Heard the Call of the Wild.?Senator
Earle Chamberlain of Oregon smiled a
few nights ago when the topic being
talked turned to vacation time. He explained
that he was reminded of a recent
conversation in a popular cafe.
It was during the lunch hour the
enator said, and four genial business
men were sitting at a table. Outside
the air was soft and balmy, and everything
in nature was a sweet allurement
to buy a railroad ticket and beat It for
the wooda.
"It la my system," remarked one of
the party reflectively, glancing through
the open window. "There's nothing so
appealing as the call of the wild."
It may strike you that way, old fellow,"
responded another, with a faint
smile, "but right here I beg the privilege
of casting a dissenting vote."
"Tou don't know what you are talking
about, Jim," emphatically declared
the first "Did you ever hear the call
of the wild?"
"Tea," replied Jim, with something
akin to a sigh, "from the head of the
stairs the other night, when I didn't
get home till 2 o'clock in the morning."?Philadelphia
Teelgraph.
Called.?Friends of Johns Hopkins
university are striving to raise 1760,
0^0 to match Mr. Rockefeller's offer of
$660,000 and complete $1,000,000 for the
removal of the Institution to Homewood,
a splendid old estate on the
heights overlooking Baltimore. Dr. Ira
Remsen, the president, Is enthusiastic
over the new site, and he dwelt upon It
In an address to the students. During
his remarks he said impressively:
'1 stood on a bluff"?
Some one whistled softly, and a wave
of aaerrlment followed.
The doctor was nonplussed, but repeated,
"1 stood on a bluff"?
The laughter rolled Into a roar.
Vainly the doctor tried to complete
his sentence. Afterward he asked members
of the faculty what It meant, but
they pitied his Ignorance and claimed
they did not know. Finally the doctor
was told of certain elemental facts of
the great American game of poker. The
climax came when he overheard students
referring to him aa "a bully old
sport."?Baltimore Sun.
A Sign of Poverty/?They were talking
about poverty a few evenings ago,
wehn Congressman Gilbert N. Haugen
of Iowa, told of an impression a man
from the rural wilds once got on visiting
the city.
The ruralite, the congressman said,
had gone to the town on a long-anticipated
visit, and when he returned he
had much to relate of city ways and
wiat he saw.
"They put on all kinds of fancy frills
up there," he narrated to the eager
crowd at the corner store, "but I dont
believe they hev got half the money
they pretend to hev."
"Well, do tell," wonderlngly exclaimed
one of the eager listeners. "Ye
really don't mean It, Jake?"

of Jake. "One night I went by a house
thet looked purty big, but Jes, ther
same, ther people in it were so darned

one planner."?Philadelphia Telegraph.
A Misunderstood Jest.?Lord Lytton
when viceroy of India, was seated one
day at dinner next to a lady whose |
name was Birch and who, though very
good looking, was not over-Intelligent.
Said she to his excellency:
"4*e you acquainted with any of the
Birches?"
"Oh, yes!" replied Lord Lytton. "I
knew several of them most intimately
while at Elton?Indeed, more intimately
than I cared to."
"My lord," replied the lady, "you
forgot the Birches are relatives of
mix*/'
"And they cut me," said the viceroy.
"but," and tie smuea au woniea smiie.
"I have never felt more inclined to kiss
the rod than I do now."
Bad to.say, Mrs. Birch did not see the
point and told her husband his excellency
had insulted her.
Insatiability.?"If all these tales
about the moving picture trust are
true, the trust is as insatiable as Dr.
Thlrdly's congregation."
The speaker was Mayor Oakley Curtis
of Portland. He resumed:
"Witnesses declare that, if they got
films from outside firms, they could
have none from the trust Such insatiability
recalls Dr. Thlrdly's words
to his congregation on a sultry August
evening:
" T see a great many of you sleeping,'
said the good doctor, mildly. 'I
do not wonder at this, for your work is
hard, and many of you have come a
long way. Therefore I am not surprised
to see many of you sleeping soundly;
but what does surprise me a little
Is to see so many sleeping who had
such a comfortable sleep at both our
morning and afternoon services.' "
Too innocent for Pa.?The young
man who thought he knew how to
manage old men told the girl whose
father he had just interviewed on a
matrimonial topic that he believed
everything would be all right
"We took to one another at once,"
he said. "He even went so far as to
borrow $10 from me. Surely, he can't
refuse to let you marry me after
that"
"Don't be too sure," she said. "You
don't know pa,"
The next day he found that he did
not Indeed, know pa.
