A STATESMAN HARD UP.
A Vice President Who Borrowed 500
TO Pay Inauguration Expenses.
once Holding Too Expensive to BE Very
Profitable.
THE Evangelist

The Evangelist
Mr.. Frank B. Carpenter, the we'll
known artist, who painted the picture of
Lincoln Signing the Emancipation Proc
lamation," now in the Capitol at Wash
ington, writes us as follows:
THE night before Grant and Wilson
were inaugurated / yeas sitting with
Charles Sumner in his library Il was
painting portrait of him at that time,
when Vice President-elect Wilson came
In. He sat down, and after a moment
said: Sumner will you lend me 800?
i have not money enough to carry me
over the inauguration Sumner sat
down at his desk and took out bis check
book, and as he handed Wilson check
for the amount asked for, he said: will
son, always have 500 for friend
Wilson put the check in his pocket-boOk,
and, expressing his thanks, went away.
Sumner turned to me and said: There is
something for your notebook
1t is indeed something worthy OF record
to the honor of him whom it concerns.
Here was a man who was the next day
to assume the second office in the gov
eminent OF the country, yet whose means
were so extremely modest that he needed
500 for the necessary expenses of inaug-
uration.
And yet this man had had opportuni-
ties of boundless wealth; for he had been
in positions of the highest trust and re-
sponsibility. For eighteen years he had
been a member of the Senate of the
United States, and during the whole
term of the war had been Chairman of
the Committee on Military Affairs. In
this position he had to do with measures
which concerned the raising of vast
armies, and their equipment for the field,
which involved the expenditure of hun
dreds of millions
At that time the capital was overrun
with men who were seeking profitable
contracts with the Government Had
he been willing to take an interest" with
them, he could easily have obtained the
needed contracts through his connection
with the War Department, and out of
the profits realized might have put aside
millions for himself Yet so inhexible
was his integrity, and so well known,
that no contractor or speculator dared to
approach him. He went into his Mill
tary Committee and into the War De
partment with clean hands, and with a
mind in which there was not thought
but for the good of his country, and he
came out Of the war as poor as he entered
1t; and 50, when he was raised by the

The Law of Sex in Literature.


Despite the limitations of women, the
sex is no longer at real disadvantage in
the world of letters, particularly in the
world of fiction. The novel is woman's
realm.
In the authorship of the really great
novels of the century, women have done
work that suffers nothing by comparison
with that of men. In creative power, in
the delineation of character, in the con-
struction of story, in the touches that
awaken the moral sentiments and gain
the mastery over ones nature, the wOm-
an is as likely as the man to do the best
work.
But you would never think of wom-
an as the author of THE Excursion" or
as the writer OF a treatise logic, or as any
thing more than a sympathetic respon-
dent to philosophical ideas at the Concord
School of Philosophy. The law of sex
asserts itself in literature, and when wom-
en- attempt what is beyond them, as il
the line of sex could be crossed over with
impunity, nature appears with sword
that moves both ways, and forbids women
to enter the garden where they may again
eat of the fruit of the tree of all intellectual
effort.

Japan the Paradise of Children.

Prof. Gardner, of the Toxic mission
school, says that Japan is the children's
paradise. In no other country are the
young people treated with such consider
alton.
Two days are national holidays for the
children. The third day of the third
month is the girls festival. In every
family YOU will find dolls in large num-
bers arranged in one of the rooms re-
served for that purpose. These have
been handed down from one generation
to another. Every mother presents each
of her girls with doll every time this
festival comes around, and as the dolls
are never destroyed, in time they become
numerous.
The boys holiday is the fifth day of
the fifth month. On the morning OF
this festival, the boys, after passing under
the BARRIERS hands, with clean shaven
heads and dressed in their best clothes,
60 to the temple and offer prayer and
then start out FOR a lark. In front of
every house in which a boy has been
born you see paper fish flying in the
wind from the end of long bamboo
pole.

Woman's Attractiveness.

Personal attractions most girls possess
at any rate, in a sufficient degree TO
render them attractive to somebody; for
although there are standards and models
of beauty, yet these do not prevail with
all persons.
There is something wonderful i'll the
difference of aspect which the same face
wears to different beholders Probably the
philosophical explanation of this is that
what is hidden from all others becomes
Immediately and instinstively apparent to
the eye of love.
How can moderately goOd-lOoking
girl increase her attractions? BY culture.
She must cultivate her mind. An ignor-
ant, illiterate woman, even if she attracts
attention, cannot retain the interest OF an
intelligent man. She must do this by read
ing, by study, by reflection and by famil-
lar conversation with the best and most
highly educaten persons with whom she
comes in contact
But the heat must be cultivated as well
as the head. OF all things, exclaimed a
most elegant and refined gentleman,
after nearly a lifetime'S familiarity
with the best society, of all things give
me softness and gentleness in woman.
A harsh voice, coarse laugh-trihes
like these have spoiled many a favorable
first impression. The cultivation of the
heart must be real, not feigned. A wOm-
an who studies to appear rather than to
be good and generous seldom succeeds in
deceiving the opposite sex in these res
poets She who in truth seeks to promote
the happiness of those around her is very
apt soon to obtain admirers among men.
Above all other requirements in woman
is sonscientiousness.

