{ ‘RDINAL AND REPORTER Many instances gré rel ited of Cardi al Gibbons’ broad 1 a8 his tact and diplomacy in avoiding re OUS disk USSiler) \ person Whose views are opposed ww his own.

Upon one occasion, so the story runs, in Baltimore a young journalist was sent his local interest. Wh

by his chief to intervievw eminence upon a topie ‘n the inte the cardinal and his caller had a friendly chat upon & variety of including

subjects, the

church. The journalist was a Protest- ant, and in the argument that followed he became excited and expressed him- of view. | U} ; his office he reflect- ed upon the outcome of his visit and came to the conclusion that he stood a

fair chance of being discharged should the cardinal repeat the conversation to

; ie . i his ed Lor,

The next day his eminence dropped into the newspaper office in question and asked to see the proprietor, who was his personal friend. The reporter was told of the call and quaked in bis boots. The publisher and the cardinal discussed a matter of mutual interest to them, and before leaving his emi- nence said:

“By the way, you sent a young man to see me yesterday, and I was rather impressed with him. He appears to have the courage of his convictions. It would please me if you could do some- thing better for him.” Within a month the reporter who had anticipated dis- missal

received a gratifying promo- tion.—Raleigh Colston Smith in New

York Times.

Dewey’s Foresight.

“The battle of Manila was won in Hongkong harbor,” said Admiral Dew- ey to me when I first saw bim in May, 1898, and heard him describe the great fight. Many times since then | heard him repeat the same sentiment, and the more the truth of it is considered the more light it sheds on bis charae- ter. While he was brave, prompt and decisive in action, he was thoughtful, cautious, deliberate and sure in preparation.

Day after day he summoned his cap- tains to discuss all the possibilities and eventualities of a conflict with the enemy. He gave them an oppor- tunity to say when, where and how the battle should be fought. From junior to senior he called upon them to express their opinions freely. If any man had a novel idea, it was given careful consideration. If it was an old one with improvements, it was viewed in all phases.

After the admiral had patiently heard his captains and duly interro- gated them, he quietly told them his own exact plan of battle and just what he expected of each man. Whether

strong,

this was made up originally out of his own ideas or from such in union with the best points advanced by his cap- tains, it was reached only after thor- ough deliberation and was final.—Hon. John Barrett in Harper’s Magazine.

Some English Cranks.

When I lived at Newport, R. L, from 1864 to 1878, says Colonel T. W. Hig- ginson, in The Atlantic, there was a constant procession of foreign visitors, varying in interest and often quite wanting in it. | remember one eminent literary man who, in spite of all cau- tions to the contrary, appeared at a rather fashionable day reception in what would now be called a golf suit, of the loudest possible plaid, like that of the Scotch cousin in Punch who comes down thus dressed for church

What love can compare with the a tender self-sacrificing spirit of the weary, watch-worm mother by the side of her suffering little one? Such mothers take little or no account of their own weariness and weakness, but keep on until they drop. They seldom realize how completely their baby’s health depends upon their own.

Every mother, and every woman who ex- pects to be a mother, ought to obtain the health - bringing, strength -creating assist- ance of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It gives elastic endurance to the orgatis concerned in motherhood, and nourishing vitality to the special nerve-centers.

Taken early during gestation, 1t makes motherhood perfectly safe and almost pain- less. J1s beneficial effect is transmitted to the child in increased constitutional vigor. It protects the mother against relapse and improves the quantity and quality of nour- ishment during the nursing period.

It reinforces tired over-wrought women at every critical stage, and heals the 6 ecial diseases to which they are subject. It was designed for this express ee by an educated physician and skilled specialist.

Dr. Pierce has devoted thirty years to this particular field of practice. His thousand. page bonk, the ‘‘ People’s Medica! Adviser, will be sent free, for 31 one-cent stamps to pay the cost of customs and mati:ng only. Or. cloth-bound for 50 stamps. _Address, R. V. Pierce, M. D., Buffalo, N. Y.

Mrs. J. B. Clough, Box 203, Lisbon, Graftor Co., New Hampshire, writes: ‘I am the mother of a nice baby four and a half months old. Heisa nerfect child and weighs about eighteen pounds tr you remember I wrote you about a year ago about my condition. I cannot give too much dea) of suffering.

Waste of Water. Occasionally the typical Pat has a brilliant afterthought; sometimes it is not so luminous as he fancies.

“Are you going to move the well, sorr?” inquired a man of all work, whose employer had announced bis in-

tention of building a new house in a new and more convenient spot.

“No,” answered the gentleman brief- ly, his mind full of his own plans.

“Now that was a foolish question for me to be axin, sorr,” said Pat, after a few moments’ reflection. “Sure, and why didn’t I think? Avy coorse, ivery drap of water would run out and go to waste whiles you were moving it! It’s nothing but a blundering goose | am!”

