Eyes or Mop"

A pretty story of how Henry M. Stan
ley wooed and won Miss Dorothy Ten
nant though coming to us from private
sources, has been made sufficiently pub
lie to avert the charge of undue person
ality. Miss Tenant, it is we'll known,
was the original of Sir John Millais'
famous picture, eyes or No?' 1t seems
that Stanley had asked the question,
and the reply was NO"
The great explorer went to Africa
again, and after several years returned
to London, to find himself the most talk
ed of man of the day.
The thought of Miss Tennant was
still uppermost in his mind, and he
resolved that his first visit should be to
her home. In his impatience for the
morrow he turned over the cards and
notes with which the table was strewn,
and selecting one haphazard decided to
while away the time by attending GER
tain reception.
The first person he met there was
Miss Tennant. They greeted each other
formally, but later in the evening Stan
ley retired to small anteroom. to find
that Miss Tennant had likewise sought
solitude. A somewhat embarrassing 81
lence ensued, broken at last by the
woman saying, with the manner of
one making conversation
"Do you find London much changed,
Mr.. Stanley?'
"No, l haven't found London changed,
and I've not changed either" returned
the explorer, with his usual intrepid
ity. Have you?"
"Yes, I've changed" answered Miss
Tenant softly.
A few days later Millais received a
note from his former subject, beginning:
MY DEAR SIR JoHN-The momentous ques-
tion has been at last decided. 1t is joyful
and triumphant ''Yes!"

CARE OF CHILDREN.

How Infants Should BE Treated During
the Hot Weather.
The Philadelphia board of health
gives these directions in its annual cir
cular:
Bathe the child once day in luke
warm water. If it be feeble, sponge it
all over with lukewarm water and vim
egar. The health of child depends
much upon it's cleanliness.
Avoid all tight bandaging. Have
light flannel as the inner farment, and
the rest of the clothing light and cool,
and so loose that the child may have
free play for it's limbs. At night un-
dress it, sponge it, and put on slip.
In the morning remove the slip, bathe
the child, and dress it in clean clothes.
If this cannot be afforded, thoroughly
air the day clothing by hanging it up
during the night.
The child should sleep by itself in
cot or cradle. Without the advice of
a physician never give it any spirits,
cordials, carminatives, soothing sirups
or sleeping drops. Thousands of chill
dren die every year from the use of
these poisons. If the child frets and
does not sleep, it is either hungry or
else i'll. If ill, it needs physician.
Never quiet it by candy Or by cake.
They are the common causes of diarrhea
and of other troubles.
Give the child plenty of fresh air.
In the cool of the morning and early
evening have it out of doors for awhile
Take it to the shady side of broad
streets, to the public squares, to the
park. Whenever it seems to suffer from
the heat, let it drink freely of water
which has been boiled and cooled by
ice. Keep it out of the room in which
washing or cooking is going ON. 1t is
excessive heat that destroys the lives of
young infants.
The nursing bottle must be kept per-
fectly clean; otherwise the milk will
turn sour, and the child will be made
i'll. After each meal it should be
emptied, rinsed out, taken apart, and
the nipple and bottle placed in clean
water, Or in water to which a little
soda has been added.
Do not wean the child just before or
during the hot weather. If the child be
suddenly attacked with vomiting, purg-
ing and prostration, put it into hot
bath for a few minutes, then carefully
wipe it dry with warm towel and
wrap it in warm blankets. If it's hands
and feet are cold, bottles filled with hot
water and wrapped in flannel should be
laid against them.

How the Linen Should Ee Marked,

In stores which make speciality of
fine napery orders are taken for the
working of letters when the linen is
boxes ready for use. One fancee will
choose two unpretentious initials placed
side by side and worked in plain raised
satin stitch. Another chooses larger let
ters, to be intricately interlaced and
elaborately worked with both solid and
open laced stitches. Huge ornamental
monograms are also conspicuous on
napery and bed linen, as well as on tea
cloths. Three letters are good rule in
case of house linen, one for the respect
i've initials of the Christian names of the
bride and groom and the third for the
family name.

Nothing definite; but he wants me

However painful it may be, you

"What are you doing? Are you mad?"
I said.
"No not now"
"But remember the fine technique. {"
For an instant she paused-but only
for an instant. Then she took some
more paint and rubbed it violently over
the portrait. I saw Meadows looking
round the door and beckoned him in.
"Your portrait is done for, said.
She threw down her palette. "Jack I!
Look at it'' she cried, with laugh
that seemed to catch in her throat.
There is now hanging in the Mead
ows' dining room portrait Of the mas
ter of the house. 1t is not at all good
painting, but Jack gazes at it with sat-
isfaction. 1t is by his wife, and when
her friends suggest that she has flatter-
ed her husband she smiles.
Once I saw her looking at it rather
sadly and asked her if she were regret
ting the one she had destroyed. Perhaps
it was all indiscreet question.
She shook her head "No, sometimes
I think acted hastily, for it really was
good" she said.
"But surely this one is, on the whole,
better?' said 1.
Jack thinks so," she answered, and
she sighed. d.-Westminster Budget.

