too facilitating for queries. But the onserV-
ant eve takes in what it sees unconsclously,
and makes record, in automatic way, OF
the pictures which are caught upon its tell
tale retina. Also the other senses, notably
the nose, take cognizance of things unusual
or ofFensive-as a smudge of old rags and
packing straw and waste paper, for example.
How the pyroligneous smoke penetrates the
nasal organ, shrinking up the lachrymose
ducts and setting the eyes to weeping the
involuntary tears of affection. Thus are our
feelings smoked out of us, as it were, and we
seem comfortless it the midst of speeches.
woe when in fact it is of the nose, nosey, and
what seems heart breaking sorrow is merely
a tingling sensation in the nostrils, and our
audible swearing is proof of our yet continued
power of speech. E. A Constant Reader sug-
gests that the Queriest do justice to the
unfortunate who have not been to the Lake,
this season. We suppose there are not less
than three or four thousand people who have
visited ard will visit the Lake this year.
Now there are not less than l ,424 600, 900
people On this earth of ours. Any arlthma-
tician of ordinary dimensions can make out
from the figures presented taking our
estimate OF the number of Lake visitors) just
how many of the peoples of this terrestrial
globe will not visit that attractive sheet of

we are conscious of a short allowance of
commiseration to go round, and so we do
not attempt the Herculean task OF being
sorry enough to satisfy any considerable num-
Der of these pitiable masses and millions of
Laksless humanity To be sympathetic with
those who are Immediately about us is to do
injustice to the weeping multitudes at the
antipodes, and we must be just, even as
fair and impartial barber is just and tell each
to await his turn and not to be impatient or
greedy. The Lake will keep. Won Schmidt
will be forgotten dust while yet these limpld
waters continue to reflect the SKI and the
grim mountain sides and the trees and the
everlasting cliffs and the stars and the moon
and the rising and the setting sun. So, do
not bewail your fate too loudly dear readers |
of the MORNING APPEvL, but, rejecting upon |
the hundreds of millions of humanity that |
share your misfortune wrap about you the |
grief-proof cloak Of self-assurance and stay |
patiently where you are and sweat it out!
Indeed. some men have died happy without
ever having seen The Lake at all; but that
was in the age of iron when men enjoyed
suffering, Just as modern martyrs enjoy |
