 A Cruel Husband.

She was a silly young thing and shouldn't have married for ten years yet, but sho Lad, and when sho lad set tied down to the everydayness of we'd ded life she was disillusionized, at least temporarily. Her husband was no longer her hero, and tho dark clouds gathered thiel; in her sky-so thick at last that she consulted an attorney ia the matter of bringing suit for divorce. She should have gone to her mother, but she didn't She went to the attorney.
 "I have come to see you about bring ing q suit for divorce, sho said, com- ing plump down to the business in hand.
 "Bless me, ," exclaimed the lawyer, fatherly old fellow, you are too young to be getting a divorce.
 "I've been married six months, sir. " she said haughtily, land youth can suf- fer as well as age. know what it is, sir, to bear the burden of care and doubt; to wait and to watch, sir, and to feel the agony that wives are subject ed to by unfeeling husbands, " and she sobbed convulsiyely.
 "Well, we'll, said the attorney, soothingly, don't talk about it, my dear child On what grounds do you wish the suit brought?"
 For cruelty, sir, cruelty" and her face grew hard.
 "Cruel to youl' exclaimed the old fellow adiniringly, for she was extreme ly pretty.
 ''Yes, sir, "she sobbed.
 And in what did the cruelty con sist, my dear?"
 'Why-why, sir, /" she sobbed afresh, ''he doesn't call me Birdie any more as he did when we were first married. ,"
 And the kind old lawyer broke down completely Detroit Free Press.

 MIND OVER MATTER.

The Poor Reader Of the Astor Library and
 His Luxurious Feast.
 His cont had the olive tint of age and exposure, the edge of tho sleeves were ns frayed as a decrepit toothbrush, and the bottoms of his shiny black trousers might have been exhibited as piece of rare old tapestry. The hat which lie laid on the table of tho Astor library reading room was a picturesque ruin, and his linen was clean, but starchless, and had evidently been rough laundcred at home. The man within these clothes was tall and lank, and the top story of the man was a fine patriarchnl head, with a high, narrow forehead, from which tho gray hair had long ago fallen out in the march of years, and his eyes were those of thinker.
 As he sat down he was all aglow with the mild excitement of the book man, for there had been handed out to him an un cut magazine, that cheerful and airy pe- riodical, The International Journal of Ethics, and as he slid the broad ivory pa- per knifo between it's leaves there was n twinkle of satisfaction in his eyes that would not have come if he had just been bowed to by tho richest man in New York. With him the opening of those pages was a work of literary sensuality, and when at last it was finished ho laid the knife down with a sigh. But ill another mo ment ho was all aglow again, and settling himself back in his chair he propped the magazine against bis poor old hat and plunged into ten page article on Lux ury.
 It was a triumph of mind over matter which would have made old Plato pop off his pedestal in the lobby below for very joy could he but have seen it.-Ncw York Sun.

Burlington desired at the hands of the

Senator Redfeld Proctor was received

tor is properly called the father of this post
his words were doubly interesting. He re-
ferred briefly to the honorable body of
which he is a member, but said he did not
enjoy 1t half as well as he did being repre-
sentative in the Vermont legislature. He
spoke humorously of the trip abroad which
he and Ex-Governor Page are soon to take
and closed by saying that wherever they
might wander they would be glad to return
to Vermont.

The War Governors.

Two men with histories died recently
IN. p. Banks and Ex-Governor Kirk
wood-the former of Massachusetts
and the latter of Iowa. General Banks
had been prominently before the PEG.
pie for nearly fifty years. He was
speaker of the house of representatives
at critical period in the history of the
country. He was a general in the army
whose name was more useful than his
sword. He had been governor of his
state, many times in congre IS, and held
other high positions. Mr.. Kirkwood
was famous as Iowa's war governor.
Like all of the others of that band of
real heroes, the war governors of the
Northern states, Kirkwood worked
early and late, constantly, in strength
ening the arm of the general govern.
ment during those four years of danger
and disaster, and to him, as to all of the
other war governors of the North. was
given great praise, but none too much.
Wisconsin had two war governors. vet we
seldom think of more than one of them
IN that light. Alexander w, Randall
was one of Wisconsin's prominent flo.
ures before the war. We never think
OF Alexander Randall as being like anv
other governor the state ever had. He
was character by himself. He had
the energy and the will of Rusk and
Washburn and the dash of Fairchild:
ne had the dauntless courage of smith
and Hoard. No matter what else Ran.
dali was before he was governor or
what he became after he left Wisconsin.
our state must ever remember with the
most kindly feeling that war hero. our
old war governor, Alexander Randall.
Probably Wisconsin never had a gov
ernor who was so frequently called upon
to address Sunday-schools, and prob
ably the state never had one who was
not by experience and practice better
fitted for such work, though Randall
was by no means an irreligious man.
He was blunt man who said what he
thought and said it with great vigor.
Very few if any of the real war govern
ors are still living; we mean those who
were in at the beginning and had to
blaze their way, without precedent, in
the herculean task of raising troops and
forwarding them TO the general gov.
ernment.-J Wisconsin Paper.

Communication in Battle.

Military authorities appear to be ex-
hausting every resource that will add
to the rapldity of communication be-
tween the field of battle and the COM
handing officer. For long time the
telegraph was mainly relied on for the
instant transmission of Intelligence,
and then the telephone was brought
into active use. 1t has been recently
seriously proposed, says the Detroit
Free Press, that aides-de camp and
other carriers of information in time of
war should be taught shorthand in
order to write down important commun-
ications with ali possible speed, and
the latest move in this direction is the
introduction Of the typewriter on the
scene of military operations. One of
The novel features of a recent military
tournament in England was the use of
the typewriter on the battlefield for the
purpose of recording messages from
signalers. 1t is stated that the type
writer operator was also an expert
cyclist, and had his typewriter mounted
on the handles of his machine Riding
in and out among the horses and gun
carriages, which he did without the
sill .shtest mishap, whenever he came
to a standstill he instantly braced up
the cycle by handy continuance and
pounded away at the typewriter while
IN the saddle. The message, when
completed, was sent to the commanding
officer in the rear by means of trained
