Rage, or tram-ear, they are always

Such mems lives get spaperised:
and, if these are examples of excess.
no one escapes a little saturation. It
is no wonder that some have sought
to deliver themselves from a habit
leading to possible thraldom. and
have thought they could find protec-
ton in total abstinence. CARLYLE
seems to have found some refuge in
this principle, valuing, as he said,
life and time which is the essence of
life; but his greatest admirers. of
whom claim to be one. must admit
that his example is really a warning.
The later years of his life tell a sad
story of slowly-sterilising forces.
which must, indeed, in any case have
waned with passing time, but which
had lost freshness, elasticity, and vital
use sooner than they should have
done, through his isolation.
Total abstinence from newspapers
means insensibility to the movement
of the world. 1t may be pardoned as
personal weakness but cannot be ap-
proved as a rule of life. 1t will not
even speak Of newspapers as a neces-
s2ry evil. They can become an evil,
and often art so; but lie reading of
newspapers is a proper part of the life
of the twentieth century; and, if we
are to safeguard ourselves and our
successors against the danger of it's
becoming too large a part of life as the
century goes by, we must find our
defense in discovery of the right
limits of newspaper reading-not in
dispensing with is altogether.-Con-

The Clever Chesterfield,

Horace Walpole says: Lord Ches-

claim to wit, and the women be-
lieved in it. He was so accustomed
to see people laugh at the most trif1ing
things he said that he would be
disappointed at finding nobody smile
before they knew what he was going
to say Two of Lord Chesterfeld's
smart sayings may be worth giving
here. One day he was asking George
II about a dispatch which was to be
sent to foreign monarch. The king

ly: Send it to the DEVIL" "And shall

Another time, he was dining at an
inn where the plates and dishes were

complained, he was told by the wait

SPONGES GROWING SCARCE

"a constantly increasing demand for

Frederick w. Uhger, who has just

Kruger" had an odd experience with
Rudyard Kipling in Cape Town. He
was penniless, and had no connection
with the press and boldly asked the
great writer to take him along as secre-
tary, servant, driver, or anything. Mr..
Kipling asked him whether he could
cook, pack a horse, beg. forage, lie if
necessary, and when he learned that
the applicant had been over the Chill
koot pass. he was satisfied. But he de-
clined to take him along, because he
would be in the same line of business.
Mr.. Unger modestly protested that he
was No. in the same class, but the no.
Velist answered.: That's just where
you make your mistake. You should
think yourself every bit as good as
am, and make it your object to beat me
at my own game" But Kipling gener-
ously made it point to find a post for
the young journalist as assistant to the

EMMELUTH AGAIN BECOMES i
TARGET.
Tries to Make Standing Committee of
Enrolment Committee-Paris Gets
Mad and Quits.

The enrolment committee of the joint
conference committee of the Legisla-
ture had little breeze this morning as
the result of which Senator Paris re-
fused to have anything to do with it
and walked out. The trouble arose over
contention of John Emmeluth that
the committee not only had the power
to revise the appropriation bill but had
the right to alter items If It deemed
such necessary. A storm arose i'm the
committee and among legislators out
side. Mr.. Paris contended that the
special committee had no right to alter
items adopted by the joint committee,
and on account of the persistence of
Mr.. Emmeluth got up in a rage and
left the room.
Mr.. Emmeluth had received the idea
that the powers of the enrolment COM
mittee were co-eXtensive with those OF
any Legislative standing committee and
under this impression, he invited sew
eral of the department heads to meet
with the committee this morning and
make their recommendations. Among
the number invited were the treasurer
and auditor and the meeting was held
in the treasurer's office.
Proceedings began precisely as in a
standing committee, and proceeded UNI
til Mr.. Emrraluth desired to make
changes in the bill, which he proceeded
to do Mr. Paris protested but it did no
good. The Senator from Hawaii finally
jumped up in rage, expressed himself
and left the room. The committee soon
adjourned without completing its work
1t is likely that the joint committee will
take action on the matter this after
noon.
1t may be explained that In legislative
bodies the duties of an enrolment com.
mittee are to revise a bill. inserting
items as they were finally passed in
their proper places and making such
corrections as the general or main body