The Glory of Old Age.

Age always empties; but it may empty
the mind OF the wrong things. 1t NAV
empty the mind of everything but selfish
and egotistic passion, instead of empty
ing it of selfish and egotistic passion. 1t
may make the medium through which
everything is seen one of more and more
disturbing kind. 1t may drain away all
the generous passions, and leave nothing
but envy, vindictiveness, and wiliulness
behind. 1t may discharge the memory
OF all that is elevating, and leave behind
all that Is degrading. 1t may take away
the excuse of fiery impulses, and vet
leave the ignobleness of malicious pur-
poses.
Age, doubtless, is a sieve which strains
away either the dregs and leaves behind
all that is finest, or strains away the finer
elements of experience and leaves only
the dregs; and you can never be sure
which OF the two processes will take
place. Still, of course, the generation of
age Is founded wholly on the assump-
ton that the finer elements of experience
are retained in the mind, and the grosser
ones purged away; and this is the ten
dency in all cases in which the char
acter is governed by pure and noble
will.
In such charactereven the memory,
which lets so much drop, as time goes on,
appears to drop chiefly what most de-
serves oblivion, and to hold fast to that
which is best adapted to guide, to refine
and to chasten.
But it is well to observe that it is not
age which constitutes the blessings of ex-
perience, but the right kind of expert
ence that constitutes the blessing of age.
Sometimes one is tempted to think that
before unvenerable age could be purified
it would have to be regenerated with the
high impulses and passions of youth; for
really it is the precipitate of these i'm
pulses and passions, under the mag
netism of a pure and disinterested
viii, which makes" the experience in
which the glory of age consists.

Teaching without a Certificate.

Model mothers are of the first import
ance in molding the nature of the child;
and if we would have fine characters, we
must necessarily present before them
fine models. Now, the model most con-
stantly before every child's eye is the
mother.
Zone good mother" said George Her
bert, els worth a hundred schoolmasters.
In the home she is lOadstOne to all hearts
and loadstar to all eyes" Imitation of
her is c0nstant-imitatiOn which Bacon
hkens to ''globe of precepts." 1t is in
structiOn. 1t is teaching without words,
often exemplifying more than tongue can
teach.
In the face of bad example the best
precepts are of but little avail The ex-
ample is followed, not the precepts. In
deed precept at variance with practice,
is worse than useless, inasmuch as it only
serves to teach that most crowardly of
vices-hypocrisy. Even children are
judges of hypocrisy, and the lessons of
the parent who says one thing and does
the opposite, are quickly seen through.
The teaching of the friar was not worth
much who preached the virtue of homes
ty with stolen goose in his sleeve.

A Popular Girl.
The Boston Beacon says:

Inc Boston beacon says:
What is it that determines a girls pop
ularity in society? is aquestion often
heard in these days of social strife and
aggrandizement, and question that no
one is quite able to answer in a word.
1t is not because she is well dressed,
or even pretty; it is not that her fairy
godnother bestowed a witty tongue to
amuse billiards; it is not because she is
rarely intelligent" or "highly edu-
Gated" or $50 amiable"-no, none of
these desirable qualities would render
the popular girl more popular than she
is, though, perhaps, she is fortunate
enough to possess one or more of them
for her stock in trade.
The girl everybody likes need have
neither money nor beauty, which, in the
worlds estimation, constitutes social
power but she must have, and does have
a gracious manner, a certain graceful
bearing, decided intelligence, instructive
generosity, and above all, the greatest
gift ever awarded to woman personal
magnetism.
Beauty is called the fatal gift, but per
sonal magnetism, which is independent
OF beauty, is the gift OF power, and,
though scarcely recognized at first, only
relinquishes its hold with death itself.
The popular girl always has this fasci-
nation in more or less degree, and if with
it 90 the other attractions or happy cir
cumstances, she rules the indisputable
queen of her small sphere. Her friends
do not analyze the effect she has on them;
they simply like her, love her, and later,
when the time comes. adore her.

The Home Life of Some of Our NeighbOrs

The Home Life of Some of Our Neigh bOrs
Across the Pond.
(Eli Perkinss European Letters
Women on farms in Switzerland and
Bavaria have no social duties; they never
read; the newspaper is unknown They
have no toilets to make. Theirs Is a
life OF brutal work. No slave in the South
ever lived so far down in the scale of civ
il.zation.
AS Bavaria joins Switzerland give the
essence of a little talk which had with a
Bavarian farmer and wife, between
Geneva and Munich. They were both in
the field reaping wheat with sickle. A
barefooted woman was picking up straw

'NOng' they both said, shaking their
heads.
The bread they eat is made of rye. In
the villages the same bread is fed to
horses. 1t is a common thing to see a
man and horse eating from the same
loaf. Girls working as servants in cities
