The sbrewd and Humorous CARLYLE,

1t would be easy to say many things
on Mr.. Carlyle's writings and opinions
which must be left unsaid; but a few
words must be written about the man
himself. One who had seen much of
the world and knew a large proportion
Of the remarkable men Of the last thir-
ty years. declared that Mr.. Carlyle was
by far the most impressive person he
bad aver known; the man who con-
yeyed most forcibly to those who ap-
preached him that general impression
9f genius and force Of character which it
Is impossible either to mistake OF to de-
fine. His singularly striking appear
nee: his eyes, nearly the largest, and
in youth, it is said, the most piercing
and powerful to be seen in any human
head; his stern and rugged features,
Ike q Scotch bull and yet unlike C.
Scotch terrier, are known to every one.
The extraordinary charm Of his CONVEX
sation and manner is known only to o,
fsw. He had stately native courtesy,
dignity, and consideration for the feel
ipgs Of others, which, Notwithstanding
some small defects of temper, must
have struck every one who approached
dim. He was not at his best when he
vas allowed to have all the CONVERSE
lion to himself, for in such cases he
talked Gas was NATURALLY too much like
his books; bnt when he was in company
where he was obliged to give and take
he was the most charming of takers.
His laugh was freedom and cordially
Itself. His humor was at once SO pow,
arful and 20 subtle that it seemed to,
exhaust the matters on which it touched.

81 character from small indications, was
extraordinary. He once denounced as

Tho time was in the best repute, and
who shortly afterward turned out to de-

him. How he wa asked, s'did you

he, II saw rogue in the twist Of the

man." The ~unspeakable felicity of the
spithet could DO shown only by an un-
warrantable breach Of confidence. But
I'LL these things were but symptoms Of
vomething else Of infinitely higher inn

gave an impression Of truth and power

a Good anndstous,

The American Builder thus sums up
the qualities of q good grindstone: It
should be strong, simple, and clean; tho
trough expanded. to catch as much as
possible Of the drip water and grit; a
movable shield, securely hinged. to
keep the water from s~plashing, and yet
permit the stone to be used from either
side; rests provided, upon which to rest
tools and the rod for trueing the stone.
these rods being arranged to move to-
ward the centre as the stone wears
smaller. The bearings should be gen.
erous in size, proper provision being
made for oiling without washing the
grit into the bearings with the oil, and
the ends of the bearings being protect
ed by some devise which effectually
prevents the entrance Of the grit. Tho
stone should be secured to the shaft by
nuts and washers, and the washers
fixed 20 that they cannot turn with the
nuts as they are screwed up or unscrew-
ed. La hanging the stone. great care
should be taken to hang it true side
wise. not only for convenience in using
but because q stone that is not trup
sidewise q never be kept true edge
wise.

A banquet was recently given by .
bourgeois of Brescia which is destined
to make its mark in the annals of cook
cry. 1t was composed entirely of asses
iiesa-roast, boiled and broiled. All
vas ass. nothing but ass, and the whole
vas pronounced most exquisite. As
money makes the man. SO does cookery
make tho meat. Every part of this Ital-
ian beast sacrificed on this occasion
went down the t.roats of wise men as
acmbled to devour him. The tongue in
partiuular WAS declared to be perfect.
VIII the example be tolerated else
where? The motive of the giver of the
banquet was simply to procure for the
poorer population an article of food
more nutritious than the bad beef and
mutton sold at the butchers shops.

The Double scull Championship.

Nothing definite will be decided relative to
the proposed double scull championship race
between Hanlan and Ross and Davis and Ken
nedy until the Canadians return to this coun-
try. The correspondent of the Boston Herald
in London had a conversation with the cham
pion on the subject few days since. Hanlan
was not surprised to learn that the Portland
oarsmen had accepted the challenge, but he
had expected that two of the oarsmen at pres
ent in England would accept the cartel he
and Ross had issued before the announcement
had reached America. AS Davis and Kenne-
dy are first in the field their acceptance is first
to be considered. In match of this kind,
however, there was much to be said and a
great deal to be done before the parties to it
can formally bind themselves to row. The
acceptance is in the nature of new PROPOSE
ton, as Davis and Kennedy desire to name the
course. Then question will arise, said Han
Ian, as to what distance shall be rowed, and
whether the race shall be straightaway or
with turn. These detuils cannot be decided
by telegraph, unless at great expense, and
there is no time to arrange preliminaries prior
to the 18th of February, on which date he and
his new mate, Ross, will start for home.
Therefore he preferred not to say anything
about the proposed match until he bad re-
turned to America. He will meet Mr.. Davis
on his arrival in the United States, and the
parties to the proposed match will then mu-
tualy agree on conditions, and, if they cannot
SO agree, then they will agree to disagree.
Hanlan said they would have double scull
race if the accepting parties were not too ex-
acting, and, as Davis and Kennedy were fair
and honorable men, he had great hopes of a
good race. A cable message from Mr.. T. B.
Whitefoot, editor of the London Sportsman,
outlining this decision by Hanlan, has been re-
ceived at the Herald Office.

