Some People Are AltTnys Out on
Parade.
It is a strange fancy which seizes
some people whose highest delight
teems to be reached when they can live
their lives in full sight of the world.
In whatever they do they are literally
possessed with the itch to be seen; to be
conspicuous. If they travel it must
be in the most evident manner. If they
go to the country only the most crowd
ed places will answer. If they go to
the theater the very acme of their hap-
piness is attained when they sit in a
box. If they drive it is Invariably in
the showiest turnout. If they affect
the bicycle either in their dress or in
the ornamentation of their machine
they must be unlike other people. If
they promenade It must be nlong the
most prominent thoroughfares. When
they affect dress it is invariably to
overdress. They must have the most
conspicuous table in the hotel dining-
room; the best things on the bill-of-fare
are never good enough; they must
always have extras. They must do
something that they may be singled out
from other people. They must be in
evidence or they are not happy and
oddly enough too the people of these
proclivities are never the ones who try
to impress others with the Idea that
they belong to an exalted station in life
whereas their very actions never fail
to place them where they really do be-
long. Their exact measure is easily
taken. It is hard for such people to
accept the fact that the quietest conduct
is ever associated with true worth or
genuine gentility. It is only the vul-
gar class which flaunts itself in the face
of the public A quiet dress a retiring
manner a withholding of opinion;
these are the true marks of the well-
bred woman. But quietness does not
suit the woman who wishes to make '
herself conspicuous. The woman who '
places herself in evidence does not rca- I
lire that she is being looked at askance
as well and by the very people whose
goodly opinion she courts. Well-bred
women are like the daintiest flowers
they grow in the shadiest places. The
violet never obtrudes. The lily-of-the-valley
seeks the shadiest nook. And

HER CUFFS AND COLLARS.
The Windsor Tie the Most Iraportnnt
Accession of the Shirt AVnlst.
More Important to the wearer of the

self is her stock of accessories her col-
lars cuffs belts ties and studs. This
season she has an unusually larjje as
sortment from which to choose.
The straight standing coat band
which came in just at the close of the
past season is one of the most popular
shapes. The cuffs that match should
be fastened with the regulation button
not links nor those of the dumbbell or-
der. The next collar in popularity and
somewhat newer and more generally
becoming is called the two-inch turn-
over. It consists of a high standing por-
tion with two turnover sections having
square sections opened back and front.
This is to be worn with one of the many
fashionable stocks or with the most
fashionable of all cravats at present.
the new Windsor tie. This cravat is
straight not bias as was the Windsor
of time past. It is about three inches
wide and two yards long. It is carried
around the collar from the front to the
back where it is crossed then brought
to the front again and tied in a wide
opened bow.
The effect is not as stiff as the stock.
Other neckbands to be worn with this
new" cravat are those that flare
around the throat. The most novel
one which is suited only to faces both
pretty and fresh is the Portia. This
consists of a band of medium height
closed in front with two studs and has
an outstanding portion of -three de
cided points. The cuffs to match are
similar in shape but instead of flaring
lie neatly against the outside of the
sleeve.
The collar adapted for similar ties or
those made up in stiff bows have in
many instances turnover hemstitched
points. An admirable example has
two double points in front while others
have as many as eight or ten put on all
around the neckband and falling just
the least bit below its lower edge. The

years ago. He spent two years learning
the Portuguese language and in the
last five years has made over 300 con-
verts to the Christian faith in Itio
Grande do Sul. When he went to that
country he found a population of 20-
000 people 160 of which were communi-
cants in the Roman Catholic church.
He found no opposition from the Ro-
manists to his work and they encour-
aged him. He was welcomed by the
press and the educated people who
while they did not themselves believe in
Christianity wanted the common peo-
ple to believe in it for the moral good
it did the community.
"I cannot begin to express the condi-
tion existing there at that time" said the
doctor. "The civil laws had nothing in
them to aid a man to protect his family
honor: Nothing but cowardly revenge
would do. If a man succeeded in induc-
ing another man's wife to leave him he
had no recourse to law. He would eith-
er have to grin and bear it or kill the
paramour. The woman or man were
not punishable by law.
"Marriage is a civil contract there.
Church or religious marriages are not
recognized and the Homau church has
gotten into considerable trouble by
openly opposing this law.
"I have been in this country since
September 21 lecturing on the work in
Brazil and the conditions existing there.
Missions may be needed in foreign coun-
tries but they can be needed no place
worse than they are in Brazil. The pro-
prietors of papers editors and educated
people are not Christians. Their fathers
may have been before them and the
Roman Catholic church is the estab-
lished church of the country but these
people believe in humanity. They call
themselves Comptists and won't per-
mit the word 'infidel' to be used. Sun
day schools were unknown throughout
Brazil. We now have a Sunday school
of 600 children.
"A heavy tax was required by the
church to bury people. This became
burdensome and it is quite a common
thing for deceased people to be hauled
past my door and Interred like beasts.
Such a thing as a burial service for the
poorer classes is unknown. The richer
people sometimes avail themselves of
the privilege offered by the church. In
the entire district in which I live few
people are even moral.

