 q could pose for that picture all day long with no serious injury to myself, except waste of time and little phy- sical fatigue" he insisted. But the less credulous of his friends refused to be- lieve that he took pleasure in such acrobatic performances, and finally he had to tell the whole story.
 Its all very simple. First you place your camera in some way about 10 or 12 feet from the floor, with the lens pointing downward. A picture taken with it in this position will make the floor appear to be side wall. Lay a sheet Of white cloth on the floor and then arrange your ladder and yourself upon this sheet, and the posing is done. A strip of carpet tackled to the wall and couple of chairs deftly arranged adds to the illusion, but the whole thing is so simple that am ashamed of myself for explaining tito you instead of mak- ing you think it out for yourself.

THE IMPORTANCE OF ENUNCLA-
 TICN

Baycnd the mastery of language, which is important of itself. and which is oS value even if the student is in ten6:ng always to write and never to speak it. is the art of enunciation. This is a secondary feature, perhaps, of the higher education, but it is not count. In these days of hurry we have reduced the written version of English to the briefest and terest possible forms expressing in q note of twenty words that on which our fOrbears wasted letter six pages. We have also sub stituted as far as practicable the per- sonal interview for the written com munication, becauese a man can travel faster than al etter and statement and response can be grouped in one quick exchange of ideas face to face. Hence the greater necessity than ever before of teaching young persons not only what to say which is expression, and the sounds of words, which is pro- nunciation, but how to make those sounds distinctly with their own organs of speech, which is enunciation.
 There is probably not business man within reach of these lines who could not cite on the instant a dozen illus trations of the point We are making as developed from his own daily experI- ence. If he sends a clerk on an errand, half the time he has to send him back to do it again, because their either the Jn i.,,s a1n rI1 derstood by the person to whom he was sent or that person has not made his answer understood by the clerk. Any one who mikes business of answering telephone calls can contribute his share of grievances on this general ac- count through the apparent inability of the average patron of the wire to enunciate his words The girls in the operating rooms mike themselves tar gets for profanity, often without de- serving such fate, from someone who cannot manage his tongue to better ef- feet than "se'en-for-fi," and then ex- poets an operator to give him 745 with out another question or without first switching him to some wrong number by mistake.
 It would be possible to multiply fn- stances indefinitely were that neces- sary We cannot pass from the sub ject, however, without remarking that the tendency to slovenly and foreless enunciation is a pretty sure road to muddy and inconsequent thinking or to no consecutive thought at all. It is wonderful how much an effort to bring out ones language in clear and crisp form assists ones mind in shaping the thoughts to be clothed with that lan- guage.-From the Washington Post.

CAPITOL AGLOW.
Electric Lights Burn Intermittently
 at First


 Hartford Jan. l. -- Several hundred people went to the capitol last evening to see both the exterior and interior of the building lighted by electricity. The building was open to the public from 7 until 9:30 o'clock. The lights were turn ed on at o'clock and for twenty min- utes the building was bathed in light Then the lights on the dome and in the east half of the exterior went out and the others soon followed. The building became absolutely dark. The four primary fuses by which the current of 2.400 volts was taken into the building, had failed to stand the strain and had burned out. In five minutes two of the new fuses burned out, and were re- placed with others. Then for half an hour the illumination went on success fully, but again there was trouble with the fuses. This difficulty was re- paired and the people were able to see how fine was the lighting of the build ing when everything worked we'll
 The scene inside the building when all the lights were going at the same time was very beautiful. The interior of the dome along has more than 1000 lamps.

BEEESTEAKR KRRTES ON THE ROOF

per. then one of salt, and then it is broiled over stove suitable for the purpose, placed not six feet away from the company. When it has been broiled it is sliced into veritable s!iv CTS, skewered on the end of knife, anG accompanied with three cornered piece of toast, is held tempt iagly just out of reach of the guests, who scramble merrily for the steak.
 It doesn't sound dignified, nor is it. Who would think of preserving dig nifty at a beefsteak dinner? It would be like weeping at a circus. Dignity and beefsteak dinner would be sad combination Conservatism cannot ex- ist on a roof top with champagne boxes in front of it and the entire at mcsphere permeate with bohemian ism.
 If you are not spry you are likely to go hungry. The beefsteak Is piping hot when you get it and you must e. ercise a bit of ingenuity in eating. There are ways and ways of eating with your fingers: you can be just as dainty as you please, and you can be careless. The accepted way of eat irg the beefsteak is 10 hold it on the three-cornered piece of toast, your thumb on the under side of the toast. your forefnger on the beef. If you do this you will probably be successful in your manipulaticns.
 The menu for the beefsteak dinner is simple. No red wine flows in great horns. The dinner is primitive in all but this. First there is sherry and ol- ives. and on a small keg worth of Rip Van Wrinkle fame Is placed a dish of celery that serves the entire party. After this simple first course comes the beefsteak. The scramble adds to the appetite, and with the steak ale or beer is served in steins- The dessert comes next in the shape of a thick. juicy mutton chop, with a white wrist let and a sprig of parsley. With this desert is served a demi:tasse de cafe.
 There is no musical program pre- scribed for the beefsteak dinner. If there were lyrics singing the praises Of the beef, If there were classics il illustrative of the clip of the butchers cleaver or the siZZle of the juicy beef over the fire, then there might be some recognized music to accompany the dinner. but as there are no such selections the music that best suits the mood and spirits of the party ir general is selected, and a piano sur rounded by the "beefsteakers" is 6 signal for voices to float over the root tops of the silent flats and make night we'll. perhaps not hideous, but bi ZarTe.