"You made a mess of it with that
$10," the girl told him. "Pa says that

A Necessity.?The other Sunday
two small boys were Industriously digging
In a vacant lot when a man who
was passing, stopped to give them a
lecture.
"Don't you know that It is a sin to
dig on Sunday, unless it be a case of
necessity?" asked the good man.
"Yes, sir," timidly replied one of the
boys.
"Then why don't you stop It?"
" 'Cause this Is a case of necessity,"
replied the little philosopher. "A feller
can't fish without bait"?Washington

BEACON LIGHT8 OF HISTOrtY
Example* of Human Virtue That Have
Made the World Better.
[Under this heading from time to
time will be published a series of authenticated
extracts doailng with historical
examples or the good and bad
in human nature, mostly good; but ail
xurmsnlng an admirable cnart of conuuci
to be emulated or avoided]:
POLJTEN <?&>.
Sentiments.
There are many accomplishments
which, though they are comparatively
trivial, and may be acquired by small
abilities, are yei ux. ki km imyui wuvn.
In our common intercourse with men.
Of this kind is that general courtesy
which is called politeness. I have
heard It defined "an artificial good
nature;" but may we not more truly
say that good nature Is a natural
politeness? Art will make but an
Imperfect work, if the assistance of
nature is wanting.
Politeness Is that continual attention
which humanlt/ Inspires in us,
both to please others and to avoid
giving them offence, "/he surly plaindealer
exclaims loudly against this
virtue, and prefers his own shocking
j bluntness and gothlc freedom. The
courtier and the fawning flatterer, on
the contrary, substitute in its place
insipid compliments, cringings and a
jargon of unmeaning sentence* The
one blames politeness, because he
takes it for a vice; and the other is
the occasion of this, because that
which he practices Is really so.
The conversation of most men is
disagreeable, not so much for want of
wit and language, as of good breed
tag.
If you resolve to please, never apeak
to gratify any particular vanity or
passion of your own, but always with
a design either to divert or inform
the company. A man who only alms
at one of these is always easy In his
discourse. He Is never out of humor
at being Interrupted, because he considers
that those who hear him are
the best Judges whether what he was
saying could either divert or inform
them.
He that Is peremptory In his own
story may meet with another as peremptory
In the consideration of It, and
then the two Sir Positives may have
a skirmish.
It Is an unpardonable incivility to
interrupt a person In telling a story;
it Is much better to let him fall in
some circumstance of the history than
to rectify him, if he asks not our advice,
or to signify we knew long before
the news he would acquaint us
with. To what purpooe is it to refuse
a man the pleasure of believing
he informed us of something we were
Ignorant of before?
No injury makes so deep an impression
on one's memory as that
which is done by a cutlng malicious
jest; for let it b-? eevr so good,
yet it is always extremely bad, when
it occasions enmity. Raillery, therefore,
Is no longer agreeable than
while company Is pleased with It, and
should never be used but with regard
to failings of so little consequence that
the person concerned may be merry on
the subject himself. It is a pleasant
but decent mixture of praise and reproach.
They who have a true relish for
conversation enjoy themselves In a
communication of each other's excellencies
and not In a triumph over
their imperfections.
The wit of conversation consists
? ~4* In than In
Uiuro 111 UUUlUft AW AM mmavav _
showing a great deal yourself. He
who goes out of your company pleased
with his own facetlousness and Ingenuity,
will the sooner come Into it
again. Most men had rather please
than admire you, and ueek less to be
instructed and diverted, than approved
and applauded; and it is certainly
the most delicate sort of pleasure
to please another.
We should talk very little of ourselves
or any particular science for
which we are remarkably famous.
A man may equally affront the
the talk, or observing a contemptu
ous uience.
Women are frightened at the name
of argument and are sooner convinced
by a happy turn or witty expression
than by demonstration.
