From the standpoint. of the French rulers, the moment seemed auspicious for F1 ance to interfere in American affairs. 'The '.-cst.-.l;lis'hment of a great Latin empire, HOSTETTER’S w; 12'; $23..

But however clev- er he may be, the man who, anxious to appear or even to be great, forces fate and creates impossible situations that he may act a leading part before the morld, is only a schemer. This is the key to the character of ‘Napoleon III. and to his failures. He looked far away and dreamed of universal achievements, when at home, at his very door, were the threatening issues he should have mastered. The story is told of him that one evening, at the Tuileries, when the imperial party were playing games, chance brought to the Emperor the Question, “What is your favorite occupation?” to which he answered, “To seek the solution'of un- solvable problems.” It is also related that in his younger days a favorite ax- iom of his was: Follow the ideas of your time, they carry you along; strug- gle against them, they overcome you; precede them, they support you.” True enough; but only on condition that you will‘not mistake the shrill chorus of a few interested courtiers and specula- tors for the voice of your time, ner im- agine that you precede your generation because you stand alone. He dreamed of far-away glory, and his flatterers told him his dreams were prophetic.— Cornelius Stevenson in Century. WAX FIGURES FOR SHOW WINDOWS. A Knowledge of Anatomy, Drawing and ' .‘Modellng Required to Make Them. “How. long does it take to make one of these?” said the manufacturer in response team inquiry. “Well, it de- pends entirely upon circumstances. It is not a mechanical operation, the fins .ishing off of a wax model as true to life as this,” and he pointed to the bust of a laughing child whose rosy neckand bright eyes were framed by clustering curls. “To make these one mus-t have studied anatomy, as well as drawing and modeling. We begin in the same way as a sculptor would to make a statue. After the wax has cooled, the eyes are put in, the face is ‘made up’ as theatrical folks say, and the wig is fastened on, and the wooden body is shaped. We make all our hands and feet from life, and they cost about $10. If we have an order for an entire figure, we always model it°from life. The life-size wax figures of in- fants are among the finest things we manufacture, and they add much to the attractiveness of a show window, as was illustrated last winter, when a Washington street retail dealer dis- played one during the holiday season. The head and shoulders, such as are. seen in the milliner’s windows, cost from $40 to $4.5 The wig makes con- s1de1 able difference in the price, as we use the best hair, and it is expensive, especially the natural blond, which is scarce. The children's heads cost $20, or thereabout. ' “All the finishing off imaginable ” he continued, “would not make a figure stand the test of a season behind the glare of‘a glass unless the wax has a natural pink tinge. The reason some of the models look so deathly is be- cause the wax is bad and not properly colored. We use beeswax, slightly colored, and flesh tints areput on in addition.”-—Boston Transcript. WOMEN IN BUSINESS. Nu Alarm Need be Felt as to Their En- cronch ment. on Men’s Work, Hon. Carroll D. Wright, in his arti- cle in the Chautauquan, “Are Women Hurting the Chances of Men in Busi- ness?” makes the following asser- tions: “The fact is absolutely demonstrated , that the proportion of females in all occupations followed is gradually in- creasing, and that women are to some extent entering places at the expense. A closer study, of all of the males. the facts, however. shows that while the statement just made is true, wO~ men are more generallytaking the places of children; Through the in- fluence of a higher intelligence and the action of law, the number7of chil- dren employed in manufactures is constantly decreasing.

Henry von Poschinger, who has pub- Lishcd ten or twelve volumes regarding Prince Bismarck’s political career, has written a magazine article containing several new Bismarck stories. As new Bismarck stories are rare pieces of lit- erature nowadays, it may be worth while to relate one or two of them. Told in Ponscliin-ger's language they are: . “In 1877, when liismarck’s favorite dog, Sultan, ,__ wasdying, . the Chancellor watched over the poor creature with such keen distress that Count Herbert at last interferied and sought to lead. his father away. The Prince took a few steps toward the door. Then, as he turned, he met the eyes of his old friend. "‘No, no; leave me alone,’ be ex- claimed, as -he went back to Sultan. When the dog‘was dead, he looked up at a. friend near by and said: “’Our old German ancestors had a beautiful religious belief. They be- lieved that after death they would meet in the heavenly hunting grounds all the good dogs which were t1 eir com- panions in life. I only wish I could believe the same.’ “In 1851—a year still in the shadow of the revolution—when the tide of po- litical passion was still running very high, Bismarck entered a restaurant. one day to get a glassof beer. A man who sat near him, and evidently was inspired'by the admiration of several friends, began to abuse 3. member of the royal family. Bismarck looked at him coldly, and then said: “ ‘If you do not leave the room be- fore I finish this beer I will break the glass over your head,” The man did not go. Bismarck emp- tied his glass slowly, sip by sip. Ho arose, walked deliberately over to the man who had spoken insultingly of the royal family, and smashed the glass on his head. The man fell howling to :he floor. Bismarck turned to the wait- er and asked what the glass cost, paid the bill, and walked slowly to the street. Yet at this time he was a man of political position and the recognized leader of the Conservative party. True to his principles, however, he took the offensive, attacking his opponent with the first weapon that came to hand." ALUMINUM MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS \Iandnlins and Guitars, Banjos and Violins ‘ Blade Out of the White Metal. Various musical instruments are made of aluminum, including mando- lins, guitars, banjos; and violins, and drums. The advantages claimed are resistance to climatic influences and superiority of tone. Some of the man- dolins are made with the body, includ- ing the top, entirely of aluminum, oth» ers with the top of spruce, the neck of wood, and the other fittings of the usu- al kind. Such a mandolin is sold at from $25 to $200. The prices of all 11111111111111 mandolins range somewhat ' lower. Guitars with a spruce tOp and the back and sides of aluminum in a single piece are sold at from $25 to $200. Ban— ios are made With aluminum 1ims,fit- ted with beads of the usual kind, and they are also made with aluminum heads. Such a banjo, with wire strings could be played in the rain. The aluminum violin that is now up- on the market is, in its body, all alu- minum, while the neck and other fit- tings are of wood. All the aluminum lnstruments are handsome, and the aluminum violin, with its silver-gray“ body, and finger-board and tail-piece of ebony, is of great beauty. It is a cost: ly instrument. The makers of the aluminum mandolins and guitars with spruce tops are now engaged upon a violin whose back and sides will be of aluminum in a single piece, the top of the instrument to be of spruce. —New York Sun.