is perhaps not to be wondered at that
In the legislature they oppose any bill
which requires them to pay any large

Massachusetts now expends 5000,

roads. We have 125, 900 miles of road;
Massachusetts, 80 600 miles. 1t costs
$1,000 mile in Massachusetts to i'm

required to improve the roads of New
York state, therefore, are obvious. We
should have to expend SO, 900, 900 a year
to compare i'll any degree with Massa-

amount now raised by direct taxation
Can we persuade the legislature to
make such an expenditure, such large
addition to the states expenses? That
is the question, and the sole question to
be considered. In the poorer counties of
the state the state itself must build and
maintain the roads.

STiCkLER FOR ETIQUETTE.
The Boss Saw the Joke and Sprung Bet
ter One.

The Boss Saw the Joke and Sprung Bet
ter One.
Of course it was good joke. Hadn't
the boss said that he didn't want every
body in the office running in to see him
on every little pretext? Hadn't he told
one of the clerks that if the latter want
ed anything brought to his attention he
should speak to his immediate superior
and have the matter come to him through
the proper channels?
Naturally, in view of this, every one
was tickled when the assistant book
keeper said to the bookkeeper:
"Mr. Davis, will you please ask Mr..
Hill to ask Mr.. Smith to ask Mr.. John
son to ask the boss if l can get off to-
morrow at o'clock"
The bookkeeper saw the humor of the
thing at once and promptly delivered
the message to Mr.. Hill, and so it went
up step by step to the boss, who smiled
sickly sort of smile when the request
was repeated to him.
"Ah, yes," he said 1.-THE assistant
bookkeeper seems to be great stickler
for office etiquette.
Cs, Slls lSlulHCu I'LL JUuuSOll
"He was anxious that the request should
reach you through the proper channels.
"Quite right" said the boss. "Now,
l might call him in and give him my
answer in person, but that would hardly
be in conformity with his ideas of pro-
priety, would it?''
"Well sir, suppose it is only a little
joke"
Eyes, yes, of course. Very amusing,
this stepladder business. Now, Mr..
johnson, will you please tell Mr.. Smith
to tell Mr. Hill to tell Mr.. Davis to tell
the assistant bookkeeper that his services
are dispensed with. And while you are
passing the message down you might
add that if we have any more of this
stepladder business I'll kick the whole
ladder over and throw it out of the
office. IT. L. McGrath in New York

A girls idea of heaven is place
where her hair is always as wavy as it
is when she first takes out her curl
papers.
Probably no woman could ever ex-
plain why she always trundles her baby

ROAD IMPROVEMENT.
First Make Good Roads, Then Keep Them
Smooth With Wide Tires.

Smooth With Wide Tires.
The movement in favor of good roads
which has at last really begun to agi
tate rural communities all over the
country involves many contributory is
sues Of considerable Importance. says
The Youths Companion. For instance,
associations which have undertaken the
task of improving the country roads are
generally advising farmers to make use
of broad tires upon their wagon wheels
instead of the narrow tires which cut
and rut soft road SO deeply.
1t is not easy to induce the farmers
to follow this advice, because it implies
and requires at the outset the repair
ing of the road. Broad tired wagons
could make little or no progress over
some of the muddy and rough roads
which are too often found not far from
the busiest and most thriving cities.
Narrow wheels cut their way through
more easily, but only at the cost of ex-
hausting the horses which draw the
wagon, and of still further injuring the
road as a thoroughfare.
If the highway could but be improved
sufficiently to bear the heavy tires, the
wheels would act like miniature road
roller and assist in keeping the road in
good condition instead of tearing it to
pieces.
AS an immediate result access to mar
kets would be made much more easy,
draught animals would gain in efficien-
cy and length of service, and it would
be possible to transport larger loads
with greater ease and convenience than
Is the case at present.
The farmers ana the rural communi
ties which they control hesitate to take
the first step because of the immediate
expense involved. 1t ought not to be
hard to convince so intelligent portion
of the community that real economy,
both of labor and money, would be
gained by improved roadbeds and the
use of broader tires

TIMES TEST.

Two lovers there are-I know them we'll
Who learned the lesson love comes to teach,
Whose eyes are bright with the old, old light,
Whose hands seek each for each.
And this love of theirs seems thing most rare
For each of the lovers has silver hair.
His face is mellow with passing years,
But with never a line that is hard o. bleak
Her face is a rhyme of the olden time
With tinge of red in her cheek.
And l deem this more than passing fair,
Eince both of these lovers have silver hair.
Let time go by, but love may last,
As true as ever true love may be.
May theirs be the smile that after awhile
Shall wait for you and me!
All, sweeter would seem life's toll and care
If there We're more lovers with silver hair!