Whenever you command, add your
reasons for doing so; It is this which
distinguishes the approbation of a
man of sense from the flattery of
sycophants and the admiration of
fools.
Nothing is more silly than the
pleasure some people take, In what
they call "speaking their minds." A
man of this mark will say a rude
thing for the mere pleasure of saying
it, when an opposite behavior, full as
innocent, might have preserved his
friend or made his fortune.
Examples.
Petrarch relates that his admirable
iriena ana contemporary, jL>anie aughierl,
one of the most exalted and original
geniuses that ever appeared, being
banished from his country and having
retired to the court of a prince which
was then the sanctuary of the unfortunate,
was held in great esteem; but
became daily less acceptable to his
patron by the severity of his manners
and the freedom of his speech.
There were at the same court many
players and buffoons, gamsters and
debauchees; one of whom, distinguished
for his impudence, ribaldry and
obscurity, was greatly caressed by the
rest which the prince suspecting
Dante not to be pleased with, ordered
the man to be brought before him,
and having highly extolled him, turned
to Dante and said, "I wonder that
this person who is by some deemed
a fool, and by others a madman,
should yet be so generally pleasing
and so generally beloved; when you,
who are celebrated for wisdom, are
yet heard without pleasure, and commended
without friendship." "You
would cease to wonder," replied Dan
te, "If you consider tftat conrormity
of character Is the source of friendship."
This sarcasm, which had all
the force of truth and all the keenness
of wit, was Intolerable; and
Dante was immediately disgraced and
banished.
But by this answer, though the Indignation
which produced it was
founded on virtue, Dante probably
gratified his own vanlry as much as
he mortified that of rMiers; It was
the petulant reproach of resentment
and pride, which Is always retorted
with rage and not the still voice of
reason, that Is heard with complacency
and reverence; If Dante Intended
reformation, his answer was not wise;
If he did not intend reformation, his
answer was good.?Adventurer.
From the foregoing examples we
may draw this inference: That he
who does not practice good-breeding,
will not hnd himself considered as tne
object of good-breeding by others; it
will, therefore, be no improper conclusion
of this artice to give you the
character of a complete gentleman,
an appellation which ought never to
be affixed to any man's circumstances
but to his behavior in them.
By a fine gentleman is meant one
I that is completely Qualified for the
crnrvA a nrl Mrvtce BJt Well SB the
ornament and delight of society. Asl
to his mind, we must suppose it J
I graced with all the dignity and elevation
of spirit that human nature
is capable of; to this we must add
a clear understanding, a reason unprejudiced,
a steady Judgment and an
extensive knowledge. As to his heart.
It must be firm and Intrepid, free
from all meanness and every inordinate
desire, but full of tenderness,
compassion and benevolence; as to
his manners, he must be modest
without bash fulness; frank and affable
without impertinence; complaisant
and obliging without servility;
cheerful and good-humored without
noise. In a word, a fine gentleman
is properly a compound of the various
good qualities that embellish mankind.?Mentor.
To give an example perfectly worthy
of Imitation In every respect, I must
relate the following anecdote:
Lord Carteret, in his lieutenancy
(of Ireland), being very fond of Dr.
Delany, who was Indeed worthy of
universal esteem, came one day quite
unattended, and told the doctor he
had come to dine with him. He
thanked his excellency for the honor
he conferred on him, and Invited him
to walk In his beautiful gardens?
which his excellency did with great
good-humor. They took a turn or
two, when the servant came to Inform
them that dinner was upon the table.
The doctor had generally something
suitable to the season for himself and
his mother, to whom he behaved with
true filial tenderness and respect.
The doctor made the old lady do the
honors of his table; for which, or for
the entertainment, ne never maae me
least apology, but told his lordship
that,
"To stomachs cloy'd with costly fare,
Simplicity alone Is rare."
This demeanor of his was Infinitely
agreeable to Lord Carteret, who,
though a courtier, hated ceremony
when he sought pleasure, which Is Indeed
Inconsistent with it. His excellency,
after the cloth was taken
away and the bottle introduced
(when, consequently, the lady departed)
told the doctor that he alwayB
believed him to be a well-bred man,
but never had so clear a demonstration
of It, as he had this day seen.
