no matter; for Ayer's

Porturgal' Popular Queen.
The Queen of Portugal is one of the
most popular of reigning sovereigns;
so that anything like a revolution in.
Portugal is absolutely out of the ques
tion. The recent act of heroism
through which she saved a fisherman
from drowning will not diminish that
popularity. The fisherman was in a
boat which capsized, and was in a very
bad way indeed, when her majesty,
who happened to be near, flung her
self into the water, swam to the res
cue and brought him safe to shore.
Anyone who has ever tried to swim
with his or her elothes on will realize
the pluck of the young queen, and as
it turned out that the fiherman's leg
was broken her act deserves all the
more wonder and admiration.
Champ Cark wname slmeeI.
Champ Clark, the genial congress
man and writer of Missouri, had the
novel distinction of naming himself
and of choosing an unusual name at
that. In his infancy his parents chris
tened him James Beanchamp Olark;
but Clark was a common surname in
his part of the country, and James
even commoner, so, uas he cherished
dreams of future glory, he knocked oi
the James Beau and became Champ
Clark-easy to pronounce and easy to
remember and distinctive in sound. He
was admitted to the bar as Champ,
married as Champ and elected as
Champ. But every little while some
body who remembers him in early uIf
and is careful of the proprieties, re
auaeitates the Beauchamp or James
Beauchamp, and the air turna bhl.

WOMEN SU_ IDES.
Esberet ride Gones Them to Daems Wp
tee the Deed.
"If I should ever be called upan to
furnish indisputable proof of the in
herent pride of woman," said a police
sergeant, "I would point at once to
her invariable rule of dressing up in
her best clothes when she goes out to
commit suicide. In my experience on
the force I have had occasion to han
dle a good many suicides and after
ward investigate their personal affairs,
and in every instance I have found
that the poor unfortunates prepared
themselves for death by donning their
best bib and tucker. The majority
of the printed reports of suicides say
that the clothes of the dead woman
were 'good' or 'well made' or 'elegant.'
If the woman contemplating suicide
owns a silk waist she wears it. Her
broadcloth skirt and silk petticoat nat
urally go with this garment and she
selects her best shoes. I have
looked up the history of many of these
respectably clad suicides and have
found that they owned but one gown
with which they could make a decent
appearance on the street, and that that
one good dress was chosen, without
exception, as the appropriate garb in
which to make the exit from this
world's stage. It makes no difference
what manner of death is chosen, the
costume is carefully selected. Let a
woman sleep her life away under the
influence of drugs or burn her soul out
with acids or sink into the slime of
the river, she clothes herself in her
most becoming garments and seeks
the end with apparent tranquility. Her
instinct of gentility and elegance in
clothes is with her to the last, and
even in the face of death she shrinks
from a public appearance in unbecom
ing raiment."
Human Prey of Wild Animals.
The report of the government of In
dia for 1899 shows that for that year
25.587 human lives fe'l a prey to wild
animals. By far the largest number
24.621-were killed by snakes. Tigers
were responsible for 899 deaths, wolves
for 338, leopards 826 and 1,402 were
killed by elephants, hyenas, Jackals,
and crocodiles together. The deaths
due to serpents .were much more nu
merous than during preceding years,

