ELLER \ PRIZED HIS WIFE'S CRITICISM Huxley Not Above Acknowledging the Value of Her Assistance? Hie Advice to Herbert Spencer. Mrs. Thomas Henry Huxley, who died recently, was her husband's chief critic, and all his writings were submitted for her approval before they were seen by any other eye. To her judgment, savs their son, was due the toning down of many a passage which erred by excess of vigor and the clearing up of phrases the public might have found obscure. i _ , o/*c> i. e ? mmg 10 uer m iaoo, lie couiwwea that the editor of Macmillan's had brought him the proofs of the famous lecture on a "Piece of Chalk," and said, ''There is one paragraph I can't make head or tail of." "I looked to where his finger pointed,'" wrote Huxley, "and behold, it was the paragraph you objected to when I read you the lecture. I told him, and said I should confess, however ?et up it might make you." An innulonf a t ikn Xlnwlni-a' V? ATt au iiiwiuciii ui uic ax uaiuj a nvireymoon was a visit from Herbert Spencer, desperately trying, as usual, to escape from his morbid condition. They were at Tenby, and their report of the place tempted him. "I had hoped to benefit by going out dredging, and also by the pleasures of companionship. But I was disappointed. My state was suoh that I had to shun society, being unable to bear more than a few minutes' conversation." It was Huxley who, later on, prescribed for Spencer ''gynapopathy"? the sympathetic companionship of a wife; admitting, however, that the remedy had the serious in nience that it could not be lert off if it proved unsuitable. ni av/iiii rr rLAiimu oftrc "I never put much money in clothes." "Then how is it you are always well dressed?" "Oh! that's quite another matter." "Theu what's the answer?" "Mv wife has the midnight exploration habit." ' NOVELIST'S GOOD WORK. Charles Keade, who stands among the best of the English novelists KaaUo twnwn vtrritfnn TL'ith Q Qnr 1- i Wlii/oc uwac ntiv WUULU ??**** u wv?. ous purpose, was bom 100 veara ago in Oxfordshire. He graduated at Oxford, was educated for the bar, and niait a success in the law. He was moi* than forty years old before he began to write novels and plays. Hij inclinations lay in the direction of dramatic writing, and while ''The Ltom Mail" and several other of his playi were very successful, it was with novels that he accomplished a real work. His purposes, strongly worked out in his books, represented a form in the laws of England regarding lunacy, questions of prison reform, the important matter of copvright in books and plays, and in the vital matter of criminal procedure. His death occurred at his T rmrlnn in 1SR4-. IJUIIIC, Ill-til. + AN OBJECT LESSON. "Dad, why arc you so opposed to my being an author?" ''Hero is a bi?z department store." "Yes."

"You don't seem to hold me in the same regard that you did wlhen you married me," said the sentimental woman. "You must remember," replied her tactless spouse, "that you don't look the same as you did Fashions change so remarkably that I don't see how any man and woman can feel really acquainted."?Variety 'V,* >. * * V / k ' -* > AI.AS!

What has made this year's frost so destructive is the fact that the season is an early one?perhaps a fortnight earlier than usual. Of late years, too, growers have been striving to get their produce ready for market earlier so as to catch some of the high prices which have hitherto gone to places where the sun 6hinea more strongly and at an earlier period of the year.?London Chronicle. TREES THAT WHISTLE MUSIC ~ ?~ Peculiar Speclea of Vegetation In Barbadoea Actually Is Capable of Peculiarity Mentioned. Pnpf* hnvp tnld hnw the wind made music in the trees, and recently returned visitors from the West Indies have adduced facta to show that the poetic fancy is actuj ally a thing of undisputed fact in ! Barbadoes. It is the musical, or whistling, tree, having a peculiarshaped leaf and pods with a splitopen edge. The wind passing through these sends out the sounds which give the tree its peculiar name. In Barbadoes there is a valley filled with the trees, and when the trade winds blow across the island a constant, moaning, deep-toned whistle is heard from it, which in c+ill Vi/Mirc nf +V?o niorVif Vina a I.IIC oilii IIVIUO Wi illV ? von- weird and unpleasant effect. A species of acacia, which grows very abundantly in the Sudan, is also railed the whistling tree by the natives. Its shoots are frequently, by the agency of the larvae of insects, distorted in shape and swollen into a globular bladder from one to two inches in diameter. After the insect has emerged from a circular hole in the side of this swelling the opening, played upon bv the u-inrl iwompa n musical instrument "'vvv'"" ~ r - st{ equal in sound to a sweet-toned flute. ?Unidentified. . $ INCREASE OF APPENDICITIS. Doctor Mayo of Kochester, Minn., points out the interesting fact that within the past five years operations for appendicitis have increased over three hundred per cent and he savs that this alarming condition is due to the practise of wearing belts instead of suspenders. Now since all women wear belts?or what corresponds to belts, only more so?one would expect to find appendicitis particularly rife among the fair sex. Is this so? There is a growing belief that the increased number of operations for appendicitis is due to an increased medical recognition of a gold mine that can be successfully worked. Conceal from your doctor the fact that you are in possession of $100 and he will not recommend an operation for appendicitis. BRIDGES RUSTED BY SALT. Recent investigations of the Illinois state highway department indicate that few highway steel bridges in that state are painted after theii final completion and acceptance. Very serious corrosion results and is illustrated in a number of cases. A serious factor in the corrosion of . > iron and stee] is the use of salt to clear the roadway of snow and ice. This was considered at least partly responsible for the bad condition of truss members in a bridge which had been about fifteen years in service.? Engineering Record. THE REAL KIND.
