An eastern paper says Lake Erie is

A lunactic in Poughkeepsie was re

A Brooklyn man , after the death of
his second wife , has just gone back

The disappearance of the little toe ,

A Pennsylvania postmaster has re
ceived a request to forward 000 mar
riageable young women to Seattle and
Tacoma , to become the wives of as
many anxious and desirable young
men. As it is not specified whether
they are to be sent by registered let
ter or as second class matter , the post
master is taking no action.
One of the New York papers calls
attention to the decline in popularity of
the silk hat. There was a time when
the older citizens of dressy tastes were
Invariably decked with the shiny stove
pipe. But that day has passed and silk
hats have become so rare that they
attract special attention when seen in
public. Exception is made , however ,
in the case of the cheap politicians.
They would forfeit all respect If they
omitted the high hat.
Men who employ child labor , as
well as men who , indolent at home ,
live upon the earnings of their chil
dren , should be smitten with public
condemnation. Lnder the old regime
the slave dealer the man who , in or
der to make money , separated fathers
and mothers and children was social
ly ostracized. There is no small rea
son why men who traffic in their own
children's lives and in the lives of oth
er men's children should escape simi
lar punishment.
Some day we shall probably have to
light for this Monroe doctrine. The
country is practically unauinlous on
the subject and is likely to remain so ,
despite the imbecile , corrupt and revo
lutionary propensities of the South
Americans. We are considering our
own interests aud safety , not theirs. It
is a well accepted principle of internal
law that every nation has a perfect
right to fight against a threatened dan
ger. We could not submit to the es
tablishment of a hostile empire at our
very door.
In his message President Roosevelt
puts the stamp of hearty approval on
the rural free delivery system , and he
.sees more in it than the simple deliver
ing of mail matter to the folks on the
farm. It is one of a host of modern
things that are making life away from
< -ities more pleasant and attractive ;
and some day. it is believed , the con
stant tlow of young men and women
from broad acres to crowded cities will
be checked. There are not enough suc
cessful farmers progressive , wide-
siwake , modern tillers of the soil. How
< : an there be when the sons arc not
willing to follow in the footsteps of
their fathers ? These boyi crave ex
citement , luxuries , better clothing , the
noise and bustle of a busy world. In
; i good many instances these young-
lr-rs of the farm swap pure gold for
( M-oss ; peace for discontent. They even
ijinko less money than could be wrest-
i-cl from the soil at home. They prefer
, to chase dollars in a crowd. They risk
health and morals. There are tempta
tions in .1 city that the farm dwellers
know nothing of any are blessed in
their ignorance. There are little towns

\oung men. while : it the plow are gray-

'f sous , and mourn because of the city
ni < l'iess that has become epidemic. ll
The foundation of American prosperity
Is in the soil. We are still ao agricnl
tural nation , and wise men assert that
we must remain such. Anything that
science , invention and new laws can do
to make life on the farms more attrae-
livo to the young folks will have a
bearing on the future welfare of the
nation. Cheap telephones , rural free
mail delivery and interurban street
railroads are putting the farms in
touch with the test of city life and the
result can only be good.
It is the easiest , thing in the world U
bo a "nobody. " All that is necessary
is to do nothing , or to be like the boy
who , when questioned , by his father as
to why he had resigned his position as
clerk in a store , replied : "The work
was too hard ; I am looking for some
thing easy. " Look out for a "soft
snapDon't get up in the morning
until you feel like it. Don't go to work
until you are obliged to. Don't put
yourself out to meet engagements.
Never mind if you miss a train , or if
you are half an hour late at your work.
If you are at school , don't trouble
about preparing your lessons. "Crib"

