A Chinese Baby Show.

A Chinese baby show was one of the
attractions at the mining fair at San
Francisco. “Two hundred babies of
Oriental parentage were displayed, and
the sight was unique on this occasion.
The little boys had their heads shaven,
and the girls had their hair stiffened
and decked 'with fringes of beads and
paper flowers. . The complete gravity
and silence of this array of Celestial
infants added to the queerness of the

show.

“I am sorry to disturb you, but the
tide is coming up rapidly, and you
have only just time to get round tlh.’
point.” .

Mabel Rorke was._.so engrossed in her
sketch she had forgotten everything
else. There certainly had been :I
young man hovering about f01 the last
half hour, but she had a soul aboy 1‘
young men, and 13111er noticed him.

“I am very much obliged to you. I
will move in a few minutes.”

“Excuse me, you must come imme-
diately,” and he snatched up her point-
box. “Run, run,” he said. “What a
fool I have been to leave it so long.”

It was terrible wOrk running
through the heavy sand, hearts pump-
ing like steam-engines with fear, and
when at last knee-deep in water they
turned the point the strong-minded
young woman was disgracefully near
fainting.

 

“You can rest now,” he said kindly;~

“We are safe.”

“I shall be all right in a minute,”
she panted.

“No hurry, I will be packing the
easel and things.”

“You are an artist, I see,” she said
as she saw how neatly he packed up.
“I thought you looked like one; don’t
be too severe on my poor daub.”

“I am not an artist,” he said, color-
ing slightly, “and it is not a poor little
daub. I ventured to admire it from a
distance when I ought to:3 have been
watching the tide.”

“It is very kind of you to say so.
Shall we go on now?”

“If you feel able. Let me carry
your things; it is a rough walk. If
you will take my hand I can help you
over the stones.”

“No thank you—there I go again.
How abominable slippery the rocks
are.”

“You must take my hand, ” and she
was not sorry to cling tight.

“What a mess I am in; look at my
poor frock.”

“Your frock will be all right when
it is dry; it is good, substantial stuflf. ”
“Men don’ t understand those things.’

“I assure ybu—

“Never mind—I don’t care. ‘I‘her'es
our cottage; I had better hurry. I hope
you will call and see us,’ as she
stopped to say good- -.bye Then, with
a slightly trembling voice, “I don’t
forget what I have to thank you for.
I shall never forget it. Good-bye.”

“Do you know" that man you were
bidding such an aflectionate farewell
to?” said Mary Moore, the “bachelor”
friend she was touring with.

“Know him, in the vulgar conven-
tional sense I dont, but know him for
a gentleman and a brave man who has
saved my life.”

“You needn’t go into such heroics.”

All the same Mary Moore was more
interested in the story than she would
condescend to confess.

ford street on a fine day in October.
There are some rcallyllovely sunsets
to be seen from Marshall and Snel-

grove’s. ' Nevertheless, “How I wish
I was back at Tregurrian,.” thought
Mabel.

“That velvet is lovely, I will do up
my old hat, the one I wore at Tre-
guu‘ian, I am fond of that hat,” and
she went into the shop.

She was conducted to a counter-
“Here, Walker, are you serving?”

“No, sir.”

A tall fair man came forward. Ma-
bel looked at him, stared hard. and
couldn’t believe her eyes; and be, poor
fellow, turned pale. He, too, had had
his dreams. But he had nothing to re-
proach himself with, he had taken no
advantage ’whatever, not even called
when invited. He was brave then, he
was more brave now.

.“What can I do for you, madam?"

“Some velvet, please, something
cheap—the very commonest you have
is good enough.”

But she worried over it, and was
hard to please somehow.

With a cool “good-morning” she
went.

what is the matter with

“Nothing, nothing is the matter, I
am all right, only I am the most vile,
ungrateful wretch that ever lived. I
have behaved infumously, disgraceful-
ly; I wish to goodness I had never
been bd.n;1 wish we lived on a desert
island.”

“Do tell me what is the matter?”

“I’ve seen him again. I’ve seen him
again, and I tell you I have behaved
like a cad. Yes,” she went on hys-
terically, “he’s in a shop, he served
me, called me ‘madam,’ and'his name
is Walker.” .

“Good heavensi you don’t say so:
how awfully annoying. You took his

sarrn, too, didn’t you Mabel?”

Bernhardt Says She Was Born To Be a
Pain-ter and Nothing Else.

