Missouri paper, frankly and manfully.
"And it simply remains for us to trace
out and profit by the cause of his de-
feat. Up to one o'clock everything
looked smooth and clear for Bill here at
the county seat. Then Hi Pugh, Bills
opponent, came around the polls with a
wagon load of Ben Davis apples and be-
gan giving them away until the tide
turned in his favor. Then Bill's friends
flew around and bought a barrel of
cider and let her flow freely to every
body, and Bill took the lead again, But
it begun to look dark for Bill when Hi
drove home and got lteg of peach
brandy and dished it out like it
was common well-water. Bill caught
up again with lleg of apple-jaclS and d
jug of cherry-bounce. But about an
hour before the poles closed Hi scared
up fourteen dandy bull pups and lot
of pumpkin pies and Bill couldn't offset
that with anything the crowd cared for,
so Hi got there. But truth crushed to
earth will rise again, and we'll get Bill
there next time. You hear us!"-Al-

TYPES OE BEAUTY.
The Effects of Gymnastics Upon the HUI
man Form,

The Effects of Gymnastics Upon the HUI
man Form.
The idea of beauty is wholly relative
and varies with places and times.
Artists make beauty TO consist in cer-
tain proportions of the skeleton and in
the harmony of the muscular develop
ment. We might, perhaps, be more def
mite by saying that to be handsome at
rest and in motion the man ought to
present the traits of health and moder-
ate strength, and in addition to be in
possession of the means of locomotion
and natural defense. This view of
beauty originates in the consideration
that there is relation between vigor,
skill, agility, and the outer form of the
body at rest and in motion. Thus de-
fined, the type of beauty, in a given
race or medium, is an ideal which we
seek to revive by physical education.
1t follows that man specially devoted
to any exercise can not be handsome
This may be said of all the professions
that localize muscular work in re-
stricted region of the body, There are,
however, some sports which have the
advantage of exercising equally the up
per and lower limbs; such, for example,
as wrestling, French boxing, swim
ming, and canoeing with two oars and a
sliding seat. Good gymnastics include
complete exercises and incomplete or
unsymmetrical exercises under such a
condition as that they shall correct one
another, and that the work shall bear
upon the lower and upper limbs.-Pop-
ular Science Monthly.

FEMALE WATERS.

Why They Would Be Retter Than tho
Male, Who Demand Tips.
The head man IN one of the biggest
cafes in this city spoke confdentially
rs follows:
81 am waiting for some body who has
the nerve to employ maids in livery to
serve tables in restaurants, cafes and
the dining room of hotels. j would
prefer, as a man, to see my own sex
employed, but / see enough every day
to convince me that men do not make
good walters mt the tables, If they are
not tipped they act sullsy, and don't
dare TO correct them for that. There is
no curse like that OF tipping waiter.
One man who has more money than he
knows what to do with will foolishly,
give waiter nearly as much as an
ordinary man pays fer an ordinary din
ner. If the ordinary man does not tip
likewise he gets the worst Of it. There
is no use of talking about remedying
the evil by making rule against it.
The only way is to remove the cause.
You ask me If girls Won't take tips.
No. You tell girl she mustn't, and
nine times out of ten she won't. Girls
are better walters in every way than
men, and some body viii take the
English step OF employing them as
servitors one OF these days in this coun-
try, and then people viii see the differ
ence. Chicago Tribune.

The story OF n Hat Tnat Never Grows Old.
A birthday Reminder.

The story ofn Hat That Never Grows Old
A birthday Reminder.
There is a Scotch family in the city OF
Washington noted for The practical
Jokes which its members play upon one
another. The Oldest son is regular
crank about his high hat. He has worn
the same one for years. Every third
season it is reblocked, and after its visit
TO the halter it is always exhibited as
being "as good as new" Recently this
young man went to Europe, but he did
not take the hat. lie left word at home,
however, that he would cable for the
much beloved tile If he should need it.
When he reached London he found n
cablegram from one of his brothers,
which read:
"Want hat?"
AS The message was sent collect, +"
the recipients anger was great. lie
cabled back "No." On his arrival in
Paris the young man was given another
dispatch, also marked collect, from the
same brother. 1t read: "Want hat
now?" This time he was more than
angry and did not answer.
When he reached Berlin, two weeks
later he found his old silk hat awaiting
him, with the eNpressage unpaid, and
another cablegram. "Ilave you got your
hat?" He paid the charges and then,
boiling over with rage. cabled back:
Eyes have, confound you, and it has
cost me $50" hnd the joke of it was
that, in the heat of his anger and con-
fusion he paid for the last message,
but he says he will wear that hat till
he dies, for he can't afford to buy
another.
Another brother in the same family
had a birthday /. short time ago, and on
that morning telegraphed his mother,
asking: Glow old am II" The young
est son was home when the message
came, and asked permission to answer
it. He sent the following telegram in
reply, with the comment that he
thought Tom wouldn't ask again by
wire how old he was:
'"Thomas Charles Dent, son of Hugh
Thomas and Mary Ann James Dent
and grandson of 4 homas Caldwell Dent
who married Mary Martha Slack and
subsequently Sarah Louise Smith, was
born in the city OF Washington, D. c.,
in the year of our Lord 1852. lie was a
homely baby and did not walk till two
years old, and even now walks with a
limp, having broken his ankle when he
was ten years old. AS a student he did
not amount to much, for he ran away
from school when thirteen and never
went back. He has since developed in
to very bright man, having inherited
the ability of Thomas Charles Dow,
Mary Ann James, and Thomas James
Dow; and the family are living in the
hope that he will soon recover his mem
ory, which has failed rapidly during the
past year. He is married, has three
children, and is drawing salary suffi-
GENTLY large to enable him to pay for
this telegram. "-Washington Post.

The women are as tall as the men,
much more fully developed, and fre-
quently quite good-looling. But the
the iron rule of fashion forces them to
hide their rosy cheeks under thick
coating of teu-ja, black, sticky paste
made of catechu. This is to preserve
Uheir complexion from the cutting wind
so say those who are matter-of-fact,
but others tell different tale. More
than hundred years ago there lived at
Lh'asa great saint named Demo Rim
poch'e, who did much to restore the
purity of EOnastic life, which had
greatly suffered under the licentious
rule of the sixth pontiff of Lhasa,
Ts'angyang jyats'o. Canon law says that
when monk goes abroad he must keep
his eyes fixed on the ground some little
distance ahead Of him, looking neither
to the right nor to the left; but the
rosy cheeks and bright eyes of the
women caused the lamas to forget this
law, and great disorders ensued. Demo
Rinpoch'e then commanded that no
woman should go abroad unless her
face was well Gesmemed with black,
and soon tins BECAME fashion through
