The Professor. Love Story.

An amusing story is told concerning
Professor Duncan of st. Andrews uni
versity. who was in his younger days
a teacher in Dundee. The embryo
professor proposed to a lady. who curt
~ refused him. Shortly afterward Mr.
Duncan became Professor Duncan, and
the lady heard no more of him, moi
even by letter.
Some time after she went to st. An
drew's to try the effect of sea bath
ing. She saw Duncan often, and he
talked to her on every subject except
the subject she was now apparently
interested in.
At last she courageously screwed VI
her courage and. coming to the point
said:
"AIr Duncan, there was subject
you once mentioned to me some time
ago. and really l am rather surprised
that you have never required to it, fol
/ have changed my mind since that
time
The professor simply remarked:
"Yes. but l, too, have changed my
mind. "-London Tit-Bits.

HOW TO WIN A HUSBAND.

Woman's sphere in this goth century is
not limited any more than is mans. She
can occupy almost any business position

household. Every girl should know her

claim that 1t is a logical place for the
remains of the noted sailor. They say
that If his remains be inferred at the

incentive to the young middies to follow
in his patriotic footsteps. They admit
that while Arlington is beautiful ceme-
terry, the place for John Paul Jones' re-
mains is Annapolis, for Arlington is main
ly the resting place Of army officers and
only few naval officers, while Annapolis
is distinctly a naval cemetery.
The argument for Arlington is that it is

Another argument In favor of New York
is that it is the home of Ambassador
Porter. through whose personal efforts the
remains were recovered from the abandon
ed cemetery in Paris. The old Trinity
Church yard is named as the place of
burial.
The claims of Philadelphia rest mainly
on it's prominence in all movements for
the establishment of the republic in which
John Paul Jones was leading spirit. 1t

Fredericksburg's application is based on
the fact that the heros brother lived
there, and that Jones himself spent a good
deal of his time in that city when not
afloat
The claims receiving the most consider
alton. however, are those of Washington
and Annapolis. While naval officers gen.

other federal officials incline to the ma

The final decision of this question rests
with President Roosevelt. and will I'M
doubtedly be presented to his attention soon
after his return from the west. Before
acting on the matter 1t is likely that he
will desire to confer with Ambassador
Porter, who is expected to return to this
country in the early summer and who. Of
all persons, is probably most directly in
terested in the disposition of the remains
of the revolutionary hero, the recovery of
which was almost entirely due to his per-