. It seems to be given to few mortals
to succeed in the line of life which
they most love. bven I'he greatest act-
ress of her‘ time, Bernhardt, named of
the public the divine, says: ‘I have

The real genius is the one who
strong to conquer environment, and so,
because the little, thin, red haired girl
made up her young mind to do the
best she could with-a profession not
wholly congenial, Mme. Bernhardt is
such a Camille, a Theodora, Fedora,
Cleopatra, Adrienne, Izeyl, Donna Sol,
Marie d-e Neuberg and Lorenzeccio as
the world never saw before. The story
of Bernhardt is familiar—how she
trembled before the tribunal of the

violent outbursts of temper, her brus-

have been the talk of the civilized
I world. She is upward of 50 and a
grandmother, but age has not even
lined her face. It has been said that
great as Bernhardt is, she has only
two notes—a feline caressingness,
which may pass for: love, and a tiger-
is’h passion, which does duty for hu-
tred or revenge. For all' that, no one
disputes her place as the first of liv-
ing actresses. Millions of dollars she
has earned, yet she has not grown
rich, and probably all she owns in the
world is a summer home on the rock-
bound coast of her beloved Brittany.

SHE WROTE THE PRESIDENT.

Spanish Men, To Come Home.

Marguerite, when she learned that
her father was at Camp Wikoff and

the knowledge of any member of her

The letter reads.

Guests had arrived unexpectedly at
the country parsonage on Sunday
morning. The weekly supply of but:-

host dispatched old Joe; the colmed

daily always boasted a surplus. The
parson proceeded to the church with
his well-prepared sermon on some of

old Joe, returning empty- Hhanded c0‘ ~‘

hear his master preach; Just as he
entered, the preacher stretched forth
his hand in a mostimpressive inter-

called out: “And what did Paul say?”
Distinctly sounded through the chur ch

Surveying a tropical oceanin June

between the Bonin Islands and the
Ladrones. Its exact location was in
doubt. .

There was great bustle of prepara-
tion on boardihe stanch little ship as
stores and coal were taken on board

The caterer of the junior officers’
mess had told his messma-tes that a
pleasant surprise aWaited them when
Guam should be reached, for that isl-
and, over ”which our, flag now flies,
was to be our furthest’stopping place,
and there under the “blOod andgold"
of Spain we were to learn the secret
of all his smiles and pleasantries. So
we cheerfully chipped. in. our hard
earned silver dollars for mom stores,
which Uncle Sam, with. unappreciative
acuteness, thinks his._ officers better.
able to .buy than himself. ‘

Shortly afterwe had, sailed canned
peaches came to be plentiful on the
mess table, so that we had them
stewed‘for breakfast, cold for tiffin
and baked into pies for_dinner.p1n fact,
canned peaches soon came to be our
principal diet, until we tore -,ourphair
and. hurled abusive epithetslut our
smiling mate, the caterer. _His appe-
tite for peaches never pulled, and fOr
all the abuse he would only say: -
“Wait until we get to Guam” and nod
as if to say, “When Guam is reached
how remorseful youwill all- be for
this treatment-of me.”

All things come to an. end at last.
and one night the navigator told us we
would see the shores or Guam at sun—
rise in the morning. What ,a joyful
prOSpect it was to know'that we
would touch the green earth once
more and learn the mate’s tantaliZing
secret!

The ocean and sky grew 11eg that
night, and by ten o’clock we were
pitching and tossing in a fearful sea
that threatened to lay us on our beam
ends. The heat was terrific, for it. was
a “black storm,” and there was not a
breath of wind, and one poor‘fireman.
crazed with heat and work, rushed up
from below and threw himself into
the inky waters. Away went the life
boat, and into it a fearless crew, but
we never saw the man again, and it
was with the greatest difiiculty that
we recovered the boat’s crew after two
hours of hard battling with the waves.

We were in the dead centre [of a
whirling storm, and the greatest inten~
sity and danger seemed to lie toward
our haven—Guam. The skipper, one
of the best that ever trod a quarter-
deck, was a wise man, 11nd gave orders
to work about slowly and steam easily
—nway from Guam! All night we la-
bored to save the ship, and when at
dawn the wind burst upon us we were
ready to make a brave struggle for life.
And so we pulled through at last,
many, many miles to the north of
Guam, and when the sea went down
no order came to turn to the south-
ward again.

\Vc pushed along to the north hour
after hour, and as the time went 19y
the mate’s smiling face grew dark and
gloomy, melancholy and sad, and we
pined for the secret we were to have
known in Guam.

Still the canned peaches fed our hun-
gry months at every meal; peaches
morning, noon and night, until our pa-
tience was utterly exhausted, and we
resolved to wreak vengeance on the
mate and wring from him his secret.

