Of all the love aEairs in the world none can surpass the true love of the big boy for his mother. It is pure and noble, honorable in the highest degree to bOth. ' I do not mean mere- ly a duty of afieCtion. I mean alove which makes a boy gallant and court~ eous to his mother. saying to every- body plainly that he is fairly in love with her. Next to love of ahusband nothing so crowns a woman’s life with honor as this second love. this devotion of a son to her. And i never yet knew a boy to " turn out ” badly who began by falling in love with his mother. Any man may fall in love with a fresh faced girl, and the man who is gallant with the girl may cruelly neglect the worn and weary wife. But the boy who is a lover of his mother in her middle age is a true knight who will love his wife as much in the sere-leaved autumn as he did in the daisied springtimeâ€"Ex. Fall Wheat ........

The eyes of the newspaper world have been upon the News for the pasn few months. during which time several departures have been rnade “finch have given the paper a wide-spread reputation for enterprise and ori- ginality. This latest move is to place the News at the price of 81 CO a year by mail. Only a deep-founded belief in the future success of the News could lead the publishers to make such a reduction in price. But just as the dollar magazine has taken hold of the peOple, so we venture to predict. the news will secure~ a vast and ever-increasing circulation, based not only on the popular price at which it is sold, but mainly upon the intinser merits of the paper itself. We have made arrangements which will enable us to club the News with our own paper at a $1.85 a year in advance.

While in many cases we have half a dozen words expressing the same or prac- tically the same thing. there are, on the other hand, certain ideas that have no appropriate words to express them. Annoying Gaps In English Lannas'e Thnt Cause Inconveniences. The English language may fairly claim to he the most prolific in the world. Not content with its native riches, it possesses in a special degree the faculty of assimilating everything useful from other tongues. ancient and modern. It ought indeed to be the most perfect vehicle of thought in the world. and in some respects no doubt it is. In the words denoting relationship some notable gaps are found. The most glaring instance is the want of a word to distinguish between a male and female cousin. Other languages. such as French and Italian, have a sop- arate word for each, but in English some addition or explanation is re- quired in order to make it clear which sex is intended. Curious gaps occur here and there in our language if we look into it. The word "Show” expresses the idea of making to see, but there is no word for making to hearâ€"a phonograph, for ex- ample. “I took the phonograph to my friend and”â€" What? "Got him to listen to it” would probably be the in- elegant finish to the sentence. On the other hand, “audience” means those who hear and applies very well to those present in a lecture hall or con- cert room. But what of those who see a cricket match, for instance? “Spec- tators” is the nearest word, but it does not correspond exactly to “audience.” There is one deficiency in the lan- guage so awkward and irritating that even at this late hour it ought to be made good. Need it be said that refer- ence is made to indiscriminate use of the personal pronoun to denote either the person speaking or the person Spoken of? This may not he a defect peculiar to English, but it is one from which the ancient classical tongues are entirely free. “He said he had offered him money, Which he had declined.” would be quite comprehensible either in Greek or Lat- in, but in English it necessitates a num- ber of bracketed explanations which are positively annoying and destructive of grace and fluency.-â€"London An- swers. He Can Exist Only In Fiction, Never In Real Life. WIN nm or a t liCL \\ 110 is messed oth- erwise than in ru 5 falls into the po- lice not there are chronicled the adx en- tures of :1 “gentleman burglar.” THE GENTLEMAN BU RGLAR. Such a being is, of course, impossi- ble. He is a literary creation, like the “Invisible Man,” the Frankenstein monster, Kipling‘s Mowgli and the rest of the crew of prodigies that dwell within book covers. As a character in fiction the “gentle- man burglar" could he made plausible and picturesque. for when We get into the realm of fancy there is an implied contract that the reader shall accept the author’s premises and not bother about possibilities. To a man endowed with qualities of refinement and consideration of oth- ers and honorâ€"which are the attri- butes of a gentlemanâ€"burglary or other theft is impossible. The pride of such a man, his regard for his own opinion of himself, would prevent his sneak- ing into another man’s house and tak- ing his plate or his Wife’s jewelry. Then it must be remembered that the burglar is prepared to do murder to accomplish his robberies, and the idea of a gentleman committing murder for gain is too inconsistent even for fic- tion. A burglar is just a thiefâ€"about the meanest of thieves. A “gentleman burglar” is a contra- diction of terms, like a brave coward or a tall pygmy. He may be better dressed or his booty may be larger than that of most burglars, but when it is all summed up he is a thiefâ€"just a plain thiefâ€"with the moral code and impulses of a pickpocket or a card swindler or any other predatory crea- ture Whose natural home is a prison and Whose deserved and fitting rai- ment is a suit of stripes. She Got the Wool. “A young American girl, on her first trip to Italy, entered a shop in search of black darning wool,” says a writer in Harper’s Bazar. “She spoke no Ital- ian, the clerk spoke no English. She pantomimed darning a hole and point- ed to her stocking. The clerk brought White darning cotton. She showed that her stocking was black, and black darning cotton was produced. But she wanted wool. A long pause, then 'Ba-a!’ bleated the American girl. She got the wool.” A Natural Mistake. “1 was just telling our friend here, Molly, that it was storming on the day of our marriage.” “Well, well! I don’t know how I got so mixed up about itâ€"probably because It’s been storming ever since!” “Surely not, Hiram! The weather was perfectly lovely!” She Knew Her I)“.

