Yet even Grover Cleveland in his ad-

one of the masterful causes OF Napo-
Icons transfer of that great empire
to the United States, the sturdy and
successful resistance of the freed
blacks of Santo Domingo, TO the en-
croachment of the French dictator, the
Scourge of Europe. And We all know
how this vast territory west Of the
Mississippi river was cemented TO the
Union by the blood and the intrepid
bravery of the Negro soldiers, under
General Jackson, at New Orleans
How can the history of this mighty

ton of its development, and if it can
not, why has he no place in the cele-

Perhaps no other OF our leaders is
better qualified to speak with authori-

the South, than Hon. Josiah T. Settle,
of Memphis, Tenn, who utIers many
encouraging words in an interview re-
Gently given by him to representa-
tive of the Milwaukee Sentinel. Here
are some of the comforting things Mr..
Settle says:
The Negro is at this time more in
clined to the industrial, mechanical,
and professional pursuits of life than
TO politics. He thinks more of accu-
mulating property, getting home,
educating his children, improving NOR
ally, intellectually and financially, the
condition of his race than he does of
politics or public office.

WHAT ONES MOUTH BETRAYS
Its Shape an Index to the Posessor's
 Character.

No feature of the face so plainly tells the history of the possessor as the III outh. Try as we will, our mouths are a record of our lives-an unerring record to the physiognomist, who often would be glad not to believe what he reads in the mouths of his companions. and who k1 ows that in his own case and every ether that feature cannot be bribed or forced or cajoled into tell ing an untruth.
 A fine mouth will redeem a good many indifferent features. bad mouth-one that is cruel, selfish or sensual can only be redeemed by a good life. The mouth reflects good or evil more speedily than any other fea- ture, and many a mouth showing almost vicious propensities in child hood has been remodeled, made sweet and generous by the careful, conscien- tious soul and body training of a wise and good mother.

BARRIE'S FIRST EFFORT.

J. M. Barrie has been so much ac- past he has probably forgotten the very first critical appreciation he re- ceived When he was a school boy at Dumfries he contributed to a manu- script comic journal got up by his schoolmates of the academy and call
 series of articles under the heading "Reckolections of a Skoolmaster," in which with Artemus Wardian spelling throughout, he thus introduced himself to his readers: When you read the following artickles I think I hear 700 exklaim, Who in this grate literally genus appearing before our eyes and takin our harts by storm" The juvinile editor of the Clown seems to have been a person of discrimination, for in his answers to correspondents, :" dealing praise and tlame alike to contributors. he says in response to J. B.: Your 'Reckolections' are exceed
 ingly well composed. Many thanks for both No. 1 and No. ?. We shall be very glad to hear from you again soon. Some of these "Reckolections" were reproduced in a local paper ten years ago, on the occasion of a visit Mr- Barrie paid to his old school. They showed how effectively the lad could reproduce a conversation, and there is certain crude humor in process of development to be traced in them.

DIRGE OF DEAD SISTERS.

The Dirge of Dead Sisters is a
 stately solemn tribute to the women who nursed the sick and dying in South Africa. Some stanZas from the
 poem follow:
 Who recalls the twilight and the rang
 ed tents in order (Violet peaks uplifted through the crystal evening air?) And the clink of iron teacups and the piteous noble laughter, And the faces Of the Sisters with the dust upon their hair? (Now and not hereafter, while the break is in our nostrils Now and not hereafter, ere the meaner years go by Let us now remember many honorable women, Such as bade us turn again when we were like to die.) Grill the pain was merciful and stun ned us into silence When each nerve cried out on God that made the misused clay; When the Body triumphed and the last poor shame departed There abode our agonies and wiped the sweat away)
 Who recalls the noontide and the flu nerals. through the market. (Blanket-h hidden bodies. f1agless, fol- lowed by the flies0 And the footsore firing party, and the dust and stench and staleness. And the faces of the Sisters and the glory in their eyes? (Bold behind the battle, in the open camp all-hallowed. | Copyright, 1903. by Rudyard Kipling.

