Battle Scarred Heroine.?There Is a rather attractive young woman In Cleveland who had the misfortune to fall down stairs a few months ago and fracture one of her knees so badly that the limb had to be amputated, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. The young woman, of course, walks with the aid of crutches. She is not In the least sensitive about the matter, and she doesn't mind informing properly Introduced people of the accident which maimed her. She has set a limit, however, and she was compelled to use It one afternoon recently. She got Into a Payne avenue car and found herself in the same seat with a sharp-eyed woman ooAmf?d to take a whole lot of in terest In her and her crutches. She scrutinized the young woman's face carefully for a couple of minutes, then turned her attention to the workmanship of the crutches, which she even took the liberty to handle curiously. Then she looked the young woman over again and leaned over to her: "D'ye mind tellln' me how you lost your leg?" she asked. "Not in the least," responded the young woman, amiably. "I lost it in the battle of San Juan Hill." One Thing She Could Do.?One Saturday afternoon recently a frail little man started to cross Broadway at Forty-second street Just when all sorts of fast moving vehicles were whirling their matinee patrons up Broadway. At the same instant a very fleshy lady started from the curb directly opposite with the same purpose in mind. By remarkable luck both succeeded in escaping the passing wheels, but as fate would have it. the little man, whose eyes were busy ogling the traffic on either side of him, darted plump into the oncoming woman at the middle of the street. The result was a sickening collision, with the little man down and out. "You should have looked where you were going," said the fleshy woman, bending over the victim on the curb, to which he had been carried by a traffic policeman. "But is there anything I can do for you?" "Yes," he replied faintly, openiiTg his eyes a moment, "get the number of the automobile that struck me."?Llppincott's Magazine. Monty In Ptcan Culture.?The owner of an eighty acre pecan orchard in south Georgia recently refused an offer of J 1,600 for an acre of it. This orchard is twelve years old. It has probably been bearing from five to six years. It is estimated that pecan orchards can be brought to bearing age at a cost of $40 or less an acre. In dozens of districts In the south land for pecan orchards may be had at from $19 to $25 an acre, as well located and as productive as are to be found anywhere. By the selection of the proper variety of nut and proper care in handling the orchard there is no question as to the fine profits which can be made within a few years. A twelve-year-old orchard is just reaching its full maturity. Indeed, its bearing value continues to increase year by year, and it is good for a hundred years or more. Under the best methods in vogue today it can he made productive after five or six years.?Yazoo Sentinel. Polite and Agreeable.?A well known New Yorker, now dead, who during his lifetime bore the appellation "Silent," was accustomed to employ various means to deliver himself from bores and time wasters. On one occasion, when the New Yorker was putting in his vacation in New England, there was one native so bold as to visit the taciturn man at his bungalow. "How did ye get along with him?" asked some one, when the bold one returned. "Fine!" said the visitor. "Fellows, I've often heered that that man was a sullen cuss, but I want to tell you that he is one of the politest fellows I ever saw? I hadn't been settin' chattin' with him moren' ten minutes before he'd asked me five or six times to come an' see him again."?Lippincott's. Birds of a Feather.?To Jacob Hope. Philadelphia's famous bird and animal expert, an odd adventure happened the other day. Mr. Hope was strolling out Walnut street when a bird faker accosted him. The faker drew from his pocket the usual painted sparrow?a gorgeous thing of blues and golds and greens? and evidently taking Mr. Hope for one of the millionaires of Rittenhouse square, he said: "I jest nabbed this bird off that there walnut tree. Can't I sell her to ye cheap? Look at her?ain't she a beauty? I never seen nothin' like her before. What kind of a bird is she, do ye know?" "Young man." said Mr. Hope, "if it's true that birds of a feather flock together, then I should say that undoubtedly she is a jailbird."?Exchange. Wrong Again.?The clock was striking the hour. The latter winced and cowered beneath the bludgeoning. High in the heavens swung the great silver moon. The dark shadow of the tall cathedral tower fell across the street with a loud crash. Mrs. Murphy started up in bed with an exclamation of fright. "What was that?" she said. "A shadow falling." replied Mr. Murphy, sleepily. "1 thought it was the price of meat," said Mrs. Murphy. "No such luck." returned Mr. Murphy, and turned his face to the wall to resume his slumbers.?Rochester Union and Advertiser. Out of the Dim Past.?A new prophet with a small following declares he will be on earth again 500 years from now. And this promptly recalls that ancient story of the believers in reincarnation who stopped at an inn on the highway near Athens and ate a hearty meal. When the landlady asked for her pay they told her they would be on mat same nignwav ukumi m auu years and would pay her then. But the landlady put her arms akimbo and shook h< . head. "That won't do. hoys," she grimly answered. "You forget that you were here 500 years ago and put me off with the same promise then."