Napoleon's smooth face was sure
evidence of his dislike for beard. In
some anecdotes of the Russia cam
paign there is a story told of the great
Emperor and poor but witty barber
who had occasion to shave him.
Napoleon had made rather lengthy
detour from the line of march with a
detachment of officers. Arriving at
a small village they refreshed them
selves with a good meal and baths.
Napoleon, wishing to be shaved, the
village barber was called in. While
the poor fellow strapped his razor and
passed it industriously over the great
Emperor's chin, he remained silent
and seemingly melancholy, although
performing his work with amazing
rapidity and smoothness. When he
had finished, Napoleon complimented
him, remarking, "But, man, why do
you wear such a melancholic face?
You should be happy to have the
privilege of shaving an Emperor"
''I am doubly happy, your Majesty"
Then what is it that troubles your"
calais, your Majesty, when [ think
of the Kings upon Kings and Emper-
ors that have died without knowing
what it was to be shaved by me, [ am

COULDN'T HOLD A BABY.

There is at least one thing about
which man knows absolutely moth
ing, and that is the taking care of
baby. If you don't believe 1T, ask
any woman of your acquaintance, and
she Will tell you that man knows no
m ore about how to look after a baby
than the average politician knows
about the financial question, and it's
16 to that she's right. A striking
feature of this was furnished on Cass
avenue car.
young couple got aboard at st.
Louis avenue, the woman carrying
two small valises, one umbrella, box
of lunch, baby's cloak, a purse and
a fare, and the man carefully hand
ling we'll wrapped up baby, appar-
emily months old. When The man
sat down, he carefully placed the ba-
by on his lap, only to oe greeted with:
"Don't hold the baby that way.
That wind blowing in her face will
give her the colic.'
The baby was turned around so that
it's back was toward the front of the
car.
"Now, amt you ashamed of your
self" came from the woman. "Don't
you know that riding backward will
make her sick?''
Patiently the man shifted the little
one, holding it this time up against
his breast so that it's head rested on
his shoulder. But the window behind
him was open, and the anxious one
noticed it almost Immediately.
"Don't you know better than that?
The wind is blowing right on her
head, and she will catch cold. Take
her down right away"
Baby was taken down, and after a
moments thought the man, evidently
anxious to do the right thing, but not
knowing just how to do it, held the
infant in front of him, it's feet resting
on it's knees. The mother was busy
adjusting her various belongings, but
it did not take her long. She sudden
ly looked around and said testify:
"Now, haven't 1 told you often
enough not to let her stand on her
feet? That will make her bow legged.
Hold her right or let me have her."
The last suggestion seemed the only
way out of it, so he started to hand
the youngster over, but was inter
rupted with:
mo, you don't. You said if I'd go
Won wOuld take care of her. and YOU
have got to do it,
But just then the little one began to
cry, and the mother reached for it,
laid it's face downward on her lap and
patted it on the back few moments.
The crying stopped, the man gave a
sigh of relief and the repor ter left the
car.

Thomas E. Bayard, who was ap-
pointed by President Cleveland am
bassador to England, possibly to give
him a chance to retrieve the failure
which he made as secretary Of state,
is reported as belittling the impor-
lance of the question between Eng
land and Brazil arising over the
formers seizure of the island of
Trinidad, and saying that the Brazil
ians, like other South American peo
pie, were apt to be greatly excited
over nothing.
Bayard would make an able repre-
sentative of England at the capital of
a South American republic, but a
statesman who regards with indiffer-
ence or acquiescence the absorption of
territory in the new world, however
slight, by an European and monarch
ial power, is unfit to be an accredited
champion and exponent of the Mon
roe doctrine.
The gigantic Indian empire of Eng
land was built up by conquest and
annexation from beginnings as in
significant as the seizure of the little
island whose loss Brazil now mourns.
The naval demonstration last spring
at Corinto, the occupation of Ven
zuelan territory and the latest grab
at Trinidad all indicate settled pur-
pose on the part of England to obtain
foothold on the coast of Central and
South America, that will enable her
to control, If not to monopolize, the

sure to be greatly increased when, in

lively, the Nicaragua canal will have

Ills cumbersome z.ogic Not In 1t with
Her Good Common Sense.
My ideal wife, writes ELL Nyc in the
Philadelphia Press, is q comrade who
wins me from down town, and who
agrees with ne generally, and if not
1t is quito likely to be because ann
wrong. She is one who has rcpeatcdlv
proved that her impressions are beS>er
than the expensive opinions of nv at
torney.
She secs whore danger lies while
am CROPPING about, Ivy means of cum
bersonc logic, to arrive later ut the
same conclusion.
She does not claim to be literary, bat
discovers at once when an author be-
comes artificial and writes from the
head rather than the heart.
She is levcl-hcadcd, rather than
strong-minded. She knows when to
applaud her husband without making
n goose of him, and how to criticise
without offending him.
She delights in bcnefiting the needy
whom She knows, rather than make
blanc mango for the peoplc.on the Up
per Congo. She does not saw kind
words by long distance telephone, but
anticipates the wants of the deserving
III her own ncighborhood.
She can give pointers to a profess
sional cook, and compels good service
because She is familiar with all the de-
tails of good housekeeping
She can transact business whenever
an emergency arises, but is glad to
turn it over to the husband when he is
at hand.
The ideal wife is also the ideal moth
or. She has no abnormal affection for
whcezy dogs
She is Il good fellow with her hus-
band, and the confidante and comrade
OF her sons and daughters.
She revcres the honest clements of
religion without being bcggar or
hustler for the church. She does not
neglect her home or her children in or
der to wipe out church debt, which
should not have been incurred.
She is the kind of. woman TO on
courage wedlocli by her glorious ey-
ample. She is the kind to make con-
hrmcd bachelors and old maids pity
themselves.
Finally, She compcls her husband to
congratulate himself, and to wonder
what he would have been without her.
She is unselfish. She is healthy in
mind and body, and she is the mother
OF good citizens. She makes the world
better for having lived in it, "and of
OF such is the kingdom of Heaven"
