Feminine Inconsistency.
A clubwoman, writing In the Phila
delphia Kecord, reveals a feminine In
consistency lu the peculiar views held
by some women about the use of their
'first names. She says:
"A couple of years ugo I had occa
sion to send u letter to a married wo
man, and In addressing her 1 wrote
'Mrs. Henry .' Imagine my sur
prise when In reply 1 received an ln
tlgnant letter from her, iu which she
said: 'I do not at all like to have my
identity submerged In that of my hus
band. I do not see why I cannot be
addressed by my own name. Because
I am married Is that any reason why
' should lose my Individuality? My
name Is Anna.' The next letter 1
wrote to the indignant wife you can
be sure it bore the first name of the
woman in question, but the climax
came recently, when the husband died
and my fastidious friend was left a
widow. I wrote her on club business
and, bearing lu mind her first scold
ing, took particular pains to address
her as 'Mrs. Anna .' The answer
to this from her makes me shiver to
think about 'Do you think I hare so
far forgotten my beloved Henry.' she
said, 'as to be willing to abandon his
name altogether? I wish you would
address me as Mrs. Henry in the fu
ture, please. I may be an unfortunate
widow, but I Rtili bear my husband's
name, I think.' "
A 33-day ralnstorn has Just ended

month's duration Is responsible for
the floods which are now raging In

have completely tied up railroad
traffic.
The Best AlarmlClock.
If you have use for an alarm
clock to wake you up these
spring mornings, then you
should get a good one. A poor
alarm clock Is much worse than
no clock at all. You cannot de
pend upon a cheap clock picked
tip probably In a place where
the knowledge of clocks Is un
known. When you buy a clock
from us you know that If any
thing goes wrong we are ready
to make good with the proper
repairs.
All alarm clocks guaranteed
and cost from $1.00 to $3.50.

Ths President's Salary.
It Is snfe to say that very few of the
people living In this country know bow
the president of the United States
draws his salary of $50,000 a year. Of
those few who may have given the
matter a thought, a largo majority do
not know whether he receives his sal
ary monthly, quarterly or semiannual
ly. As a matter of fact, the salary due
the president is taken to the White
House by a trusted messenger from the
olilce of the treasurer of the United
States on the last day of each month
and handed over to the official whoso
business It Is to look after It The
president receives his salary In the
shape of a check, the $50,000 being di
vided Into eight checks of $1,100.07 each
and four checks of $4,100.00 each,
Thus one mouth out of every three the
president receives 1 cent less on his
check than he does the other two. Some
such arrangement as this Is necessary
as, of course. $50,000 Is not exactly di
visible by twelve.

THE SCHEMIHL
He Is the Poor rellow Who Always
Misses His Chance.
The schcmlhl Is easier to understand
than to define. Many years ago a gath
ering of the wits at the Maccabaeus
endeavored to come to a decision as to
the real definition of a Bcbemlhl. They
could not agree as to the origin of
the word, and they found it equally
hard to define what exactly a schcmlhl
is. The nearest shot says the Jewish
Chronicle of London, was that of Stu
art M. Samuel, M. P., who sold that
ho could tell a story that would illus
trate exactly what was meant by the
term. There was a poor man who
could not find anything to do. What
ever he tried failed, and when he
sought employment he could not ob
tain it Day after day he sot (schemihl
like) on a bench in the public gardens
waiting for some one to offer him
work, but the offer never came. For
a whole year be sat thus each day 'in
til at last he attracted the attention of
a merchant who said to himself:
want some one at my warehouse, and
f think I shall offer the Job to that
poor man who Is always sitting so pa
tieutly and wistfully as though be Is
looking for employment Tomorrow
I shall spe.ik to him." The morrow
came, and the poor man started for his
usual walk to his usual seat As, how
ever, hu was leaving bis house be said
to his wife: "My dear, I have been otlt
like this for a whole year, and notb
lug has ever come of it Today I think
I shall stay at home." And he did.
And he missed the merchant That Is
the schemihl.
A LIFE OF THE ROOFS.
Gardens Flourish on the Housetops of
Florence, Italy.
There still exists In Italian cities a
life of the roofs that Is distinct and
characteristic and of which the mere
foreigner and tourist Is entirely un
aware. Particularly Is this the case in
Florence. Mount to the top floor of
ono of these grim, big palaces standing
in some gloomy, sunless street often
approached by a stern, forbidding door
way and dark, steep 6talrs, and you
will hold your breath with wonder at
the surprise that awaits you, for here
before your eyes stretches an unfa
miliar city, a red and green city of
wide expanse and varying altitudes, a
city no less architecturally beautiful
than the one you have left below and
enlivened, too, most unexpectedly by
verdure.
In the very heart of the city, on Its
topmost apex, there Is no trace of
grime. The air is pure and whole
some. Indeed, Its breezes are charged
with no small suggestion of sea and
mountain breath. As for the smoke
ono would expect to find hanging above
the roofs of a densely populated city, it
is conspicuous l as absence, and only
at the hour of meals docs some faint
blue column rise for the briefest space
Into tho atmosphere. Helen ZImmern'a

Grant the Hero.
When General Grant was seized with
his fatal illness lu the autumn of 1S84
he appeared before the world in an en
tirely new character. From being view
ed as the stern, uncompromising and
conquering military commander, the
revelation of his simple resignation in
the face of great suffering claimed for
him new fame as a hero in another
sense. His last battle with the great
conqueror destined him for grander
laurels thau were gained ou any of his
many triumphant fields. . It was the
purely human side of his nature that
then appealed to the getieral sympathy
of mankind. Thus his last and only
surrender was his greatest victory. If
It had been otherwise, history would
have cheated itself of a a example of
Christian fortitude the like of which
has iiecu scii!o:n recorded. Dr. G. F
