When the morning sun was about to make its appearance “Jim” was doing a stunt with the banister. He finally landed in the kitchen without arousing the people of Ham- ilten and sat down. On the stove rested a stewpan, and immediately a fierce appetite came upon him. His wife must have left something eat- able in that pan, and she did—a nice mess of boiled rice; and it tasted mighty good, until his wife came in to find out how much of the back end of the building was intact. When she saw the stewpan she screamed: “Jim, you have de- voured that starch Mary left for the toemorrow!”—Cincinnati En- swarm around bees, and too, wash quirer.

Parliamentary Frontiers, On either side of the commons chamber of our. parliament house there is a distinct line along the floor, and any member who, when speaking, steps outside the line on his side is liable to be called to order. These lines are supposed to be scientific frontiers, and the neutral zone be- tween is beyond the length of a sword thrust, and although members no longer wear swords, except thuse who are selected to move and second addresses to the throne on certain occasions, the old precaution _ still lingers on.—Westminster Gazette.

Wives and Hasb Make nds Should Always Themselves to E Attractive h Other, A great mi:take which married women often make is that of becoming gen- when careless of their dress anc in the house not expected. very eral appearance s The wives of men with a limited income are they who are most prone to err in this re- spect from a foolish idea that dowdi- ness means economy, but nothing is more fatal to the happiness of a fam- ily than the unfortunate notion that “anything does when we are alone— we must keep our finery for those oc- casions when we have visitors.” Many a man is tempted to leave his home, tired of constantly meeting a shabby, untidy wife, and to seek amusement and gayety elsewhere. On their re- turn from business, husbands or brothers like to see their wives or sis- ters looking fresh and neat and at- tractive. No extravagance need be in- dulged in—a blouse of some bright color, a clean collar, a bow of pretty ribbon, and the hair neatly and be- comingly arranged, will make all the difference in the cheerfulness and at- tractiveness of the home. A_ child should be taught from an early age to be tidy and clean to meet its fa- ther; and those who are old enough to take their meals with their parents should never be allowed to come te the table until face and hands have | been washed and hair brushed—boys as well as girls. They should also be taught that tidiness and politeness in their own family circle are even more company important than when in the company jof visitors or in another person’s The husbands also should be remove all traces of the ime of the office or work- | house. careful to dust and jshop, and pay a little attention tc fore taking the H N. ¥ their toilet be I or fireside at the table Weekly.

He had owned a number of good horses, but had never become knownson the turf until he won the great international stallion race at Paris with Sweaze. The Amer- was deeply inter- estecdn the race, because many promi- nent owners had entered horses. Little was known of the animal which Mr. Mackay had purchased at Little Sil- N. J., for 500. ‘To the surprise of the natives and the great satisfac- tion of the Americans, Mr. Mackay’s horse won in straight heats in 2:18 each. This was on the turf, and not on a level track, and the performance has not been equaled since that time. Mr. Mackay’s first American track was ican-eolony at Paris venture on an with Banastar, CLARENCE H. MACKAY. (He Will Contrel His Father's Busin&ss Interests.) Great with whom he won the Metropolitan handicap. The Mackay stable was gradually enlarged, and although it is now not as large as many of the American stables, it contains about 15 horses which, according to an ex- ave a bright future.” ce H. Mackay, although he is a sportsman in everything that the word implies, has never been a “sport.” He is never seen in the places frequent- ed by the sporting fraternity; he isa temperate man, but not a total ab- stainer, and is not aga ler, although he occasionally sits in a friendly game of poker. He is an all-around athlete, but is not a big man. Mr. Mackay married Miss Katherine Duer in May, 1898, and a daughter was born to them on February 5, 1900. His home at Roslyn, Long Island, is a beau- tiful place, which was completed re- cently at a cost of more than $1,000,- 000, As to the fortune which will come to the young man ther , says the Ne sitive pune, are no} York Tr 1 Varion figure while it has b and esti- | some persons who kno slue of the investments B é i as Mackay, « pacity and espite hi j | the enterpr | nected, dic how mu methodi life so con left his affairs even without hi | thing will | just } ing them.
