SHE ORDERS HIS CLOTHES
And Takes Great Pains to Have He
Husband Properly Dressed.


The wife of a man who served with
distinction as Il cabinet officer during
a recent administration entered 4 tailor
shop near Fifth avenue a week ago
and said to the proprietor:
Il am Mrs. So-and-so. and l don't sup
pose that women come into your shop
very often"
"A good many women help their bus-
bands to select their Clothes" said the
proprietor.
"Well, l am glad to hear that" said
the woman. Il have bought my hus-
bands clothes for him ever since we
were married. and if did not look out
for them he would not have any
clothes. He never thinks of them.
Didn't even when he was in Washing
ton, though he was always properly
dressed. Now l want some spring
clothes for my husband. I will select
the samples for three suits, and l will
tell you just how to make them. When
my husband comes TO get measured,
don't pay any attention to his orders
about the clothes if he gives any. If
he ordered his own clothes, he would
not be suited anyway"
The proprietor found that this wo-
man knew as much as the average
man about mems clothes. and he ac-
cepted her directions. On the follow
ing day, when her husband came in.
the proprietor recognized him from his
pictures and said:
'Mr. So-and-so, your wife selected
goods for three suits of clothes for you
yesterday, and if you will step back !
will show you the patterns"
Young man." said the ex-cabinet
officer, Il would not dare to interfere
with my wife's selections. Just take
my measure as quickly as you can and
make the clothes as directed"
After the measurements had been
made the ex-cabinet minister hurried
out without asking what style of suits
had been ordered for him.-New York
Sun.

Some men who claim to love and

who helped for four long years to
shoot the daylight out OF them"
Continuing the same paper says:
A man who fought the south and
helped to wreck the happy homes
of thousands of people in the south
and made many a widow and or
phan to mourn the loss of loved
ones, is not in a very good position
to say to a true southerner: l am
the man for your people to elect;
you are not the right kind of dem
ocrat.' 1t should be no trouble for
a good old southerner who fought
the lost cause or whose father or
brother lost his life or limb. to de-
eide his vote. Who knows but that
a bullet from Col. Marcum's gun
brought sadness in that home."

Wheeler will be given no military as
signment under his commission as bri-
gadier general Of regulars, but that he
will be placed on the retired list for age
within the next few days. This plan
Of action, it is said, is in accordance
with an understanding reached between
the president and General Wheeler.
The retirement Of General Wheeler
will create a vacancy in the grade Of
brigadier general which will probably
be filled by the appointment Of one Of
the officers Of the army who have par
ticularly distinguished themselves in

ing claims for preferment in this direc-
ton. These are: Generals Davis,
Chaffee, Hughes, Wheaton, Bates and
Schwan, all of whom have rendered
conspicuous military service. They are
all colonels in the regular army and
brigadier generals OF volunteers. There
is an impression that General Davis,
military governor Of Porto Rico, stands
the best chance Of securing the star.
