"Macaulay," said a talker whose con-
versation ranged over three generations,
''did not talk, he lectured. He chose his
subject, it mattered little what, and he
delivered discourse on it; poured out
masses Of facts, or arguments, of his
torical Illustration. He was not witty,
he had no humor, he was not a critic, as
he himself confessed, he was devoid of
imaginative or poetic faculty. But he
had tho most prodigious memory ever
possessed by human being, and on this
he drew, without stint and without end. ;"
People in those days listened to him, his
authority was established, his audience
docilc, nobody interrupted, controversy
was out of the question. "Now," con-
tinued the witness, mo dinner table
would stand it; he would be stopped,
contradicted, his long stories vetoed; no
monopoly or monopolist is tolerated. II

Do We Really Save Time?

The faster we go the faster we want to
go. We go as fast in four hours today
as our forefashers went in forty-eight,
and yet railroad travelling is so slow and
such q waste of time. 1t is only qucs-
ton Of time, however, when railroad
trains will carry passengers SO fast that
sensible folks will take to stage riding
just to sec something Of the world they
1.-Two in. Time is really not SO much Of
an object as people believe. We don't
save much time by all our modern appli.
anccs after all, for we gcA there so early
we have to waste it in some other way.
The only people who really gain by cable
cars and things arc youngsters who are
counting. Husbands don't want to get
home, and even the young fellow in love
stops to have another drink because the
cars go every two minutes. We get
everywhere 50 easily now that there is
no fun in going anywhere. - San Fran

Japanese Love of Flowers.

The love for flowers is innate in every
Japanese, and tie poor coolie, who draws
one for miles in q jinrickisl1a, is as en-
thusiastic and as deeply stirred over a
flower show as one of the upper classes.
Instead of stopping to rest after long
run to one Of these suburban flower
shows, the coolic spends all of his time
admiring, enchanting over and talking
about tho flowers, and my particular
coolio the other day nado me go here
and there to see this and that mar
vel, and walk bacl; and forth to COM
pare and review the superb flowers.
There was no doubt but that he under
stood, appreciated and felt the beauty
and sentiment of the exquisite peonies
far more than we did, and it seemed
cruel that such really refined, aesthetic
soul should have to run like q pony in
tho shafts Of jinrickisha.-New Or

Not a Pleasant Resort.

When ON invalid goes to the Carlsbad
Spa or cure, in Germany, he is informed
upon his arrival that the spa is not a
pleasure resort. There are rules Of habit
and diet that must be observed. All
guests of the spa must arise at a certain
hour in the morning. At G a. m. there
is grand promenade concert. Full dress
is required upon this occasion. One hour
and q half later is the breakfast hour.
The fare is Of the simplest. Should
patient grow restless consequent upon the
meagerness Of the menu, and indulge in
forbidden Injuries, the physicians of the
cure fatty refuse to longer treat him. He
is practically banished from the spa. The
whole thing is, Of cou..1e, under govern
ment control. A most careful diagnosis
is made of each arriving patient. If SO
be 1t that his ailment is not one to be
benefited by the waters, the patient is
told so. can recall an instance of st.
Louis grain merchant who went to Carls-
bad. When the examining physician got
through with him, he said; II can recon-
mend but ono place that will do you good;
it is the Hot Springs of Arkansas. DIR.

a Source Of COURAGE.

There arc, of course, many degrees of
courage, endless varieties in its mani
fcstations, but ny own experience leads
me to believe that this virtue in man
follows tho same natural laws as obtain
in the case Of horses and dogs. Tho bet
ter bred all three are tho greater will be
their innate pluck. III the well born
man, however, there is found another
element of the highest value. The man
proud Of q brave father, or, still moro,
Of long list Of bravo progenitors, even
If fate has been so cruel rs to give him
thin blood and tirnid disposition, will
feel bound to sustaiA what Is commonly
called 1.-The honor Of lis na1le." The
struggle within him may possibly strain
every nerve, but bis pride will conquer
his weak spirit, and in the hour of trial
aye, even of appalling Gangcr-will
enable him TO play tho part Of tho hcro,
end to play it reii...-Lord Tolseley in

three months in Jail. A few days after
the trial the judge, accompanied by the
sheriff, was on his way to the Boston
boat when they passed man saving

The sawyer stopped his work, touched
his hat and said: GOOD morning,

to glance backward, with the question.

''Yes, replied the sheriff, hesitatingly,

Another euro for insomnia.

Gated for sleeplessness that am
tempted" writes a correspondent, ito
PROFOUND my own recipe, which, if it
may appear somewhat impracticablc and
far fetched, has at least tho advantage Of
simplicity. 1t is merely this: When you
have tumbled and tossed about one bed
until your pillow seems to be on fire and
your sheets red hot, turn into anothcr-I
mean another bed. You will find the
sheets and the pillow refreshingly cool,
and it is probable Mt all events that you
will go TO sleep. The recipe is not in
fallible, and it Is Of course necessary to
have another bed to turn into, which is
not always possible. But when practice
bic it is worth trying: and if it fails one
can always fall back on the undoubted
fact that there is no universal cure for
tleeplessness. What is one mans meat

The English Tories are finding no little
trouble with the temperance question. Lord
Salisbury is himself what would be called in
Belfast, Maine, personal liberty" man.
He has often said that his sympathles were
not with the prohbitionists, because the
curtailment of the liberties of the rum seller
and the rum buyer would very likely be the
beginning Of the curtailment of other liber-
ties as well. But as a politician he finds
the temperance question one which he cannot
deal with according to his own notions entire
ly. The new Local Government bill, the most
important measure of the government, pro-
yides that the local authorities in the coun-
ties shall control the issue of licenses to the
liquor sellers or publicans. This amounts to
local option as we know it in America. One
feature Of the local option clauses of the bill
was provision for compensation for tile re-
tail liquor sellers who might suffer loss
through Withholding of their licenses by
the new local authorities constituted by the
bill. This virtual recognition of the liquor
business as vesled interest has raised such
storm, not only among the ''blue ribbon"
temperance people, but as well among
large class of less radical citizens, who OBJ
jected to such recognition all the more SIREN
uously because 1t would involve heavy taxes,
that the government has been forced to agree
to the expurgation of these clauses favoring
the publicans. The bitterness of this alter
native is apparent from the fact that the
publicans have always been generous and
loyal bulwarks of the Tory party. They
have stood by it in many hot contest, and
now will not relish being left in the lurch
when their own time of trouble is coming.

The investigation into the jobbery of the
contractors on the great New York aque-
duct has developed some interesting circum-
stances. Among other things it has been
found that there has been system of sig
nails so arranged that the presence of an en-
gineer coming to inspect the work was i'm
mediately made known to the bosses so that
they could prepare to receive him. No engi-
neer could get down shaft ahead of the sig
nal, which was the flash of an electric light
sent down the shaft by the employees of the
sub-contractors. But the investigating COM
mittee of the New York Senate is now let
ting some flashes of light down the aque-
duct shafts that are uncovering the crooked
work Of the contractors.
