, 'Window Curtain Sales Decreasing.
A clerk in one of the New York dry
goods stores says that the demand for
rich curtains for windows has fallen off
of late because so many wealthy fam-
ilies have gone in for the craze of having
coats-of-arms and other heraldic devices
worked in on the hangings of their win-
dows. Some two or three swell shops
on Fifth avenue introduced the hobby,
and have done a fairly large business.
These particular firms supply draperies
different from those in stock in most of
the dry goods and upholsterers’ places,
and the decrease in sales in the latter
stores is noticeable.—San Francisco Ar-
gonaut.

Practical Work That the Order Is Doing
in the Poor Districts of New York.
The gracious service of the great Or- 1
der of King’s Daughters has become so
important in purpose and diversified in
interest that it has of necessity been or- ,
ganized, systematized and classified un-
der various committees, each devoted to
the alleviation of some particular form
of distress. No branch of its beneficence
is more practical in aim and devoted in
ministration than that which has its (
headquarters in the Mariners’ temple, at .
No. 1 Henry street, and is bending its en-
ergies to the relief of all forms of suffer- i
ing in tenement houses.
The tenement house committee was
organized last spring with Mrs. James
F. Ruggles as their president, and the
little band of women wearing the silver
cross and purple ribbon went about
among the poor of the Fourth ward al-
leys and east y de tenements simply dis-
tributing flowers where flowers were
rarely seen, and thus gaining admittance
to the homes of the poor. When the
hot days of July came the King’s Daugh-
ters had become friends of the families,
and found more important work to do
than the scattering of blossoms and kind
words among them. Sickness, hunger
and death, with all their attending dis-
tresses, were among the people, and the
committee hastily surveyed the field and
evolved their system of relief, working
always in co-operation with the charity
organization to avoid imposters.
Every summer the board of health
sends into the tenement district a corps
of fifty doctors to attend the sick poor
gratuitously during the months of July
and August. In previous years the doc-
tors have found their work almost use-
less, owing to the lack of proper food,
proper nursing and comfortable sur-
roundings on the part of patients. Last
year each physician carried with him a
bundle of postal cards stamped with a
purple cross and addressed to the head-
quarters of the King’s Daughters’ mis-
sion. Each case of distress, with its pe-
culiar needs, was described upon a card,
and at the close of the day’s work was
forwarded to the address given. The
doctor also left written directions at the
house of each patient as to the treatment
and diet, directions which only a trained
nurse could comprehend and carry out.
But there was one trained nurse at
first, and afterward there were two who
followed after the doctor to care for the
sick and save the dying. The nurses
1 were King’s Daughters, too, and because
of the silver cross they wore gave their
services to the society for the small
I amount which it actually cost them for
board all through the heated term, when
they might have been earning $20 or $25
a week at much easier work. They
made from sixty to seventy visits a week
from house to house. If they found a
patient destitute, as they frequently did,
without even sheets upon the bed, they
hurried back to the mission and pro-
cured them where the circles of King’s
Daughters had prepared them. If they
needed the nourishing food required by
the sick, that, too, was found at the mis-
sion provided by the diet kitchens and
the King’s Daughters.
Medicine or necessities of immediate
need they were authorized to procure at
the nearest shop at the expense, always,
of the King’s Daughters. The distress
that confronted the committee was from
the first heartrending, the perplexities
overwhelming. The order to the nurses
was always to supply immediate need;
later the case was investigated, and if
deserving the kindly help was extended
until it was no longer required.
Like many great projects, this has but
a small beginning. Three women at
first, afterward seven, united in a circle
of King’s Daughters, with this purpose
in view. The circle has increased to
seventy members, with Mrs. E. T. Gil-
lespie as president. The first $1,000 to-
ward the building of the house has been
secured, and work is constantly going on
toward raising the desired amount.
A coal club has been established by
one of the members, who buys coal in
quantities and gives the people orders by
which small amounts may be delivered
at the same price. Two of the members
buy tea in large packages, and kindly
spend the time to weigh it out themselves
to sell in small amounts. Rooms have
been rented also and sublet to needy and
deserving people, and kindly help is
given wherever it is possible, both in the
line of personal ministration and prac-
tical charity.—New York Sun.
Easily Satisfied.
“Sir,” said a lean and hungry looking
person who had by some means passed
all the obstacles to admission to the
office of the manager of one of the great
press associations, “I wish to present you
with a confidence.”
The manager looked at him curiously.
“I have the most gigantic scheme,”
went on the visitor, “that you”---
“Never mind,” said the manager,
“don’t bother me.”
“But, sir,” persisted the stranger, “you
mistake me seriously. This is some-
thing that will make your fortune and
mine.”
“I am already rich beyond the dream
of avarice,” replied the manager, think-
ing of his debts.
“H-m!” sighed the visitor. Tie bright-
ened up presently and said, “Well, then,
may I be permitted to make a sugges-
tion?”
“Yes,” said the manager.
“I would suggest,” said the old tramp,
“that you lend me ten cents,” arid the
manager did.—New York Times.
Virgil and the “Aineid.”
A correspondent asks, Is the story that
Virgil on his deathbed attempted to
burn the “yEneid” a myth, or is it a
fact?
The story has been regarded as truth.
The “zKneid” was not his- favorite poem,
although it is the one which constitutes
his claim to the remembrance of pos-
terity. He liked tho “Georgica” best.
It is said that the “JEneid” cost him
eleven years of labor, and that • he in-
tended to devote three years more to
polishing it and bringing it nearer to his
ideal of what an epic poem ought to be.
Before he could give much time to the
latter task, however, he died, and in his
last moments he tried to secure the book
and destroy it. It was kept out of his
reach, though, and subsequently given to
the world as it was originally written.—
St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Call for a Half Cent.
The half cent has become a necessity
in American trade, and the American
Newsdealers’ association will petition
congress to establish a half cent coinage.
On one cent papers the dealer's profit is
only half a cent, and in many instances
the half cent is lost because there is no
coin of this value. An appreciable loss
arises from this source in the course of
a year. It is a favorite way in marking
retail goods of all kinds to rate them in
such a way that the half cent conies in,
and in every case goes to the dealer.
This odd cent in a large establishment
certainly amounts to several dollars
daily, which the buyers lose and the
seller gains for want of one-half cent
coin. The infinitesimal divisions of in-
dustry and retail supplied long ago made
these small coins a necessity in Europe.
A centime is a fifth of a cent. Switzer-
land has a centime piece, Belgium a two
centime piece: Germany has the pfennig,
equal to one-fourth of a cent. -Age of

