MAKAROFF’S NICKNAME.
Storlrn of (lie Admiral Who
Whm Cnllrd “Tlie KiiKlinliniiin.”
The late Admiral Maknrott of the
Russian navy was nicknamed “The
Englishman" by the Emperor Alexan
der II., owing to his intense activity
and devotion to outdoor sports, says
the London News. Even when long
past middle age he allotted two hours
a day to physical exercise*. He rode
before breakfast every morning, but
his favorite exercise was swimming.
Not only was Makaroff a first rate
swimmer, but he attempted to coerce
his subordinates into equal proficiency.
In 1900 he gave a silver cup to be
competed for by the sailors at Cron-
stadt, and, timing the race, was much
disgusted to find that the winner had
taken longer to cover half a verst than
he had often done it in himself. Every
morning he was rowed in a boat from
the government quay for the purpose
of bathing, and "old Bluebeard," with
a towel across his arm, was sometimes
seen walking to the quay within a week
of the breaking up of the ice.
One of Makaroft’s weaknesses was
the l»elief that he was a born artist
He invariably copied the designs for
his own inventions, and his success in
this encouraged him in the belief that
he could draw from nature.
During a holiday, two years ago, on
the north coast of the Gulf of Finland
he spent nearly all his mornings turn
ing out water color drawings of the
surrounding scenery. One day two
young cadets from the Sissoi Veliki,
who were spending their holiday on a
datcha or summer house close by, saw
nn elderly and somewhat untidy old
man working laboriously at a sketch.
Looking over his shoulder, they began
to criticise the drawing unfavorably.
The admiral turned round and said
quizzically, “I think I know you, young
gentlemen.’’
“We don’t know you,” retorted one
scapegrace, “but you’re as like old
Bluebeard as two eggs.”
The incident ended by the admiral
inviting the offenders to lunch, dis
missing them with the caustic words,
“Even elderly artists deserve respect
from naval aristocrats.”

Novelty Knr Men Kvolveil liy Ilrltlnh
Huberdnahera.
A firm of British haberdashers, ac
cording to a newspaper report, have it
in their mind to place upon the London
market a necktie which is sympathetic
to all possible atmospheric conditions,
says the London Globe. It is to be
called the barometer tie, and instead
of looking at the glass the wearer of
one of these ties lias only to look In the
glass to know what the weather will
be like.
For instance, on a fine morning the
wearer dons this cravat and finds that
it is a summer blue. He walks down
the street and, catching sight of his tie
Jn a window or looking glass, si^es that
it lias changed to a delicate pink and
hurries home for his umbrella. A little ;
inter the tie deepens to nn angry pur- 1
pie, and the wearer then wires home to j
have the fire lighted in bis ty^room !
and his winter garments set out to aft*.
And if by chance the tie changes to a
violent green the poor frettisl proprie
tor hies him to the shoemaker for ga-
locbes or to the ironmonger for sknfes,
ns it will assuredly snow in a few
hours.
The most disquieting feature in this
announcement is that the sympathetic
material of which the cravat 16 com
posed is suitable to every kind of gar
ment, so that Indies may adopt it for
blouses, hats, skirts and parasols. One
really doubts if humanity could endure
the spectacle of a London street with
the frocks of all the ladies performing
these dizzying transformations.

Plan of Advauclnir the Standard* of
Manner*.
If we are to have any fine civiliza
tion in the United States good man
ners must be drilled into the school
children, and the Outlook proposes to
the teachers of the country that they
shall organize everywhere in the
schools leagues for courtesy, voluntary
associations of boys and girls for the
purpose of advancing the standards of
manners and of developing those in
stincts of courtesy, kindness and help
fulness which are characteristic of the
American in nil parts of the country.
The American ought to be the most
courteous and the best mannered per
son in the world, for his natural kind
ness, his desire to he helpful and to
make himself agreeable are recognized
everywhere. He fails, whenever lie
does fail, not because of bad inten
tions, but because of lack of training
or because of haste. As the use of
English is supervised in every recita
tion In every good school, so the man
ners of every boy and girl ought to be
supervised and corrected in every
school relation.
“Elirlit Hour” Monument.
The first monument to trade union
ism was erected recently in Melbourne,
Australia. It is called the Eight Hour
monument, ns it is in commemoration
of the eight hour system, which was
begun in Australia forty-eight years
ago. The monument is a tall marble
pillar surmounted by an oblong block
bolding a globe and torch. The word
“Prosperity” is written on the globe,
and three large figure eights are en
graved upon the block.

I CAN CURE YOU!
The specialist is now indispensable. In all walks of life there is a demand for the man
who can do one particular thing better than any one else, and such a man is one who has confined
his endeavor to, and centered all of his energy and ability on the specialty he has chosen for his
life’s work.
Early in my professional career I realized that Chronic Diseases were not being given tho
attention which their importance warranted. I saw that these diseases required a special fit
ness which the busy practitioner could never acquire. For more than twenty years I have de
voted myself exclusively to the study and treatment of these diseases, and the fact that physi
cians recommend me to their patients is an evidence of my skill and ability in my special line. I
give special counsel to physicians with obstinate and obscure cases.
I have devoted particular attention to chronic diseases of men and women, and not
class of disease requires more intelligent and expert treatment. It is a fact that a majoty
men owe the seriousness of their condition to improper treatment, and a failure to realh
importance of placing their case in the hands of a skilled and expert specialist.
