GAIL HAMILTON'S BOOK
Biography Of James G. B,aine
Which Will Cause Discussion.
Interesting Autobiography by Hon.
Horatio King w hich Contains Valu-
able Unpublished History.

After The memoirs OF Gen. Grant, Blaine's
Twenty Years of Congress-" and the
freshly published autobiography of Senator
Sherman, no recent production dealing with
with tue life OF public men possesses the
interest that attaches to the biography
of James Il. Blaine" just published by the
Henry Hioe fuDnsaling company, u NO.
wich, Conn. Ii Will have an additional
interest because IL is written ana COM
piled by one so well known III the world
OF letters us a writer of great force and
who never spares, as Gail Hamilton.
By far the largest part or the work is
devoted 10 Mr.. BlaiBe's ancestors, upon
the theory that TO know the mau one must
know his genealogy. 1t can hardly be said
that this is interesting To the extent to
which IL is carried. IL is not importa ut TO
know that far back there were Scotch
ciansmcn of Indifferent virtue in whom
were implanted the seeds OF the future
Blaines; nor, indeed, that the lords of Don

but, as member of n family somewhat

be xcused for this harmless though some

So YOU can readily see what my
opinion is on that point. :,
l am in favor OF giving women all
the domain she conques' anu as Tue
world becomes civilized the domain that
she can conques steadily Increases
But Colonel is there no Danger OF
greatly interfering with a woman
duties as wife and mother?
II do not think il is dangerous TO
think or that thought interferes wild
love or the duties OF wife or mother' L
think the contrary is the truth; the
, greater the brain the greater the power
10 love. the greater the power to DIS
charge the duties and all obligations, so
have 30 fear for the future. About
women voting, | don't care; whatever
they want to do they have my consent
What do you think OF the system OF
an income tax?
There are two things against the In
come tax. First, the system oil esplon-
age necessitates the prying into ousl-
ness affairs of private nature, making
every man tell the world just what he
is making aud just what he is doing In
a business way; compelling men TO tell
me THAI they are unable TO make a living
when on that depends all their credit,
| dislike this Drying into personal
affairs. That is the hrst oo-
lection. There is still another
and that is the collection of this tax, or
rather the effort TO collect it, VIII be
attended with a great deal OF per-
Jury. Hundreds and thousands OF
men will be dishonest They will
secrete the facts about their ousl-
ness: iu other words, make false state
ments to avoid taxation. These are my
objections TO the income tax. l may
add a third and that is the cost OF COL
lectlng IL.
II might also be said that it is class
taxation and that all persons should
should pay taxes il accordance with
protection; that is to say, in accordance
with property. Still, that is not very
great objection so far as l am con-
cerned. :,
As to just what young man should
do in life TO win success, II Is not easy
20 answer.
l think young man should do that
which is easiest for him TO do, provided
there is an opportunity; If there is none,
then he should take the next. The
first object OF every young man should
be TO be selr-supporting, no matter In
what direction, Be independent He
should avoid being q clerk and he should
avoid giving his future into the hands
OF any one person. He should endeayor
to get business in which the commu-
nifty will be his patron, and whether be
is TO be q lawyer, doctor or a
daily laborer depends on how much
he has mixed mind with muscle.
Do you think genius always brings
success?
No. A man can be great genius yet
never have the opportunity. For In
stance, if we had had no civil war,
: Grant would never have been heard OF,
nor Sheridan nor Sherman, and Lincoln
would have been simply mediocre

cerned, ] think that women are entitled
TO all the rights that men have, at the
same time there Is a natural division OF
labor. In the olden times when the
tribes were at war with one another,
strength was the principal thing, that
is TO say, muscle and courage, because
az that time everything was settled by
force. A the world becomes mort civ
ilized there Is gradual transferring
from muscular force 80 mental, and the
higher the civilization the greater the
effect.
For that reason women are now ex-
ercising an influence that would have
been impossible in barbarouS times.
For instance, one hundred years ago,
all books were read by men, for women
paid no attention TO reading, and con-
seQuently all the novels were written
for men. Now the women are the great
readers OF fiction and consequently ali
the novels are written for them. 0nlY
those novels now succeed that please
the women. As result Of this all tn q
literature OF the werld has changed, so
that now In all departments the
thoughts OF women are taken into con-
sideration, and women have thoughts,
because they are the intellectual equals
OF men,
There are no statesmen in this coun-
try the equals OF Harriet Martinnau;
probably no nOvelists the equals of
Eliot or George Sand, and | think
Ouida the greatest living novelist. l
thiRk her Ariaedoa is one Of the great
es, novels in the English language. So
in all departments women are advanc-
ing; some OF them have taken the high

New YORK, January 10, 1906
These are the days when the grip, or
the colds that resemble it, are abroad,
and womankind Is wishing that, as she
has to cry, size might bottle her tears
as they drop. slowly aud gracefully,
into bottles OF cut glass, having gold
shoppers, set about with precious stones.
That is what the ladies' of Pompeil used
To do, and no wel-bred woman OF that
day, or that city, thought OF such
thing as weeping into Handkerchief.
There can be no doubt that the woman
who wished to be thought graceful
could practice q lovely pose, with her
tear bottle, before her mirror, and then
when she sealed it up, she could send
this bottled grief to her best young
man in a registered letter, with little
note, saying: "You have all my heart.
and these are the tears l have wept for
YOU since you left" The tear bottle
would be an absolute proof, and
the maiden, fair but thoughtful, could
write on the outside of the envelope, in
very large letters; "Glass; please don't
stamp too hard" These were undoub;-

that some very fetching young women
who lived then, and who appreciated
the i'm preston made by bottle OF tears,

DINNER ADVICE

Bye-the-bye, woman asked me TO
tell her something about successful
dinners. Here is what | have got TO
say:
A hostress who wants to make her
dinners popular, may have them as
simple as she likes, but there are some
laws she must observe as strictly and
with as much force as those OF the
Medes and Persians.
She must not bake what ought to be
roasted, nor serve tilet In such con-
dition that nobody knows whether II is
a gutts percha shoe or a piece OF Lin
crusta Walton.
She must not have the napery starched
so stiflly that the man with the youth
ful mustache feels that every time he
passes his napkin TO his mouth be Is
risking the destruction OF the pride OF
his life.
She must not count the sweets as OF
the greatest importance, nor should sue
believe that bad dinner can be saved
by much decorated cake, or an elaoor-
ate iced pudding. -
She must not have servant who Is
interested in anything except servings;
he should not smile at funny story,
nor should he seem interested when the
future of OF Ireland is being discussed.
She should see That her coffee Is 's
clear as her conscience and as strong as
her love.
She should not attempt too elaborate
n mann. AS she wishes each dish TO reach
the heighth OF perfection.
achieved, she should give the COOK
large dose of encouragement medi-
cine always pleasant to take. The "o-
man who understands the art OF dinner
giving is the woman who is past mis-
,ress in the art OF keeping her husband
at home. DAB
