There are twenty-nine bicycle deal-

thousand wheels are ridden—one for

erwoman has bought a wheel, on

The Japanese workman's tools are
very primitive affairs. The saw, for
instance, is simply a piece of steel
about eighteen inches square, with
roughly notched teeth. This is set in
a handle measuring, as a rule, about
two feet. With this clumsy imple-
ment, however, he does an immense
amount of work, and since the war
he is improving greatly on his tools.
Down Go Bicybles.
There were 372 bicycle factories in
the United States six months ago, and
the number is now reduced to 241, says
the New York Herald. That means
that 131 have failed. These failures
leave $2,500,000 in debts to be ad-
justed and a large stock of wheels to
be sold. Prices are very low and are
likely to have a lower level next spring
than they ‘had last. -

- liANY ROYAL WIDOWS ’
l'HERE ARE FOUR IN THE ENGLISH
ROYAL FAMILY ALONE.
Victoria. is First in Importance. Empress
Eugeuie and the Widows Left sby the
Tragedies of Austria. and hIexico. 'Two
Queens Regent.
It is just a thought astonishing to
reckon the number of royal widows, '
regnant or uncrowned, now more or
less in public view. First, of course,
comes Her Majesty Victoria, Empress
of India; Queen of England, Scotland,
and Ireland. Next to her one must
:ank her eldest child, Victoria, Empress
Dowager of Prussia, more commonly
known as Empress Frederick. Then,
in the same family circle, there arethe
Duchess of Albany, born Princess of
Waldeck-Pyrmont, and widow of the
English Queen’s youngest son, and the
lately bereaved Princess of Battenberg,
who is to be the Duchess of Kent in
her own right.
Upon the Continent there are a pair
of widowed queens regent—Christine of
Spain and Emma of Holland. Both
have won golden opinions from those
they govern, no less than from impar-
tial onlookers. Queen Emma is, by the
way, sister to the Duchess of Albany,
who is I said, to . have been the first
Choice of the. gay old reprobate, King
William of Holland. She refused him,
but her sister threw herself into the
breach, inspired doubtless by the knowl-
edge that reigning sovereigns, even
though somewhat battered and worse
for wear, were not likely to come often
a-wooing in starveling if princely house
holds. So they were married, and there
is a little Queen of Holland to cheat the
anticipations of the house of Cmnber-
land.
But none of the queens or empresses
can put out of court, Dagmar, some-
time of Denmark, now the widowed
Czarina, Marie Feodorowna. It must
have gone hard with her, in spite of- the
splendors the change implied-to give
over her Spanish name, which .means
“daydawn,” for an appellation so cum-
brous. Feodorowna means, by the way,
“daughter of Theodore,” as does Paul-
ovna. “daughter of Paul.” The termi-
nation “ovna.” or “owns." has in all
cases that significance in Russian
names, just as the suffix “vitch” means
always “son of”; thus Alexandrovitch
is “the son of Alexander.”
Austrian royalty has two widows out-
right, between whom it is hard to say
which has the more tragic story. All
the world still remembers the tragedy
of Meyerling—how the Crown Prince
Rudolph shot himself, and the beautiful
Marie Vectsera, leaving his wife, Ste-
phanie of Belgium, by no means dis-
consolate, as the pair had been on the
point. of judicial separation. Still the
shock and shadow of ‘it‘all for a time
overwhelmed her. But she has no con-
tinuing sorrow such as has driven to
madness Carlotta, once Empress of
Mexico, who missed seeing her husband,
Maximilian, shot only because she had
gone to Europe asking for help for him,
where no help was. Yet it: is a ques-
tion if, in spite of all, she is not less
unhappy than her sister, the Empress
Elizabeth of Austria, who has been for
long years widowed in all but name.
Besides Empress Eugenie, widowed.
childless, a widowed shadow of her
beautiful self, France has a Duchess of
Orleans, whom the Legitimists rank as
Queen Dowager—not to mention the
wife of her murdered President, Car-
not. And there is more than a Gallic
trace in the youngest of royal widows.
the Bonaparte Princess, who married
her uncle, the Duke D'Aost-a, and since
his death has set the Italian court wild

