LIKE UNTO OTHER CAUCUSES. Fashion Set by Hannibal Hamlin Not infrequently Followed. The old saw says that “politics makes strange bedfellows,” and it is likewise a fact that the professional politician is frequently moved by the ‘/exigencies of the case,” to acts that will not stand close scrutiny. Not alone is this so in the present day, but it was so “in the days of the fathers.” When Hannibal Hamlin first . began his political career he was once at a caucus in Hampden, the only attendant besides himself being a citi zeh of very tall stature and ponderous b’uild. Mr. Hamlin had some resolutions to pass which by repre senting that they were presented to a “large and respectable” gathering of voters, and he proceeded to read and “vote” them onto the records of the caucus. . “Hold on!” cried the other man. “We can’t pass that, for it ain’t true.” “What isn't true?” demanded <he wily Hamlin. “It ain’t a large and respectable Caucus,” objected the other member of the assembly. “There’s only two 1 of us.” “That’s all right, brother, that’s all right,” assured Hamlin. “It goes as read. Just you keep still. This ®is a large and respectable caucus, all right. You’re large and I am respectable.” And the resolution “passed” without 1 ■further demur. PECULIAR STATUES OF KINGS. Rulers of Dahome Represented in Guise of Beasts. ' In Man Prof. J. G. Frazer discusses three remarkable statues of kings of Dahome now deposited in the Trocadero museum. The figures are symbolbolical, eacit king being represented dn the. guise of an animal. Thus, Guezo, 1 who reigned from T&18 to 1858,-and 1 was known as “the cock,” is represent- 1 ed by a man covered with feathers; Guelele (1858-89), “the lion,” as a lion 1 rampant; Behanzin, his successor, who 1 was finally deposed by the French, known as “the shark,” appears as a dogfish graced with the arms and sup- 1 ported by human legs. • The “feathers” which once coyered the statue of Guezo are nothing but metal plates, nails, gimlets and scraps, of old iron. Prot'i Frazer observes that the existence of these statues seems to prove that certain kings of Dahome habit- 1 ually posed 4 as certain- fierce animals or as birds! They possibly Intended by this means to serve some magical purpose. At any rate, they cannot be totems hereditary in the male line, since -they differed in three successive generations traced from father to son. Superiority to All Law. There is something servile in the habit of seeking after a law, which we may obey. 'We may study laws of matter at and for our convenience, but a successful life; knows no law. It’ is an unfortunate discovery certainly, that c! a law. which binds us .inhere we :Ll not know before we were bound. Live Tree, child of the mist—and with, respect to knowledge we are all children es the mist.’ The man yv ho. takes -the i!>; fly to live is superior to all the laws, by. virtue of his. relation ■to the lawmaker. “That, is active duty,” says the Vishnu Pufana, “which is no.t. for our bondage; that is knowledge which is for our liberation; all other duty is good only unto weariness; all other know,ledge, is'only the cleverness, of. an artist.’h—Henry D. Thoreau. Attitude in Face of Death. A.British medical man thus tells his experience of how men and women face death: Tell the man of higher type and greater intelligence, he says, that' he is facing death, and he begins to fight, demands a consultation, talks about going to specialists and fights grimly to the finish. Tell a woman the same, facts, and she lies back to await her fate. All women are fatalists. On the other hand tell a man that he has one chance in a thousand to recover if he will/undergo an operation, and he will trust to his own strength and endurance rather than undergo the knife. The woman will choose the thousandth chance, and submit to the operation with astounding calmness. ■ Feeding. People, When a woman wishes to entertain guests at dinner sets everything | movable in the house out on the front ' porch. She drags out the rugs and hires a boy to beat them. She lias the woodwork painted and the walls papered, she sweeps, scrubs, washes the windows, dusts, dees up the lace curtains, changes- the bods, oils the floors bnd 'the furniture, bakes, boils, roasts and stews for three days. When, the u truer comes off her head aches so hard that she can’t see across the table. When a man wants to feed people he takes them to a restaurant—Newark (N. J.) News. Good Soy, Naughty Servant. She had become engaged for the first time on the previous evening, and love’s young dream wrapped itself around her soul with the thickness of an eiderdown quilt. Put she was bashful, and blushed and started like a trembling fawn whenever the name of her lover was mentioned. .At last her little bother spoke. “I wanted so much to peep through the keyhole last night while you were in the parlor with Mr. Flipflop.” . “But like a good little boy you didn’t, did you?” •’No; the-servant got there first!”— borne Chat. ~ -' - ,

