IMPOSSIBLE.

It is something to know ones own limitations. A little boy named Tom my. who is of q sensitive nature, came into the breakfast room one morning and heard q member Of the family ex- claim, ''He is certainly a stupid little thing''
 Thereupon Tommy began to sulk and would not give the reason until thai night. when his mother. in their bed time talk, insisted upon his doing so.
 ''Well.' said. he at last T don't think it's nice of Aunt Kate to call me stupid little thing.'"
 When did she do it?''
 T heard her this morning as I was going i'll to breakfast"
 No, Tommy, you didn't. remem- Der what she said very well. She meant Fido. You know she is always trying to teach him new tricks, and she had got quite out of patience be. cause he wouldn't hold up his right hand. Z
 Tommy was silent for moment and then his face hardened
 No, mammal" he said firmly, s'You think so. but I am sure you are mis- taken. Why, nobody could. say such thing about Fido. Everybody knows how bright he is."

 LOVERS OF GOOD BOOKS.

Let every man, if possible, gather some good books under his roof Charming.
 There is no worthier or surer pledge of the intelligence and the purity of any community than their general purchase of books; nor is there anyone tssso does more to fur ther the attainment and possession of these qualities than a good book keller.-Prof. Dunn.
 The only true equalizers in the world are books; the only treasure house open to all corners is library; the only wealth which will not decay is knowledge; the only jewel which you can carry beyond the grave is wisdom. To live in this equality, to share in these treasures, to possess this wealth, and to secure this jewel may be the happy lot of everyone. All that is needed for the acquisition of these inestimable treasures is the love of books.-F. A. Langford.
 Books are the first and last, the most home-fe1t, the most heartfelt of all our enjoyments x Ac- tions pass away and are forgotten; conquerors, statesmen and kings live but by their names stamped on the page of history x < x But the dead authors are living men, still breathing and moving in their writ ings. x < < Intellect only is inn mortal, and bequeathed unimpaired to posterity. Words are the only things that last forever-Hazlitt.

The democrats of Waterbury per formed good days work yesterday by electing Francis F.. Guilfoile to the constitutional convention. The Hon s. W. Kellogg, the republican nominee, was left so far behind that it must have surprised him very much when the result was made known to him. The majority was even larger than the most enthusiastic democrat looked Tor. The figures should set MT Kellogg to thinking whether or no, at the close of his long career, he was not betrayed in his own household, that is, by the republican partyAin Waterbury. They certainly showed much indifference, even if many of them did not actu.tlly vote against him. Attorney Guilfoile is to be congratulated. He made q grand run against what before the bat tie many people thought was heavy odds. His majority of nearly COG is handsome indorsement, and his friends will not be disappointed in him. He has ability and good judg ment, and will be a useful member Of the constitutional convention. Water bury will not suffer while le is there to look after it's interests Neither Will the rights of the democratic party be obscured by republican workers with out at least.a protest from nm. He may find himself in fastscompany, but those who know this clever young at torney are not afraid but that lie will be able to keep the pace.

Although the address of Secretary Wilson, delivered at Dysart, Ia, on Saturday,, has been heralded as com ing pretty straight from the White House, it is a very weak production. It goes back to the old fashioned re- publican doctrine that the United States ought to practically build a wall about it's shores and conduct it's international affairs along lines that the Chinese boxers would adopt if they could. The secretary holds up as q sort of economic millennium the time when. economically or otherwise, the United States will produce everything it uses in it's own territory, and ap- pears to forget that only q few months ago the late president made the sage remark that i've must not expect 10 sell everything and buy nothing"

PEGGoTY,s HOUSE SOLD.

There was offered for sale at auc- ] tlon at Yarmouth recently building labeled and known as "Peggoty's House. The original domicile is a memory cherished by readers of. .Da- y1d Copperfield." When little David. carried off by Peggotty for q holiday. reached the dul1 waste which lay across the river. Ham said. s'Yon's our house. Mas'r Davy.' The little 1 boy looked in all directions. over tie wilderness, away at the sea. away at the river. but no house could he make our. There was q black barge, or

The visitor to Y armo1th today. hay ing this pictune m~zlnird. will bs ss much surprised to. come upon what Is known as Peggotfy's house as David Copperfleld was. when the original was pointed out to him. The premises that came under the hammer yester- day stand in, a street well within the town, not distinguishable from others 1n the line save for the legend they bearson the fronts eThe only connection the house has with the immortal tene- ment created by the fancy of Charles Dickens is that it stands on the site of the actual barge stranded on the beach which the novelist saw wien visiting Yarmouth, and which lie fill ed with homely creatures of his inn agination. The fact is the coast Of Yarmouth. redressfng the balance ere ated at Christchurch., Reculyer and other places of the southern coasts. is gaining on the sea.

SOME HoMELY HINTS.


 Yes, bread and good bread There is no excuse nowadays for anything else. And you don't know whar to do with the stale bread, and there is so much Of it?
 Now there is ssMumblety Rread'' that the children call for One day. when our school girl came home tired and hungry. she saw the cook take from the oven q large meat pan full of pieces of bread that had been dried for pounding into crumbs. She filled her hands full and ate them Duttered for luncheon.
 This is delicious. mamma she cried. We must have it often. 1t is better than any hot bread I ever tasted''
 After thai there were 1rapturoGs k clamations whenever s'Mumblety Bread'' came on to the table. To be sure we could never get it more than once in: three weeks. says M E. Con- verse in the Boston Cooking School Magazine.
 Than there was our "Bread Brew 1s which the children liked to see made in the chafng dish. Have about a quart of bread dice Drowned in but ter. Heat one pint and half of milk with two slices of onion. When this boils stir in a well beaten egg and 2 heaDing teaspoon of four dissolved in little cold milk. Season with salt and little pepper. if it is liked. When this has cooked few minutes, or un- til the milk is slightly thicSened, take out the onion and stir in the bread dice. They should be served just as they are beginning to be soft, but not mushy.
 Our boys pronounce this dish "out of sight" It always does disappear too soon.

