Not Prettiness Alone

Prettiness, mere prettiness would not
do. The woman who is to be queen
must have all the myriad qualities
which make California unique in the
world
So the IA representative citizens who
compose the committee sought, puzzled
but enchanted, through thousands of
photographs for the typical beauty.
After weeks of thought they decided
that in Miss Bogues portrait were
presented more of the desired charac-
teristics than might be found in any
of the others
And Miss Bogue herself carries out
personally this impression gained from
the photograph.
The beauty, the strength, the rich
ness of coloring, the magnetic. elusive
charm which California has, are Miss
Bogue's in fullest measure She has
as well the independent spirit which
has seemed a part or California al
ways and she demonstrates this in a
thousand fascinating little ways
Seen yesterday in the tapestry room
of the st. Francis. Miss Bogue proved
that she is as richly lowered with
gifts as is her birthplace, Auburn. in
gold ribbed Placer
AS to her beauty there may be no
two opinions.
Tall--fve feet nine and a quarter
inches to be exact-with a lofty lift
of her head and an imperious gaze
sometimes tragic. sometimes mischiev-e
Gus, she brings to mind pictured Roman
ladies of long ago.
Her coloring is deceptive, for al
though her eyes are gray and her
brown hair is thickly powdered in
gold her long. dark lashes and decided
brows and the peculiar golden tint
underlying the rose of her complexion,
give the impression that she is bru-
nette of the Spanish type.
Her beauty is somewhat over
shadowed, however. upon closer ac-
quaintance by her mental powers and
achievements.

The Middle Horse.

A farmer, blowing with three horses hitched abreast, noticed that the mid de horse became tired and exhausted long before either of its mates. AS the animal was the equal in every way of the other two, he was puzzled as to the cause of its not being able to stand the same amount of work He finally observed, however, that as they drew the blow along the three horses held their noses close toge'h CT, with the result that the middle horse was compelled to breathe the sx- pired air from its fellows The farmer then procured a long jockey" stick, which he fastened with straps to the bits of the outside horses. The device worked perfectly, for, given its right full share of good, fresh air, the m1or ale horse was able to do the same amount of work and with no greater fatigue than its fellows.
 Many persons are like the middle horse-they do not get their rightful share of pure air. And this is why they are not able to perform as much work nor of as good quality as they would otherwise be able to do.-Chi- cago Tribune.

Skinny soys and Chunky Girls.

In referring to a thin boy 1t is all right 10 call him skinny" but you must call thin girl "spirituelle." It means tie same. but sounds better. Never call any one but q boy "puny." A .puny" girl should he called frag. ile." It sounds more like delicate china, and all of that sex like to be compared to fine Dresden. A chunky boy is all right. but a girl has fine ly rounded figure" A boy is "gawky.' but q girl displays 'untutored grace. -AtchiS0n Globe.

Survival of tho Fittest.

Only one oyster embryo out of every 6,OOO,O00 produced grows up through all the successive stages of youth to the adult state. Even in animals which produce small number of young there is great destruction, and, taking all the individuals into consid- eration, only a single pair of young arrive at maturity to replace their par ents. There is no exception to the rule that every organic being naturally multiplies at so high a rate that if not destroyed the progeny of single pair would soon cover the earth. The elephant is reckoned the slowest breed CT of known animals. It commences to breed at thirty years of aga dies at 100 and has six young in the inter val. After 750 years, supposing all the offspring of single pair fulfilled the rule and were not destroyed in an untimely way, there would be nearly 19,O0O,0O0 elephants alive descended from the first pair.-Sir Ray Lankester in London Telegraph.

A Tickiish Moment.

If to act cleverly on the spot is the measure of tact. then the man who figures in the subjoined New York Tribune story deserves both respect and admiration: A woman, driving through New England last summer, noticed suddenly that her horse limped q bit. so when she reached the next village she stopped at the door of the blacksmith shop. A man was holding up the doorpost, and to him she said:
 Will you please tell the blacksmith to come out? want to see him."
 After the manner of the village 1dler, the man did not stir, but smiled sweetly at the woman and, lifting up his voice, called:
 Bill, come out! There's a lady wants to see you"
 From the depths of the blacksmith shop deeper voice roared:
 "Is she young, John, or old?"
 In the words of the old poem, 'she looked at John and John looked at her" Then, still without moving, he answered.:
 You'll be satisfied, Bill, when you get out"

When tho Terror QuaiIed.

He would terrorize the neighbors in a most outrageous way, broke the wide worlds standing records in ath- letics every day, while in pugilistic cir cles he could wipe men in the dust and show master tricks at fencing-laugh at every cut and thrust He slew ti- gers in the jungle and scalped red skins on the plain. He chased lions across the mountains and harpooned upon the main. He could break a bucking broncho-yes, and rope Tex an steer; sling a bowie knife or hatch et throw the boomerang or spear. In hairbreadth escapes be gloried, did this worthy son of Mars, and he'd lick his weight in wildcats-kick them higher than the stars. But his shoes were in his pocket. and his face was ghastly white; he was silent as an oyster when he came in late at night Exchange.

 It Is of MT OBarns the story is told that when on his deathbed, or when he thought he was dying and the doc. tor had pronounced his feet warm and said that no one had ever died with warm feet, the old gentleman inquired in a whisper whether the doctor had forgotten the case of John Rogers.

that otherwise idle money deposited in banks furnishes very large share of the working capital of the coun- try.
 An idle dollar is opportunity going to waste. Every dollar deposited in a HOME bank gives to some one in the community an opportunity to en- large his business or to make needed Improvements in his surroundings :; because bank credit makes that dol lar do the work of seven to ten dol lars.
 Yet the bank stands ready to turn that dollar over to the depositor at any time he wants it.

Tibetan Test of Character.

The Tibetans have some strange tests for ascertaining the character of a man. said Sven Hedin. One is by means of hole in block of granite, through which the individual has to crawl. If he is an honest man he will, according to the theory of the Tibet ans, creep through, but if scoundrel he will stop in the middle.

NaticnsIism In Music.

It Is q curious fact that no great na- tiopa music has ever 9een written among a people living under repub- iicau form of government. The Swiss are, perhaps, the oldest example of q people living permanently under that regime, and there has never been q Swiss composer of any note or of even moderate ability. Against this 1t nSy be urged that the American democ racy s unQues;iona|ly sui geneYis; that nothing like il has ever existed before. and that for this reason, being in q position to make precedent for ourselves we need not necessarily con- slider demo%ra per SC as inimical tC musical development. On the con trary, the very variety of the elements which are now forming the American nation would argue In favor of the possibility of the foundation of a ma tiOnal school of music, which, in unit ing the characteristics of many peo ples, might in time develop into some thing broader and stronger, fresher more vital and more spontaneous thar anything the world has hitherto seen Reginald de Koven in North Ameri can Review.
