strong face; he is an ideal man. He is fifty
seven years old, but does not look it, His
smoothly-shaven face is that of q man of
perhaps fifty, certainly no more. His hair
which is well brushed back from the sides of
his face is silvered, but not more than is
often the case at forty-five. He does not
talk much, but when he does 1t is to the
point, and he is listened to.
He has an excellent seat in the
Senate, pretty near the center of the Dsmo.
cratic side. He is usually busy with his
writing, but keeping an eye constantly on
what goes on. When important questions
are to be considered he is awake, and putting
aside everything else watches the debate
with interest. When he speaks there is at
tention from both sides. His voice is rather
agreeable, his gestures graceful, his argu-
ments clear, concise and telling. His home
is on one OF the most fashionable avenues of
the city, a modest rather 0ld-fashioned brick
building with q roomy porch in front,
broad hall, q tastefQlly but rather plainly
furnished parlor, which is pretty well filed
when his family are sill at home, for he has
four or five children. In the social world his
family Is less known than those of many who
have not been here half so long, for they are
inclined to very exclusive" IL Mr.. Bay
ard should be Secretary of State and Mrs
Bsyard should have as tight grasp on the
management of affairs at the White House as
Mrs. Frelinghuysen has had during Arthur's
term, the exclusiveness there would be quite
as great as was expected would be the case
under Mr.. Blaine in case Of bis election.
Baysrd, as is well known. is third in direct
succession in the Bayard family who have

James A. Bayard, serving in the Senate from
81 to 80, and then the present Senator

Senator Jones is another Cabinet probab-
ility, though not so much talked about as
some of the others. He was a hard worker
during the campaign and proved himself an
astute political adviser. The gossips do not
say so much about him as many of the
others but those pretty near to the throne
say he is really more likely to be chosen than
many of those more talked about One
thing in his favor is that ne goes out OF the
Senate at the end of the present session, so
that his selection would not seem so much

They Mixed the Girls.
lSeaford Enterprise.


On large farm nearly in sight of the O uiet
little town OF Fredericksburg, Nd, resides a
blooming young girl OF twenty-five SUM-
mers, also her cousin, two years her senior.
Both OF them have besus, whom their stern
old father and uncle does not approve of.
The lover No. and his sweetheart, unbe-
known to the other parties, had made all
their arrangements 10 steal off in the still of
the night and get married. This was also
the plan OF the contracting parties No. 2.
The ladder was hidden back of the garden,
for the purpose OF scaling the walls at the
proper time. In the bewitching hours
of the night lover No. l placed the
ladder to the window of girl No. ,. The
night was dark just at that time. She made
her exit out of the window and into the
arms of her supposed knight and was hur-
ried off to the c'rriage near by. Not word
was spoken. The bsrriage was gained and
the lash applied to the horses. When they
arrived at the house of the preacher, who
was waiting to tie the knot, the gallant
knight discovered that he had got the wrong
girl. OF course there were some salts and
cuss words and the tug OF war came-how
to get the weeping girl back undiscovered.
Lover No. met with an accident by run
ming his buggy against a post and carrying
away his port wheel, and failed that night
to arrive at the house. The old man has
bought S13-gun, and is nightly in ambush
for the raiders.

"You would think that cross.eyed person
would overcome his senstiveness," said al
oculist, "but he seldom does. He broods
over it. 1t grows on him. He ina ines
that every one he meets thinks as much
about it rs he does, and life often loses all
attraction for him. Did you ever notice a
cross eyed man walk2 No? / can tell one
as Tar as can see him. 1t imparts to his
gait a certain movement peculiar to the
whole class of cross-eyed people. But it is
not altogether bashfulness which causes him
to avoid looking person squarely in the
face. III he retained the power of sight In
each OF his crooked eyes, as Is often the case,
it would do him 10 good to look the ordin-
airy way. He would be very likely to miss
vision would probably cross a foot or so be-
fore the object was fully comprehended, and
all he would see would be the faint and
shadowy outlines OF Q pair of ears or the rim
OF a hat. The place where the face ought to
be would be a dismal blank. Many bright
features are ruined by this fearful misfor-
tune. Some sensitive victims never bluck
up courage enough to marry. They often
become selfish misanthropes, grow stingy
end leave a fortune for a horde of straight
eyed relatives who totally ignored them
while they were alive, to fight over. Others,
Win tnat udtu1dl yedInlug IOr the love anu
sympathy which are almost universally
denied cross-eyed men, take what they can
get in the matrimonial market. They
spring at the very first chance which offers.
Thus often a soulful, but cross-eyed, ;esthete
finds himself Joined to loving but uusym-
pathetic helpmeet whose ambition never
rises above the kitchen or the laundry. He
loses his hopes, descends to the level of his
mate, and what might have been a talented,
career is ended on q large box in front of
the corner grocery in retailing neighbor-
hood gossip. Occasionally you find q man
with sufficient strength of mind to live down
the malign effects of strabismus and come
out victor. When once a man has over
come his difhdence he becomes as bold as
a sewing machine agent. When he is cour-
ageous enough to look q woman obliquely
in the face without stammering an apology
for having been born he can fairly be said
to be superior to his misfortune. Such
man would make q heroic soldier. Unfort-
unately, there are few who can do this. The
ordinary man melts under the affiictIon like
q cake of ice in July sun.
