Ulalae'a) JlesairaBaaBBi iiokOailr Qaeetleis mt Methed. Detroit Fwe rresa. Tbe memory of tbe just Is blessod ; so Is the memory of an adroit politician ; at least it la blessed good thing to have. The faculty of associating a face with its owners name, ana to recall tbe circumstances under which It was last aeen ; to bring up a whole set of Ideas about tbe talk tbe politician than had; what tho politician said, and what the man said, la often mere valuable to one in politics than honesty, learning and state manual p. To be remembered by a distingnisbeu notorious man wbo knows so many people, and whose mind must be full of all sorts of things la a kind of flattery hard to resist. It means that you are not a very inngniucant person after all. or yon would not have made such an impression upon the busy and eager poli tician. There must have been something about you that made him remember not only your name but what you did or said. For the moment, at least, you forget that this is only a special faculty in this man, a trick of the mind which enables bim to remember your neighbor, who may be much stupider and less remarkable than you, just as well as he remembers yourself; that be will go to the nest houso and greet the wife there witb the same cordiality and pick out the children just as correctly and ask how that flue baby is do ing, with just as much heartiness. In other words that it is not a special mark of inter est in you at all, but only a kind of sleight-of-hand performance which makes you think yon are a finer man than other people think you are, or, perhaps, than you know yourself to bef It is of a piece with other mental tricks of the same sort. Rome can remember dates; some birthdays; some have a special faculty for places, and need to be in a town or woods or on a mountain but once, in order to be perfectly familiar with them. Borne horse men become so expert that they recognize borses with the greatest ease, though they may only have seen them trotting along the road or careering over the pastures. Herders become so expert that they have been kuowii to distinguish their own cattlo iu a herd at au incredible distance away. But horses, cattle, mountains, rocks, streets, rivers, buildings and forest cannot be nattered by this expert faculty. They have no votes or influence. It may be flattering to the indi vidua, but it Is not flattering to the community that this way of tickling men's vanity governs citizens so much in their choice of the man to make or execute their laws. Yet very sensible men are often af fected in their judgements by the personal attitude which a candidate "puts ou If he shows that he remembers you, and re minds you where he last saw you, half a dozen years ago, and asks whether you bought the bouse or sold tbe farm you were talking about at that time, forthwith you are apt to think that man better fitted to tax you and appropriate your money, or make laws for you than another man who may have many other virtues, but lacks this one. Mr. Blaine has tbe reputation of being en lowed with this gift. A story has been lately n the rounds, attributed to Mr. Tharman, in which Mr. Blaine is represented as greeting An Ohio farmer after several years' Absence and asking him If he ''had broken that colt," which he was driving when Blaine had seen him pre viously. This story is met by a direct con tradiction of Mr. Blaine's ability to recall faces. According to this authority, it is an Idea assiduously cultivated by Mr. Blaine, but as a matter of fact there are few public men who have poorer recollection of names find faces than be. The belief in this faculty if his is founded on what has been industri ously said about his possession of it not on the faculty itself. A witness of the incident testifies that once, in a drawing-room car, he saw Mr. Blaine ask the conductor the name of a gentleman near him. When he learned the name the statesman arose, ad dressed the gentleman by name, left a few moments, consulted a memorandum book, and coming back related a circumstance oc curring at a previous meeting, and which the witness believes was recorded in the little book. But even if this were true, it should make very little difference. If a man is a great statesman because be can tickle you by refer ring to the memorandum in his brain, he it just as great a statesman as if he flattered you by consulting a well-arranged and well indexed note book. It Is only a question of method. His votes are just as sound, his -peech just as eloquent, his public character" as honest and noble, whether Ue employs the means for making you feel good which nature gave him or the means which his own ingenuity with paper and pencil invented. In either case the method came from the man's brain, and ought not really to affect his reputation for political sagacity, adroitness, courage or whatever else most distinguishes him. Ilia interest in you is just as ardent and intense, whether be resorts to his memory or his mem orandum. In neither case does he give you a moment's thought after he has effected his object. All he wants is to make you think that