"Others," said he, "whom I have
tried the same experiment on, have
met me In as much confusion as if I
came to arrest them for high treason;
nay, they would not give me a moment
of their conversation, which and not
their dinner, I sought, but hurry
from me and then, if I had any appetite,
deprive me of It by their
fulsome apologies for defects, and by
their unnecessary profusion."?Memories
of Mrs. L. Pllk.
Edward's Ill's eldest son was also
named Edward. He was Prince of
Wales, and because he wore black
armour, he was called "Edward the
Black prince." ai me unue m
Crecy he was only fifteen or sixteen
years old, and his courage helped
much to win that battle.
Many years afterward his father
gave him the command of a small
army, and with it, instead of attacking
the French in the neighborhood
of Calais, he went to the south of
France, and did all the harm he
could wherever he went The king of
France collected a large army and
overtook Edward the Black Prince at
Poictiers, which you will find in the
middle of France. The prince defeated
the French, and took the king
prisoner.
At night after the battle, the prince
had a supper prepared in his tent for
the French king, and refused to sit
down beside him, but waited behind
his chair, saying that It was his duty
to stand before the king and not to
forget the respect he owed him, al
though the king was a prisoner. Thus,
in those times, kings and princes and
knights thought it not wrong to burn
and destroy each other's kingdoms
and ruin or kill the people, but they
would have been ashamed not to show
all outward reverence to the brave
and noble, especially if they were unfortunate.?Historical
Pictures.
FEAR.
A Dreadful Quality that Prevents
Achievement.
Was anything ever done by one who
was afraid?
Would Columbus have made his
discovery of the New World if he had
ben burdened with dark forebodings?
Would the gospel ever have been
preached to the remotest parts of the
world of the missionary had feared
his mission?
Would there have been a United
States If the signers of the Declaration
of Independence had feared for
their lives, as well thay might?
Would the railroads have crossed
the continent and pierced the desert,
and would our captains of Industry
have had the courage of their convictions,
In building our industries?the
wonder of the world in size, output
and wages?if they had been timid
while risking millions?
Was a battle ever won by a general
who feared ? Was ever a great
cause vindicated by one without a
strong heart and undying hope? Was
ever a prize secured by a competitor
who did not enter the race believing
he must and would win?
Is anytning more coniempwuie
than cowardice? Is anything more
noble than courage? Is anything
more childish than fear, or anything
sweeter than confidence in an age of
unrest, unreason, suspicion and disturbance?
Let us turn from the dismal
swamps and lift up our eyes to the
hills. Let hope inspire and courage
strengthen and the battle will be
won.
This is the lesson to teach the children
in our schools, to tell the patient
toiler at his work, to speak to the
anxious business man at his desk, to
impress upon the preacher in his pulpit
and the counselor in the hall of
legislation.
And a faint heart never won a fair
lady.?Lesslie's Weekly.

HAUNTS OF BIG GAME
Africa it Still the Paradise of the Huntars.
The biff game hunter, Bays a London
letter, Is Just now tnlnklng of
preparing his kit and general equipment
for the season on East African
plains or in Central African forests.
The recent news from Somaliland
has therefore had for him a special
interest, for it seems to be a question
of the moment as to how fpr that
country, hitherto one of the most attractive
hunting grounds remaining
to the sportsman who seeks big game,
win De open to travel in tne coming
months.
There are several reasons why Somaliland,
using the name In Its wildest
application and without special reference
to the confined area on the coast
line over which the British protectorate
Is exercised, should possess peculiar
attractions for the mighty hunter.
.Exploration and the consequent commercial
exploration of the country
la of more recent date than In most
other parts of Africa and vast tracts
remain In their almost virgin state,
with game of various sorts present In
profusion. The spice of danger too,
is always existent
The advance of exploration, the development
of the rifle and the greater
facilities for transit have combined In
recent years to Increase the numbers
of those who follow this fascinating
form of sport; but concurrently they

when it will scarcely be possible to
find any big game left to hunt It is,
indeed, common knowledge among
the initiate that the sport is now more
difficult and more costly than ever It
has been. Vast regions, however, are
still to be found of which sportsmen
have as yet barely touched the
fringe.
