EFFICIENCY, NOT CHARACTER.

Clara Belle writes in one Of her New
York letters "Thele is n character
in every step a person takes" said n
man who thought he knew it all, so far
as the science of gait was concerned.
"When l saw you pass our house the
other day, Miss Clara, L was impressed
by the easy, independent freedom of
your walk. Such firm yet gentle strides
betrayed the dominant urcoyentionali-
ty of your character"
He was Doctor of Divinity, and
didn't care to sass him but felt boun
in Christian honesty TO ask him twas
L wearing my brown and black plush
suit ?"
He believed so.
"Then Twas making special effort
to take long, swinging steps," said
"because that's the only way | can
make the drapery swlth right. That
meant exlSency.not character. See me

Presidential Handwriting.

Abraham Lincoln vrote'a small, care
full hand.
The handwriting of General Grant is
easy to read.
Andrew Johnson's handwriting was
large and labored. His figures seemed
all thumbs.
Zachary Taylor wrote with blunt
pen, with few florishes aDd no attempt
ut ornamentation.
John Tyler, next to Garfield, was the
best writer among the Presidents. He
wrote clear, legible. open hand.
Martin Van Buren, did not like to
write, but..when he did sign his name
it was in large, round characters.
Franklin Pierce was the worst writ
er of all the Presidents. His writing
was hot pretty, but it could be easily
read.
The handwriting of William Henry
Harrison was classic. He was man
of varied accomplishments and wide in
formation.
No one would ever be able to counter
felt the handwriting Of Rutherford b.
Hayes. He meyer made the same let
ter the same way.
James Buchanan was proud of his
handwriting. He prided himself on
his punctuation, spelling and the ele-
gance of his style Of composition.
James X. Polk made a signature
which looks like copper plate. Every
line of it is well made, and there is a
flourish under it which would do honor
to writing teacher.