With death Walking the deck by his love you,” but there are exceptions to abled with fever, through seven weeks every rule. Some years ago Iwas stationed at Devenport, says a writer in Cossell’s Journal. A friend of mine (whom I will call Bates) owned a handsome re- . triever dog. The animal received more kicks than caresses from his master and I was continually remonstrating with my friend on his cruelty to' the. dog; but his only answer to my en. treaties to be kind to the animal was" the usual one, “the more you kick him the more he will love you.” I was very kind to the dog, and my kindness was well rewarded, as the se quel will show. One afternoon Bates and I engaged a boat for a row. Bates tried all he knew how to prevent his dog getting into the boat, but I eventually prevail- ed upon him to let the dog accompany us. On the return journey a fog came on and a passing steamer swamped us, with the result that our boat upset, and we were struggling in the water. We could not swim, and the steamer’s crew could not see us, although they could hear our cries for help. As I was sinking the dog grabbed me and pulled me to the upturned boat; but I could not get him to save his master, who was drowned. When They Used to Tip the Cook. In old times to dine with a noble- man cost more \ in tips to the servants than a. club dinner. James Payn relates _ that. Lord Poor, a. well-named Irish peer, .excused himself from dining with. the Duke oi Ormond upon the ground that he could not afford it. “If you will give me the guinea. I have to pay your.cook (fan- cy!) I will come as often as you choose to ask me,” which was accordingly done. The duke, however, had not the pluck to stop the practice. Lord ,Taafe a general officer in the Austrian ser- vice, did what he 'could. He always attended his guests to the door; when they put their hands into their pockets he said: “No, if you do give it, give it to me, for it was I who paid for your dinner.” To Sir Timothy Waldo must be given the credit of putting an end to the monstrous practice. After din- ner with the Duke of Newcastle he put a crown into the cook’s hand—it was rejected. “I do not take silver, sir.” "Very good; and I do not give gold.” This courageous rejoinder “caught on," and the day of vails to cooks was over. —Argonaut. They Were Sensitive. The sensitiveness of the families of distinguished men as to the early oc’cu- nations of their ancestors is somewhat remarkable. Recently an author was asked to write a brief history of the life of a man who had done some ser- vice to his state. Like Lincoln, this man had been a woodchopper—a fact to which his historian gave promi- hence. “Don’t say he was a ‘woodchopper, said the spokesman of the family. “That will never do.” _ “What shall I say, then?" asked the author. “Say—let me see now—just say that he was connected with the lumber bus- iness! ”é-Atlanta Constitution. ’7, ’ PERSONAL NOTES. mWilham B.

His wish was carried out by his doctor. It is almost impossible to go out of doors in Christiania without meeting ' Ibsen. The daily habit of this author is to go to the Grand Hotel, where he 'sits and smokes and reads and sips a “little glass" by the hour. The family of Bismarck shows no signs of dying out.

Claus Spreckles has bought a large tract of land in Monterey county, Cal., and leased it to the Salvation Army for the purpose of sugar beet culture, advancing money until the heel: grow- ers become self-supporting. Where they begin to make money they are to be encouraged to buy ten acres of ground apiece, on ten years’ time, by installments. Mr. Spreckles agrees to '- buy their beets at good prices. According to the Kansas City Jour- nal, this is how Mrs. Lease went into‘ politics: In 1890 the Farmers’ Alliance sprang into existence and Mrs. Lease wanted her husband to join the move- ment and become a politician. But he declared'that he" was not of the stuff of which politicians are made, and suggested that she go into, it herself and leave him' in peace. “Mrs. Lease had never thought of entering politics, ' but she consented to 'try it. How, when and where to get the first speech ' off was the puzzle. Finally a neigh- bor, Dixon, was taken into the deal, and he arranged it so that Mrs. Lease "could appear before the next. Farmers’ Alliance county convention and make a . talk. She was there on the appointed day, and as ‘soon as her name was men- tioned she rose and made a bee-line to the stage. Her maiden: speech. they say, was a stem- winder.

But scarcely had the ship,weigh- ed anchor, when he, too, was stricken, together with several other able bodied members of the crew. The ship car- penter next succumbed to the fever,_ and on the same day, Officer Roberts leaped overboard in delirium. The entire charge of the ship thereupon de- valved upon Shotton. Luckily for all concerned, he was born of a race of sailors and had received someinstruc- :ion in navigation.

HOW LEAD PENCILS ARE MADE. do Lead Used in Their Manufacture, but the Name Clings to Them.

He was pursued, but found protection in that country, where the people who be— friended him urged him to give a spe- cimen of his newly found skill. The poor fellow had,‘however, been grossly imposed upon, and the secret from which he had hoped so much proved valueless. He still believed in the possibility of making gold, and worked at the matter incessantly: It so happened that having mixed a nume ber of different kinds of earth togeth- er for the purpose of making durable crucibles, in the course of baking them he accidentally stumbled uponrthe art of making porcelain, and suddenly found himself transformed from a. . poor alchemist into a prosperous pot-~ ter.
