"How much of a cash settlement do you expect?" "Nossing, sare." "What! How much will I have to pay for your poker debts?" "Nossing, sare. Ido not gamble." "How much will I have to pay to rebuild your castle?" "Nossing, sare. It is in tine repair." "But there must be some expense for me. Out with it!" "No, sare; nossing. I simply love your daughter and she loves me, and we wish to be married. Is not zat enough? Is it not enough to ask yon to give me your daughter wizzout your expecting to"— "Come to my arms!" exclaimed the American father and tried to fall upon the neck of the delighted count. But he awoke on the floor, having tumbled from his bed as a finish to hie amazing dream.—Judge. TO ENTER "SOCIETY." You must Have Treasure, Tempera ment and Tact. To enter paradise you had to be good and you bad to be dead. To enter society you do not have to be either. On the contrary, though what you do have to lie is harder to tell than it is to get there. But certain requisites may be mentioned. These are treasure, temperament and tact. Treasure, which is the basis of all scrumptiousness, speaks for itself. Temperament is more complex. Tem perament is the art of holding your own on the subject of nothing at all with experts who have devoted their lives to tiie subject. •That is clearly abnormal. Tact, while less unnatural, is more abstruse. Tact is the ability to put your vibrations into harmony with those of others about you. As pirants may be rich, righteous and ready, yet if they lack that ability, whatever their efforts, they are no where. If they possess it, then, though they be nobodies, they have only to choose where they want togo and get there—generally speaking, that Is, and provided they are not in a hurry. Taste is very mercantile, besides being unbecoming.—Edgar Salt us in Broad way Magazine. A Memory Test. A professor of mnemonics had gone to lecture at or near Canterbury. After the lecture was finished he had to wait for his London train. It was a most comfortless day, and he re tired to an inn for shelter and refresh ment. To pass the time he began to exhibit liis feats of memory to the yokels In the inn parlor, and one and all were thunderstruck except the waiter. There is always one skeptic in every communion, whether of saints or sinners. Do what he would ho could not mitigate the acrid smile of aeid Incredulity of that glorified potman! In the midst of one of his most difficult feats the whistle sound ed of the "only train to London to night!" and he rushed off to catch it lie caught it at the station, and hi; reputation caught it In the inn parlor for the waiter—coming in with some ordered refreshments and finding him gone—pointed to the corner where he had been sitting and exclaimed, "Sil ly 'unibug, lie's forgot his umbrella!" The Rich Turkish Beggar. Beggars are never suppressed in Tur key. The story is told (and they say it is true) about an American lady who by mistake gave a beggar of Constantino ple a gold piece. The man had left his post when she returned, but one of his colleagues told her where lie "resided." It was a fine house, and at the door was a servant, who politely informed the lady that "my master is dressing, lie will be down soon." And then the well groomed beggar, dressed for din ner, appeared and gladly returned the gold piece, exclaiming in the mean while that such mistakes were highly embarrassing.—"Charities and Com mons." Force of Storm Waves. The average storm wave is thirty feel in height. The highest storm waves ever measured were between forty-four and forty-eight feet high. The gigantic force of storm waves is shown by the fact that at Skerryvore lighthouse, off the west coast of Scot land, a mass of rock weighing five and a half tons was once hurled to a height of seventy-two feet above the sea lev el, while a mass weighing thirteen and a half tons was torn from a cliff seven ty-four feet high. Pall Mall Gazette. Explained at Last. "The late I)r. Morgan Dix," said a clergyman of New York, "had a dt-01l way of lightening grave subjects with little humorous asides. Once I heard him addressing a graduating class at a medical school. He began in this way: " 'Physiologists tell us, gentlemen, that the older a man grows the smaller his brain becomes. This explains why the old man knows nothing and the young one everything.' " Good Advice. Father (solemnly)— This thrashing is going to hurt me more than you, Napo leon.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1908. The Late Ex-President Cleveland on Republican Party. Just before Ex-President Cleveland's death lie planned the writing of three articles on the presidential campaign of 1908. The first article was publish I ed in the Philadelphia Ledger last <. Sunday. It is doubtful if he wrote the other articles, none being found. In this first paper the late President said: "The Republican Party is certain to move onto a safe victory, sustained by the popular support of Reforms. He says of Judge Taft, the Republican nominee: "There is fear on my part of being misunderstood in what I am about to say, but surely the fair-minded man must realize when he considers my at titude toward my own party, all now a matter of immutable record, that it is prompted by a sense of simple fairness. Personally and officially I have had the opportunity of knowing many things concerning Mr. Taft that were