.
One of the things that passed
through the Baltimore tire un
scathed was a cane once owned by
George Washington and now the
property of Maj. H. H. Raleigh.
The cane reposed during the tire
in the vault of the Merchants’
Credit and Collection Bureau at
Liberty and German streets, says
the New York Sun.
“In Gen. Washington’s will,”
said Maj. Raleigh, “two canes are
mentioned. One was bequeathed
to Robert Washington, of Chop
tank, Va., who gave it to Robert
Thompson, a relative.
“Later it passed to Miss Kittle
Thompson, a sister of Robert
Thompson, and finally Peter Gra
son Washington of New Yorl^
who was assistant secretary of the
treasury under Guthrie, was the
owner of the stick.
“Peter Grason Washington be
queathed the cane to the oldest
male heir of Gen. George Wash
ington who was living at the time
of his death. The late Mrs. Ra
leigh was a granddaughter of a
Mrs. McPherson, of Washington,
t>. C., who before her marriage
was a Miss Washington. After
some contention it was proved
that Mrs. Raleigh’s brother,
whose family name was Edwards,
was the person entitled to the pos
session of the cane. I purchased
the relic for my wife, and when
she died it became my property.”
Although described as a cane,
the relic is really a staff. It is of
bamboo, about four and a half
feet long and just such a stick as
Washington might have used in
tramping oVer his broad acres in
Mount Vernon. The Washington
coat-of-arms adorns its gold head,
and it is encircled with a gold band,
upon which is inscribed:
“Willed to Robert Washington
and by him to descend to Peter
Grason Washington, of New
York.”
As soon as the embers had
cooled, Maj. Raleigh hastened to
the vault and was much relieved
to And after the cane had been re
moved from the chamois skin case
that it had not been scorched.
SHARK AS A MESSENGER.
Carried Newspaper to Sydney Outdis
tancing Steamer Conveying Im
portant Item of News.
The story of the discovery ol
human bones and bangles in the
interior of the crocodile captured
at Fort Johnson, Rhodesia,
brings to mind another story
which may appositely be recalled
at the present juncture. Every
body has heard of “Mrs. Macquar
Tie’s chair,” as they call the east
ern point of Farm Cove, in Sydney
harbor. There, says the St
James’ Gazette, it was that a poor
emigrant, in pre-cable days, killed
and towed ashore a shark, cut him
up, and found a London newspa
per in the internals. In the paper
was the announcement of the war
between France and Germany,
The shark had outdistanced the
steamer by which the mail was
coming, and here the discoverer
had the fact to himself. He gava
his information to a wealthy wool
dealer, who bought all the sea
son’s clip at 9d. per pound, anq
sold at 3s. after the news of the
11 • 11 ii i*
war iiiiu ttinvcu uj me urumaij
channel. He cleared, it ia said,
four millions sterling by the deal.
The man who killed the shark and
extracted the news of price—well,
he received a battered silk hat
and a five shilling piece and unre
strained liberty as to the disposal
of the shark.
Forgot the Chimney.
A short time ago a public cero
mony was to be carried out at
Landshut, an important town in
Lower Bavaria. A new public
school was to be formally opened,
and all Landshut quivered with
pleasurable anticipation. Unfor
tunately the festivities had to be
put off at the last moment. The
school could not be opened. No
scholar could take his seat upon
the brand-new forms. The land
was in the grip of winter, and the
architect had forgotten to provide
a single chimney throughout the
building.
