truthful himself. but he had q horror OF
untruth in others" An anecdote illus.
trates this trait.
One day while sitting in his bedroom
in the White House, where he had re-
tired to write a message to congress, q
card was brought in by a servant.
An officer OF duty at the time, seeing
that the president did not want to be
disturbed, remarked to the servant,
"Say the president is not in."
General Grant overheard the remark.

SAD LIFE OF A BEAUTY.

b Countess of Dudley n Devoted Wife to
G Repulsive Husband.
Georgina, countess of Dudley, enjoys
the we'll deserved reputation of being
not only n of the most beautiful ma
irons in London society, but also one Of
the kindest and most warm hearted Of
the great ladies of Mayfair. She is q de-
voted mother and deserves q great
amount of credit for the manner in
which she has brought up her children
and for the devoted care and loyalty
which she manifested to her eccentric
husband. Until his death her existence
was little better than q martyrdom,
which she bore with the most exemplary
patience and fortitude. The late earl
was many years her senior and the re-
verse of handsome, in addition to which
he in many matters was entirely insane,
having inherited his madness from his
many a mother to hesitate before ever
permitting her daughter to wed such a
man, but Lady Dudley's mother, Lady
Louisa Moncrieffe, dazzled by the earl's
income Of overs 3, 600, 600 q year, forced
her lovely daughter to bind herself to
him.
The contrast between the beautiful
woman and the almost repulsive look
ing husband who was her constant com
panion was SO startling that it drew
forth the hackneyed exclamation Of
beauty and the beast" wherever they
went. Had Lord Dudley been less
wealthy he would inevitably have been
confined in q madhouse, but v dur
ing the closing years Of his life Lady
Dudley never permitted him to be con-
sidered az insane, although he seldom
experienced lucid moments. Lady Dud-
ley was the second wife of the late earl
and has seven children, six IONS and one
daughter. -Philadelphia Press.

A crn OF Paper.

Not long ago, says a writer in The
Realm, I was walking in the garden at
Hawarden with Mr.. Gladstone. "What
would you do with that?'' he said sud-
denly, pointing to a bit Of newspaper
lying ON the lawn. II think I'd pick ii
up and take it away" I answered, aston
ished. "Ah! Well, this is what I do
with it," said MI. Gladstone. There
upon he placed the point of his walking
stick on the middle Of the scrap Of pa
per, twisted the stick round and round,
and with much dexterity left the bit Of
paper in the soil and out Of sight.
"The Duke Of Buccleugh taught me to
do that" he said as we resumed our
walk. 1T is good for the ground"

Miller. of West Virginia, Commissioner OF Internal
Revenue. made public to-day, states that the re-
cepts for the fiscal year have fallen below his esti
mates 81 $1,000 This he attributes to the decision

estimate that the receipts from all sources or IN