The more adventurous, and the
more wealthy, will, of course, seek
the remoter haunts, remoter, that Is,
in the sense of greater inaccessibility
and thus it is that Somaliland and
British East Africa have long been regarded
as the most desirable objectives
for big game expeditions fitted
out in this country. Here more than
elsewhere the king of beasts is to be
found In this wildest state; antelopes
of several varieties, some of the
larger inclined to be very savage,
abound; elephants are scarce, but
there are rhlnocerosis. leopards, chee
tahB, hyenas and other smaller varieties
of carnivore, all according excellent
sport, with fully as much of
the element of danger as the most
ardent sportsman can desire.
Bomallland has been described as
"a place of sand and scrub and
stones." It Is, In fact, a vast plateau
with an average elevation of 3,000 feet,
the portion comprised within the
British protectionate being almost
mountainous in comparison with the
extensive plains of the Interior. The
greater part of the country Is covered
either with tall, coarse grass or
more commonly with thick thorn
bush or Jungle, among which rise occasional
isolated trees.
The conditions of lion shooting in
Africa vary with the locality. Thus
on the open plains of Somaliland
lions may be stalked on foot, ridden
down on horseback or driven Into the
dense bush, where the usual procedure
afterward is to sit up at night over
a bait or "kill" inside a z&reha of
thorn bushes. As aiming in these circumstances
Is a matter of difficulty,
a flashlight is sometimes employed by
the up-to-date hunter. When taking
shelter In detached patches of scrub
the quarry may be driven by a back
of dogs or as a last resource the bush
may be set on Are, the sportsman having
previously concealed himself down
wind.
When emboldened by hunger, and
generally at night, lions in this region
will fearlessly attack human beings.
One rarely hears of such an Incident
as that narrated recently by
Lady Bruce, who accompanied her
husband, Burgeon General Sir David
RnifiB. on hla sleeDlner sickness com
mission to Nyasaland. Lady Bruce
stated that she and a companion were
passing unarmed from one station to
another, when they met a lion face to
face. The lion gazed at them for
some moments in surprise, then turned
round and stalked away.
The black rhinoceros is still plentiful
in Equatrial Africa and is frequently
met with in Somaliland. While
it will charge with little or no provocation,
it does so blindly and rarely
turns to renew the attack. This may
be by reason of its limited range of
vision. Its sense of smell is extraordinary
acute and it is rendered still
more difficult to stalk by the presence
of its almost invariable companions,
the "rhinoceros birds," which
warn it of danger.
Elephants are becoming gradually
exterminated by the ivory hunters,
white and colored, notwithstanding
the attempts made to enrorce protective
measures. The oryx, a large
variety of antelope with long, rapierllke
horns, Is a particularly ugly customer
to tackle when, as not Infrequently
happens, it turns the tables
on Its pursuers and charges; even the
lion has been known to flee before It
It is Idle for the would-be big
game hunter to think of pursuing his
hobby unless he Is adequately prepared
for a considerable expenditure.
No one, of course, who sets out to
hunt In Africa has any anticipation
of meeting with the comforts and
conveniences attendant on a short hunt
in English countryside, but as a matter
of fact the hardships and actual
peril?peril from climate, from hostile
tribes as well as from the savage
nature of the game pursued?Is far
greater than the ordinary stay-at
home sportsman has tne sngnieei
conception of.
It is estimated that an individual
expenditure of something like $2,500
is required for an expedition in East
Africa or Somallland, the most expensive
localities in which to hunt,
in consequence of the numbers of
porters and followers with which a
sportsman is obliged to encumber
himself.
Fly Large at a Cat.?A house fly "as
big as a cat," exhibited at the recent
International Congress of Hygiene and
Demography at Washington, D. C., Is
now permanently on exhibition at the
American Museum of natural history,
says Popular Mechanics. This, however
Is not the real thing, but a model fifteen
Inches In length and 64,000 times
the size of a living fly. This model, the
making of which required a year of patient
labor, Is the most accurate and
adequate representation of the external
anatomy of the common house fly In
existence.
