Women's Rule.

It is n singular foet that the relgn of every queen in modern times has beeu attended by a wonderful advance in the material, political, literary ond even military progress of her country. The reign of Catherine the Great of Russiu witnessed the widest extension of the Russian empire that had been known up to her time, and the greater part of the Russian conquests were ne- complished during the time of the other Russian empresses. The reign of Maria Theresa was a period of pros- perity for AustriaHungary, in spite of the Seven Years' war, while the reigns of Elizabeth ond Anne in Brit- ish history were nges of glory in let- ters, orts and war, and that of Mary tuight have heen but for the unlucky foreign alliance she formed with Pullip of Spain. Grent Britnin has never seen such an age os that of Victoria, and perhaps will not ngaio for centuries. The presence of a queen on the throne as sovereign seems to inspire all the poetry and chivalry there is In the na- ture of mon, and perhaps that fact fur- nishes an adequate explanation why countries flourisb under female rulers. -Philadelphia Ledger.

Callfornin's Famous Liquor Saloon. One of the curious sights in Call- fornia which every traveler goes to see is the bar In the principal hotel ut Nevada City, made out of California laurel. This bar was placed there in 1864. The hotel has been rebuilt sev- eral times since, but the bar has been taken out and always put back in the Dew hotel. L. D. Calkins, wbo went to California before the '49s, saya that over $5,000,000 has passed over tbe counter of this bar-tbe largest sum of money that bas passed over any bar in the same period of 35 years. The wooden top of the bor was some- tbing like eight inches thick when it was first built. Now it is worn down to less than two Inches. - Leslie's Weekly.

In Siberia acetylene gas is largely used to light up various operations along the line where work is carried on at night.

The railway authorities of the Mex. ican government bave been ordered to use certain safety appliances. All the passenger cars must be so equipped before the end of 1904.

Forty-one gos engines using blast furnace gas are working in vermany, I the total horse power aggregating 21,950. The horse power of such en- gines in Belgium is 3,700, France 3,250. and England 2,060.

London is to have a new street, wbich will give a great thoroughfare north and south. The new street will begin at Theobald's Road. will cross High Holborn, and will finally reacb the Strand by means of two arms which are limited by Somerset House. The railway mileage of Europe has increased from >3,650 miles in 1875 to 167.439 miles in 1990. The increase has been largest in Russia. amounting to no less than 15,142 miles; then comes Germany, 14,666 miles; and France witb 12.990 miles; while Eng- land has added only 5,099 miles.

It is snid that coal was mined priot to 1113. In the Liege district coal was first found about 1199. In 1214 coul was attracting some attention on the southern side of the Firth of Forth.

ATCHISON GLOBE SIGHTS.

We don't like a dinner where there is more style than things to eat. Probably no woman ever gave "party" without borrowing something from the neighbors.

When the women sny men must be handled with "tact." they usually mean that they must be deceived.

MR, M'SWAT AS A COOK.

Aotwithstanding Explicit InstrDe- tlons lle Mokes a Dismal Failure of It.

The MeSwat household was thrown Into temporary confusion by the sud- den adjournment, sine die, of the kitch en lady, a young woman of great force of character, who had learned of a place where the hours of work were shorter and the afternoons out longer and more frequent, and had gone to fill it.

"Now, Lobelin," said Mr. McSwat, us they were preparing to retire fur the night, "if your headache isn't any bet- ter in the morning don't you hurry about getting up. I can manage the breakfast."

"You!" exclaimed Mrs. MeSwat, with the contempt that every experienced housewife feels for the meddlesome ; masculine being who seeks to thrust himself into the affairs of the domestic cook-shop. "You! Wby, Billiger, you don't know any more about cooking a breakfast than an old hen!"

"I'll show you," he retorted. "Wc have buckwheat cakes every morning, don't we? Well, you tell me how to manage them. and if I don't turn out as good an article of buckwheat cake as you ever put into your system I'll eat the griddle. What is the first thing you do ?"