NOBILITY.

True worth is in being. not seeming, In doing each day that goes by Some little good-not in dreaming Of great things to co by and by. For. whatever men say in blindness, And in spite of the fancies of youth, There is nothing so kingly as kindness, And nothing so royal as truth. We get back our mete as We measure We cannot do wrong and feel right. Nor can we give pain and feel pleasure. For justice avenges each slight. The air for the wing of the sparrow, The bush for the robin and wren, But always the path that is narrow And straight, for the children of men We cannot make bargains for blisses, Nor catch them like fishes in nets, And sometimes the thing our lire
 misses
 Helps more than the thing that it
 gets.
 For good lieth not in possessing. Nor gaining of great nor of small. But just in the coing, and doing AS We would be done by, is all. Through envy, through malice, throu. h
 hating,
 Against the world early and late, No jot of our courage abating, Our part is to work and to wait. And slight is the sting of his trouble Whose winnings are less than his
 worth;
 or he who is honest is noble, Whatever his fortune or birth.

Lesson of a Life

CT only to that of president of the re- public. Only because of his birth in Scotland. he might have aspired even to that higher office. He was re- elected to the speakership for the fifty-seventh congress and could have been continued in that station if ht had so desired but, he withdrew from all participation in national at- fairs and will no more appear in off cial life. He is the first man of for eign birth to have achieved that ex- alted official rank.
 His life and pubic career may well be studied by young men and women. In every condition of life he exempli fie dthe wisdom of that say ing of Confucius: Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in ising every time we fall"
 Success in most things depends in knowing how long it takes to succeed. Valor Is stability, not of t-e legs and arms, but of courage, and the soul. It is wonderful to see what marvels men may accomplish, when acting un- der the impulse of powerful will.
 Life is a warfare. Men who sue oeed must always be busy. In he's battle, 1t remains for only God and the angels to be lockers on. In the orchestra of life too many men are willing to play second fiddle. Colonel HenC erson always aspired to be a leader. Of him it may well be said, in the words of Dryden:
 What the child admired,
 The youth endeavored, and the man
 acquired"
 Too many men content themselves with being good. Colonel Henderson was contented only in being good for something. He had concentration of purpose; oneness of aim. He a. quil ed two educations; one which he received from others, and another, more important, winch he gave to him. self. Like Archimedes, he said: Give me a standing place, and will move the world"
 In thus mentioning the life of the ex-speaker, it must not be supposed by the reader that this is a tribute from a friend. On the contrary. although an acquaintance of a score of years. the narrator is not particularly his friend. It is simple statement of fact that his portrait has been placed "on flames eternal camping ground" anu there it will remain forever. Having achieved notable success he has re- tired from the arena of public life, never again to enter it. Such life is a lesson to those who are coming into maturity; coming upon the stage which is the world. From 1t they can learn the truth of the tersely stat ed wisdom:
 Honor and fame from no condition
 rise;
 Act well your part. the<e all the honor lies"
 This mans life was a struggle, be- ginning with the disadvantage of or phanage, and a maimed body. The

Washington, D. C., Oct. 24.-This is story for young men to read and to porCer over after reading it. Young women, with ambitions, may profit by giving the story their at,enuon.
 The new congress is soon to con- vene in extra session. and the first work of the house of representative will be the election of presiulng off cer, who will be known and addressed as, the speaker The man to be thus favored is MT. Joseph G. Cannon, oi Danville, Illinois.
 In the capital building, at Washing ton, there is a long corridor known as he Speakers lobby; and on the walls o- that corridor are the pictures O. he men who have occupied the speak CTS chair. To the large collection mas just been added the portrait of Ex- Speaker David B. Henderson; the gen -leman who has presided over the na- tional house Of representatives during the past two congresses. Inasmuch as this ex-speaker has voluntarily re- tired from public life, and permanent ly, his career shall be briefly set Iol ,-- in the following lines. Young men and women win do well to give them consideration.
 David Bremner Henderson was Dorn in Old Deer, Scotland, March If, lS40. His parents emigrated to America when their son was only six years of age. He grew and developed in farm fife on the boundless prairies of the Mississippi valley. When only nine teen years old. he enlisted in the union army and lost leg in noble, honora- ble battle, under the stars and stripes.
 Listen, young man, Mark that fact. The young man, just as ambitions s sky was reddening with the blushes of morning, became a cripple for life. lie could not enter the sports of young men. nor compete with those who had been more fortunate in the race of life. But, handicapped as he was, he did not despair. On the contrary, he aspired.
 As the days and weeks and months rolled by, he bored over his books, studied faithfully, and became law yer. He continued his studies, ana became an eminent lawyer. At last, although not born in tnls country, he entered the political arena. He strove valiantly against many obstacles, but always succeeded, because of his .n- domitable will and marvellous deter imitation of character. He studied that bright lexicon in which there is no such word as fail.'
 Twenty-two years ago he was first elected to the national house of rep l-resentatives. Year after year he faithfully attended to his duties. his people appreciated his manifestations of the genius of labor, as well as his well-directed energies. They re-elect- ed him every two years, until he grad ually forged to the front and became a recognized leader in national affairs
 In December, 1899. he was elected speaker of the national house of rep resentatives, position second in pow