you are a very important person iu his eyes, and that your remarkable self has left an undying impression upon his great mind. Thought They Were Antelope. Arkansaw Traveler. The Arkansaw cow is perhaps the most athletic animal of her species. She may be reduced in flesh, but her horns are always in a flourishing condition. She seems to have been intended more for the production of born than milk. Some time ago a party of gentlemen from New Tork came to this state for the purpose of engaging in an extensive deer hunt. They went out among tbe hills and turned loose their hounds. A wild and exciting chase im mediately began. The gentlemen were in hick; they had not dared to wish for such easily acquired sport. The deer fled along the hillside, and strange to say, kept in tbe paths. The ex cited dogs howled and exerted every nerve, but they could not catch the wild antelope. Along toward evening a farmer came upon the party and angrily exclaimed : "I'm a good mind to shoot you fellows. You ain't got no sense." "We did not know that this land was posted," replied the leader of the party. 'Posted tbe devil f" vociferated the farmer, "you are chasing my cows." (4 he Kever Was. Marathon Independent. "Charley Podington was in here last night and mide me miserable for a conple of hours," said Miss Nibleting to her bosom friend the other morning. "Dont yon like hirar "No, I detest him." "Why, he just told me as I met him on tbe street that be called, and you said you never were more delighted to meet him.'' "Well, what of that I I never was." MlillU ADVEETISrsa. How Printed Advertlaeanento Converted lato Lifelike ateeaes. Few Vork Sun. As our reporter farmed from the Fifth avenue down Fourteenth street tbe other day ha saw a crowd gazing at tbe second story of a bouse. Behind a broad window witb two largu panes of glass appeared the objects which ware attracting the, attention of tbe crowd. & hind tbe lower pane was a broad piece of canvass on which the name of a summer hotel was painted in large black let ters; behind the upper glass was a scene which gave in - good perspective an idea of the bouse and surroimJing . It seems a tttcturoBiQUO sunuBtAr rosora ri? of the nou-tf su-etctied a ras of tCi 'saouataias. Some of too peaks were ee kh that fleecy white clouds railed their summits. From the hotel a path lad through a sloping lawn to a lake. Ko far tbe picture represented all that was described on the canvas underaeeth, except the announcement that there was good flnhlno- in the lake. Suddenly, however, ere I this was rsaiiaaxl A man was- seen pattta ul a ooar tn ww jauio. " stoppod rowing shipped his oars, lifted a fishing rod from the bottom of the boat, and cast tbe line Into tho water. Then he re mained motionless as if Intently watching the line. With a sudden jerk of the rod be landed a fish in the boat. This was repeated several times, until at last he appeared to have causrbt fish enough. lie put down his rod, grasped the oars, and pulled back to shore. Tbe last seen of him ho was walking toward tbe hotel witb a string of fish. Kuddenly the canvass dropped. In its place behind the lower pane appeared an other, which called upon all people to consult only a certain physician In case of illness. Above this the scene represented a New York street. Among the bouses was one with i physician's sign.' An old man nearly ben double came hobbling down tbe street on a crutch until be got to tbe physician's house and rang tbe 111. A pleasant-looking man, presumably tbe physician, let him in. After a while a boy with an arm In a sling came from the other direction, and rang. This time the door was opened by a girl, probably because tbe physician was busy attending to the first patient. This patient was followed by a pale and debiltated-looking individual, and he by another, who appeared to be cough ing and in the last stages of consumption, These also were admitted by the glrL After a while tbe door opened again, and out came the old man, firm and erect, briskly twirling his cane. A little later the boy came out, but bis arm was no longer in tho sling. On the contrary he swung it freely as he walked along. Tbe pale and debilitated-looking man made his exit whistling. . Tho consump tive who had seemed to bo tottering oa tbe brink of tbe grave came out witb the bloom of roses on his cheeks. Presto change 1 Tbe canvas went down and the streets disappeared. The name of a theatre was displayed behini tho upper. A horse car stopped In front of tbe theatre, which every passenger entered. A stage drove up with the same results. Then oaniagos and coupes halted at the theatre, which seemed to be attracting everybody In the city. Fin ally a sign appeared, "No mors standing room.' Ar -'her change. This time it was a bi cycle advertisement, and . bicyclers were speeding their steel racers on the track above. As tbe rep rter started across the street to inspect matters more closely, Sullivan and Mitchell were having a fierce set-to. Entering the room on the second floor, the reporter saw near the window a light trestle work. Rouud about were lying strios of