STRUCK DOWN AT THE ALTAR, For the third fee within the memory of the present generation a President of the United States has been shot down by an assassin—shot because he was elevated in the conspicuous place of First Citizen of the Republic. Lincoln, Gartield—and now McKinley. It is a melancholy record. , But first of all it is necessary to say that it is not a record against free institutions or free speech or democratic intercourse between the people and their public servants. In a population so varied as ours, in a time when life jis at such affierce tension that the nerves of the calmest are on edge, in a day of abounding cranks and _notoriety-seek- © RNARE arate selves “anarchists,” “social revolutionists,” &c., &c., the | wonder is that so few of these crimes are attempted. None of these crimes indicates a decline of the humane spirit, a lessening of the forces of civilization. They are isolated acts, such as have occurred in all ages and among all peoples. Civilization reigns; and the Republic lives. sree 8BA-1-0-9-0.6,6.0.46-2004 It is the irony of fate that Mr. McKinley should have {been struck down while the noble, the broad, the human-|¢ ity-breathing words of the greatest speech of his career were still echoing through the country and the world. In that Buffalo speech he was indeed the President of the whole people, peculiarly their representative, peculiarly the voice of their lofty aspirations for peace at home and abroad, for the works of civilization domestic and foreign —for the achievements of trade and commerce and the in- ternational exchange of ideas which represent the traditions: ‘The Lady Offers Her Hand.

Pajamas and Where to Wear Them Dear Stra. Ayer: Is it correct to wear pajamas outside of one's own room? I would also like to Know the difference between wear-. ing them In a “public’’ hotel and private house, as I have seen it done a good ~ deal. AJABIAS take the place universally at present of the old-fashioned night shirt. The fact that this costume 1s more dignified as well as be- coming to the manly form does not give tho wearer of {t the privilege of draw- ing-rooms or public places while so clad. In a man's own home he might per- fectly well go to his bath and return tn his pajamas.