church has received the hearty recom
mendation of all classes; and we have

Neir Uses (or Glass.
Attention was recently called in this
column to the proposed use of glass
brick in building. It is now said that
the government of Switzerland has
approved the use of glass for making
weights to be employed with balance-
scales. A peculiarly tough kind of
glass is to be selected for this purpose.
From England comes the suggestion
that gloss would be a better and more
lasting material than stone for making
monuments which art exposed to the
wearing action of the weather.

Child at Its Mother's
Knee.
There are manj parents who are con-
scientious in their desire to give their
children an environment which will
make them useful men and women who
seem utterly oblivious of the value of
the refinements of human life in mold-
ing the character. The remark is fre-
quently made in describing certain in
dividuals that "they are well-educated
but utterly without culture." This is
certainly a contradiction. A properly-
educated person must be cultured
that is she must have so thoroughly
digested her knowledge that it has
modified nnd refined her character.
The meaning however is clear and
conveys a truth that ought to be gen-
erally recognized by parents. Learn-
ing is not culture nor knowledge wis-
dom. We cannot lead our children into
a higher life by surrounding them by
sordid and coarse associations and
then by one supreme effort in expendi-
ture as a sort of financial speculation
send them through college. Such an
education seldom pays considered from
the lowest standpoint.
The education of a child begins at its
mother's knee and continues until the
child arrives at mature years. The
home education is far more lasting than
the school education. Surround your
home. with good literature. It is hardly
possible to be too fastidious In this
matter. Where the library is limited
there is only space for "the immortals"
the few names the world is not will-
ing to let die. Every good book which
is brought to the house is an investment
in the education of the children. Every
good engraving hung upon the walls
molds the taste. Keep the walls bare
until you can afford to hang good pic-
tures upon them. Coarse gaudy pic-
tures vitiate the taste and leave im-
pressions that it takes years to eradi-
cate which are apt to haunt the mind
of a child sensitive to color and form
like a nightmare. There are plenty of
cheap photographs of good pictures
which cost less than the materials for a
gaudy oil painting. Simple casts of the
masterpieces of sculpture are very inex-
pensive and are now finished with wax
so they may be washed off without in-
jury when they are soiled. Such casts
as Michael Angelo's "Slave" or any of
the great works of masters are an educa-
tion. Barye's studies of auimal life are
all reproduced In plaster and are ex-
cellent gifts for boys or girls who are
interested in animals. Such refine-
ments of life as these educate while
fine raiment soft beds and rich food
may enervate the character.
Music and musical instruments all as-
sist in molding the character and refin-
ing the nature by lifting the individual
above the sordid pursuit of the com-
monplace things of life. Children can-
not be properly educated unless they
have some chance to see the world ont-
.side their immediate neighborhood.
When the father is going on a journey
if only to a neighboring town it is an
education and help to his boy at 12 to
go with him. It trains him to meet
strangers with ease. It is a help to him
and to all the children to be allowed to
help receive company. It costs some-
thing to be hospitable but it pays in the
influence upon children who are thus
properly trained to entertain company.
Children who are accustomed to the
presence of visitors acquire an easy
manner and learn to be tactful and
graceful. Such an education cannot be
overestimated in assisting a young per-
son to make his way in the world pro-
viding it is supplemented by an emi-
nently practical education at school or
college. X. Y. Tribune.

