NEW ENGLAND CONSCIENCE.
The Scruple That Prevented Young
Widows Remarriage.

WIDOW
Said a drummer visitor miss M. E.
Boyd to young widow-a seam.
stress-in a New Hampshire hill town.
one day last summer: you must be-
lonely here now since your husband
died. Perhaps you will feel like mar
rying again; you are not so very Old
ooh, Miss Mary" she answered in a
voice full of feeling, III l only could
if l only dared" And then came the
simple story and a touching example
OF "the New England conscience
She had loved in early youth young
man whom her mother disapproved al
a sutton. He was joiner by trade
and worthy, but the mother. having
higher ambitions, separated the cou,
pie. The girl married a quiet man
her senior, who died few years later
Then, after a decent interval, the old
lover. who had thriven in business
asked her again to become his wife,
That seemed a beautiful and natural
ending of the story. But no. "Ahi,.
cried the poor thing. IF l had loved
my husband could go to James with
a happy heart-oh, how happy Blu.
although things were pleasant enougb
between my husband and me, always
felt the difference and at heart | wal
unfaithful to him. l think this IL
meant for my punishment for think

Legislation for Muskrats.

Chicago Tribune.
 The Maryland legislature will be called upon at its forthcoming session to enact laws for the preservation of the musk rat It has recently been discovered that this rodent, previously held as of little or no account. Is not only edible but nutritious. Expert cooks have learned how to prepare him for the table with his peculiar odor removed In some parts of the State he figures on the menus as marsh rabbit. in others he Is held In much esteem as plain muskrat. The tn- genuity of Maryland cooks in substitu- tions Is well known. Chefs who have no difficulty in passing of sparrows for reed birds, mallards for canvasbacks, and "siders" for diamondback terrapin, can easily manage to pass off muskrat for anything about Its size. or even larger. when made into a raRout.
 Now that the edible quality of tho muskrat has been established. 1t Is al- most needless to say that the entire hunt ing population of the tidewater districts is after him, and that unless some law Is passed to restrain them there will soon be an end of him. As he possesses other than food value the Baltimore papers are calling upon the legislature to pro- tect him as far as possible against that nearly universal characteristic of Amer jeans to hunt any wild animals found to be of special usefulness either for food or wear until they are extinct. It is only another illustration of the useless and expensive waste in all things for which Americans are notorious.

A YOUNG ALABAMrAN.
Was Warmly Praised by President
 ERoosevelt.g A%

From Lucien Walkers Washington Let
 ter to Birmingham Age-Heraid.
 A young Alabamian II figures In the best of all the little occurrences which have demonstrated President Roosevets dis regard of the old formalities and ceremo- nies which have hedged about his five and twenty predecessors in the rulership nf the republic. This Alabamian Is No ble Wiley of Montgomery. only offspring of Congressman Wiley
 Young Wiley. when he was received by the President yesterday. was accorded what was perhaps the most novel recep- 'tiun eyer experienced in the White House by visitor. The young man ac- comp 1iad Senator Pettus and Congress- r-tu Wiley. Underwood. Clayton and Thompson, who called upon the President tn discuss civil anpnintmeuts and to urge the transfer of Colonel Bullard of Ala ha ma from the paYmaster-generars de- partmrnt of the army to the line, and his promotion from his army rank of major. It was not the purpose of the distin- guished visitors to present young Wiley and so. when they entered the President [ presence the young man remained at the door a mere onlooker.
 Just as the President had spoken to the Senator and Congressmen. who stood ir line he looked towards the door and be aeid young Wiley, whorl he received ani conversed with some ten days previous ly. Quick as a flash he hurried across in front of his official visitors to where young Wiley stood and grasped the star tied youngster by the hand. demandiul

 Stepping back pace or two the Presi- dent closely scrutinized the stRlwart and handsome young Alabamian from his black boots to his light hair upon his sunshining head.
 By George! I'd be almost willing to take you on your shape, as the cowboy would say. You would make a splendid cavalry officer"
 So speaking to young Wiley. the Pres- ident turned abruptly and joined the amazed Senator and Congressmen: and then on and on. dashing from visitor to visitor. according to his custom.
 The best fact about Noble Wiley is that his character Is in keeping with his Christian name and his superb physical manhood.

PUMPKIN FEUI.
Between Grosvenor and Landis to Be
 Settled by Experts

Washington Star. .-s
 The finest pumpkins m the world are grown in Congressman Landiss district Tn indiana Eandis says so himself These are the pumpkins which James Whiteomb Riley made famous in his poem, and Landis says that the sight Of them. lying in the cornfields on frosty morning. is enough to stir the heart or any poet and inspire an epic chant. And when they are made into a pie. says I.andls s'ther@ is nothing else in the world to compare with them. To eat pumpkin pie in an Indiana farm house is an experience worth traveltng many miles to enjoy.
 Grosvenor of Ohio. disputes the claiS, of Landis that the finest pumpkins are grown in Indiana and says that along the corn belt of Southern Ohio the vel low beauties reach the highest stage of perfection. He agrees, however, Witf Iardis that it is the hayS-. and not the size which is the test of the best pump kin The rivalry between Ohio and h. diana is to be settled by sending for the finest pumpkin from each State. When the two specimens arrive Colonel Page ol the Senate and House restaurants. will take then. and convsr. them into the filling fo- two pies. A jury of pump kin pie exp. ts is to be chos ,n, and with due appreciation the pies are to be eaten and a solemn verdict rendered. There is already considerable rivalry for places on the jury.

when this fact became known a warm hearted, candid friend. a member Of the flock. came to give her few pointers. Now. my dear" she began, II under stand you are going to sing for us. Take my advice when YOU do and beware or ever singing a high note"
 And why shouldn't sing a high note if the piece requires it?" asked the as- tonished and wounded soloist
 ''Why. because some of the other ap- plicants did and got turned down. You see the congregation wishes contralto. and if you sing above a deep growl they will think you have a soprano voice and turn you down."
 Aha, so this was 1t! The applicant se- lected a way-down-in-a-coal-m selec- ton for her trial effort and carefully avoided any shrieks. All the same. she did not get the position, and doesn't even know how she took, for the silence of the congregation and choir has been deep enough to sound with a plummei ever since.
 There arc more tragedies in church choirs than Shakespeare ever wrote or Horatio dreamed of.

Temperament and Exercise.

Philadelphia Record.
 Careful tests and observations made al the Yale psychological laboratory have demonstrated the importance of studying individual temperament before prescrib- ing system of physical exercise. A nervous temperament, for example re Quires different treatment from that required by a phlegmatic temperament without regard to the physical condition of the subject. The mental factors are more necessary than the muscular in the development of strength. A nervous per. son should never be required to take heavy exercise; a phlegmatlc person, on he contrary. requires 1t. The phlegmati, emperament indicates reserve energy in both muscles and nerve cells, while the nervous temperament has less reserve power, but greater ability to use the energy at hand.
