Philosophers AZ Play.

The love for play and fun is not after all
the peculiar property of boys and girls,
and it may amuse our young readers to
hear how some very eminent men have
diverted themselves. The famous Car

shutting himself up in room and jump

the story runs, when so employed he forgot
to lock the door, and a young courtier en-

undignified pursuit 1t was a difficult
position, but the young man was equal to
the occasion, for, assuming the greatest
Interest in the proceedings, he exclaimed
with well feigued earnestness, Il will bet

A Country without Clocks.

We know that there must have been a
time when timepieces were unknown, and
that, wen to this day, there are people in
this country-Indians, for instauce-to
whom he sun is the only standard of time;
but it i hard to realize that such people
could he anything but barbarians. Yet
Golden Days tells us there are civilized
countries where a timepiece can be dis
pensed with conveniently. In Liberia,
which is anything but barbarous in man
ners ard customs, a clock is rarely seen
in the farmhouses, and many of the town
residents have no timepieces of any sort.
The reason is that the republic lies only
dogs. north of the equator; therefore, the
sun rises about 6 a. m. and sets about
p. m. al the year round, and at noon it is
vertically overhead. Therefore, it is very
easy to tell the hour of the day with rea-
sonable certainty, and many people become
so expert in telling time by the sun that
they are rarely more than quarter of an
hour out of the way.

mouths about the greatest questions

much brass, coupled with q iireless
jaw, he is a typical rural commun-
ist. He fears and ,lespiscs inielli-
gence and character, and breaches
boldly the doctrine that all wealth

represent tile magnificent valley of
