ELECTION STRATEGY.
Am In?i4nt of ? JRagllak ParlU*
men tarr Cvoteit
In the days before the Institution of
the secret ballot, when the cuiulklate
with the louKeet purse usually wou an
election, n former Lord Duiulouald,
who refused to Klve bribes, contested
lloulton, but wub beaten by ait opponent
who paid his eleetors at the rate
of ?5 a vote.
Then the unsuccessful candidate
concolvcnl tills brilliant plan, says the
writer of a history of the Duudonald
family. lie announced to his friends
that ho was quite determined to win
the scat next time without bribery.
Then he sent the town crier round the
town to announce that all who had
vot<Hl for him In this llrst election mi>rht
repair to his uKcnt, from whom they
would receive ?10.
As comparatively few people had
voted for him, this was not a very expensive*
process. And at tho next election
Lord Duudonald was elected by
an enormous majority. After tho triumph
several people came to him and
delicately snpurosted that some reward
nus uuu w kui'u loynuy.
"Not a farthing," was th? reply.
"But, my lord, you gave ?10 a head
to tho minority at the Inst election, and
tlio majority have been counting on
something handsome on tills occasion."
"Perhaps so," said the clever candidate.
"My former gift was for their
disinterested conduct lu not taking my
opponent's bribe of ?5. For me to pay
them uj\v would be to violate my own
prlm'tples."?Pearson's.
"HOOKS" HIS PLUNDER.
Tb? Wnr tho Snoak Tlilof In Moxto*
Files Ills Trade.
In Mexico the sneak thief has his
business down to a science. Tho favored
manner of stealing la from the
houses. Most of the buildings are but
one story high, and the doors are kept
closed and locked. The windows arc
as large as the doors and extend to tho
floor. To keep the thievos out of tho
house they are protected with heavy I
Iron bars, but the Mexican snoak thief
has found a way to overcome this difficulty.
Because of tho lowness of the window
he can look Into the room and
"spot" the articles he wishes. Then ho
waits until the occupant of the room
is In some other part of the house. A
hamh(H) pole about as long ns a ttshlng
rod Is produced, to which Is attached
a piece of string with u llsh hook on
tho ond.
Tho thief, by practice, can cast tho
hook so that it will catch on almost any
article In the room, no mutter how far
It may bo from the window. Slowly
It Is drawn forward and pulled through
the bnrs.
In this manner articles are taken off
tho bureau or tallies, rugs snatched
from the floor and bedclothes from
the bed. Clothing left on chairs or
hanging on tho wall Is easily removed.
The thieves do not even wait until the
occupants are out of the room In all
cases. There have been ensos where
men and women who were undressing
In their rooms have lost clothing while
their backs were turned to the window.

No member of the Iirltlsh parliament
Is permitted to say bluntly and directly
that another Is drunk, but he may
hint at the fact In perlplirase, as when
Mr. Gladstone, replying to an unconventional
speech of Disraeli's, remarked,
"The right honorable gentleman
has evidently had access to sources of
Inspiration that are not open to me.**
A violent scene was cuused in the parliament
of Victoria, Australia, by a
labor member saying of a legal colleague,
"The honornblo and learned
gentleman was once called to the bar,
and he has since gone frequently without
being called." The angry barrister
retorted, "You tea drinking skunk!"
Eventually both withdrew and apologized.
The Aurora no refills.
The ancients viewed the aurora borealls
with superstitious awe, looking
upon It as an omen of direful disaster.
It Is not unusual for descriptions of
old time battles to mention the fact
that the "curious rod 'northern llirhtv
gave us warning that something awful
was about to happen." In the annals
of Clnn-Mac-Nolse Is to be found an
account of a purple aurora which
lighted up the northern Rkles In the
year <>88 A. D. on the night preceding
the dreadful battle fought by the Irish
tribes of Lelnster and Minister, and It
Is not necessary to mention the fact
that the people took it as an omen of
the great slaughter which soon followed.