Six and Nine Months Ahead.
Work is now being pushed on the
next Christmas numbers of the maga-
zines and periodicals. The poets, wits
and story writers have all done their
part of the work, and the artists are
now engaged on the illustrations. No-
body upsets the conventional order of
things more than the magazine men.
The April magazines are now printed,
the numbers for the early summer
months are being “made up” or ar-
ranged six months ahead of time. The
reason that the Christmas pictures are
being made is that Christmas work, be-
ing very particular and heavy in qual-
ity, practically goes on all the year.—

Their Watches Being Repaired.
Two Doylestown gentlemen wanted
to test the magnets at Swartley’s new
mill a few days ago, and, after trying
the penknives, thought they would see
if the magnets would hold gold and sil-
ver watches. The watches are now laid
up for repairs, and the jewelers have a
job in demagnetizing the high priced
works. It is never too late to learn.—

A Hard Corner.
The age of 30 is a hard corner for a
woman to turn, and 35 is still harder.
She feels that she is fast leaving her
youth behind her. But there is no rea-
son why a woman should be faded and
passe at 35, or even at 45. The chief
cause of the early fading of American
women is found in the fact that rntyiy of
them suffer from some form of female
weakness or disease which robs the face
of its bloom, draws dark circles about
the eyes, brings early wrinkles and sal-
lowness, and stamps the face and figure
with signs of ill health. Dr. Pierce’s
Favorite Prescription ■will cure all these
troubles, will bring back the lost bloom,
and remove the pains and ailments
which make women grow old before
their time. Guaranteed to. give satisfac-
tion in every case, or price ($1.00) re-

