Was the Keynote of tha
Poct’a Clmrneter.
Mine, de Navarro gives some charm
ing pictures of Longfellow in “A Few
Memories.” She says that every con
versation witli him led to some good
result. His first advice to her was:
“See some good picture—in nature if
possible, or on canvas—hear a page of
the best music or read a great poem
daily. You will always find a free half
hour for one or the other, and at the
end of the year yonr mind will shine
with such an accumulation of jewels
ns to astonish even yourself.”
The poet was fond of a good, amus
ing story and lind many to tell out of
his own experience. He was particu
larly delighted at the ingenuity of an
enterprising vender of ‘patent medicine
who. vaunting tile “marvelous effects”
of his drug, no doubt ill the hope of in
spiring the poet, invited Him to write
a verse for the label, promising him a
percentage ou each bottle and a free
use of the medicine for himself and
family.
On one of his birthdays he was as
tonished at seeing a wagon containing
a pinuo drive np to his-house, followed
by a strange young lady in a carriage.
The young lady informed the house
keeper that she wished the piano to lie
put in a room where it would “sound
well,” as she had composed a piece of
music in honor of the poet’s birthday
and meant to play it to him on her own
instrument.
Longfellow was a great lover of mu
sic, and Wagner appealed to him
strongly. We heard several operas to
gether in Boston after my engagement
there. He generally arrived before us,
armed with flowers and full of delight
ful anticipations. On one of these occa
sions some one sent a magnificent bou-
quet to our box. Not knowing the do
nor. I did not take it up. He insisted
on my doing so.
“Put down my simple ones,” he said,
“and take up these beautiful flowers.
It will gratify the giver, who is no
doubt in the house. Try never to miss
an opportunity of giving pleasure. It
will make you happier and better.”
Kindness was the keynote of hia
character. No ineonvenienee to him
self was too great If a good tarn to
any one was at the end of it

Tradition Says Franklin Planted tiie
First One In This Country. -
Every housewife Is supposed to know
how to handle a broom, but it is safe
to say that not one in ten has any
clear idea of what her sweeping utensil
is made of or how it is made’or where
the materia] came from. Brooms are
made from the heads or brushes of
the broom core, a first cousin to our
common field corn. And in tills con
nection is told a very pleasant little
fairy story concerning Benjamin
Franklin. “Poor Richard,” by the
way, seems to have been about the
biggest jack of all trades that ever
helped the United States to become the
richest and mo^t powerful nation of
the world. If this story is true, he is
tiie patron saint of the housewife and
the broommaker, as well as a kite-
flier, lightning catcher, printer, pub
lisher, editor, author, philosopher,
statesman and other things “too nu
merous to mention.”
Broom corn first grew In India. From
there it was carried to Europe. The
story goes that Dr. Franklin was ex
amining a whisk broom that had been
brought ever from England in the
days before we had any broom corn of
onr own. He found a single seed on
the broom, picked It off,- planted it and
raised a stalk of corn from Which Is
descended, so to speak, all of the
broom corn of the United States.
However this may be, broom corn
grows much like its first cousin, our
maize, which originated here. The
head is larger, however, and the seeds
grow on -the head instead of in ears.
The heads are cut off, leaving about
six indies of stalk, and tiie seeds are
scraped off by a machine, which does
a clean job and does not Injure the pan
icles. The seeds are valuable in a
way. They are fed to horses and poul
try and ground into meal for cattle.
In the making of the brooms, the corn
Is put around a handle of basswood
or soft maple turned in a lathe. Each
layer Is wound tight with twine or
wire until the desired size is attained.
The broom is then pressed out fiat and
sewed to keep it in that shape. Whisk
brooms are made in the same way.—

“The men’s guns stood at that end of
the tent, butts resting on a piece of

was when I was in my teens. I sat

envelope of. light aronnd me. I was
picked up insensible and those who
first saw me say that smoke issued
from my mouth and nose. All thought
I was dead, but I slowly recovered and
soon seemed to be as well as before the

His ItcnHon For Declining; n Drink
In tiie Knrly !)ny» at Kimberley.
In connection with the foundation of
Cecil Rhodes* colossal wealth, there is
a story told by an old fellow miner,
himself lately a colonial minister of
finance, which illustrates at least one
trait in the character of the great
South African financier and politician.
During tho early days of the Kim
berley diggings it was the custom
when a miner found a particularly flue
gem to invite those about him to the
ceremony of “wetting the stone”—i. e.,
drinking champagne at the finder’s
expense, with the idea that it would
bring good luck in tin.* discovery of
another treasure. In the adjoining
claim to that first taken up by Mr.
Rhodes, in the very center of the crater
holding tiie precious blue dirt, this in
vitation had upon a certain occasion
gone forth, and the men were going
their way up to the hotel when it was
noticed that Rhodes stood aloof.
“Hello! Come on Rhodes!” shouted
the lucky finder of the gem. “Aren’t
you coming up to ‘wet the stone’ for
good luck?” . To which, however. Cecil
Rhodes only shook his head.
“I say, come on. there’s a good fel
low,” persisted his neighbor.
“What are you going to do?” asked
Rhodes, looking up.
“Wet the stone with champagne, of
course.”
“Well,” replied the future magnate,
decisively, “I did not come out here to
drink champagne, but to make money.”
and then went on with his work.
That Mr. Rhodes has succeeded in
that purpose, probably beyond all
flights of his imagination, is now a
matter of history.—New York Sun.

There came to a young doctor an un
commonly unclean infant, borne in the
arms of a mother whose face showed
the same abhorrence of soap. Looking
down upon the child for a moment, the
doctor solemnly said:
“It seems to be suffering from ‘hydro
pathic hydrophobia.* ”
“Oh, doctor, is it as bad as that?”
cried the mother; “That’s a big sick
ness fdr such a mite. Whatever shall
I do for the child?”
“Wash its face, madam,” replied the
doctor. “The disease will go off with'
the dirt.”
'“Wash its face—wash its face, in
deed!” exclaimed the mother, losing
her temper. “What next. I’d like to
know!”
“Wash your own. madam—wash yonr