?Cleveland Plain Dealer. XV "The same thing will make entirely different impressions on different readers," remarked the man who writes. "Quite so," replied the lawyer. "Inters which bring tears to a girl's eyes frequently make a jury laugh." ilotrs of .fashion. CHANGING STYLES. Pointers to the Women on What to Wear and How to Wear It. Sleeves of different lengths and of different colors are worn in the same gowns. Dainty under muslins in the advance spring styles arc richer than ever with embroidery. Wide braids are seen on many of the white serge and mohair tailored suits. Kid gloves on the glace order and lonaiK. wMtp are worn with any even ing costume. White, pink, light yellow and American Beauty shades are the most popular for evening gowns. Polished wood buttons, of cloth and silk colors are in great favor for polo and storm coats. Irish lace bands?carrying out the Irish lace vest or collar so much worn ?adorn many sleeves. Black and white effects are being made up in many lines. A favorite with several of the manufacturers is the back ground with white pencil lines. The raglan sleeve predominates in the evening coat, the kimono sleeve is next in favor and after that the orthodox coat sleeve of generous size. For evening frocks select satin, chiffon, beaded net, lace or velvet. Trim with bead bandings, hand embroidery, fur, ribbon or bead fringe. Veils of solid color?blue and brown, lavender and even black?have very brilliant borders, varying from three to five inches. 'Handsome beaded bags show no signs of waning in popularity, but the ones done in very small beads is now considered quite the thing. For evening coats plush and other fur fabrics are in great demand, and they are also used as linings for coats of chiffon, satin, lace, etc., according to information from Paris. The new cotton goods just opened for spring- are passing beautiful. The first striking feature of them is the prevalence of borders. The most beautiful pieces among the novelties come from France. Persian patterns and colors are back again and prominent, but they are not alone, for the flowered borders and the patterns whose motives suggest vague hints of natural shapes in the new art style are also prevalent. Flower designs were never so beautiful or fascinating before. There are hosts of thin materials? all the Swisses, organdies, voiles, crepes and nameless weaves, playing on the old types. And among these cottons are exquisite pieces that will make lovely evening gowns, for cotton holds a high place in the wardrobe of today. In the borders one finds all the patterns that have been pleasing the fashion makers for the past year?natural looking flowers, oriental designs and tones, copies from old French museum pieces, laces and stencilings. All pocket books and all tastes can certainly be suited in the new cotton goods. Many a girl is just now planning what clothes she shall get for the spring season. Perhaps the plan of one of the best dressed women of Paris for a successful wardrobe will aid In spending the dress allowance to the best advantage. Says this clever Frenchwoman: "I buy only four new gowns a year. I get one in the spring, one in the summer, another in the fall and the last in the winter. One year I will get a irnmi tailored suit, an evening dress, a fine negligee, perhaps, and so on. Another year I will choose a morning gown, an afternoon dress, a dance frock, and of course, have some remodeling done on last year's wardrobe if necessary. In these gowns I specialize, I let each represent a class and in this way I have a good toilet for every occasion. Then I spend the rest of my allowance on the very smartest and best neckwear, veils, gloves, and other little things, that I can afford. These dress esceteras if they are dainty and smart, count more for effect in the long run than fine dresses without them. If you can't afford both, my advice is to get plain or conservative dresses and suits and add chic, and vary their monotony with little things. Hats, veils, shoes, neckfixings and gloves have a lot to do with the smartness of one's appearance. An expensive suit with the wrong hat, doesn't look half so well as a cheaper suit with the right hat." One of the first items to consider for the spring season is the blouse for early spring wear. The fall and winter waists are now beginning to show wear, and the problem is to get something in a washable waist that will do to finish the winter season with and will also go well with the new spring suit. There is a great tendency to favor white lace and net underbodice with the transparency in suit coloring. The simplest of trimmings are used, and in many cases the waist is quite plain I nnllon linn A* t V??o nninf hnnrl embroidery and beading are used as a finish. A new note is the detachable frill, which may be worn with several waists. When the frill is used for waists fastening In the middle instead of the side, crochet -d edging is applied to both edges of the frill. Tn the tailored models there is considerable elaboration shown in construction. They are made with groups of plaits, broad ones over the shoulders. All tailored models have full length sleeves, with straight, starched cuffs, though some have the soft turn- I back collar and cuff finish. In the lingerie blouses the majority show three-quarter sleeves, with the Dutch neck and peat ant sleeve. Cordings and narrow