The Most Beautiful Woman

A writer IN Harper's Monthly draws a
charming picture of the Hungarian
women, here declared to be the most
beautiful in the world 1t is a kind of
beauty that one would like To see dis
trlbuted over all the earth-a beauty of
good health, good temper and a natural
free, sunny spirit which is enchanting
They are not sentimental, these speci-
mems Of Hungarian loveliness. or over
charged with sickly emotion, like so
many Of their more artifcially brought
up sisters, but when they are thoroughly
in love they can give a man glances that
will make his heart, even a tough old
one, jump up into his throat.
The writer in Harpers says.
They are erect aud straight as a candle.
hearty and vigorous TO the core. the rare pic.
ture Of good health and Astounding vitality
They are gifted with small feet. full arms
plump hands with tapering fingers, and wear
long oraids. The sun has spread a reddish
golden tint or darker tone over tho connlex-
ion. The Hungarian woman is not a beautv Of
classical contour, nor does she perhaps fire.
quently present a riddle 70 the psychologist
and ethereal poets win scarcely find a theme in
her for hypersontimental reveries. She is
rather the vigorous embodiment Of primevaI
womanhoOd.
AS her exterior, 50 her whole character is
enchantingly fresh and positive. she likes To
eat well. Is fond Of a drop Of wine, takes natu-
rally to swimming, dancing, gymnastics. and
has not the least objection to being admired.
This is true Of the so called girls Of the people
no less than Of women OF the higher classes.
Tor grace and beauty know no difference he
tween high and low, and often bestow upon a
poor barefooted, short skirted peasant girl
with her face in kerchief tied under the
ohlnl the same enchanting form, the same
magioally attractive glance, as upon her more
favored sister.

The indications are that the Repub-
lcan minority i'm the house will stand
solidly in opposition to all tariff tinker
ing schemes. The Toledo Blade saws
that not one Of them will vote for the
Springer free wool bill. No protection
ist can vote for it without surrendenng
the principle on which our tariff sys-
tenn today is based. Free wool means
free woolens, and free woolens mean
the destruction of protective duties
along the whole line.

How this world is given to lying! A
paragraph is floating about to the effect
that the late Prentice Milford got his
heart broken and turned up at Sonora,
Cal, drunken and penniless. His old
chums there tried to help him. says the
paragraph, but he had lost all interest in
life. The real friends of milford ought
not to permit dead mans memory to
be blackened like this, especially such a
man as milford At the very time he
is represented as being in Sonora little
better than tramp he was in New York
city leading clean, earnest and pros
porous life. From the time he founded
his White Cross Library in 1886 he had
money sufficient to live like a gentle
man, and he had made large sums as a
journalist previous to that, though he
spent most of it, Could a man who was
drunken aud penniless" have written
the White Gross Library books2 This is
sufficient answer to that part of the
tale As to his broken heart-well. il
wasn't very bad broken, as those who
knew him best in New York city are
aware

For the seven months ending Janu.
airy 81, the wheat exports from the
United States were lO7, 593, 1877 bushels,
valued at S112,6ls, 3lO against p ,253..
Dos, valued at S24,O15, us, in the pre-
vious year. The corn exports
amounted to 80, 346, s4s bushels, valued
at $40, l56,097, against 1882 ,998, valued
at SlO,l2O,l6 i'm the previous year.
From July l to January 81, the total
value of all breadstuffs exported was
sls6, 6,474, against S64, 524, 799 in the
previous year. The exports of cotton
in January amounted to S2S, 782, 225
against So, O3s, 339 in 1891, a decrease
of S6,3O6,ll4, due principally to the
lower price for cotton i'm the market.
Provisions and live stock figured for
sl5,Ol9,O4S in January, against Sl3, $780,
ALB in 1891, an increase of 81, 53S, $40.
Thus does Republican tariff legislation
swell the volume of American trade.

A Book of Ghosts.

