Mist Beatrice Harraden It the recipient of many curious letters from unknown correspondents, a large proportion of whom are. men. 8hortly after the appearance of the German edition of "Ships That Past In tba Night" the received a letter from a German officer thanking her tor the pleasure atid stimulus he bad derived from reading the book and assuring her that he "prayed for her every night." He further described himself somewhat minutely. At recorded In the Grand Magazine, he was 48 years of age, antr-belonged to a Prussian cavalry regiment; It then appears to have occurred to the gentleman that he was writing to a single lady with whom he had no personal acquaintance, and, seised by the spirit of caution, he added the postscript: "This la not an offer of marriage!" Men may humble themselves In the dust to lady novelists, but not to the American woman, especially when she chances to be a writer herself. She counts it her due "to be even" at all risks.

Soon after the publication of "The Fowler" Miss Harraden received a letter, from a lady In the States whose name she bad never before heard. The lady had, however, written a book and made the magnificent offer to Bend Miss Harraden a free copy on condition that the latter would Bend In return a copy of "The Fowler." There was to be no suggestion of favor in the matter. The great unknown magnanimously added, "though I am aware that my book Is larger and costs more than yours, I am prepared to waive the difference In Biza and price!" ler Saturday night.

STE WART, G- A. P.D Kansas City i. '0SK, Agent. By Using Steel Wire Wonderful Results Have Been Attained. The plan of using steel wire for modern kites.

Initiated by Douglas Archibald, of England, 23 years ago, has produced recently some wonderful results at the I.lndcnberg Aeronautical observatory in Germany, where recently a kite was sent up four miles. "With a series of six kites In tandem, having a total area of 323 square feet and employing nine miles of wire, a height of 0,430 meters, or about four miles, wa attained," according to the London Times. to the automatic recording Instrument sent up with the kites, at the highest point the temperature was 13 degrees Fahrenheit, that on the ground being 40.8 Fahrenheit, while the velocity of the wind was 56 miles an hour, as against about 18 miles In the lower strata. This performance shows- what great advances have been made In the art of using kites for meteorological observations In the upper air, for In Mr. Archibald's early experiments the kites arose only some 1,600 feet, and a few years ago It teemed aa if two to two and a half miles would prove the limit to which they could be elevated." Much progress has been made In recent years in the design as well as the living of kites, with the result that with meteorologists they are gooij rivals of sir Stutevillo la working for Carrier In the furniture Btore while It hu often saved life before medicine could have been tent for or a physician summoned.

Though this is in many cases true, it will often be, found on careful observation that what has passed for a stubborn blindness to the virtue of innovation is in reality a keener perception of comparative merits than the Judge himself was aware of. This is particularly true of Chinese carpenters.

While most of their commonest tools differ in some radical way from our own. It is never safe to assume the superiority of the western product. Their small ax, for example, is a beautifully balanced tool and they are remarkably adept in the use of it, being able to work as true a surface therewith as can be obtained with an adze in the hands of the white man. On heavy work it Is customary for two to hew together on opposite sides, striking alternate blows. Both hands are used and tho recover is over the shoulder, alternate right and left.
