Here,a Full Dreaa Uniform.

Lieutenant Hero of the army has been creating no end of excitement in Wash ington society for some time past by ap- bearing at every entertainment to which he is invited in the gorgeousness of his full dress uniform. This action, far from being due to some causeless freak of fan cy on the part of the lieutenant, has a distinct end in view.
 He is in the city for the purpose of get ting bill through congress by which army officers of all ranks shall be com pelled in future to wear their uniforms whenever they appear at public or pri- vate gatherings of a social nature. It is in order to carry out in practice his theo- ries on the subject that Lieutenant Hero is pursuing his decidedly novel manner of dress at afternoon teas and similar functions.-Kate Fields Washington.

A silly Joker's Lesson

Some time ago guest of one of our hotels sent old Mrs. Marsh to the South ern Express company's office with an or der to the express agent to pay Mrs. Marsh $50 900 at once. The simple old woman took it to the express office, be- heving. as she always does, that the money was due her. Clyde Glenn, the polite and manly agent, took the note, wrote across its back and sent Mrs. Marsh with it to the writer.
 When the man opened the note, he found the express agent had indorsed it thus: Twill you not try in the future to conduct yourself as gentleman, remem- bering that your mother is or will be an old womanT The thoughtless joker took the note to the express office, called for the agent and grasping MT.

What influence will we leave in this world after we have gone through it? '.None," answer hundreds of voices; i've arc not one of the immortals.

Difference Between "Cheek" and Nerve"
 Many people use the word "cheek" and nerve" of everyday vernacular, as if they were synonymous and inter changeable. A bright friend called our attention to this the other day by mak- ing very nice distinction between them.
 It's idiotic, said he, to use the words "cheek" and "nerver as if they meant the same. Cheek is no more nerve than beauty is brain. A man may have both, but it's not usual. Cheek is active. Nerve is passive. Cheek needs mouth. Nerve very seldom uses one and then only to shut it. Cheek talks and acts. Nerve thinks, waits and achieves. Cheek is sometimes admirable in its ends, but is usually offensive in it's means. Nerve is never offensive.
 Don't ever think 8 man necessarily lacks nerve just because he doesn't ask for what he wants. His forbearance may be the best proof of his nerve. A cheeky man compares with a nervy one as 8 sprinter of 8 100 yards dash com pares with 20 miles go-as-you-please runner. Cheek is sometimes a blessing and sometimes a curse. Nerve Is al- ways blessing.
 In these days, when ''faking" is a fine art, cheek has a better chance to win financial success than nerve has, think But though nerve dies poor it probably dies happy.-Donahoe's Magazine.

 Like . Brave Man.

John Weitzel was one of the boldest pioneers of West Virginia. "A man ab- solutely without fear" ono of the chron- iclers of those times calls him. The man. ner of his death was worthy of that eu- logy. In the pursuit of his occupation, that of hunter and surveyor, he often undertook long journeys alone-a reck- less proceeding when time and place are considered-and was never accompanied by more than one or two friends.
 One day, while returning in canoe with one companion from an excursion to Middle Island creek, he was hailed by a large party of Indians and ordered to put ashore. Without making any reply he headed the boat for the middle of the stream, and with his companion made every effort to escape.
 The Indians fired on the instant, and one of the bullets struck Weitzel in the body. Seeing at once that the wound was mortal, he ordered the other man to lie down in the canoe, and then with renewed vigor, though his life was ebb- ing fast, he pulled for the opposite shore.
 The Indians fired another volley, but without effect, and before they could re load the boat was out of range. Weitzel expired soon after reaching the bank and was buried by his companion. His grave may still be seen, marked by 8 rough stone on which is traced in rude characters, ''J. w., 1787."-Youth's Com. panion.