When Dr. Lorenz has not been en
gaged professionally his time seems to
have been occupied with submitting to
snap shots , interviews and banquets.
His professional services a re performed
with enthusiasm because his heart is
in his work. He submits to the snap
shots with the utmost good humor ,
likewise to the interview , which he
recognizes as an American practice tc
which he is now fully accustomed. As
to the banquets , that is another story
Upon the.eve . of leaving Baltimore foi
Philadelphia the doctor in an inter

weary of , the banquets he had to en

he liked plain , simple , solid food. "Dc

eating ! Why , it is wonderful ! It is

should try to keep up with Teutonic

end as physical wrecks. All the north

of savagery , partly the effect of cli

huge eaters and the Anglo-Saxons
hardly inferior to them. Much de
pends , after all , upon the indiviclua'
capacity. Dr. Lorenz may not be s
fair specimen of German alimentativo
ness. Perhaps , having a more inti

body than most persons , he appreciates
the blessedness of plain , simple living
Still , it cannot be denied that many oJ
our feasts are Gargantuan ; that , as f
rule , we eat too much and too often
and that our chief way of expressing
our hospitality is in lavishly feeding i
our friends. It is not alone the publit
banquet which we give the distin
guished guest , which sometimes he
wrestles with successfully , as die

each must have its appropriate menu
and the holidays cannot be fittinglj

Perhaps there is no way of reforming
our eating habits , but , all the same , as
Dr. Lorenz says. "It is wonderful ! T'

The hour was on ns : whore the man ?
The "fateful sands unfaltering ran ,
And up the way of tears
He caine Into the years ,
Onr pastoral captain. Forth he came ,
As one that answers to his name ;
Nor dreamed how high his charge ,
Ills work how fair and large
To set the stones back In the wall
Le&t the divided house should fall.
And peace from men depart ,
nope and the childlike heart.
We looked on him ; " 'Tls ho. " we said ,
"Come crownless and unheralded ,
The shepherd who will keep
The flocks , will fold the sheep. "
Unknlghtly , yes : yet 'twas the mien
Presaging the Immortal scene.
Some battle of His wars
Who sealeth up the stars.
Nor would he take the past between
His bands , wipe valor's tablets clean ,
Commanding greatness wait
Till he stand at the gate ;
Not he would cramp to one small head
The awful laurels of the dead ,
Time's mighty vintage cup ,
And drink all honor up.
No flutter of the banners bold
Borne by the lusty sons of old ,
The haughty conquerors
Set forward to their wars ;
Not his their blare , their pageantries.
Their poal , their glory , was not his ;
Humbly he came to keep
The flocks , to fold the sheep.
The need comes not without the man ;
The prescient hours unceasing ran ,
And up the way of tears
He came into the years ,
pur pastoral captain , skilled to crook
The spear into the pruning hook ,
The simple , kindly man ,

