The Prime Minister Won

former governor Of the Australian
colonies tells of curious experience
he once had with a long-headed prime
minister. The LITTER brought in cer-
tain measure, calculated to make the
government popular with the working
classes, although it affected a foreign
power so much that representations
were made to the imperial authorities
on the subject A dispatch was accord
ingly sent out to the governor to veto
the bill. He sent for the premier. I'm
sorry, old man. said his excellency,
but I've just got orders from home,
and | shall have to block that bill. -
The premier replied, Look here, gov
ernor, | don't care hang about the
imperial guv'ment or about the queens.
as far as the thing is concerned, and
what's more, l don't care hang about
you. I've made up my mind to get that
bill through, and I'll bring 1t through. ?
The governor, who was polite, asked
the "old man" to have a drink, and
dropped the subject. The measure in
question became law in due course.

THE MATHEMATICS.

Let's get Peter TO take her"
Glen jumped from his chair and
slapped Tom roundly ON the shoulder.
SO elated was he over his bright idea:
then both young men laughed heartily
and wondered that they had not sooner
thought of so easy a way out OF their
dilemma.
1t was a difficult situation. The
young men had holly resented a scoId-
ing over some boyish escapade from
their specials" Toms cousin Lottie
and Clem's sister Mary. The girls
vowed never to speak to them again
and by finding it convenient TO visit
much away from home, and eschewing
evening church and festivities had
managed to adhere to their resolution.
In the meantime the Kings had
moved into the place, and just to show
the girls that they were not the only
ones in town, both young men had
taken to calling on Kittie She was a
lively, pretty girl, and it was a pleas
ant place to visit. and so it had gone
on until they had established quite an
intimacy, and without either actually
inviting her, they had committed
themselves to taking her to the APP
preaching county fair, by talking to
her of getting up a party. in which
she was included. to go in a large
wagon. Then came the reconciliation
and now they wanted to go as usual
in their buggies with Name and Lot
tie, and they had to face the problem
of what TO do about Kittie.
Il suppose you'll tell Pete and get
him to take Kittie off our hands" said
Tom.
We'll, maybe that would do, and

We can't drop Kittie like a hot potato
after all the good times we've had

chosen to make up. It's their fault we
went there in the first place, and

Device for watching Letter Carrters
The postofice department in Wash
ington is experimenting among the
Washington letter carriers with a de-
vice for keeping tab on carriers as they
make their rounds from box to box.
and if the experiment is decided to be
a success the new system will probably
be adopted for the entire country The
device is founded on the same princi-
pie as the alarm which night watchmen
pull once an hour, or half-hour, at
tending to business. 1t is attached to
the inside of letter boxes, and on re-
turn from his route the carrier de-
posits slips of paper which contain an
accurate register of the places he has
visited. If adopted by the department
the device will be intended as much for
the protection Of honest, faithful car
riers as for the detection of those who
are inclined to be shiftless and careless

Sculptured glass is new and charm

ancient art once practiced by the Ital-

vases, ETC., are made of layer of
opal glass superimposed on a layer Of
dark, plum-colored glass, and the de-
sign is cut out Of the opal glass, the
artist attaining the necessary light and

Our Good Side and Our Bad.

There is good side and bad side
to every man. We see only the good
side of some men, and we wonder that
he is not esteemed by all as we es-
TEEN him. We see only the bad side
of another man, and we are surprised
that others prize him as we cannot. We
are right and we are wrong in both
cases. Both men have both sides, and
We ought to recognize this In our esti-
mate of them. 1t is with ourselves as
with our fellows; we have a good side
and bad side, and those about us
are likely to judge us by the one side
or the other. 1t will be well for us If
we gain lesson from the judgment of
others as to our two sides. It ought
to help us to make progress in the
right direction and to repress the faults
and defects for which others judge us
harshly.-S. S. Times.

ILoosevelt on NatIon'. Duty.

Governor Roosevelt. OF New York,
who was the orator OF the occasion on
Grand Army Day at chautauqua, had
much to say on the legacy of war trou-

asm from the throats of the veterans.
He made a most vigorous defense of

uttered. and 1t was forceful as well.

cause 1t is difficult or dangerous, so
that the nation who shrlnks from do
ing It's work because that work is diff
cult or dangerous is to be held OF small
account among the nations OF the
earth"
What truer words could be said by
any American citizen under the present
circumstances? 1t appeals to the ma
tlonal pride and patriotism of the coun-
try. Roosevelt, with his characteristic
frankness, proceeded to say that leg
acy OF troubles followed in the train
of the Spanish war. He applied this
to the private lives of his hearers; II
ask you whether what you are proud
Of; what has been accomplished in ease
or trouble?" He urges that, having
destroyed Spanish rule In the east and
in the West indies, 'If we 90 away and
leave the ruins to clear themselves we
would better have left the work alone"
We commend to our readers the con-
Guiding paragraph OF Governor Roose-
velt's oration-for that is what twas:
