* A & ' I SUCCESS OF LITTLE MEN * VALUABLE CCODS PUT UP IN SMALL PACKAGES." Secretary fiage Think* the lMiy*Ioa-ly Small Man Ha* an /.?lvantat;e in Tublie Life ? There Are Very 1 c\v Giant* j Among 1 ho?e in National A ITiir*. | "I sometimes think the physically j small man has an advantage in public life." said Secretary of the Treas- ! ury Lyman J. Gage to one of his assistants. who claimed that short stature was a handicap in the race of life. "There is a glamour or romance about the little fellow who succeeds, con? \ tinued the secretary, "that attracts at^ tention and gives him a reputation. On the whole I believe the man of diminutive size is more effective than ^ the physically perfect man of impos* ing presence. The little fellow is more aggressive and self assertive because / he has not the adventitious aid of bod* ily beauty snd favor. There are lots " of big little men in pubic life and history abounds in small celebrities." This statement was made partly to w encourage Assistant Secretary Ailes, ~ who is disposed *o regard an imposing presence as necessary to full success ! and who sometimes regrets that his ; live feet cannot be stretched half a cubit But the secretary's long experience convinces him that bodily height, breadth and depth do not insure success in life. He has observed ihat spirit and ability bring the man cf small physical size into prominence. It rnav be that Secretary* Gage, in eulogizing the small man, had in mind, 3 an illustration of what the little allows can do the record of Mr. James J \L Eckels, who was a fellow-townswm man of Mr. Gage and comptroller of | !he currency under President Cleveland. Shortly after Mr. Eckels assumed office in the treasury he was nvited to deliver a lecture before one r[ the law classes in Columbia univerjity. He was not recognized when 1 e repaired to the hall and modestly 'ook a back seat, where he was the object of some curious scrutiny on the part of the students, who supposed him to be a young interlope;?a stranger who had simply wandered into the classroom. The professor in charge that even"ag expressed regret that the speaker for the occasion, Comptroller Eckels, had not put in an appearance. The stranger in the back row arose and announced that he was Mr. Eckels. All eyes were then riveted upon the slight, boyish figure and youthful face, inno cent of beard. Disappointment was written on every face, including that of the professor, but when the "boy," as he appeared, reached the platform and began his masterly address, disappointment gave way to enthusiasm, and one of the biggest brains in President Cleveland's administration received a public introduction. The physical giant is not met with very frequently in national affairs, now that Thomas B. Reed of Maine has retired from public life. Outside of the supreme court, where master minds are carried in giant bodies by such men of Justices Gray. Harlan * and White, few of the controlling spirits who are leaving an impress on history are above medium height or weight, and many of the most prominent are far below the average sized iiidix. hj * cii. iac ou^i cmc luiu i 10 yic- | sided over by a man small in stature j and slight of figure Melville W. Fuller, chief justice of the United States supreme court, is a pygmy compared with Associate Justice Gray, who sits at his immediate left on the bench, Justice McKenna, the latest appointee to the bench, is small in stature. Measured by ordinary standards the president of the United States is a small man physically, but there is no doubt of his having achieved great success and having won a high place in the history of the country and of the world. He is hardly up to what is called medium height He has associated with him a number of big little men. Hon. John Hay, secretary of state, ex-ambassador to England and known all the world over as a poet and author, started in life with the supposed handicap of a slight body and undersized figure. Secretary of the Navy Long is below the standard height, and Postmaster-General Smith is hardly up to the medium line. The present attorney-general. Mr. Philander C. Knox, cannot boast of many inches, - but his success where mentality is potent was long ago achieved. - President McKinley's last Republican predecessor, the late General Harrison, was familiarly known as "'Little Ben." He had large men in his cabinet, but never showed to disadvantage, even alongside the talented jtsiaane, wno was aoove me average eize and of very graceful and imposing presence. In congress the little men often attract the most attention. Within the past quarter of a century many statesmen of insignificant bodily stature have.made their names known from I ? one end of the land to the other. Less , than a decade ago few men were more j prominent than the doughty little j Democratic leader, William L. Wil- I son, afterward postmas*er-general. j When the tariff bill bearing his name j passed the house he was caught up and carried on the shoulders of enthusiastic colleagues, among them William J. j Bryan. His feather weight made this ; demonstration easy. There are those j in congress who still remember dimin- j ntive Alexander Hamilton Stephens of Georgia, whose great intellect made j him one of the south's greatest men. ! Today in the house the homely old ! adage that "valuable goods are put up j in small packages" is verified when i Representative John Dalzel' of Penn- ; sylvania, or "Uncle Joe" Cannon of Illinois appear on the floor. The great leaders in congress are not usually nf Anal- Annrmsr nthpr hisr littlp men may be noted Admiral Dewey and General Fred Funston. both of whom have made considerable noise ; In the world. Then there is "Little i Joe" Wheeler. United States Treas- i urer Roberts is so short that when / he sits in an ordinary office chair his feet do not touch the floor.