f Ait Seiina's ' Valentine I
postman's whistle was clear
THE shrill that morning , the 14th of
February , and as he lifted the
knocker on Aunt Seiina's narrow green
iloor the sound echoed through tho house
and reached the ears of the little lady ,
\vho hastily threw aside the brush she
was using and , shaking the dust from
her long print apron , opened the door
with a pleasant smile.
The smile vanished , however , and a
look of surprise took its place as she was
given a large square envelope , pure
white , and tied with dainty pink ribbons
.nd quaint little bows , which even her
nimble fingers found it hard to untie ; but
.1 little later it was spread out on the
table before her , a Valentino , all laco and
flowers and satin bows , with two angels
bearing up a line of love.
Anut Seiina's face was a study. In
deed , she made a picture sitting there by
the old fireside trying to solve this mys
tery , and when evening came and when
she went to feed her chickens and dog
Rover , her only companions , she was still
asking herself over and over :
"Who in all the wide world can care
enough for me to send me such a mes
sage of love ? "
Aunt Seiina's life had been a quiet one ;
her mother had died while she was a
child , and , with the help of an old nurse ,
she had been housekeeper for her father
and one brother , older than herself , and
when this brother married she was Aunt
Selina , not only to his children , but to
their little friends as well , for her sunny
nature made her a favorite with them
all. When her father died she was left
with the cottage and little garden and
enough money to live comfortably in a
quiet way.
But , though GO years of nge. she had
never had a lover , so now as her mind
ran over the gentlemen whom she knew
she could think of no one who would
send her a valentine. Still there was the
Baysvillu postmark , the town where she
lived , and once again she went through
her list of acquaintances.
"There's Deacon Hayes but he is so
old and gray it can't be he. And Carlos
Brown , he sits in the pew at my riirht.
but he is really too poor to think of
taking a wife. "
For , some way. Aunt Selina felt that
it meant that , else why should one send
so costly a valentine to an old maid ?
Once she thought of asking the post
man , and then laughed at the idea. As
if he would know. He was a bachelor
of middle ago. and rumor said that he
had no liking for ladies' society , owing to
some experience before coming to Bays-
ville.
ville.Aunt
Aunt Solinn thought that his manner
bore out this statement , as he had made
few friends and seemed not to care for
the cheerful "Good morning" which she
gave him whenever he stopped at her
door.
It must be confessed that when the
next Sunday came , Aunt Solinn was un
usually careful of her dress. She wore
her new black silk , and her wavy brown
hair was neatly coiled beneath the small i I
velvet bonnet , which'she had freshened I
up with a new satin bow , for she felt
sure that her valentine friend would be
at church that morning , and a.s she en
tered the color rose in her fair face , for
ahe felt that the deacon had spoken
more kindly than usual , as she came
up the gravel walk , Mr. Brown had tak
en' her hand in greeting and 'Squire Wat-
kins , her father's old friend , had in
quired for her health.
As sho went back to her quiet home
she wondered if a brighter future ware
store for her , something besides the
loneliness that had been her lot for many
vears.
Time passed , and at length , hearing
.lothing more from the sender of hor val
entine , she decided that either he did not
wish to be known , or had not the cour-
nge to carry the matter farther , so the
little token was laid away , the one ro-
nance : of Aunt Salina's life.
One day a boy came running to hor
loor with a message , which read :
"I am very sick ; will you como to me ?
Sfour postman. JOHN MOORE.
"Bleak House. Baysvillc. "
Yes , Aunt Salinn would go , she was
Uways ready to help the suffering , but
vhen she entered the room where John
Moore lay , the nurse came quickly to
ward her , telling her that he had not
ong to live , and she thought the same
vhen she saw what a wreck the fever
lad made of the once strong man.
Perhaps it was his constitution that
rought him through , or it may have
een Aunt Seiina's cheerful face and geu-
le ways , for John Moore did not die ,
ilthough it was many weeks before he
ould travel his rounds again , and dur-
ng that time Aunt Selina learned how
nuch he had cared fcw : her , and that it

way , help him to gain her love , for it
was not true , the report which the gos
sips of Baysville had brought agains.
him , but more a reserved naturevhicl. .
had made him seem indifferent to those
who would like to have been his friends.
Aunt Selina soon found that he was a
noble , true-hearted man , one sho could
trust with her whole love and life , and
when he asked :
"Will you share the home I have made
ready with the thought of you ? " she did
not refuse , but n little later went quiet
ly into the church which the children
had filled with flowers , nnd when sho saw
the swoet blossoms and realized that all
this had been done for hor , tears of hap
piness filled her eyes and she thought :
"How fair is life and all changed for
me by the aid of a valentine. " Indian

LINCOLN'S LIFE.
Characteristics of the Great Emanci
pator a Told in Paragraphs.
The familiar cabin of Lincoln's child
hood could more properly be termed a
camp , for , instead of being made of logs ,
it was built of polos , was about fourteen
feet square and had no floor.
In youth he was an ardent advocate
of temperance , and delivered discourses
| on cruelty to animals and the horrors of
, war. lie liked stump-speaking much
more than the ax he had to wield so
often.
Among the first situations ho obtained
after coming of age and striking out for
'
, himself was as a Oat-boat hand to Now
j j Orleans. The slave auction he witness-
j j cd thero bore the ripe fruit of after y ars.
It is said that then nnd there , in May ,
1831. the iron against shivery entered
his soul.
Tall. lanky , sallow , dark and slightly
stooping he was in appearance , boin a
muscular G feet 4 at 17. His dress in
those days was all tanned deer hide. coat , i
trousers and moccasins. The luxury of i
wearing garments of fur and wool , dyed !
with the juice of the butternut or wiiite
walnut , was just being adopted in his
neighborhood , nnd Lincoln was not a
person to tako the lend in elegance.
Lincoln had very littlo actual school
education , his first goings , at the ago of J
10 , were in Indiana , to a woman named
Hazel Dorsoy. He was often tnken from
school to work or hire out. At 14 he
went ngnin to Andrew Crawford's school , '
nnd at 17 he saw the last of his school
days under a man named Swnney. All
tho education he obtained afterward was
through his own exertions. "Education
defective" was bis own definition given
to tho compiler of the Dictionary of Con- i
gress , .although it was not a pleasant
thought to him.
Boing raised in n community suporsti- j
fious in the extreme. Lincoln believed in ! ;
supernatural portents nil his life. Fri- ,
day he considered fntnl to every enter
prise , and. ns it turned out , well ho
might. He had many dreams which he
considered forecnsts of coming events ,
once sending a telegram to his wife to
tnke away "Tad's" pistol , ns ho had had
a bad dream about him. A good dream
presnged tho victories of Antiotnm. Mur-
frecsboro , Gettysburg nnd Yicksburg. He
related an ill one just before his assas
sination.
Too Many Bills.
"Lord Needmonneigh asked me if he
could be my valentine. " ?
"And you told him "
"That there was too much postage due

