John Sherman says that he offered and
prevent Mr.. Harrison from having to
veto free silver bill. In other words,
he was willing to infict the country with
his monstrosity rather than the Presi-
dent should lose the votes OF the West.
The result was that Mr.. Harrison lost
the votes after all, but the monstrosity
remained.

The Chicago Inter-Ocean says that
every year the United States pay to the
owners Of foreign vessels S20O0o00o TO
carry our imports and exports, and
claims that this is due TO the fact that
other countries pay bounties to shipping
Nothing OF the sort. Let our Republican
navigation laws be repealed, so that
American shipmasters can buy ships and
material for building them wherever
they can do so 10 their best advantage,
and the decay OF American shipping will
be arrested at once. On this point the
New Orleans States very wisely says:
The repeal Of the navigation laws will

chant marine than all the bounties and
subsidies the organs Of paternalism ever
dreamed Of. and it is 10 be hoped. now

that the day is not far distant when the
laws which have crushed our shipping
will be wiped out of existence"

The Magic of a Face.

In that cruel interview where my lord
Hamlet uses harshest words to the artless
Ophelia, he says: II have heard of your
paintings too. well enough God has given
you one face, and you make yourselves
another" A gentle Quakeress, guileless of
plagiarism, once modified this accusation
in a way that robbed it of all malice and
made it q wise and helpful thought.
To a young niece who was bewailing her
own lack of beauty, she said tenderly, The
good Lord gave thee plain features, but he
left it to thee to make thine own express
sion"
The girl took her lesson and learned it
thoroughly, and now that the graces of her
amiable character illumine her face, none
ever thinks of it as plain. Her great wealth
and riches too often serve as a cloak for
unloveliness of mind or person-is entirely
lost sight of in the affluence of noble wom-
anly qualities, while her cultivated intellect
and affectionate disposition give to her face
that charm which is lacking in features

Effect of a Badge or Uniform.

A badge or a uniform, it matters little
which is not regarded by its wearer as a
sign of servitude, but rather as sublima-
ton of self, the differentiation of the indi-
vidual from the masses. The railroad man
thinks better of himself because of his blue
coat and brass buttons. and the messenger
boy We're dull and lifeless indeed without
his distinctive garmenture.
There is probably no description of badge
uniform which is not uplifting to the
wearer Even the state prison convict no
doubt is proud of his harlequin suit, and it
is not impossible that in branding days the
man into whose forehead was burned the
initial of traitor or ''deserter' gloried in
the distinction it brought to him. Indeed
it is not wholly improbable that the letters
~. S. on the flank of an army mule in
the days of the war added something of ar
rogance to the animals recalcitrations and
of triumph to his matutinal heehaw.-Bos-

A Cynical View Of Marriage.

Celebs. II am not speaking of the mar
riages of rich men OF OF very poor men, but
those of men like myself, with an income
of about g., 600 a year. On that income

rants, dress well and have something left

more dinners at places where one can keep
IN touch with the world No more dinner
is not invited to houses where as a single
man he is persona Grata, and he could not
return the courtesy If he were. No more
theater going, for n married man must pro
vide for necessities before amusements

be the surrender of innocent pleasures as

A Well Trained Cat.

l once had some cats which really could
be Taught to do anything. They were white
Iceland maltese, and their eyes wer.as blue
as the skies in June. Unlike othe.O of their
species, they dearly loved to play in water,
and they would spend hours fishing chips
out of pan of water. One of them, Jabez,
was regular John Sullivan of a cat He
would fight anything and everything The
only safe way to take him out was in a
bag. l had one made with perforations,
which carried on my arm and in which he
sat with his head out, save when l saw
something which l fancied he might posi-
bly, think he could fight, when, as a meas
ure of safety, l would bob his head down
and tighten the drawstrinC. He knew his
bag as we'll as l did, and when he wanted
to go out he would go and take it down.
bring it to me and sit down and look visit
fully first at the bag and then at me
Another trick of this intelligent creature
was, when we were in the park, where he
dearly loved to go, to run to flower bed,
bite off blossom and bring it to me. As
these Iceland cats are the most desirable of
household pets it is a pity that it is almost
impossible to keep them any length of time
in this climate. Like trout, they require a
low temperature. Anything above Is de-
grees is unfavorable to them.-Interview in

A Pen Picture of Queen Anne.

Those outside of palace may feel Shake
speare's sentiment, There's such divinity
doth hedge king but it is hardly pos
sible to those inside. One of the Scotch
commissioners to negotiate a union be-
tween Scotland and England, Sir John
Clerk, could not have felt it during an Off
cial interview with Queen Anne, of whom
he gives this realistic picture:
Her Majesty was laboring under a fit of
the govt and in extream pain and agony
and on this occasion everything about her
was much in the same disorder as about the
meanest of her subjects Her face, which
was red and spotted, was rendered some
thing frightful by her negligent dress, and
the foot affected was tied up with a pultis
and some nasty bandages.
Twas much affected at this sight, and the
more when she had occasion to mention Ter
people of Scotland which she did frequent
" to the duke. What are you, poor mean
like Mortal, thought 1, who talks in the
style of Sovereign,
Nature seems to be inverted when a poor
infirm Woman becomes one of the Rulers of
the world, but as Tacitus observes it is not
the first time that Women have governed in
Britain and indeed they have sometimes
done this to better purpose than the Men
