Old songs are thu best , for they carry us back to the days that were radiant with sentiment and were part of poetry and ro mance , declares the Kansas City Journal. They stir our natures lu their profoundest depths , and , reaching below the callous of our petrescent hearts , play strange ao"H compauiinents upon the long dis used strings of our remembrance/ . Who can resist the subtle potency of those old songs that stop thf world in tear-smiles that we may wave a salutation back through a rift in the storm of years to the youth and maiden of the long ago ? That the old songs are best has been shown in the perennial popu larity of Patti's "Home , Swee ! IIome , " Emma Abbott's "Annie Laurie , " Jennie Liud's "Kathleen Mavourneen , " Christina Neil- son's " 'Way Down Upon the Su wanee Eiver" and Melba's "Com in' Through the Bye. " . We do not always associate these immortal songs with the great singers who hiive included them in their con certs , but the singers are often re membered because of tlfe songs themselves. There are few who can remember the many acrobatic arias of the splendid vocal artists ? who have commanded almost fab ulous sums for their singing , but no one can forget when they yield ed to popular demand for the old songs. Patti or Sembrich or Melba - ba or Calve never had more sincere - / cere appreciation in the suprem- cst moments of her triumphs than when she descended for the time from the classics of foreign com posers and sang the simple love ballads that sent thrills through world-weary hearts and caused withered palms to stir in tremu lous applause. ( HOLDERS OF ODD RECORDS Waltz That Lasted Six and Three Quarter Hours Egg Eater's Capacity Other Marks. ) Those who fail to gain distinc tion through other means seem to seek oddity cf performance , and every little while there appears a challenge from some "champion egg eater" or other freak , says the New York Herald. The 40-quail-in-40-days perform ance has been outdone by a mati who recently ate a whole goose each day for 30 days , the fowl weighing from G to 11 pounds. Other records in this line are GO soft-boiled eggs daily for six days , six quarts of beans in 40 minutes , J f smoking 50 cigars in 11 hourH without once taking a drink. A Paris couple recently waltzed without cessation for G hours , while an English actor danced all the way from London to Norwich. The best club-swinging record has been standing for 17 years , when 388 different combination * were shown in 16 } minutes , 2,311 revolutions being required. A score of 0,434 points was thp result of a 24-hour endurance bil liard match in Paris , the contest ants covering 30 miles in walking around the table , and a violinist has played a composition of 4,800 notes in 4J minutes , averaging 1 ! ) notes a second. Keciting Dante's " "Divine Com- edy"from memory in 20 hours is another queer record , while oth ers have gained fame through making 2,000 ham sandwiches in 19 hours and 40 minutes , dressing ten sheep in 33 minutes , 200 chick ens in 44 minutes and killing and dry picking 103 geese in ten hours. There's a Distinction. The difference between a politi cian and a statesman is about thu same as the difference between a "sport" and a sportsman. Ghlca go Record-Herald.
