Many astute observers believe that had
it not been for the scandal of 1885 Sir
Charles would be premier today, and if
he really asplTcs to % conspicuous place
among British statesmen his struggles
to attain it Will be watched with wide

Sir Charles Wentworth Dixie was
born at Chelsea On Svpt. f., 1S43. and
is a member of a distinguished family.
His father was q friend of the prince
consort, who made him a baronet and
secured his appointment as ambassador
to St. Petersburg. Sir Charles received
the best education that money could buy
and took high hOnors in the law. He

represent Chelsea as a Radical. He ad-
vocated the abolition Of royalty, and
Queen Victoria, upon being told that
she had once stroked the rising politi,
clans head when he was a little boy
remarked that she must have stroked
him the wrong way.
He served in the German ambulance
service during the Franco-Prussian wal

About this time he married Miss Kat
She'll, a brilliant and handsome Irisl
woman, who was often mobbed will

was cremated, and Sir Charles still at
fectionately preserves her ashes in al
antique vase. Finally friendship for tn
Prince of Wales caused him to abandon

A Remarkable Rejoicing,

A modest little white tenement
house at No. 95 Holsmau street, Pat
erson, N. j., has been occupied for
five years past by three families, the
Iiaights and Whites on one side, and
the Breens ON the other. The COM
pany of the Brecns has never been
agreeable to the other occupants of
the place, and, it is said, quarrels have
been almost daily occurrence for the
last half decade.
The head of the Breen family final
ly became tired of the existing state
of affairs and decided to vacate the
premises. He kept the matter secret
however, and nothing was known of
his intentions by his neighbors until
the afternoon, when big van drove
up to his door to cart the furniture
away.
As soon rs the Whites and Haights
fully realized what was about to occur
they became uncontrollably iubiiant
and pulled ont about n dozen big
American flags and nailed them up on
all portions of the tenement. The
l,rgest flag of all bore big placard
inscribed "Peace After Five Years"
The neigbborhood was all agog, and
soon large crowd of men, women and
children gathered in front of the
house. The Knights and Whites also
demonstrated their JOY by dancing
up and down on their front steps, much
to the editication of score of hood
lums The more discreet members of
the crowd, however, became Disguised
and cries of "Shame" were raised.
For few minutes it looked as if there
would be q small riot in the street, but
a squad of police soon dspelled the
crowd. The Breens finally got away.
but the flags continued to wave from
all points of the little tenement

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

He who is racked by superstition
can never find peace of mind.
Conquer vice today aud you save
your descendants untold misery.
Small and steady gains bring the
kind of riches that do not take wings
and fly away.
An evil deed will run a thousand
miles; a good action does not look
out Of the door.
Humility is virtue all preach.
none practice, and yet everybody is
content to hear praised.
Good people shine from afar, like
snowy mountains; bad people are not
seen, like arrows shot by night.
As it is Characteristic of great wits
to say much in few words, so it is of
small wits to talk much and say moth
ing.
While we are here, let us think
earnestly of the few brief chances re-
manning to us, they grow fewer every
hour.
As the bee collects nectar md de-
parts without iujuring the flower or
its color or scent, so let sage dwell
in the village.
Absence lessons small passions and
increases great ones-as the wind ex-
tinguishes taper and kindles the
burning dwelling.
Times may be as good now as they
ever were, but it is a waste of time to
argue the point with man who has
an empty stomach.
Love is the torment of one. the
felicity OF two, the strife and emnity of
three, a charm that draws together
two beings and unites them by sym
pathy, happiness to be with each
other, but misery to be apart.
Words are wondrous things; they
are sometimes potent for veal or woe
they are winged incarnations of
thoughts and have controlled the des-
TIMES of empires and dynasties. 1t is
well said: "They possess an endless,
undefnable, tantalizing charm; they
paint humanity, its thoughts, long
ings, struggles and faiures-paints
them upon canvas of breath in colors
of life"

A CONVENIENT DEVICE FOR RAIsING
BREAD.

CONNENlENI DENlOB run halolNI
BREAD.
A woman with more sense and prac-
teal knowledge of household affairs
than is vouchsafed to the average
housekeeper has hit upon a device for
raising bread that will be received
with joy by all of her bread-making
sisters. A long, narrow box is placed
on end and provided with door and
a small tube for ventilation. In the
bottom of this is put an ordinary
kerosene lump, which is lighted and
turned-up to the ordidlry limit as re-
CURED for light. On the top of this
box the bread pan is placed and COW
cred with n thick cloth, which is tied
in around the box with strong string.
The ventilating pipe is pnt through a
little hole at the back of the box, AMI
extends up about eighteen inches
above its starting-point. This carries
off any fumes of kerosene, or any of
the effects of smoking which some
times starts up in the best regulated
lamps.
The bread is set at night, put on
this box, the lamp is lighted and by
morning the dough is light and ready
for mixing. This is much better than
keeping up the range fire in order to
have the bread warm. In midsummer
some housekeepers put the bread out
in the sun, but this only gives top
heat and is the reverse of proper con-
ditions. TO raise bread scientifically
the heat should be applied at the bot
tom of the dish, then up through the
entire mass the fermentation works,
and the process Is accomplished in
much less time and more satisfactorily
than any other way.-New York
Ledger.
