The joy of the Republicans of Missouri over the recent overthrow of the Democratic machine in that state is indicated in the note of triumph sounded by the St. Louis Republic, which says. All hail, Republican Missouri. It is no longer poor old Missouri, but a state that stands erect with its face to the light and marching in com pany with New York, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana. Missouri has cut loose from Bour bonism and political pertrification. It has given its electoral vote to the Republican column, elected a legislature that is Republican on joint ballot and chosen Republican state officers with the exeeption of one who slipped in on false pre tenses with the assistance of a number of foolish Republican votes. Missouri will now boom just as the markets are booming and the name of the United States is booming the world over. The great victory in this state was gained over the crookedness of one of the most powerful machines ever organized and one that held control for a third of a century. It is a grand achievement, and won by indomitable Missouri Re publicans, whom no defeat, not oven thirty years of it, could dis hearten.

"I can tell 111 a minute simply lit looking at a man whether he shaves himself or is shaved by a barber," salt the wielder of the razor ami brush "No, It Isn't a question of cleanliness nor yet a question of hacking the face There is no reason why a man whe ia accustomed to shaving himsell shouldn't make as clean a Job of it as the average barber. And yet 1 car spot him every time. See that little lock of hair that grows down the sliU of the face just In front of the ear' Well, when a man is shaved by a bar ber those? two locks don't vary In length more than a sixteenth of ai: inch. The man who shaves himself, on the other hand, is invariably lop •liletl. lie always begins to shave higher up on the left side of the face than on the right side, as a conse quence of which one side of the face looks longer than the other. No, 1 don't know that I can explain this phenomenon. I only know that the condition exists." Philadelphia Rec ord. Died of Superstition. Princess Llkelike, daughter of Ka paaken and mother of Princess Kalu lanl, died on Feb. 3, 1887. She had nol been seriously 111, but a lava flow froii the great volcano Kllauen, In Hawaii which occurred a few days before hei death was to her mind a sure sign thai a chleftalness was required by the goddess Pele, that heartless old deity suggested to the children of nature lr the ages of volcanic terrors. So firm were Llkellke's convictions that the wrath of the furious Pele had to be appeased by her death that she lost heart and never rallied. The nlglit be fore her death there was a halo around the moon, and when she saw It she abandoned all hope and speedily died A few years afterward Llkihiku heard that he was being prayed to death by an enemy, aided by a sorcerer, a dead ly method of warfare, so he simply lay down and died of despair. He Almont Suoeeeilod. 11l a ma'-Tasine article on Max von Pettenkofer, who has been called tin founder of scientific hygiene and next to Humboldt the most popular of all German naturalists. Max <iruber tells a story of the professor's absentmind edness. He lost a fortune in umbrel las, seldom bringing back what lie had taken away. Once, however, he made a trip as far as England and was very proud of having actually succeeded in bringing back his umbrella to tier many. At Augsburg he stopped on business, but sent a telegram reading. "At l> o'clock I return with my um brella." He did return at ti o'clock, but as he entered his house in Munich he saw to his dismay that he had no um brella. He had left it at the telegraph station. Hen Serpent*. Sea serpents date back to the days of Aristotle, who wrote: "The serpents of Libya are of enormous size. Naviga tors along the coast report having seen a great quantity of bones of oxen, which they believe without doubt tc have been devoured by the serpents. These serpents pursued them (the sen men) when they left the shore and up set one of their triremes." Olaus Magnus wrote in the middle ages of a sea serpent -00 feet long and 20 feet thick which haunted rocks and caves near the seacoast, the old writer adding, "And he puts up his head on high like a pillar and catcheth away men, and he devours them." Imitative Anlmalx. Some animals have wonderful pow ers of imitation. Dogs brought up in the company of cats have been known to acquire the trick of licking the paws and then washing the face. When a cat has been taught to sit up for her food her kittens have been known tc Imitate her action. Darwin tells of a cat that was In the habit of putting her paw into the mouth of a narrow milk pitcher every time she got the chance and then licking the cream od her paw. Her kittens soon learned the same trick. Ilia Conwelenee. Fierce as lie was, the Infamous Chief Justice Jeffreys did not always escape the sting of a repartee. He went to a country assize once where an old man with a great beard came to give evidence, but had not the good fortune to please the Judge, so he quarreled with his beard and said, "If your conscience is as large as your beard you'll swear anything." The old blade was nettled and briskly returned "My lord, if you go about measuring consciences by beards your lordship has none." Why IN It F "Did you ever notice," said an ob servant young man, "that men as a rule run down the licels of their shoes on the outside, while women run them down on the inside?" lie was asked tc txplain the reason, but said he had no reason, as he only mentioned It as be ing singular, with no means of expla nation.

One can see from ok Dutch pie til res that these have not va ried for the last 200 years. One most interesting place Is the island of Mar , ken, a tongue of land on the margin ol the Zuyder Zee, which can well be in spected in a couple of hours, it is s< little above the sen level that the clus ters of houses or tiny villages arc built on mounds connected by bridges and nearly every little house has ltf own little moat and Its own little boat —everything except the people is on 8 diminutive scale In Holland—moored near the door so as to be handy Ir ease of flood. The houses, with the ex ceptlon of the church and the clergy man's house, are built of wood on higl: idles. They are none of them very old as the place has often been flooded and burned. In winter Marken is ofter. under water, and the Inhabitants us« boats to pnss from one village to an other. The cottages, which are painted blue, green or black, with pointed ga bles, and roofed with red tiles, are al! exactly alike and possess only a ground floor built on high piles. A Novel Time Glan*. "During a trip which I took through the West Indies several years ago,'' said a traveler, "I saw a sight In one of the villages whleh brought the old proverb, 'Necessity Is the mother of invention,' forcibly to my mind. In the front of one of the houses on a veranda stood a sentry whose business it was to keep the time for the village by means of a primitive sandglass. Two bottles were lirmly tied together mouth to mouth, and flxed In a wooden frame, made to stand in reversible po sitions. "A quantity of Mack sand ran from one bottle into the other In just half au hour, and when the upper bottle was empty the frame was reversed. Twelve short sticks marked with notches front 1 to 12 were hung upon a string, and a hook was placed between the stick bearing the number of notches corre sponding to the hour last struck at .1 the one to be struck next. The sentry announced the time by striking the hours on a large gong." bvJn rii| ,j| ' E needn't hesitate to use IjjijL ill Lucas Paints yil US Results are the best thing al)Otit Bi|[ j| them.
