Money in a Famous Name.

It is estimated that the fame which
attaches to Stafford on-Avon because
of the fact that Shakespeare was born
there is worth $5,OOO,O0O to that town
The charges for admission to the poets
house, to Anne Hatheways cottage, to
the church, to the memorial and to the
grammar school net $4,000 yearly
sum which is equivalent to an income
of per cent. on the $5,00OOO0 capital.
This calculation does not take into ac-
count the income to the railways from
the pilgrims to the Warwickshire
mecca, and there is no estimate of the
profits of the Stratford tradesmen, who
do a good business in photographs,
pamphlets and trinkets relating to the
town and the great bard

Too Thick.

A young lawyer with no practice rent
ed modest office, hired a smart boy.
and waited for his clients. He waited
a long time, but one day the client
came. AT any rate the door opened,
and voice asked if the lawyer was in.
James, said the young lawyer to
his office boy, II wish you'd go to the
First National Bank and tell them that
the amount of that draft should be fif-
teen hundred and seventy-fve dollars,
instead of fifteen hundred and twenty
five dollars, and before you return
drop into Mr. Johnson's office and tell
him that I've collected that thirty fl We
hundred dollars for him. While you are
there step across the hall and inform
Mr.. Fogball that unless that note for
ten thousand dollars is paid in the
morning shall begin foreclosure pro-
ceedings. Hurry, now, James, as there
Is a great deal of work to do this morn
ing"
The well-trained boy was going out,
when the prospective client said:
This is no place for me with five
dollar claim to collect
Then he numbered down the stairs,
and the young lawyer said, wesa'ily:
"You needn't go, James; laid it on
too thick that time"

Haitian Conservatism.

The Haitian is fine example of con
servatism. A few years ago the town
Of Port de Paix, owing to an unexpect-
ed progressive spirit on the part Of the
government, constructed some fine wa
ter works. The town was we'll piped.
with hydrants at short distances on all
the streets. Decorative fountains were
placed in the squares, drinking places
for man and beast everywhere. The
natives, as usual, took not the slightest
interest in this important and neces-
sary undertaking. AT last, when COM
pleted, in accordance with the custom
OF the country, the water system was
opened with a series Of fetes. The
whole section of the country had a
hilarious holiday-balls, professions.
cockfghts, etc. When these were all
over the natives came to the conclu-
sion that the water works must have
been built to give an excuse for them.
and the water works were no longer of
any service, SO they promptly smashed
the whole system, and returned to
carting the city's water from the dis
tant river by OK teams. Now they tie
their animals to the MIGRANTS, fall over
the fragments of the pipes scattered
round the streets, and are happy.

safely through dangers that would
sadden an American Indian, only to
find one situation funnier than the
preceding one; that this commander
had such power over men as to make
Afghans his personal admirers and
collies his friends, and, not knowing
these things, Cronje began the siege.
Few men are as versatile as the
hero of Mafeking. His accomplish
pents are described by an English
writer, who knows him well, as those
of frst-class sportsman and polo
player, a crack shot, an admirable ac-
tor, a fine singer, forceful and clever
writer, and an artist of great power.
With all this he is modest and kind
hearted and is the idol of his wife and
his pretty daughter.
The unconquerable colonel is 43
years old. He entered the army in
1875, and most Of his active service
was seen in the Zulu war, during
which he reconnoitered 600 miles of
the Natal frontier in twenty days and
absolutely alone. Whatever the flu
ture may hold for him, it is not prob
able that he will record nobler per-
Torrance than that he has accom-
plished in the defense of Mafeking.

world, yet Of its 8,447 students 2.OO9
are reported as residents Of the State.

Public events that have come home
with peculiar force to the people Of
this nation seem to call for a repetition
Of the homeiy aphorism, Honesty is
the best policy" If there were no
Christian religion, If .'thou shalt not
stear' had never been inscribed in holy
writ, the truth would still hold good
that the risk Of dishonesty is out of all
proportion to any possible gain. 1t is
said that most newspaper men are pes
simists-that they are, as class, cruel
and unfeeling. There may be some
thing in the charge. Their work brings
them in contact with SO much that is
insincere, with SO much of misery, with
so much Of crime, that, unless they be
broad enough to understand that their
lives are narrow, they are prone to
think the world is made up of these
things. But the newspaper man usually
learns early that honesty is the best
policy" Almost daily he comes in con-
tact with the hardship, the disgrace
and the misery that follow dishonesty
almost as surely as night follows the
setting sun. A trusted emplOye sudden
~ resigns" and when the reporter
comes to look into the facts he finds a
sorrowful employer, a crushed and pen
itent ex-employe and a family, half
crazed with grief that is worse than
DEATH imploring that nothing be print
ed Of the matter. Nothing appears about
it in the paper, of course, but the young
man, "short in his accounts" never re-
covers from the blow. A building as
ISOLATION or bank has been looted by
it's managers, a commercial enterprise
has been wrecked by dishonest prac-
tees, in almost any Of the cases that
occur, always comes the same stagger-
ing load Of sorrow and shame. We are
in the world to gain as much of happi-
ness as we can. Let any one look among
those he knows best and ask himself
who, among them, are the happy ones.
Invariably he finds them to be the ones
that have lived the best lives according
to the Christian code of marals.
Whether they be rich or poor seems to
make little difference in the sum Of
happiness they are able to extract from
life. If their records be clean, il they
have nothing to be ashamed Of, If they
possess the proud consciousness that
they have accomplished good in the
world, if they have the confidence and
respect Of those that know them, riches
beyond comfortable competence can
make little difference in their haDDi-
ness

Automobiles in GERMANY.

The large amount of capital and ener-
gy which is being spent upon this
branch Of industry indicates that Ger
man business men, the most conserva-
tive financiers in the world, have great
confidence in the future of AUTOMOBILE
ism. Last year there were about 1 900
men employed in and around Berlin in
the automobile industry, and, to Judge
from the present outlook. this number
will be more than doubled during the
present year.-Consul B. III. Warner. Jr.
