An Officer Ln Inc Mnitln.

Did it ever occur to you, said West man the other day, what it means to be a popular officer in the national guard2 Something quite different, assure you, from being popular officer in the regu- lar army Why? For this reason; In the army, if an officer takes care of his men, sees that they get their clothing and pay promptly looks out for their in terests in case they are 50 unfortunate as to be locked up in the guardhouse, no matter how strict disciplinarian he may be, or how he may make the men stand around, he will be popular with them. But here in the guard the rela- tionship between officer and men is en- tirely changed The rank and file, who are men that need no supervision of their personal affairs, expect their officers to be good fellows socially.
 An officer need nct be a strict disci. plinarian to be very popular, but it is only fair to say that the majority of na- tional guard officers, especially in some of our crack commands, have just as thorough an understanding of military requirements as regular army officers, Everything else being equal, therefore, the popularity of the men may be com pared as that of man among employees or among his club equals. mention these facts to show how easily regular
 officer could fail to succeed in the
 and, vice versa, how impossible it

They sat on the rain sodden bench in the Smithsonian grounds, evidently a newly married couple The weather was cold, but their love was warm, and the palpitation of their hearts kept time with their chattering teeth. Her eyes were blue as was her nose, One manly arm encircled her slender waist, while the other upheld an umbrella The rain drops gently trickling down their sp!nes did not serve to cool their ardor in the least. and every shiver seemed to cement them more closely together.
 It's awfully nice out here in the park, she murmured 'l think Wash ington IS lovely city for a wedding tour, don't you, deari"

A woman who has great influence over young men is the young married woman who has been a belle among them and who still has them calling at her home. She is the one who knows what they really are, and if she is a good woman she can do q wonderful amount of good to these young men who admire her and prize her friendship. knowing they cannot keep 1t unless worthy of it.
 Her happiness and her husbands prove the best of object lessons. And what sweet praise it is to her to hear that one of these young men has remarked. "Irs. Youngwife is superb woman, she keeps us straight and does us ever 90 much good It is tho sweetest bit of compliment woman could desire; just as it is the keenest anguish to know that some one We love has done wrong for our sake; or that we have led him Co wrongdoing.

Where spoolr Are Made.


 "Oxford county, Me-. turns out nearly all of the spools on which the thread of this country is wound, " said wholesale notion dealer. The spools are made from white birch timber, and they arc produced by the million in Oxford coun- |. ty. There are many other points in west ern Maine. also, where the industry Is important, There are many sawmills in that part of the state which Arc kept busy the year around saving white birch logs into strips four feet long and from one to two inches wide and of the same thickness.
 "These strips are sent to the spool fac, tories, where they are quickly worked into spools by most ingenious labor saw ing machinery. The strips of white birch are fed into one machine, and they are not touched, in fact are hardly seen, again until the spools, all finished for market except polishing, drop out by the bushel from another machine several rods away from where the strips started in. The spools get their gloss by being rapidly revolved in barrels by machinery, the polish resulting from the contact of the spools in the barrel.
 "ln the backwoods villages of Oxford county one sees scarcely any other in- dustry but spoolmaking, and every one is in some way interested in the business. The factories have been eating into the Maine birch forests for years, but there seems to be enough left yet to feed them well for years to come. Hundreds of thousands of feet of logs are cut and sawed into spool timber annually, "- New York Sun.

Smuggling a Painting Out of Italy

If q usually well informed correspoud- ent is correct, this is how the famous picture of Caesar Borgia, sold for 6OO, 600 francs to the Rothschild family by Prince Borghese, was sent out of Rome. A coating of wax was laid over the fa- nous Cesar, and an artist painted the portrait of Pope Leo XII on the wax. It was then dispatched to its Parisian destination, the coating of wax carefully peeled of, and the famous Cesar now ornaments the Rothschild's great gal lery of masterpieces. .-Pall Mall Ga- zette.

Impure Ice and Typhoid Fever.

Soi.e years ago Dr. Charles Smart. of the United States army, traced the cause of mountain fever to the melting snow of the Rocky mountain streams, and in- fered that the germs of this typho-ma- larial fever were brought down from the atmosphere by snow, remained fro- zen during winter, and then passed into the streams in an active condition when the snow melted in May. June and July. It is frequently the case that impure ice is the agent of transmitting typhoid and other levers. s.--Engineering Magazine

DEMOCRACY'S LEGACY.
a DEFICIENCY OF MANY MILLIONS IN
GOVERNMENT EXPENSES.
One Hundred and Fifty Millions for Pen
sions and Other Large Items-The APP
preparation Committee Will Meet
Soon to Mature Plans,

WASHINGTON, Nov. IA call will
be issued soon for meeting of the
house committee on appropriations at
noon, Monday, Nov. 2Sth next. This
will give the committee about a
weeks time in which to prepare some
of the regular annual appropriation
bills for the action ofcongress when it
meets for second session. 1t is the
purpose to push rapidly all these
measures for the maintenance of the
government next year, and as the
treasury department has promised to
submit estimates for the District of
Columbia, pension and Notifications
appropriation bill by Nov. 2S, there
seems to be no good reason why the
house should not have one at least of
these appropriation bills ready for ac-
tion as soon as it meets.
Exceedingly heavy payments made
by the treasury in the first quarter of
the fiscal year has caused some dis
may among the members of the APP
preparation committee. For the first
four months of the year these pay
ments have exceeded by $16,000,0O0
the expenditures for the correspond
ing period of the preceding year
which means total increase for the
present year of 100000 while the
appropriations for the year are only
$4,000, 0L0 greater than the approx ria
tions for last year, In plain English
that means Gf the estimates of the
committee hold good deficiency on
account of pension of $3.50, 0OO,O which
will have to be met by congress next
session in addition to transportation
for pensions for the next fiscal year of
certainly not less than $3.50, 100000. So
the total appropriation that congress
must make for pensions must neces-
sarily aggregate not less than 1856, 000,-
600. With this enormous sum added
to other appropriations necessary to
carry on the government and de-
creased importations land conse-
quently receipts) expected to result
from the agitation of the tariff ques-
ton it will be seen that the appropria-
ton committee has good reason to feel
dismayed at the outlook and to doubt
their ability to prevent deficiency in
the national account.
