PERSONAL AND LITERARY.

C. P. Huntington is the only survivor a of the great Southern Pacific quartet, composed of Stanford, Crocker, Hop- kins and himself, and he now owns, or holds, an option on three-fourths of tbe stock of the road.

A German statistician has heen count- ing up the books that have been writ. ten about famous women. Ile finds that Marie Antoinette, Joan of Arc, Mary Stuart and Pope Joan head the list, with over a hundred hoolts each. A Pretoria barber who is now in London says that President Kruger never patronizes a barber, setting his own razor and shaving himself. Mrs. Kruger cuts her husband's hair and does the work In ahout the average amateur style.

, In 1883 three now famous men were at the University of Strashurg-Roent- gen, Paderewski and Tesla, Then Roentgen was & professor of physics, Paderewski was an instructor in music and Tesla was installing the electric light plant at the university.

It is a habit of Senator Cockrell, of Missouri, to read in the senate the name of every constituent who sends him s petition for presentation. Thie gets the names of his people in the Record in hig black type, which they delight to see when he sends them marked copies with his compliments. Senator Hanna has characteristlo dis- regard for the conventionalities of po- lite society. A few evenings ago he shocked Washington society by ap- pearing in public wearing a sack suit and a silk hat. He has been the re- cipient of several hints on this suh- ject, hut ignores them In his usual burly way.

An old interviewer of Washington. pronounces Gen. Wheeler one of the hardest men to interview in this coun- try. He says: "The general is even more shy than he has been represent- ed. 'Reticent' doesn't half describe him. He is simply the despair of every newspaper man who tries to get 'copy' out of him."

IN HIS OWN STRENGTH.

Sad, Untimely Ead of a Boy Who Spurned the Thought That He Needed Christ's Strength,

"Oh, yes, religion's all right for some people, but I don't need it! I'm strong enough to do what's right with- out being helped. . Of course, for a fel- low that's weak, religion's a good thing, and for some people it's the only thing that will keep them "straight. But you needn't worry about me!"

These words were spoken by a young man just at the outset of his college career. A friend had suggested to him his need of a strength heyond his own to help him resist the many tempta- tions incident to college life. The friend sighed when he found his kind- ly remonstrance useless, and went

home with a sad heart.

Let us follow the young man for a few years.

An exceptionally brilliant scholar, he soon won the regard of the faculty, while his social proclivities and un- failing good nature made him a favor- te with his companions at school. This was at first. As the months went by, the hoy who didn't need help hegan to find the freedom of college life a different thing from the wholesome rstraint of the life at home. He learned easily, so his studies did not occupy all his time, and he fell gradually into the habit of going "out with the other fellows" occasionally, and 'even drank an occasional glass of wine.

He would have scorned the sug- gestion that this could lead to anything worse. He stood at the head of the class in his studies, and a little. mild dissipation nf that sort wouldn't do

It's Easy To Take

Thin, pale, anæmic girls need a fatty food to enrich their blood, give color to their cheeks and restore their health and strength. It is safe to say that they nearly all reject fat with their food.

SCOTT'S EMULSION OF COD LIVER OIL WITH HYPOPHOSPHITES OF LIME & SODA

is exactly what they require ; it not only gives them the im- portant element (cod-liver oil) in a palatable and easily di- gested form, but also the hypo- phosphites which are so valua- ble in nervous disorders that usually accompany anæmia. SCOTT'S EMULSION is a fatty food that is more easily digested than any other form of fat. A certain amount of flesh is necessary for health. You can get it in this way.

WAYS OF THE CANDY STORE.

Jome Stores Let Clerks Eat' What They Want-Men and Women Who Like Cuady.

There is an old story to the effect that it is a custom in candy storee to tell the new clerk to eat all the candy she wants; the result heing that she is soon surfelted and wants no more candy for a long time. The fact appears to be that, substantially, there is no rule or custom in candy stores regarding the eating of candy by the salespeople. It a, of course, required that they shall not eat candy in the presence of cus- tomers; It might be possible that a new clerk who developed an inordinate fondness for candy would require a gentle hiat; but clerks are not told when they begin work that they may or may not eat candy; nothing is said about that at all; and they do as they please about it, and eat what they went; governing themselves it is to be pre- sumed by discretion and common sense. It is also the common testimony that people do not get tired of candy hy be- ing always in the midst of it; and this seems to apply alike to those engaged In the manufacture of candy and the handling of it hy wholesale, and to the clerks engaged in the constant ac- tual handling of candy in the sale of it at retail. Those who are fond of candy, men as well as women, are not surfeited by the sight of it in quantities con- stantly surrounding them; if it Is good eandy they keep on liking it just the same, and enjoy eating what they want of it.

