TYPE IS FUNDAMENTAL- In the fundamentals I have found American citizens to lie just about the same everywhere. In whatever locality of the country we live, whatever our fortune or tccupation in life, there exists just aliout the same essential good qualities and much the same short comings in any gathering of our citizens. Of course, each com munity has its esiecial tempta tions, its especial shortcomings, ami if it is wise each community will try to cure itself rather than to cause heartburnings by railing at the shortcomings of a sister community. There is ample field for reform energies of every one of us injiis or her particular sphere of home and ncigborhood activity. Not only is all of this true as between one community and an other, but it is just as true between one class of our citizens and an other. Now and then we meet well-meaning people who have a genuine horror and dread of all rich men and think of them as be ing set "apart by icculiar vice ami iniquity. Now and then we 1 nieet equally well-meaning rich ' . 1 . -ii : l men who nave an equauy irrauuiui dread of those whom they style 'labor leaders. In each case I think the hostility is in large part due to a want of sympathy caused by complete ignorance of the men who arouse such distrusf or anger. Aft a matter of fact, if we take a ruber of men of large I given nu grow up ignorant, and if they are gether in ties of brotlierhood, and for barrooms would be to stav at the riht of State Prohibition and sent to school they cannot, while that while it is proper and neces- home, and with public sentiment told the ,ifluor traffic to Pack UP VOlirii'- nlvlt U'nrL- linn I nnkwla l 1.1 : .r. nnl I . .T .

The (ierman's incapacity for hu mor is more proverbial than his aversion to ventilation, though Ierhaps less real. A' year or so ago an American student in lierlin was attending a lecture in a room drowsily close. To keep awake lie liegan whisicring to a German at his side the story of Mark Twain about the man who lived all his life in a chronic fear of fresh air. The relatives of this man, as is well known, decided after his death to have his remains cremat ed; ami th climax of the story occurs when the undertaker, opening the door of the oven to see wiiether incineration was com plete, was appalled to hear the corpse siak out and request him to close the door and shut off the draught. The American sprung the joke as effectively as he could. " Hut never a smile was his reward. His German friend remained for sev eral moments in a perplexed study. Then he leaned over to the Amer ican and said: "But how . could that be? The man was dead! Gunner "Going to Jamestown this year, old man!

Narrowly Escaped Death by Lightning (Monroe Enquirer.) Mrs. W. K. Helms and her son, Mr. Richard Helms, and her little daughter Etta, who live about six miles south-west of Monroe, came very near being killed by lightning during an electric storm last Tues day afternoon. Mrs. Helms and her son and daughter took refuge from the storm in a dwelling Mr. Richard Helms is building. There are no door shutters nor window sash in the house, but it is covered and weatherboarded. During the storm Mr. Helms was sitting in a window and his mother and sister were sitting in a room a short dis tance from him. Them was a blinding Hash of lightning and all three of the people in the house were rendered unconscious, their faces burned as by lire iind Mr. Helms was knocked from the win dow where he was sitting and fell heavilyjon the floor. All three of the injured ones soon regained consciousness and were able to walk home after the storm was over. No damage was done to the house. The last moment had come. They stood at the oien door. For twenty-four long hours they would not meet again. "Light of my life!" she mur mured, feverishly, twining herself with redubled ardor about his mus cular form. "Light " 'Matilda, said a gruff voice from above, "put out.the light and come to bed." Every Maa His Own Doctor. The average man cannot afford to em ploy a physician for every slight ail inent or injury that may occurr in hia family, nor can he afford to neglect them, as so slight an injury as the scratch of a pin has been known- to cause the loss of a limb. Hence every man - must from necessity be his own doctor for this class of ailments, buc cess often depends upon prompt treat ment, which can only be had when suitable medicines are kept at hand.

A reporter was talking toThonv mas E. Harley, the young Cleve-1 land millionaire who is going to tour the world for a wife. "A young man of your means," said the reporter enviously, "should have no difficulty in find ing a wife. He shouldn't have to tour the world for her." "Oh, shouldn't he?" said Mr. Harley. "Don't you know that the right kind, of girl doesn't judge a man by his money ? Money, my friend, is the last thing to judge anyone by. "Yes," the young millionaire went on, "he who judges ieople by their money is apt to fare like the Cleveland man who gave a dollar to each of his little sons. " 'Now, boys, said this foolish man, 'I am going away for a week. Take this money ami see how much you can make out of it in my absence. To him that does the best I'll give, a fine present.' "On his return at the week'send he called the boys to him. " 'Well, George, how have you succeeded?' he said to the first. "George proudly took two dol lars from his pocket.

THE "CHARMIIIC" WOMAN Wneeler Wilcox in New York American. ) The French women confess that the American women are hand some, well dressed, entertaining and brilliant, but this is their crit icism: The American woman has no charm.

THE DESIRE TO PLEASE The charriiing woman usually possesses a certain amount'of fem inine vanity she likes to please, not only to please the mind and heart, but the eye. She usually dresses becomingly and takes excellent care of her jiossesses no absolute beauty of face or form. The woman famed for her beau ty is rarely charming, because she has been so spoiled and flattered from the cradle up that her heart is always devoid of the sympathy which' must form a strong part of charm. When a beautiful wo man is unselfish and sympathetic and loving her charm usually be comes historic. THE POWER OF KINDNESS It was said that Madame Keca mier was as bloved "by her own sex as she was admired by the op posite. She was goodness and charm personified as well as beauty. A woman friend said of her once: "First of all, she is good; then she is brilliant; then she is beautiful." Ninon de L'Enclos, who was not "good," like Recamier, was charm ing. In spite of her free and easy morals, she left the impression of great charm upon the world. Her moral derelictions are forgotten in her charm. She was kindness itself to other women, and to the age of 84 re tained her hold upon the affections of loth sexes. Charm must spring from an af fectionate nature and from a heart which desires to give pleasure rath er than to be admired. But the charming woman usually receives more admiration than the professional Ijeauty, the great genius, or the most brilliant of her sex who do not possess charm. l U-ll V;OII I I'll HiC.lt-- u v yi receive, the irreatest is to be called!

"The deceased was a strong, brave soul. She fought a losing battle against a relentless disease, and craved no quarter- but a fair chance. Never, having "had this, she lost the light,' but the, punish ments that were heaicd uhui each other brought no cringing, and she surrendered without a fear. Aside from her struggle with dis ease, she manifested the element principles of a strong character a discriminating judgement, a linn puriosc, and an unswerving course of action. Her habit was b do right, to pray, and. then to set her face without fear towards what ever came.' Her sense of justice was exact, and precise truthfulness was a passion.
