Fen short of Her Ideal

When schoolgirls grow confidential with one another they sometimes, am told. describe the sort of a man who corresponds to what they call their
 beau ideal" Did you ever happen to hear what Mrs Stephen A. Douglas was credited with saying on this 5opic2 When I was at school" she remarked, q used to vow that there were three kinds of men I never could be inau- eneed to marry. First I never would marry a man who was younger than I. Second, I never would marry a man who was shorter than l. Third, I never would marry a politician. Well, 1 kept my vow. except that in marry ing Mr. Douglas married q man who was not quite as old as I. who was not quite as tall as I, and who was one of the most prominent politicians of his day.

A Tale of a Tnrkex.

From the swea City dowa) Herald. Along in the night a large turkey climbed from the rifge of the roof or Die Peterson's house to the top of the chimney and sat down, so as to get the benefit of the heat from the fire below. Early in the morning Mrs. Peterson and two children sleeping in the room where the hard coal stove was located were discovered to be deathly sick and the room was fuil of gas. The turkey was soon discov- cred and driven eff. but 1t took quite . while for the sick to recover.

xrotel in . Graveyard.

One of the largest hotels in Central America and by far the largest in Be- lize, Honduras, is surrounded by tomb stones As this old and abandoned cemetery was located in the center of the town, and afforded an excellent site for an hotel, the necessary permis- sion was pbtained from the proper au- thorities. and in less than year a large and handsome hotel was erected In digging the foundation hundreds of skulls and bones were discovered. all of which were carefully collected and inferred in the new cemetery. The ho- tel possesses a room in which service is conducted by local preacher every Sunday. Last year the Battersea Yes try voted a sum of se400 for the pur- pose of erecting a refreshment kiosk in fie Battersea Parish Cemetery. better known as Modern Cemetery.

THE GATES OF GIBRALTAR.
Interesting Ceremony of Locking Them
 at Snndn4Tn.

Quite the fayofite sight at Gibraltar is the daily procession at sundown for the locking of the town gates. The keeper of the keys, looking very like a prisoner despite his uniform, marches through the town in the center of a military guard. preceded by a regi- mental band, which plays inspiring fa- miliar tunes. The keys, of enormous size, are borne a1oft before him as an outward and visible emblem of the vigilance of Britain in guarding her prime military treasure. On arriving at the gates, the guards salute. the martial strains strike up with redou- bled peal Of triumph, while the great doors slowly swing to. and are solemn ly locked for the night. Then right about turn,an the procession marches back to the convent to deposit the keys in the governors keeping, conveying by It's passage an assurance to the peo- pie and garrison that they may rest in peace. Once the gates are shut it were easier for a camel to pass through the eye of needle than for any unauthor- ized person to go into Gibraltar Even A belated officer returning from pig sticking beyond the lines would be con- fronted by so many formalities and the necessity of inconveniencing so high personages that he would probably prefer to encounter the discomfort of c Spanish inn without

Little Attentions.

If husbands only realized what the little attentions mean to their wives there would be many happier unions. IL is not the cost of gift that makes it precious to the recipient. A tiny bunch of violets brought home at night beto- kens the thought given to her even while business occupies his attention, the most trifing souvenir of a wedding or birthday anniversary becomes sentiment underlying it's proffering. Women may be foolish, they may be all heart and very little reason, but the man who understands their nature and caters to it is the one who stands higher in their estimation than the one who acts as though all they cared about was material comfort given with any sort of brusquerie.

Presidential Electors Must All BE
Chosen In State Convention.
HEADQUARTERS
REPUBLICAN STATE COMMITTEE,

AUGUSTA, MAINE, JAN. A, 1900.
To the Republicans of Maine:-Prior
to 1892 two Presidential electors at large,
corresponding to the two United States
senators, were nominated in State con-
vention, and the remaining electors, cor
responding to the members of the United
States House of Representatives were
nominated by the several congressional
district conventions.
The passage of the Australian Ballot
law entirely changed the procedure. I'm
der the law, all Conventions are por-
ton of our election system, and this
ballot act requires that candidates TO DC
voted for by the Voters throughout the
whole State must be placed in nomina-
ton by convention representing no less
a constituency than the whole State.
Hence, all the candidates of party fol-
Presidential electors must be nominated
in State Convention. and / have there
fore included in the call six electors.

Cough Groomed Like a Race Horse.

1t was the habit of John b. Cough for
40 years to carry two overcoats on his
lecture tours. After his lectures he put
both of them on, the first. q light
one, which he buttoned up tight, and
then the second, very heavy one, n
sort of combination of heavy ulster and
the regulation overcoat.
His two hour lecture was an unbroken
succession of contortiops and antics that
left him dripping in perspiration. 1t re-
quired all this covering to protect his
body from~the air before he changed his
wet clothing for dry.
On his return to his hotel, Mrs. Cough
was always In waiting with fresh cloth
ing. A valet at once set to work rubbing
him down, exactly as is the custom OF
grooming a race horse at the end Of the
heat. After this process he appeared
apparently as fresh as ever. He would
eat bowl of bread and milk and always
wanted an old fashioned bowl.
Mrs. Cough was his constant compan'
ion, but did not attend the lectures.
