The United States geographical sur
. vey has ju. t issued a map of New York
I and vicinity. The map is engraved on
• copper and printed from stone. The
cultural features, such as roads, rail
roads, cities, towns, houses, etc., as well
as the lettering, are brought- out in
black, and other features, like swamps,
etc.., are clearly defined, making a valu
able chart of the territory.
More matches are used in the United
Kingdom than in any other one court
try in the world. It has been estimated
that English people use an average of
eight matches each person per day, and
annually over 1,700,000,000,000 are
burned. The largest match factory is
I in Austria, and each year It uses £2,000
| pounds of phosphorus, turns out 2,500,
1 000,000,000 matches, and for the boxe*
alone 160,000 feet of wood are used.
One pound a day is said to be the most
that an organ grinder ever takes, while,
with some exceptions, five snilungs
is about the least, so that a London or
gan grinder may Vie regarded as a fair
ly prosperous man. An organ can be
hired from the makers for one shil
ling sixpence a day, while the price of a
new organ is £25. The cost of setting
an organ to new tunes is about four
pounds, and, since novelty isessential,
this is a frequent source of expense.
If you wish to make a fountain pen,
take two ordinary steel pens of the
same pattern and insert them in thfc
common holder. The inner pen will be
the writing pen. Between this and the
outer pen will be held a supply of ink,
when they are once dipped into the ink
stand, that will last to write several
pages of manuscript. It is not neces
sary that the points of the two pens
should be very near together, but if
the flow of Ink is not rapid enough
the points may be brought nearer by a
bit of thread or a minute rubber band. ;
HABITS OF SPEECH.
Faulty tangiiagit Used la Child- i
hood Is Hard to Correct In
After I.lfe.
“Why do educated parents allow |
their children to contract habits of ua- j
grammatical speech that will have to be !
conquered in after-life?.’’ asked a spin- !
ster of a mother.
“Because they hate to worry the poor
little things about such matters when
they are young and should be care free.
It seems cruel to be all the time cor
recting them and keeping them on their
good behavior. They will have to learn
the rules of our dreadful language all
too soon as it is.’’
“Yes," said the spinster, “and in ad
dltion to learning to speak properly
they will have to unlearn the tricks of
speech in which they have been allowed
indulge all tlicir little lives. 1 know,”
laughing1, “that there is much ridicule
of ‘old maids’ children,’ but I believe
that my theory in this case is correct.
It is a positive unkindness to let your
child double his negatives and say
‘ain’t,’ when several years from now he
will be harshly reproved for such
lapses. The child must learn to talk,
anyway, and is it not as easy to teach
him to say ‘It is I,’ as ‘It’s me?’ And is
it not as simple for the little tongue to
lisp ‘1 saw it,’ as T seen it ?’ I love baby
talk, and should not correct a child for
his mispronunciation of hard words.
As he grows older he will himself see
his mistakes in that line and change
them. But T insist that It is a parent's
duty to make the difficult path to gram
matical speech as easy as possible by
never allowing the little ones to stray
from it in the beginning.”—Harper’s
Bazar.

A Topeka man who recently toured
Mexico tells that they have some very
curious criminal laws down there. For
example, the statutes make it twice as
much of an,offense to mutilate the face
of a woman as that of a man. While it:
the City of .Mexico he attended court
one day ami saw a man sentenced to
one year in prison for cutting his para
mour across the face with a knife. If i
his victim had been a man the sentence I
would not have been more than four
months at the outside. Ihe law seems
to be based on the idea that a woman’s
best possession is her beauty, and that
to mar it. does her a great injury, 'there
is another curious law. If a person
should be wounded in an encounter the
punishment to the offender is fixed by
the number of days his victim has to j
slay in the hospital or under a doctor’s '•
care. A line is fixed at 40 days in the
way of a general division. If the in
jured man occupies more than 40 days
in his recovery the penalty doubles up.