J
FASCINATING SPORT.
“The men threw off what little cloth-
ing they wore. Then each seized a plank
and attempted to launch it. This was
easier said than done, and many were
the upsets that ensued as the big rollers
came in, but finally all of them got be-
yond the shore and beyond the point
where the waves broke, and then I saw
where the sport came in. Turning in
shore the men threw themselves upon
the planks, and, watching their opportu-
nity, steered them so that they held,
their position on the crest of the roller
and came in with it. Once under way
the natives skillfully raised themselves to
their feet, and so standing upright came
rushing in. Some w<®9 tossed off. others
were caught in the breaking wave,
while the most skillful and intrepid re-
tained their standing pmtion until they
were literally flung upon the beach.
“I was younger in those days than I
am now, and soon convinced myself that
I should enjoy this sport as well as th®
natives, and, securing a plank, 1, too,
pushed out from the sfctoe. The first
wave that struck em nearly drowned
me, but I dived into next and
plank beat me in about tw-L minutes.
“During that visit I did not attaiil
sufficient skill to enable me tc take ths
ride standing, but on subsequent occa-
sions I became fairly proficient, and
then the sport for a time became a veri-
table craze with me. I interested a
number of Englishmen and Americans
in it, and we really fell into the habit of
getting up wave riding parties. I had
become so skillful that I rarely missed a
wave, and could make my way out with
ease and come riding in with perfect
equipoise. I became so daring that 1
often swam out beyond the rest that 1
might obtain the full force and exhilara-
tion of the ride, and one day when the
sea was particularly . high and rolling
very heavily I met with my adventure.
CHASED BY A MONSTER.
“There were six of us enjoying the
sport, with as many natives. I had a
plank especially made for the purpose,
wide and stout enough to bear my en-
1 tire weight, and by lying upon it I soon
forced my way over the incoming rollers
and floated in the comparatively smooth
1 water beyond. Here I turned my plank
L shoreward and waited for a good roller.
Every third one was, as a rule, large,
and finally a big, green bodied one came
whirling in, shutting out the horizon.
As it came 1 caught it, and as 1 felt the
transferred motion lightly sprang to my
feet and steadied myself on the monster
that extended up and down the shore
and was rushing to its own destruction.
“On I went, shouting gayly to my
companions on the beach. Then I sud-
denly became aware that something was
beside me. I gave a side glance and the
reality almost made me lose my foothold
upon the rushing plank. What I saw
was the sharp dorsal fin of a man eating
shark cutting along through the water
like a knife. The monster was thirteen
or more feet long and was partly turned
up toward me, showing the white, gleam-
ing under surface.
“What passed through my mind in
those few seconds can hardly be imag-
ined. I gave myself up for lost, as I be-
- . lieved the shark would soon rush at the
another member of the same xegiment. pjaAk, when over I would go, an easy
victim. I do not know that I have more
than ordinary nerve, but it flashed
through my mind that possibly the shark
was waiting for me to fall, and would
not make an attack unless I did, and in
some unaccountable way I was enabled
to retain my self possession. Every sec-
ond I was gaining; every second brought
the big wave nearer tho beach. Now it
was on the verge of breaking. Still the
shark maintained its position. Then I
heard the welcome roar above me, and
down it came like an avalanche, scintil-
lating and gleaming, until with one
mighty burst the aquatic monster broke.
For a single second I stood in the gleam-
ing mass, and then was dashed upon the
beach safe and sound.
“The shark did not come in, which
was evidence to me that it had not been
overcome by the rush of the water, but
was simply following me with due re-
gard to its cuisine. I need hardly say
that this was my last experience riding
breakers there. Upon inquiry I learned
that natives had been attacked by sharks
during the sport on several occasions.
When I look back upon it and recall the
sensation of rushing onward high on the
crest of a big wave I almost wish I could
indulge in the sport again, though with-
out the shark accompaniment.”—Phila-
delphia Times.

An English naturalist who has been

pastures estimates that a full grown
whale, driving ahead at full speed, could
break down any breakwater ever built,
and that the sweep of his lower jaw is

engine working at full speed. If you

While Enjoying Plank Riding on the
Waves Near the Shore an Enthusiastic
Visitor Narrowly Escaped a Savage
Shark—Queer Sport Amid Breakers.
“Speaking of adventures,” said my
companion, who had been listening to a
number of stories told in the old boat
house, “I can relate one that at least at
the time seemed exciting enough. I had
been traveling around the world, after
the fashion of Englishmen, and had
stopped at the Samoan islands on my
way up from Australia to run them over
and gain some information regarding
the natives, their ways and customs, and
as a result I became enamored with the
place, climate and people, and remained
there nearly a year.
“During that time I made myself
familiar with nearly all the islands of
the group, and one in particular had a
singular fascination to me. Once on the
hill tops 1 looked down upon a long
beach, upon which beat the finest surf I
have ever seen. The waves were simply
great rollers, which came in a slow,
dignified fashion that was most impress-
ive. The men, who had all been there
before, ran down the shore, where I soon
saw them hauling some planks from the
bush, which I learned they had con-
cealed on a former occasion. In short,
the waves were used by them to enjoy
one of the most exciting sports imagin-
able, and I was very quickly initiated
into it.

