sIL4RIEs OF DISTRICT JUDGES.

No valid argument. Is or can be present
cd against the bill pending in the Mime
sofa House increasing the salaries of dis
trict judges to s., 900. The arguments in
its favor are so strong that we are not
surprised that no opposition is presented
to it. The strongest petition that ever
went to the legislature from st. Paul has
been sent in in behalf of this bill. 1t has
the signature of every member of the bar
and there is scarcely heavy taxpayer
whose name is not attached to the petit
ton.
The bench should be graccd by the
ablest lawyers in the State, butat present
there is not a single competent judge
who does not hold tire position at a per-
sonal and pecuniary sacrifice. Any
attorney who is competent to be a judge
can earn larger sum by the practice of
his profession than the salary attached to
the office. The general public interests
in the trial of offenders, and the individ-
ual interests of litigants are too great to
permit of offeringa premium for medium
talent by an unjustly low salary. No bill
with more merit than the pending one
will be presented to the legislature this

A NOyelist's Profits.

THE New York Times says: The $780,
600 received by Lord Beaconsfield for
his last novel, "Endymion," is believed
to represent the largest amount given in
England for any work of fiction. Scott
received $4,000 for "Woodstock, and
George Eliot the same amount for enid
dlemarch." Bulwer Lytton's earlier
novels, even when he was the rage, did
not bring him in more than from 81, 900
to 1000, but he subsequently received
handsome amounts for copyright of 8
collective edition. Lord BeacOnfeld's
earlier novels, Notwithstanding the sue
cess of the first, s'Vivian Grey" had q
very limited sale, and could be bought
for next to nothing within few months
of publication. They never became in
general request as components of a IL
brary, and in England were only read
with interest by persons familiar with
political and social life. 'Coningsby'
excited by far the most interest, and the
key which soon afterward appeared
was eagerly scrutinized. Probably
sEndymion" and "Lothair' have, to-
gether, produced more than double than
all the previous works of the author, al
belt very inferior to some of them. The
sCuriosities of Literature of the elder
Disraeli must have produced large
sum of money. 1t forms part of every
good collection of English books, and
has passed through many editions. Dick
ems left 100000, and q considerable
slice of this came from books, but it was
his readings" which made him affluent;
and so, too, with Thackray. For re-
ceipts from actual writing no one has
yet reached Scott, whose income for
several years ranged from f10,OO0 to
fl5, 00O, mainly drawn from this source.
Richardson was the first Enghshman
who made q really good thing out of
writing, and mainly because he was
publisher of his own novels. Probably
Miss Braddon's receipts from writing
rank among the first half-dozen highest
among writer's of fiction. Reynolds,
who wrote "The Mysteries of London"
and other works of low sensational type,
was, from pecuniary point of view, one
of the most successful of British authors.

YESTERDAY, during the sunny hour of
noon, q flock of about q hundred En-
glish sparrows gathered upon and near
q painted tin roof having protected
southern exposure, where GOOD deal
of water had collected in the broad, fiat
gutter. The temperature of the sur
rounding air was about six degrees be-
low the freezing point, and water was
evidently q scarce article, for the eager
little birds rushed for it almost furiously.
They dashed in by the dozen, fluttering
their wings and tails, and sending the
water in a shower of spray around. A
dozen new corners would be actually
fighting for precedence. As fast as they
finished their bath the birds went to the
upper slope of the roof, next the shelter
ing brick wall of higher part of the
building, and there spread themselves
out in the sun, like hens shutting in q
warm sand bath, spreading out their
feathers and turning themselves first on
one and then on the other side. One
sparrow evidently had his misgivings
about taking plunge into q winter
bath; he stood shivering at the edge of
the pool, like an undressed boy at the
rivers bank when he hesitates to take
his first plunge of the season. Some of
his more venturesome companions tried
to push the bird in. One seized him by
the tail and pulled; another futtered his
wings against him and tried to crowd
him in; and third tried to operate on
his head. It was in vain; that particu-
lar bird, though seemingly DESTROYS of q
bath, evidently mistrusted the tempera-
ture of the water-or his own sanitary
powers of resistance in these malarial
times, and he wouldn't bulge. His
companions, to the number of about
sixty, then gave it up ard crowded to-
gether in their selected position of shell
ter. as closely, seemingly, as swarming
bees, making pretty sight. The social
and gregarious characteristics of these
sparrows are strongly marked. But
they fail to find in this country, the
thatched cottage roofs, and the wheat
and barley ricks, in which they are so
naturally prone to burrow in English
rural districts. ford Conn., Times.

How to Grow Homely.