The .#tna Life Statement.

We extract, from the comments of the Hart
ford papers upon the Etna Life Insurance
Company's annual statement, the following:
The Courant says: "The figures speak vol.
umes of commendation for the excellent man
agement. The year has assuredly been pros
porous one with the Etna, and the showing of
figures is sound proof that there is no better
company in the country in which to insure
Such an institution as this is one for which
Hartford may justly be proud"
The Times says: 'The stupendous business
OF the Etna Life has been built up by the
most energetic but at the same time cautious
methods, and sound principles Of finance are
the foundation upon which its colossal success
has rested"
The Post says: ''The past year has been a
continuation of the -Etna's successful career
With its efficient management it may reasona
bly, be expected to continue the increase of its
large and prosperous business. The 4Etna is un
questionably one of the strongest and best life
insurance companies in existence. Its manage
ment from the outset has been eminently con.
servatiVe, giving it a reputation that any
company in the world might honestly fee
proud of. Successful as its past has been, it.
future career will even exceed the past in
point of success"

AT Y. +. Davis may be seen a photograph
from Lippincott's painting "Deur Bons Amis,"
presented by the artist to Mr. Clarence Hsm-
lin. little peasant girl sitting on a bank is
feeding pet lamb.
There is also breezy sketch of Spanish
coast scene, by gentleman who has taken the
nom de plume Of Rolf. The clouds are full of
wind, there is Dutch lugger in the fore
ground, and the picture is replete with life, and
shows good coloring.
Hewes has beautiful panel picture of wild

There is an excellent photograph from a
crayon portrait of Miss Fannie Olive Nudge,
daughter of E. R. Nudge, formerly of Port
land, now of Boston. The lady died few
years ago. She was always full of life and
spirits, as the laughing eyes betoken, and as a
girl of most amiable, loving disposition, such
as the sister of Col. Charles r. Nudge. one of
the bravest of the brave, should have been.
Speaking of Miss Won Hillern's and Miss
Beckett's pictures, the Boston Herald saws:
The most remarkable of Miss Won Hillern's
is kitchen interior, with four figures: a
woman at large spinning wheel twisting off
yarn; young girl crouched before the fire.
warming her hands; grandmother peeling
potatoes, and little chap, Just out of baby
hood, sitting in high chair beside her with
piece of potato to keep him quiet The room
itself is well drawn, and painted with agreea-
BILE tones and almost too realistic accessons:
but the best of the picture is the fl gure of the
woman standing by the wheel, well drawn, of
agreeable color, and the pose extremely natur-
al and easy. In all the works of Miss Won
Hillern the figures are well placed, solidly
modeled, and whatever they are represented as
doing they do easily and gracefully There is
simplicity of conception aud treatment that
prove extreme youthfulness in art, but an ex-
ercise of fine natural gifts, and an appearance
OF great earnestness that point to most sue

ter known, but she seems to have made a very
marked progress in these latest efforts. Her

JOHN TYLER :


projected into the centre breadth. When fin
lshed, the carpet was packed and forwarded to
the Presidential mansion as present to the
incumbent of the chair. Presidential presents
were not then nearly as common as they have
since become, and SO it was no wonder that
the Vice, acting as President, was somewhat
elated! And what could be done to properly
acknowledge such an unusual gift? Surely
nothing less than office. Mr.. Tyler imme-
diately wrote personal letter (at least so it is
said) to the Collector of Customs at Portland
to ask if any vacancy existed in his office! for
getting, poor, simple-minded man. that "few
die and none resign" an office under5the gov
ernment. Mr.. Nathan Cummings, then Col
lector of the port, politely informed his excel
iency that there was no such vacancy of
course. Mr.. Tyler wrote second autograph
letter to ask ii there was not one more man
actually needed in some position. The Col
lector again replied in the negative, adding
that there was not work enough even for
those already in office. The great southern
mail very soon brought an order for the ap-
pointment of Mr.. Lowry for an altogether new
and useless position in the custom house, and
which the collector, of course, had the good
sense to promptly recognize. The faithful in
sleeve" regularly drew his salary until Mr..
Polk came into office in March, 1916, and then
he had to retire wiser and richer man, in
favor of square Democrat, to his ruSty carpet
looms, amid which he ever after lived happy
life, and brought up a large family of smart
and promising children.
