Why Renowned Generals Had n Nm
sal Organ of Roman Type.
The features are developed by the
mind. y child that is reared amid
pleasant surroundings and whose mind
Is filed with pleasant thoughts, will
have pleasing face. The shape of
the nose and chin will depend entirely
upon the strength and character of the
mental faculties.
At 10 a boys nose may be small and
turned UP at the end. at u it may have
grown larger and be straight and ut -
it may be pronounced Roman. 1t all de-
pends upon his mind.
The Romans had big noses with high
bridges because they We're steady
and determined race Of people. Sturdi-
ness and determination will give a man
Roman nose. no matter how little or
how snubby his proboscis may have
been when he was born. The Greeks
had straight. delicate, finely chiseled
noses because their tastes are artistic
and poetic. You never saw a poet or
an artist with Roman or snub nose
did you?
On the other hand, ii would be hard
to find great general who had not a
Roman nose. Get pictures of Alexan-
der the Great. Napoleon, Wellington,
Washington or Grant and see if they
have not all got big. strong noses Of
the Romanesque type. Yet it is quite
safe to say that If we could have pOr-
traits of all these pcrsonages, taken in
infancy. we would find their olfactory
organs little pudgy affairs. ike those
of the common run of babies. These
men were not great generals because
they had Roman noses; they had Ro-
man noses because they We're great
generals.-San Francisco Bulletin.

meals or performs other common en-
ployments. Or to make the case more
rounds him, just as other men in other
dangerous callings do; a painter. for
instance. who stands on a narrow plat
form hundreds of feet from tho
ground. Nevertheless, the danger is
ever present and all the more ter
Tiblc because of the uncertainty of the
situation.
"A trainer must inspire constant
fear in the brutes. What a power for
harm there is in the elephant. for in
stance: one swing of that powerful
trunk. and he could crush the life out
of a man. but he Is possessed with an
ungovernable fear
Some animal trainers live to a good
age and never have an accident. They
are absolutely fearless in their work,
and yet they may be no Drawer than
you or l when other animals are in
question.
There was one trainer who gave
a wonderful performance with a num-
Der of animals in one cage. He would
take all manner Of liberties with the
ferocious beasts. compelling them to do
his bidding. making them form pyra-
mids and lying down on them. When
you consider how a cat or dog will
sometimes turn on you if not handled
just so. you must realize what a tre-
mendous power the trainer must ex-
ert over such huge savage beasts"
or all animals. Mr.. Beck says, the
tiger is the worst and most treacher-
Gus. 1t is necessary to keep the eye
fixed pretty constantly upon it, or it
may revolt at any moment.

to Miffiintown, hired a horse and

days, returned it, paid Tor IL,
lodged at the Jacobs House over
night and on the 22nd day OF Sep
'tember bade friends goodbye at
the railroad, took a train for Phil:
adelphia and New Jersey, and that
was the last word from him for a
period of almost two months. All
kinds of conjectures were afioat:
Friends and detectives searched
but in vain. Some thought the
girl of his choice had given him
the mitten and he had fled tOparts
unknown. Some thought he had
left the cars at Newport to take in
the PerryscOunty fair and had fall
en- into the company of tOughs who
wanted to rob MIN and when he re-
sisted they killed him and threw
him into the river Others felt
certain that he had been beguiled
at Philadelphia by confidence men
and had become their victim and
that they had been hisdeath. All
such cOnjectures were freely men
toned, not one of which was cor
rect, but fate still more singular
than those cOnjectured overlook
him. He has returned to his
friends at Cranberry, n. j., and
relates tale that is startling i'm all

GARRET A. Hobart, Vice President
of the United States, died at s o'clock,
last Tuesday morning, November 2I g.,
at his home in New Jersey, aged SIS
years of complication of diseases,
caused by an impaired stomach. He
was born in 1874. He received a
liberal education, taught school, read
law, engaged in busineas and when
elected to the Vice Presidency, was
an officer in sixty corporations. He
became a rich man and entertained
lavishly at Washington. He was an
efficient officer and the Senate will
miss him. When the news of his
death was received at this place the
County flag was displayed at half
mast. The funeral will take place on
Saturday afternoon.
A REPORT is af1oat that ex- President
Cleveland is to have a special chair
inPoliticll E,,n omy in Princeton
University. American young men
at school at Princeton will be hard
to indoctrinate with Mr.. Cleveland s
notions of free trade There is some
thing quite ethereal about a profes
sor In college chair theoriziug on
the equality of nations, exchanging
their manufactured articles and agri
cultural products free of duty or tar
if, and that may come to pass when
the conditions of all nations are the
same What nice thing to theorize
on when the whole world is a great
brotherhood of nations, but unfortu
nately that will not be until the ad
vent of the Millennial Dawn So fa1
the MilleDisl Dawn has proven itself
myth. Ii will be time enough to
advocate free trade doctrines once
the MilleDial Dawn period has been
ushered in. Till then every nation
must take care Of itself according to
its own conditions and the conditions
Of surrounding nations. President
Cleveland had his tariff views to a
certain degree put into practical op-
Grafton when he was President of the
United States. It is not necessary
to state the effect upon the business
OF the country. However the mai
agement of the Princeton school
have the right to establish chairs to
suit themselves. and Mr.. Cleveland
would make capable doctor of Ger
tain doctrines.
