YOUR PERSONALITY.

Now. II all this were true. II would be

false. We know that among normal men

cannot change, nor can we modify II in
any way. 1t is stronger than We are and
our puny will avails nothing against It
1t laughts at reason and sets mere worldly
expediency at naught.
1t is this deep seated something in the
mental and moral fibre OF our being which
regulates and controls the sex affairs x
both men and women. II you are very
scientific you can call this natural selec-
ton: II you are a sentimentalist you may
characterize 1t as fate, or explain It away

GREECE HAD THE RECALL.
Only In the Old Days the System Was
Called "Ostracisr.y

In the palmy days Of the Greek re-
publics, many centuries ago, as histo-
rians tell US, when a man rose to
such height of power or affiuence
that he became a possible menace to
the state, the citizens took a vote on
his case as an undesirable" This
was sent to the senate, and, IL the
sentative, that body passed a resolu-
ton in which the too distinguished cit
izen was invited, in polite diplomatic
terms, to take a few years Of retire
ment abroad-in other words, he was
officially exiled for the good Of the
state.
This was "ostracism," so called from
the fact, 1t is explained, that the vot-
ing citizens wrote their names on oys-
ter shells, and 1t was instituted as a
measure Of security to the common
wealth. Any citizen Of great wealth
or influence or who had a large per-
sonal following which might, In an
emergency, be used to the detriment
of the state was liable to receive this
distinguished mark Of public consid-
Grafton. 1t was a kind Of primitive
recall" which had the advantage Of
being equally applicable to Tins" and
"outs."
Those early Greeks were wonderful
fellows, who knew how to deal with
knotty problems Of their day, which
doubtless included grating and other
human peculiarities not unknown In
our own time. If an election did not
suit them or II any man swelled too
far above his fellows there was al
ways the leveling oyster as a whole

at point where the levee juts out into

from the Grand Isle railroad tracks, but
remote from any residences.
A new levee 900 feet long will have
to be constructed, and to procure a
solid foundation for it the levee board
will be compelled to go behind the
Grand Isle tracks, and the railway COM

ANALYZE LOVE AFFAIRS.

In other words. a mans wife is his des-
tiny, a woman's husband is her fate And
this. not in any sentimental meaning. but
epon strictly scientific grounds. Whether
a man marries at eighteen or at fifty
eight, the woman he selects is essentially
sixteen or sixty. the man OF her choice
is essentially the same.
To prove this one has only to take a
survey of ones own circle OF acquaint-
ances. Let US begin. for instance. with

women In your particular set Think

advocates OF late marriage Is that the
parties to It thus eliminate the possibility
OF growing away from each other" as
the phrase has It They assume that when
a person has reached the age OF twenty
five. or thirty-five. or forty-five. his char
acter has crystallized. his Imagination
ceased to work. his temperament become
null and void. They assume that the
woman whom a man OF thirty selects for
his wife is essentially different from her
whom he would choose at twenty. and.
conversely. that a woman's taste at
twenty is different and necessarily in
ferior to what 1t will be at thirty.

WAGNER AND THE CABBY.
A Bit Of Comedy That Won a Good Tip
From the Composer.

A story of Wagner known to very
few is brought to the light by the Vos-
sische Zeitung. When the composer
was in a really merry mood, the right
mood for story telling, he used to say
that, being in Berlin on very hot
summers day and finding himself in
the DOnhoffsplatz, he summoned one
Of the first class droshkies that were
still fairly numerous at that time and
told the driver where to go. His des-
tination was at the very farthest point
OF a district within which only the
lowest fare could be demanded.
1t struck Wagner Immediately that
his driver was taking very affecting
leave Of one OF his fellows, as though
he were starting on a life or death
journey. "GOodby, William" he said;
1--WE shan't see each other again for
a long time"
After the carriage had ratified on for
a good while it came suddenly to a
standstill The driver got down from
his box on the right hand side, opened
the carriage door and banged it to
again; then he went round TO the left
side and repeated the performance.
climbed up on to his box and resumed
the journey. At the end Of the drive
Wagner asked him what this dumb
crambo show meant. The driver, with
a sly look, made answer: II just want
ed to bamboozle my old nag. He would
never have believed that the whole
drive was for minimum fare and
would have refused to go on. But by
banging the doors got him to imagine
that one fare had got out and another
got in"
Wagner laughed heartily over this
explanation, and the driver. in spite OF
his greed, over which the composer
made very merry in his letters. real
lied the handsome tip on which he had
been peculating.-London Standard.
