WRITER OF FAIRY STORIES.

Let us admit, II we can do so with
out rufiiing the feathers Of the Ameri-
can eagle, that there are some things
other nations do better than we.
France, for instance, has childlike
heart. along with the more mature
qualities which make for the ascend
ancy of that country in thrift. In SCI
ence and In many fields where hard
heads count for so much. And In this
youthfulness. this simplicity. 1t Is very
fond of the fairy tale. Here we are
growing so practical. so sordid, SO un'
imaginative. save in our big business
transactions which sometimes take
away the breath In their utopian sweep
and immensely. that we look upon the
fairy story not only as useless waste
Of time. but even worse. says Cleve-
land Leader. 1t makes children dream
srs when they should be focusing their
minds O.: money. And so the army OF
Gradgrinds grows all the time and
lights the poor little remnant OF ina
gination left US as bitterly as If 1t
were a terrible foe. But in France
there is a vast army of readers of fairy
stories and admirers of those who
write them, and only the other day
"All Paris"-that is to say, its wealth,
Its art, its society, along with the basic
everyday people-turned out to pay
tribute to woman whose only claim
10 recognition was authorship Of
charming fairy tales for real children
and the grownups who still have their
youth In their souls.

Witticism that Blaine Stole

DO you think So? asked Mr.. Blaine

the great prophet of the Mormon

Famous Statesman Afterward Gave
Credit for the Bright Remark to
His Relative, Gail Hamilton,
Well Known Writer.

I'm all my experience when in Wash
mgton and In other public life never
met SO cordial and companionable
man as James G. Blaine" said the ven
cradle Smith Ely. who was mayor Of
New York city in 1878. Mr.. Ely was
. member Of congress In the seventies,
and at that time made the acquaint-
ance Of Mr.. Blaine. then also of the
house Of representatives. They were
Of opposing political parties. but their
difference of political view seemed all
the more strongly to maintain the per-
sonal friendship which came to be en-
tablished between them.
Mr.. Blaine was one of the most
fascinating of men at an informal or
quiet dinner party" Mr.. Ely went on
to tell me. And yet he was SO con-
siderate Of others, and SO completely
lacking in dominating self-assertion,
that this gift of charming all who were
with him was greatly intensified.
Il remember that one summer,
when Mr.. Blaine was speaker OF the
house. he spent few weeks at Sara
toga Springs. There, too. Samuel 8.
Cox, better known as Sunset Cox, a
member of congress and q close per-
sonal friend of Mr.. Blaine's, was stop
ping, and he invited Mr.. Blaine to be
his guest of honor at dinner party at
a hotel at Saratoga Lake. Mr.. Blaine
accepted; l was fortunate enough to
be numbered among the guests, and
must say that l never saw Mr.. Blaine
more fascinating that he was at that
small gathering. Every guest felt the
magnetic charm Of his graciousness,
personality and intellect.
1T was towards the end of the din
ner chat Mr.. Blaine made his hit of the
evening. For some time he had been
engaged in an animated dialogue with
q Mrs. Grannfss, very brilliant lady.
whose husband was also present, and
in the course of their talk Mr.. Blaine
happened to refer to q member Of con-
gress. considerably past the scriptural
three score years and ten, who had re-
Gently married his fourth wife. This
fact Mr.. Blaine told after revealing
something about the mans public
career.
''Thereupon, Mrs. Granniss. half In
earnest and half in jest. with . conf
cally feminine protest In the tone Of
her voice. exclaimed: Why, Mr.. Blaine.

many years. was probably the most
intimate friend that William H. Van

to philanthropic and educational pur-

life were devoted in large part to dis
pensing money for the good of hts
fellow men and the furtherance Of

But, liberal though he was In most
ways. there was One thing in connec-
ton with the money in which he
showed he was human-he hated the
