Mr.. Blnine's nomination had but very
short,liycd popularity IN Europe. II took the
European journalists but few days TO find out
what sort ofa person Mr., Blaine was, and
there Is not II European newspaper now which
speaks fNyOrnbly of him. But In Justice to Mr..
Blalno il must be aid that Il Is sheer fear that
inspires them. They nrc afraid of his agrees

Twelve years ago the New York Tribune re-
garded an independent republican as about the
handsomest thing that could be framed in the
prodigality of nature. Now the Tribune, edited
by the same patriotic citizen, holds that an in
dependent republican is very little better than
u horse thief, confidence man, pirate, and
hedge hog rolled into one.

an important message to her alone. u
there was any ore who would Jog her
memory. s'Be sure and remind Susy,"
was always the last charge.
She generally had a red string tied
around one finger and blue one most
likely around another, to remember
things by, and she used to beg mothers
gold ring for the same purpose, until
she lost it. By great good luck Ned
found 1t Just where she had laid it down
on a window-sill. After that she had
to be content with strings for her fin
gers.
This is about the way it was at our
house six days out or seven. If it was
not one mishap it was another:
Susy had shelled a basin about half
full of 'rice popcorn, all ready for
evening. when her cousins were coming
over for candy-pull.
''This corn seems a little damp" she
said to herself. 81 think / will set it
in the oven just a minute or two, and
then it wills pop splendidly tonight. !"
So she slipped in the tin, and turned
up the damper, and went up stairs to
get ready Tor school. In the middle
of the forenoon that oven came into
her mind, as she stood at the black
board working out an example, 1t did
not help the process of solution at all.
About the same time mother came into
the kitchen to see what could be burn
ing She speedily opened the oven
door and all the windows. About all
that corn that could pop had, and there
had been a regular overflow. or spring
freshet of it.. in every nook and corner
of the oven To state that il was half
full new, would not be an exaggera-
ton, though in a somewhat reduced
state. All was quickly swept out into
big pan and thrown to the chickens,
who are fond of charcoal, and must
have considered this an extra enter
tainment. Cleansing the air of the
house was not so easy.
You would have supposed that Susy
would be shy of the oven after that,
but it made no difference. The next
week she put her overshoes in it, on
two stick of wood. $50 as to be pre-
fectly safe, just for moment, to warm
them through. When Ned came in
twenty minutes later and shifted the
air of the Kitchen, he too, peeped iato
the oven.
"My, what a good dinner we shall
have! Baked overshoes are so juicy and
richr' he said to little girl who just
then came flying in. ''Please reach
me the tongs, sis, he added, and he
fished out Of she oven two shriveied
sticky objects. Poor Susy burst into
tears; and it was some time before she
heard the last of her new fashioned
cookery Ned insisted she ought to get
out new cook book.
have given you two samples of
Susys way, but am glad to add that
she is improving. Mother had to adopt
pretty rigorous system of discipline,
and Susy finds she can help forgetting
more than she ever thought she could.