THE PALACE

One of the best of the poems is "The Palace" part of which is given be- low:
 When I was a king and Mason-a
 Master proven and skilled I cleared no ground for a palace such
 as king should build. I decreed and dug down to my levels.
 Presently, under the silt, I came on the wreck of a palace such
 as a King had built, There was no Worth in the fashion
 there was no wit in the plan Hither and thither, aimless, the ruined
 footings ran Masonry, brute, mishandled, but carv-
 en on every stone: After me cometh a Builder, Tell him,
 I too have known" When I was King and a Mason-in
 the open noon of my pride, They sent me word from the Dark
 ness
 They whispered and called me aside. They, said "The end is forbidden"
 They said, Thy use is fulfilled. And thy palace shall stand as that
 others-the spoil of the King who
 shall build" called my men from my trenches. my
 quarries. my wharves and my
 shears.
 All l had wrought I abandoned to the
 faith of the faithless years. Only I cut on the timber. only I carv-
 ed on the stone: After me cometh a Builder, Tell him l,

WOMEN WHO DRINK
England Apparently Seems to Have
 More Than Enough of Them.

But in order rightly to understand" !"
 says Lady Henry Somerset, writing about London in the North American
 Review, " we must leave for a moment
 the fields and flowers and the birds
 and beasts, and go into the dingy city,
 and pass the courts and the alleys and
 the pawnbrokers' shops and the old
 clothes shops; we must go down into
 the kitchens where the rats share the
 damp darkness with the inhabitants,
 and then We shall begin to understand
 what is the attraction to the dwellers
 in the narrow court and gloomy slum.
 At the corner of the street there is
 public house, and, if we watch the
 swinging door for a moment. we shall
 be able to realize why it is that in
 England there are more drunken wo-
 men than in any other nation, and how
 it is that the brewers have made larger fortunes than can be amassed by any other trade.
 Between the hours of l and o'clock you will see in this squalid district
 from one to two hundred women en-
 ter the drink shop with little babies in their arms, and as those women crowd into that public house and stand to drink, they will often give the baby share of the liquor and the little mouth will greedily suck the spoon or the glass that has in it the taste Of gin. Between those hours, too, you will see a hundred and fifty and two hundred girls, with tattered clothes. torn pinafores, some almost shoeless, all ragged, all dirty, all disheveled, en- tering with jugs to carry away the
 drink to their miserable homes. As
 many boys under the age of fourteen or fifteen will be there. to making perhaps, a total in one afternoon of five hundred children. I remember on | one occasion standing in front of such a public house (and ii you look down | the street, you will see that there are | twenty or more), with an American and when she saw the women going 1 into the public house, some of them | respectfully clad, she said: Are they going to hold a crusade meeting

mouth gives the earliest evidence in its expression of the soul or inward thoughts of the subject. Size, as with other features, signifies power in the mouth.
 A very small mouth is never found with broad intellectually and great controlling ability. This does not mean that an enormous mouth on a small face signifies power or strength.
 On the contrary a big mouth on a little face, being entirely out of har- mony, means what one would infer "too much mouth''-the subject will talk too much and rarely say anything of importance.
 Large, coarse-looking mouths belong to people of energy and strong animal propensities. They are stronger phy- sically than mentally. but with moral culture and moral effort these mouths grow to be generous features.
 Culture diminishes the size of the mouth and also of the ear; if it dimin- ishes them too much they become re- fined but weak.
 A small rosebud mouth as rule be- longs to a somewhat insignificant character The child-wife usually has a small mouth. She remains child to the end of her days.
 Thin-lipped women are rarely of so- cial or impulsive natures. They are frequently highly intellectual, but not emotional. The girl with the thin lips should stand guard against her na- turally contracted tendencies. She should force herself to expand, to give rather than to hoard.
 Lips that are coarse, puffed and large belong to coarse natures. When the outline of the mouth is refined, lips neither thick nor thin, with gently curved and undulating outlines, the in dications are for a refined nature, deli cacy and gentleness oi manner.