A RING OF RATS.
An extraordinary nest of rats was re
cently discovered at the bottom of an
old well in Courtalain, a hamlet in
France, the pzculiar feature about the
animals being that seven of them were
joined together by their tails in such a
manner that it was impossible for them
to free themselves. The tips of the tails
were knotted together and formed a
centre from which the bodies radiated.
They have been presented to the mu
seum at Chateaudun. where they are at
tracting much attention. A "ring of
rat-" composed of twenty-seven anm
mals is preserved at Altenburg, and
other specimens have been discovered at
Bonn, Frankfurt. Erfurth and Lindenau
near Leipsic. and two "rings" were
found near Gotha in December, 1822,
one consisting of twenty-eight and the
other of fourteen animals.
HOW THE EYE SEES IN READ
ING.
By close study of familiar things, sur
pri ing facts about them often come to
light. Professor Dodge, of Wesleyan
University, by a number of careful ex
periments, has made a strange discovery.
He declares that to see, the eye m-ust
be motionless.. Now that he has told us
it is.easy to under'tand that this must
be true. You cannot take pictures with
a moving camera, and the eye is only a
perpetual camera with self-renewing
plates. The eye must stop motion while
it takes a picture.
In reading, therefore, the eye does not
move along the lines regularly. It
takes an impression, moves to a new
position, takes another -till view, then
moves again. Thus the words are taken
by groups. Perhaps, following Profes
sor Dodge's lead, some other clever ex
perimenter will now tell us just how
wide the lines of print should be for the
easiest reading. Erery one knows that
very long or very short lines are tiring
so there must he a right length. When
the prcper medium is found, the chan
ces are that we shall learn that the "old
masters" of the printing art had chosen
the best width for their pages.
One writer has argued that lince we
see words and letters it whole groups,
the new method of teaching spelling
by entire words at a time-is the natural
method. But this does not seem to fol
low, since there are other questions to
be considered in deciding which is the
best metho - of teaching children to
spell. The old "spelling match" at the
end of school was not so bad a way!
St. Nicholas.
ORIGIN OF SOME WORDS.
Perhaps some of the girls will be in
terested to hear that the word "mill
inery" comes from the name of the City
of Milan. Italy. It seems that Milan
was a great producer of hats, ribbons
and flowers, so these article; were final
ly called "Milanery," or millinery. Then
the muslin that you know so well-it
owes its name to Mussoul, a fortified
town of Turkey. Lawn is named from
the City of Laon, cambric from Cam
bray, a town ig Flanders, where it was
first made. That dainty gingham gown
takes its name from an English town
Guingamp, where gingham was first
made. Tulle is the name of a French
town, and gauze came first from Gaza in
Palestine. You remember that Samson
carried away the gates of Gaza once
upon a time. There is a town in Eng
land called Worsted. In i3z9 the Eng
lish woollen trade was located there, and
it was there that twisted double thread
of woollen afterward called worsted, first
was made. Tweed was a fabric worn by
fishermen on the River Tweed.
The boys will like to know how the
word "cur" came to be tnesynonymfor
a worthless dog. Years ago in England.
they used to be as fond of fox hunting
as they are now. In order to separate
the common dogs from the stag and
boar hounds that belonged to lords and
gentlemen, they cut the tails off the poor I
mongrels: that is. cur-tailed them. The1
aristocratic dogs were true to the scent,
but the common ones would grow con
fused and draw the hunters away from
it. So a curtailed dog. or curtle dog
became simply a cur.
You would like to hear, too, that the
name of a certain place you often visit,
the pantry, comes from a Latin word
meaning bread-panis is the word. So
the "pantry" is where bread is kept.
From the same root comes "companion,"
and that means "one who cuts bread
with you."
Then there is the word "dunce."
Would you believe that the word 'dunce'
came from the name of a wonderful
scholar, Duns Scotus? When you look
him up you will find he died in 1308. I
You will also he interested to find out
about his learning. The men that ad
rpired and imitated him and followed his
view~s were called Duns men. By and
by this came to be a term of reproach.
and a stupid person, a blockhead, would
be called a Dunsman or "dunce."--Ckhi

AN UNWELCOME VISITOR. -
What was the matter with Dicky?
Miss Letty wondered and puzzled her
brains, she could not understand. He
would not eat his seed nor take his
morning bath, but sat huddled up in one
corner of the cage. a picture of misery.
He had never acted so before. When
Misi~ Letty went away for the summer
she didn't want to take Dicky. because
she was going to travel a good deal.
So he was left at home in care of Mr.
Will. her brother, who often said in
his letters how well and fat Dicky had
grown. Now. since she had got home.
Miss Letty noticed how thin and miser
able the poor bird looked.
She tried to mak- him fat again, coax
ing him'with dainty morsels. She never
saw him eat them, but snm-how the food
disappeared, and yet Dicky remained
thin and wretched. -It was very mys
tCrious. But at last sle found out the
truth.
One evening before the lamps were
lit Miss Letty came quietly up to Dicky's
cage, which hung in the window. He
did not notice her coming and she op
ened her mouth to call to him, when
she saw-what do you think?
Dicky squeezed up in fright against
the bars of his cage in one corner, while
on the other side, gobbling away at poor
Dicky's teed, a great, long-whiskered
rat!
The rat ate as fast as he could, look
ing up now and then to glare at Dicky.
The poor canary was trembling with
fear and clinging with all his might to
the bars.
Miss Letty was not a coward, but she
gave a loud scream at the sight, and
Mr. Rat, as frightened as she, loosed
his hold on the iseed cup and rushed
wildly about the cage, seeking a means
of escape. At last he gave a spring
through the door, which had been open
all the time and darted away.
When Miss Letty recovered from her
scare she marched out and bought a
trap and set it in the kitchen. Then she
carried Dicky into the parlor, where she
felt he would be safer from that wicked
old rat. She knew now who had been
paying visits to Dicky all summer.
That night the old rat and his ,on
were caught in Miss Letty's trap and
later still another one. Dicky had no
more such calls. He soon got over his
fright, forgot all about Mr. Rat and his
friends, ate and bathed regularly, and
was a happy little bird once more.-

