WORTH THE TROUBLE 1T TOOK.
Hiram Needed Incentive to Go After
Lost Money.

Old Hiram was known by his neigh
bors as easy Soin',' with occasional
lapses of native shrewdness. One
summer evening he was sitting on
the front porch with his wife when he
dropped a quarter 1t rolled with fatal
accuracy into the only hole in the
floor
Hiram sat looking at the hole for
several minutes.
He appeared to be turning over in
his mind a deep problem. Then he
heaved sigh:
Amt you going to get it?" asked
his wife, anXiously.
I've been thinking" he said. slow
ly I'D have to go out to the barn
and get the Ratchet, take off those
boards, crawl in under there in the
dirt, crawl out again, and nail on the
boards, and | guess it amt worth
while. | may be going in under there
for something else some time The
moneys safe
We'll, ! never!" exclaimed his wife.
"anybody'd think you had money to
throw to the dogs"
Hiram knew that she would argue
until she had the last word, so he al
ways gave it to her at the beginning
OF the discussion. For ten or fiji
teen minutes longer he sat gazing at
the hole. Then he got up and dropped
another quarter and half dollar
into it.
"Why, Hiram" cried his wife, have
you gone clean, plumb crazy?"
I've been thinking" he replied,
that if it wasn't worth while going in
under there for quarter it was worth
while going for dollar
And he started for the barn to get
the Ratchet.

ABOVE ALL AFFAIRS OF STATE.
Small Caller Absorbed Interest of
Grover Cleveland.

There are many stories told of our
late eX-president, Grover Cleveland, to
illustrate his dual nature, as a man
OF iron or OF velvet, as the case
seemed to demand but one instance,
related by a man of affairs in private
often, has never until now appeared
in print.
He had called on the president at
late hour in the day and had discussed
with him weighty matters of policy
and craftsmanship, and was Just about
to conclude the interview and take
leave, when an almost imperceptible
knock was heard upon the door of the
private office, the most interesting OBJ
lect in which is the handsome desk
made from the timbers of Sir John
Franklin's ship Resolute and present
toria personally
Mr.. Cleveland called: Come in"
but the soft rapping still kept up. un-
Til he arose and went himself to the
door to investigate AS it opened the
White House baby then Miss Esther
Cleveland" in the arms of her nurse.
stood revealed, and her wee fist, in
the hand of her nurse, revealed the
source of the knocks.
In moment there was transfer;
and Mr.. Cleveland came back to his
desk, introduced his small daughter.
and, opening a lower drawer on the
left side of the historic desk, took
from it handful of toys for the baby
to play with. The friend who made
the visit said that the scene was only
paralleled in his mind by the we'll
known portrait of Abraham Lincoln
and his son Tad, long a classic in the
field OF domestic art.

Romance of a GLASGOW Bow,

Fortune, as are told, only knocks at
a mans door once in a lifetime, and
il refused admittance passes by, never
to return again. The saying is belied
however, by the career of George Nc.
Culloch, a Glasgow boy, who arrived
in Australia just 60 years ago, with
less than $25 in his pocket, and who
died the other day millionaire This
is how Mr.. McCulloch threw away his
first chance of acquiring a fortune:
One night, sitting in tiny shanty at
the foot of the Broken Hill mine. soon
after its discovery, he played a game
of eucher with companion, his stake
being the fourteenth share of the
mine itself. He lost, and the share
which thus passed out of his hands
was, six years later, worth no less than
$6,250000.

Was 1t Ghost of Brother?

