AN ANGRY MUSICIAN. Amusing and Pathstie Story of Con stant's Pioturo, "Too Latal" An amusing aDd pathetic story U told of Benjamin Constant's Brat pic ture to attract attention. It was called "Too Late" and represented Fortune and Glory visiting ao artist Just as he had breathed his last. Tbe artist was lying on the bed. The figure of Death stood near tbe door through which Fortune, carrying a boi of money, aud Glory, bearing laurels, bad just eo tered. Tbe artist received many letters from those who had seen the painting One was written by s professor of tun sic, an old man. who expressed In touching words the emotion he bad felt at the sight of tbe artist's work He asked Constant to visit and talk to him about "Too Late." The Invitation was accepted, but as soon as tbe old professor saw tbe art ist be uttered an ejaculation of sur prise and anger. "Why, you are quite a youth!" he exclaimed. "I thought you were old and. like myself, bud spent your life In vain endeavor to ob tain recognition of your abilities. 1 conceived that picture to be the last despairing cry of a man as unfortu nate as I am. I And you are quite young and your eyes are full of hope. Yon are a humbug, sir, and I request that you leave this bouse Immediate ly!" TRUE STANDARDS OF LIFE. Tha Moature of a Man Is What H Is, Not What He Has. It takes so long to learn bow to live, so long to get even a glimmering of what life Is for and what we ought to do with ours. We are so prone to live In the future, to fret ourselves about It. We are so busy yearning for the Joys we Imagine other people have aDd worrying about tbe trouble we Imagine we are having that we make of tbe present, tbe one thing we are sure of. an endless regret. And of all the follies tbe limit Is to permit some one else to make our standards for us. Haven't we Intelli gence? Can't we think for ourselves? To want things we don't need, many we do not really care for. Just because some one else has them and wouldn't understand If we didn't have them! To struggle aud strain to make a show- when all the neighbors know It Is only a show and would respect us a beap more if we bad tbe courage to be our selves! Death's standards ought to be life's standards. Death does not ask bow big a house we hall from, nor bow many university degrees we have won, nor what Is our bank account. fs'ot what we have nor what we know, but what we are. And that's our measure of everybody but ourselves. Erman J. Rldgway In Delineator. PIPES! pipes! pipes!

When tbe dispatches first announced tbe illness of Emperor William much alarm was felt throughout Germany, and attention was drawn to tbe dls ease which caused tbe death of bis father, officially given as cancer of the throat Writing of this time. Harold Frederick, In his "Life of tbe German Emperor," says: "The crown prince (father of the kaiser) returned to Berlin from Ems thoroughly frightened. He bad no doubt whatever that he was suffering from cancer and expected to die within a year. He was In a state of complete depression. In a touching Interview between tbe three Hobenzollerns, Fred- KMFEBOB WILLIAM. erlck, with tears in bis eyes, declared be did not desire to reign and that If by chance he survived his father be would waive his rights to succession In favor of bis eldest son." Although a boy at that time. Em peror William knew all the details of his father's affliction and never got over the fear of dying from the same trouble. Early In life be went In very keenly for outdoor exercise to build np his health and continued to do so op to the time of bis Illness. Ills ath letic prowess, however, was badly hampered by bis congenltally crippled left arm, which has been withered since birth. It Is four inches shorter than the right, with a malformed band and only rudimentary fingers. Will the Hoopikirt Come Baokf Tarls Is gasping. And no wonderl Tbe dressmakers of the French capi tal, whence so many of tbe world's styles originate, are now proposing to bring Into popular favor again tbe crinoline, the bustle and If yon have a weak heart, gentle reader, pause right here the boopsklrtl Maybe we can get along with the first two mentioned after a time, but that m o n s t roslty In dress, the hoop skirt never! In these days of the bargain c o u n ter sale, tbe crowded car, the narrow isn't it great? flat, tbe not too roomy elevator and the mighty bustle everywhere, surely the boopsklrt can find no place, or, rather, If that gar ment Is worn, what space would be left for anything else? But those dressmakers say It Is bound to come. TAFT'S SUMMER PLANS. Chisf Exseutive and Family Will Qo to Beverly Again This Year.
