REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

The world owes every man q living
and every woman q loving
If modesty was the fool-killer most
women would die of old age.
There are probably a lot of women
that will find heaven awfully old-fash-
ioned
Any man can get the best of wo-
man if he only knows how to make
her too mad to cry.
A mans love can be beckoned, bus
not commanded; woman's love can
be commanded, but not beckoned
The minister doesn't have to know
the marriage ceremony by heart, for il
he forgets a word the woman can al
ways prompt him.
Some woman has written a book en-
titled How to Enjoy Matrimony."
wish the publishers would ask me to
write a preface for 1t.
It's a great advantage to be a pretty
woman. because the wind never blows
her skirts around near as much as it
does homely woman's.
I read of a woman the other day
who had her husband arrested for
shooting the nose of her china teapot.
If he had shot her own nose off she
would probably have forgiven him
The only thing which would pun sh
woman worse than having to say
what she believed, would be having to
believe what she said.-New York
Press.

A MARRIED MANS MUSINGS.

Few men who take better half
prepare for the worst.
A pretty good example of superero-
CATION is teaching a girl baby to
talk.
July is one of the unlucky months
to get married. There are eleven
others.
When a fellow begins to forget the
date he was married he wonders if it
wasn't April l.
A fellow who's intoxicated with
love doesn't take long to sober up
after marriage.
One never knows that any other
creature than man wears a wig unit;
he gets married
The English language contains no
feminine form for the word sage. The
reason is obvious.
It's after he's married that a fellow
begins to devote special attention to
mis- explanation departmeT /.
A Kansas man saved roman from
drowning and was married to her in
side of three months. One can't be
too careful
It's always a question with the
originators of fashions for women
whether to make the sleeves too tight
or too loose.
The kindest-hearted father would
hardly refuse an offer to exchange
baby for a well-bred fox terrier dur
ing teething time.
When fellows wife kisses him
nowadays he can't be sure whether
it's to show her love or to find out
what he's been taking.
Every wife should have dictionary
OF synonyms; a fellow gets so tired
nearing the same old words after
coming home late from sitting up
with sick friend.
Probably Adam would never have
married If he had had to stand up in
church before 1000 people with a
frock coat on and so through a ten
minute ceremony that seemed like
ten hours.

Washington witticisms.

A resident of Washington thought
OF what he considered a funny thing
and went into the office of George e.
Roberts, director of the mint, to pus
his idea into practice. Mr. Roberts," !"
he said, Il visited the mint in Phila-
delphia the other day and had a ju-
lep-' There was a laugh which was
heartily received when Roberts re-
piled: IF that's all you had you
missed a good thing. You ought to
have taken a silver fizz, too"

New York,s Women Smokers.

The smoking woman is by no means
a rarity in New York. She has cum
ming little tricks to conceal the vice,
but she cannot hide it from the shop
keeper. A tobacconist, of the me-
tropolis, remarked recently that good
part of his trade in Turkish cigarettes
and other fairy brands is made up of
smart society women. He says most of
them pick up the idea while abroad,
where the practice is common and in
dulged in the open.

A Long Bottle story.

A bottle which has been on its way
for two years and half has just been
picked up near the Hawaiian Islands.
From its contents it appears that it
was thrown into the Mackinac Strait
in 1900 by Mr.. Rocher of Illinois. 1t
appears to have floated down the Mis-
s1ssippi, crossed the Mexican Gulf and
the Atlantic, doubled Cape Horn, and
drifted on the Pacific until picked up
a distance of 10000 miles or so.

The Smallest Bequest.

An inhabitant of Borssen, in Zea-
land, has inherited probably the small
est legacy on record, except, perhaps,
the proverbial shilling. His son has
died in the Dutch Indies, leaving be-
hlnd him effects to the value of 13
pence halfpenny, to which the father
is heir. The money is payable at
Middelburg, and the man will have to
walk two Dutch leagues for it, losing
also days work.-The Independence
Beige.

Horses Not Affected by Sun.

There is no proof that any horse
ever suffered from the effects of the
suns rays falling upon it's head
Among the human race it is now a
well-recoguiz ed fact that so-called
"sunstroke" is due to a microbial in
vasion of the body. In other words it
is kind of specific fever, and can be
contracted in the shade.-The Medical
Press.

An Artistic smokestack.

1t has remained for a New Orleans
railway company to discover the dec
orative and advertising value of a
smokestack. Its height obviously
renders it conspicuous feature Of
the city's perspective, and when en-
circled with spiral ,of incandescent
lamps it stands out in the night a
veritable beacon of light. The top is
decorated with clusters of lamps max
ing most pleasing picture.

CLEMENS AND ROGERS.

