is the best. If we knew to n certainty
that the season would BE excessively

Origin of a Famous Saving.

Carpenters Letter in Cleveland Leader.
John Randolph had had a discussion
with a man named Shelley, who was
one of his colleagues, and who had
been shoemaker in early life. Shelley
had made speech which excited Ran.
dolph's jealousy, and Randolph. in
replying to him, said that Shelley was
out of his sphere, and by way of illus
tration had told the story of the sculp-
tor Phidias This sculptor" said
Randolph, chad made a noted figure,
and having placed it on the sidewalk
he secured hiding place near by,
where, unobserved, he miaht hear the
criticisms OF those who passed upon
his statue. Among those who examin-
ed the marble was a shoemaker, and
this man criticised the sandals and
muttered over to himself as to where
they were wrong. After he bad gone
away Phidias came forth and examin-
ed the points that the shoemaker had
objected to and found that his criti-
cism was correct. He removed the
statue to his studio and remedied the
defects. The next day Phidias again
placed itupon the street and the shoe
maker again stopped before it. He
saw at once that the defects he had
noticed had been remedied, and he
now began to criticise very foolishly
other points about the statue. Phid-
las listened to him for a time, and
then came forth with a Latin phrase
which means let the shoemaker stick
to his last And So" concluded Ran
dolph, 1say in regard to my colleague.