/ A curious book is that issued by w
7. Stead, of The Review Of Reviews
IN the volume which he calls Real
Ghost Stories" Mr. Stead's aim has
been to collect thoroughly well anthem
ticated instances OF apparitions of the
| living and dead dreams that came true.
Authorizations that were not connected
/ with insanity, and give them to the pub
lie for what they were worth. It is his
idea that there may be as much super
stitlon IN believing too little as in be-
| lieving too much Between these two
extremes be would steer and tind a true
middle ground
So he takes what he calls bis census
of ghosts To the thoroughly unpreju-
diced outsider however. it will seem
that Mr. Stead believes in ghosts before
he undertakes their enumeration For
this reason the census appears at times
somewhat loosely taken. SO old and ex-
perienced a newspaper man as Mr., Stead
should not for instance reprint as fact a
mere sensational story in an American
newspaper without ascertaining its rigid
and exact truth. But he does this very
thing He publishes the story about an
American engine driver" whose loco
motive had been six times upset at high
speed and each time this engineer had
beforehand a dream of the occurrence
exactly as it happened
The truth about this marvellous hap
penlng is said to be that once newspa-
per reporter found himself awfllly hard
up and concocted the story in connection
with a constituencies engineer with
whom he divided the money he got for
it. The reporter faxed the tale and the
engineer agreed to it, though there was
not word Of truth in it. Mr.. Stead
ought TO be careful how he brings out as
solemn fact remarkable tale he finds |
in an American newspaper, without at
least hunting up the persons to whom
the incidents happened, taking them be-
fore a justice of the peace and making |
them swear by all their hopes of heaven
that the tale is true Even then he |
could not depend on some people.
But the book contains enough hair /
lifting matter that is thoroughly well
to at least set a reasonable
person to thinking seriously. He will be
apt to conclude that there certainly are
psychic depths which we have not yet
fathomed, if indeed it will not be found
possible after awhile for mankind to
communicate by thought telegraph. Mr..
Stead recommends that only level headed
persons read this book or engage in any
of the experiments it suggests, and in
doing this he is wise. One fact that
stands out here is the great number of
reliable persons who have had remark
lble experiences.

The total national debt of the United
States is at present 1912, 6l7 1876. In the
history Of modern nations there is no
record Of a case in which a national
debt has been paid so rapidly. The
wealth Of the ten richest men in the
country would, combined, pay all the
remaining debt of the nation. Govern
ment receipts during January, 1892, were
less by $4,000, 900 than they were for the
corresponding month Of 1891. The de-
crease comes chiefly from diminished
customs receipts.

bad report for 1891 That is the in

talk OF increasing their rates. The
amount that went up in smoke in 1891

Still the Favorlte.

1t you are contemplating a trip for
business or pleasure it will be well to re-
member that the Burlington Route is still
the favOrite. Her old established line
to Chicago hardly needs more than a mere
mention for the reason that every man,
woman and child in the country is SO
familiar with the fact that over this line
runs the famous solid vestibule "ELI''
with its splendid Pullman Sleepers, chair
cars and dining cars.
Your attention is now called to our
double daily service between Kansas City.
Atchison, st. Joseph and st. Louis.
Heretofore we had but one daily train
from the Missouri river to St. Louis, that
being night train, placing passengers in
st. Louis in the morning in time for
breakfast and all eastern connections, but
on account of the increasing demand an
other train has been put on and now
leaves Kansas City, Atchison and st. Jo-
seph In the morning, placing the passen-
ger IN st. Louis in the early evening of
the same day.
Omaha and Council Bluffs are put in
rapid communication with the lower Mis-
souri, river points by two superb daily
trains, one leaving Kansas City late in
the morning and the other in the evening,
making the run from Kansas City in
about eight hours. The morning train
carries through buffet sleeping car to
st. Paul and Minneapolis, placing the
passenger in the twin cities twenty hours
after leaving Kansas City.