"I'm a believer in the bicycle" de-
clared a lawyer of prominence the other
day. "In fact I ride one myself and de-

but I know of more than one instance
where it has led to family dissension.
"I was called upon professionally the
other day by a fine-looking intelligent

inaries she stated that she desired my
services in procuring a divorce.
" 'Upon what grounds madam?'
" 'You can give them a technical
name after I have told you what they
are. No couple ever lived more happily
than did Fred and myself until he
"brought a tandem home for our joint
use. He thought it best that we should
do our wheeling together and I agreed
with him. His thoughtfulncss and de-
sire to be with me were very pleasing.'
" 'To be sure.'
"'But all my anticipations were
blasted. He developed a stubbornness
that I never before discovered in his
character. He never proposed going
where I wanted to go. If I had my mind
set upon going to the island he went to
the boulevard and if I had a preference
for one street he selected another. It
often occurred too that when one of
us was anxious to go out the other was
not in the mood. I cannot endure an-
other such season."

WALLED UP ALIVE.
Seventeen Monks Iteslen Themselves
to n Llvintr Touib. .
The stories of self-torture inflicted
by religious fanatics in India and the
similar tales which come down to us
from the middle ages are all eclipsed
by actual occurrences in our own day
and in close touch with nineteenth cen-
tury European civilization.
The monks of the Greek church are
noted for their insane practices in this
respect but a recent affair has eclipsed
anything heretofore made known of
their cruelties to themselves and each
other in their efforts to gain the crown
of martyrdom.
A St. Petersburg dispatch to the Lon-
don Daily News cabled to New York
tells the story and the Russian consul
general in New York as well as the pas-
tor of the Greek orthodox church here
sees nothing in the alleged facts which
they regard as incredible in the light of
their knowledge concerning the prac-
tices of certain of the Greek church
monks.
The story simply is that 17 monks in
a hermitage of Tirespol in the province
of Kherson deliberately decided to
cause themselves to be walled up in the
monastery that they might earn mar-
tyrdom by this horriblo death. They
presented the scheme to a brother
monk and so far from being shocked
at the horrible proposition he ap-
plauded it as a meritorious act of piety
and self-punishment. He volunteered
moreover to act as mason in walling his
brethren in their living tomb and they
accepted his services.
It was not until their mysterious dis-
appearance began to excite comment
that an investigation was made. It was
at first thought they had emigrated
but when the remaining monks were
closely questioned one of them con-
fessed that he had helped them to com-
mit suicide in the manner above de-
scribed. There was a descent upon the monas-
tery by the police and when the wall
was torn away at the point indicated
the horrible truth of the story which
had seemed beyond belief was re-
vealed. A reporter for the New York World
asked Baron Schippenbach the Russian
consul-general to New York as to tfie
probable truth of the story and he said:
"There arc at present several sects
of religious fanatics in Russia who in-
flict upon themselves tortures of the
most barbarous nature. These people
are to be found for the most part in the
south central part of Russia and arc I
believe nominally at least under the
control of the Greek church. Their re
ligious rites arc frequently so violent as
to come within the law. They frequent-
ly cut and slash themselves and evince
their religious zeal with similar pleas-
ant practices.
"I cannot say that the report that
the monks killed themselves in order
that they might pose as martyrs is true
but I have no reason to doubt it. A
monk who offends in this way is con-
sidered an ordinary criminal and pun-
ished as such. These fanatics curious-
ly often lead very active lives making
their homes in the large cities where
they try by every means to win converts
to their remarkable beliefs. In some
cases I have known them to do a large
business as money lenders."
Agathadorus A. Papageorgopulos
pastor of the Greek Orthodox chapel
said:
"I have no doubt that the story of
the Greek monks being walled up in
their monastery is true. The religious
life of some of these sects has descended
into mere fanaticism. Of course the
most charitable view to take of such a
practice is that these people are suffer-
ing from mental derangement. The un
fortunate men are it is true members
of the Greek church but the church is
by no means responsible for their acL
"The entire Greek church is nominal-
ly under the head of the patriarch in
Constantinople but the various parts
of the church are allowed the greatest
possible freedom in administering their
affairs. The monasteries of our church
are governed by rules not unlike those
of the Catholic monasteries. The monks
live the ascetic lives common to such
orders. They dress in the cheapest
clothing and cat the plainest food.
Isolated as they are it sometimes hap-
pens that their religious zeal takes the
form of self-torture. Such practices it
is hardly necessary to add have not the
sanction of the church at large."
HepnlrlnK n Broken Heart.
Up to the present the reparation of
broken hearts has been a psychical
rather than a physical operation but
times have changed. From Berlin
comes the announcement that at the
surgical congress recently held there a
great sensation was caused by the an-
nouncement of Dr. Rche of Frankfort
during a lecture on the treatment of
wounds of the heart that he had treated
a case successfully. He stated that he
applied the general principles of ar-
rest of hemorrhage to wounds of the
heart which was to freely expose the
wounded organ and sew the severed
edges together. He showed a patient
who had been stabbed in the heart and
would in the ordinary course have been
allowed to die in hospital. Dr. Belie laid
bare the heart and found that the site
of the wound was in the right side. He
sewed the wound up. The heart worked
most violently during the operation.
But in spite of this stormy commotion
(sturmischen bewegungen) the patient
recovered. Invention.
The Greatest Discovery Yet.
W. M. Repine editor Tiskilwa 111.
"Chief" says: "We won't keep house
without Dr. King's new discovery for
consumption coughs and colds. Ex-
perimented with many others but
never got the true remedy until we
used Dr. King's new discovery. No
other remedy can take Its place in our
home as in it we have a certain and
sure cure for coughs colds whooping
cough etc." It is idle to experiment
with other remedies even if they are
urged on you as just as good as Dr.
King's new dkcovery. They arc not
as good because this remedy has a
record of cures and besides is guaran-
teed. It never fails to satisfy. Trial

