In my long connection with the cir.
Gus I have met many distinguished
public men. Some of these have IN
consciously amused me while they
were being amused. Considering them
as whole, however, they have in
spired me with this principal thought
that the circus is indeed a great
Ieveler of all distinctions.
In all ages and forms of its exist
ence the circus has been the only
amusement that appeals to and salts
fies all classes of humanity. All other
amusements cater to certain more or
less limited classes
When President Roosevelt and his
Cabinet. his family and their families,
drop official and social cares for the
circus, they are doing merely what
the Roman Emperors and their as
sociates and ladies did thousands Of
years ago. The Roman Senators did
exactly what our Senator's do to-day
only they went more often and stay
ed longer. And the seats were hard
er-they were stone.
I thought something like this when
I sat on the rim of the great ancient
amphitheater at Milan, Italy, recall

tent at Washington. don't know now
why I should have been thinking IF
Grant at the time. Perhaps because
he was the greatest Roman of them

that time the popular idol.
The only time I ever saw Grant
laugh was that day at the circus. And
what do you suppose it was that ex-
cited the merriment of man who
seldom even smiled? The trick donkey.

one but his trainer could ride him If
he couldn't buck a stranger off he'd

1t was something as old as an al

had probably witnessed it when he
was a boy; therefore, he laughed
heartily, and in this he renewed his
youth.

Yet he came to the show alone. He |

There were no circus boxes or chairs
then, and the President sat among the
spectators on the same kind of seat |
that they occupied.
Some years afterward I met him at |
the show unexpectedly and he asked !!

or untamed horses. and was managed
by Prof. smith, formerly with Rarey,
and on the lines taught by the later

The difference between our Amer

was strongly marked on this occasion.
I could not understand the language.
but I understood this: Only the

these awaited with becoming defer

of me in good stiff English whether

Infancy 1t Is common In anaemic.
,emaciated and rachitic children who
have suffered much from indigestion
and Intestinal disorders Pearly white
teeth are more fragile, as rule, than
those Of yelloWish cast, and rough
ness, irregularity and OPAQUE white
specks usually mean early decay.
The discovery of these nutritional de-
fects in an infant should be an incen-
tive to careful investigation of its
general health and the institution of
corrective treatment. In some cases
no more Is required than regulation Of
the diet; sometimes special diet Is
necessary, with, perhaps, the admins
tration Of tonics designed to increase
the deposit Of lime for the hardening
of the teeth.
Decay Is caused by bacteria. The
knowledge Of this fact enables us to do
a great deal for the preservation Of the
most imperfect teeth. When the tenn
porary teeth have been preserved, the
growth of the second teeth progresses
normally, and the result Is more uni
form and Of better quality.

The Patient Woman.

Patience liz the supreme quality Of
good wife. When humanity shall
have evolved perfect race Of men
there will be less need Of this virtue
in women Now 1t Is chief Of the In
dispensable qualities. For the goth
century wife must inevitably learn
that she has married an, unprotected
creature many degrees below the god
of her giriish fancy. And for the fac
ing Of this unwelcome fact she re-
quires abundant patience.
Woman's most blessed work In the
world is the long, long task Of foster
ing the blossoms and rlpening the
fruit Of character in the young. For
this there is need of a patience half
divine.
"You are growing to have the look
In your face that mother has. YOU
don't look like us boys any more
said boy to his sister. That new
look which the boy noted but could
not name was patience. There is
scarcely a wifely virtue but by over
Indulgence may become defect. Yet
no wife has ever had too large stock
of patience. The patient wife for
gives her husbands III humors. She
discounts his failures and exaggerates
his successes.
