Colonel Otis, who but for geographic
al considerations would have been APP
pointed assistant secretary Of war, Is a
personal friend Ct the president. They
served together i'll the Twcnty-third
Ohio regiment in the civil war and in
later years became fast friends. Several
times within the past few years Colonel
Otis has visited President Mckinley at
his Canton home. When the fight for
delegates was being made in California,
Colonel Otis succeeded i'll capturing
several delegates for Mckinley, and
later in the campaign, after the st.
Louis convention, he ''whooped it up"
for Mckinley and the Republican ticket.
Mckinley, when elected, extended an
invitation to Colonel Otis to call at
Canton, which he did some weeks be-
fore the president went to Washington.
At that time Colonel Otis indicated a

MARCH HAS ITS VlOLETS.
And There Is q Bright and Cheerful Side
to Everything.

Edward W. Box, under the title Of
"The Odor Of Spring Violets, writes
most forcibly in The Ladies' Home
Journal on the theme that there is a
bright side to everything-even to
March, the most disagreeable month OF
the year, for it has its spring violets.
1T is true" he writes, THAT 1t is diff
cult sometimes to see the bright side Of
sorrow, sickness ard death. And yet
there is distinctly a bright side. No sor-
row comes to us without a reason. We
never know our friends until sorrow or
illness to us. We never know
what loving kindness and thoughtful
ness mean until we stand in need Of
them. and our hearts seem to beat
against the walls of a cold, merciless
world. We learn something from every
grief and from each pain which I'M
to US. We learn to distinguish between
friends, and what more priceless posses
sion is there in the whole range of
knowledge than this? What develops US
more than trouble? Virtues of heart,
which we never dreamed Of as existing
within us, reveal themselves when we
are sorely tried. That is why sorrow
and trials are given us-not to give
pain, but to develop us, to better equip
Us for something unknown which lies in
the future, and which we could not
meet or understand unless we had first
gone through certain experiences.
1--WE are far too apt to regard actual
blessings as calamities, to look upon
the dark side of things. Some sorrow
comes to US, and we rebel. 1t never &C.
ours to US that perhaps we need the ex-
perience which SORROW alone can give.
Illness comes, and we fret. But we can
not always be we'll. Ailments are very
often given to us to make our apprecia-
ton of good health the keener. God has
an aim, a direct purpose, i'll everything
he does. His blessings come in different
forms. Nor are these forms always such
as we would choose. Lessons can be
more effectively taught in innumerable
cases through sorrow than through pleas
ure. We should never know what a
pure, beautiful color white is if we did
not have black to bring out the contrast.
We want only pleasure in our lives.
When sorrow comes, we rebel and re-
fuse to recognize it for what it SO often
is-a blessing in disguise. We cannot
always have it June. There must be
March. Yet March has it's spring vio-
let's"

JOY to Collectors.
The first part of a remarkable book
on oriental ceramic art has just appear
ed. The publication is the result of II
years OF labor and is said 10 be one Of
the most costly books ever printed. Only
800 copies Of it are to be issued. The
estimated cost of the publication is
$500, 600. The plan Of the book is to
give a complete and exhaustive history
of the ceramic art III the far east and
to illustrate it by examples drawn Who'll
ly from the collection Of the late Will
liam I. Walters of Baltimore.
Mr.. Walters was the first American
to make an extensive collection of orien-
al ceramics, and the specimens Of orr
entail pOtters' art which he selected for
80 years and which now number more
thar 1000 are considered to be nor
typical of every epoch and variety Of
decoration of the p~orcclains of China,
Korea and Japan than any other collec-
ton in the world. The chief feature of
the book to an art lover will be the ll6
full page plates, Autographed and
printed Ill many C0lOrS.
For eight years artists and lithOgra-
piers have worked upun the set Of
plates at Louis Prang's establishment
at ROXbury, Mass. Mr.. Prang regards
the set as the chief Of his
life. Some of the reproductions of the
book require no less than 30 different
Autograph stones, each supplying its
bit of color and design, to make the
print exact.

Well, me and Annie would jest
like to know if you expect to keep Us III

Now, you see, all that could be
avoided if they wouldn't put every
bridal couple, whether they are from a
farm OF a palace, in a parlor fitted up
with folding beds, patent combination

bathtubs and all trash like that and

Turkey Delaying Negotiations in Hope Of
a Break In the European Concert.
LONDON, June 3.-Eastern affairs ap-
pear to have reached the drifting stage.
The exact position as to the armistice
negotiations is not yet clear. Evidently
it is the object Of Turkey to create de-
lays and to discover any latent weak
ness in the European concert. During
the councils of ministers at the Yildiz
Kiosk the peace conditions have GER
tainly been discussed but all mention of
Thessaly belongs to Turkey by conquest
and that there is nothing more to be
said on the subject. The poVers will
have to show Il united and Wy ener-
getic front before the sultan will recede
from this position.
