Vance of North Carolina was a shas bark personage of the old Andrew Jackson school. " writes Alfred Henry Lewis in the Saturday Evening Feet Be never wearied of poking fun at Ransom, his colleague who was the opposite of Vance. Then wu nothing of the shagbark about Ransom. Be waa essentially the showcase senator, who dressed as accurately as an artist might paint a picture and won little glossy, glove tight boots, the men looks whereof would pinch one's feet. Although the Brummel of the senate, Ransom was not a publicist of weight or profundity, and Vance did the work for their state. "The other day, Ransom," said Vance when the two, with others, were In the cloakroom one dull afternoon Morgan was talking for a Panama canal, and the cloakrooms wen crowded "the other day when I waa down in Raleigh I beard a compliment for you." And what was thatT" asked Ran som, to whom praise was as a flower to his nose. 'As I was sitting In front of the tav ern, went on a nee, "a DiacK Doy lea out a horse for exercise.

"Well, then,' I insisted, Vhafs all this fuss about with your blanket and you leading him about for exerciser What's he named after Senator Ran som for? ' 'Why, as I states,' explained the black boy, 'he can't trot an' he can't run; but, all de same, dish yen hoes has his p'lnts. Most of all, sah, he's a pow'ful fine prancer.' " The Boy Kiev Him. refer A. B. Wldener, the Philadel phia financier, is so Immersed in busi ness that he does not often find time to wander over the grounds of his mag nificent country place, Lynwood Hall, which Is decidedly the show place of Pennsylvania.

In a corner be came upon a little boy, the bead coachman's son, at play with a fox ter rier.

This order is effective every where and will bo obeyed to the letter. The grading by the farmers will' in sure them better prices and will make tho handling at the local market and by the manufacturer much easier. Tobacco growers should heed this tug gestlon aad act according'?. HOUSE WHISPERERS.' S lfa4taa That Waa Vm to Iriakt Aataal Tmmi. Inland, aa well as the far north of. Scotland, had-pcealbly still haa-fta hone whisperer," though tha 1?rch. ertnga which fire such pennanepc and gonlallty to tha Scottish "pknr man's whisper" never seem to have e Istod In the sister island. Irish "whis perers" bare been lonely men, whose secret has generally died with them, ays the Golden Penny. - Tha most famous "whisperer" of modern times waa James Sullivan of Dunhallow. No bona waa ever brought to Sullivan which be did Dot permanently tame. Ordinarily restive animate be would master In a few mlrv utea. For exceptionally vicious horses he took about half an hour, during which time he abut the stable door and forbade any one to open it till be gave the signal. When the door Waa opened tha horse waa still lying down and Sullivan by his aide, playing with him aa a child does with a poppy. Then wu no tying up of tha foreleg or any Other risible means of coercion. Bow his ascendency waa obtained no one could tell. A successor of Sullivan named O'llara became almost equally famooa, and was often urged to explain what waa the secret of bis influence. But O Tiara treated his qnesttonen as Sam son did the Philistines, deluding them with various and unsatisfactory an swers. At one time, for Instance, be said the secret lay in "rocking' tha horse putting one band firmly oo Ms cropper, and with the other gnaptaff hls shoulder and then swaying hlm to and fro, gently at first and gradually Increasing tha motion till you throw him. At another time ha protested that his plan was to bite the animal's car. Both these an well known Jockey tricks. The most stubborn hone, they say, will be wholly subdued by being thrown twice or thrice, and If yon can get a vicious horse's ear between yor teeth ana bite nam yon an us master and he your submissive slave from that time forward. As to the Idea that tha "whisperer" works by kindness. It stands to reason that that method sup poses the entire education of tha ani mal to be In your hands. If you have only, half an hour to do your work in, you must bdow overmastering power as well as klndlg feelings. A bone whose temper has been spoiled by chronic bad treatment looks on all men alike as tyrants and bullies. TO CURE A COLD IR ONE DAY Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tab lets.