BEETLE AS A SCENT SACHET. Insect "of Borneo That Exhales Most Powerful Perfume. The beaux and belles of Borneo do not have to distjl perfume for their hair or handkerchiefs. They have only to take a walk until they find a mimosa in blossom. Clinging to the flower-balls is found a magnificent beetle of brilliant emerald green shading to a bright bronze on the wingcases, and touched with gold on the head. This living jewel emits a powerful 'scent of attar of roses, perfuming the air for many yards around it. A number of them placed in a house will fill it from top to bottom with delight-; ful fragrance. Young girls roll the. insect in a bit of cotton cloth and braid it in their black locks, and young men suspend it around their necks like an amulet or an Egyptian scarab. The fragrance gradually grows fainter as the beetle loses its vitality, and dies with it. . The beetle lives in captivity only a few hours, and as the scent expires with it, no way has so far been found to extract or preserve the exquisite odor. The scented beetle appears only When the mimosa is in flower. Neither birds nor lizards will destroy it, and it is protected even from the vora-. cious woodpecker by its powerful perfume. c C— - CHARITY 'OF LItTLE SERVICE. New York Health Commissioner Makes Moral of Incident "If charity,” said Health Commissioner Darlington of New York, “were really as fine and * serviceable as we incline to think it is, disease would almost disapear.” He shook his head and smiled. “Too much of our charity,” he said, "resembles that of Norwalk woman. A tramp, on a gray and freezing, day, presented himself at her back door. A “‘Madam,’ he said, ‘my feet are nearly froze.’ He pointed to his shoes, a tangle of string and strips of leather and holes through which his bare feet showed. ‘Haye you got an old . pair of boots you could give me, madam “The woman, after rummaging her closet, returned to the tramp and said feelingly: “ 'Poor fellow, I know you must suffer terribly without shoes this bitter weather. I have none to fit you, but here, is a pair of my late husband’s skates you can have.’ ” Big Wages Must Be Earned. A .group of feminine wage earners was discussing a news item the other day, one -which told the public that the private secretary of the greatest- financier of his time is a woman who receives $20,000 a year. There was envy in their voices and bitterness in their words, and nobody seemed to grasp the pith of the story, which was a recital of the secretary’s duties. There was a woman who had to be on duty many hours, and possess not onjy a marvelous memory, but infinite tact ind patience. More than that she had to possess marked executive ability. She has probably been in training tor years, and undoubtedly earns ;very penny of het salary. The girls who envied her could not do the work, because they were not fitted for it — probably they would not under any circumstances, because they were not :he hardworking kind. All they could see in the story was the salary, and that made them envious. ?- A Gladstone Bull. Mr. Gladstone was once guilty of an amusing bull in a debate on the question of disestablishment. Dilating on the hold held on the affection of the people by the Church of England, he said: - . “When an Englishman wants to get married, to whom does he go?' To the parish priest. When he wants his child baptized, to whom does he go? To the parish priest. When he wants to get buried, to whom does he go?” The house answered with a roar jf laughter, in which Mr. Gladstone himself joined, adding: “As I was contrasting the English church with the Irish, a bull is perhaps excusable.”Bruin Too Fond of Crow. A new version of “eating crow” has been furnished in Center county, Pennsylvania. • One evening recently a farmer of Curtin, township set a bear trap near his home, baiting it with a piece of meat, as is customary, After the trap had been set a crow, tempted by the meat; was caught, and thalt night a bear happened that way and ate both the crow and the bait. The farmer set the trap again next evening, and on the following morning the bear was in -the trap, having come back during the night for another meal of crow. A Monster Loaf. Bakers in Germany are foird of making odd experiments, the following being reported from Duisburg in Westphalia. At- a children’s party recently held in that town there was exhibited and afterward cut up and distributed among the youngsters present, a twist which for size at least has surely rarely been equaled. .Weighing no less than 180 pounds, it had a breadth of 1.70 meters and a length of 3.20 meters, and was thus found sufficient to supply a satisfactory . afternoon collation to as many as 500 boys and girls.—Bakers Weekly. ES’ISSSS A Perfect Cinch. “My suit case is still intact, but badly scratched.” “That’s the most easily remedied thing I know. Paste a lot of labels over the scratches.” . » „ ...