It was a street brawl.

times he struck and three times he

"It's no use" he wailed despairingly

Ignorance nnd superstition were
among the greatest forces that the Eng-
lish government had to overcome in
dealing with the plague in India. It
was found out by the authorities that
one of the chief causes of the reluc-
tance of the natives to enter hospitals
was due to the fear that they would be
killed because they believed that the
queen in revenge for the insult offered
to her statue had demanded the lives
of 30000 inhabitants of Bombay. Al-

Itensons AVhr There Is n Rood Mar-
ket In Australia.
The reason why so large a quantity
of American wheat was imported into
Australia last year is explained by Dan-
iel W. Marattn United States consul-
general at Melbourne. It appears that
wool-growing is regarded by Australi-
ans as 'much the most important
industry nnd in pursuing that the
Australian farmer is often led to neg-
lect the cultivation of wheat. As a
rule the larger "squatters" or ranch-
men do not care to devote their time
to farming preferring to give all of
their nttention to sheep raising.
"The consumption of wheat in this
colony" writes Consul Marattn "is at
the rate of six bushels to the acre and
ns the crop of last year only yielded
4 2-10 bushels to the acre it will
readily be seen that the colonists
were short of their requirements nearly
two bushels to the acre. To meet this
deficiency the first for a great many
years large imports were made from
the United States. These shipments
were made from San Francisco with
the exception of one or two vessels
from New York." It is becoming a
common custom among Australian
ranchmen to rent their land for wheat-
growing on sh-ires the ranchmen fur-
nishing the land nnd the seed and some
reigliboring farmer doing all the work.
As the wool-growing industry however
is constantly tending to crowd ont the
wheat cultivation there is a prospect
that increased demands upon America
for wheat supplies will be made in the
future.
Mr. Maratta says: "It has been won-
dered how it is that Australia can pro-
duce wool and for that matter sheep
so much more cheaply than America
and the answer too is very simple.
First the advantage lies in the climate.
Here you have a climate where the
sheep can and do safely spend every
night during the year in the open air
and without covering. Then the pas-
turage is unlimited and virtually free.
The cost of labor is cheaper than with
us and station living is cheaper and all
these things combine to cheapen the
animal. You can purchase at a retail
butcher's here in Melbourne prime
lamb and mutton nt from fire to six
cents per pound." N. Tribune.

There are some drawbacks to being a
monarch nnd the chief is the fear of as-
sassination. The queen of England and
her family have nothing to fear but
on the continent of Europe it is known
that no ruler is safe from attack. Many
of them wear armor under their ordi-
nary clothing and all of them go tinned
The czar of Bussia and the emperor of
Germany carry loaded pistols as do also
the sultan of Turkey and the king of
Greece. The shah of Persia carries a
long jeweled dagger in his linndsome
robes and when strangers are around
his hand is rarely off it. The emperor
of China has concealed In his robes no
less than three knives. It has been sug-
gested that these august personages
might save themselves much apprehen-
sion by granting their subjects more
privileges but this they deny and in
proof point to the assassinations in
this country nnd France where the
people rule and yet anarchism prevails.
