few hours into charming dwelling

the most attractive and womanly.n !.
An American who saw in his youth
an Engllshwoman pre-eminent at that
time for her learning and genius, was
questioned as to his impression other.
"She overwhelmed me with her knowl-
edge; her broad, liberal views and her
philanthrophy opened a new world to
me. Yet the most distinct recollec-
ton have of the visit is the torn and
dirty table-cloth, the greasy carpet,
and the ashes strewn half way across
the fioor.''
Carlyle, who had been used to coarse
surroundings in his early home, was
deeply impressed by the refinement,
the pretty "bits OF plenishing," the
gentlehood, in the home OF the woman
he afterwards married; and the most
pathetic part OF his wife's history is
her heroic effort to give this dainty
charm to the rough dwellings in which
he placed her.
There is no trait in the Englishman
stronger than his love OF home, and
hence he is apt to value in woman the

others. The sailors wife "makes the
hearth clean,'' to show her joy at his

They leave the oversight and the de-
tails OF housekeeping to servants, for

They forget, too, that while their

failure, a dainty, cheerful home is a.
poem which any woman may give to
the world, and one which all men can
understand and will certainly take to
heart.

Why He Didn't Marry.

A story of mourning for dead rela-
tives, told by a Corean bachelor who
was asked why he had never taken a
wife, has lugubrious lesson. He says:
"My parents, as we'll as myself were
always desirous that | should marry,
and suitable young lady beingfound
our betrothal took place. Then my
future father-in-law died, and we had,
of course, to wait three years. ] had
hardly put off my mourning than I
had to bewail the loss OF my own
poor father; necessarily hera was an
other term OF three year" waiting.
When these were up the mother OF my
future wife took sick and expired, and
thus we were obliged to delay our
marriage another three years. Lastly
had the misfortune to lose my own
dear mother, which naturally caused
a further adjournment So that, as
four times three makes twelve, that
number Of years had passed over our
heads. and madeus both the older. At
this time my betrothed fell ill, and as
she was at Deaths door l went to
pay her last visit. My future rroth-
er-in-law met me at the door and
said: Although you are not formal
ly married, yet perhaps l may for this
once look upon you as man and wife,
come in and see her. had hardly
entered and been for moment face
to face with my poor wife than she
breathed her last. When / saw this

A Hero in Private Life.
the Atlantic Constitution.

From the Atlantic Constitution.
The world has other heroes than
soldiers) who uncomplainingly yield
up thier lives in an unequal fight after
displaying such herolsm and fortitude
as martyrs alone can boast OF. The
latest example is to be found in the
sad death of Editor Jackson of the
Philadelphia Transcript. More than
twenty years ago, when Jackson reach
ed the age OF manhood, he was warned
that he must look forward to death
from that most terrible of diseases,
cancer. The scourge smote his grand
father. It killed his father. Seven
other blood relations were numbered
among the victims. The young Jour
nalist was told by eminent physicians
that there was no hope for him. Soon
er or later, probably, between his tor
tieth and forty-third year, the stroke
would fall.
With such an awful shadow hanging
over their lives weaker men would
have yielded to despondency, plunged
into dissipation Or sought relief in SUI
icide. But Jackson redoubed his ef-
forts IN the line of his chosen lifework.
No cloud was seen on his brow, and no
bitter word ever fell from his lips. He
wore a perpetual smile, and men won
dered to see him SO merry, unselfsh
and generous. After the disease had
seized him IN its grip and his days
were numbered he continued to do his
editorial work At last he crawled
from his bed and commenced leader
for his paper. 1t was beyond his
strength, and he was found shortly
afterward lying on the floor where he
had fallen. "Igive up now" he whis-
pered; "send word to the Office that

Washington's Private Secretary.

In the congressional cemetery, one
mile east Of the capitol, among the ST.
lent resting places OF vice presidents,
generals, commodores, jurists and
others whose names are familiar in
the country's history, lie the ashes Of
Tobias Lear. The name OF Mr.. Lear
in the office OF private secretary is as
ISOLATED with that Of Washington
from 1885 down to the death OF that
great citizen. Mr.. Lear was native
of Portsmouth, N. H. When Wash.
ington became president he accompan-
perintended the removal of the presi-
dents effects to Philadelphia in the
fall OF 1870, and was his companion
at his desk and table and IN his pri-
vate walks. At the expiration Of the
presidents term he accompanied his
chief to Mount Vernon and received
from his lips'hls dying words. In Civ
ing an account OF the last scenes in the
life of Americas first citizen and presi-
dent, Mr.. Lear says that Washington,
turning his face toward him, said,
feebly: 81 am just going. Have me de-
recently buried and do not let my
body be put into the ground in less
than three days after am dead. Do
you understand me?" The dying
Generals hand softly rested in the
hanil of his weeping secretary. Clasp
ing that noble hand, which had WELD
ed the sword and the pen of his coun-
try freedom, to his bosom, Mr. Lear
replied: II understand you. Your
will shall be executed" "'Tis WELL"
gasped the dying Washington. A few
moments more and his hand, falling
upon the couch, gave signs that the
spirit of mortality had vanished. The
weeping widow said to Secretary Lear:
els he gone?'' "He is was the sad
reply. .'Tis well. All is now over.
| shall soon. follow him. | have no
more trials to pass through" In
1901 Mr.. Lear was appointed Consul
General to San Domingo and figured
in other consular and diplomatic
capacities, and died in the City of
Washington, in 1916, while holding
the position OF accountant in the War
Department. Washington, in his will,
gave his secretary the use of one OF his
farms rent free during his life.-Phila-

thirteen married a widower of fifty,
and there is no record that her twenty
years of married life did not hold its
full measure of bliss, although her sub
sequent years would seem to attest
the contrary. However, it was dam
gerous experiment. 1t is the law of
nature for gay youth to love gay
youth, and wide discrepancy in point
OF years is quite as likely to result ia
tally as wide discrepancy in point
Of taste. It is not often that girl Of
twenty-five has the same taste she
had at eighteen. The heyday OF ro-
nance is not SO strong within her.
She looks beneath the handsome exte-
rior for some inward graces OF mind
and heart, and the chances are in ia
vor OF her happier marriage. Love is
proverbially blind; he is more-he is
willfully blind, and should be made to
open his eyes. A little common sense
mingles advantageously with every
thing, and so far from being
out OF place it is abso-
lutely essential to safety in af-
fairs of the heart. And in this the
mature maiden has an immense ad-
vantage. She will have struck the
plane OF her life, and the man whom
she fancies and who fancies her will be
very apt to be harmonious to the
highest degree. It is asolemn thingto
get married, and if it isa sssolemner
not to" it is better in this matter to
.sbide wee. !" Undue haste in matri-
monial alliances often results in I'M
speakable misery. Marry in haste
and repent at leisure is no myth, as
thousands of yenturesome unfortu-
mates will testify. Go slowly. The
summer is soon ended, AMI life-mar-
