President McKinley's Sweetness Of
Spirit

The quality that overcame those
who dealt with Mckinley was his
sweetness. The old sto1 ! of the late
speaker, Tom Reed, has probably
been heard by many. Somebody,
speaking of a prominent man, said:
Il wish could say whas l heard
him say, that in all the thirty years
of his married life he never uttered
one impatient word to his wife,
"Why don't you say it? The other
did," Reed drolly qut led.
Now, ordinarily, when a man says
that sort of thing some doubt arises
in the minds of his bearers, because
there are times IN the lives Of most
of us when we say things that we
would be glad to have wiped out,aD d
the good women who permit US to
live with them know it. This was
literally true o. William Mckinley,
and the eulogiums pronounced upon
him can be verified by everyone who
knew President Mckinley in bis
home life, or came in contact with
him. Mr. Carnegie has said he never
heard an impatient word FROM his
lips and never knew him to be an
cry. l knew him pretty well and |
never knew him to be angry but once
and that was when someone threat
aned that if a certain thing which
Mckinley did not think right to do,
in reference to his policy in tie
Philippines, was left undone, it
would lose him his nomination for
secoLd term. - William Howard

tells of the troubles of an esteemed
contemporary:
"The editor of The Fayette Adver-
tiser is Dragging this week about his
new gasoline engine. He'll never
brag again, for he's had that engine
a week now, and if you've noticed, no
one ever brags on gasoline engine
but once. Of all machines ever in
vented for mans undoing, this same
gasoline abnormity takes the lead. 1t
is as cantankerous as a donkey, as
obstreperous as a pig, as stubborn as
a setting hen and as perverse as a
woman!'

A Deseryedly Successful Magazine,

Lippincott's for March is as fresh
and vigorous as the months bracing
winds. More than halfits substantial
bulk is given up to the complete
uove!-"A knight Erraut in Broad.
way" by Rupert Sargent Holland,
whose book, "The Count at Har-
ward" was we'll received couple of
wears ago. MIR Holland takes as his
theme the career of a rather COM
monplace and not particularly scru.
pulous young man who comes to
New York from a small country
town to seek his fortune. He finds
'sTenderloin" life fascinating,a land as
ne is in the employ of rascally law
yer, he is rapidly succumbiug TO the
evil influences which surround him
when a young girl comes into his
life-,a young girl who is sweet and
pure. Somehow his old associates
begin to seem tawdry to him, his
better nature asserts itself. and in
the end he proves his manhood and
his entire worthiness to wed the
charming Rhoda The transactions
of the crooked lawyer and the still
more crooked "promoter" throw an
interesting side-light on one phase Of
life IN the modern Gotham. Despite
the vigilance of the postoffice au-
thorities, it is safe to say that there
are still numerous enterprises as du-
bious as the "National Non. Refill
able Bottle Company" and there
probably always will be so long as
there are people gullible enough to
put their money .1to get-rich.quick
schemes about which thsy have no
authoritative information.

or wrong. All is fair; he who gets