H. H. Rogers and Mark Twain are friends who are often together. In many ways it is an odd combina tion, but the fact that their ambitions and lives have been very different does not prevent them from being alike in many ways If MT. Rogers would allow his hair to grow longer and bristle his mustache a bit, they would look very much alike.
 At the press banquet in honor of Prince Henry at the Waldorf-Astoria the other evening they sat together. and their conversation was all between themselves. They got up and started to take a little turn together. and Will liam C. Bryant. stepping down from the speakers table. grasped MT. Rog- CTS by the hand and. laughing. said;
 Why. Mir. Clemens. I am glad to meet you.'

4 USEFUL MAN.

A bluff, energetic, determined force ful man is Clement Acton Griscom, president of the International Naviga- ton company. His career has been somewhat remarkable as well as sue cessful. He is of that class of men who grow abler as they push ahead to strike out new course.
 Mir. Griscom is just short of being 62 years old. and since he left the Friends Academy at Philadelphia. his native town, boy of 16, his life's work has beer none of progressive development. Starting as clerk in the old and con- servative shipping house of Peter Wright & Sons, MT. Griscom was made partner in 1863.
 He conceived the idea that the export of petroleum offered huge possibilities for profitable trade-something that had not then been dreamed of. And forthwith MT. Griscom began shipping oil to Europe, bringing back crockery on the return voyages. Thus he was really the pioneer in a trade that, de- veloped later by the Standard Oil coni- pany, has assumed vast proportions.
 The shipping interests of Peter Wright & Sons grew in importance, and it was on the strength of his con nection with the firm that MT. Griscom was elected a director of the PennSyl- vania railroad company in 1884. Out of this combination of interests grew the American and Red Star lines of trans atlantic steamships that are now owned by the International NaViga tion con- pany.
 No one has done more than Mir. Gris- com to promote the safety and comfort of ocean travel or in devising and in- troducing improvements in that direc- ton. He was the first. in the-steam- ships City of New York and City of Paris to cause to be introduced twin | screws for the passenger service in the ! north Atlantic trade. These ships were the first to be constructed so sub- i divided as to be virtually unsinka ble. | For his work in these directions MT. l Griscom was made an honorary mem- 1 Der of the British Institute of Naval | Architects, and he is now president of
 the American Society of Naval Archi- l tectS.
 | Personally, MT. Griscom is sound combination. In stature he is of medi- um height, but he is broad shouldered
 and gives the impression of being very large man. He is difficult of ap- | EJi OdNi. yet He very lOllu Oi SOClttA
 and of entertaining. A good dinner-it must be well cooked and faultlessly
 served-is thoroughly enjoyed by Mr
 Griscom. And either as host or guest ! he is most pleasing companion. | There are few people who realize what an active interest MT. Griscom
 takes in his country place and in his farm iE Montgomery county. where he | raises fine stock. On the former there
 was an old quarry that, under the in- terested direction of MT. Griscom, has
 been transformed into most beautiful | fernery. Every species and variety of
 fern that will grow native in this eli mate has been sought out and planted somewhere in that old quarry. It is
 one of the sights that MT. Grisconl
 most delights to show the guests who accept his hospitality during the sum-
 mer months.

PHILIPPINES CAMPAIGNING.

W. O. McGeehan, who fought and wrote in the Philippines with the Cali fornia troops, tells some good stories about volunteers there, and especially the troops from the Pacific coast.
 In the field, the American officer wears almost the same uniform as the private. This often causes some quee'- mistakes. The admiral of the English fleet in Manila bay came up the PasiS one day to see some of the American troops in action. He stopped at San Pedro Macati and sent an orderly, a burly Cockney tar. ashore to announce his coming to General James r. Smith. who was in command of the town. The sailor was directed to the general . quarters. He looked dubiously a the general, who had just returned from the trenches and was literally plas- tered with mud.
 Say. Jack" said the sailor, ''where's General Smith?"
 "I am he" replied the gallant Cali fornian.
 The shade of doubt deepened on the sailors face. "If you are" he said. you're bloomin' dirty general.
 A certain corporal and squad of Californians were sent to peaceful town in Negros with rather indefinite orders. The corporal was told in sub- stance "tc keep 2 rgthelly eve "n the

his hard work and indomitable spirit. Never has there been Viceroy who worked harder. This is the more re- marka ble, as he is q man of indifferent health. and often has to lie up for days-if not for weeks. But even ill., ness makes no difference in his habits. and it is part of the pride and cour age of his character that he never ali lows the world toshear anything of his days of suffering. The amount of work that he gets through with, even when it has to be brought to his bed side. helps to belle the idea that he can ever know the ordinary ups and downs of mems health in that destroying eli mate.
 Lord Curzon's success is undoubtedly largely helped by his wife. Everybody las praise for her-for her beauty, for her sweetness of temper and disposi- ton, and for her abOunding tact. Lord Curzon. like all strong men intent on great things, may occasionally ruffle the feathers: but whenever he does so, Lady CurZon is at hand to make them smooth aSain.-New York Commercial.