"Well, if you are bound to try your hand at it-but you've got to promise one thing. Will you do exactly what ] tell you ?"

"Of course I will. What do you take me for ?"

"Then the first thing you do after you have got your fire all ready is to prepare tbe batter. It's in the stone jar on the kitchen table. There's al- ways some left over after breakfast. and it leavens the batter for the next morning. Understand that ?"

"Anybody can understand that. Go on."

"Weil. I've fixed it for to-morrow morning. All you will have to do will be to thin it, put in a little soda, aalt. and New Orleans molasses-"

"What is the molasses for?" "To make the cakes brown nicely. stupid."

"Don't you call names, madam. What else ?"

"Have your griddle on the fire. You'll find the greaser in the little saucedish by the batter jar. Don't use too much grease-"

"How do I thin the hatter ?"'

'I hadn't forgotten that. You take a cup of warni water-not hot, remem- ber-stir in a small teaspoonful of soda, about the same quantity of salt, pour it In the batter, stir it slowly a minute or two, add the molasses-that's in a fruit jar in the pantry-and tben bake, a trial cake. If it lacks anything you can tell what it is from the way it tastes. Can you remember all that ?"

"Remember all that!" said Mr. Mc Swat, with crushing disdain. "Do you "all that anything to remember ?" "There's one thing more. You'll need the cake turner. It is in the drawer of the kitchen tahle. Now do you think manage it ?"

His only reply was a soft snore. Abont 6:30 the next morning Mr. Bil- liger MeSwat might have been seen it his great net of getting the breakfast. He lighted the gas range, hunted up tbe griddle, put it over the fire, and ap. pronched the jar of batter.

Rolling up his sleeves be content- plated it in silence a moment, and then began businea.

The first thing he did, after hunt- Ing up the necessary groceries in the pantry and greasing the griddle, was to fill a teacup with water from the boiler, which, providentially, was still warm, and stir in a heaping tablespoon. ful of sorla

"I think that's the quantity she pre- scribed." be sud, cheerfully. "If it isn't enough I can put in more."

Tben he added a tablespoonful of salt, a teaspoonful of the New Orleans molasses and poured the mixture into the batter jar.

He stirred the batter fiercely. It foamed up at once and ran out over the top of the jar.

"She mixed up too much of blamed stuff," be muttered, stirring it still more vigorously.

By this time the kitchen was filling with smoke.

Concluding that the griddle was hot enough he hastily lifted the jar, car- ried it to the stove and poured a quan- tity of the hatter out on the smoking griddle through the spout on the side of the jar.

There was a tremendous sizzle. "You bet it's bot enough!" he ex- claimed. "Now where's the blooming cake turner ?"

He could not find it.

"Never mind," he said. "I've seen my mother use a caseknife."

When he had secured a caseknife it appeared to be high time to turn the cake. On the upper side it looketl dry and yellowish. But the cake stuck. He sawed the knife under it with des- perate haste, however, and finally got it over-in sections-a blackened, fraz- zled, discouraging semblance of a buckwheat cake.

"I don't believe it needs any cooking on that side," he said, scraping it off the griddle and slapping it on a plate. "This," he continued, with a fero- cious grin, "is the 'trial cake' she was talking about."

He tasted it.

"Ye gods!"

It was all he said.

And then Mr. McSwat took that jar of buckwheat batter, carried it out to the alley and emptied it into the gar. bage box.

Five minutes later he appeared at the foot of the stairwar "ing up from

the front hall.

"Lobelia." he yelled. "that batter of yours got spoiled last night ! I'm going to the meat market for a steak!"-Chi- cngo Tribune.

Not What She Expected.

A young lady of the city who ls somewhat noted for her coquetry was talking a few days ago to one of her numerous beaux.

"Oh," she said, in a most pitiful tone of voice, "nobody loves me."

As she paused for reply the young man said with that tenderness which always appeals to the feminine heart: "I am quite sure that somebody does love you."

Her face brightened very percepti- bly as she said with a great deal of Interest:

"I wonder who on earth it can be Do you know ?"
