Fredorick Schllmmo, a stonomi son. dlod rocently In tho public hos pital nt Brunswick, Germnny, hav ing llvod for nearly thirtoon years in water. In November. 1S94, Schllmme, who wa thon 20 years old, fell from a true, Injuring his splno seriously practically his baokhone was broken and his rpinal cord crushed. In ooRMqiionoe of these Injuria the lower portion of his body was parn lyxed and certain internal organs wero preventod from psrformlus their usual functions. In order to save his lite the physi cians ord.red him a pernmneut bath, In which ho has sluce reclined, his body supportod on cleverly contrived rests. Tho wator was kept at a torn pornturo of 94 degrees, and Im morsod In the water Schllmmo folt Jlttlo or no palu. In a short time he was ableto do basket and wire work and m)vko cagos, otc. Ho also bred canaries In largo numbers, and displayed such Ingenuity that articles ho made were eagerly soughfaftor and fetched high prices. Itiltiili ' und American Shopping. Lady Auckland, member of tho British aristocracy and dealer in art curios, complains that American buyers "bargain and haggle" when they cometo hor shop on Baker fctreet. They "turn ovor things," nnd when nn offer of 5 shillings for a guinea article is refused "walk out without buying." Possibly thoy have had experience In guinea charges for C-shllllng ar ticles. But that the complhtnt can bo made, and tho plain, blunt term applied to what with us is designated by tho polito euphemism of "shop ping," lUustrntea all the difference between English and American methods of retail trade. Hero tho entrance of n customer into a shop carries no Implied obli gation to purchase. In tho case of American department Btores it may mean only a desire for a moment's diversion or to hear an advertised musical selection or to Iodic at an art gallery. Even In tho moro ex clusive shops It may amount nt most to the cnBiinl oxamlnatlonof nn ar ticle with a remote view to buying after prices have been compared elsewhere. Tho Amorlcan storekeeper, with a shrewd appreciation of tho curiosity of shoppers, makes n subtler appeal to their pntronngo by allowing them every posslblo liberty of solection without restriction. Clerks too in sistent in their attentions to cus tomers usually defeat their object by the prejudice their solicitations create. If tho old notion of n shopper's morn! obligation to buy and tho old custom of soliciting purchnsoH nt ev ery countor still obtain In London, it might bo wIho for shopkeepers to do away with thorn. Tho Amorlcnn dollnr has cometo bo a largo Item In tholr receipts. Ab nn oxamplo of Ub Importance it Is noted thnt 30 por cent of tho pntronngo of ono of Lon don's loading hotols Inst year wnB American, nfnlnst .11 per cent Brit ish. Tho accounts of Bend nnd ttc- font Ptroet donlors would probably reveal a no losi consldornblo pcr- contngo of Amorlcan custom To Invito rather thon to dlBcour ago tholr trndo, oven nt tho cost of violating Insular traditions, would nppenr to bo good business policy.

Profosor Rn lelgh ascribes to this fart tho mi raculous developmout of tho pootlc drama In tho days of Elizabeth. Archio Bell, n wrltor In tho Con tury Magnzlno, brings out nnothor aspect of tho satno question Uss favorablo to tho boy actors. Somo of them wo aro told woro 40 years of nro mill n Inllvr nlt rlirnnlrlnr in forms us that roal kings woro eome-fj tlms kopt waiting for tho perform ance to begin on tho stngo because tho stage queons wero dolayod in shaving. Todny this stato of affairs is rovorsod. Nowhoro has woman's emancipation boen moro comploto than on tho boards. Woman, Mr. Bell declnrcs, has dono moro for tho theator than any othor singles foroo. Tho theater in return lias lono moro for woman than any other Institution, and at prosent her supremacy Is almost un questioned In tho thentrlcal world. Nordnu contonds thnt tho future of pootry belongs to children nnd women. May tho samo bo truo of the stage? Mr. Bell evldontly holds tho bollof thnt It will, which ho bases upon the faot that, not contont with overshadowing man, woman oven takee his beat parts from him, nnd In place of tho boy-actor of former da we havo the woman apponrlug In tnascullno parts. Adolaldo Keliu R Ilamlot, Maudo Adams as Poter Pan and L'Alglon, of this genera tion, and sevoral women of tho past century havo glvon ample satisfac tion!!! lunsouline roles. Tho com ploto monopoly by tho "weaker sex" of overythlng dramatic Is not ono of the impossibilities of the future. Likewise Sarah Bernhardt's ro oont announcement that Bho may add tho rolo of Mophisto to hor vast ropertolro Is not without significance In Mr. Bell's opinion.