not a matter of general knowledge, and with a keen interest I have watched his large share in the conduct of our na tional affairs in very recent years. His excellence as a Federal Judge in Cin cinati is something not to be under estimated or overemphasized, for should he come to the presidential cbair the qualities which made him a Judge of high ability, which I know him to have been, will be the most needful to him as President of the United States. His high ideas of hon esty and of relative justice, his great capacity tor severe labor and his hum orous wisdom in the face of the serious problem are attributes equally valuable and commendatory to a people seek ing him in whom they may repose the trust of their collective interests while they turn their increased attention to their pressing individual demands. Whatever may be said as to the events of the past ten years which are alleged to have made us a world power, there remains small opportun ity for controversy over the essential features of our conduct in the face of the problems brought to face us by those happenings. Now, being self contained and compact in our politi cal geography and federated in our common interests whenever our do minion was established, we have be come extended and have increased the span of the arch of our structure, and must undertake to equate the widely different concerns of individuals and communities antithetical as to race, traditions and modes of life and anti podal as to location on the face of the earth. Dwelling 011 the unwisdom of prematurely acquiring colonies is fatu ous. The national duty is neither to help those colonies for their exploita tion nor to cast them off to void the burden of their responsibilities. The questions involved are no more matters to be harrowed through the mill of politics than is the policy of the Pan ama Canal something to be stamped either Republican or Democratic. HAS IMPORTANT QUALIFICATIONS. These questions are fruitful of trouble and perturbation, and the primary re quisite of the man or men who must deal with them is an abundant know lege of the people of the out-lying do main. That Mr. Taft is possessed of this knowledge as is no other man in the country is hardly to be denied; granted that he has had extraordinary opportunities, he has shown himself able to improve those opportunities in a manner which it is not extravagant to say will be his broadest claim so far to enduring fame when the acute visual distortion of the present and opportune shall have given place to the inexor able perspective of history in which the relative values of public deeds to public duties are completely clarified and announced to posterity. The misery and misfortune which an ignor j ant or obstinate administrator, no i matter how high the ethical standard I of his motives, could entail upon our wards of the Pacific and Caribbean are appalling to contemplate; were his administration to be at fault in any other particular, in those things Mr. Taft'a record shows him to be entirely dependable."

Old Time Drunkenness. In reviewing "The Early Married Life of Maria Josepha, Lady Stanley," the London Spectator comments on the light in which drunkenness was re garded at the beginning of the nine teenth century. There was a christen ing of twins and rejoicing among the neighbors, tenants and laborers. "All the guests," says Maria, "wero as drunk as I ever had the pleasure of Beeing any one." Among the laborers, however, "that extent of intoxication was not reached which causes men to be swine." Lady Sheffield, who received this ac count of the festivities, replies: "I would have given a great deal to be present. There Is nothing I love so much as such sort of festivities, where one has the satisfaction of knowing that one makes one's friends happy as well as drunk." In London, she de clares, "when you give a ball you af front many people, please a few, make many drunk and yourself miserable." Clay and the Salary Grab. "Qninn," said an old member one day,"l heard you worrying about the mileage. Did you ever hear the story of Clay and the salary grab?" "No," I replied. "When Clay was speaker," he con tinued, "along about 1810, the crowd raised their salaries to $1,500 a year. There was a great howl all over the country, and when Clay reached home in Kentucky he found old one armed John Pope, a Federalist, ont after his scalp to beat the band and all the Clay adherents ominously silent. Worried and anxious, Clay sought out his old barber, who had always been enthusi astic in his advocacy and who hap pened to be an Irishman. 'I trust I may count 011 your hearty support, as usual?' Clay asked. 'Faith, Mr. Clay,' said the Irish barber, 'I think I shall vote at tills time for the man who can get but one hand into the treasury.'" —Success Magazine. Needed a Big Dose. The president of the Waiters' club of New York in a recent argument on tip ping said to his opponent sharply: "Your reply is altogether beside the point and irrelevant. It reminds me of a woman's reply in a German court. This woman was accused of poisoning her husband. The prosecuting attor ney said to her: " 'You have heard the evidence. The body contained enough arsenic to kill ten persons. What have you to say?' " 'My husband,' the woman answer ed. 'was a big eater.' " _ A Sure-Enough Knocker. A. C. Goodwin, of Reidsville, M.
