vocate entire separation from the Repub-

Bornbarded by Letters.

The lord mayor receives not less than
10000 letters in the course Of the year,
while Mr.. Spurgeon Is reported to have
had as many as 800 a day. DR.. Parker
complains that he is pestered with let
ters from all sorts Of people on all con
ceivable subjects. Popular clergy1nen
also seem to be badgered quite as much
as authors Canon Liddon was killed
by correspondence. At least he wore
himself out by trying to answer the piles
of letters daily inflicted upon him by
thoughtless admirers. The complaint
is chronic, but clergymen ought to con-
sole themselves by the thought that they
only get a ripple of what comes like
wave upon editors and members of par
lament.
Among statesmen Mr. Gladstone has
probably the heaviest letter bag, but he
never opens it himself. That task is un-
dertaken by some member of his fam
lily, only one-tenth of its contents being
seen by the "Ga,and Old Man" himself.
But the replies to this small proportion
make a serious inroad upon his time, for
the veteran letter writer scorns the aid
of such labor saving devices as short
hand and typewriting. - Gentlemans

The Fertilization az wtiIows.

Some singular exceptions are found to
rules generally deemed absolute, and re-
markahie ones have recently been noted
in connection with tEscrses xscenfly
established in regard to the relations
between flowers and insects. Flowers
have have to be fe- tilted by pollen before
they can be productive. Most flowers
have stamens or pollen bearing organs
and pistils, the reproductive organs, in
the same flower, but these separate or
gans maturing at different times the
wind or insects are agents for carrying
the fertihzing pollen to other flowers
than those which bear it. This is known
as cross fertilization.
Those flowers only which require the
aid Of insects have color or fragrance
This is said to be an arrangement for at
tracing insects and insuring cross fer
tilization by their aid. But the exception
comes m the case Of willows which are
in bloom IN early spring and often com
monty known as pussy cats" Though
in the class fertilized by the wind, they
have bright golden color and delight
full fragrance, and the philosophers are
at a loss to understand what this excep-
tion means.-Philadelp Times.

Passing of the Snake.

Readers of newspapers must have no
ticed that during the last five years the
breed of newspaper snakes has greatly
deteriorated in intelligence and general
accomplishments. Time was when Geor-
gia and Alabama snakes wriggled along
ON the tips of their tails and picked cot
ton buds, when they entered houses in
the nighttime and drained babies milk
bottles, when they grew to enormous
lengths and performed under proper
training many acts of domestic service.
All this is changed now. The reptiIian
kingdom has experienced a setback ir
its progressive march toward intellectu-
Rlity. AS a consequence, newspaper
writers have been obliged to fall back
upon such commonplace animals rs the
cat and dog.s-Omaha Worid-Herald.

TuRNINe OVER a NEW LEAF.
How Married Man Passed Very Unhap-

They had been married years and wears.
yet never had he gone away from the
breakfast table IN the morning without
goodby kiss until a friend came to visit
them-one of those cynical, time soured
bachelors who find fault with everybody
and everything and decide for them
selves that the whole scheme of creation
Is wrong.
The friend did not say anything at the
time, although the kiss Jared ON his
sense of the proprieties, but he waited
until he had his host by the ear, SO to
speak, then be said:
"You seem TO keep the honeymoon
pretty well, George. Must be deuced
bore, too, when the romance is over"
Then good, weak George began to get
wabbly in his mind and had silly fear
that his friend was making fun of him.
eyes" he said as he lighted a cigar,
''it is rather bore, don't you know, but
the little. woman expects it."
81 dare say !" resumed the friend, ''but
wouldn't coddle her any more if were
you. It's too-too domestic, you see. for
this age Makes man seem spoony and
weak"
Eyes, I've thought so myself. Guess
I'll turn over new leaf with the little
woman"
The little woman, who had more sense
in her least finger than George had in
his whole body, was greatly surprised
when her husband threw his breakfast
napkin on his plate, rose IN haste and
with cackled eta ia, dear" ran off
without the customary salute. But she
didn't say anything and bided her time
1t came sooner than was expected.
George went home at night without
the friend, who had returned whence he
came. At dinner George was silent and
morose, and the little woman asked:
Anything gone wrong todayT'
Eyes. Everything. Lost $40 out of
my vest pocket"
'sToo bad. but it might have been
worse"
s"Then l mislaid some valuable papers
that Carried in the inside pocket of my
coat-it's just been one Of my worrying
days, don't you know"
George" said the little woman in
calm, sweet voice, "don'tyou think it all
happened because you went away with
out goodby kiss? I've had worrying
day, too, and laid It all to that"
"By Jove, little woman, believe you're
right Queer, but really believe there's
something in it."
"And here is the money You dropped
it on the hall floor in your hurry. And
the papers are probably in your other
coat-you know you changed this morn
ing"
''That settles it, little woman" and
George gave her the kiss he had omitted
in the morning with interest, and if the
friend could have seen it he would have
gnashed his teeth-but he didn't.-De-
