Model Children.

Here in London, where am writing,
there are several hundred people
whose business it is to sit for artists.
Some of them, who are particularly
beautiful, are engaged every day in the
year. and may earn from dollar and
a half to two dollars day. They must
keep still for hours, and often stand or
kneel IN tiresome positions. However,
the models generally take great in
terest in the pictures they sit for, and
like to do their best for the artists who
employ them.
Among the models are some very lit
tie children, who began to sit when
they were mere babies. / have often
wished that some rich children could
see how patient these little ones can be,
when they understand that they are
earning money to buy food and clothes.
l have tried for days to persuade a fine
little boy, in smart silk stockings and
fine shoes, to keep his feet still long
enough to paint them.
When l find that a child cannot sit
quietly to have his dress painted, l send
for George Mum. He is very proud
to put on the beautiful stockings and
shoes. make a chalk mark on the
throne where his little feet should 90,
and he will keep carefully on the mark
He has a few minutes for rest at inter-
walls during each hour, and long rest
at dinner-time; but he will keep very
quite while we are working, and will
not move without leave. He is very
little boy, so his mother keeps her arm
around bim to steady him, and talks to
him in a whisper, without disturbing
me. She teaches him to count, or to
sing little songs or to spell. Every now
and then he tries to guess what there
will be for dinner. With so good boy
to help me, can paint quickly; and
when Master Restless comes next day
to sit for his portrait, he is surprised to
see the dress quite tinished.-Annd Lea
Merritt, in the st. Nicholas for Dec.

II. S. Showers, as administrator of the es-
tale of Martha A Myers, and F. NJ. Hagan
as administrator of the estate OF f. p. Myers,
have submitted to Common Pleas Court,
without bringing formal action and on agree
ment as to facts, an interesting case in dispo-
sition of life insurance money. Myers had
81 900 insurance on his life in the -Etna, of
Hartford, Conn, the amount being made
payable, by the terms of the policy, 10 said
Martha A. Myers, wife OF E. P. Myers, should
she survive him, or to their children should
she not. Mrs. Myers died In 1880 and Mr. Myers
in 1888, both intestate. Prior TO the death OF
the wife all the children of the marriage died
without issue. The questions the Court is
asked to decide, and which will have bear
ing upon all similar cases are: Does the
amount paid on said insurance policy belong
to the estate OF said E. P. Myers or TO the
estate of Martha A. Myers. If TO the estate
OF Martha A. Myers then are not debts of
E. p Myers and costs of administering his
estate legally payable out OF this insurance
money before any part can be paid to the es-
taIe OF E. P Myers. Pending decision the
money is placed in keeping Of the Court.

EIecting a President.

The whole presidential proceeding
has drifted very far away from the orig
inal intention. The fathers did not an
ticipate, in regard to the president,
government by party; they regarded
even caucus nomination of candidates
as OF doubtful constitutionality. They
never expected that the choice of the
people should be restricted to two or
three men selected by party conven-
tons. As late as Jefferson time this
was not contemplated.
But now the whole affair is a perfect
ed piece of machinery. If a man can
by any means capture the party nomi-
nation in convention he is certain to
have the party strength at the polls.
The affair is determined by little eau
cuses round the country and by the bic
nominating caucus, and the people,
who never attend to their own affairs
till too late, when the crisis comes find
themselves shut up as to voting to lust
no choice at all. But this is not all.
The nominating conventions of the
parties. which were intended to be de-
Lucrative assemblies. composed of del
egates from all the states met to calm
iy consider the situation and put before
the party the best man, have become
vast popular assemblies, bowling mobs
of ten thousand more or less excellent
people, in the midst of whom no delib-
Grafton is possible, no debate or frank
comparison of views is possible, in
which the delegates are lost in a sea of
excitement. Under such circumstances
judgment on the merits of
men is impossible. If government by
party caucus is to continue, and the
for president are to be Sc
lected by party caucus, it has become
necessary that this great
caucus should be free to act and have a
chance to talk and deliberate, and to
this end it will have to exclude all ex-
cept members, necessary officials, and
reporters. The public would then be
perfectly informed of all that went on
but a chance local mob would
not be able to practically make or him
der nomination.
1t is further to be noted that while
We have departed entirely from the
original electoral plan, we have practi-
,ally taken from the voter any oppor-
unity of expressing his individual
.hoice for president. We can only vote
or one party or another. We say that
he president shall be the president of
he whole country and not of a party,
)ut we can not cast our votes on that
heory. Government by party is fact
n the United States, in England, i'll
france. In the opinion of wise men it
S the only practicable method of free
But it can be amply ex-
PRESSED in the choice of representatives
n congress, with which rests all legis- |
alton and all final determination of po-
ice. 1t is matter for discussion wheth- |
r it would be practicable, and wheth- |
r it would be best, if the choice of the
eople for president could be expressed
With less reference to party.-Harttord
]ourant.

Drifting Apart

A gap in the crowd, and moment we stand
Face to face and hand clasped In hand
While your eyes, that are light with a soulful
beam.
Awaken in mine own an answering CLEAN;
But a moment-then not knowing whittier
we're bound.
As the human tide that is surging around
Rolls between, we rush on with the hurrying
throng,
And our friendship is but forgotten song,
Sweet while IL lasted but soon forgot
A flower that has faded-a dream that is not.
A firmer hold and a stronger clasp,
A kindly smile and heartier grasp
As the crowd might have swept UNDECIDED by
But who was TO give it-you or II
So a sweetness is gone from our lives, and the
flower,
Whose beauty has sladdened us many an
hour
Lies dead and the dream that we might have
made true
Like shade has fed. Who is to blame-I or
you?
All. the world is SO wide. and day by day,
We drift from each other still further away,
So many around us with smiling applause
That seemingly safes us, we never pause
10 think of a friendship that might have
been,
Till a worldwide distance lies between.
And the tide has turned. and stranded
alone
On the bare. bleak shore. we wearily moan
For the love we let pass unheeded by;
Then who is the sadder-you or 1?

There was TO have been a meeting of clubs
forming the late Ohio State League of bsse
ball associations, at Ironton, December II, =,
bat as only the officers of the Ironton club
attended no business of a startling nature
was transacted. 1t Is thought, now that the
holidays are over, that a quorum can be got
together at some convenient point to settle
up affairs of the season just closed and the
guesuon of the pennart, whether any plans
are ma ured for another year or not. There
has been nothing done, beyond suggestion,
as to the formation OF an Ohio and Indiana
Interstate association, to include Columbus,
Dayton, Indianapolis and Springfield, but
the feeling exists that as the time draws
nearer for the National Game TO break out
again something practical will be reached.