As to whether men or women like candy better there was some difference In the expressed opinion. At some places it was said that men and women liked candy equally well; it was said, for instance, that in a little company of men and women eating candy, the men would eat as much as the women. At one place where the opinion was expressed that men, take them alto- gether, do not like candy so well as women do, it was said that if a man was fond of candy he was likely to he very fond of it, so that he might eat a quantity of it at a time. It was every- where said that among children hoys and girls are alike in their love for candy ; \ hut taking into account ex- pressions of people outside the business as well as those in it, the weight of persons there are more women with a sweet tooth than men; that is to say that men are not so fond of candy as women.

While the customers 'n the candy shops in the shopping districts of the city are almost exclusively women, there may he found candy stores a very large proportion of whose many cus- tomers are men. These shops are found in the region devoted to trade and finance and occupations in which men are more commonly engaged and in- terested. These men, however, are huy- ing mainly for home consumption, in city or suhurhs; and in these later years there has been seen among the purchasers here an increasing percent- age of women customers due to the increasing number of women employed, in that part of the city .- Chicago Inter Otean.

THE BOSS BARBER.

He Is Always Avolded by the Man Who Knows What His Pe- cullarities Are.

"You're next, sir," said the hoss har- Der, indicating a fat man who was buried behind a newspaper. "I'll wait for awhile." replied the fat man. "I'm im no hurry." As another man climbed into the vacant chair the fat man leaned over to another customer who was wait- ing his turn and confided that he was in a hurry, a deuced hurry, but he would rather lose his turn than be shaved hy the proprietor of the shop. '"It isn't that I have any grievance against this particular harher," he went on, "hut shun all hoss harhers as 1 would a plague. In the first place, he patronizes you, and in the second place he is in- variably the worst harber in the shop. Then, too. it takes him ahout twice as long. He will lather one side of your face and then go over to the desk tn make change for a customer who is go- ing out, for he Is generally his own cashier. He considers.it his duty tn ex- ebange airy persiflage with each cus- tomer as he leaves the shop, and by the time he geta hack to you your face is caked in cold lather. This usually happens four or five times while you are getting shaved, and you may consider yourself lucky if a salesman for a per- tumery or soap house doesn't come in to talk up his wares. In that event you are bound to he kept in waiting for ten or fifteen minutes, and when you are finally shaved your peace of mind is destroyed for the rest of the day. Nn hoss barbers in mine. I know 'em too well, and I wait every time."-Philadel phia Record.

any harm. of himself!

The first year passed, and the young man had found no difficulty in keeping up with his work, and won most of the honors in his examinations. He came home loaded with congratulationa fron all sides. His friend, however, saw an almost imperceptible change in him. He asked whether he found himself still atrong to resist temptation. The young man laughed carelessly and replied, with a superior air: "A fellow doesn't have to be a prude. I think I'm still capable of looking out for myself. You need not have any fear on my ac count!"

A year later, and the young man found he was not standing so well in his examinations as formerly. He was epending more of his time with the "other fellows," and often had a bad headache in the morning, and did not feel like studying. Still, hls work was fairly ereditable, and a fellow can't work all the time; he must have a little

run! When he came back in the fall be would hrace up and do better ngain. There was a hint of recklessness In the tone of the young man when he talked with his friend again on his return nt the close of hls sophomore yenr. Again the friend tried to show him that his only safeguard was to take Christ as his guide and resolve never to yield to the tempter, and never to touch a drop of strong drink. The young man listened with smiling in- credulity, and laughed at the idea of there being any danger in an occa. sional glass of wine, or even stronger drink. "Thank you for the interest you take in me," he said, complacently, "but there really is no cause for alarm. I think I know enough not to go too far!"

Poor fellow, the net was already drawing closer about him, already the terrible habit had him in its power! Yet he went on, blindly but gayly, to hia destruction. His mother was a widow, and her, son was her idol. She was far from suspecting the truth, He seemed as frank and as affectionate as ever while with her.