THE SHIP'S APPRENTICE.
The young son of one of my English
friends is apprentice boy on a large
merchant vessel, and the other day when
it wal in our harbor I went to visit it.
Bobbie was very glad to see me and tell
me all about his life aboard ship. He
had as companions four other appren
tice dboys, who shared a comfortable cab
in together.
When I first came upon them two of
them. in their bare feet, were "tidying
up the decks." as they said, and the
others were in the cabin dressing to go
on shore for an hour or two. They had
not set foot on land for several month-,
for the vessel had just arrived from
Calcutta, and the boy whom I knew the
best was delighted at the prospect of
visiting a great city.
While we were on shipboard I asked
him a few questions about his life as an
apprentice.
"Of course I'll be delighted to tell
you," he said. "You see, our time is
divided into two watches when we are
at sea. From 8 to 12 p. m. is port
watch, from 12 to 4 starboard watch.
Then from noon to 4 p. m. port watch.
from 4 to 6 p. m. dog watch or star
board and from 6 to 8 p. m. dog watch
for port."
"How can you remember it all?" I
asked.
"Oh, it's easy enough." he answered
with a smile.
"I suppose you have some special
duty for each watch ?"
"Yes. We begin at 6 in the morning.
and after drtssing, wash the decks and
get ready for work. From 8 to 9.15 we
have breakfast, and then we have some
kind of manual work, painting or mend
ing parts of the wood work. Dinner is
from I to 2, and after dinner we take the
wheel or hold the yards round or square
them up or brace them in. Each of us
does something of this kind, and 'at 3.30
we have a chance to tidy up, and at 6
we have tea.'
"Do you get rather tired?"
"Sometimes. You see, we are on deck
part of the night, just like the sailors.
We have four hours above and then -ix
hours below. During the dog watches
we usually sing, and this changes the
watches about."
From what Bobbie told me I could
see that the ship's apprentices learn not
only the little things that make the
practical work about a vessel, but they
have some time each day for study.
"Oh, one of the superior officers
teaches us the theory of navigation," he
answered, when I asked him what they
studied
"We have to make pretty good use of
our time," he added, "for we can't get
to the second mates without passing an
examination, and before every promo
tion we've got to be examined."
Some boys are apprenticed at fourteen,
but the average age is a little older.
The term ends only when the appren
tice n twenty-one. In all his years of
apprenticeship a boy has no chance to
visit his home and family, unless the
ship happens to enter a port near his
home. When in port he is closely
watched. It is very seldom that his fa
ther can secure his release before his
term of apprentice has expired.
Most boys, however, are apprentices
because they really love the sea, and
they are willing to take the rough with
the smooth. Their position on the ves
sel is above that of cabin boy and below
that of officer. The aim of the appren
tice is to become an officer in the
merchantmarine of England. He re
ceives no wages during his term, and
his father pays for his clothes. I agreed
with Bobbie that only a boy who wa
very fond of the sea could enjoy the
life of an apprentice.--Chicago Record
Herald.
A Cood Sort of Club.
An interesting club is the Women's
Home Improvement Club, which is not
exactly duplicated elsewhere, says the
New York Evening Post. The object of
the club, to which only married women
"re eligible, is to promote the happine-s
of married persons, to teach wives how
they should improve the conditions of
home life in order that the home shall
Ibe more attractive to the husband, to
dispense charity to those cases which
members can personally investigate and
to procure situations for the unemploy
ed through direct application to the
members' friends in the mercantile or
manufacturing lines. The dues of mem
bers are to cents weekly, and an en
tertainment is given once a year for
the club's charity fund. According to
its charter, no donations can be accept
ed from outside sources, the club con
ducting its own charitable work. The
membership is limited, and there is a
long waiting list. During the summer
the dub takes regularly to the neigh
boring beaches of the city small chil
dmren of the neighborhood who need the
trip, and there are always from three
to ten members ready to accompany
them.
DogpCatchint Diploacy.
Parson Twine, the Chesterfieldian
sanitary officer and a dog catcher of
Atchison. recently called at a house and
asked the woman who appeared if she
kept a dog. "No, I don't," responded
the woman; "look for yourself."
"Madam," said Parson Twine, "what
ort of an administration would this be
if the dog tax collector doubted the
word of a lady?"
The woman looked at him helplessly
for a moment, and then softly said:
"I--I--I have one little dog which I
will pay on if you say SO."-K tsas
