They amt no doubt about that
And yet they's somepin--I don't know

That folders me, here and there.
And hants and worries and spares

A kind O. feel in the air!
They's feel. as I say. in the air that's

And am spryest on my fact.

But it comes with hrismas, and no

A kind o. feel in the air.
Is 1t the racket the children raise?--

Is 1t the, eyes and the cheeks ablaze--
Like my own wuz. long ago?-
Is it the bleat O. the whistle and beat

 One of the most conspicuous ex- amples of the young old woman of the twentieth century is the queen of England herself. who without any exaggeration looks today younger than some of her own daughters, although she was sixty-one years old in Decem- Der and has been married forty-rline years. Her gracious and beautiful ma JeSty cannot conceal her age, because 1t is down in the royal record against her. but without the record no one would know her to be more than thir- ty. She has kept her youthful appear ance against odds that would have driven many a woman into retirement in despair. for she Is slightly lame, somewhat deaf and has a scar. caused by an affection of the neck, which me- cessitated the invention of the dog collar" her majesty always wears.

 How do these women keep their youth?
 Well. probably a majority of the sex could dc the same If they had grit to use the means and likewise time to give to the matter. Queen Alexandra's devotion to beauty culture Is the most strenuous of any. It is said her majesty's exquisite face is privately in charge of q famous Amer ican complexion specialist, but If so, tho American specialist is wise enough not to tell.
 But the means in general made use of by Alexandra are fresh air. dieting and vigorous exercise. Fishing Is said to make the mind serene and free the countenance from wrinkles: therefore her majesty goes a-fishinS often.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it is ln
 Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char coal Is the safest and most efflcient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize It's value when taken into the human system for the same cleans Ing purpose.
 Charcoal Is a remedy that the moro you take of 1t the better; 1t is not e drug at all but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present In the stomach and intestines and car- ries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions or other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and irn- proves the complexion, 1t whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathaFtic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; 1t dislnfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in ona form or another. but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is fin Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Will low charcoal. and other harmless anti.

Theodore Triton at -eventy.


 Only a few weeks ago Theodore Tfl- ton. the antagonist of Henry Ward Beecher In 1874. celebrated his seven tieth birthday anniversary in his resi- dence on tho Avenue Kleber, in Paris. As a rule his natal anniversaries are marked y gathering of the American literary set; Triton recites a poem or makes an address. This year the function was postponed. and the re- port went the rounds that the last had been held.
 Mir. TIlton Is. however. in fairly good health. He may be seen, any morn color and spirit belle all the ugly rus mors He keep up his journalistic work. though he does not care to have 1t more parti lariy identified. From the day the Tilton- BeecIier jury disa- greed he has summed the public gaze of his countrymen at home: and 1t fs no kindness to indicfl' the present sources of his incomG, though the American read him much oftener than they read some other American cor respondents residing in Europe. Ills contributions appear under various names.
 Mir. Triton was asked if 1t were true that, after his death. the world would be given an opportunity to refresh it's recollections of the sensational iitiga- tion of thirty years ago; but he replied that he did not care to discusss the matter.
 From another source it was ascer- tained that he has prepared a full state ment of the whole difficulty, which will be brought out by a leading New York publishing house thirty days after the death of Hilton.

H Dew Dream of Fair lUomen

If Tennyson were alive today he would enlarge the list in his poem of fair women. It Is certain. too, that the list would contain several American women. The American woman has likewise repeated ancient history. Ju- dith was a widow, Helen of Troy and Cleopatra were near. if not actually, in the forties when they by their fas- cinations changed the fate of nations. The American woman has shown mod ern society that 1t is no longer the young girl. but the matron. even in some cases the middle aged matron. who Is the most charming and often- times the most beautiful of her sex.
 A gentleman still young tells me that when he was kid" not 80 very long ago, there was In his family certain Aunt Harriet, twenty-six years old and unmarried. When the chil- dren were for any cause angered at Aunt Harriet they used to go off in a corner by themselves and vent their spite on her by exclaiming venomously and vigorously, old maid. old maid, old maid!'
 Now nobody except perhaps gIggling Sixteen would think of calling a young lady of twenty-six an old maid. American women of middle age arc among the most influential as well as handsomest leaders in British society today. At the christening of her sec #ond grandchild 1t was said that Con suelo Yznaga, the American dowager duchess of Manchester. was one of the most attractive women in the church. Her figure was willowy and girlish. her complexion as beautiful as it had been twenty-five years before.
 Consuelo Yznaga has had many sor- rows: few women. titled or untitled, have experienced more. yet they have passed as winds pass over the ocean; when the storm subsidies the ocean is smooth. Dowager Duchess consuelo, beloved and honored of Queen Alexan- dra. is called in England the April grandmother"
 There, too. Is Mrs. Arthur Paget, formerly Miss Stevens. or New York. who. in spite of the accident which lamed her knee, is one of the most active and influential women In Brit ish court society. Mrs George Corn wallis West, formerly Lady Randolph Churchill. in her girlhood Jennie Je- rome, of New York. Is said to have re- marked when she was married to Mir. Vest a man q little younger than her own eldest son. T expect to be wildly happy for five years and then let come what will"
 The five years have gone by and still MT. and Mrs George. Corvallis West seem happy. Still this American woman Is as brilliant. as witty and as noted for her intellectual attain ments as ever. She retains the attrac- tiveness that distinguished her in