STRICTLY ’PROFESSIONAL
A Doctor \Vho Never Mlxae Social Talk
\Vith His Duties u a Physician.
" “In my experience,” said a well known
doctor “I have met with many curious
examples of distorted ideas of what pro-
fessional etiquette should be, but the
most marked case of any is to be found
in a Philadelphia doctor of high stand-
mg. .
“He possesses considerable skill, and
this, along with many mannerisms and
affections, with a startling nicety of
dress always in the latest fashion, has
made this physician the pet of the world
of fashion, who are willing to pay ex-
orbitant prices for indulging in a social
fad. They all like him because he is so
different. '
“The doctor is a great atickler on the
ethics of medical practice, and considers
his methods the only proper ones for a
physician to follow. He refrains when
visiting a patient from saying anything
to any person in the house, aside from
asking for information concerning the
case in hand, but a most polite ‘GoOd-
day’ when arriving and leaving. He be
'lieves that the doctor should be apart
from the man; so, in a. well defined man-
ner, he conducts a dual life—Dr. Blank
as the physician and Dr. Blank as the
locial man.
“You can imagine how this cool pro-
fessional manner seems in the homes of
his friends, yet no matter how closely
he may be connected when called in pro-
fessionally he always maintains his at-
titude. ’ ’ _
“I know of one case in which he was
called in by a college chum to attend his
wife. The two had been the warmest
sort of friends in college, having roomed
together and graduated in the same
class. But, as such things go in this
world, they had not seen much of each
other in late years, their business keep-
ing them apart and kind fortune having
favored the man’s home with health, so
there was novneed for a physician. . But:
he called his friend in when he needed
him. At the door he met him with a
cordial greeting and a hearty handshake,
only to have a cold ‘Good morning’ and
an indifferent grasp of the hand [in re- .
turn.
“The man, thinking he must have
some cause for his apparently cool, in-
different manner, said no more but con-
ducted him to his wife’s room, where he
answered all the questions put'to him by
the physician. As he was going down
stairshe stopped in the library, and tak-
ing upa decanter, sci l:
“ "Allow me to give you a glass of
sherry, doctor?
“This the doctor refused, and proceed-
ed omhis way down stairs, and with a
‘good'-day’ went out. '
‘_‘The gentleman was nonplussed by
his strange action. The friend of his
college days so changed! His medita-
tions was interrupted by the ringing of
the bell, and on going to the head of the
stairs .ound it was the doctor returned.
But it was not the doctor; it was the
man. -
“The returned doctor did not wait for
his friend to come down and greet him‘
but rushed upstairs, and taking his hand
was most cordial. This puzzled the
gentleman more than ever, and he began
to think his friend had really gone in-
sane. ,But his old college chum dragged
him into the library, 'where, without
waiting for an invitation from his host,
he took up the decanter and poured out
two glasses of wine- Then, selecting an
easy chair, he sat down with the re-
mark: '
“ ‘Well, John, this is like the good old
days gone by.’
"Then he plied all sorts of questions
to the astonished man, who was so
amazed that'everything seemed jumbled
to him. Finally he recovered- himself
to ask him the meaning of his actions
upon his first visit. The doctor explain-
ed how rigidly he adhered to a line of.
ethics in medical practice, and how he
never presumed that a professional call
wasintended to be a social visit.
“ ‘NOW,’ he went on, I ‘finished my
professional call, went outside and wait-
ed awhile; then I made my social call,
for I was anxious to see and talk to
you, John. I never allow any of my pa-
tients to say I overstepped the line of
professionalism even one iota.
f‘My life as a doctor and my life as a
man are two different things altogether,
and I keep them apart from each other,
so that they are perfect strangers. It:
may seem strange, but it is an idea I
have.’ ”