"What'll you have?" she asked severely at the breakfast table, for he j had been out late the night before and she had not yet forgiven him.

The average cost of the body of a modern long electric car is $2000; the average cost of a set of double trucks foi* such a car is $G90, and the average cost of the motor is $1500. making the total cost of the car $4100. "THAT OTHER TERRI3LE DI3EAS3.H A Stimulus to Mctlic:il Men In the Hattle with Cnnvi'r. The tragic ending of the tragic life of the Empress Frederick has gi .*en | a new meaning to the pathetic appeal j which King Edward made the other ! day to English medical men to spare no effort to combat "that other terrible disease?cancer." Sir James Paget, the famous English physician, once declared that "every one would have cancer if only he lived long enough," and that must, I suppose, be accepted as a fact; but it is evident from the medical comments of the week that there is no ground for asserting that the disease is on the increase in this country. An English physician who speaks with authority assures me on the contrary that although the essential nature of the disease has so far baffled research, considerable progress can bo recorded during the past tv?*o decades. In some notes he has sent me he says: "Just as in the case of consumption, cancer was believed to be mainly due to some inherited fault of constitution, and it need hardly be said that this hypothesis engendered a despairing frame of mind in the practitioner as well as the patient. The present general belief throughout the British medical profession, in support of which numerous facts might be adduced, is that the disease is at first entirely local or limited, and in all probability the result of the growth of some specific micro-organism. The constitution may possibly have some influence ?it is a question of relative suitability of soil and seed?but it would not appear to be nearly so important a factor as in some other parasitic diseases, tuberculosis, for example. The conclusion follows that if the disease is recognized early enough, and is in some accessible part from which it can be removed freely by tne surgeon, there should be a fair chance that it may never recur; and modern improvements in diagnosis and methods of operation have actually accomplished this in large numbers of cases. If, however, precious time is wasted by hesitating and temporizing, or by submitting to the treatment of quacks, the malignant growth not only decoys the part it has first attacked, zut particles are carried to neighboring glands or to internal organs, just as the seeds of a noxious weed may be scattered over the whole garden. "Assuming this view to be correct, the directions in which improvement may be looked for are two?in the first place, the recognition of the parasite; and secondly, as is now being done in the case of tuberculosis, > .11 plague, maiaria ana many oiner uiscasos, the attainment of knowledge concerning its life history and the conditions which favor its growth. Until lately the real nature of all these disorders was unknown, although physicians suspected the existence of morbific germs long before it was possible to see these under a microscope or cultivate them in a test tube; but, thanks to improvements in the instruments and methods of the laboratory, the advances in the sister sciences of chemistry and biology, and the brilliant discoveries of certain investigators, we are now no longer dependent on mere theories, which have aided us so little in the past" When Lincoln'* Wtr? Fnlled III* Tlnlr Mrs. H. A. Baldwin, an old lady now living in Los Angeles who was a close neighbor of the Lincolns in Springfield. Illinois, gives the following personal recollection of Lincoln in Leslie's Monthly. "While Mr. Lincoln was living in Springfield, a judge of the city, who was one of the leading and most influential citizens of the place, had occasion to nail uDon him. Mr. Lincoln was not over particular in his matter of dress, and was also careless in hia manners. The judge was ushered into the parlor, where he found Mr. Lincoln sprawled out across a couple of chairs, reclining at his ease. The judge was asked to be seated, and, without changing his position in the least, Mr Lineoln entered into conversation with his visitor. "While the two were talking Mrs. Lincoln entered the room. She was, of course, greatly embarrassed at Mr. Lincoln's offi'-hand manner of entertaining his caller, and stepping up behind her husband she grasped him by the hair and twitched his head about at the same time looking at him reprovingly. "Mr. Lincoln apparently did not notice the rebuke. He simply looked up at his wife, then across to the judge, and, without rising, said:? "' Little Mary, allow me to intro^^ Til /I crr\ CJa.O n/1.

