Apropos of the recent new edition of n Harper publication, a bookseller re lates the following: A lady entered hie atore and looked inquiringly around. "I want a copy of the Memoirs of Oliver Wendell Holmes." "I am aorry, madam, but we haven't It." "Oh, yea, you have," eald the lady, pleasantly. "My sister bought one here yerfterdsy, and you had a number of them. Memoirs of Oliver Wendell Holmes. She looked at him doubtfully. Don't you know Holmea, the man that fame alive again r The bookseller waa somewhat start led, not having heard of the genial autocrat's reappearance on the scene of hla early eiperlem.es. He waa wonder ing bow to get the evidently demented lady politely out of hie ehop, when ahe suddenly exclaimed, "There's the book now on that shelf. How odd that you ehouldn't know about your own books!" It waa the Memoirs of Hherlock Holmea, and the ruatomer carried It off In triumph, serenely unconacloua of her mistake.

The Larrabeee are one of those com forlable families who believe In allow tng things to take their own course. They do not call themselves mental dentists or don't worryltes or any thing else In particular. As Dick Lur rabe cheerfully expresses their work ing philosophy, "when any of us want to do anything we Just give things a rood atjirt and let them slide. Things always turn out all right." It was on this principle that they built their country house according to their own plans-whlch was success ful In Its ultimate result, although they forgot to build a chimney for the witch- en stove. dnughter, who was married two years. ago, made her wedding plans, vow fully refusing to burden her mind and grow nervous over a multitude of de tails. 81me the young couple from all Indications are still living happily the Impromptu change In the arrangements for the wedding, due to the fact that the best man misunderstood the time and arrived a day late, evidently was not a great catastrophe. When Dick and Dorothy Larrabee, home from college on a vacation, agreed a short time ago that It was proper for them to give a party they entered upon the nroKt with their usual Initiatory enthusiasm and eubaequent unconcern. "Mamma says we are going to have the paperhangera that week." remarked Dorothy, after they had agreed on the date, "so what shall we dor "Give It In the attic," aald Dick. Yes. that's what we'll do," said Dorothy, who was preparing to send the Invitations. 'And what shall we Invite them to what shall we call itr A roof-ruining.' suggested Dick. dromptly. "The very thing." agreed Dorothy readily, and began on her Invitations "But what ahall we have them dor reflected Dick. "What ahall we do to entertain them?" Dorothy chewed the handle of her nen minute. "I ll tell each one to bring hla or her pet animal," said she. "All rlaht" acquiesced Dick easily. "Did you ever hear of this kind of party before V 'No, I never did," said Dorothy, "but we'll Just wult and see how It turns out." During the following week Mrs. Lar- rstiee wits occupied with the paper- hangers, Dick was planning a golf tournament and Dorothy was so In volved In vailous pastimes that no one gave the approaching party much thought. Various recipients of Invita tions had telephoned to ask what It was going to be, and what they would be expected to do, but Dick and Dorothy evaded all these Inquiries. "How can we tell them what they are to do when we don't know our Sflves?" they asked, calmly. On the day of the party Dorothy tele- nhoned her order to the caterer's. In the afternoon she went to the matinee, and It was not until after dinner, as she started upstairs to dress, that she was seised with the usual preliminary trepidation of a hostess.

They ended with a society cir m which was such a success that the host and hostess were sought next day bv several enterprising society presl dents who wanted to have them repeat the unique and original entertainment for the benefit of local charities. "You see," said Dick, complacently, to Dorothy, "things always turn out rlsrht of their own accord If you Just let them alone. So what's the use of fussing and worrying about themT' "There Isn't any use," agreed Doro REPORTER IS KILLED Russians Fire on Two Newspawer Men In a Junk and Kill One Without Provocation.

It may be that falsehood often enough repeated becomes the truth. If ao, then the past and present con tention that the Democratic party dates back to the time of Jefferson Is worthy of belief. At the same time It is pro posed to present conclusive evidence to show that the party and party name to which Jefferson. Madison, Monroe and John Qulncy Adams belonged, and by whim and which they were elected. waa neither known aa the Democratic party nor seriously and generally called by that name. It Is not In any way our purpose to connect the early re publican party with that party whose birth dates from 1854 and whose his tory Is the main scope of this work. It Is proposed simply to present a few facts, which seem to us very material ly to refute the generally stated and believed assertion, that the democratic oarty dates prior to the admlnlstra tlon of Andrew Jackson, beginning with the year 1828. Previous to the year 1828, the term "democrat" had only been used in ae rlslon and contempt, as, for Instance. when Mrs. Washington said, finding a trace of dirt upon her wall after a re raniion; "It was no federalist; none but a filthy democrat -would mark a place on the wall with his good-for- nothing head In that manner.' ay Iron 8 Brass Works t&nafactGrers cf Iron, Steol, Brass and Bronze Castings.

Vladivostok, Monday, June 6. All Is quiet here. It can be stated that Port Arthur Is abundantly supplied with provisions and munitions of war. The bulk of supplies there now was sent from here before communication was cut off. Vladivostok was not weakened by sending the supplies and there Is plenty of everything remaining here except sugar. Kerosene Is also scarce among the civilians, but the quantity on hand Is adequate for the needs of the garrison. Trade with the Interior Is Improving. A train of 10 cars loaded with miscellaneous goods Is dis- natched daily. The railroad Is open and the traffic In ordinary freight Is considerable. Much excitement has been caused by the reported discovery of gold In the vicinity of the mouth of the Amur river. Several hundred pro spectors have already gone to the lo cality and others are starting. Mail advices from Liao Tang say that the ambulance train to arrive here on board among other wounded Is a Japanese prisoner whom General Kuronatkln took particular care to single out and compliment on the flght- imr Qualities of his compatriots. The general told the Japanese he would per sonally insure the forwarding of a let ter to his parents In Tokio.

There la a growing difficulty In se curing fine copies of the early Issues of United States stamps, says St Nicho las. The makers of these Issues were not required by the government to be careful In relation to the perforating of them. The paper was of a brittle quality, very, easily broken or Injured by careless handling. The postmasters who canceled these stamps cared for nothing except to thoroughly obllter ate them, so that they used unneces sary quantities of ink for this pur pose. All these things combined to make It difficult to find used copies of the early Issues of our country In fine condition. There were few collectors, and therefore not many of these stamps were saved in unused condition. The consequence of this state of things Is and will be an Increasing difficulty in securing these stamps In such condl tlon as is acceptable to collectors who are at all particular as to the looks of their albums. These many collectors take to AU the spaces in their albums until they can secure stamps of finer quality. This seems, on the whole, to be a mistake, for the possession of a PSlf S Few people know the comfort and beauty of perfect natural skin. Have you used Pears soap?

The desire to fill spaces that are va cant Is greater than to improve those that are not properly filled. The best thing for the young collector. If he wishes to have a really pleasing album, is to put nothing into its spaces but unused, lightly canceled, clean copies of the sumps which he selects. The fill ing of the album properly will be ap preciated within a few years by those who core more for United States stamps than for the issues of foreign countries, since the growing demand will make it even more difficult than It now is to obtain fine specimens.

When a boy tells me that he Just yearns for an education, that he longs to go to college, but that he has no one to help blm as other boys have, that If he had a rich father to send him to college, he could make something of himself, I know perfectly well that that boy does not yearn for an education. but that he would simply like to have it if it could be gotten without much effort He does not long for It as Lin coln did. When a boy, today, says that he can not go to college, though deaf, dumb and blind girls manage to do it I know that he has suoh a knack of oeelng difficulties that he will not only miss college, but will probably also miss most of what Is worth while in life.
