All About George EliOt's Husband.
WOman's Journal.


Mr.. John Cross is an excellent man
of forty-two years, rich, and an old and
devoted friend Of the Leweses. Mr..
Lewis was very fond of him. He lived
close by the Leweses county place, and
came in and out like an attached re-
lation. He admired Mrs. Lewes pro-
foundly, and always said he would do
anything in the world for her. He is
not an intellectual companion, like Mr..
Lewes, but a strong, solid, reliable man,
who gives you at once a sense of con-
fidence, a thoroughly reliable, kind, up
right, steadfast man "a thorough sup
port, such a man as any woman would
be thankful to have near her as a con-
slant and devoted friend. Nothing is
more wise and more happy than that
an invaluable friend should be allowed
to supply the daily care and affection
ate companionship which his admira-
ton and his affection both made him
long to give. And Mrs. Lewes is not
the woman, with her tender and yield
ing nature $50 unconsciously sketched
in Maggie Tulliver and Dorothea) to
resist the soothing support of such de-
voted affection.

A Singing Rebuff.
Australasian.

A swain who was Tilted by young
lady in Wellington, had his revenge.
She wrote to him and requested that
he would be good enough to return the
lock of hair which he had obtained
from her. His reply was brief and to
the point. Rummaging his trunk he
collected heap of tresses, culled from
various sources during his love-making
career, and forwarded them in bun.
BILE to his deceitful fair, inclosing note
to the effect that he had really forgot
ten which was hers, but she might Sc
lect it from those forwarded and return
the rest at her earliest convenience.
This he considered singing rebuff,
and SO it was with vengeance. The
lady is now on visit to some country
relations.

ciety FavOrite and Indefatigible
Correspondent.
Mr.. Randalls habits and daily life
arc very simple He is great worker,
and probably no man in either house
of congress works as many hours day
as he. He takes great care of himself,
eats moderately and simply, uses no
wines or liquors, retires early, sleeps
long and enjoys as Il consequence per
feet health. Mr. Randall goes little in
to society, and he entertains very little
at home in consequence of his small
and limited means. He generally has
two or three receptions during the win
ter, and to these he invites certain
number Of congressman, diplomats
and other officials for one night and a
different set for the next until the list is
exhausted. Mrs. Randall has her re-
ception days every week and is assisted
by her daughter Anna, a well-balanced,
accomplished girl, who has become a
great favorite in society. The speaker
is not what may be called a bookish
| man. He Is q man of affairs rather
than books. But no man in congress
keeps a closer watch on its business.
lie masters every question that comes
up, and when he became chairman of
the appropriation committee he sur
priscd everybody with his familiarity
with the business
He has few books in his house but
when a great question comes up he
goes to the congressional library and
has a great pile Of books sent to his
home which he studies till he knows all
about the subject. Every hour in the
day is occupied and his private CORE
spondence is enormous. He writes
most of his letters himself, and al
though he keeps secretary he is tsill
the busiest man about the capitol The
speaker seems to prefer little rooms to
work in. His work-room in his house
is small and cramped and in the capt.
tol he has the funniest little box down
stairs which you could never find.
When he is in this box nobody is sup
posed to know where he is. He goes
there to work, and he never leaves it
two minutes before the hour for calling
the house to order. Many no doubt
suppose that the gilded, heavy gaudy
apartment called the Speakers Room
in the rear of the speakers lobby is
where he does his work. Nothing of
the sort. The speaker never goes into
that room except by accident. It is
his only in name, but the little room
about the size of a squirrels cage, is
his sure enough, and in it he works like
a squirrel if a squirrel does work.

country, and which of these elements will
control its policy. Iappeal to you as bust
ness men, am / going too far in saving
that all this is dark, and that in voting the
democratic ticket you will take gambling
chance, and that chance being rather
against you? Are you prepared, tax-pay-
ers OF the country, to take that gambling
chance under such circumstances?
But one thing is certain, that the demo-
cratic party, in its fashion, will reform the
civil service. That it will certainly do; it
will do it according to an old democratic
principle, ito the victors belong the
spoils." That principle is of democratic
origin, and the democratic party has adj
hered to it with fidelity worthy of the
best cause. Other parties were infected
by it., but the democratic party may claim
the glory of its paternity and its most un-
swervlng advocacy. 1t may abandon any
other principle, but not that. If there
ever was democrat, either at the head of
the organization or in the ranks, who has
proved recreant to that great doctrine, and
made proclamation of his opposition to it,

interviewer with the traditions of that.par-

could be abandoned without destroying the
Partys existence. That great word, the
cohesive power of public plumber" had it's

democracy. And, indeed, when we look at
the heterogeneous elements to-day, it is
not easy to imagine any other cohesive
power which could hold them together.

THE BACHELOR SALE.

