COMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG
THE WOMEN, BY ONE
OF THEM.
To loaf artistically is an accomplish-
ment; to loaf for all the rest that in
Reeling lies is very much more. Pro-
Sessors of pose and gestures tell us that
while anybody in the world can fall
down stairs, it is only those who know
how to thoroughly relax themselves
that can fall without damage to joints
and nerves and muscles.
Vacation time is imminent. At least
«one-half of the bread-winning women
who take them will take them all too

There is something steadying in

asone sometimes leans upon a. heavy
adverse gala.

ppeparation for going.
Going away is all very well, . unless
one makes of the going .a burdensome
duty. Go if going is easy. The one
essential thing is to reach an estate of
mind and body as shall make one com-
mehend the full sweetness of doing
nothing.‘ ‘

The more routine is broken in upon
the better. Sleeping until midday and
sitting up till all hours are not to be
momended _ upon general principles.
Betas areaction from cast iron busi-
ness punctuality they have both charm
and value;
Indeed, lying at length, whether
mid warm, sunny sands, upon the
scented turf of cropped upland past
ares,0r in one’s oWn familiar every”
night bed, is the finest sort of rest.
Similarly if business exigencies have
liorced one to be for eleven months
mverely tailor-made, while one’s soul
gunned for the frou-frou, of silken
draperies, vacation time should be
riotous in those same fripperies.
There is a sanely sensuous delight in
the sight, the touch of them to one
who has involuntarily forgone such
wear. Often it is not the thing which
links, but the necessity for doing it.
’ Ode truly rests, not through vacuous
(ceasing to do accustomed tasks, but by
sospending rest time as to bring back
whalance the muscles, mental, physical
and‘Spiritual, which are in danger of

ditions. .

Always plan your expenses so as to
have at least 50 per cent. available for
the pleasant contingencies sure to
arise. Even if you stay at home, the

Many times thereis more pleasure in
dueling that you could atford to do a
thing than in actually doing it. With
money in both pockets, there is a
twang of virtuous exhiliration to the
sweetness of doing nothing.
All of us sigh and pine for a great

gissible for us to have them. To fore-
go them of free will adds very lax-gay

A Heavy Fine.
George H. Nordaby, sporting man,
1. who has been in more or less trouble
- with Stratford authorities for several
gears, was convicted yesterday upon
sen counts for selling liquor Without a
license and also, on reputation. Justice
Charles H. Peck imposed fines aggre-
gating 8530 and sentenced Nordaby to
Millays in jail. Nordaby filed notice
a an appeal. Bonds were placed at
111,900.
CURRENT COMMENT.
But yesterday, as it were. calcium
carbide was merely a scientific play-
thing. Now it has enough commer-
cial importance to form a. trust, with
$12,000,000 capital. Thus does science
acquire value nowadays. The scion.
tisls who, like thr- cldel' Agassiz, are
"‘100 busy to make money," are very
few. '

Unless Nicola Tesla is misquoted 01
mistaken, he has discovered a use fox
his oscillator, of which so much has
been said, that will" render all fur-
ther military operations by the Unitec
States unncssary, provided: he will
only sell his discovery to this Govern.
mcnt. By his oscillator he claims tc
be able not only to transmit messsages
without electric wires any distance,
but also to send a spark into the pow-
der magazine of any hostile ship. thus
blowing it up with its own ammu
nition. Such a discovery as this
would not only bring the Spanish wax
to a speedy conclusion, but would lead
to universal and permanent peace.

With the apploach of Spring and the
opening days of nav igation and trans—
portation in Alaska, the interest in the
wonderful gold mines of the Klondike

most prominent financiers of New York;
runs its line .of steamers to Dawson
City via St. Michaels. It actually owns
some of the most valuable placer and
quartz mines in the Klondike. The
attention of our leaders is called to a
tatement of the Company printed in