Miss Isla Stewart, for 81 years ma
iron of st. Bartholomew hospital,
London, recently told this story at a
public dinner given in her honor:
Some years ago, in one of her wards.
lay little boy who was dying of hip
disease He was an orphan with only
one brother, a sailor then serving
on a British warship in Chinese wa.
tiers. One morning the boy told her
that he had had such a happy night, as
he had dreamed that his brother was
with him at his bedside When the
night nurse came to report she said
that she had had curious experience.
When looking along the ward during
the night she had been astonished to
see a sailor in the ward beside the
boys bed. Resenting the intrusion.
she had gone to the bed to inquire into
the matter when she found there was
nobody there. Twice afterward dur.
ing the night she had seen the same
appariton, AT last she turned down
the gas and altered the position of
some plants. After that she did not
see the sailor again.

Character Molds the Face

1t is not in words applicable with
what divine lines and lights the eXel.

and gid the hardest and coolest coun-

the features; neither on them only,
but on the whole body the moral and
intellectual faculties have operation,

WHEN SHE REMOVED HIS BOOTS
Wife of Clubman Was Not Altogether
SeIf-Sacrifcing.

Everybody in London said H. K
Adair, the western detective, lis wear
ing now, like us, the semi-total pledge
button. The pledge is, you know, an
oath only to drink at lunch and din
ner
I'm London I heard Lord Roberts
the head of the English movement
make a speech at banquet.
"One thing the little old soldier said
was that wives could without fear al
low semi-total husbands to go to the
club. A semi-total husband would
always come home from the clut
early.
Thanks also to the semi-tota
pledge, wives wouldn't have to look
after their husbands so vigilantly.
There was an old soldier who said
to a friend:
"My wife does look after me we'll
She even takes off my boots for me-

ONLY NEEDED THE COLD BATH.
Sense of New York Policeman Headed
Off Mad Dog Scare.

Policeman Harmon of the Coney
island station nipped mad dog scare
in the bud the other day, and by the
application of a little common sense
saved not only the crowd on the beach
Off Seaside park but the dog itself
from anything worse than an uncom
Portable Is minutes. The dog was a
brindle bull belonging to Mrs. Garrett
Smith of Quincy street, Brooklyn, and
when it began to act queerly on the
beach scare seemed imminent.
Harmon saw the dog and got to it
just about the time that the animal
collapsed. He picked it up in his arms
and started on the run for the Coney
island station
Heat prostration. Nothing worse y
was his diagnosis when Mrs. Smith
begged to be told the trouble with her
pet.
In the station Harmon carried the
dog into Capt. Kelley's room, and
Lieut.. Nedwell turned on the cold
water in the captains bathtub When
the tub was full they dropped the dog
into it. In few minutes it regained
its senses, and in Is minutes it was
all right again.-N. Y. Times.

is ALTOGETHER OUT OF DATE
According to This, Modesty Is Very
Much Thing of the Past.

Modesty is supposed to have come
over in the Mayfower, along with the
story of Rebecca at the Well Since
then Boston has become psychological
and modesty has subiminal self.
There is tradition that modesty
once lived in New York, but this has
never been proved. 1t is highly i'm
probable, especially as New York has
always had smart set.
Modesty, indeed, is a recluse Her
pew in church has been given up. She
never had q box at the opera She
would not dare be operated upon in
any hospital. The children would dis,
concert her in any home. With no
roof to shelter her, no nourishment
TO sustain her, she walks the untrod-
den paths, a miserable and discon-
tented thing of the past.-Lippincott'

Made National Anthem.

When the ameer of Afghanistan Wis
tied India last year he was given the
title of his majesty" instead of his
highness, +" as previously. The foreign
department of the Indian government
was much exercised over the question
whether it would be right that he
should be greeted with the strains OF
God Save the King" the Afghans
having no national anthem. The diff.
ficulty was referred to the commander
in-chief What does it matter?" Lord
Kitchener is said to have replied
Play a bar of music. Who'll know
the difference?" 1t was felt that a
single bar of music was meager
dish TO set before king, but the idea
was adopted, and, whenever guards of
honor presented arms, the band PLAYED
The first eight bars of the slow march
from "Scipio" And now the Indian
newspapers are all praising the beauty
of the Afghan national anthem.
