MANS IDEAL WOMAN.
(By Ella Whce'or WncoxJ

(By Ella Wheeler Wilcox)
A lovely little keeper OF a home
Absorbed in menu books yet erudlte
when need counsel; quick at rep
artee
And slow 70 anger Modest as a
flower
Yet scintillant and radiant as star
Uumercenary in her mould Of mind,
While opulent and dainty in her
tastes,
a nature generous aud free, a.bolt
The Incarnation of economy
She must be chaste as proud Diana
was,
yet warm as Venus. To all others
cold,
AS some white glacier glittoring in
the sun;
To me as ardent as he sensuous rose
That yields IFS sweetness 10 the bur
rowing bee
All ignorant Of eyil in the world,
And innocent as amy cloistered nun,
yet wise as Phryne Ia the arts Of love
when come thhstlng 70 her nectared
lips,
Good as the best and tempting as the
worst,
saint, a siren, and a paradox.

FINDING OF THE BODY.
Remains Had Evidently Been in The River
Since Last Spring.

Lewiston, Me, June 2J.-Sa turday
afternoon, Joseph Gilbert, a boy. found
the body of woman in the Aldros-
coggin river opposite Oak Hill Gene
terry, about a mile below the city. The
authorities were notified and tn. body
taken from the river. 1t had hen in
the water a long time and was partly
decOmposcd. Only corsets. jacket shoes
and stockings were on the boy. the
rest Of the clothing probably having
been worn away by the action OF the
water. In Il leather wallet Whfh was
found tied around the body, unier the
corset, was $3.50 in bills. one If them
being a $50 government note.
The finding Of this body is Tobably
the partial solution of the mysterious
disappearance of Mrs. Nellie ]. Allen
of this city, who about s O'cock one
evening last April, left the ,ouse of
her mother after a quarrel win man
who had been keeping company with
her and since that time no trace of
her. has been found. although every
possible clue was followed.
Mrs. Allen was -prcDssessing
woman about 80 years of age. VIII"
worked i'll the Bates mill. Shehad been
married and was divorced from her
first husband. Sheswas economical and
after her disappearance 1t 'as found
that she had more than S30lin one OF
the savings banks. At the the she left
there We're theories of foul play. al
though it was never allcSc that the
motive was robbery.
At one time Mrs. Allen hadthreaten-
ed to jump from the Mair Central
railroad bridge. When she Fappeared
the Androscoggin river wasat freshet
pitch. 1t is supposed that she either
jumped or was pushed fror the rail-
road bridge above the Lewiston falls.
The unusual height of the water dur
ing the season would accent for the
body not being, sooner discovered.
