A SECOND WIFE
A Clever "Male Impersonator" Fools CIer-
gymeD Whenever She Tries.

One OF the strangest characters Of t,
actors colony of New York is Miss Annie
Hindle, male imperoonator" in vaude-
vile performances. She has led several
clergymen in her time to make her the
husband of some pretty and demure young
woman. AS late as June 26 she was mar.
ried to Miss Louise Spangehl by Rev. q.
c.. Baldwin of Troy, n. Y. Rev. Mr.
Baldwin of course believed Annie to Re a
man, for she was dressed and looked like
one. 1t appears that she has three times
been married. Once she was a bride,
twice she has been a groom. Once she
had husband, twice she had wife.
Once she was a widow, once she was a
widower; now she is husband again.
Annie Hincle was born in England aud
went on the variety stage when a child.
She early developed great cleverness as a
male impersonator. In 1868 she was
married tc Charles Vivian, an English
actor, in Philadelphia, and she lived with
him but short time. He blacked her
eyes too often. After Vivian died, his
widow, having had enough of men, de-
clded to marry women thereafter So in
1886 she married Ter dresser, Annie Ryan,
II Detroit. Miss Ryan died year or two
age, after a happy life with her woman
husband. Miss Hindle did not reappear
on the stage until some onths after her
wlte's death. Then she accepted several
engagements, and it was during one Of
these that she met Miss SpaDgehl, whem
he has just married.

Something else than a rich soil is
necessary to secure large crops. The
principal adjunct to success is cultivation.
The soil must he we'll worked. Muscle
and brains are required on all soils and in
all sections. A soil that grows crops
luxuriantly also produces its full quota of
weeds.

Level Cultivation,

The level cultivation of nearly all crops.
both in field and garden, is to be preferred
to the old ana onc9 popular method of Mill
ing, Level culture is more expeditions,
less laborors, and ensures more even dis,
tribution of moisture.

Next to the principles of physiology

Cleveland would run magnifcently in

His free trade policy, if adopted in
this country, would mean millions upon
millions to British mar ufactures and
British workingmen.
But it would come out of the pockets of
American manufactures and out Of the
wages of American labor.
Long before the revolution, England
resolved that America should never
manufacture for herself.
During the first half of the eighteenth
century the poor colonists made feeble
beginning in the fabrication of coarse
woolens, linen and hats. English manu-
facturers complained of this to their
government and parliament interfered

The HOME.

TENNYSON

Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me;
And may there be no moaning of the bar
When put out to sea-
But such tide as moving seems asleep
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out-the boundIess
deep
Again turns home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark;
And may there be no sadness of farewell
When embark.
For tho from out our bourne of time and place
The flood may bear one far,
l hope 10 see my pilot face to taCe
When have crossed the bar.
Life is not worth living unless you live
for somebody else.
Him that cometh to me, I will in no
wise cast out.-Jems.
Study to be quiet, except when duty
calls upon you to speak.
The kind of sanctifcation that does not
sweeten people and keep them that way is
not the upright kind.
Experience, like silver. needs continual
furnishing; like a growing tree, it needs
to strike roots deeper every day.
Sleep gives some intermission to the
cares and pains and griefs that affect US;
it is the parenthesis of our sorrows. =
