There are two of us.
We are composite.
There are at least two of us. In
some Of us there are a half dozen,
more or less. In all of us there are both
n DR.. Jekyll and a Mr.. Hyde. We are
twO-Or more-in one.
For instance:
There is yourself when you are cross
and crochety and even unjust to those
you love. But for our own the bitter
tone, though we love our own the
best" is sometimes pathetically true
And there is yourself when you are on
the street or in your place Of business
or at church, when you are smiling
amiable, cordial.
Are you then hypOcrite?
Not necessarily.
You may be compared to a revolving
pedestal, painted on each side a diff
ferent color. 1t is one pedestal, but
many sided You show only one side
of yourself at a time When things
go wrong at home you are Mr.. Hyde;
abroad you are DR.. Jekyll. Those who
know you best, the home folks, know
that you are many sided and that you
have your good side.
Again:
The Mr.. Hyde appears in you when
you are irritated or disappointed or
when you feel a wrong is done you.
You want to get even" You strike
back. At another time some potent
force moves you to be the benevolent
DR.. Jekyll. Sometimes you feel you
can do and dare. and while the mood
lasts you can do and dare to do.
Most Of us, like chameleons. take
color for the moment from our sur
roundingS.
When you make sharp speeches to
wife or husband or children you are
not all there. Only one side of you
speaks. Afterward you are sorry for
the sharp words. The pedestal has re-
VOWED, showing another side.
Now and then a man comes to this
earth who is nearly always himself, a
totality of personality. He does as he
wants to do. He puts himself-all him
self-into every effort. In him things
converge to a purposeful end.
That is greatness.
You and | have rare moments when
we are "all there" Every faculty
works in harmony. For moment we
are really great. 1t is in these sublime
moments, these really great moods,
that masterpieces are made, audiences
won, inventions created, battles won.
But. alas. most of us cannot long be
Or. Jekylls! The pedestal will revolve.
The Mr.. Hyde of us will show him.

A CHINESE STORY.
The Way Mandarin's Wise Wife De.
cided Baby Case.

Two women came before mandarin
In China, each Of them protesting that
she was the mother of a little child
they had brought with them. They
were so eager and so positive that the
mandarin was sorely puzzled. He re-
tired to consult with his wife, who
was q wise and clever woman, whose
opinion was held in great repute in
the neighborhood. She requested five
minutes in which to deliberate. At the
end Of that time she spoke, LET the
servants catch me large fish in the
river, and let 1t be brought here alive"
This was done. Bring me now the
infant" she said, "but leave the two
women In the outer chamber" This
was done too. Then the mandarins
wife caused the baby to be undressed
and its clothes to be put on the fish,
Garry the creature outside now and
throw 1t into the river In the sight of
the two women" The servant obeyed
her orders, fiinging the fish into the
water, where it rolled about and strug-
gled, disguised no doubt by the wrap

Without a moments pause one Of the
women threw herself into the river
with a shrek. She must save her

Is the true mother" she declared, and
the mandarin's wife commanded that
she should be rescued and the child
given to her. And the mandarin nod
ded his head and thought his wife the
wisest woman in the Flowery King
dom. Meanwhile the false woman
crept away. She was found out in her
imposture, and the mandarians wife
forgot all about her in the occupation

White and red wines owe their diff

mer Is permitted to ferment without
the grape skirts, these are allowed to
remain in the case Of the latter. The
color Of the grapes makes no difference
whatever to the color of the wine
which they produce, for the juice of

THE WHEATFl!:lD.
Where the BilIowing Golden Waves
Stretch From Sky to Sky.