We put our heads together one day
at tilfin and refused to eat the peaches,
with one
voice, why we had nothing but peach-
es, and what was the gladsome secret
that we we would have had revealed
had the skipper taken us to Guam.

The mate implored, we insisted, un-1
til at last, with tearful face and voice.
he told us this tale of woe:—“You see,”
he said, in deep, funereal voice, “it
was this way. I had heard that neith-
er the Spaniards nor the natives of
Guam had ever tasted the sweetness
of canned peaches, and so I thought
that if I bought a lot of it and took it
with us we could sell the stuff for its
weight in Spansh pesetas at the island
and make ourselves a little fortune.
So” (and here he shrunk from Dr.
Jekyll to Mr. Hyde) “I put all the mess
money in canned peaches—and We

 

didn’t go to Guam—and,
there is nothing left to eat but canned
peaches.” .

Ominous mutterings and savage
looks thereafter greeted each appear-
ance of the ruined speculator who had

- staked his all (and ours) on peach s

and had lost.

Yokohama and a real dinner were.
many miles away, but both were:
reached at last, and as we pledged
each other in yellow wine at the Union
Club the night of our arrival our
hearts softened. and we had even a
kind thought of the wretched mate
and his most disastrous secret.

A Mother's Mistake. \

A mother makes the most grave mis-

take when she speaks of the faults of
one of her children to another. It is
disloyalty in the first place, and in the
second, the child to whom the com-
plaint is made must naturally think
that in her-absence ‘her own faful-ts are
complained of, to the Others.
resent treatment of this kind, and it
helps to shake the trust and confidence
they have in their mother, and at the
same time damages their own self-re-
spect.

Another mistake is often made in al-

lowing the childrento tell her tales N

of eachother. It is a most oonternpti-
ble habit to allow a. child to get into,

1and immediate steps should be taken

to check the little mischief-maker.

The surest way to, do this is to pun-
ish thetale-bearer every time he car-
ries tales of another’s wrong-doing,
explaining to the child at the time why
you punish him. Mothers often create
this fault themselves by asking the
children questions as to each other’s
doings. It should never be done, it is
not fair, either to the one who tells
or the one of whom the tale is told,~
and is the most sure way to destroy a
child’s sense of honour.

Publicly rebuking a child is anoth-
er great mistake. When he is doing
wrong he may be checked in public, but
the wise mother will reserve the scold-
ing and threat of punishment till she
gets the little sinner in private. There
he will listen to her, and ponder ov'er
what she says; but rebuked in the
presence of others he is apt to be de-
fiant and harden his little heart. It
is by little mistakes of this kind that
mothers lose the love and respect of
their children.

 

Lace Over Blouse.

'An over blouse is a useful article to
be worn over a bodice of silk or light
material which has become slightly
soiled. All trimming must be remov-
ed from the old bodice and it should
be cleaned and pressed to look as fresh
as possible.

The lace bodice is made without IIn-‘
ing, and may be fastened up the back
or on the left shoulder ”and under the
arm. A little fullness is allowed in

the centersof the back at the waist and ”

in the front it is fulled at neck and
waist. The collar is a band of silk,
covered with ‘lace,__with frills at the

 

sides, and the epaulets are of lace,
three and a half inches wide on the
shoulder, gradually groiving narrow at
each end.

 

To Prevent Cakes Sticking.

Take up a small quantity at a time
of good lard, or butter, with a piece of
kitchen paper, and rub a cake tin
(which has been warmed) over evenly
With it, then lightly ddst it with suffi-
cient flour to form a coating over the
butter. Turn the tin up and knock it
against the pastry-board to get rid of
the superfluous flour, and then pour in
the cake mixture. If a rich cake is to
be bakedgthe tin should be lined with
buttered paper. Turn the tin up, place
a sheet of white paper over it and
crease it so as to get the size of the
bottom, out this out, and then-cut a
paper band to fitithe sides of the tin,
letting it come an inch or two higher
than the tap. Warm the tin and
grease it, and then grease the paper
and fit it neatly into the tin so that it
is entirely covered. .

 

 

"See to the Straps.
' Mothers should be careful to see to
the straps when sending the baby out.
in his perambulator or mail-cart in
charge of the nurse. Ifthe little one
is too young to sit up properly, the
joltings and joggings will probably
cause him to slip down from the seat,
and get into a most uncomfortable and
cramped position, because the strap
is too loose. When the mother goes
out with her baby herself she is quick
to notice anything which goes wrong,
but the eye of the nurse is not so
watchful, and under the coverlet the
baby’s limbs may be rolling about in
a cruel fashionr which- a little tighten-
ing of the strap would remedy.
