or senator, or governor?"
The man suddenly laughed.
"When l was boy at old Stone

have satisfied me. But you may call
me governor, If you like. OF course
there must be bargain. I am going
to call you by the name of a girl /

She was called Emily. think you
are a good deal like her."
1t was merry dinner. There was
enough of everything and a most won
derful variety. The man, whose ap-
petite was a tickle possession, found
himself eating with the gusto and the
relish of boy.
And he liked the laughter, and the
clatter, and the bright faces about
him, and the sunlight among the
leaves, and the blue line of the lake.
And the girl beside him watched
over his plate and saw that he was

with her lively chatter.
But, really, there was little time
for talk. There was so much plate
passing and so many things that
mustn't be missed, and there was
such a feet of little side dishes to
consider, that anything like CONVEX
sation was quite out of the question.
But presently the end of the feast
was thankfully reached, and the man
leaned a little back from the table
with a grateful sigh.

CIeopatra's Code.

Some men are in love with them
selves, and in that at least have no
rival.
According to what the man is, so
must you humor him.
Do not read books alone, but also
men-and chiefly yourself.
Never show your own cards. Let
the other player lead, then follow
suit.
Do not in trying to escape from the
trite become paradoxical.
Try to combine both love and re-
spect.
Let your personality triumph over
your occupation.-New York Herald.

The trouble now is the acquisition Of
the glide. For the glide of the
George Eliot heroine went out of fas-
hlon many years ago and since then
women have minced, galloped. ell
bowed, wiggled, hoped, skipped,
schottished and rolled like q sailor
amidships. But they have not culti-
waited that slow, sinuous, insiduous,l
even stealthy step which was part of
the equipment of the heroine of by
gone fiction. Consequently 1t looks
as though there might be tempest
uous times ahead for the woman who
wants to wear Tanagrenne tunics and
limp trails and all the other hoppy
draperies recommended by the pres
ent modes.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

"Quite satisfied, governor?" the
girl inquired.
"Yes, Emily-too satisfied, if that's
possible. Even the fact that I'm an
interloper doesn't lessen my serenity. "
And then the presiding officer of
| the association arose to call the gath
ering to order and to announce a lit
tie impromptu program. 1t began
| with a song in which almost every
body joined. 1t was an old song, but
| not as old IS the songs the man had
sung when he was a boy at Stone
| wall.
I'm sorry 1 didn't bring my
Golden WREATH" he whispered to
the girl.
I'm sorry, too, governor, she
whispered back. II would like to
hear you sing"
He shook his head at her.
"Great singers always dine spar
ingly before warbling,' he whispered.
I'm afraid l won't be able to sing
| for a week"
She laughed aloud at this and a
half dozen voices warned her that
| she would have to stay after school
for such an infraction of the rules of
good order.
The presiding officer called for re-
marks from various members of the
association, and these remarks were
| all reminiscent and most of them of a
humorous character. And there was
more singing. and somebody read a
half dozen playful verses and then the
chairman looked toward the man be-
side the girl.
"We have with us at this Stonewall
banquet board" he said, IAN unex-
pected guest. If ! am credibly in

old Stonewall. AS a Stonewall boy
he must recognize the fact that he
cannot remain a stranger here, for
he is linked in that impalpable chain
that grapples fast all Stonewall
hearts. In the name of the old
school bid him speak"
The man slowly arose and looked
about him.
"I thank you SIR" he said to the
| presiding officer. II am grateful to
you all for this fine privilege" He
paused and looked about him again
and this time his glance was delib-
crate and searching. II am grateful

REFERS TO SLAVES
IN HOWARD CASE
Attorney for Investment Conn
pany Draws Analogy From
South Carolina

An analogy from the slave trade of
South Carolina was drawn by Attorney
A. E. Shaw yesterday in arguing the
case of Mrs. Emma Shafter Howard to
be declared owner of $4,000 worth of
cattle on the Marin county ranches
placed in trust for her in 1890 by her
husband, Charles Webb Howard, who
was president of the Spring Valley
water company.
The general rule is that where real
property is placed in trust for life, with
remainder to other parties, the increase
of the personal property belongs to
the life tenant" said Shaw. "The only
exception to this rule is found in a
decision of the courts of South Caro-
lima to. the effect that the increase
of slaves belonged to the party owning
the interest in remainder. The purpose
of this modification of the general rule
was, however, one of humanity. Other
wise the children of slaves would have
been forcibly separated from their
parents.
Attorney Charles S. Wheeler, repre-
senting Mrs. Howard, admitted the
general rule was as stated by Shaw.
but claimed that in the present in
stance both Howard and his wife had
by express agreement revoked the rule.
The argument will be completed Fri
day and the case submitted to Judge
Seawell.
