Appearances Are OFTEN DECEPTIVE.

The amiable, sweet little women
pass through life without being per-
ceptibly affected by any internal tenn
pests, but it may be because they have
great self-control. There are hidden
possibilities that may not always be

her face one would not believe that she
was q mischievous romp. Sweetness
of disposition she had, and Just n
month after I saw her she met her
tragic death by fire with wonderful
heroism.
The women who always say and do
just what you feel SURE they IRE going
to say and do are not brilliant com.
panions. Novelties and surpri .es
startle and please. I know a woman
who said of y certain young girl that
she enjoyed her because she never
knew what she was going to say next.
The girl was neither coarse nor vicious
in her conversation. She was original.
Il is easy enough to cultivate o certain
kind Of fippant repartee that passes
for wit, but originality must be born in
one; 1t cannot be cultivated. Women
who are not original know this, and
they freely steal the original ideas of
other women in dress and household
decoration, as well rs those concerning
other matters, and pass them of e
thsar own.-Se Paul Globe.

e g This is especially true OF our more
thoroughly American policemen from Ger.
Different nations give to the policeman
peculiar emblems and peculiar methods.
Inc New York copper carries u club which

Tho English policeman regards his Office
with a peculiar veneration. exceeded only
by the W with which he regards himself.
His jaws kept In place by IL strong, black

The LATEST Man in the Country.

One of the LATEST men in the coun-
try is John Curtis, who is serving q
three years. sentence in the State
prison at Salem, Oregon. Curtis
worked in the foundry, and about three
months ago took off his boots on the
plea that they hurt him, and then
burned his foot so severely that he was
laid up. When the burn was healed
he put vinegar on it, and aggravated
it to prevent its getting we'll. The
prison physician treated him, and
managed to cure the wound. Curtis
was set at work again. He worked
four days, and then with q hatchet cut
off his left hand. It took two blows.
One out through the feshy part of the
hand, the other clean through the
wrist joint. He confessed that he did
it to avoid work.-NeU York Woyld.
