WASHINGTON AS A FIREMAN

Be Was m Member f FrlcnetsiiF

George Washington was a memberof the Friendship lire company organized in 1774 in his home Alexandrla At first the consisted ofcitizens who out of mutual friendship agreed to carry to every fire

two leathern buckets and one greatbag of oznaburg or wider linnenWashington was made an honorary

when he went as ato the congress of 1774 at

he examined the fire enginesin use there On his return to Philadelphia to the Continental congress in1775 he bought from a man namedGibbs a small fourth class engine forthe sum of 80 lOs and just beforehe set out for Boston Heights to be1come commander in chief he dispatchedthis little engine to the Friendshipcompany

During his younger days he alwaysattended fires in Alexandria and helpedto extinguish them In the last yearof his life a fire occurred near themarket He was riding down Tingstreet at the time followed by hisservant who was also on horsebackWashington saw that the Friendshipengine was insufficiently manned andriding up to a group of well dressedgentlemen standing near the scene ofaction he called out authoritatively

Why are you idle thereIt is your business to lead in

these mattersAfter which he leaped off his horse

and seizing the brakes was followedby a crowd that gave the engine sucha shaking up as it had not had formany a day

WOMAN AND THE LAW

flow Conditions Have Changed Injv the Lnst Half Centwry

Truly the position beforethe law has suffered mighty changesFifty or sixty years ago the twain wereindeed one and that theHe could collect all debts such as

that might be due her thoughincidentally he wasj liable for all sheowed She could not make a will ofher real estate nor of her personalproperty without his permission andhe was entitled to the income from herlands He could lock her up in hishouse and keep her there Whether hecould inflict chastisement was a mootpoint though a judge of the North Caroling supreme court held in I860 that hepossessed this power provided he used

a stick as large as his finger but nolarger than his thumb

Over the children the husband hadabsolute control mid could evenpoint a guardian by will who couldtake them away from the mother Theywere to be brought up in the fathersreligion without any consideration forher feelings In fact it was onlyabout 1SSU that the supreme court ofjudicature in England directed that thesons and daughters of the deceasednawab of Bengal by an English wifebe reared as Mohammedans Everybodys Magazine

Whims of IbsenLike many another great in his

writings Henrik Ibsen was not without his foibles Scorning company ashe professed to do Imd declaringways for solitude he nevertheless

I to be dined and to invite himto a banquet in his especial honorwas to give the great man unalloyedpleasure In his latter days too he

1 developed a passion for decorations ofi which he received a large number fromhis own and foreign monarchs and onpublic occasions he would all hisinsignia as probably the most deedrated author in the world It was onpublic occasions that Ibsen would

a small mirror and comb in the

would proceed to arrange his bushyhair and whiskers

Politics and LoveIts funny remarked Sandy Bpwen

how politics and love are so muchalike For instance if you meet abonnie girl and she gives you achance to kiss her you go in for freetrade However after you get married and your wifes mother wants toembrace her newly acquired sorfinlaw you go in for protection Ifwife seeks an osculatory exchange youIn time become a passive resister

turns out a home ruler if shehas any sense remarked MrsBpweawho happened to overhear the conversation London Mail

Odd KnivesIn a monastery in Ireland is a

very curious collection of knives of thesixteenth century the blades of whichhave on one side the musical notes tothe benediction of the table or grace

CROSSING SAHARA

The Costliness of Caravans and theMortality of Camels

The merchants who fit out a garflacaravan must stand all losses conse

quently great care is given to thelection of both the camels which carrythe valuable merchandise and the menwho them The tall andswift riding camel known as the mehari is seldom met with in northernTripoli The finest male draft camels jamal costing from 50 to 60apiece with a carrying capacity of

three hundredweight are usedfor transport From consumption or theeffects of the long strajn scores oftendie by the way and many others atthe end of the voyage The wagesof the men for conducting a return

are sometimes as high as 5000Not only must the garfla sheiks havegreat courage and endurance but mustbe trustworthy traders and shrewd diplomats of no small caliber Many ofthe sultans and chiefs particularly theTouaregs through whose territories liethe garfla routes exact not only homage but tribute from the garfla sheiksTo bring this tribute within a

sun and secure a safe conductextraordinary skill and L tact

The opportunities for dishonesty afforded the garfla men are many and occasionally men and goods are heardfrom again Charles Wellington
