-.icn Army Captains Rejoicing
Rather a Reflection.
The late Dan DAILY, whenever he
was idle in New York, had a great
habit of attending Salvation Army
meetings. He believed in the Saliva
ton Army, and he contributed liber-
ally to its support Sometimes, too, he
had interesting things to tell about It.
One evening, rather late, DAILY and
commercial traveller entered the
Fifth Avenue hotel together. DAILY,
with a nod toward his companion.
said:
my friend and were at a meeting
Of the Army tonight. The captain,
after his address, passed through the
audience, questioning the people.
Coming to my friend, he said:
what is your business, sir?'
"I am a commercial traveller was
the answer.
Are you saved?'
"'Oh, I'm all right
AT this reply, the captain, turning
to the congregation, shouted in q
loud voice:
Hallelujah! A commercial trav-
eler saved. He can save to the utter
most!'"

''He will hear my. robin singing.
And when he lifts his head, IN

And he will bow to me, i know"
The robin sang a love-sweet song,
The young man raised his head;
The maiden turned away and blushed.
II am a foo1i" she said;
And went on broidering In silk

The young man loitered slowly
BY the house three times that day;
She took her bird from the window;
He need not look this way"
She sat at her piano long
And sighed and played death-sad song.
But when the day was done! she said,
Il wish that he would comel
Remember, Mary, II he calls
Tonight, I'm not at home"
SO when he rang, she went-the elf
She went and let him In herself.
They sang full long together
Their songs love-sweet, death-sad;
The robin woke from his slumber,
And rang out. clear and glad

And followed him-to latch the gate.

for q New London Fad.
Yet another complication has been
added to the trials Of the nervous
society man. Inspection from dow
ager duchess through pair Of lorg-
nettes has been hitherto the most de-
pressing ordeal an 'at home" could
provide. bat now there Is the maid
with the monocle.
A Bond street tradesman told a rep.
resentative yesterday that hundreds
Of young society girls are buying
these fascinating articles OF attire.
In some cases they are being worn
by those with some weakness OF the
eyes who would formerly have sought
help from pince-nez; but for the most
part the fair purchasers have no such
excuse. They regard the monocles as
an added charm.
A number of ingenious devices have
been added to the monocle In order to
enable its new admirers to wear II
easily. A wide gold mount Is one OF
the best of these, as II prevents the
long lashes of a girls eyes from push
ing the glass and thus causing 1t to
fall.
The sympathy Of the ladies OF this
country for Garibaldi inclined them to
wear the blouse. The overcoming
interest In Napoleon has been the
cause of innumerable changes in dress
and is held by experts In sartorial
matters to be the influence that has
recently sent every girl into three
cornered hat.
Now comes the late colonial secre.
tary's monocle. Perhaps Admiral To-
go may be the subject OF delicate
tribute of this kind shortly.-London

There is but one class in the COM
munity that arrogates to itself the
privilege of breaking the law of the
state with impunity, and that is the
liquor-selling class. The thief is
pursued, the murderer is hunted to
his hiding-place, and the greater
the keenness that the detection re-
quires, the greater the popular APP
plause, while other thieves and
murderers discre .tly main tain their
silence; but the moment law break
ing liquor-seler is detected in his
crime and justice is demanded, at
that moment many who are sup
posed to be right-thinking men and
women begin to shout persecution"
and injustice" and "spotter evil
dence," sympathy is aroused, and
the law breaking liquor-seller him
self bowls the loudest of all the pack.
When will people learn that LAW
BREAKING, is LAW BREAKING,
and that the man who steals 1000
is no worse thief than the man
who steals boy, while the murder
err is murderer just the same
whether he administers the fatal
drug in single potion or metes it
out in 10000 potions of beer?
Liquor-sellers are banded together
for law-breaking. Liquor leagues
are organized for the protection OF
lawbreaking liquor-sellers. At
torneys are retained by liquor
leagues, whose duty it is to defend
every member of the league and pay
their fees to secure in advance the
services of these attorneys to de-
fend them if they chance to be
caught at their law breaking, and
are called to account. If this is not
setting out in advance with the in
tention OF breaking the law, and
escape, it is hard to define the act

A man went to nose and throat
specialist the other day to have his
cold cured. AS he was paying a not
small sum for the first treatment he
said: How long does II take you to
cure cold?"
Three weeks" said the specialist.
And how long would II take me to
get well IL didn't come to your
asked the alarmed patient.
"Twenty-one days" said the special
list.
And 1t wasn't until the patient was
halfway home that he suddenly stop

to laugh or get angry. He finally de-
cided that perhaps the secret he had
learned was worth the price he had
paid for II. It's good secret to
know.-Saturday Evening Post.

LITERARY NOTE.

In the February number of the
Bookman the editor gives the posi-
ton of honor in his delightful
"Chronicle and Comment to The
Torch, the new novel by Herbert M.
Hopkins. With fine appreciation Mr..
Maurice says: Gone of the most life
like characters of recent fiction is
Darlington, the plausible college pres
ident who figures in this story, and
because he is SO lifelike many are
making guesses as to his identity and
half expecting libel suits But pieces
of at least twenty college presidents
went to the making of that person
age, along with sundry chips of sin
full human nature wherever found,
and we recognize in him many per-
sons whom Mr.. Hopkins never saw.
This is the beauty of Darlington, and
of any other well-draWn elemental
uses of the Imagination. You will
see Darlington in the newspapers next
summer when extracts from the bac-
calaureate addresses begin to trickle
in. Young men, you are standing on
the threshold Grid on the armor of
righteousness. Go forward and not
back Look upand not down. That
