SHOWING OFF A GUEST.
The Inkeeper Was Determined Fessen'
den Should Appear.

One night while ex-Secretary Of the
Treasury Fessenden was on political
mission to the northern part of Maine
he stopped at small hotel.
In the center of the house was big
stove that warmed two rooms. In one
of the apartments Judge Fessenden es-
tablished himself and prepared to
take proper comfort during the even
ing. Just as he had got we'll located
with a book the landlord, a six foot
French Canadian, came in.
Excuse me, 'seir," said he, but &c.
Ed Wiggone Of Maysville, she be In de
odder room, an she wan te see Mr..
Fessendeen."
Tell Mr.. Wiggin I'll be in little
later" said Judge Fessenden, turning
another leaf in his book.
The landlord went out. He returned
IN a moment "Mr. Wiggone she send
his compliments, an she say dat she
wan Mr.. Fessendeen right away"
The interruption just at that mo-
ment rather nettled the judge. who
was in no way accustomed to dictator
ship. He sent back such a sharp re-
ply that 1t was easily seen that the
landlord was cut by his asperity. In
lust thirty seconds the landlord was
back. Judge Fessenden raised his
ewes to find the man staring at him
with look Of desperate resolve. With
suppressed excitement in his tones the
tall landlord spoke.
"Mr. Wiggone say she wan see Mr.
Fessendeen quick, an she CUES o de
house, an I say she goin to see him.
Forthwith the big landlord swooped
down on the astonished gentleman,
seized him, tucked him under his arm
and strobe across into the room OF the
peremptory gentleman from Maysville'
"Mr. Wiggones," calmly said the
landlord, as matter Of fact as though
he had just delivered a pitcher OF Ice
water, here be Mr. Fessendeen." He
set the indignant "caller" down on
chair and retired smilingly.

Only IS per Cent of the Adult Males
Ranked as Such.

Ranked as Such.
Per cent Of men who drink, 80.
Per cent who drink to excess, 30.
Per cent who are inebriates, IL.
Per cent who are incurable, Z.
Per cent Of women who drink, So.
The man who is responsible for these
figures is Dr. w. D. Lawrence OF Min
neapolis.
Fifteen per cent Of the adult males
in this country are teetotalers," said
DR.. Lawrence to the Des Moines cor
respondent Of the Clinton Herald,
while SIS per cent are what may be
termed privilege drinkers; that is, men
who claim the right to take drink
as 1t pleases them, but who do not
drink to excess.
Thirty per cent are diseased through
the use of drink or drugs-these sta
tistics relate to the use Of drugs as
we'll as the use of liquor. They are
inebriates and have acquired the hab-
It, which is beyond their control. or
these IL per cent are submerged.
"They are dipsomaniacs, and require
the attention of the public, aid Of
benevolent societies, and organizations.
Seven per cent are hopeless, and 1t Is
useless to expend funds on them ex-
cept to isolate and detain them, hu-
namely and at work, il possible"

he came to me in my sorrowful retire.
ment.
How you have suffered for my
sake!" 1 faltered, as / looked into the
handsome face which other people call
ed disfigured, but which seemed fairer
than ever to me.
1T is pleasure, not pain, to suffer for
those we love-" he answered. Il would
gladly do the same thing again, Esther.
for you are dearer to me than my eyes,
dearer to me than my life. If you count
the pangs have borne worthy Of pay
ment, give me the thing which I most
covet in the world-yourself."
He held out his hand. I placed my
own in it, and hid the face whose
beauty he had bought with a price"
upon his broad breast.
Are you mine, Esther?"
Forever" 1 sobbed. And month
later I became his wife.

OLD MEN IN THE SENATE.
Long Terms In That Body a compar'
ativeIy New Fashion.

Long Terms In That Body a compar-
ativeIy New Fashion.
William Boyd Allison Of Iowa, has
been in congress forty-two years, ever
since the second Inauguration of Abra-
ham Lincoln, says the Boston Globe.
For thirty-four years he has been a
senator and now he announces himself
as ready to receive a seventh term.
Already his record Of senatorial SER
vice is unequaIed, and IL he shall serve
out another term he will have held
his seat for forty-two years and been
in congress a full half century.
The increasing tendency to continue
old men in the senate is a remarkable
development Of our politics.
It is surely not due to the softness
of the berth. The senate is the most
influential and the hardest working
legislative body in the country; in
either respect 1t has few equals in the
world. Yet the men in 1t who have
passed middle age must constitute
nearly half of its membership.
There are fourteen who are more
than three score and ten and half a
dozen Of these are about 75. Five Of
the twelve senator's from New Eng
land are septuagenarians. Ar least
twenty members have served more
than two terms. Half of the New
England senator's are in that favored
class.
Long terms in the senate Of the
United States are comparatively new
fashion. They are rare in the first half
of the 18th century. The name Of
Thomas H. Benton suggests striking
exception to the rule in those earlier
days, for he sat in the senate thirty
years.
The truth is that seat there was
not so much coveted then as now. Men
resigned 1t lightly. With three ex-
ceptions-Strong, Pickering and Var
num-no Massachusetts, senator un-
til Webster served the length Of one
term.
George Cabot and Samuel Dexter re-
signed from the senate to accept cabi-
net places, and Harrison Gray Otis
threw up his place even to be mayor
Of Boston. John Quincy Adams was
so insulted when the legislature indi-
Gated it's preference for another as his
successor that he refused to serve out
his term. Benjamin Goodhue, Dwight
Foster and El Porter Ashmun resign.
ed for no public reason whatever.
James Lloyd, who was twice elected,
resigned each time before completing
his six years.
When Webster had served fourteen
years he retired to enter Harrtsons
cabinet Being reelected. he again re-
tired after five years to accept a place
in Fillmore's cabinet.
Hoar's twenty-seven years and Sum-
ner's twenty-three in the senate gave
them the record from Massachusetts,,
and each served until death. Wilson,
had served eighteen years when he
left to be vice president. Dawes, at
the end Of eighteen years, was forced
out and his seat was taken by Mr.
Lodge. who has now been in fourteen

Unexpected Meeting on Jungle Path

1 was patrolling the jungle paths be-
tween two Of my chowkies, accompan-
led by my jemadar, and on approach

were startled by hearing a tiger roar
almost at our feet. l coughed pretty

FL The United States is likely to
adopt an idea from the practice of
Mexico and Liberia, where the names
of cities and towns are engraved upon
their postage stamps. 1t is now pro-
posed to issue stamps for the 5000
presidential postoffices, each bearing
the name of the offices whereat the
stamps are issued, these names being
printed after the stamps are engraved.
Among other advantages this change
will make it much easier to trace a
letter by the stamps, and make more
equitable showing as to the volume of
business at the various postoffices.

In her will she provided handsomely
for Marcia Johnsbury; but the bulk OF
her property was given unconditionally
to her beloved granddaughter, Esther
Fox.

Jim made no effort to obey the summons
OF the bell. He returned to the prayer
closet; he wanted to be alone.
In his dressing room Henry received two
messages One was from his mother: 1t

Come to the prayer closet at ten.-Jim.'
At dinner Diana strained her eyes In vain
down the long table, and then watched the

no purpose. Had he obeyed her note? BY
the desolation Of her heart she knew that
she had not wished such swift obedience.