No ONE wishes to know that, you will
say. Well, but that most people do
grow homely it is impossible to DENY.
All love a frank. open countenance,
and welcome the owner of it; but how
few such there are. There are good
and sufficient reasons for these things,
some of which l propose to show you.
When you are angry. how wrinkled
your face gets, and what cross, disa-
greeable expression is in your eyes.
Every time you get angry little of that
look stays; you cannot get rid of it.
We have all seen people who look at
us openly and frankly when talking
with US, and others who will hardly let
their eyes meet ours; what is the rea-
son? When one has been telling what
is not quite the truth. he does not like
to look up for fear of being discovered.
and the next time it is little ssmore so,"
and when one is in the hab-
it of doing things he is ashamed
in the eye if he can help it. There
is not surer way to grow homelY.
Another way is, every time you hear
it said that some one of your acquaint-
ances has been doing something wrong,
do not stop to know that it is so, nor
think whether you haven't done just
such thing yourself sometime, or
something just as bad, but 60 right
away and tell every one you meet all
about it. And if you cannot remember
just how it was told you, tell it some
way, however you happen to think it
might have been. This will give your
countenance an expression very spite
full and malicious way cross old
maids are said to look.
A sure way to make your mouth
homely and to take all the dimples from
your cheeks, is to get angry and scold
great deal, very often. using words you
would not like certain of your friends to
hear you say.
BY using the same means you can
make your voice very harsh and unpleas-

How q W0man's Curiosity Melted Her
81, 1000.

ONE time the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company wanted q good site for the To-
cation of its great shops. It found the
place it wanted on the east side of the
Allegheny Mountains, on q beautiful
plateau. That was just forty years ago.
There were not many people living on
that plateau in 1910. One daring pio-
neer and his family were monarchs of
the unbroken forest that covered it, and
three log huts hidden away in the
shadowy recesses of that forest were all
the indications of civilization to be found
there. The railway company sent out
an agent to buy the whole plateau, with
written instructions to pay $4,000 if
necessary. The agent came, he found
the pioneer, he put up at his unpreten-
tious log-hut, he told him all the new
stories from the city, he wrought him
into a good humor, and the settler finally
made ready to sell at $4,000, consider.
ing himself made man at that. But
while he was talking business his good
wife was Strengthening up the strangers
room. She found package of papers;
womanly curiosity prompted her to open
the unsealed envelope; she read the
agents instructions. She called her
husband into the kitchen in q very few
moments, and she did what nine women
of every ten do for their husbands; she
made more money for him than he ever
dreamed he would be worth: more than
he ever could have made if he hadn't
had wife. When the settler returned
he told the agent that real estate had
picked up little during the past ten
minutes, and he couldn't think of taking
less than $4,000 for his claim. There
was nothing else to be done: swearing
wouldn't help the matter. Four thou
sand dollars of it belonging to the wom-
an, but l never heard whether she got il
or not. Ten years later the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad began building its shops
on the plateau; now tie city of Altoona
has upwards of 10000 inhabitants, three
or four newspapers, seventeen churches,
as many schools, and one convent, the
largest railroad shops in American

THIRTY years ago Michigan people
were frank and truthful set. Strangers
could come here and trade horses with
their eyes shut, and breach of promise
cases were unknown. Folks meant
what they said, and when they gave
their word stuck to it.
Exactly thirty years ago this month q
widower from New York State appeared
in Lansing on business. That same
business carried him over to De Witt,
eight miles away. While en- route he
stopped at a log farmhouse to warm his
cold fingers He was warmly welcomed

"No. If you'll keep an eye on my

"Well, there's nothing stuck up or
no as soon as she looks you over. If
you want her, don't be afraid to say So"
The stranger heard the sound of her
ak and followed it. He found her just
as the tree was ready to fall. She was
q stout, good looking girl, swinging an
Ak like man, and in two minutes he
had decided to say:
"Susie, I'm widower from New
York State; I'm 80 years old, have one
child, own q good farm, and want a
wife. Will you 60 back home with
me?'
She leaned on the ak and looked at
him for half minute, and then replied:
"Can't say for certain. Just wait till
I get these coons off my mind"
She sent the tree crashing to earth,
and with his help killed five coons,
which were slowed away in a hollow.
"Well, what do you say?" he asked,
as the last coon stopped kicking.

by the time you get back from De Witt
I'll have these pelts off and tackled up
and be ready for the preacher!"
He returned to the house, told the old
folks that he should bring preacher
back with him, and at dusk that evening
the twain were married. Hardly an
hour had been wasted in counting, and
yet he took home one of the best girls in
the State of Michigan.-Detroit Free
