COMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG
THE. WOMEN. BY ONE
or THEM.
Will nobc d y sympathize with the
man who wrote to the papers complain-
ing of the modern housewife’s love for
"turning out?” This bold malcontent
dared to aver that women, as a sex, is
over-devoted to the-virtue that ranks
next to godliness.
Ican imagine the little storm in a L
,teacup which brought forth that letter.
FAnd I can imagine the unholy glee
with which hundreds of other men read
it next m01 ning at breakfast, and then
laid down the paper exclaiming; .
"That’s just it! Exactly what I’ve al-j
ways said!” ' No doubt it is trying to‘
come home and find your belongings
scattered, your papers mixed up, and.
your cloths “put tidy’? in a manner.
'which makes the discovery of them a
labor, attended by much expenditure
of energy and expletives.
It is difficult to discuss 'this im-
partiality. Suppose a jury of maids
and bachelors were to adjudicate the
question, as is done with regard to the
award of the Dunmow Flitch. I
wonder what their verdict would be?
On the one hand, it might be urged
that man is undoubtedly “faddy”about
his propertygfurther, that were he ask-
ed for leave, he would never allow his
rooms to be “tidied” at, all.
The male advocates would urge that.
' woman sometimes makes a fit of'ncrvcs’
an excuse for a domestic upheaval.
Rapid movement, and the sense till!-
she is “making things hum,’I’ is a relief
to her, and lets off her irritation, even
as a locomotive lets elf steam.
Personally, I don't think ‘ 1c lllh”
up" 'should be left to the disc. ezion of
the lady. of the house, and sprung upon
the hapless man at a moments‘s notice.
It should be marked in the calendar
as a day of fasting and mortification, to
be foreseen and prepared for by labori-
ously acquired fortitude. One can bear
any misfortune, so people say, if only
one is allowed time to face it. ‘

EFFECT OF CHURCH SPIRES.
Religion Not the Prevailing Element in
- Sapphira.
Look down from the rocky crest of
Mount Sapphira and ask yourself Why
the city looksso singularly flat and
thickset. ‘Is it because there are'no
trees, or, at any rate, ‘none that rise
above the second story window sills?
Perhaps. Or is it because the houses
are so much of a Size? Possibly. But
there is a better explanation than
either. It is lbecauSe there are no
church spires. Churches there are,
but you must have sharp eyes to find
them. They are little; they are insig-
nificant; they are monuments of a dis:
graced and unpopular cause. Says
Broucho Billy, “Look at them, darned,
contemptible churches, all-same
shacks! I could buy out any three of
’eml” Out of 10,000 people only 1,500
Protestant churchgoers! Sapphire is
111 peculiar town, too, for in Sapphira
there are classes and no masses, unless
you call the Chinese merchants, me-
chanics and laundrymen masses. It
is not the old problem of reaching the
masses. It is the entirely new prob-
llem of reaches the classes. Cultured,
flaw-abiding, progressive, Sapphira
lh'as little toleration for religion The
ltlny congregations in the tiny churches
are made up mainly of women; a Sap-
:phira church is a ”lady chapel.” A
Montana business man objects to
Walking on the same side of the street
with a church. There is still more
Iltruth than fiction in the old saying
that west of Bismarck there is no
Sunday, and west of Miles .City no
IIGod.”—A.Itl.'1nrtic Monthly.

Where the Marriage Knot Is 'l‘.ied
In India, only, of all the countries in
.thc world, is the much-talked- of mar—
riage knot ever actually tied. Among
the Brahmins marriage is a matter of
purchase, and the would— be bride-
groom is liable almost till the last mo-
ment to be ousted by a higher bidder;
but, if no suitor appears willing to
give the father a more valuable pres-
ent, he leads his daughter to the first
{to offer himself, saying:—
“I have no longer anything to do
lwlth you; I give you up to the power
pf another ”
, Then the bridegroom laces the tall,
‘rthe insignia of marriage, around her
neck, and secures it with a knot. The
{tall consists of a piece of ribbon with
,a, gold bead suspended upon it. The
Iiknot it is that legally binds the wife
to her husband and makes the mar-
riage indissoluble, for Brahmins do not
recognize divorce.