All day long the playgrounds are j crowded with children. As there is always some one present to look after them moihers have learned that it is the best place to send them, and the baby, too. goes along to spend the day. It is a great sight to see the little ones working in the low sand beds. There are pails and shovels, and there are wheelbarrows and various tools to lighten this play labor. In imagination they have days at the seashore. The teacher is the one to furnish incentive to these imaginative visits. The sand, which is renewed two or three times every season, is kept in a wholesome condition. The merry-goround is always a centre of wonder and amusement. There is a May pole for May parties, and the latter are as popular in August as in May. Through the swings and other amusements many lessons in regard for others are taught, and a promise in relation to relinquishing an attraction is as sacred as a bond. Thousands of children were ministered to in these playgrounds last summer, and the city of New York expended $20,000 during the months of July and August in this particular line in connection with its vacation schools?Haryot Holt Cahoon, in the Woman's Home Companion. IJrcipe* for Happinei*. Happiness is not to be procured like hardbake in a solid lump; it is composed of inumerable small items. The recipes for its acquisition are simple and therefore we ignore them. Love in marriage, fidelity in friendship, affection between parent and children, courtesy in intercourse, devotion to duty and perfect sincerity in every relation of life?those are the ingredients of a happy life. In the quest for happiness one could not do better j than put into practice the precepts of : the great Persian: "Taking the first step with the good thought, the second with the good word and the third step with the good deed. I entered I paradise."?From Sarah Grand's London Lecture. The Enemies of the Lobsters. Everything that swims is an enemy to the little embryo lobster, inducting "him self?for the larger ones rat the little ones in most wanton fashion. The little fiy lobsters shed their shells seventeen times <on the average during the first j year of their existence. After they axe five years old they shed them four times a year. The range of the lobster is about 12000 miles, from the straits of Belle Tie on the north of Cape Hatteras on the south, and fifty miles out to sea. It wast long a mooted question whether the;' -went up 1 and down the roast, like shad, mackerel. ' blue tich. cm., or whether they remained stationary like the oyster and clam. This was settled by fhe fish commis.-ion in a very curious and interesting j way. They attached a zinc tag .to :a llctt j of thcin at various points, and ret them i free. These lags were numbered, and a | record kept of them in -p. book. Fishermen were given a pri.re iT they wxrald return them to the commission 'bv inail with a statement as to where and when found. Bv the*e means it was soon discovered that they travel hack and forth I out to sea. instead of np and down th< coast. A Trarm in Trouble. "I had an old barn in a field half a mile from the house," said a Nassau | farmer the other day, "and it was a j camping place fcr tramps. One night j this last summer there was a big tliun- j der storm, and I felt pretty sure that a i bolt hit the old barn. I didn't turn out : 'till morning, however, and then I saw ; the barn had been burned. As I wan- ! dcred down there I came across a tramp i in a fence corner. He was looking dazed i and done up. and when I asked him ; what had happened he slowly explained: i "Why, this thing is going to make me lots of trouble." "What thing?" I asked. "This old barn. There was nine of j us in there when the lightning struck, ! and as I was the only one who got out ' I suppose I'll have to hang around here and attend the funerals of the other eight."?Brooklyn Citizen.

