Last Wednesday night a thief en-
tered the home of Mr.. J. N,ckerson
watch and chain, a gold locket and
a breast pin. The watch is valued
at 500 and has Waltham move
ment. The thief entered by cut
ting the blinds of a window. The
culprit left no clue which could
lead to his arrest, and at this time
there is no reason to believe that
he will be caught.

Two young men once started in life
with equal prospects. One of them had
a yearning to see the world but the
other had no desire to stray far from
home. He said his native township
was good enough for him.
The man who wanted to see things
started out, and after many years and
much travelling, during which he had
looked upon most of the wonders of
the globe, he was arrested one day as
tramp, and because he had neither
money nor friends he was "sent up"
as common vagrant.
The man who said home was good
enough for him sat around most of the
time and played checkers with old peo-
pie who had nothing else to do. He
never went to a circus or the county
fair for fear some villain Of the deep
est dye might pick his pockets, and he
wouldn't haul his crops to market be-
cause he thought it was more than
likely that he would be cheated if he
did.
The farm he worked was very poor,
but he wouldn't move from it to a bet
ter one because he said he was used to
it and might not get along well in new
surroundings. At last he quit putting
out crops, for he saw that it was only
a waste of good seed, and one day the
overseers took him to the poorhouse.

An optican is thus quoted in the
Philadelphia Record: "Nine-tenths of
the railroad men, pilots and men in
whose business keenness and correct
ness of vision are a necessary adjunct
possess blue eyes. Haven't you ever
noticed the penetrating quality glance
from an azure tinted eye seems to
have? The cold, steady look from such
an eye appears to read you through
and through In great many years
OF practice I've discovered that very
few blue eyed people are compelled to
wear glasses. Blue eyes are very at
tractive, but brown eyes are the most

noted by gray eyes, and hazel eyes in

The Superior American Women.
After many happy weeks spent in
the States / am not in the least sur
prlsed that Englishmen should marry
American women. They show their
good taste-I should do the same were
L a man. Nor am | surprised that
American women should prefer Eng
lishmen, for the same remark applies.
There is a delightful freedom, an air
of comradeship coupled with pleasant
manners and pretty looks in the Aneri-
can woman, which is most attractive.
Her hospitality is unbounded, her gen
crosby thoughtful. and she is in every
way an all round good sort.
The American woman is an excellent
speaker 1t is surprising to hear her
oratory at one of her large club lunch
cons, such as the Sorosis in New York.
The clubwoman is young and hand
some, well dressed and pleasing, and
she stands up and addresses a couple
of hundred women just as easily as she
would begin a tete-a-tete across a
luncheon table. She is not shy, or If
she is she hides it cleverly
There is no doubt about 1.-THE Amer
lean dame is a great personality, but
either she will have to educate her sons
to her own level or descend from the
pedestal on which she now reigns

when one Queen wns undressinC.


Guizot, the French historian, told
the following incident of his first visit
to Windsor castle:
con Wednesday evening at Windsor
castle the queen retired at II o'clock.
We stayed behind talking for half an
hour. At midnight set out to find my
own apartment, and I lose myself
in the galleries, saloons and corridors.
At last slowly open a door, taking it
for mine, and | see lady beginning to
undress, attended by her maid. l shut
the door as fast as l can and begin
again to search for my own room.
at last find some one who shows me
the way. l go to bed.
THE next day at dinner the queen
said to me laughingly, DO you know
that you entered my room at mid
nightY
GLOW, ma'am? Was it your ma
jesty's door that half openedY
Certainly And she began laugh
ing again, and so did l.
81 told her of my perplexity, which
she had already guessed, and I asked
whether it, like St Simon or Sully,
should ever write my memoirs she
would allow me to mention that had
opened the queen of England's door in
Windsor castle at midnight while she
was going to bed She gave me per-
mission and laughed heartily"