bonnet does not weigh two
Their hats are open, and there
is more or less ventilation under and
through them, whereas men’s hats are
heavy boxes that inclose and weigh
down and stifle the hair.”
“I never thought of that.”
“Well, that amounts to nothing,” said
the barber. “It sounds important, but
whatever we say in favor of women’s
hats is offset by the fact that they wear
them twice as many hours at a time as
men wear theirs. Women often put a
hat on in the morning and don’t remove
it till dinner; they wear their bonnets in
church, at the theatre, during their calls,
everywhere and all the time. The im-
portant difference between the sexes is,
after all. that boy® and men have their
hair cut and -giriS and women don’t. A
little girl’s hair is nursed after she passes
early childhood.
“Some fathers who are obliged to
keep their families in the hot city insist
that their babies’ hair shall be cut, and
the mothers yield in the cases of the
girls with great reluctance, but after
the little girls are 4 or 5 years old the
women fight to have their hair uncut
thenceforward, and such is the rule with
TC-ost girls. After thinking it all over
twenty years I ®eol ©f the opinion that
imreutting produces baldness.
“See, continued the barber,
'(wonderful heads of hair the Indians
have. How thick it is. How splendid
are the braids they wear down their
backs. It is so with all savages—all
have plenty of hair, and none ever cut
it. The white men who live' in wild
countries or on our border exemplify the
same thing. They wear their hair
down on their shoulders, and it is thick
and luxuriant, but it has not been cut
in all the time they have lived the life of
the rude people around them. My calm
decision is that if you want to escape
baldness you must keep the scissors
away from your head. No medicine
will remedy baldness. To find a physic
that will do so is the surest road to a
giant fortune, and men have been ex-
perimenting for more than a century
without finding a remedy.”—New York
Sun.
"Wliat Say the Barbers AVho Tallc of the
Care of the Hair on Men’s Heads.
“You’d better have your hair trimmed,
sir.”
So said the barber in the shop at
Church and Cortlandt streets.
“Why?” he was asked. “I had it cut
only a week ago.”
“Yes, but I see it is very thin on top,”
said the barber, “and I think that it
should be cut very frequently in order
to save it.”
On the next afternoon the barber in
the Park Avenue hotel was making his
last excursion with a razor over the
same man’s face.
“You are getting bald,” said he.
“Now, what a gigantic mystery it is—
this subject of the hair. I am bald; you
are getting bald. Neither of us would
try to save a thousand dollars if that
would have kept us a full head of hair,
but neither money nor skill nor wisdom
will save any man a single hair of his
head. For my part, the only knowledge
I have, after being in the barber busi-
ness twenty years, is purely negative.
I think that if you don’t have your hair
cut it will not fall out.”
“What? Never have it cut?”
“Stop a minute. Did you ever see a
bald headed woman? You never did.
Well, such a thing as a bald headed
woman exists, but they are very rare.
Now, why are women practically never
bald, and why are men growing bald in
greater numbers every year? You na-
turally reply—or you would if you had
thought about it as much as I—that the
reason lies in the hats women wear.
Their hats amount to nothing. The

Millionaires in Great Britain.
Thirty-one persons who died last year
left above £250,000 of personalty'. No
doubt in most of these cases the testa-
tors were not born with this amount.
If, therefore, we multiply thirty-one by
twenty we shall have (on a somewhat
high estimate) the number of persons
now living in Great Britain who have
more than £250,000. If we add to these
620 another 620 for those whose realty
and personalty together exceed £250,000,
we arrive at the fact that there are not
above 1,240 persons in the United King-
dom who have more than this sum. I
was dining with some people last week,
several of whom might have been able
to give a correct answer to the query,
how many persons worth more than
£250,000 were now living in Great Brit-
ain. Their guesses vzere hopelessly
wrong, ranging between 10,000 and 25,-
000. And yet, as a matter of fact, there
are probably fewer than my estimate,
for I ought, I suspect, to multiply by
a lower figure than twenty.—London
