Love Making on the stage.

"The art of making love on the stage
is one that few actors acquire" said an
old Thespian. "a woman naturally
clings to man with grace, grasping his
arm with cleverly implied passion or
tenderly nesting on his bosom. But a
man doesn't get on to the Rstheticism Of
the thing with the same ease and grace
Harry Lacy was a dream of a lover
though. He had trick of weaving his
arms about woman with a sinuous Sc
1uctive movement that brought little
lump into the throat of every woman in
the audience. He always preferred ap-
preaching woman from behind and
then drawing her back into arms that
seemed made for that purpose. Hoff
isn't bad lover by any means. Ask the
st. Louis girls if they don't think he
makes very few false moves.
Funny thing, while on this topic,
but you know when Barrymore was
supporting Langtry they hated each
other worse than poison. He declares
she would put pins in her bodice to stick
him, and they kept up regular quarrel
the whole time they We're billing and
cooling and embracing in most ardent
fashion. Don't hold me SO tight, sir;
you have evidently never had your
arms around lady Langtry would
say in a whisper. If You knew how
thoroughly tlistasteful this is to me YOU
would never accuse me Of getting near
you, lie would reply. Do people ever
make love on the stage? Not that l
know Of; it is al purely business.

How Greeley Helped Lincoln.

"In McClure's Lincoln and Men of
War Tia1es,.I see," said aged Charles
Wistxr of Germantown, yesterday.
"that he colonel gives Andrew Curtin a
great deal of credit for Lincoln's nomi
nation at Chicago in 1860. sat in a
chair beside Colonel Mcclure in that
convention, and think Curtin and all
others were totally overshadowed by
Horace Greeley. Greeley bore Seward
a bitter grudge He said he had made
Seward governor, and he thought him
ungrateful. On Stewards refusal to act
as he wished, Greeley declared, My time
will come at last When the conven-
ton time arrived we all saw what
seemed to be band of soldiers march
ing up the street What was it but old
Horace Greeley in his famous plug hat
and white coat stalking along after
brass band at the head of the New York
delegation. They were the pick and
flower of the state too. They were given
a rousing reception in the convention
hall.
"Greeley had corresponded with the
ablest Republicans throughout the
Union, and for two years had been
planning against Stewards ambition.
When the battle was fought and Lincoln
was nominated Greeley came down
stairs from his room in the hotel with
his carpetbag in his hand AS he bad,
goodby his words were, My mission is
accomplished. "-Philadelphia Record.

There is social equality in western
country towns that prevails nowhere
else, and the daughters of the blacksmith
are quite as prominent as the daughters
Of the banker, providing they behave as
well, which they are likely to do, as
they all grow up together and are edu-
Gated in the same schools. The only
social test In the west is good conduct.

A DUEL FOR BLOOD.
A Young French officer Who. Once In

A Young French officer who. Once In
for II, Carried II to the End.
In regiment stationed ut Marseilles
the captain of one of the troops. accord
ing to the New York Recorder, was n
notorious bully. He took special de-
light in torturing the youngest Of his
lieutenants, a bright, laughter-loving
lad, who was the delight of the regi-
ment-officers and men. One day after
mess he grossly insulted the boy and
followed it up by calling him a liar and
slapping his face. The lieutenant
flushed and left the room. He had pre-
viously shown his courage at Algiers.
and his comrades could not understand
why he should tolerate such continued
insults They followed him 10 his
quarters and told him that If he did not
call out his enemy he would have TO 20
to Coventry. The young officer eS-
planned that he had strong religious
scruples about dueling and could not
conscientiously go out
Finally the colonel of the regiment
sent him the alternative-either fight
or leave the service. The boy then
agreed, on condition that the fight
should take place with pistols and over
n handkerchief One Of the weapons
was to be loaded and the other unload
ed. They were TO be chosen by lot
The men stood up. each holding the
edge of a handkerchief. At the signal
the captain pulled the trigger. when il
was found that he held the unloaded
pistol.
All eyes were now fixed upon the
calm, resolute. fair-headed boy The
spectators were confident that. as he held
his adversary in his power. he would
either discharge his pistol in the air or
not shoot at all But not so. He took
deliberate aim and, placing the muz-
zle of his pistol as near the other mans
face as he could reach. blew his brains
out. Then, leaning over the PROSTATE
form of his enemy, he dipped "a hand
lxerchief in the blood and smeared the
face with it, Then with exultation he
turned to those in the field and said:
''Therel do you consider that | have
wiped out the blow | received?" lie
then strode from the ground and that
evening sent in his resignation. Since
that incident there has not been so
much bullying or dueling in any reg
iment of the French army.

APPLYING MANURE
How TO secure the Best Results from
Meadows and Pastures.

How TO secure the Best Results from
Meadows and Pastures
During the latter part OF the fall and
early winter is one Of the best seasons
for applying manure TO grass lands
There are perhaps two advantages i'm
this; one is that during the winter the
rain and melting show win aid maseri-
ally TO carry the soluble portions into
the soil in n condition TO be used by the
growing plants. and the other Is that
the coarser or insoluble portions that
remain on the surface viii act a. q
mulch and help materially 10 prevent
injury by thawing and freezing. IL Is
often the case that both the meadows
and pastures are cropped 50 close that
the plants are injured very seriously
by the thawing and freezing
One OF the best plans Of manuring Is
by applying on the grass lands OF
course where this Is done n regular svs-
TEN Of rotation should be followed up
At the same time with good manage
ment and proper msnuring land may
be kept in grass for several years with
out change
With both meadows and pastures. by
keeping the soil rich a better growth
can be secured. and this implies the
keeping Of more stock and the making
of more manure
II manure is applied early 10 grass. -
viii WORK down on the soil SO that IL
will not interfere with the growth of
the grass the next spring However.
II applied in large Jumps some damage
may be done to the plants by smother
ing them BY little care I'm spreaA-
ing. SO that it will be scattered evenly
over the surface. this may be avoided
OF course care must be taken not TO
haul out when the soil is soft as consSd-
cradle damage win he done In this
way. But there viii be plenty of op-
portunity for hauling out manure dur
ing the winter onto the meadows md
pastures. when no injury win be done
by manuring and the soil IS in GOOD
condition 10 derive the benefit from
the application The finer the manure.
and the more evenly 10 Is spread. the
better viii be the results secured "

California Girl.
That anyone should starve in the

the sufferer is a strong and willing girl.
in n city where domestic help i hard to

Yet such was the experience Of q young
woman the other day in san Francisco.
She actually tainted on the street. and
was well-nigh unto death before reviv-
ing at the hospital, and one physician
SAYS there is nothing whatever the
matter with her but starvation She
is but twenty-five years old and Vallejo

she felt herself q burden at'homc. 50
she went TO San Francisco. took "A little

less, living for several days on tea and
an occasional scrap Of bread. till az last

her up on the street thought she was q

She revived. got on to the street again
and tainted. Two women came up and
said: ''Oh, that's too bad" and were
very kind

''No."

''No; the policemen brought me 10

hung over his brow, while a grizzled
beard tangled and wide reaching COW
cred his entire breast His form was
pitifully ensaciated, and it would seem
to have been a needless precaution to
pinion his arms, so near deaths door

But rifle shot rang out clear and
sharp, and the man fell backward like

they fled dismayed from the spot, think

had suddenly fallen upon them.
The white captive was quickly re-

ground.

closely TO her bosom, ''and another lost
