Hannibal HamIIn's First Try For the
IuIfed States senate.

-
IuIfed States senate.
When Hannibal Hamlin was speaker
OF b Maine house of representatives.
away back IN the fortles OF the last
century. there was IN that body a GER
tails gentleman OF faultless attire,
pleasing manners. good address and
sOzae reputation. but he had one foible.
His hair was very thin. and he was
highly sensitive In regard to ii.
To hide bis approaching badness he
had a habit OF carefully stroking with
bandoIlne or other preparation each
particular hair la Its place. One day
while In the chair as speaker MI. Ham
lin, In the innocence OF a good and
Joke loving nature, sent for this gen
tieman aud. looking ixedly at his
smooth and polished pate, said with a
chuckle:
BLANK, old fellow, l just wanted to
tell you that you've got one Of the
hairs of your head crossed over the
other
You insult me. sir! You insult me!''
replied the member, with unexpected
and altogether unnecessary indigna-
ton, and then. refusing to listen either
to reason or explanation. he left the
speakers desk and returned to his seat.
When Mr.. Hamlin became a candi-
date for the United States senate this
gentleman was a member of the upper
house OF the Maine legislature. AL
though a member of the same party
and only n more vote was needed to
secur Mr.. Hamlin's election. he posi-
lively refused to vote for the man by
whom he believed he had been lnsulted.
He was defeated for a seat In the
senate-by a hair. but when the next
vacancy occurred he was elected

IMPROVING the Herd.

II a man will take pains in selecting.
the standard will be gradually raised
each year. Weed out the poor ones
and breed only from the best. DO not
condemn a helfer with her first calf
IL she is a promising individual. But
II she continues to do poorly on second
lactation she should be kept no longer.
We must set our standard high for a
good COW. BY keeping a milk record
OF the Individual COW for a season and
by use of the tester to determine the
percentage of butter fat, 1t is quite
easy to find out the cows that will
come up to the standard.-F. B. Allen,

The women are getting theirs again.
The Rev. A. G. Lawson of New York,
in a discussion of the Ethics of Pres
ent Day Fiction, said recently that
women wrote most of the modern
wicked novels, that they do all the
that they act in and patronize the sa-
lacious plays. The London Bookman
in an article on the Fleshly School of
Modern Fiction lays the blame for the
popularity of such books as Three
Weeks at the door OF the women and
points to the fact that most of the
modern bad" novels are written by
women: The Baroness Won Hutton,
Elinor Glynn, May Sinclair, Maude H.
Yardley and others who vie with one
another in realistic" descriptions and
sensational situations. AS women buy
the novels and their authors and pub
fishers would starve to death without
the patronage of women readers 1t is
a grave charge, that of the writer in
the London Bookman who found In
the twelve best selling novels of the
day nothing but disorderly sex-rela-
tionships, cruelty, cynicism, bias
Oh, the Perfect Ladies that sneak into
the book stores and ask for Three
Weeks!
