Be natural. II you are not what you
would like to seem, endeavor to come
as nearly to your ideals as you can,
but do not affect a manner or char
acter that is not your own, that is not
sincere. Affectation betrays weakness
of character. 1t deceives no one. One
may imagine he is making a great
impression. People are too polite to
let him know their thoughts. but they
see through him. He makes himself
less in their estimation. 1t is of no
use to assume to know that of which
one is ignorant
There is n certain strength In hon
esty that carries weight and influence.
Integrity win make itself felt. By
making no pretenses one is on the right
road to advance. There is no fool like
the one who thinks he knows 1t all,
or, worse, thinks he can make others
think so. Pretenses are despised by all
sensible persons. Be true, be genuine,
and you retain your self respect and
gain that of others.-Milwaukee Jour-
nal

An old Swedish custom is for people
to indicate their business upon their
visiting cards. One will receive the
card of Lawyer Jones or Banker Smith
or Notary Johnson or Music Professor
Brown or Grosserer (Which means
wholesale merchant) Ferguson or Geol-
ogist Thompson, and II man ever
held an office it is customary to lndi-
cate that fact upon his card. A burgo-
master is always burgSmaster, con.
sui Is always consul and an alder
man always an alderman. The pre-
fixes Hon" and Mr." are seldom
used. and the title, whether CONNER
cial or professional, is observed in con
yersation in the same way.
1t Is customary also for ladies' to
print their maiden names upon their
visiting cards In smaller type under
their married names. particularly If
they have pride of family and want
people to know their ancestry.

The Russian Succession.
From the London Daily Chronicle.


1t was hoped and expected In Russia that
the cars only surviving brother, the
Grand Duke Michael. who now bears the
title of czarevitch, would shortly be dis
placed from this position by the birth Of
male heir-apparent in the direct line but
for the fifth time since his marriage Nicho-
las II has been disappointed. and this
time more acutely than before. Four
daughters have been born to him at pretty
regular intervals since 1895, but now the
imperial court physicians certify to the
premature confinement of the empress.
The question of the Russian succession is
by no means clear. According to a decree
of the Emperor Paul of 1877, the success
sion is by right of primogeniture, with pref
erence OF male over female heirs, but this
must be a different kind of law from that
of our own royal house, otherwise the
cars brother would not be his present
heir-apparent In preference to his eldest
daughter. Since the accession of the Ro-
manoffs Russia has been ruled at various
times by four expresses, but 1t Is not
certain that, failing the present cZarevitch
whose constitution is by no means ro-
bust-his position as the heir-apparent
would not be taken by the cars uncle, the
Grand Duke Vladimir. the handsomest and
ablest member of the imperial house-a
kind of cross In character and accomplish
ments between Nicholas l. our antagonist
OF the Crimea. and his son Alexander IL

Women Doctors in Paris.

Paris Correspondence London Telegraph.
How many lady doctors practice In Paris?
A statistician has gone into the question.
He finds that while twenty years ago only
seven ladies had taken their medical degree
here, in the face moreover, of violent OPP
position. the 5000 physicians now estab-
lished In Paris include f1fty-seven women
The latter all have busy and remunerative
practices Two among them hold semi-of-
fetal posts These ladies are Nine. Bres
and Nine Perree. The former is medical
attendant to the Chatelet Theater. where
she looks after the ladies of the company
and the children who often appear on that
stage, the home of French extravaganza.
Nine. Perree has the same position at the
state playhouse of the Odeon, the Second
Theater Francois" She is the wife of a
comedian who acts at the Palais Royal, I'M
der the name Of Raymond. Every year the
faculties of medicine Of Paris and Mont
pellier grant degrees to many feminine can
didates, but Frenchwomen are In the mi
nority, most of the doctoresses who pass
In this country being Russians and Rou-
manians. No lady physician has yet been
rewarded with the cross of the Legion of
Honor, but one midwife, Nine. Cross holds
this high and coveted order, which was
conferred upon her for gallant conduct in
the Franco-German war.
