Women and farm 'Work,
It is said that fully 500,000 women
are employed in the western states as
harvest laborers and general farm
hands. This is accounted for by the
numerous improvements in agricultu
ral machinery, which enable a woman
to do the work as easily as a man, and
also by the large number of women
who own farms and manage them
themselves. This is especially true In
lowa, Indiana, Kansas, Nebraska and
Minnesota, where there are farms of
1,000 acres belonging to women. Per
sons who are acquainted with life in
these states assert that in many cases
the women make more money out of
the farms than did the husbands or
fathers from whom they inherited
them.

GENEVA CENTURY TREE.
Btory of How It Grew from the WaHc
lUK-Stlok of ft Trax cler Has
Shaded Many Conirreicatioiia,
On Maple Hill, one mile west of the
Tillage of Geneva, stands one of the
largest trees in this state. It is 120
feet high, 115 feet in diameter, meas
ured through the branches, and the
diameter of the trunk is eight feet.
Maple Hill is the home of Charles Lean.
It is the highest ridge in the vicinity
of Geneva and the tree can be seen
for many miles from nearly every
point of the compass. For many years
the turnpike (now Hamilton street),
on which the tree stands, was an In
dian frail. The trail became a slate
road in IT!>4.
Somewhere about 100 years ago,
says the Buffalo Express, a prospector
named Ephraim Dee passed through
the present site of Geneva, on a trip
over the old Albany and Buffalo turn
pike. On bis journey around the foot
of Seneca lake he out a stick to help
himself along. At the summit of Ma
ple hill he stuck his cane in the rich
earth and, lying down, went to sleep.
It was late when he awoke, and he re
sumed his tramp, forgetting th
freshly cut, green stick, which soon
rooted and sprouted and grew to in
the “monarch of the forest.” Lee's
story preserved the tree, when the
forest was cleared nil about it, and in
1843 the trunk was driven full of
spikes, so that an unsentimental road
master could not cut it down! It is
believed that the iron is the cause of
its wonderful, thrifty old age. When
Gen. Lti Fayette visited Geneva lie was
met by a cavalcade which waited under
this tree for the distinguished visitor,
tind on subsequent occasions it has
shaded many a congregation of reli
gious worshipers.
NO TIPS FOR CHIROPODISTS.

In SolvlnK,
Phe had just comp from the “par
lors.” as their manager called the
place, and had availed herself of the
treatment of one of the staff. She
was walking firmly, planting her feet
on the ground as if she had never
known what it was to tread gingerly
along, says the New York Sun.
r “I suppose he’s as much entitled to
o tip as the girl that fixes my nails,”
I she said to her companion, “but I
cannot for the life of me bring my
sejf to tip a chiropodist. I give the
girl her quarter after she has fixed
my nails just as regularly as I pay
CO cents at the desk. Hut I have
never yet tipped the chiropodist, and
it was only a few months ago that I
realized he expected it.
“I thought he was very solicitous
after he wgs through, asking how I
felt and saying good-by as 1 left his
| room; but I never suspected that he
wanted a fee, as 1 had never heard of
| tipping chiropodists. Afterward I
I asked somebody, who told me that
■ these men always expect to be
| tipped.
i “I could never decide on how much
to give them, even if I wanted to. It
costs only SO cents for a treatment,
and I couldn’t give him a tip of the
same size. On the other hand. I
could not offer one of those men ten
cents. I think I’ll vyait and let the
chiropodist’s tips become a little bit
better settled before I begin."
LESSONS BY PHONOGRAPH.
A New Device In TeaeltliiK Correct
Pronunciation In Foreign
Tonttues.
Teaching modern languages by
means of the phonograph is anew
device. It is employed by some of
the many correspondence schools
that have sprung up all over the
country in the last year or two.
At the headquarters of the school
the teacher speaks the lesson into
the funnel of the machine. These
records arc then mailed to the stu
dent, who may live a thousand mles
away, together with a phonograph
and several blank records.
In his own home the student sets
the phonograph gob g and listens
while it repeats as pure German,
Italian or French ns the teacher
knows how to speak. Having learned j
the lesson he repeats it to the talk
ing machine and sends the record
iiaek to the school, where (he teach
er criticises iv for his benefit.
Printed lesson- nre sent out also,
hut from the phonograph it is as
serted the pupil learns correct pro
nunciation as he never could from
hooks, and almost as well as he
would from the instructor nt first
hand.

MONKEY SLEW THE SNAKE.
felra((‘K> of I In* Hold Siminn Wim Too
* Mut'li for the C’ohm imtl the
Former Won,
At Bangalore, India, not long ago
n battle between a monkey and a
snake was witnessed by a party of
Europeans. The reptile, a cobra, was
enjoying a sun bath near the high
way, far from the beaten truck of
jungle travel, when the monkey
espied him and deliberately put an
end to his siesta by hurling at him
every missile he could find. The
snake wriggled awhile under the pun
ishment. and then in a fury gave
chase to the monkey. The little
simian was far too agile for the rep
tile, however, and kept him at a
safe distance until a pile of rocks was
reached. On this the monkey calm
ly perched, with his back against a
bowlder, and awaited the onslaught.
The snake came up in blind rage,
and again and again struck at the
monkey, who dodged every blow, al
lowing tlie venomous head to strike
tlu rock at his back. The cobra be
came more and more infuriated as
he battered himself against the
bowlder, and at last, bleeding and ex
hausted, lay at full length with every
tightinL r instinct subdued. This was
the monkey's opportunity. Seizing
the snake by the neck he quickly
rubbed the head off against a sharp
mint of rock, and then climbed a tree
md chattered gleefully at the admir
ug human spectators, who showed
■ heir appreciation of the spectacle

An English woman who visited Amer- i
icu a short time ago has been telling
her country women about the “strange

discovered green corn, but she had

crabs were quite new to her.
“They look like Boston baked beans, **
she explains, “but they taste much bet

An oyster cocktail filled her with awe
and enthusiasm She tried it at Del

course, in England, one didn’t serve
soup in a glass, but then neither did
i he English -“rve boiled eggs in a glass.