There is quite scandal in the war department in connection with the fail ure of the Brown segmental wire tube gun, which was forced upon the army by the republican majority of congress, in the face of protests from the ord ance bureau and official reports show ing that the gun had failed when rest ed, acting under the orders of the re- publican bosses, and it may Tow into mammoth proportions if properly probed by congress. A sufficient req son for congressional Investigation of this and other war department con tracts is given in the annual report of General Burlington, chief of the ord- nance bureau. which says without any ifs or butts: 'sThis department has been forced to make contracts against its Judgment by acts of congress and otherwise" The acts of congress are known. but democrats have an oppor- tunity to do the country and the party q service by showing up the way those acts were secured and by exposing tnc

It is thought that aIr Wash burn of Minneapolis is rather coming to the support of Representative Bab- cock of Wisconsin in his fight against the steel trust. In recent Interview MT Washburn says that steel rails can be made and sold ill this country at S17.5O per ton, and that that figure would give larger percentage of profit than the millers can make on their four. but they are sold at S2s per ton, and that the trust pays q handsome profit on a capital stock that is more than half water, and ill order to enable the trust to do this congress maintains the duty of S7.S0 per ton. In conclusion, he says: If this is not robbery, I would like to find q strong aer word to characterize it..

Perhaps itswas because its members had been studying the annual report iof Paymaster General Bates, showing that it cost during the last fiscal year $53, ,215,345 to pay the army, an in- crease of $i,3o1, ,364 over the previous year, or that they had become alarmed at the press comments on the an =nouncement that large endorsements were to be sent to the Philippines, that the administration this week reconsid- cred the matter and decided not to send any more troops to the islands. That decision is a snub for General Chaffee, who cabled for more troops, but the administration would rather of fend Chaffee than to go mp against public opinion at home.

SHE D0CTORED HIM.


 We are told of certain quacks whose way of treating a patient with any unknown ailment was to give him fits and then cure the its The d2wSey housewife in the following story was in fair way to doctor her husband into "softenin' of de brain," whether she ever doc tored him out of it again or not.
 While we were waiting at 2 small town in Arkansas, colorad woman came up and asked if any one of the six white men was a doctor. One of them was and she rolled her check apron in her hands in a fussy way and asked if he wouldn't ''jist step ober to de cabin an see what ailed her ole man.
 He found that he had time, and said he would go, and two or Ihree of us went along to see what we could see As we drew near the cabin the woman halted us and said
 "I'ze bin all de doctah he's had, an' Ize Willin' to allow dat I might CT made some mistakes. When he was fust token I gin him turnip seed tea. Was dat right. doctah?'
 II guess so."
 Later on changed to a poultice Of wild onions. Was dat right?'
 It might have been''

 Yes

 .'Wellr'
 Wall, if dere's been any mistake, doan' let on to de ole man. Jist skip it ober."
 We went in and the doctor examined the patient and found lie had a broken rib and told him what to do for it. As We left the cabin the woman fol lowed Us out and eXclaimed:
 "Fo' de Lawd doctah, but what a blessin' dat you don come along! I was dun doctorin' de ole man for soft enln' of de brain. and if I hadn't cotched you to-day was dun gwine to try to harden 'em up by mixin' sand wid his porridge'

ONE ESTIMATE OF ToLsToY.

Tolstoy is a good deal of a humbug He is great advertiser. He goes around barefOoted in the garments Of peasant in order to give people some thing to talk about. Tn the winter he wears sheepslzin clothing and big fur cap, and those who know him well tell me.-that he is not familiar with the ordinary uses of water. He iIlli- tates the Russian peasants in that re- spect as in others. They neyer bathe. and like the Laplanders. seldom re move their clothing until it is GU. grown or worn out. Tolstoy belongs to a noble family of high rank and distinguished ill history. There are many of his name in Russia, and it is an honored name also. He is the first Tolstoy, they say. that was ever a crank, but he is one of the first water
 There is no question that he has done great deal of good by his writ ings; that by exposing the wrongs of the peasants he has compelled the gov ernment to adopt important reforms, but men have been great pnilanthro- pists and served their country and mankind and still used bath-tubs and dressed in civilized clothing. Tolstoy-s early books are brilliant; his pictures of Russian life are graphic and ac- curate; he is master in the interprota- ton of the weaknesses and vices of mankind, but his teachings are i1n- moral and pernicious, and his utter ances are frequently bIasphemous Some of his books are as bad as books can be, but there is no question of their dramatic force and literary merit w.

 H. J. Welch, 2 piano tuner, agreed to undertake the job, and crowd sur rounded the building to watch the event.
 Welch first endeavored to- throw a sack over the eagles head, but this failed and the eagle showed signs of fight. The door was quickly opened and Welch rushed in. He seized the eagle by the legs, but it gave swift lunge toward the door, passed out and dragged the wosld-be captor. Welch was dragged 20 feet, when the eagle turned and a desperate fight followed. The piano tuner was getting the rough end of the conflict, but bystanders in terfered and the eagle was crippled and showed into another cage. Welch was bruised and scratched, but other wise was not inured
