Imperial Airs at the White
House.
NO. 6.

- tt
N. Y. Graphic. f-.a ID
Probably the greatest stride towards
imperialism and imperial manners in
this country has been made by Arthur
since he has been in the White House.
A distinguished gentleman recently
said he had dined with seven Presi-
dents-Arthnr making the seventh
and that the other six, including the
immortal Lincoln and Grant, receiv.
ed their guests in a plain, simple,
cordial and unostentatious manner,
and with some pleasant words of
greeting, l.. ........a
With Arthur it is different. Guests
invited to dinner, now arrive at the
hour named. A gold-laced, hair-pow-
dered servant shows them to the Blue
room. No one receives the guests,
unless it be the servant. They get
seats the best they can but they gen
orally stand, wondering what impor-
tant affair of State obfiges the Presi-
dent to violate all the rules of good
breeding. .
After waiting half an hour or SO,
the nations band, paid for with the
peoples money, by order of the Presi-
dent strikes up "Hail to the Chief"
In few moments Arthur, with slow
and measured tread, appears descend
ing the stairway, and soon enters the
door of the Blue room. s. When in
full presence of his. guests he pauses
and poses; then, folding his arms
with precision on an exact line be-
tween his heart and stomach, still to
the music of "Hail to the Chief" he
presents himself before each of his
guests, bowing stately and low, but
uttering not word. This part of
the ceremony being over, he usually
offers his arm to some member of the
Secretary of States family and, still
to the music of "Hail to the Chief"
marches into the dining room.
Think of Jefferson, Madison, Lin
coin or Grant ordering the nations
band to play "Hail to the Chief" and
then marching into the room where
their guests were assembled, They
treated their guests as friends and
equals, as citizens of Republic.
Simplicity belongs to greatness; show
and glamour to pretenders and friends.
1t is said that Arthur is attempting
to copy after the court of Napoleon
III. He has fairly succeeded. He
resembles his great ideal in many
points-he is gourmand, he turns
night into day, he is dull, heavy and
stupid, and without the administra-
tive faculty. Unlike Napoleon III,
he is timid, wavering, false to friends,
obsequious to critics and enemies.
Do the plain people want continu-
ance of imperial manners at the White
House?

A Girls Romantic story.
HOW A WAITRESS RECAME THE WIFE OF
A MILLIONAIRE.

Pittsburg Post.
Both the Packer boys, Robert and
Harry, were treated like equals by
their father and mother. In the little
village where this good old man lived
there was a summer hotel, which was
patronized considerably during the
season, young Harry Packer ofton
taking his meals there. A young girl
named Lockwood, the daughter Of a
respectable citizen living near the vii
Iage, came in to assist waiting on the
table. The frequency of Harry Pack
er's meals at the hotel attracted some
attention, and his brother Robert, or
"Bob," as he was Familiarity and affec-
tionately called by almost all who ever
knew him, said one day before the
father and Harry at the breakfast
table that Harry was sweet on a little
girl down at the hotel, and that was
the reason he did not come to his
meals regularly. Harry coIored up a
little, and after they had finished their
breakfast the old Judge seated him

Hate not. 1t Is not worth while.
Your life is not long enough to make
it pay to cherish i'll will or hard
thoughts to any one. What if that
man has cheated you or that woman
played you false What if this friend
has forsaken you in your time of need,
or that one having won your utmost
confidence, your warmest love, has
concluded that he prefers to consider
and treat you as stranger' Let it
all pass. What difference will it make
in few years, when You 60 hence to
the undiscovered country" All who
treat yon wrong now will be more
sorry for it than you, even in your
disappointment and grief, can be. A
few more smiles, few more tears,
some pleasure, much pain, a little
longer hurrying and worrying in the
world, some hasty greetings and alb
rupt farewelIs and life will be over,
and the injurer and injured will be
laid away, and ere long forgotten. 1t
is not worth while to hate each other.

"A PSALM OF LIFE"

Tell me not in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream !"
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.
Life Is real Life is earnest
And the grave is not its goal
dust thou art, to dust returnest," Tl
Was not spoken Of the soul.
Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way,
But to act that each tomorrow
Finds us further than to-day.
Art is long, and time is fleeing,
And our hearts, though stout and brave
Still, like muffied drums, are beating
Funeral marches to the grave.
In the worlds broad field of battle,
In the biVOuac of life,
Be not like dumb, driven cattle
Be hero in the strife.
Trust no fortune, howe'er pleasant;
Let the dead past bury its dead;
Act-act In the living present
Heart within and God o'erhead9
Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time
Footprints that perhaps another,
Sailing o'er life's solemn main,
A fOrelorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.
Let us, then, be up and doing,
With heart for any fate,
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait.
HENRY W. LoNGFELLow.

No. l.

There was a man in our town, and
he was wondrous wise, for when he
marked his prices down he then did
advertise.
And when he saw his trade increase,
with all his might and main, he
marked still lower every price, and
advertised again.
And when he advertised again his
rivals stamped and tore, to see folks
rush with might and main to patron.
Use his store.
And while they sat in solitude and
saw his custom win, that man behind
the counter stood and raked the
shekels in.
And when he raked the shekeIs in,
and saw his fortune rising, he took a
goodIy lot of tin and kept on adver-
tising.
Each day a generous sum he'd sink,
and demonstrate full plain, the more
one pays for printers ink the greater
is his gain.-Er.

John w. CARROTS Reward for a Brave
Man.
From the Chicago Herald.
Mr. CARROTS death reminds me of a
story remarked an old railroadeI not
now in service. at was before the war.
I was running an engine on the B. and
0. In those days there were good many
slaves getting away from their masters
in Virginia and making for Pennsylvania.
So the owners dubbed together and es
tablished patrol along the B, and o.
For more than a. hundred miles they
kept an average of three men to every
mile where there was timber, watching
the track nights with dogs and guns, to
catch any slave that would at empt to
cross. One night was running freight
west. All of sudden before me in the
light from my head lamp l saw colored
man on the track. He had heavy stick
in his hand, and was fighting for life
with pack Of dogs. Down the track l
saw three slave-hnnters running toward
the negro. 1 tell you, it was sight that
made my blood boil. Acting on the i'm
pulse of the moment / shut off steam,
whistled down brakes, and set up fearful
whistling. l also released the safety
valve, and made her blow off steam. |
hoped to frighten the dogs, and did.
They turned and looked at the big light
of the engine, and some of them ran
away. But the slave was nearly as badly
frightened as the dogs. He stood motion
less on the track. To this day can see
his figure as it was outlined against the
darkness. 1t was a statue Of despair.
Fearing that we would run over him, l
clambeTed out to the pilot and shouted to
him Just in time. He reused with start
jumped to one side as passed and called
to him to get on the train, which by this
time was running slow, watched him
get on, when l gave her full head of
steam, whistled off brakes, and we sailed
by the slave-hunters so fast they could
not get on. They fired at me, but missed.
My fireman carried my dinner
bucket back to the negro. He devoured
it like starving man. He must have
been peculiar negro for when my fire.
man came back there were streaks down
his coal begrimed face. He had been cry
ing. He said that niger had en-
braced him with joy and prayed
for him on his knees on the top Of
a box car. My bucket was empty when
it came back, and then the fireman took
his back to our passenger. 1t was emp
tied, too. The man was famishing. Well,
that slave got into Ohio, and after an in
yestigation my case was laid before Mr..
Garrett. To satisfy the slave-owners he
discharged me, but got me a job on the

wages all the time | was idle"
