LincOln'S Melancholy.

Hopeful and cheerful as he ordinari-
ly seemed, there was in Mr. Lncoin's
disposition a strain of deep melan-
choly. This was not peculiar TO him
alone, for the pioneers as race We're
somber rather than gay. Their lives
had been passed for generations under
the most trying physical conditions,
near malaria-infested streams, and
where they breathed the poison of de-
'caying vegetation. insufficient shelter,
storms, the cold of winter, savage enc
mics. and the cruel labor that killed OFF
all hut the hardest of them, had at
the same time killed the happy-go- lucky
;gayety of an easier form of life. They
We're thoughtful, watchful. wary: capa-
HE indeed of wild merriment; but II
has been said that although a pioneer
might laugh. he could not easily be
made to smile. Lincoln's mind was un-
usually sound and sane and moral. He
had a cheerful, wholesome. sunny ma
ture, yet he had inherited the strongest
traits of the pioneers. and there was
in him, moreover, much of the poet,
with poets great capacity for ioy
and pain. 1t is not strange that us he
developed into manhood. especially
when his deeper nature began - feel
the STRINGS of ambition and of love.
that these seasons of depression and
gloom came upon him with overwhelm.

ROOSEVELT TO LABOR.
Blunt Talk TO GOmpers and Othe,
Leaders at White Houxe

Leaders at White House.
Some plain talk ON labor questions
was INDUCED in by President Roosevelt
in addressing President Gompers of
the American Federation of Labor and
the executive council of that body,
when the delegation called at the
White House and presented the az
peal previously given 10 Congress.
Those parts of the document refer
ring to legislation by Congress the
President did not touch upon. He said
with vigor that the laboring men could
easily kin the pending bill limiting
writ of injunction. lie favored it, but
Congress, he declared, was in 10 mood
to pass ii. He said that during his adj
minstration he had never sought an In
junction against labor organization,
but that he had applied for more than
twenty injunctions against capital.
He denied that the Chinese exclu-
sion law was violated. and said that
there were fewer Chinese in the United
States than ten or even twenty and
thirty years ago.
He spoke plainly on the eight-hour
law. He favors its application in the
United States, but declared it would
be an absurdity ON the Panama canal,
where only West Indian negro labor
was employed, and where the men work
not more than half the week.
On immigration. the President said
no undesirable immigrants should be
admitted and the country could not
have too many good immigrants.
Washington political circles We're
considerably stirred over the attitude
adopted by the Executive Committee
Of the American FeGeration OF Labor
as a result of their interview with the
President and Speaker Cannon. The
concluding paragraph in the address of
the Federation was construed as a
threat that the great labor organization
would go into politics and be an inn
portant factor in the impending Con-
gressional campaign, aud perhaps the
Presidential campaign. The paragraph
reads as follows:
Labor now appeals to you. and we
trust it may not be in vain. But if per
chance you may not heed us, we shall
appeal to the confidence and support Of
our fellow citizens"
Mr. Gompers said these words had
been chosen carefully. and their mean
ing is clear. If Congress fails to re-
dress what the organization regards as
grievances it will enter the field Of
politics and endeavor TO have organized
labor elect men to Congress to represent
its interests

An Original Party.

If you want something original III
the way of entertainments try some
thing new" party. Each guest at this
festivity must bring something new
it matters not what, depending wholly
upon the originality and fertile brain
of the guest to secure something I'M
known to the rest of the party.
At a function of this sort recently
given by a bright girl from the South
the program was extremely diversified.
The guests had brought entirely new
songs, which were sung for the COM
pany; new waltzes and two-steps,
which were danced; new books, which
were discussed: new jokes, new games,
new styles Of hair dressing or gowns,
and several brought visiting friends,
new to the rest of the company.
The hostess tried to make the menu
as new" as possible and in it were
several new dishes, such as lemons
stuffed with raw oysters rolled in
cracker crumbs, chopped celery aud to-
mato sauce, and a nodded brick of tur
key and cranberries in lemon jelly.

Health and beauty Hints.


The hair should be let loose at night
and silk handkerchief worn over the
head improves the gloss.
A few drops of ammonia or pinch
of borax will soften hard water and
make it very cleansing besides.
One of the best cures for hoarse-
ness is a strong decoction of horse
radish and little vinegar sweetened
with honey. Take tablespoonful
every half hour.
The woman who wishes to reduce
hef weight must avoid all kinds Of
soups, milk, cream and alcohol bev-
erages. AS far as possible the food
should be taken dry. The only fluid
to be taken should be plain or aerated
water.
If your scalp is tender do not use q
shampoo containing ammonia, soda or
borax, as they are irritating to ten
der scalps Beat the yolk of one egg
with an ounce of the spirits of rose
mary into one pint of hot water. Use
while warm.
One of the most effective methods
of whitening the teeth is to take an
orange wood stick and dip it into fine
wood ashes, rub the teeth both on the
inner and outer surfaces, when tar
tar and all stains will disappear as
if by magic. This treatment should
not be repeated more than once a
month.

