Davis. her son, has made his meteoric
hit by quite other qualities. He is con-
fident, sclf-asscrtive and positive in all
his ways. His friends call him Dick
and say that it is only natural he should
be rather masterful in his ways con-
sidering his sudden success. They add:
Hes good fellow. though"
Clarke Davis. the head of the family,
seems to be the golden mean between shy.
ne IS and self-assertivcness. His manners
arc those of kind-hearted gentleman,
whom the habit of authority has
ripened into perfect dignity Of bearing
without ''uppishness." I've never heard
any newspaper man. printer or pub
Usher or writer. speak Of him in other
terms than those of warmest common
dation.
It's great pity to make such man
keynote sounder. He cannot possibly
act in that capacity without getting
some bruises The selection is the more
singular from the fact that neither Mr..
Davis nor the Ledger has ever been
reckoned as political elements TO any
great extent.

Daily is familiar. The advancing years

upon national holidays the old man. at

ever the flag was raised by the veteran
he was escorted by the Washington
continental guards, and the occasions
were always pleasing and something

AGES At WHICH MEN MARRY.
Artisans Take the Plunge Early In Lie.
Professional Men at About Thirty.

Artisans Take the Plunge Early In Lie.
Professional Men at About Thirty.
Statistics show that law of chances
governs in the vast ma jority of cases the
ages at which men marry who are en-
gagged in certain occupations. Work
men and artisans take unto themselves
wives at an earlier age than those whose
yocations are of q more intellectual
mind Thus. miners, textile factory
hands, laborers and artisans marry at
an average OF twenty-five years. OF
these the miners are first in the field,
more than one hundred of every one
thousand Of them securing wives before
they have become of age. Workers in
textile fabrics run them close. Then
come shoema!1ers and tailors, and they
are followed by artisans and laborers.
Farmers and farmers SONS consider
twenty-five carly enough Commercial
clerks seek the pleasures of matrimony
at twenty-six. Shopkeepers and shop
men postpo ne the rapture little while
longer. Professional men and men Of
independent means rarely care to incum-
Der themselves even with SO delightful
burden as 4 wife until they have toed
the line of over thirty years. Though
the rich marry at a more ripe age than
the working fraternity The New York
Ledger finds that they continue marry
ing until long after the last named have
ceased to wed. Whereas fourteen min
ers and twenty-five artisans in every
thousand marry between the ages Of
thirty-fve and forty nearly hundred
Of the independent and professional
class do It is explained in this way:
The rich like to see something of the
world and pleasures before settling
down to sober matrimony. A laborer
has neither desire nor opportunity for
it. When ne has a house of his own
and wife to look after it for him he
has attained perhaps to the height Of
his ambition. 1t is said a man is neither
physically nor mentally mature until
he is thirty, and if this is true it stands
TO reason a man at that age should be
better fitted for the duties of a husband
and father than STRIPPING Of twenty
one.

Wanted to Honor Him.

Sir Richard Burton was exploring an
unknown corner of Afghanistan and
had adopted the disguise of Moham-
meGan fakir. He played his part so
well in one village chat the inha bitants
formed a very high idea of his sanctity.
Naturally he was pluming himself on
his success when the elders came pri-
vately 20 him one night and begged him
to 60 away at once.
''Do not the people like me?" asked
Burton, in great surprise.
Indeed they do" was the reply.
They were simply enchanted with his
holiness. Indeed. they were consider
ing whether it would not be q good
thing to possess his tomb
Sir Richard made the best of his speed
