TAFT'S PERSONALITY.
As a matter of fact, to any one who
knows Mr. Taft, the charge that he
lacks "personal magnetism" Is sim
ply laughable, writes an Englishman
In Harper's Weekly. I will defy any
one to come across him In private
without feeling drawn toward this
good humored, unconventional, rol
licking giant, with his frank, free
bearing, his massive look of power
ajad adequacy, his radiating air of
jollity and zest. I recall that at the
fixst moment of our meeting and
this 1 think must be pretty near.y
every one's experience he made on
my mind and senses four distinct im
pressions. The first was that he was
immensely likeable. His heartiness,
his geniality, you felt at once, rang
true. There followed instantly the
conviction that here was a man you
could trust to the last. In his face,
his eyes, his whole manner of bear
ing, Mr. Taft carries the unmistak-
able stamp of an-engaging and an;a
unswerving integrity. He is one of
the most palpably honest men I have
ever oncountered. He is honest
even in his politics. Indeed, it Is
hardly too much to say that his poll
tics are comprised in saying straight
out precisely what he thinks. He is
almost as incapable as Lord Rose
berry himself, though irom widely
different causes, -of the distortions
of partisanship.
My second impression of Mr. Taft
as he sat down, munched i sand
wich, hoisted a huge leg over the
arm of his chair, and relieved the
waistcoat buttons of their normal
functions it was in his official room
In the war department was that,
whatever might be his shortcomings,
affectations "frills" pretentiousness
of any kind, was not among them. A
snapshot of Mr. Taft at that moment
would have made an admirable study
of democracy In undress. My third
and fourth impressions I call tham
the third and fourth, though they
came simultaneously with the others
were those of an unhurried, ever
ready instinct and capacity for deal
ing with men and things. Mr. Taft's
overwhelming physique alone seemed
somehow to gunrantee his efficiency.
One could not imagine the problem
that would not .give way beneath
such an Impact; and one could quite
easily concelvo him crashing through
all obstaclos and ontapgleinents with
the all conquering certainty of a
smiling, -patient, supremely human
s.team roller. This, Indeed, Is what
he lias beon doing for tho last ten
years.
BRYAN IX FOUR YEARS.
Chairman Mack's announcement
that "it Is not at all likely" that
Bryan will again bo tho candidate
does not satisfy the skeptical.
' It Is recalled by them that Henry
Clay wag nominated three times and
would have been uouilnnted the
rourth If It had not been for the
Xexfcan war, and the tremendous
iwpularlty of tho war heroes. Clay
had 97 votes even then. to Zachary
Taylor's 111. Will Brynn be the next
nominee? Tho Springfield, Maw.,
Republican, na Impartial as any east
ern newspaper could be, and as
friendly to Bryan,- nnswors:
In truth, this must bo written
town as among the politically un
certain things. Nothing now soems
to he more Improbable or more ridi
culous than another Bryan canvass
or tho prostdency, but If tho groat
mass of tho domocratic party as now
constituted domaud Bryan again, ns
lhoy did last summer, they will
rfoubtless succeed in gottlng him
again. Events and Bryan himsolf
will dlsposo of this Issue, and such
toucortod efforts as arc now bolug
agitated to crowd him asldo will bo
s clear waste or lauor,
If Bryan should want tho nomina
tion, as matters now stand, who
could successfully appear against

SOMETIMES.
The cards he held
Were very small,
Thy truly were
Not worth a call, .
And when he drew
His luck was tough;
You would haye thought"
He had enough.
But to his face
No quiver came,
He made a bluff
And won the game.
And that's 'the way
It is in life.
In winning fortune
Or a wife,
Play the game fair
And do your be3t,
And, If at times
You are distressed
Laugh and go to It
With a grin,
A bluff well played
Will often win.

Getting a husband may be an art;
but keeping him is a science requir

A bachelor lives a life of harrow

has the consolation of knowing that
nothing worse can happen to him.

V.'IirX EGGS ARE EGO..
At this time eggs are eggs, or wo.ll.
One might say they are more or
less so.
For sometimes when they're In 'he
shell
It seems to be a case of guess so.
However, eggs are eggs, we'll say,
Just for the sake of illustration,
And take no heod of what they may
Become from too long preservation
Well, eggs are eggs, a pleasant form
Of most nutritious human forage,
Unless, perchance, they get too warm
While they are waiting In cold
storage.
So oggs aro eggs, and wo delight
To have them served to us some
mornings
When they are just exactly, right,
And not passed out with well
meant warnings.
But ogss are eggs at fifty-five
Per doz nil guaranteed not shady.

Nobody elso.
But four years Is a long time In

years and many new mon may bo

not oven bo mentioned.

year by panther and othor 'ill
boasts and tho legislature will be
askod to pass an act placing a large
bounty on tho scalps of such animals.
It Is tlmo something should be done
to stop this terrible slaughter and

The Time Puzzls.
The clock In the parlor Is running

The ckek In the kitchen Is slow;
Tb otock in t-e hall Is at best but a toy.
And half of the time it won't go.
John's watch needs repairing, and Bill's
wasn't wound:
The clock In the nttlc won't chime:
We've no less than twenty timepieces
about.
And no one can tell us the time.
From grandfather's turnip you would not

Exactness to minute and dot.
But Ethel Miranda has one that Is new.
And hers should be rlsht on the spot.
It l3n't dependable nevertheless.
No more than the new dollar tick
That Chester received as a prise with n

And" thought he was turning a trick.
It's watches to right of us,
watches to

And clocks scattered round here
and
there.
Besides a sundial that stands In the yard.
Though broken and needing repair.
In beautiful cases most all of them tick
In plentiful rhythm and rhyme.
But no one Is1 certain that hi3 Is cosrect.
And no one can swear to the time.
To see that our meals are pulled off whn
they're due.
That no one may hick or complain.
Wo average up every timepiece In tho
house
And watch for tho eight o'clock train.
If It Is on time, we can feel we are saved.
But when It Is half an hour late
Wo turn to our watches, our clocks and
