Station in a Cemetery.
The cemetery at Brookwood, near
Woking. In probably the only one in
Fngland that has a railway station in-
blde the grounds. This Is used chiefly
for the purposes of the crematorium
there. It In a pretty little station on
the single line that leads from the
London and Southwestern railway into
the cemetery, and it stands in tho
Church of Knglantl portion of the
ground. There Is a fair-sized platform,
with a waiting room tipon it, and a
small "mortuary" if the structure
may be so termed. Close 'by stands
the church, at the end of the plat-
form. so that there is little distance
to go for those mourners who come

were lying dead in the bush. On the
march the caravan had suddenly
found ItBelf In the midst of a herd of
elephants, and (so Mohamed declar-
ed) they had been obliged to clear the
front by shooting five elephants to let
the camels through! The Somali is
as keen on elephant-hunting as any
one, so I had my own opinion on the
subject."
Again comes this report: "Butter
and Duff had an exciting time with a
solitary elephant, which charged them
repeatedly in a place where it was not
too easy lo dodge. His splendid tusks,
weighing over 130 pounds each, wer
Butter's trophy."

Woeful Lack of Confidence.
Wilton Lackaye tells of a Chicago
woman about to wed who was one day
amusing herself by going over tho
marriage service. To a friend who
discovered her. prayer book In hand,
the Windy City girl said:
"I always make it a point to do this,
for jm matter how well you may have
known a part in the past it should
always be rehearsed before the piece
is revived." Then, rather playfully,
she read the words, "Till death do us
part.''
Whereupon her friend Interrupted:
"How foolish that is, isn't it, dear?
Sounds like ono hasn't any confidence
in the courts!"
THE TIBET AN JINGAL.
BOYS AND GIRLS.
In the May Delinentor there Is a
paper by l.illie Hamilton French
which contains much sensible advice
to mothers of marriageable sons, and
to mothers-in-law. The following par-
agraph on the antagonism that is fos-
tered between boys and girls in child-
hood is worth quoting:
" 'Just like a boy,' or 'Just like a
girl.' one or the other is perpetually
told, ami always in the way of re-
proach. When Ihe hoy displays an un-
due feeling someone says to him:
Your mother ought to put you in pet-
ticoats.' When the little girl tries to
throw a ball she is told that the boys
will laugh at her. Tho
Bexes begins then and goes ceaseh
ly on. Why should these things be so?
Boys and girls are in this world to
grow tip together, to live together, to
take their places side hy side, as
parents and as guides to the genera-
tions coming after them. You, per-
haps. are afraid to say so to your
children, afraid 'of putting Ideas into
their heads.' You find it easier to
leave them to lie taken unawares hy
newly awakened emotions, which
plunge them into matrimony before
even know what its responsihili-
entail, leaving them, as unhappy
led people, to flounder atvav. as
they can, out of their own mis-
takes."

PRESERVING THE DEAD.
The illustration shows one of the strange and primitive weapons still
used by (he Tibetans in warfare. It is of leather, in layers, and bound
about with metal rings, and was captured by the British after the fight
near Gyanggtse. Stones were piled under the muzzle to get the neces-
sary elevation. Naturally, the gun Is more noisy than dangerous.
Was a Poor Guesser.
: An active city ward worker, who^
when he promi*< s to support a man,
will do it in spite of everything, was
sought out to secure his co-operatios
' before a certain election.
After the election was over and the
votes all counted and the candidate
was found to have been beaten by
about three to one, and as one of his
lieutenants could count up the names
of many more persons who had prom-

How Barnum Got a Front Seat.
Rev. Dr. Robert Collyer, New York's
famous octogenarian preacher, is
fond of telling this story:
"One Sunday morning shortly after
I had entered the pulpit l got up and
said:
" 'I see in the congregation, a good
way back a man who always gives me
a gool seat whenever I go to see him
and his. I want to reciprocate his
kindness. Let him come up front.'
"And when the congregation turned
as one man to see who was making
his way up the aisle they saw none
other than P. T. Barnum."
NEWSPAPERS FOR WOMEN.
Mr. Harmsw'orth, the English news-
paper man. gays: "I had for many
years a theory that a daily newspaper
for women was In urgent request, and
I started one. The belief cost me
$100,000. I found out that I was beat-
In order to preserve the features
of those who have died It is proposed
by a Russian to embalm corpses by
of the | casting around them a solid mass of
glass. This would be perfectly trans-
parent, and as no air could get In the
features would be preserved indefi-
nitely. Of course, it is not possible
to pour molten glass directly on the
body, so it is first coated with a thin
coating of so-called "liquid glass," or
sodium salicate. This is allowed to
harden and forms a protective coat-
ing. The body is then put in a mold
and melted glass poured around it.
When this Is hardened we have a
solid, transparent mass inclosing the
body. The inventor of this process
hopes that some day we will have a
large museum filled with the perfectly |
preserved bodies of the great men of
their times for future generations to
gaze upon.—Collier's Weekly.
" 'But tho Turkish ladles who trav-
el on our trains all smoke themselves,'
replied tho guard.
"'Do they, indeed?' replied tho old
j lady, acidly; 'but American women do
I not smoke.'
"'Very true, madam.' replied the
guard, 'but you are not in America:
| you are in Turkey'—still with much
civility.
" 'I don't care if I am,' hissed the
I old lady, fiercely, 'and I don't care if
the Turkish women do smoke. They
| ought not to, so there!'
" 'Perhaps they ought not to,' said
the guard, with unruffled courtesy,
'but they do.'
"The old American lady looked at
him hopelessly, gasped, and subsided."
Woman's Wise Use of Money.
A Long Island flty school teacher,
who has fallen heir to Jl'O.non, an

teach and hopes to be more efficient
than before.

STILL MANY OPPORTUNITIES.
Voting men nowadays are inclined to
the opinion that the opportunities for
making fortunes are not as great as
they were a half or even a quarter of
a century ago. As a matter of fact
there is plenty of evidence that the
avenues to fortunes arc as unobstruct-
ed now as they ever were. Indeed,
the demand for men who are capable
and reliable is now greater than ever
before and where there is such a de-
mand there are opportunities for mak-
ing fortunes.—Savannah, Ga.. News.
