Ing of the husband’s title to the wife’s
name appeared until one night last
week, when 1 attended some kind of a
charitable function arranged by the
pupils and teachers of one of the city
schools where my 12-year-old daughter
is enrolled. 1 was introduced right
and left as ‘Mrs. Congressman So-and-
So.
Now, it is bad enough to have
some one always saying Mrs. So-and-
So, wife of Congressman,’etc. My hus
band is a representative, one of a num
ber from his state, and not a single
vote was cast for me. Ar this func
tion I met ‘Mrs. Senator’ Blank, ‘Mrs.
Judge’ S., ‘Mrs. General’ X. andastring
of other ‘titled’ women. The climax
was capped, however, by my young
daughter, who brought me a very
pretty, personable young girl whom
she introduced as Miss Janitor Z. Be
fore I recoiered from the shock of this
title an elderly woman appeared on
the acene, whom my daughter imme
diately presented as ‘Mrs. Janitor’ Z.
Mrs. Janitor Z. smiled a little as she
acknowledged the introduction, then
remarked in a perfectly self-possessed
manner: ‘My husband is the janitor,
not 1. Is it not odd how children ape
the manners of their elders?’ Which
was something of a siap at me, though
unintended. But, after all, if it ia
’Mrs. General,’ why not also ‘Mrs.

Tn the northern Sahara two animals
are found which seem specially adapt
ed for life in this forbidden land.
They are the addax antelope and
L dor’s gazelle, says the London
Spectator.
The addax is an vgly,
awkward-looking animal, with spiial
horns and very widespread hoofs,
which enable it to go at a great pace
over the sand. Pliny knew of its ex
istence, and was naturally interested
in i\ for as South Africa was us yet
unvisited, this was one of the few
species of antelo];-* known to the an
cients. It was not rediscovered till
liuppell found it near Dongola. As
it is rather a large antelope, it re
quires a considerable amount of food
and the difficulty which suggested it
self was to discover where it found
its food. It is now nearly certain
that the addax follows the rains
which fall at certain seasons, and
probably travels vast distances in the
wake of the season’s storms.
The
immense area of desort in northern
Africa makes this possible, though
without special knowledge of the me-
teorology of that part of thecontinent
It would be unsafe to assert that ♦ i
there is always rain going on in some
part of the desert fringe. How the
addax supports itself in these abso
lutely dry intervals ia not known
Gazelles are mainly desert animals,
but Loder’s gazelle seems to have
rather more than the family leaning
toward the land of thirst and sand.

JAPAN’S INTEGRITY.
Ha* People Are Proud to Serve Their
Goverumeat for a Pit
tance.
The modern Japan which Mar
quis Ito’« policy has brought forth
wa« made possible by the religious
devotion of nobles and coolies to the
emperor, which made the imperial'
wishes law; by the intense patriot-
i«m and the official integrity of the
retainer« of the Diamyos, who have
become the officers of the army and
navy and members of the civil serv
ice, writes Frederick Palmer, in Scrib
ner’s. As an occidental. I should
place integrity as the first cause
When you have official servants so
proud that even the postman will not
accept a Christmas present, a states
man knows that, whatever his errors
of construction may be. the timbers
are sound. As long as men become
policemen on less than a coolie’s pay
for the honor of serving the govern
ment, it will never lack for first-class
ability to All its offices. Japan may
well reverence her old military aris*
tocra^y, with its false punctilios.

For nearly four rears I suffered
from ovarian troubles. The doc
tor insisted on an operation as the
only way to get well. I, however,
strongly objected to an operation.
My husband felt disheartened as
well a9 1, for home with a sick
woman is a disconsolate place at
l>est. A friemily druggist advised
hitn to get a bottle of Wine of

I began to improve in a few days and
my recovery was •ery rapid. V’ith-