puffings for trimmings are extensively used. A new note is the application of inserting over the arm seam. After the lace is firmly stitched, the material is cut out, under the lace. Wide, double beading is also applied in this manner. Now as to the new spring suit, the short coat will be everywhere in evidence. One of the notable features of the smartest suits is the manner in which the jackets fit over the hips. Some, in fact fit so tight as to give the appearance of a one piece dress. Twenty-six inches has been chosen as the standard length, of the new spring jackets. This length is practical and a becoming length for the average figure. It strikes a happy medium atid is therefore the length of all short lengths. The new jackets button much higher than they did last year. Skirt forms still hold to the narrow straight skirt. The band all around the bottom has j been discontinued, but the skirts are still close and figure revealing. These skirts promise to remain with us all I during the summer. AEROPLANE PROPELLERS. Principal Problem Is the Selection of Proper Material. The llrst aerial screw was proposed and used by Leonardo da Vinci, the, great artist, architect and man of learning of Italy, who, like Glottl and Michelangelo, was too big for any one art to contain. After the fashion of most master minds, he went right to the heart of the matter and pointed out the ideal propeller for air navigation, but it was centuries after before the little men around him could get away from the follies of oars, paddle wheels, windmills, and such primitive ideas as incumbered their minds, and it was not till 1834 that a series of Frenchmen finally developed the screw for balloon propulsion. Fifty years thereafter It approached the true helix under Dupuy de Lome in 1872. Colonel Renard in 1888 published the results of his numerous experiments on the losses due to slip, etc., and the causes thereof, and gradually it became apparent that these should not exceed 30 per cent of the work nf fVii. mnlnr in nnv well deslCnpd screw. The development of the various types soon again evolved two classes ?slow speed and large diameter and high speed with small diameter. At present both classes have their ardent adherents, but in view of the conclusive results In favor of the slow speeds and large diameter, obtained by experiments with ordinary blast fans during the last few years, there is no doubt that the best results are got by the slow speed and reasonable diameter of propellers. The French never use two propellers. as in some American makes, principally because of the great danger that ensues when one of the screws breaks or stops, if there are two. They all vary in size between two and three meters and 600 to 1,200 revolutions per minute. Specifically, the Voisin is 2.3 meters. 1,100 revolutions per minute; Clement-Bayard, 2.4 meters. 750 revolutions; Bleriot XII., 2.7 meters, 580 revolutions; Farman, 2.5 meters. S00 revolutions. The principal problem at present is to get a strong, light material which will not warp in the weather, will not fly to pieces under the centrifugal force nor bend out of shape and yet be light and shapely. You can buy propellers from the aeroplane dealers in Paris in solid wood, hickory and ash, glued up of sections of flat pieces, in black walnut, oak oumee, hickory and holly, or you can get them in solid cast aluminium finely finished, prices varying from $100 to $150 each. I think that when Americans get around to it we will stamp them out of sheet steel and clinch lock the edges.?Warren H. Miller in Engineering Magazine. Don't Shoot.?Mr. Justice Harlan was hot in the collar, and pardonably so, when he predicted that some day a Washington chauffeur would be shot by some man from the west. The statement that such individuals as the fellow who almost ran over Mr. Justice Harlan and Mr. Justice White are public nuisances, and that men have died of gunshot wounds, and worms have Affnnooo lnca crrcj \*o than they commit every day, Is not exaggeration. But try to refrain from adopting the suggestion of Mr. Justice Harlan, or fulfilling his prophecy. When the ruffianly chauffeur offends don't shoot! It would merely create a false sentiment in behalf of such offenders. They do not deserve such sympathy as the murder of one of their kind would result in. When the chauffeur offends try to get his number and have him arrested. If you canU, the probability is that you can't hit him in six shots, and there is always the innocent bystander. The selfish person who indulges his taste for gun play at the expense of the safety and comfort of persons in the street is not less criminally inconsiderate than the joy-riding chauffeur. Only an expert marksman could hit a chauffeur on the wing if the car were going too fast for the number to be seen. Let the law, and not the revolver, "play the umpire," but invoke the aid of the law whenever you can. The community will applaude and your conscience will commend your efforts.? Louisville Courier-Journal. The Mystery.?Soon after the arrival of the first baby, his wife went upstairs one evening and found him standing by the side of the crib and gazing earnestly at the child. She was touched by the sight and tears filled her eyes. Her arms stole softly around his neck as she rubbed her cheek caressingly against his shoulder. He started slightly at the touch. "Darling," he murmured dreamily, "it is incomprehensible to me how they get up such a crib as that for 99 cents." World's Work.