FEET AND INTELLECT
People with P«*«fa1 ExtrrmMkn
Are Xot Always Possessed of S«
perior .Men la 1 Aeqnireturn tn.
Small feet art* considered by many to
be a mark of aristocracy, but they cer
tainly do not indicate superiority of
Intellect, for many women of supreme
intelligence have had very large feet,
George Eliot, for instance, who re
sorted to ail kinds of devices to make
her big, broad, flat feat appear irss
enormous. Mint. Lb- s*iael, the most bril
liant woman intellectually of her day,
had such immense and ungainly feet
that slu was made miserable by the
consciousness of their undue propor
tions, and knew that she was the sub
ject of many a joke on their account.
Her face was not beautiful, but her
figure was handsome and -statuesque,
and she once ventured to assume the
role of a Greek statue in some tableaux
vivants which were given before an au
dience composed of clever and distin
guished people, among whom was the
witty Talleyrand. Mine. De Stael was
grievously offended at beariug that her
brilliant friend had invented a bon mot
at her expense by remarking that lie
had recognized (lie impersonator of (lie
Greek character at once by the “pied
de Stael.”
The Germans and Scotch are credited
with having the largest feet in Europe,
and Spanish women, particularly An
dalusians, the smallest. Tkc queen re
gent, who is Austrian and of as aristo
cratic a descent as the most fastidious
could desire, Is not blessed with small
feet ; they are large «and broad, and al
though, of course, she has the best of
chausseurs that money can procure,
they never look neat. This is one oi
the grievances that the Spaniards have
against bar, for they have a horror of
big feet on a woman, and look upon
such a defect ukin to crime.
I know a Spanish lady who went to
Berlin, and a few days after her arrival,
on dressing for a ball she discovered
that her maid had forgotten to pack the
case containing her evening shoes. She
sent out for a pair, giving one of her
walking shoes as a sample, and after a
prolonged absence the messenger re
turned saying that no shoemaker had
anything so small on his premises ex
cept for very young children. The
whole city was searched, with the same
result, and she was obliged to wear her
walking shoes until some could he made
for her. The shoemaker did not have
a last small enough, and « special one
had to be made, which fact gives elo
quent if not altogether flattering proof
concerning the truth of what we hear
anent the size of the German ladies’
feet. Such a size and shape as 3 A
would, I think, not he found in any oth
er country, yet it is commonly asked
for here. English women are great
walkers, and wear wide, comfortable
boots for their long rambles through
muddy country lanes—they scorn rub
bers—and in consequence their feet
have become broad, but compared to
those of their Scotch sisters they are
fairylike.
French women have short, thick feet
and their shoes made rather to increase
this appearance than otherwise. They
wear their high heels almost in the mid
dle of the foot, the instep is padded to
arch it, and she whose foot is long and
narrow- will use every art to take oft
about half its length, the result be
ing that as she gets older site is so
troubled with corns and bunions that
a pair of good old felt slippers—'her
husband’s preferably—are the only
tilings she can endure with comfort,
and in these she will shuffle about the
house, an eyesore to everyone wtio see*
her, donning the high heels, however,
for outdoor wear religiously, for a tru*
French woman will suffer the torture*
of the inquisition every day of her life
with all the fortitude of a saint rather
than wear a sensible, low-heeled shoe
that would give any idea of the real
shape of her foot.—N. Y. Telegram.
NOTHING IS FORGOTTEN.
One Story That 11 In* t ra t e* the Te
nacity »f the Subjective
Mind.
A year ago a Chicago woman w as vis
iting in u New York village. She went
with her hostess to make a call on the
next-door neighbor. The woman on
whom she was culling incidentally men
tioned that she expected a niece w he
was just graduating ut some college
Her name was not mentioned. A few
days later tlie Chicago woman left. On
her way to the. station site-stopped next
door to get a parcel. It was handed t<;
her by a voting woman. That is all
there was to that end of the story.
One day lately the Chicago woman j
went on a lake trip. On the boat she
met a young woman from a neighbor
ing state. Each thought the other’s
face was familiar, but neither said any
thing about it. Finally a common
friend happened to mention a Michi
gan stun liter resort to the Chicago wom
an. The Chicago woman had never
been there, but had relatives who went
there every year. This led to a men
tion of the New York village. In a
Hash the Chicago woman knew that the
girl with the familiar face was the one
who gave her the parcel the day she
left. The minute 11 it* name of the vil
lage was mentioned to the girl she rec
ognized the Chicago woman as tJie one
tii whom she lmd handed the parcel.
This is a good example of what the
hypnotists and ’•suggestionists” call
the subjective mind. It illustrates very
aptly the old saying that nothing i*
really forgotteu, and that all impres
sions are indelibly engraved upon the
mental retina. In this fact lies the ex
planation of many vagaries of the mitul
that on the face of things puzzle the
smentUls.—Chicago Inter Ocean.

i The Weekly Globe-Democrat, of St. Louis, covers afield j!
field peculiarly and exclusively it own.
It is issued twice every week. A big Semi-Weekly j|
paper. Eight to ten large pages every Tuesday and Friday. I
One Dollar a year.
Nothing particularly different, y. say. ab->ut that—there j
are other “Twice a-Week’’ paper.-.
Yes, but the similarity ends tr. r . Xo other paper is like I
j the Globe-Democrat in any other respect. X other paper
I equals the Globe-Democrat in any r ct.
An entirely unique feature of the Globe-Democrat, a
feature which is highly prized by its readers, is its systematic
method of preserving and presenting the continuity of news.
The two papers each week, Tuesday and Friday, are care
fully prepared with the view of giving the complete news of
all the world for that week.
They are so combined in the make-up as to form continued
connected stories of the various important events, showing the
developments from day to day and the final results.
Other weekly and twice-a-week papers, as a rule, print
only a few telegrams of the day of issue.
The “Twice-a-Week” Globe-Democrat gives the telegrams
of every day in the week more comprehensively than the
average Daily, and of more value to the average reader.
Moreover, the “Twice-a-Week"’ Globe-Democrat is not
simply an echo of the Daily edition.
It is a separate and distinct publication, especially prepared
to supply the requirements of people' who want all the news of
all the earth—and something more.
It presents the World’s daily history in concise but com
plete form. It is of equal interest in all parts of the United
States. It is invaluable alike to men and women, young and
old.
It thoroughly provides for every member of the family.
In high grade literature it particularly excels. Its market re
ports are correct and complete in every detail.
Its departments devoted to “The Home,” “The Farm and
Garden,” “The Family Circle,” f,The Sunday School,”
“Science and Industry,” are each and all The Best of their
kind and either one is more than worth the subscription price
of the paper.
In politics it is strictly Republican, but it is above all a
newspaper, and it tells the truth without fear or favor. It j
has no equal or rival as a great National news and home J
journal
Remember the price, only One Dollar per year—104 papers
—less than one cent a copy. Pasta ve prepared.
You will make no mistake if you send $1.00 today for a
year’s subscription. Or you can get your own paper one year
without cost by indulging two of your neighbors to subscribe !
and sending their names with $2.00.
Free sample copies, containing order blanks and full par
ticulars, will be cheerfully furnished upon receipt of postal
card request. Address Globe Printing Company, Publishers.