sunsets, bine skies, storm clouds, and all varieties of heavens; pasteboard men and women, witb numerous strings attached to their limbs; cars, stages, houses on a small scale, all the paraphernalia of a theatrical scene were there. T' ong, broad strips of pasteboard lay on the or. Over them stood a man with a large brush, which he dipped into a pot of gray paint and then applied to the paste board, making a line of grayish bouses and churches. Then he painted in black dots for windows and doors, adding a strip of green and yellow for grass and a road. "It's done roughly, you Bee," he paid, "but it looks all right from below. It makes a difference whether you're near a thing, or stand on the street and eae it in the second story through a pane of glass. Fine work doesnt tell at that distance." "What are you going; to rep resent nowP the reporter asked of the man wbo was just changing the canvas. "Tbe storming of Alexandria," be replied. The reporter watched him arranging the set of pasteboard over the trestle work. He suspended a strip of lurid sky from the black bar. A littlo forward and below was another bar with upright bars at either end. On the bar and above tbe upi ighta he put a strip representing the city. Further toward the window were two other upright bars. Against these be placed two forts. On a cross bar a little lower below be hung a strip rep resenting water. The trestlework was a small stage in scaffolding. The whole sloped down toward the window. One man took two pasteboard " ironclads with portholes, and lighted a cigar. As he moved the ironclads just behind the strip representing water he puffed smoke through the portholes. The other man then held a piece of burning paper behind Alexandria. "Do you fit up these advertisements in shop windows f he was asked. "Yes. But we think it to the advertiser's advantage to have his advertisement appear in this window, because we are on one of the most crowded thoroughfares of the city. Ws expect to do a large business during election times." "How sol" . "We shall represent the candidate run ning in opposition to our advertiser as being pelted by the voters with eggs and potatoes." "How do you get your advertisemontsf "We read those in the papers, and if wo find one which can be well imitated by mimicry we call the advertiser's attention to our method." A STOBY OP 1861. How the Oanlsk Press was Brought to the Support of the Calon Cause. Cor. Inter Ocean. At tho outbreak of the American rebellion, Tbe London Times was almost omnipotent in the influencing of public opinion in Denmark on American affairs. In fact the commercial and financial relations between Denmark and England are very close. The Times took special pains to make it appear that the Con federates were fighting for liberty, and de served the sympathy of the Liberals of Europo, and that the Union men of the north were the oppressors. Mr. De Bille, late Dan ish minister to ATasbington, earnestly be lieved such to be tbe case and so repre sented. At that time the Danish senti ment was so generally in accord with the southern states that the representative of Che Confederacy, and even some of the rebel cruisers, were attracted to Copenhagen. Bradford Wood, a venerable ex-member of congress, was at that time American minister at the Court of the Dane. He tried faithfully, but unavailingly, to counteract tbe British influence. It was at that time that Mr. Schneider, of your city, formerly editor of the German organ of the northwest, appeared upon tbe charge. Had he carried tbe wand of a magician, he could not have wrought a greater change, or done it more swiftly. He had been appointed by Mr. Lincoln consul to Elsinore, one of the principal shipping points of Denmark, with the - special understanding that he was to devote himself to influencing the press - In favor of tbe Union, and to changing public sentiment among the Danes. Soon after his arrival at Copenhagen he called on Mr. Do Bille,' explained the situation in the United States, and from a copy of tbe iiaper which he bad, The Staats Zeitung, I believe it was, he showed that the Scandinavians in America had all taken sides with tho Union, and that a Danish military company in Chicago, under Captain Frese,had joined a German regiment, tbe Twenty-fourth Illinois, and thus snowed that the chronic animosity between Germans and Donee had been forgotten in enthusiasm for the cause of the Union. - This fact and similar facts brought forward by Mr. Schnei der convinced the warm-hearted De Bille, and the very next morning, be- opened tbe bat teries of the DagrUadati to tbe asrnnlshrrveinft of all Copenhagen, sgatnst Tbe London Times ana toe rotuMssatao.

Ehneldar to try to cspCcre tbe governnjeot paper and organ of tbe aristocracy, The BFirHrrnke Tidenda After consultation with tbe American minis ter, Mr. Bradford Woodjt was learned that the brother of the proprietor of the paper - was a banker at Copenhagen, and very anxious to iwmire the patronage of the .American lega t'x ' Tl Ixuikrr VrtflKT V-a?ea. aad charts the tons L'j la frrr cf ts Union, the coveted pi-oncc was ttowed.

