"MONOMETRlC" QUEEN VICTORIA.
She Measures All Men of the Same CIas.
or Profession by One Ideal.

She Measures All Men of the Same Glass
or Profession by One IDEAL
1t is somewhat surprising to hear Queen
Victo ria described as "monometric WON
an" Most people will wonder what this
oddly named quality is. Professor Karl
Vogt will enlighten them. In a memoir
of his lately deceased colleague, DR.. Au
gust Wilhelm Hoffman,, which he has
contributed to a Swiss paper, he divides
the sex into "polymetric and monometric
ladies'" The queen of England, says he
is 'eine monometrische dame" A woman
of this species always selects one man
whom she constitutes her measure or ideal
of all other men of the same office. social
class or profession. For the queen Of
England, says the old republican philos
opher, there existed only one perfect hus
band, the prince consort; only one con-
summate flower of craftsmanship, Lord
Disraeli Beaconsfeld, and only one ideally
complete natural scientist, August VII
helm Hoffman,"
The loyal Englishman will ask what the
queen had to do with the late DR.. Hotf
mann. When she made her Rhine tour
with Prince Albert after their marriage
she expressed an eager desire to see the
rooms in which her husband had lived
during his student days at Bonn. They
were inhabited at the time by DR.. Holf
mann, and the queen found the then Pri
vatdozent at the university busy at a
chemical experiment. The scientist, as
Professor Vogt punningly says, was 9
Hof-mann (courtierly NAM in nature a;
well a. in surname" The young queer
was charmed with his talk, concluded that
there was no other such chemical re
searcher in the world, and this was the
reason why he was called in 1913 to the
Royal College of Chemistry in London.

Zouave, the sire of Franklin's dam,
took trotting record in the third heat of
a race of ;37, at Centreville, Long Island,
N. y, June %, 1861. He was BAY

bottom of the blank. The owner of Frank
lin has been away all this season, and is
away now campaigning Lady Franklin,
Culver and Murray, and on that account
he got man in Sebec to care for the old
horse, and breed him to few mares,
which he did. He has served quite a
number, and they report about all of
them with foal. The old horse was Wig
orOus as colt, but it was expensive keep
ing him, on account of his grinders being
so worn out that he could not grind his
hay, consequently Mr.. Palmer ordered
the man to shoot him, and give him a
good burial. 1t was too bad, as he was
