Mind Your Own Business.

An old custom once prevailed in a re-
mote place of giving q clock to anyone
who would truthfully swear that he
had minded his own business alone for q
year and day and had not meddled
with his neighbors. Many came, but
few, if any, gained the prize, which
was more difficult to win than the Dun
NOW fitch of bacon. Though they
swore on the four Gospels, and held
out their hands in certain hope, some
hitch was sure to be found somewhere;
and for all their assertions the clock
remained stationary on its shelf, no
one being able to prove his absolute i'm
munity from uncalled.to interference
in things not in any way concerning
himself. At last a young man came
with i perfectly clean record, and the
clock seemed as if it was at last about
to change owners. Then said the Gus
todian: 80, young man was hereye
terday, and made mighty sure he was
going to have the clock, but he didn't"
Said the young man seeking the prize:
And why didn't he get it2" what s
that to you?" snapped out the Gus
todian, that's not your business, and
you don't get the clock. Home Jour

A Rule Needed.

Mr.. Hill has announced his intention
to continue the fight for a change i
the Senate rules. The country will
back him in pushing that needed re-
form. A parliamentary body with
out some means of reaching vote is
impotent and useless. Senators are
not superior beings. They have
often shown themselves to be exceed
ingly human and can be carried to
dangerous extremes by partisan pref
udice and the passion born of a fierce
political struggle. Trusting to Sen
atorial courtesy is an absurdity. That
body must have some means of limit

startling and appalling as that Of the
assassination of Mayor Harrison
This awful tragedy, coming at the
close of a brilliant day when Mr.. Har-

was attractive to the multitude.
His worst fault as public man was