CHINESE POLITENESS.
M k a Large Part of tha Vary Life of
the People.
If there Ik; one tiling more tlum
arvotJier upon which the Chinese
pride themselves it is upon their politeness.
In spite of the three or
four inches which he lacks to make
his height equal U> tliat of the average
American, a Chinese otlicial in
full costume carries liimself with
great dignity and self possession
and makes an imposing figure. In
this respect Ike owes much to his
long dress, but more to the patient
study of correct carriage. There
is not a single awkward movement
as the Chinese gentleman bows his
visitor into the house or supplies
him from his own hand with a cup
of tea, which is indispensable to an
interview. Not until his guest is
seated will the Chinese host venture
to tako up his position 011 the right
hand of the former, and if in the
course of an excited conversation he
should raise himself, however slightly,
from liii ]x>sitioii it is the duty
of the other to do the same. No
Chinese gentleman will sit while his
equal stands. Occasionally, where
it is not intended to l>o over respectful
to a visitor, a servant will bring
in n cup of tea?a cup in each hand.
Then, standing before his master
and tho guest, be will cross his
arms, serving the guest, who is to
the right, with his left hand, his
master with Uie right. The object
of this is to cxjx>ae the palm?in
Chineso the heart?of either hand
to each recipient of the ton.. It is
a token of fidelity and respect.
Tliia tea is not intended for
drinking nhd ia called "guest tea."
It has a higher mission than to allay
thirst. Unfortunate ib tike man who
tosses his off beforo ten words have
been exchanged. The oriental will
stamp him ua a barbarian. The
mission of the tea is to be used by
'either party as a signal that tho interview
ia at an end. A guest no
sooner raises tho cup to his lips than
the voices of a dozen shout to his
coolies to bring his chair. So, too,
... I A l. _ . P <1 '
WIII'II UIO masicr OT LUG IIOUBC IS
prevented longer acting as host he
raises the cup to his lips as if to
drink tho tea, and immediately the
guest's chair is called for.
Strangers meeting in China may
freely ask one another their names,
provinces and their business prospects.
It is always considered a
compliment to an old Chinaman to
ask him his age, hut the middle
aged do not as a rule care for the
question, and their answers can rarely
be depended upon. It is also good
form in China to ask the number
and aex of a man's children; also if
his father and mother are still alive,
llis wife, however, must not he mentioned,
even in tho most indirect
manner. Friends meeting, eithor or
both in sedan chairs, stop their
bearers at once and get out with all
possible expedition. The same rule
applies to acquaintances meeting on
horseback.?New York Herald.
A Witty Compliment.
At the first performance of Dumas'
"Etrnngere" everybody appeared
to be so preoccupied and wore
such a serious countenance that
Marshal Canrobert, who happened
1^1. ' * '
i<) do present, remarked it and inquired
the reason. .Mine. Brolian,
it in recorded, answered:
"We are on the eve of a great battle,
and 1 suppose fear ailects us, as
you see/'
"Fear?" the marshal said, looking
around with a puzzled air.
Mine. Brohan immediately summoned
an attendant and brietly said,
"l'icard, a dictionary for the maraluil."
A neater or wittier compliment in
fewer words it would be impossible
to produce.
Old Greek Dog Names.
Would the reader like a list of Greek
hound names? Xenophon will furnish
him with a catalogue of fortvseveii,
most of which flow naturally
into an English equivalent?active,
bustler, ravuger, reveler, cheerful,
and the like. "Give your hounds
short names," he says, "that it may
be easy to call them." Accordingly
the names which he leaves to us are
without exception dissyllabic, for
the Greek ear was not alive to the
morns 01 mo dactyl 111 hound nomenclature,
and we look in vain for
such a name as Aggelos. But wq
find, at all events, Hebe in bis list, a
name which after 2,000 years still
does duty in English kennels, ?

At Frank's house they had quince
jam for supper, but Frankie had
been ill, so his mother said to him:
"Frank, you cannot have any jam.
It will make you sick, and then you
might die." Frank took this like a
little man until he saw hia mother
help herself to jam the second tin*e;
then he pushed his plate slowly toward
the forbidden dish and said
with deliberation: "Well, if you are
going to die I might as well die too.
Gimme some of it."

"Boy, hava a care for the little

"O blind beggar, look out for thy

And the blitul beggar, feeling his

"O Frankish woman, look out for

"O burden bearer, thy load is in

"O water carrier, look out for the

"O son of Sheitan, conceived in

"I was in Johannesburg, South

the Jameson raid," said a theatrical j
man. "Funds I had none, and on j
account of the activity of the Boers

a small company of those (

the town, but 1 secured a small

went out to borrow one. I succeeded,
but the big hearted piano man '
said I would have to get some one ,
to move it. Bv this time 1 didn't !

in this country. I told him my trou- '

be allowed to play. The poor fellow
then sat down and played a
nocturne from Chopin, and such
playing I had never before heard.
The man was in for murder. His
list of alleged crime* included three
or four killings. But how he could

When the imitator failed to accomplish
this he apologized for his lack

orange peel he had scattered on the
table. Oh, well/'said Hook, "you
haven't failed. Instead of a pig you

When somebody spoke to him of
poverty as a virtue, "That's making

The Cat.

examination: "The eat is a square
quadruped and lias four legs at the
eorners. If you want to plea e the
animal }rou must stroke i4 mi the i
back. If it is very much | ivised it ;

that your hand cannot get any farther.

There is an amazing opportunity \ler

from this high standpoint of its being
the house of Cod; that It should be
kept clean with frequent wushlngs;
that it should be kept strong with constant

CtirlNtluu Character.
Christian character Is constituted of
more than church membership--the ol>
servant*? of certain forms of rltuul and
knowledge of the principles and polity
of any special Christian church. Nor,
Indeed, Is a creed the substance of It.
These things being excluded aa essential
to it, the crucial question is whnt
Is it that makes Christian character?
It is simply a faith in the Lord Jesus
Christ. Repentance is only preparatory
to tho exercise of faith In Christ.
It is but the breaking up of the soil
to receive the seed. It takes life to
develop Christian character, and It
takes death to crown it. We look beyond
the deprivation, sacrifice and suffering
of life to the unseen and eternal
things Hint are to be known in tho
crown that awaits all who are faithful
even unto death.? Uev. J. II. Lakes,
Methodist. Atlanta.
Clinrch lOMentlala.
There are some fundamental essen
tin Is which every church ought to reveal,
ho it country or cosmopolitan,
large or small. Tho tlrst, It seems to
me, Is that It must be composed not
only of regenerated, but of consecrated,
men and women. A church succeeds, I
no uou considers success, as that ;
church surrenders Its will to God, Religion
is essential In a man's life. The
most powerful agency In the world today
la co-operation. Germany, united
by Iilsmarck, Is u great power. The
United States is what It Is because of
that unity. Trusts may be abused, but
they have the one cardinal principle of
co-operation and consolidation which is
so ilne an example of loyalty. Lastly
I think that a church should have a
loyal nnd aggressive service along with
an unfaltering love for the kingdom of
God. Into the church must be put
some of the enthusiasm?shall we say
the vim??which the business man puts
Into bis business, the politician into
politics and the society woman into so*
ciety.?Rer. Dr. Kerr Boyce Tuppo^