HOUSE IN WHICH LINCOLN
DIED G01NS TO DECAY.
The rapid decay of the house in Wash
ington in which Abraham Lincoln died is
attracting public attention , and it is prob
able that something will be done to pre
serve it. It contains the Oldroyd col
lection of Lincoln relics , nnd until re
cently was in tho care of private tenants ,
who charged a small admission fee to
visitors. Now it is in the caro of n so
ciety , hut nothing has been dono to pre-
sorvo or ropnir tho walls or tho interior.
The house is directly across the street
from tho site of Ford's Theater , where
Lincoln was shot.
LINCOLN'S NARROW ESCAPE.
Fiendish Plot to Inoculate Him vrlth
the Smallpox.
Tho demand for an additional body
guard around tho White House recalls an
incident of the civil war within tho mem
ory of many residents. During the excit
ing period of 'Gl great foars were enter
tained for the safety of tho President ,
and every precaution was taken to insure
his personal protection.
One morning there appeared at the
White House a woman , closely veiled ,
demanding nn immediate interview with
Mr. I/nc'oIn. Approaching Messenger
Perkins , who gnanlt tho door of Mr.
Lincoln's private otriu > . the visitor made
known her request and pleaded earnestly
that sho ho admitted to a personal inter
view. Tho doorkeeper's orders wore , how
ever , very strict , mid finding hor eloquence
all in vain , she finally compromised by
confiding hor mcp.sago Jo the courteous
but firm omployo. Taking him to one
side , tho veiled lady took both his hands
in hors and tenderly rubbed them as she
extracted a promise that he would imme
diately deliver her request to the Presi
dent. Perkins was almost overcome by a
most peculiar odor that appeared to ema
nate from his companion , and hastened to
got rid of IHT without creating a scene.
No sooner had he accomplished this than
ho confided to ono of the household the
effect produced upon him while in con
versation with the importunate visitor.
A physician who was present promptly di
vined the truth and instituted a search
for tho woman , whon it was learned that
she had driven rapidly away in a carriage ,
and all trace was lost. Perkins was im
mediately ordered to return to his home
and await developments.
AVithin tho usual period he was taken
ill with ono of the worst cases of viru
lent smallpox on record , and for weeks
lay at the point of death. Upon his re
covery the faithful mossongor , whose de a
votion to duty doubtless saved the life of
the President , was appointed by Mr. Lin
coln to a permanent position on the cleri
cal force of the War Department , which
office he has continued to hold up to date ,
being one of the most efficient clerks on Is
tho rolls.
Man. of the People.
The birthday of Abraham Lincoln may
well recall the principles which he rep
resented , for which he labored and for
which he endured a martyrs death ,
rhere is no more popular figure in Amer
ican history than that of Abraham Lin-
join. He was pre-eminently a man of
the people. Sprung from the people , he
always remained one of them. Men ad-
tnired George Washington , but it was
in admiration mingled with awe. The d
people both loved and revered Lincoln. s <
President or rail splitter , he was the same a
lain American citizen , in whom hon- n
sty was an instinct , and whose patriot- '
ism was part of his very soul. Charles

