his TRANSPARENCY"
Title Which Would Not Be the Least
Uniting to President
Roosevelt.

In Bermuda last winter l met a
Catholic priest, writes John Bur-
roughs, in Atlantic, who had sat on
the platform at some place in New
England very near the president
while he was speaking, and who said,
THE man had not spoken three MIN
utes before | loved him, and had any
one tried to modest him, could have
torn him to pieces" 1t is the Glality
in the man that instantly inspires
such a liking as this in strangers that
will, | am sure, safeguard him in all
public places.
| once heard him say that he did
not like to be addressed as His Ex-
cellency;" he added laughngly, They
might just as well call me His Trans
parency, for all care" 1t is this
transparency, this direct, out-and-out,
unequivocal character of him that is
one source of his popularity. The
people do love transparency-all Of
them but the politicians.
A friend of his one day took him to
task for some mistake he had made
In one of bis appointments.
"My dear sir" replied the president,
where you know of one mistake l
have made, know of ten" How such
candor must make the politicians

Both Parted Their Hair in the Mid
die, But Ones Part Was Much
the Wider.

One OF the veteran lawyers of Bur
lington, Vt, is A. V. Spalding. writes
f. II. Kelsey of Lowell, in the Boston
Globe. one day when he was trying a
case in the Chittenden county court
he called as a witness stylishly
dressed young man who parted his
hair in the middle, Il practice that
used to be regarded as indicative OF
a dude" The young man. however,
gave his testimony in plain, straight
forward manner and resumed his seat.
When the argument came to be
made by the counsel opposed to MIR,
Spalding, reference was made in a
peculiarly cutting manner to the fop-
pish looking witness who parted his
hair in me middle.
On rising to reply. Mr.. Spalding
said 81 fail to see how the fact that
this young man parts his hair in the
middle has any bearing in this case.
He certainly has a right to part his
hair in the middle, and he parts 1t ex-
actly as my brother on the other side
does his, only" he added, pointing to
the perfectly bald head of the oppos-
ing lawyer, che doesn't part 1t quite
SO wide"
