Once, years ago. when Daniel Web

an important foreign matter up for dis
cussion before the cabinet. aud the ut
most secrecy was of course maintain
ed. but the whole thing was blazoned
about in few hours after the cabinet
meeting. So the president hastily sent
for his cabinet tc talk over this leak.
Each man had q different idea of it.
Finally Mr. Webster arose. saying.
'You. gentlemen, go on with your dis
cussion. and I'll be back in a minute"
IN few minutes he returned and re-
peated every word that had been spo-
ken in the room in his absence. He
explained that II, by standing close to

New England Youngsters.

One cf Detroit's lawyers, who has
had such professional success as en-
ables him TO spend a portion OF each
summer in a quaint New England sec
ton, brings back some very interesting
facts.
Il take my outing in one Of those
parts" he says, where the farms are
so run down that you can't hope for
good crop of anything unless it be
beans or goats. One of the conse-
quences is that the young men have to
find some other part of the country in
which to make living, and I'll wager
that there is not another community in
the Union where the average age is
higher.
''Knowing me to be a lawyer, some
of the residents called me into con
ference about the township treasurer
who had been guilty Of advancing
teacher 81 on her salary without the
consent of the trustees. There was not
man there except myself who was
not past 81, and two were over 80.
"While I was making talk in favor
of the treasurer and trying to minimize
his transgressions without offending
the selectmen, as they called them, a
man of at least 81 slouched through the
door and took a seat

glowered at the intruder. How often

Breaking Up the Mess.

Lasting friendships are formed in the

strikes the landsman as a queer freak

a matter of course never to be ques-

three years. AS a rule, they learn each
