"The Old Homestead" is a play that pleases all classes. When ministers of th gospel urge their con gregations to attend a theatrical per formance and preach its moral from trom the pulpit, It follows necssarily that the play Ha; rt is far above the average In point of merit, wholesome ness, purity and truth. Yet, we are told, that is precisely what the minis ters of the gospiel have been doing and we are doinv In the case of "The Old Homestead."

The congress of the International Suffrage Alliance of the World, which is to hold Its 'ses sions here this week, has attracted Woman and Stocks. Women speculators tiuve a habit of giving to "brokers orders with a strlig attached to rbem. A woman who owned some bunk stock asked a broker to sell It at Z'0 If be thought she could not get any more for it. The market in this slock bad been inactive for months, and 250 was the highest price ever recorded for it. The uext day the broker had a chauce to sell the stock at 2130. It so happened that on the same day a lively demand for this bank stock developed, und before the day was over it was nulling at 300. iTue broker wrote to bin woman cu-tooicr tiit he tzi sold tor rtoct for $230 a share and would she send her certificate to him. for delivery to the purchaser? She refused, to deliver the stock. "You ought to bare known better than to "sell tt for 250," she remon strated. "I am going to sell it today myself for 300." It was not until the broker appealed to the courts that be succeeded In get ting the nnrk from the woman. Strand Mapmua. , V-f-. . , ; ? . ' ' - Pretty Fin. Gcratchts. , Most people consider a polished sur face as something absolutely smooth that is, something with no scratches on it whatever. To polish a thing, however, the very reverse is done to it It is filled with very fine scratches All eyeglass lenses, glass for mirrors, furniture, etc., are rubbed with fine emery paper and later with an ez tremely fine powder which gives the finishing touches in the shape of very fine scratches. Now the questi(4 arise, as to just how fine, the scratches must be that is. how far apart they must be, for big scratches a good distance apart give anything but a polisbed sur face. The answer is that the scratches or ridges between must be less than one-quarter the wsjre length of the light that falls on the surface for the light to be reflected and thus give the effect of a polished surface. This Is less than oue two-huudred-tbousandtb of an inch for light waves. No break ing up of the waves is caused. . and they consequently are reflected in their original form. New York Tribune. The Offense Defined. General Crnft, an attorney of Terre Haute. Ind.. was once culled into a Jewelry store In the town to settle a dispute. . "See here, general," explained the proprietor, "if I tike a watch from Mr. Smith here and make repairs that cost me 1 cents and then keep it hanglug up for a week and charge him ( 0 when he comes, to geMt,what jer- centage do 1 make? We have been figuring for half an hour and only get up to 000 per cent, and that Is but a ; dollar, so we decided to leave It to you." .' "Well," .said the general gravely, "you must know that it is a fact, and It has been demonstrated by calculat-' ing machines, that at certain points In progressive numbers the law govern ing them changes. In your case the law would change long before It reach ed the tO and would run out of per centage and into what is knows and designated as larceny." ' Open Door and a Light.
