1t was Chicago reporter who wrote !:
They fired two shots Mt him the first
killed him, but the second was not
fatal" A French writer, ard not an
Irish, made this bull "In the death
of Monsieur Thiers, France is widowed
of her noblest son." That was first
class bull made by an English Bishop,
who said of some one that he had re-
nounced the errors of Popery for those
of Professionalism. 1t was Kansas poll
tician who said of his party "that they
were prepared to burn their ships, and
with every sail unfurled steer boldly
out into the ocean of freedom" Mixed

the Revolution was rolling around and

The Work of the Thrifty.

The world has always been divided
into two classes-those who have saved,
and those who have spent the thrifty
and extravagant. The building of all the
houses, the mills, the bridges, and the
ships, and the accomplishment of all
other great works which have rendered
man civilized and happy, have been done
by the savers, the thrifty; and those who
have wasted their resources have always
been their slaves. 1t has been the law
of nature that this should be so.