JOHNNY CANUCK IN WAR.
The Canadian Soldier in Africa Ex
hibited Some Br.rr Traits.
To South Africa Great Britain sent
Tommy Atkins , Australia forwarded-
Tommy Cornstalk and Canada dis
patched Johnny Canuck. Much has.
been said regarding the merits of the-
fightiug material raised by the empire
and nothing save praise has come our
way. We are , therefore , not in search-
of compliments , nor do we wish to-
draw any invidious distinctions. That
Canada did its duty and did it well is-
sufTieient for the average Canadian. In.
other quarters , however , the part taken-
in the war by Johnny Canuck and oth
er Britons is still a subject of com
ment.
A story of the war , written by an-
Australian , Corporal Adams , gives the-
impression of a man in the ranks. The-
writer , .who speaks highly of the work
of the 'Asurralians , concedes that the-
empire produced two kinds of soldiers
that were even better. The best In his
judgment , were the Canadians , and
next came the New Zealanders. Of the-
Canadians Mr. Adams speaks in this
" actions cool fe
wise : "Their dashiug ,
rocity , quiet 'slimness' and guile-less
verneukery' of the Boers themselves
and their pure hard cheek rendered
them famous and fascinating wherever
they went. " As an Illustration of the
"verneukery" of the Canadians , an in
cident in which they trapped the tricky
zarps , or Johannesburg police , by
adopting the Boer tactics , is cited.
The Canadians held a strong position
on the edge of a ridge which the zarps
were trying to capture. After a desul
tory engagement the Canadians rose
aud ostentatiously retired. They gallop
ed past a gap in the ridge , through
which the Boers could see them in full
retreat , but under cover of the hill they
returned to their old positions , where
thoy silently awaited the pursuing
Boers. It was not often that the cotin-
tn'inen of slippery Dewet were caught
by such a ruse , says the Toronto Mail
and Empire , but we are informed that
in this instance is was entirely success
ful. The Boers advanced until at 200
yards the Canadians opened a deadly
and effective fire , before which the sup
posed victors retired with heavy loss
and in havoc. Thus they were , in the
vernacular of the veldt , "verner'-ed"
by the Canadians , for whom , as they
have subsequently testified , they ac'
quired a wholesome dread.
ABOUT THE TIPPING EVIL.
Americans Have Increased Cos-t 01
Travel in Orient.
'Wherever Americans have tmveled
in the Orient they seem to have ex
erted a bad influence over the natives
in the way of raising prices , " said Mr.
Ilot'el , as he boarded the dougkoug
Mam just prior to her sailing for San
Francisco. "Go to India , Singapore ,
Hongkong , Manila and Japanese cities
aud you will find that the Americans
have turned things topsy-turvy. "
Mr. Ilofel is returning to St. Louis
after a year in the Orient. His one
complaint is the m , uer in which
American tourists have caused prices
to soar skyward. The fault with Amer
icans is that wherever they go they at
tempt to "show off" and their habit of /
tipping far in excess of benefits receiv
ed has increased even that bano of
traveling. Europeans generally do not
exceed a tip of one-tenth of their bill
in cafes and other places of service.
On the other hand , Americans tip en
tirely out of all proportion to the cost
of things received.When an American
goes into a cafe and his bill amounts to
50 or 75 cents in American money , he
tells the waiter to keep the change of
a dollar. People following in the wake
of these extravagant tipsters usually
find out to their sorrow that they inns't
pay equally well or put up with poor
service.
The ricksha runners even have made
up their minds that when an American
appears among them he must be mulct
ed. They raise the prices and then
expect tips as well. In Manila tho
cocheros , instead of being the obse
quious jehus of the old Spanish days ,
have now become independent beimrs.
and if they feel that they will not get
more than the regulation fare , refuse
to accept a passenger on t'he ground
that they are engaged.
"To say that one is an American. ' '
said Mr. Hofel , according to the Hono
lulu Advertiser , "is to announce that
you are to stand and be robbed in
broad daylight. The servile people
which we used to know in tho Orient
are not so now in the case of Ameri
cans. European travelers , ho-wever ,
escape from this condition of affairs !
and they are treated with as much re
spect as formerly. "
All in His Eye.
"Hi , theref shouted the customs offi
cer , supiciously. "Why are you hold
ing your handkerchief to your face ? '
"There's a bit of cinder in * '
my eye ,
answered the returning tourist.
"Ah ! foreign substance in the eye !