A small party of gentlemen. most all of Whom had tinges of sporting procliv- ities in their blood, were discussing the subject of chicken fighting. An old farmer from Rappahannock county, ‘73., broke into the conversation. “Gentlemen,” said he, “in my time I have seen some hang up chicken fights. but the greatest fight I ever saw be- tween birds in all my born days was a contest between a bald eagle and a gray eagle near my old place in Rappa- hannock. “This fight took place on the bank of the river. I couldn’t fowet it if I liV ed to be as old as Methuse1111.1 VV as the only spectator and saw the struggle from start to finish. The bald eagle had caught a muskrat and was about to eat it for breakfast when the gray eagle soared down and attempted to rob the other one of its prey. Then commenced the combat, and. Lord. how the feathers flew! They fought with wings. beaks and talons, and I could hear the talons crack when they struck and tore each other. The sounds made by their wings as they buffeted one an- other were like explosions of musketry, While their screams and yells sounded demoniacal. The battle lasted fully fifteen minutes and wound up with a victory for old baldy, who drove the gray eagle away and then resumed his interrupted breakfast. “Oh, yes, there are a great many ea- gles up in my part of the state,” said the old agriculturist in reply to a ques- tion. “There are plenty of high rocks and lofty trees whereon they build their nests. We~farmers do not give them any latitude. however. Whenever one of these big birds is seen soaring about the poultry yard, or, in fact, any- where about the farm, it’s ‘Johnnie, get your gun.’ because it not infrequently happens that good sized chickens, young lambs or little pigs are carried away by them, so they're very unwelcome visit- ors.” This Expensive Sport “'11:: Begun In England In 1662. Thong vessels answering to the character of yachts were in use by royal personages from an early (lateâ€" Queen Elizabeth. for instance, had one built at Cowes, Isle of Wight, in 1588-â€" the word “yacht" was not used until the year 1060, When the Dutch present- ed a “jacht” named the \Iary to Charles 11., says the London Chroni- cle. In Evelyn's .‘viary, under Oct. 1, 10.61, occurs the entry. “I sailed this morning with his majesty in one of his y.chts, vessels not known among us till the Dutch East India company pre- sented that curious piece to the king. being very excellent sailing vessels.” Yacht racing commenced in 1662, when Charles 11., who had some yachts built for him by Sir Phineas Pett, wagered $500 that a yacht of his would eat a Dutch one owned by his brother, the Duke of York. afterward James II. hit the growth of yacht sailing was slow, and it is not until 1720 that an authentic record of a yacht club is found, in which year the Cork Harbor Water club, now known as the Royal Cork Yacht club, was formed. In 1812 a similar club. the Yacht club, was formed at Cowes by some fifty yachts- men. This club in 1820 attracted the notice of the Duke of Clarence. after- ward William IV., when its title was altered to the Royal Yacht squadron. Cowes. Fourteen years later William IV. presented the first royal cup to this club. But in 1851 only 500 yachts were in existence. Since the international yacht race of that year the increase in the number has been immense. In America. the Chronicle Says, “the sport may be said to have commenced in 1814. in which year the New York Yacht club was formed. and the his- tory of that club is practically the his- tory of American yachting.” “Do you mean to say,” asked the lawyer, “that you have made a living out of that store for one year?” Knew His Business. One of othe best known lawyers of Philadelphia had a case in court against a man who kept a cigar store opposite one of the lange hotels. The man had in some way broken the law. “Yes.” replied the man. “Gentlemen come from the hotel early in the morn- ing and ask for fifteen and twenty-five cent cigars. I hand them out five cent- ers. and they don’t know the difier- ence.” “Impossible,” said the lawyer. “Oh, no, it isn’t,” said the storekeep- er calmly. “I have done it on you sev- eral times." ' An Inquisitive Jury. “Gentlemen of the -jury,” said the judge as he concluded his charge, “if the evidence shows in'your minds that pneumonia even indirectly was the cause of the man’s death the prisoner cannot be convicted.” “The gentlemen of the jury, my lord,” he said, “desire information.” ' “On what point of evidence?” “None. your honor; but they want to know how to spell pneumonia.”â€"4Lo.no don Globe.
