CLOTHES AND THE MAN.

Good Appearance Waits Upon the Way
Garments Are Worn.
"You a talk all you please about
clothes making a man." said a Walnut
street tailor, but | want to say right
now that the smartest clothes in the
world can't make a man 'natty' If he
is not naturally so. There is an old.

He buys four and sometimes FIVE suits

after he has broken In each new suit.
he looks nice. The trousers bag
at the knees. the coat falls away In
front, and the shoulders begin to look
sloppy. The mans dropping figure
and the poor care he takes of his
clothes furnish, of course, the explana-
ton.
did you ever notice the average
college mans clothes? Almost In
variably he looks lea and correct
despite the easy swing with which he
walks. But you'll notice that he car
ries his head high. his shoulders fairly
erect, and his trousers never break
at the shoes, so that the crease is al
ways preserved. All classes of men
go to college-rich and poor. Few col
lege men take more than fair care of
their clothes. It's all the way they
wear their clothes, l think. Notice the
young lawyers and doctors around
town too. Few of them can afford the

they usually look nice is due to the
fact that they have picked up the dis

WHEN LINCOLN DIED.

By JAMES A. EDCERTON.
Copyright, 1910. by American Press Asso-
c~iation.l
When Lincoln died a universal grief
Went round the earth. Men loved him in
that hour.
The north her leader lost. the south her
friend;
The nation lost its savior, and the slave
Lost his deliverer. the most of all.
Oh, there was sorrow mid the humble
poor
When Lincoln diedl
When Lincoln died a great soul passed
from earth.
A great white soul, as tender as a child
And yet as iron willed as Hercules.
In him were strength and g~entleness so
mixed
That each upheld the other. He pos
sessed
The patient frmness of a loving heart.
In power he out-kinged emperors, and yet
His mercy was as boundless as his power.
And he was jovial. laughter loving; still
His heart was ever torn with suffering.
There was divine compassion in the man,
A godlike love and pity for his race.
The world saw the full measure of that
love
When Lincoln died.
When Lincoln died a type was lost to
men.
The earth has had her conauerors and
kings
And many of the common great. Through
all
She only a one Lincoln. There is none
Like him in all the annals of the past.
He was a growth of our new soil, a child
OF our new time, a symbol OF the race
That freedom breeds; was of the lowest
rank,
And yet he scaled with ease the highest
height.
Mankind one of it's few immortals lost
When Lincoln died.
When Lincoln died 1t seemed a provi-
dence,
For he appeared as one sent for a work
Whom, when that work was done. God
home.
He led a splendid fight for liberty,
And when the shackles fell the land was
saved;
He aid his armor by and sought his rest.
A glory sent from heaven covered him
When Lincoln died.

would increase the House to aSo

But it Is reported from Washing