Here is an Idea for tbe tens of thousands of nature-loving city people wbo are rearing paste-board villas on every sea beach and mountain top. Tbe ubiquitous Queen Anne cottage is becomming almost as much of a horror to the traveler as the frantio adjura tion to "Buy Jones's Uendrako Fills." Why not let Queen Anne sleep, and build log houses A log house Is warm In winter and cool . in summer. It is unpretentious, cheap, and, if modeled after the ancient Nor wegian dwelling, highly picturesque. Timber houses from Norway are now imported into England, the abundance of forests and low rates of labor making thorn cheap. Tho beams of the second story project over the lower, and the ends ' of these heavy timbers with the arches of the porches and roofs are carved heavily. The entire bouse is constructed of wood, tho wainscoting being of tho richly tinted native deals, and the floors of oak, polished and varnished. But Instead of tho flimsy card-board edifice in which Americans with their inexhaustible wealth of forests de light, the Norwegian house Is broad, solid, richly carved, its varied exterior giving fine effects of light and shade, and when set among trees it offers tbe type of a beartsome, enduring home. - The Gentleman With the Thlsi Grip sack. New York World. He was a greasy looking citizen. His grip sack was so thin that he could have boned a ham with it. As be laid It on a Sixth avenue baker's counter he remarked to tbe young girl who was tending bar: " 'Swarm day." "It are," she responded, as she picked off the end of a round-heart. "How much is pies?" "Twenty cents apiece." "I don't want a piece, I want a whole one." "All the big bugs have gone to Europe I" he continued, "and I'm afraid 111 have to go too. Do you see that grip! Full of bonds! I'm sorry I did it, but if I give myself up they'll lock me up in the Fifth Avenue hotel, and I could never stand the disgrace. How much Is doughnuts?" and he wiped his nose on his kalsomined sleeve. "Two cents." "How much is crullersf "Cent." "Gimme a pound, an' two pounds of that cake witb all tbe bugs in it. Also put me up three ov tbem red pies with tbe oourt-plaster across them," They were wrapped up for him. "D. n't let anybody touch that grip until I put these things in the carriage." Nobody touched it until the baker came in a couple of hours later and kicked it all around the block. Anecdote of Mothers. New York World. A Philadelphia bill-printer relates this an ecdote of Sot hem: "A lady in bis company who played a very minor part gave herself an extraordinary amount of airs at rehearsal. So tbem came here and ordered a bill to be printed with tbe lady's name starred in large type, 'supported by the following ladies and gentlemen,' and then followed tbe names of the company, ending up with Sothern's in tbe smallest type of all Tbe bill was hung up in the theatre and tbe young lady's pride came down several pegs." Into the Land of Xod. New York World. "Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep" sleepily repeated a little Dracut girl after her mother one night not long ago Then she stopped. "I if " her mother suggested. The little one hesitated a moment, half opened her heavy eyelids, and then continued, paus ing long between tho words: "If I had a cow that gave such mlk Td dress her in tha finest silk, Amenl" A Charity Boy With qneer Ideas Milwaukee Sentinel. Have you, kind reader, in your store of memories a strain that sounds of adversity, a chord that was touched by woe? Has your mind swayed in the trembling balance of dispair, and has your heart ached under tbe ruthless lashing of disappointment? Do not let your answer be a light scoff or a sympa thetic yes, but grant roe my request and look at that boy in the street, as be stands on the curb of the gutter with his bag beside bim half full of chips picked up In the alleys and corners. He is poorly clad, and barefooted, and dirty, and his eyes evade yours. - Is it shame, or depravity, or both, that causes him to shrink from you? You say he is contented, he does not know any better. . You under estimate your image in soul and body, who could look upon well-dressed children and not see tbe difference in enjoyment and privi leges. But he is going; let me speak to him. "My young friend, why do you gather chips in this mannerf ' "To cook with.' ''Precisely. But are there no friends or good people wbo will assist you kindly?" "Oh, yesl There are the Associated Chari ties, who always give mother plenty of good advice." "Dont they season their good will witb something more substantial P "They tell her how to live on 10 cents a day, and to help herself." "Very good; but don't they prevent in that way many lazy people from supporting them selves in idleness I" "They may for all I know, but Pm sure we never got any too much before we ever beard of them. When we were first told that they had appointed an agent, it was said, and we thought that we could get something every week, bnt instead of that they encourage us to work and get .our own living. Mother cant do it all herself and have me go to school, but if I belp her we manage to squeeze through." "Don't you like to work and help your mother" "That isn't It at all If I could go to school she would be much more pleased than she is at seeing me help her. There are lots of poor people wbo wont ask for belp, and they're the best off. People that are rich and well fixed don't know what it is to be poor, and their advice isn't good for much. One who has even been poor hardly ever thinks to give advice instead of money, because be knows of how little good it is. Then I suppose many of these people wbo want to be so good wouldn't think of giving mother any mor than her dues for a bard day's work of wash ing, just because they say she is poor and hasn't got the right to save a cent. I should think that where poor folks save some of the money that is given tbem that they are tbe ones who should get it. But I hear that when anyone saves a cent, no more spondulix there I guess if we want to live we must take care of ourselves, besides having an agent come and see that we do it to every hnrlva a tUf ar " : - ' A fcnlek Jump.
