OLD MEN WHO ARE NOT OLD
Notable Examples to BE Found boRn
Mt Home and Abroad.

Notable Examples to BE Found B0ah
at Home and Abroad.
Much has been said during the past
few years about the importance OF
young men as leaders in finance, indus
try and politics, and the impression has
been cultivated that only young men
were fitted to do the great work Of the
world in these progressive days. But
when we take q look around at the
men who are actually in the lead to-
day in literature, science, politics, re-
ligion and business we find much to
disprove this idea that old age is a
sign of weakness and ineficiency.
In our own strenuous land we have
such men as Edward Everett Hale,
Theodore Cuyler and Russell Sage still
at the forefront in a multitude Of ac-
tivities, although all three Of them
have left eighty years behind some
time since. In the sphere of national
politics we have such commanding fig
ures as Senator's Hoar and Hawley,
both of whom must plead guilty to the
age Of saventy-siX, while the two illus
| trious senator's from Maine, Messrs.
Hale and Frye, are both men Of many
years, the first named being sixty-six
and the other seventy-one. Our pres
ent secretary Of state, Mr.. Hay, is far
from being a youthful person, having
, sixty-four years to his credit, while
Secretary Wilson is older than that by
three years and Postmaster General
Payne is nearly sixty. Whitelaw Reid
of the Tribune is sixty-ive, and Drs.
James NJ. Buckley and Lyman Abbott,
the veteran religious journalists, are
over sixty-six.
If we turn our gaze abroad, we find
equally strong testimony. 1t is Sir
John Arid, verging on seventy, who
has built the great Nile dam; it is Lord
Masham. verging on ninety, who has
Just appealed to the English govern
ment to overhaul the fiscal system;
Henry Labouchere, "Labby," the bril-

Austria was seventy-two last August,
Oscar Of Sweden Is seventy-three, Leo

FACTS ABOUT FEET.


The typical Irish foot is fiat, rather
broad and not usually long.
The Frenchman's foot is proverbialy
long, narrow and well proportioned.
The Scotchman's foot is high and
thick, strong, muscular and capable OF
hard work.
The Tartar's foot is short and heavy.
the foot Of a certain type OF savage,
and the toes are all the same length.
The Englishman's foot is in most
cases short and rather fleshy and not
as rule as strong as proportionately it
should be.
The Russians foot possesses at least
one popularity which is worth MOTTO
ing. The toes are generally "webbed"
to the first joint.
The Spaniard's foot is generally
small and, thanks to the Moorish blood
which flows in the veins of most Span
iards, elegantly curved.
The latest measurements seem to
show that America is in the process OF
developing race with the smallest
feet among all the civilized nations.
The Teutonic and Scandinavian ma.
tons appear to have the largest feet,
Swedes, Norwegians and Germans
standing in this respect at the head OF
The list.
The Arabs foot is famous for its
high arch. whereby true Arab may.
indeed. always be known, the Koran
saying that stream of water can run
under the foot without touching it.

CHINAMAN GAVE UP HIS SEAT.
g HoAthen's Courtesy to u Tired
Woman While Christians Re-
nained Seated.

"A Columbia avenue car, with good
crowd aboard, was vending its way
up Ninth street late one Saturday
evening. Only a few of the gent1er
sex were on the car and these had
seats. Among the seated passengers
were two severe-looking clergymen,
several prosperous business men and
a docile Chinaman who carried large
bundle on his knees.
At Arch street middle-aged woman
who carried a small valise got on the
car. It jolted along and the slender,
tired-looking woman glanced around
appealingly for seat. She stood close
to where the two ministers sat and
her face wore an expression of pain
as the car ratified along and she
clutched nervously at the hand-strap.
The Chinaman rose from his seat, and,
holding his heavy bundle with his left
hand, tapped the woman with his
right hand gently and motioned her
to the seat he had vacated. She ac-
copied the favor with smile and a
gracious THANK you, sir"
All the men seated in the car stared
at each other as if each of them had
received rebuke.
THAT Chinee is all right" remarked
the conductor, according to the Phil
adelphia Record. Hes a good sam
pie of those supposed barbarians we
are endeavoring so hard to civiize."

HE WANTED A BEAR.
RaN when He Net One Face 70 EAH1
He Forgot What He Wa
Out After. -

suThe sickest man I ever took into
the woods" said an Adirondack
guide, near North Creek, relates the
New York Times, was lawyer who
came in from Buffalo last fall to kill
a bear. He said he was going to kill
one If it took all season. He wanted
a rug of his own killing for his of
fee. He staid in the woods three
weeks, and wouldn't look at deer or
small game. Finally he had to go
home. He sent his stuff out to the
railroad by team, and walked out
himself, saying that would be his
last chance at bear.
'Sure enough, he went around big
rock and met bear face to face in
the trail. He forgot what he was
after, forgot he had been hunting
three weeks for this very animal, for
got that he wanted rug for his Of
fee, and even forgot that he had a
gun. He turned and sprinted in the
direction from which he came till it
ell came over him that that bear was
just what he wanted. Then he
stopped, went back and saw from the
tracks that the bear had gone q
good deal faster than he did, and in
the opposite direction"

CITY WOOD CLEANERS.
Mrsekase OF Buildings In
short Order. }

One of the picturesque sights of
certain sections of the city is that
of a woman bearing bundles or bas-
kets of wood on their heads. Some
times the dimensions of the bundles
exceed the stature of their purveyors.
In that case it may be concluded that
the journey is toward home, where
the material will be worked up, per-
haps, into kindlings. After certain
days it may appear again in the street,
carefully bestowed in basket and
heaped high over the edges-two
sticks being run up from the inside of
the basket to support the pile-and
the whole balanced on the head of an
italian woman, says the Chicago Trib-
une. The women who collect and ped
die wood-often helped by their chill
dren-are sometimes an annoyance to
wreckers, since it does not always
"come natural for them to limit
their pickings according to the pre-
scribed restrictions. They make short
shrift, however, of Gle airing away such
wreckage as is left to their mercies.
and when there is a considerab BILE find"
it vanishes before the assault of many
rival hands almost like mist. The car
riage of such heavy burdens on the per-
son is not an ideal method of transpor-
tation for this day and generation, but
the erect posture, bold step and free
movement of the wood peddlers as
they pace off under their towering
burdens is one of the most interesting
and artistic sights which the streets
afford, and the grace and strength Of
the figure thus attained may well be
admired and coveted. The sight itself
is one which will largely disappear
with the wooden pavements and frame
cottages which now survive from an
earlier day and are gradually being
sacrificed.
