She was dressed for the dance. and she thought she looked particularly well. it is when a woman thinks she looks particularly well that sheexpects an immediate and favorable reply to her requests. Besides, there is nothing like asking for a thing when one hap- pens to think of it. So she spoke up promptly. “By the way, Tom." she said, don't forget to leave me some money tomor- row." . “What for?" be asked. Husbands have a way of being so curious in these matters. "Oh. I have some shopping to do. i need a number of things." "What, for instance.’ “0b, a lot of tribes—some collars for one thing.” He looked at her sharply. For the moment she had forgotten that he was somewhat prejudiced against decollete gowns and that they had numerous ar- guments on the subject, “For that gown?" he asked. "Now. why do you ask such a fool- ish Question as that?" she demanded. “Because." he replied pointedly. "if it’s for that gown you could use a belt lnstead."—Brooklyn Eagle. in Just the extent in which we de~ velop our water powers will we be in- dependent of the coal supply. By this means we can perform all our, mechan— ical work. light and heat our buildings and replace to a large extent the fuel in our many forms of furnace. All the heat required for these could be sup- plied electrlcally. though at present this isnot an economical method of using electrical power, simply because the demand for this power for other purposes makes it more expensive when used in this way. than coal. The conversion of the chemical potential energy of coal into heat in a furnace Is a very eiflcient process. it is when we convert this energy into another form by an application of the second law of thermo-dynamlcs that the transforma- tion process becomes inefficient. _ The proper use of‘our coal supplies would therefore be to preserve them entirely for heating and reducing ag- ents in chemical processes, using wat- er power for‘ all other purposes.

Within the church, temporary rail- lugs had been erected to keep the peo- ple in a straight line leading directly to the bier; this was the center to which all eyes turned. The silent form lay on a catataloue ten feet high so that all could see it. The body was slightly inclined. with the head raised and facing the passing throng. The 'visage had a chalky whiteness and ap- peared to be unuaturaily unrivaled. it was robed in the foil treatments, as the Roman public knew the l’ontiff in life. Around the bier burned thirteen high candles, while on each side stood the ~noble guards, motionless. Further back were kneeling priests, and aco- lytes softly intoning veneratious. The crowd pushed against the iron trellis which separated the chapel from the main portion of the church. but, those who expected to kiss the slipperod feet were disappointed. as the officials had adopted prec...uionary measures so that the lower ext .. .coa of the body were half hidden back of the iron grating. All ranks and stations of life were represented in the faces which were pressed against the trellis. Many were working people; there also were groups of convent girls under the care of nuns and of school boys. headed by priests. Crowds continued to pass bo- l'ore the bier throughout the morning. At 9:30 a. m., a solemn pontiticul requiem mass was celebrated in St. Peter's for the repose. of the soul of Leo Xlil. The crowd was kept con— stantly moving within the wooden bar- riers. Several thousand people were present. although in so vast a church. capable of containing 70.000 people. they appeared to be a mere handful. especially as they were all standing. Cardinal Oroglin fer-is worn out, ow. ing to his unaccustomed exertions. His life as a cardinal was one of uninter- rupted serenity, and he now bears practically the entire burden of the Church, and also the‘ minute details of the prcparatlons for the obscquies and the conclave. Notwithstanding this he opened this morning's planting of the congregation of Cardinals: The number of those present today was augmented by the presume of two new cardlanls. Cardinal Domenico Svampa, archbishop of Bologna. and Cardinal Giulio Boschl. archbishop of Ferraro. The former was ospmially warmly welcomed by his colleagues, as being one of the most prominent mem- bers of the Sacred College, and because he is mentioned among those likely to succeed Pope Leo. it is being remark~ ed that Cardinal Oreglla's responsibil- ities have softened his austerity and that he is di ecting affairs with firm- pass. but wi hout harshness. showing the Cardinals every consideration. and giving constant proof of equauimity. During the hot hours of the day the crowd at St. Peter's decreased. and lit- tle difficulty was experienced in view- ing the body. ' An extraordinary significant element was introduced late in the morning by ltallan soldiers entering the church. for the maintenance of order. in full uniform. wearing their caps and side arms. They lined the aisles of the basilica and stood two deep in front of the body itself until the whole chlirch assumed an aspect almost more military than religious. The event. which was unprecedented, created widespread comment. The presence of the soldiers was generally interpreted to mesh another step to— wsrds a rapprochement between the Church and State. as heretofore the Vatican has always maintained that it had a sufficient force of soldiers to in- sure order in its own territory and the inference is drawn that the Vatican and the Government have come to such an agreement that ltalian troops'may dur- ing the lifetime of the next pope, be employed in and about St. Peter‘s to preserve order during great ceremon- es. Meeting of Cardinals. At this morning’s meeting of the Con. gregation of Cardinals a committee. consisting of Cardinals Casalli Macchi and Della Volpe, was appointed to so» pervise all the arrangements in con- nection with the co‘nclave. Two doctors. Laponni and Palagallo. a surgeon. Prof. Cagiati, and a drug-‘ gist were appointed to attend the Car- dinals while,.they are shut on. Finally the Cardinals appointed a committee to receive the case contain- ing the papal treasure from the Con- gregation of Briefs, whose work is sus- pended until a new pope is elected and to receive the papal scale from Aposto~ lic chancellory. LONDON. July 23.—The first men- tion in the House of Commons of the Pope's death came this afternoon when Mr. Redmond (Irish Nationalist) asked if the feeling on the Victoria Tower. Westminster. and those on the public buildings would be half masted out of respect to the late Pope. Victor Cavendish. the Treasurer of the Household, replying for the Govern- ment. said there'was no precedent. but the question of ordering the half-mast- ing of the flags on public buildings was now under consideration. “ it used to panic all thinking people why ponds and rivers do not freeze be- ads on at wa- to drop to (0 it can freeze;- 1W" V water underneath.» The thicker it gets m YEARS AGO TODAY. ther more. y does it aet"aa~a ~g , Emerson hasn'tlaaud a'csnt. treatment. and drafts why. even e . .. fndtaas; hadtessthana hundred mammals-reasons ‘ -- ~~, - . fewiesttathicknsss.