Take a look at the wheatfield that
has been brought up to perfection as
1t stands, yellow as gold, with the
sheen Of the sea, billowing from sky
line to sky line like an ocean of gold,
where the wind touches the ripping
wave crests with the tread of invisi-
BILE feet In California, in Oregon, in
Washington, in Dakota, in the Cana
dian northwest, you may ride all day
on horseback through the wheatfields
without break in the flow Of yellow
heavy headed grain-no fence lines,
no meadow lands, no shade trees,
no knobs and knobs and hills and hol-
lows Of grass or black earth through.
From dawn till dark, from sunrise, in
a burst Of fiery splendor over the
prairie horizon, to shutdown, when the
crimson thing hangs like huge shield
Of blood in the haze of a heat twi-
light, you may ride with naught to
break the view between you and the
horizon but wheat-wheat. 1t Is like
the gold fields. 1t goes to your head.
You grow dizzy looking at it. You rub
your eyes. Is it a mirage? The bill
lowing yellow waves seem to be
breasting the very sky. You look up.
The sky Is there all right with the
black mote of a meadow lark sailing
the azure sea. He drops liquid notes
Of sheer mellow music down on your
head, does that meadow lark, and that
gives you back your perspective, your
sense of amazing reality. You are
literally, absolutely, really, in the
midst of a sea Of living gold. 1t is you
and not the lark that is the mote.
You begin to feel as if your special
mote might be a beam that would get
lost in infinity If you stayed there long,
and so you ride on and on, and some
more on, and by and by come out Of
the league long, fenceless fields with
an oGor in your nostrils that isn't eX-
actly like incense-it's too fugitive, too
fine, too sublimal Of earth. 1t is arc
matte, a sort of altar of roses, the i'm
prisoned fragrance Of the billions upon
billions Of wheat flowers shut up in
the glumes Of the heavy headed grain
there. And that's the odor of the
wheat-Agnes c. Laut in Outing Mag
azine.

STEWART Is FRIED ON
CHARGE OF HOMICIDE
Killing of Harris Proved
Self Defense.

Tom Stewart, the negro who gave
Arthur Harris a punctured tire by
shooting him through the heart here
three or four weeks ago, surrendered
himself to Sheriff Bell yesterday and
upon preliminary trial was at once
liberated
A clear case of self-defense was
readily established.
Only one witness was examined,
the negress, Tess Ray, at whose
house the tragedy occurred, and her
statement served to liberate the pris-
oner, Tom Stewart
The woman stated that Harris came
to her home on the night in question
and, finding Stewart a previous guest,
rushed upon him with his hand on his
pocket, threatening to kill him. 1t
was then that Stewards hardware
was brought into full play.
One bullet put Harris to the bad,
and Stewart, who is only a country
negro, took to his heels.
A number of the leading white
farmers of the county came in to
testify as to Stewards excellent char
acter, but the plea of self-defense was
so readily established that only the
testimony of the Ray woman, the only
witness to the killing, was desired
Blalock & Cobb and j A.Hixon,
Esq, represented Stewart, while City

Given 1872 Electoral Votes
to TaftS 29I

NEW YORK, Nov. 4-While the ell
ection of Taft as president by a large
majority of ELECTORAL votes was abb
solutely certain today, the result was
so close in Maryland and West Virgin
ia as to center attention upon those
states
The latest returns during the fore
noon indicated Bryan had carried
West Virginia and Maryland by small
plurality Today's returns showed al
so that Bryan had won over his state
of Nebraska and that state had elect
ed a Democratic governor Although
Taft carried Indiana, Ohio and prob
ably Montana, all three of these states
appear to have elected Democratic
Governors, Judson Harmon apparent
ly winning in Ohio, and Thomas Mar
shall in Indiana
On the other hand, while Bryan car
ried Missouri by a safe margin, the
election of Herbert S. Harley, the Re-
indicated. At II o'clock it was
claimed that the Republicans will con-
troll the next house of representatives.
One of the results SURPRISING the
most sanguine hopes of most Repub-
licans was Taft's carrying the Greater
City of New York by a plurality which
early today with "a out of 1888 dis
tricts missing, footed 9,37S Futher-
more his plurality in New York state
will be approximately 1S9,334, eX-
ceea3ng by nearly $4,000 Roosevelt's

LOOKS LIKE DEMOCRATIC
GOVERNOR FOR OHIO

CINCINNATI, O., Nov. 4.-By not
less than fifty thousand plurality Taft
was given the vote of his native state.
Because of the immense ballot the
counting OF the vote was very slow
But few returns were received before
midnight From the start it was ev-
ident Taft had won A variable count
was that for Governor, which one
time indicated that Harris, Republi-
can, had been elected but when MORN
ing came on Harmon, Democrat, had
clear lead that it did not seem pos
sible to overcome even by the vote
from the rural sections where the
Harris stregth was supposed to be
Harmon's plurality early today seem
ed to exceed ten thousand However
the Republican leaders at that time
still claimed the election of Harris
although no figures were given.
The Democrats gained in the con-
gressional delegation, securing one
of the Cincinnati congressman, al
though Nicholas Longworth, Republi-
can, won his district In the third
district factional fight among the
Republicans aided in the election of
the Democratic candidates. A slow
count delayed the knowledge of the
legislative results, but it is known the
Democrats have made gains
