Women are not generally accredited
with being wonderfully cool-headed or
with having the power TO control their
curiosity. Mrs. Kendall. who was the
charming Madge Robertson previous to
her marriage, considered her husband
her best friend and critic concerning
her acting She never reads any of the
press notices until week after the
performances This is because she IS
very sensitive. and II the notices were
unfavorable she would be too dis
heartencd to act: and if she had been
highly praised she would feel an anxi-
ETY. that the first impression must be
dispelled. Her husband. Mr.. VIM.
birthstone, better known as Mr.. Ken
dali. reads the criticisms and assists
her iE perfecting many a role. At the
last Lydia Thompson benefit at the
London Lyceum, she recited in mag
nilicent style n poem about poor
woman receiving the news of her son
winning the Victoria Cross. There was
crowd of well-known professionals
in the theatre, but Mrs. Kendall and
Miss Thompson seemed to be the two
actresses of the day At the Nomen's
International Congress in July. when
the drama as field for women were
discussed Mrs. Kendall occupied the

The latest craze is the book tea. A

The latest craze is the book tea. A
number of guests-the sexes equally
representative asked to afternoon
tea. and each is to wear a badge de-
noting a book. The book is not neces-
sarily a novel, though the run is on
novels, nor is it necessarily a modern
book, though these are more generally
selected. The badge, which is a little
toy, must express the title of the book.
The guests arrive decorated, supplying
and wearing their own decorations,
and each has to guess the titles of all
the others Some people are very
stupid at 1t, some very quick. And
there is skill, too, not only in guessing
the titles, hut in making the orders

The methods adopted by the new as- sessor, elected on a reform platform Of his own making, whose name, cur iousiy enough, Is Dodge, savors pung- ently of the ancient inquisition. The way the thing has been done in most cities is for the deputy collector to call and leave blank This re- ceiYing TO attention beyond a few minor items, such as "Steinway piano, twenty-five dolls;;" household goods, furniture, chattels, etc, one hundred dolls" the deputy humbly pockets what he knows to be lie and goes his way; the result being that the very signer of such libel is obliged for another year to stumble over the pave ments he has since childhood decried, and stand up for more months in the street cars, whose overloaded condi- ton he has in print 50 violently exe- .crated.

Commenting upon the scenes witnessed
at the New York dock few days ago when
Richard Croker, the political boss Of the
Tammany ring, boarded ship on trip
to England, the N. o. Picayune very
aptly remarks
"Of1ice- e-holders were there to show in
what honor they held the man who had
dictated their nomination TO public place
and could at nod consgn them to the OBJ
scurity Of private life. Office seekers were
there TO fawn before the man who could las
they believed, give them places in the
public service. Those who held offices were
fearing TO lose them and those who wanted
places were hoping for his supreme favor,
and all were there to show that they were
his devoted followers. II not his plant
tools, disregarding or not knowing tho fact
that political boss has but one cardinal
principle, which is self-interest, and Is in
capable Of friendship, but values men only
as they are useful TO him.

Is striking commentary on the subser-
vience Of the citizens Of this great Repub-
lie to the behests Of elfseeking and un-
scrupulous politician who happens TO oc-
cupy position Of great influence In tho
disposing OF public oflices.'

We honor Liberty in name and in form,
We set up her statues aud sound he

But we have not fully trusted her.
And with our growth so grow her demands
She will have no half-serviee
Not to vex the ear in empty hoastings.
For Liberty means Justice, and Justice il
the natural law
The law of health and symmetry ant
strength and fraternity.
As the sun is the lord of life. as well as OF
light
As his beams support all growth. supply
all motion
And call forth all the infinite diversities
of being and beauty,
So is Liberty to mankind.
Liberty is the source, the mother, the
necessary condition.
She is to virtue what light is to color,
To wealth what sunshine is to grain,
To knowledge what eyes are to sight.
She is the genius invention, the Drawn of
national strength.
Where Liberty rises, there virtue grows,
wealth increases, knowledge ex-
pands.
And the freer nation rises among her neigh
bors-taller and fairer.
Where liberty sinks, there virtue fades,
wealth diminishes, knowledge is for
gotten.
And empires once mighty become a help
less prey to freer barbarians