S,oooooooooooooooooooooo

Just as truly as 1t takes a thief to
catch a thief" so it requires a merci-
full man to comprehend mercy An
incident in Lady Shells Life and
Manners in Persia" emphasizes the
fact that an act of humanity may be
interpreted as d deed of cruelty. In
writing of the barbarity of the Per-
SLAMS toward their domestic animals,
Lady Shell says:
In taking a drive today, we passed
poor camel, seated on the ground,
who gazed at US with a melancholy
look. He seemed so distressed that
we stopped the carriage to make in
quiries, and we found he had good
reason for sorrow. As he had re-
ceived an injury which rendered him
incapable of further work his master
had left him to die of hunger, the
wretched creature being unable to rise
and seek for food in the desert This
barbarous practice is general among
the Persians. All old and WORKOUT
animals are discarded and driven out
to find subsistence as best they can.
My husband used invariably tr
cause the old horses of the mission to
be shot, instead of following the uni
verSal custom of turning them adrift
on the roadside. OF course he could
not see this poor camel suffer. We
went to the nearest village and told
the inhabitants they should kill the
animal. They Immediately sailed out,
twenty of them, and slaughtered the
poor beast.
The next day the owner came b
the house and demanded the price Of
his camel. which had been slain con.
trary to law. Ny husband told him
he would abide by the decision of the
law 1T was decreed that he had act
ed on mere presumption, and moreover
the owner had a right to do as he
pleased with his own property. SO my
husband had TO pay tenth of the
value of the camel
But the matter did not end herr.
The reputation that Colonel She'll esA
tablished by his treatment of the cam
ell and the mission horses proved to-
be an undesirable one. Soon after the
camel episode an old man in the
Shel Is employ committed some mis-
demeanor, and was threatened with
punishment. He seemed much alarm
ed, and it was found that the old fet
low feared for his life.
II dare say you will cause me to be
punished he said to the colonel
Are you not that vezeer who causes
all the old horses to be Shot after their
faithful services? So why should not
an old servant like me be slainE'

CHAPTER NTV

Mary Adair recovered her conscious
ness in short time, and as she was still
trembling with excitement, Ruth insisted
that she should return instantly to the
house On the way thither Mary re-
lated the particulars of what had lust
transp ired-the sudden appearance of the
Tories and the danger to which Haw-
thOrnc had been exposed.
Here is a secret for woman,s curi-
osity TO unravel," said Ruth, playfully.
who IS this Lewis Hawthorne of whom
you have been speaking?"
Mary Adair colored, and Miss Strick-
land kindly forbore to press the subject.
When the two young ladies had reached
the house the recent adventure was made
know TO Mrs. Strickland. who had been
consid, rably alarmed by the tumult which
she had heard, without knowing the ex.
act position of affairs.
While proper explanations were being
made, he parties were again thrown into
some excitement by the sound of prClong-
ed shouting at n considerable distance
To hasten outside into the open air was
an impulse quickly felt and ebeyed by
each.
Il can see Cunningham's men," said
Ruth.
They are still near the spot where
Lewis was in such danger added Mary
Adair.
There seems to be something unusu-
ally exciting taking place" remarked
Mrs. Strickland. Let us walk forward
IN that direction
The parties proceeded a few hundred
yards and again paused.
Perhaps suggested Ruth. they are
interrInS the body
Ana it is possible" added Mary. in
an sgitated voice, that they have Lewis
Hawthorne"
Heaven forbid,' exclaimed Mrs.
Strickland, for the wretches show no
mercy"
AT mat instant Ruth uttered pierre
ing sh.iek and chung convulsively for sup
port. To the earnest inquiries of the
latter. and the sympathetic Mary, she re-
spondad only by signs and tears. At
length she was able TO exclaim:
"'Ils he Ills he!
ITS who?' cried Mary, whom Ruth's
ordinations had placed on rack of
suspense.
'FJrstall." replied Ruth. with shud-
Ger. II should know him among thou
sand"
Mrs. Strickland and Miss Adair looked
Anxiously and steadily toward the group
of persons. Both felt sick at heart when
their worst fears were confirmed. They