England, work is being carried out to enable mining to proceed still further imder the sea. The company's first tease only extended to ordinary high-wfter mark on the south. Through the ta:> face caving in when ore was extract id, it was necessary to leave a barrier of 360 feet wide, to protect the mines, as the sea would otherwise have filled the hollows on the surface and eventually have flooded the mine. This barrier was uliimately found to contain over 5,000,000 tons of ore. A second sea wall going beyond the older one has been commenced. The wholesale slaughter of kangaroos for their valuable hides _has resulted in the practical extinction of these remarkable animals except in the remoter regions of Australia, and most visitors make their only experience of the continent's typical quadrupeds in the zoological gardens of the principal cities. In the "back blocks," as the interior parts of Australia are '~T1??n+ill +/-\ lio found in i. 'liieu, iiicj* cue oiiu iu ._ considerable numbers, and afford ex- I citing sport to the hunter. The tribe of Australian kangaroos includes, besides these animals proper, a constantly dwindling succession of related species?wallaroos, wallabies, paddymeloos, and so on, ending with the dimin- , utive and dainty kangaroo rat. Everybody has observed the habit j that some insects have of hovering or j dancing on the air, generally in a group, with every manifestation of enjoyment. There is a species of twowinged flies that are particularly fend of this sport, for sport it undoubtedly is. They assemble in some spot sheltered from the wind, and indulge in their dance for hours at a time. Their motions consist of alternate rising and falling in periods of a few seconds, and over a distance varying from one foot to four. They become ?0 much interested in the dance that they cannot be scattered. If disturbed for a moment they at once reassemble, and continue the sport as if nothing had interfered with them. Much has been written about this habit, but the naturalists agree, we believe, in considering it real play. According to a paper recently read by Dr. Aron before the Berlin Medical society the inhalation of oxygen for the relief and cure of certain lung and heart affections, in which it is comrrinnlv rproir-mended. is of little value. The atmosphere, he said, contained a sufficient proportion of oxygen to saturate the haemoglobin of the blood, and as the haemoglobin when saturated was, of course, unable to absorb more oxygen inhalations of oxygen were evidently useless. He had found that the results of practical experience were in accordance with these views. The few instances in which the oxygen seemed beneficial were cases of dyspnoae (difficulty in breathing), in cardiac and pulmonary diseases, but the improvement was maintained only while the inhalations were actually in progress. In the treatment of apparent death from drowning- artificial respiration was just as efficacious. In poisoning by carbolic, oxide and in rarefied air, where the amount of available oxygen was less than the normal, the admin- j Istration of oxygen was desirable. j .Apoi>lrrv and Krain Worker*. Tho ntimhpr of deaths from apo plexy daily among prominent business men is a matter for comment. It almost appears that the disease has a special predilection for brain workers who have passed the life meridian. Some explanation for this may be made by taking into account the stress of mental work to which the ambitious and untiring American so willingly yields himself. The brain is the last organ that seemingly feels the strain, and the ultimate breakdown is usually more or less sudden. The latter was particularly the case in the deatn of Bishop Littlejohn. For a long time the mine was being prepared for the final explosion. In a person of his years, temperate habits, vital force and persistent mental activity the gradual wear and tear upon the blood vessels of the brain directly invited the ultimate issue. The arterial supply was evidently quite extensively involved in the gradual degenerative process that occurs late in life. The hemorrhage was consequently quite extensive, involving the deeper portions of the centres, tearing their tissues and overwhelming pain and consciousness in a quick stroke, j \Tpianr>hnlv as is the fact, this mode of death is the best of all that are caused by apoplexy, and the patient is spared a life of subsequent misery and comparative helplessness while awaiting and dreau.ng an inevitable ending.

No part of England was more familiar to Dcfoc than East Anglia, and it now appears that he may have discovered the name there readymade. Not that the; Robinson Crusoe whose grave has just been mentioned could have supplied him with it, for "Robinson Crusoe" was published in 1719, just ten years before this worthy "Upholder" was born.?London Globe.
