Finally, however. he was able to get

came out to meet him and supported
him as he walked slowly toward the
entrance of the dwelling. At the door

he sank down, saying that he knew

PATS DINNER.

Pat Mccarthy gave a dinner, to
which he invited three or four of his
neighbors. Pat had allowed his wife
to cook only one chicken. When dim

the carving knife, and, in most hos
pitable tone, said to Mrs. Dugan-
What part of the fowl will you

upon him for services. When there is
band, it is customary to take up a
collection for it's benefit The men
who frequent the smoking-room usu-
ally make up purse for the smoking
room steward, but that is wholly a
matter of generosity. All in all,
probably the majority of passengers
give between five and ten dollars;
married couples give between them
little more than single passengers.
And more is given on the outward
than on the homeward trip, after nov
ices find that feeling is, for all but the
American, a matter of business and
not of kindness. Stewards fees are
included in the passage money on
few boats, but your steward would
prbably feel unhappy if he didn't get
at least dollar extra.

NJ. DERoULEDE, HUMAN PARADOX

Paul Deroulede, the French poll
tician, is a mass of apparent contra
dictions. He is an agnostic, who con-
tributes generously to the church
charities, republican who desires to
overthrow the republic, a peace advo-
cate who favors riot and Instruction,
fee trader who upholds pohibltory
tariff, and democrat who even aids
the royalist party of France. His con-
trariety is well illustrated by a recent
story. He was discussing the boer war
with a number of friends, and after a
fierce diatribe against England said
very earnestly:
Il pray that the British will be un-
mercifully beaten"
Why, thought you disliked the
Dutch" interrupted a friend.
Dislike them? pray that they
will be exterminated," he declared
with genuine Observation-Disclosures

PAPA, BE TRUE TO ME-"

A United States senator was leaving
home. The parting words of his little
daughter were: Papa, be true to me. "
He was at dinner party not long
after. and was asked to drink. The
words of his little girl came to mind.
He felt that he could not be true to
her and take strong drink, and soon
after he gave out the following touch
ing lines.
What makes me refuse social glass
Well, I'll tell you the reason
why;
Because a bonnie, blue-eyed lass is
ever standing by,
And hear her, boys, above the noise
of the jest and the merry glee,
AS with baby grace she kisses my face
and says, Papa, be true to me"
Then what can do, to my lass TO be
true, better than let it pass by?
l know you'll think my refusal to drink
a breach of your courtesy;
Ut near HST repeat III dOSchto SWcSb'
and her dear little form see,
And with loving embrace she kisses my
face and says, Papa, be true to

Let me offer toast to the one love
most, whose dear little will
obey;
Whose influence sweet is guiding my
feet over life's tollsome way;
May the sun ever shine on this lassie
of mine. from sorrow may she be
free,
For with baby grace she hath kissed
my face, and said, Papa, be
true to me-"

"The first wedding at the white

married Samuel l.. Gouyerneur," writes
Rene Bache, in the Ladies' Home Jour
nal. During the Hayes regime Miss
Lucy Plat, a niece Of Mrs. Hayes, was
married at the executive mansion TO
General Russell Hastings. The most
notable wedding celebrated at the
white house was that OF Nellie Grant,
who was married May q, 1874, TO a
young Englishman, Algernon Charles
Frederic Sartoris. The only white
house wedding in which the chief ex
ecutive has taken the bridegroom ]
part was celebrated June 2, 1886, when
President Grover Cleveland married

In a letter to the president Of the
Women's National Indian association
DR.. Mary Pradt Harper, who was one
of the census enumerators among the
Navajos, gives some OF her expert
ences. Mrs. Harper is daughter of
Rev. ]. B. Pradt, who at one time was
assistant state superintendent for Wis
consin and who was an Episcopal cler-
gyman very well known in Madison
and, in fact, throughout the county,
and likewise in many other parts OF
the state. He died in Mozomane some
four years ago and his widow still re-
sides there. Mr.. Pradt often preached
in the capital city, and also to the
grateful folk at the Mendoza hospital
His daughter spent many years IN
Madison, then took a course in medi-
cine at Ann Arbor, married, and after
wards practiced in New Mexico. Her
letter, reprinted from the New York
Tribune, shows that she is woman
of courage and independence. She
thus tells of her journeyings over the
wilds of the far southwest with only
an Indian for an escort:
"The first few days my work was
about Fort Defiance, Arizona, so
was able to get in every night to COM
Portable quarters at the agency. Then
it was necessary to take longer trips,
and with a schoolboy Interpreter | set
out one Monday morning. That night
l camped in Navajo hogan, or rather
kin, which means house. My hostess
invited me to join the family at the
evening meal This consisted of a
stew of mutton, served in granite
utensil of a kind not usually seen; ma
tive bread and coffee. My portion Of
the rest of the family sat around, each
dipping his or her spoon into the uten-
sill until it was empty. The house was
of stone, containing one room, about
Is by IS. The two windows were not
made to open, so when bed time came
and dozen natives camped down on
their sheepskins the air was rather
thick, as they persisted in keeping the
door closed.
"In the morning the old squaw was
up early, and alter performing her alb
lutions in the frying pan proceeded to
wash up the dishes from the night be-
fore and finally to fry the mutton for
breakfast in the same pan. My appe-
tite was rather poor that morning.
This family is considered very well to
do, and it's stone house is mansion
compared with the ordinary brush or
mud hogan or hut of the natives. 1t
is as scantily furnished as one can i'm
agine, there being neither beds, chairs,
tables, cook stove nor any of the arti-
cles considered necessary to the poor
est household. A few sheepskins and
blankets, very meagre supply OF
cooking utensils and dishes, few ar
ticles of clothing hanging over a pole
suspended from rafter, composed the
household goods. The fireplace, al
though rude, is quite luxury, as the
natives usually make the fire en- the
earth floor, and the smoke escapes
through the hole in the roof left for
that purpose.
