saqe's Clear Reasoning Marked Him
as One Well Worthy.

Edward Hagaman Hall, the secre-
tary of the American Science and His
toric Preservation society, was dis
cussing in New York his project to-
ward the transport of Poe's cottage
to Poe park. Mr.. Hall, historian of
great ability, has a happy knack of
pointing his remarks with appropri-
ate anecdotes. And discussing Poe,
he said:
Fame comes at last, comes very,
very late, to this great poet, this mas
ter of the short story And during
the long years Poe was forgotten. his
wrath must have felt like the ancient
sage of whom Plautus-was 1t Plau-
tus ?-tells.
During this sage's life statues were
erected to many philosophers and
rhetoricians less noted and less
learned than himself. A traveller,
passing through the kindom, asked
him why this was. The sage replied:
az prefer to have it asked why |
have no statue, rather than why had
one"

SHOES FOR THE HOT WEATHER.
New Buttoned oxford Will Be Among
the Most Popular.

With lingerie dresses for summer
new buttoned oxford will be worn.
1t is not on the Du Barry order, but
rather on the style of the strapped
slipper, for the boot is slit between the
buttons so that the stocking may show
through. With these, Dame Fashion
says, colored stockings must be worn
to match the gown or belt.
Many street slippers will be fitted
with high French heels, but because
there are some sensible women who
will not consent to go any distance in
such monstrosities, summer shoes may
be obtained with Cuban or military
heels. 1t is predicted that opera slip
pers will be worn on all occasions, and
these will be made in black, white and
pink, or any other shade that might
by any chance be required.

RESPONSIBILITY.

Some one has said truly that respon
sibility walks hand in hand with ca.
pacity and power. Little is expected
of the incapable. The very mention
of duty, task, responsibility weighs
like burden upon the minds of weak
men and women. Every one must
have met men Of good parts who will
sedulously dodge anything like a re-
sponsibility. They shun everything
like responsibility though high re-
wards may be offered The mere
thought OF being held to strict account
ability dismays them, and no remuner-
alton and no honor are great enough
to tempt them to leave the pleasant
ways of peace to undertake course
