Aaron Burp's Magnetism.

"From the time the beautiful ana
brilliant Madame Jumel had been
young girl. and when Aaron Burr
was only a Captain in the American
army she had been more than once
under the spell of his strange fasci-
nation" writes William Perrine. in
the January Ladies' Home Journal
"Burr had introduced her to the cele-
brated Margaret MonCreitf, had des-
perately tlirted with her, and had
implanted within her an admiration
which was still alive when he was an
aged social exile. She had written
of him in earlier days that he appear
ed to her the perfection of manhood
that his figure and form had been
fashioned in the mould of the graces
and that he was as familiar with the
drawing-room as with the camp. In a
word, she said, he was a combined
model Of Mars and Appolo. His eye
was of the deepest black and sparkled
with an inComprehensible brillianCy
when he smiled: but if enraged its
power was absolutely terrific. Into
whatever female society he chanced
by the fortunes of war or the vicissi-
tudes of private lfe to be cast he con-
quered all hearts without an effort {:
and until he became deeply involved
in the affairs of State, and the vexa-
tionS incident to the political arena.

"FouR FEET ON THE FENDER

tDr. Oliver Wendell Holmes definition OF
happiness: Not many months before his
death he said sadly: only two feet nor

The fire on the hearth is all glowing.
"A light In the window for thee"
There Is one who looks for my coming.
Who Is watching and waiting for me-"
o, JOY of earth the most precious!
The dear angel presence of home
Is beside me in the sweet cleaning,
As unto my heart-rest l come.

Our cup is full Of life's nectar,
And we thank the dear Father above
As we sit -four feet on the fender"
In the oneness of hearts perfect love.
So near our souls are together.
They meet and mingle as one,
In this holy and tender communion,
The love feast keep with my own.

Alone I sit by the firesde.
No hand lies softly in mine,
No eyes all tender with love-light
For me with the home welcome shine.
And long with a heart-ache and grievint
For the grace of a day that is dead"
For the .one tender presence, my heart-rest
From my home and yearning sight fed.
Only two feet on the fender.
The Autumn came in its glory,
But a glory had passed from the earth.
The genial presence had vanished.
No light on the evening hearth.

Broken the strings of his lutte,
Silence DER chords he has wakened,
The voice of his melody mute.

HEIR TO BE PRINCE OF ROME,
Victor Emmanuel Will Garry Out His
Fathers Wishes In Spite of the
Natican's Protest.

AS announced the young king and
queen of Italy will be blessed with
issue, but the glad news will not be
officially known for couple of
months yet. King Humbert at the
time of his sons marriage to Princess
Helena of Montenegro stated that in
the event of a son being born he
would receive the title of prince of
Rome. Although the statement was
made privately, the vatican heard of
it, as it hears of everything that
transpires at the royal court, and a
formal protest was made. The pro-
test will be renewed, doubtless, il

STARR TO STUDY INDIANS.
Chicago AnthrOpOlOgist Has Left to
Investigate Mexican
Tribe.

Prof. Frederick Starr, of the Uni
versity of Chicago, has left for six
months trip among some of the wild
and unknown tribes of Mexico. The
Lacandones. one of the tribes he eX
poets to visit, are one of the least
known peoples in the western hemis-
phere. They lead wandering lives
and use crude stone implements and
are as timid as rabbits, leaving their
homes at the approach of strangers.
A village is to be studied where in
1869 all the whites and breeds
were killed and old pagan religion re-
established. The people crucified a
boy in order that they might have an
Indian Christ. A priestess led the
outbreak.
While in the state of Chiapas pinto
a peculiar and little understood skin
disease, will be investigated. The
skin becomes covered with perma-
nent red, white or purple spots.
Pinto is but slightly contagious and is
not painful. Nearly 90 per cent. of
some of the towns are affected.
Prof. Starr will have the aid of
three assistants, photographer, plas-
ter-worker and guide. Much of the
travelling will be through dense trop-
ical forests and 500 miles of horse
back riding will be necessary. One
hundred and twenty-five women of
each tribe are to be measured and
five plaster busts made. The present
is Prof. Starr's twelfth trip to Mex
leo and the last. as he expects to
complete his studies of the south
Mexican Indian.

THE RESCUE.

DEATH" The firemen were struggling
with ladder, trying to get it nearer
the window, when suddenly man was
seen to dart in the burning building
and up the stairs that creaked and
swayed under his weight. A moment
more and he reached the trembling lit
tie figure. tore off his own hat and
pressed it over the chiId's face, and
started back on his perilous journey.
Down on the sidewalk Mamie stood
breathless, white, trembling, for in the
rescuer she had recognized Tim, and in
the same instant she had known that
sheloved him. All that was petty, and
mean. and selfish in her nature shriv-
eled up in the fierce light of that reveia-
tion, and something nobler took its
place-something grand enough to
make her even willing to risk the man
she loved for great deed. and with a
sudden impulse she turned to the
crowd and cried:
''He is risking his life for the kid
Give him cheer, boys; give him a
cheer" and her own voice, sweet and
piercing as a bugle call, lead the wild
shouting.
