graces which will stand him in stead at a

Secret of Friendship. /:

1t mas wisely been said that the seret
ct gaining friends lies not in an elegance
of attire or in ability to- bestoW What
money will buy. A gracious presence
counts for more than these, according to
the Delineator. If one has not personal
magnetism, she will not be generally
loved, however many she is able to bid to
her feasts. II g+3. Q !.

The most remarkable thing about Mrs.
Nellie ]. Lord, Of S,raiford Corner, N. H,
b that she is alive to-day.
No one, perhaps, is more surprised at
this than MIS-. Lord herself. She looks back
at the day when she stood on the verge Of
death and shoulders. She looks ahead at a
life Of happiness with her children, her hus-
band and her home with joy that only a
mother can realize.
Mrs. Lord Is the mother Of three children,
two Of whom are twins; until the twins
came nothing marred the Joy Of her life.
Then she was attacked with heart failure
and for year was unable to attend to the
ordinary duties Of the home. In descnieing
her own experience Mrs. Lord says:

from half an ounce to seven ounces gold

Washington, Feb. 10.-The state de-
partment this morning gave out for pub
lication the substance of the cablegram
sent yesterday to Minister Woodford,
our minister to Madrid in reference to
the De LONE letter. The statement was
as follows:
''There appeared in the public prints
u letter addressed by the Spanish minis
ter to Canalejas. This letter the minis
ter admits was written by him. 1t con-
tains expressions concerning the presi-
dent of the United States of such char
acter as to end the minister's usefulness
as the representative of his government
in this country"
General Woodford, therefore was in
structed at once to say to the minister
of state that the immediate recall of
Minister De Lone is expected by the
president.
1t is stated that up to this time no re-
sponse has been received from the Span
ish government.
Up to 10 o'clock this morning Minister
De Lone had not received from the
Spanish government an acceptance of
his resignation, but it is believed that
this will soon be given and that the min
ister's official connection with the gov
crnment, as the Spanish representative
to the United States, will come to a
prompt termination without the neces-
sity of action by this government of Civ
ing to the minister his passports.