Affairs of the Heart,

The beautiful young girl hesitated to marry the ugly old man.

“They say you have a bad heart,” she faltered.

“Yes; I'm liable to fall dead any min- ute,” he answered with apparent ean- dor.

Now at last she gave her consent, for in her innocence she believed him.

More marriages are affairs of the heart than we sometimes think per- baps.—Detroit Journal.

He Made It Clear.

The Worcester Gazette tells of a musician whose English is not as per- fect as his music. While conducting a festival at Littleton, N. H., he was called upon to introduce a soloist. He did it in this fashion:

“Ladees und chentlemen, I haf beene esked indrodoose to you Meester Vilder to play for you a flooet solo. 1 haf now done so, und he vill now do so.”

They Don’t Know Nerves.

Those who know the Chinese best have been particularly struck with their absence of nerves. The foreigner fidgets, the native sits still; balmy sleep, especially in hot weather, will resist the foreigner’s sweetest wooing, while to the native lying on a heap of stones or across the bars of a wheel- barrow she comes as a matter of course; we need constant change and variety, they would find contentment and rest on the treadmill.

“It would be easy,” says Mr. Smith, “to raise in China an army of 1,000,000 men—nay, 10,000,000—tested by com- petitive examination as to their capaci- ty to go to sleep across three wheel- barrows, with heads downward, like a spider, their mouths wide open and a fly inside!’

From which it ts evident, says The North China Herald, that in a crusade against noise we can hope for no as- sistance from our native fellow towns- men, but instead a great amount of vis inertiae, if not positive opposition.

A Chinese Dooley.

Two Irishmen stood at Gates ayenue and Bedford street discussing a Chi- nese laundry sign.

“Kin ye say it, Pat?’

“Where?”

“There. Don’t ye say it?”

“Oh, Oi do now.”

“Well, they say a Chinaman’s furst name is his last name. Do ye blave it, Pat?”

“vie *

“Then rade it backward.”

“But rade it furrud furst, an it spells Lee Dew.”

“But rade it backward, man.”

“D-e-w, Do; L-e-e, Le—Dooley.”

“Roight ye are, Pat, an Dooley is a foine old Irish name, but it’s the furst toime in me loife Oi iver heerd of a Chi- nese with an Oirish name. He ought te hang, the spalpeen.”—New York Press.

eicehdinsiiesnininsiiniegincbsieinn A Modest Hero.

Not long ago a French chroniaqueur— Montmirail of the Paris Gaulois—en- countered in a little village of the south of France a gardener who wore, pin- ned on his clean Sunday blouse, the ribbon of the Legion of Honor. Nat- urally, the newspaper man desired to know how he got it. The gardener, who, like many of his trade, seemed to be a silent man, was averse to meeting an old and wearisome demand, but finally he began:

“Oh, I don’t know how I did get it! I was at Bazeilles with the rest of the battery. All the officers were killed, then down went all the noncommis- sioned officers. Bang! bang! bang! By and by all the soldiers were down but me. I had fired the last shot and nat- urally was doing what I could to stan@ off the Bavarians.

“Well, a general came, and says he, *‘Where’s your officers?

* *All down,’ says LI.

“<Where’s your gunners?’ says he,

“<All down but me,’ says I.

alone?’ says he, eS. ae

“‘And you've been fighting here all

“‘P couldn't let ’em come and get the guns, could [? I says. And then he up | and put this ribbon on me, probably | because there was nobody else there to put it on.”

Chesterfield’s Wit.

Lord Chesterfield was never at a loss for a polite retort. Once he proposed a person as proper to fill a place of great trust, but which the king himself was determined should be filled by another. ‘The council, however, resolved not to indulge the king, for fear of a danger- ous precedent, and it was Lord Ches- terfield’s business to present the grant of office for the king’s signature. Not to incense his majesty by asking him abruptly, he, with accents of great hu- mility, begged to know with whose name his majesty would be pleased to bave the blanks filled up.

“With the devil's!” replied the king in a paroxysm of rage.

“And shall the instrument,” said the earl coolly, “run as usual, ‘Our trusty and well beloved cousin and coun- selor?’” At this repartee the king laughed and with great good humor signed the grant.

London Word Butchers.

Time is required by an American ear to accustom itself to English “as she is spoke” in London. The cockney whe had no difficulty of corrupting the Nor- man French, making Route de Roy “Rotten row” and Marie le Bon ‘“Ma- rylebone” and Beauchamp, who was one of the principal lieutenants of the Conqueror and was rewarded with the lands at Warwick, into “Beecham” would readily call High MHolborne “"Ighobon” and Ludgate Hill “Lu- gutill.” Indeed the English of the cab and bus driver, bright as they are in their own employments, fs not readily understood. One has to ask a bus con- ductor more than once as to the identi- ty of the place to which he is bound, for in calling out the names there isn’t the faintest resembiance to what he considers the proper pronunciation.
