It Is questionable whether the real
kireek woman of lliat Immortal epoch
when sculpture meant something more
than a decorative end to an architectu
ral means possessed the chaste loveli

remnants left to us. It lias ever been
tbe whlui of nrtlsts to work away from
the physical facts of their models to
ward the Ideals of their fancy. The
sculptor Is usually a proudly careless
historian and but a poor rcorter. All
Greek sculpture doubtless Is a highly
glorified record of (rue Greek eth
nology; but, grunting such n woman
as, say, the Venus de Mllo did exist
In.. til her bodily and facial perfection,
sue would meet with but cold reception
at tbe bands of our critics of feminini

ciates would, I nm certain, adjudgo the
classic lady a frump. Ideals change

There Is nothing which will add so
much to one's power as tbe conscious
ness of being absolutely sincere, genu

you are conscious that yon are not
what you pretend to be that you are
really a very different person from
what tbe world regards you you are
not strong. There Is a restraint, a per

your energy and warps your conduct
If there Is a mote at the bottom of

squarely In the face. Your vision Is
not clear. Everybody sees that you
are not transparent There Is a cloudi

All That Was Left
A young married couple took lata
train for Washington, Intending to
spend their honeymoon lu rambling
through the corridors of tbo capltol,
Congressional library mid other ptibllu
buildings. The porter was awakening
passengers ut mi uutiHuitlly early hour
(hat morning, nnd long before tbo
train reached Baltimore ho had them
p. Tho groom told bis bride thnt he
tvould leave his coat mid hat mid re
tire to (he smoking compartment of
Ihe train. Ho went out nnd met a
friend, who asked him back Into an
other car lit order that he might meet
a friend of his. Soon the conductor be
gan making bis rounds and taking tip
tickets. The young lulilu referred him 1
to the smoking apartment, where, sho
said, her husband would bo found. A
moment later the conductor returned 1
and Informed her politely that tho
bridegroom wits not to be found. The
oilier piiHHengers wero Klnrtlcd by n
loud shriek. j
"My Inmbaud! Oh, my husband!"
"Don't be alarmed, mndiiiu," said (he
conductor reassuringly. "Nothing has
happened to your husband. Ho Is
probably In llaltlmorc. Wo dropped ,
two sleepers nt that iiolnt." And that
was why friends of tho young couplo
who went to tho Hint Ion lit Washington
to meet them saw only tho bride cling
ing to tin overcoat mid u silk bat and
walling, "This Is nil (hero Is left of
him!"
What the Lunatio Thought.
A clergyman wns suddenly railed
upon, away from homo, to preach nt a
lunatic asylum, and ho decided tomnko
use of a favorite missionary sermon of
his.
After the service, as the clergyman
wns leaving tho chnpnl, ono of tho In
mutes stepped up to him and said:
"That was a good sermon yon gave
us, sir."
Tho clergyman was pleased and re
plied: "I am glad you liked It. What part
In It especially Interested you?"
"Whero you told about tho tool hers
throwing their Infants Into tho Ganges,"
"Yes," said the clergyman, "that Is
very sad, but It Is true, mid wo must
do our utmost to enlighten those un
happy people, that they may turn from
tbe error of their way."
"Yes, Indeed," continued tbe lunatic,
"wo must. And nil the time yon were
preaching I wondered why your moth,
er hadn't thrown you Into the river
when you were small." London Ex

This Incident happened several years
ago: One of the big natlonul banks In
New York was clearing for a certain
other bank that was In trouble, nnd
every day tbe president of tbe clearing
house bank would certify n couple of
million dollars' worth of checks for tho
other. Finally tbepnylng tellercalledhls
attention to the fact thnt he was taking
a mighty long chance, but the president
paid no attention to the bint. Then the
teller Informed the clearing house of
the situation, and the president was
called to book.
"Did my paying teller tell you that?"
demanded the president.
"He did," replied the chairman of the
clearing house committee.
"I shall discbarge him at once," de
clared the president, bristling up with
Indignation.
"You do and we'll close your bank
tomorrow," calmly replied tho chair
man. Needless to say, the teller was not
discharged. New York Globe.
