the diplomatic and consular appoint
ments Of his administration, probably,
than any of his predecessors. His Sc
lections for those places have been al
most entirely free from politics. No
personal favorites have been rewarded
and there has been very little political
consideration in naming men for those
much desired places. There was some
cutlery a few weeks ago when about a
score of transfers of consuls was an
nounced 1t was promptly recognized
in Washington that there were good
and sufficient reasons for these con-
sular transfers and promotions and that
this important service had been bene-
flied thereby.
Very few new men have been des-
ignated as ministers and ambassadors,
although heretofore Presidents have
regarded it as their right to bestow
those places upon their personal friends
and supporters. The European prae-
tice of transferring and promoting cap
able diplomats has been followed to
an unusual degree, particular in
stances being the transfer of ". W.
Rockhill, minister at Picking, TO St.
Petersburg, and the transfer of J. @.
A. Leishman from ConstantinoplA TO
Rome. Ambassador Rockhill has had
no part in American politics for many
years and has never, in any sense,
been politician.

many branches, is now so large that
deaths and the expiration of terms
make a big crop of vacancies every
year before the assembling of a Con-
gress in regular session. There will
be federal judges, district attorneys,
collectors of customs and of internal
revenue and a considerable list of
other officials to name. Some of
these places are necessarily more or
less political. The filing of them will
affect politics in many states.
To date, the President has been en-
proiled but little in the fractional pol
itics of different localities. He has
had tussle or two over minor Offices
in his home state of Ohio, hut he has
had no big battles such as Roosevelt
had over places in New York or as
other Presidents have been unable TO
avoid These troubles are ahead OF
him. His friends have no expectation
that he can escape. They will loom
large next winter and he viii have
TO choose not only between men, who
want Office, but between political fac
tons they represent.
However, the President has proceed
ed thus far so satisfactorily to all con
cerned in the distribution of patronage
that he has laid an excellent founda-
ton of political amitv and good will

No Suffering Too Great.

Not long since, youGs woman,
suffering with an incurable disease,
applied for admission 10 a hospital
in a Southern city.
I know l must die" she said
simply to the attendant physician,
but do something to keep me alive
Tor a little while for my babies
sake. In a few years they will not
need me so much"
Her one chance lay in a very
painful opera ton, but her heart
was so weak that the surgeon dared
not administer an aueStheUlc. Very
gently he explained the situation
the operation would make but a
years difference at most; it seemed
hardly worth while to suffer SO
much for so brief a respite; she
would best go home and wait, but
the little woman shook her head.
With mother-love shining in her
eyes, she allowed herself TO be
strapped upon the operating table
and there willingly underwent the
torture of the knife that gave her a
few months to devote to her prec-
iouS babieS.-The March Delineator.

You Can Find No Better Country Than We Have Here

This result was not brought
about, however, until alter the
house, by a vote of 1873 noes to 179
ayes, had refused to susperd the
rules in order that the measure
might be adopted. A twC-thirds
affirmative vote is required to sus-
pend the rules, and while those in
favor of removing Mr.. KnoX'S disa-
bility outnumbered their opponents
by Sc, they still lacked % votes of
the necessary twO-thirds.

senate bill removing the Constitu-
tional bar to Senator Knox serving

Lent Will Begin February oath.

Lent Will Begin February Gath.
Only ten days away is the Lenten
season, consequently many things
promise to be doing in society towns
before that time.
Lent will begin on February Gath
this year, which is eight days earli-
er than it was last year.
Easter Sunday will also come
earlier, being on April II, while
last year it was on April 19.
The Lenten season is observed
especially by EpiscopalianS and
Catholics, but many people outside
of these two churches also observe
it.
In the Catholic church no we'd
dings are allowed, and going to the
atres and other places of amuSe-
ment is forbidden. EX.
Hints on Being Well Dressed.
The smartest colorS for the early
Spring will be taupe, mole, smoke,
vapor gray, sulphur old gold, hello
trope, cinnamon brown, jade and
the cashmere colorS. Navy blue
and black are always good and al
ways popular.
Sleeves should be made without
lining; the present styles demand
that the sleeves shall be as small
as possible, so the general tendency
is to dispense with Innings wherever
it is possible to do so.
Net the color of the dress mater
ials an extremely smart trimming
at present for yokes and sleeves. 1t
can be used either plain or tucked.
Its popularity for waists has not at
all diminished.
Procrastination is the worst OF
faults in dress. 1t is the instinct
of the good dress maker and the
well-dreSsed woman to be ever on
the alert for something new. Don't
be trailer" in adopting new fash.