From the Mountaineer.
/ dreamed dream i'll the midst of my slum-
Der.
And as fast as dreamed it was coined into
numbers:
My thoughts ran along such beautiful meter,
Pm sure meier saw any poetry sweeter.
1t seemed that Il law had been recently made,
laid,
And in order to make them all willing to
marry,
The tax was rs large rs man could wei
carry.
The bachelors grumbled and said twas no
use,
Twas cruel Injustice and horr'id abuse
And declared that to save their own hearts
blood from splitting,
OF such vile tax they would neverpay shil-
ling
But the rulers determined their scheme to
pursue,
So they set all the bachelors up at vendue.
4 crier was sent through the town to ana FRO,
TO rattle his bell and his trumpet to blow,
And to bawl out TO all he might meet on his
way,
clio! forty old bachelors sold here to-dayr'
And presently all the old maids of the town.
Each one in her very best bonnet and gown,
From thirty to sixty fair, plain red, and pale,
OF every description all focked to the sale.
The auctioneer, then, in his labor began
And called out aloud, as he held upa man,
GLOW much for IL bachelor? Who wants to
buy?"
In twink, every maiden responded" 81 /"
In short at hugely eXtravagant price,
The bachelors all were sold off in Il tIice
And forty old maidens some younger and
some older,
Each logged an ohl bachelor home on her
shoulder.

Oranges i'm the Azores.

The Azores seem simply the highest
points OF a great plateaulike eleva'

thousand miles from west to east,

tude, 25o and 310 POI west. Vol
canic lava rock as recent as 1922 are
now covered with corntields and
vineyards. Soil formed by the wear
ing down of such rocks is very favor
able to the growth OF plant lite.
Hedges OF the common reed, Arcndo
do7aaa, run up to height OF twelve
or fifteen feet, forming shelter and
furnishing light cane suitable for
many uses.
The Odiaana IMckeri has ruined the
vineyards and there is practically no
manufacture OF wine in the Azores.
San Miguel or St. Micheals is the
chief town of the Azores. At the
time of the Challenger's visit a
breakwater was building OF lava
blocks, for which every box of or
anges exported tor several years pays
a tax. Wild south.westerly winds
have pulled it down as fast as built,
and the present purpose is to fill in
an unlimited supply of blocks and let

her woman's wit soon hit upon a

her womans wit soon hit upon a
scheme.
Amongst those who had access to
her room was the washerwoman.
who came regularly on Saturday
with her ladyship's clean linen; she
was a little, ugly, deformed person,
with a peculiar hitch in her walk.
This was the woman Lady Ogilvy
fixed upon as the instrument through
which to attain liberty.
One Saturday, when the little
washerwoman made her appearance,
Lady Ogilvy told her that she had a
strong desire to learn how TO walk
like her-would she teach her? The
woman was nothing loath, so every
time she came, the prisoner made her
walk up and down the room to teach
her, and usually detained her some
time while she practiced; and when
the woman left, the lesson was again
rehearsed.
On the Saturday before the Mon
day on which she was to be executed,
when as usual toward shutdown the
washerwoman brought the linen, her
ladyship detained her as on previous
days, But this time it was not to
practice walking; it was for very
different object-no less than to
change clothes
"Give me your dress said Lady
Ogilvy; "and you take mine-you
remain quietly here, no one will harm
you, apd you will save my life"
The woman did as she was re-
quested. The exchange was speedily
made, aud she had the satisfaction OF
seeing that her lessons had not been
thrown away, and of learning the
reason why they had been desired.
Her pupil did her no discredlt, for
she took up the basket, and limping
with her own peculiar limp, lett her
and joined the washgirl who was
waiting outside.
odoubt the girl wondered why her
mistress was so unusually silent, and
doubtless put it down to i'll temper;
but who can picture her amazement
when she suddenly saw her crooked
little mistress throw down the basket,
and rise into tall, mystic woman,
and without word of farewell ran
down the High street as fast as her
nimble feet could carry her.
When the fugitive reached Abby
Hill, she found horses and change

with onions and cloves. Heat the
batter in small frying pan, and add
the flour. Stir over the fire until

the tomatoes, season to taste with
salt and pepper and rub through a
strainer which is fine enough to keep
back all the seeds. This sauce is
nice for fish, meat and lnacaroni.

A WOman's Fear Of Cows.

From the Detroit Fee Press.
1t is now over 100 years since an
American philosopher propohnded
the query. "Why is woman afraid
of COW ?" and yet no one has ever
succeeded in giving a satisfactory
answer. There is once in a while a
woman who doesn't seem TO have the
slightest fear, even when passing a
COW with one horn all twisted out of
shape but follow that woman home
and you will find that she kicks the
dog, cuffs the children, Jaws her hus-
band, and knows how to sharpen a
butcher knife and use an axe. The
real woman has moral terror Of
COWS, and the real COW seems to have
an antipathy tor her.
Friday forenoon lady was walk
ing down Cass avenue when she sud-
denly came upon acow. The animal
was feeding on the other side OF the
street and the boy sent out to watch
her sat under a shade tree play ing
on a mouth organ.
The lady halted.
The COW looked up.

boy as he moved the music from his
mouth.

piled.