THE LOUISIANA TREATY. w“
* It Was Made in Paris Nearly one Hundred
Years Ago
Another famous American treaty,
made in Paris, and of which the cen-
tennial will soon be. at hand, was that
which gave us the territory west of
the Mississippi for something like 60.-
000,000 francs or a little over eleven
million dollars.
The commissioners who brought
about the transaction were Robert R.
Livingston and J amcs Monroe, for the
United States, and Napoleon Bona-
parte and Francis Barbe Wanbois, for
the French. '
For half a century before the pur-
chase Louisiana had been bought and
sold in turn by France and Spain. The
French settled it in 1700. In 1762,
France. finding that if slie tried to
hold Louisiana. it might be seized by
England. transferred it by secret
treaty to Spain. This cession. the
treaty said. was “from the. pure im-
Spain
was sur',piised and the Spanish min-
ister with whom the treaty was made
only accepted Louisiana as a gift upon
the expressed condition that it should.
not he considered until his King im-
proved the acceptance. Thus Louis-
iana and the territory west at the Mis-
sissippi actually went begging as a
gift .133 years ago. The French peo-
ple who formed the colony objected
to the gift and the transfer to Spain
did not take place until 1769. The
Spanish rule was gradually accepted.
and it continued thirty-five years.
People of this day talk of per caplra
expenses of government. The figures
are preserved to show that it cost the
King of Spain $16. 55 for each of his
Louisiana subjects annually. That
was the expense of maintaining gov-
ernment in Louisiana.
The time came when Bonaparte.
after marching over Italy and driving
the Austrians beyond the Alps. con-
cluded that he wanted the Louisiana
territory In the New World. Spain
was weak. and all that was necessary
was the expression of a wish from the
Little Corsican. Louisiana was sc-
cretly 'eded to France. The treaty
was signcd. but the Spanish govern-
111(th over Louisiana was continued.
This secrecy was made necessary by
the fact that France and England were.
then at war. The King of Spain coded
Louisiana in its entirety. east and west
of the Mississippi. In return he re-
cciV'ed 1‘10111 France the little republic
(if l‘.ii“ll‘l
ll. hen the treaty reached this coun-
i'rV' President Jefferson called Con-
:zr'gss together to ratify it. In doing
so he frankly admitted that the pup.
chase went beyond constitutional au-
thority. and that a constitutional
amendment was necessary to carry out
the purchase. But he told Congress
that the acquisition of an outlet 'to the
Gulf was essential to the national life
ml to the' preservation of peace. In
that way he vindicated the action of
his commissioners. Congress ratified
the treaty, six New England Senators
voting against it.
Why Red Enrages Animals.
"You might just as well show.a red
rag to a bull." How many times is
this expression made use of daily, and
how many of its utterers think for one
instant of its significance, or as to why
the expression should have come to be
in such common vogue!
Why should a bull—or, indeed, any
animal—exhibit feelings of rage or an-
noyance when a mere scrap of scarlet
cloth is flaunted before it? A strange
instinct, indeed, and yet no stranger
than many others, the cause of which
it might be interesting to prove.
To begin, then, with the bull and red
rag. All animals, or at any rate a.
large proportion of them, are strangely
moved by the exhibition of any bright
color, a fact in itself perhaps sufficient
to account partially for the rage of the
bull.
He sees, maybe, a scarlet flag flutter-
ing out to the breeze, flapping con-
spicuously before his vision, and he
wonders. He sees the same thing in
the hands of a ma; his lord and mas-
ter, with whom he has always connect-
ed superior force and power, and at
once his wonderment is translated to
fear, which in turn gives place to
anger.
His annoyance gives way to rage.
That red flaring thing is meant as a
direct challenge to himself. Down
goes his head, and away—if he be wise
———goes the too-daring biped, for Mr.
Bull now means mischief.
Geese and turkeys among birds, and
sheep among our domestic animals, of-
ten exhibit symptoms of fear and rage
when challenged by these means. The
first named have often been known to
fly at children clothed in red garments,
and to peck savagely at them, while
sheep will often become transported
with frenzy at their shepherd suddenly
producing a piece of red eloth.
Closely 'assdéiatedfilth‘this? strangb
instinct comes the excitement caused
by the smell of blood, chiefly to be no-
ticed among horses and cattle of our
domestic animals.
And when we consider that blood is
red, that the smell of it, as well as‘ its
bright color, has always been associ-
ated by the animal with bodily hurt
and discomfort; we can more readily
comprehend why it is that the strange'
instinct should have obtained such firm
hold.
The animal’s eye is attracted in no
less “a degree than his sense of smell.
Blind instinct cries out to him that all
is not as it should be, and'so unreason—
ing as he is, he gives vent to his feel-”l
ings in the only way he knows, either
that of abject fear or of maddening.

TOADS A_s Ho’U’s's'PE'rs.
They Were Emoaolous in Banishing
Roaches and Water Bugs.
The latest and most ingenious way
of getting rid of roaches and water
bugs we’ have heard of is related of a
citizen of Schenectady, whose kitchen
was infested with them.
A servant, hearing that toads were
an antidote, caught three ordinary
hop toads and put them in the kitchen.
Not a roach or water bug, it is stated,
can now be found in the liouse. The
toads have become domesticated, nev-
er wander about the house, and are
so cleanly and inoflensive that there
is no objection to their presence.
Another use for toads is to employ
them for insect destroyers in the gar-
den. They are determined enemies of
all kinds of snails and slugs, ’which it
is well known can in a. single night
destroy a vast quantity of lettuce, car.
rots, asparagus, etc. Toads are also
kept in vineyards. where they devour
during the night millions of insects
that escape the pursuit of nocturnal
birds. and might commit incalculable
havoc onthe buds and young shoots
of the vine. In Paris toads are an
article of merchandise. They are kept
111 tubs and sold at the rate of two
francs a dozen. ——Hampshirc Gazette;
