An Interesting Parallel.

In "Talk With Tired People," by
Margaret E. Sangster, which appeared
in recent periodical, the writer says,
"My own feeling is that Charles
Lambs idea of heaven-to lie all day
on sofa and read novels-was not so
flippant as it sounds
1t may be interesting to our readers
to notice that the same sentiment is
attributed to Gray in one of the famous
essays of old Abram Hayward. In his
essay on Alexandra Dumas, the author
says: ITO lie on a sofa and read eternal

Gray, one of the choicest and most

The humor OF Theodore Hook was

The great humorists, of course, were

The SteriIizing Age.

If the psychologists tell US we must
scrub the mouthpieces of telephones
once a day to get rid of dangerous
bacilli, of course we must obey orders
from such a source. But why once Il
day only? The last user of the phone
may have deposited disease germs in
the mouthpiece. Is it not necessary
to scrub after each user?
Then there are the doorknobs-ter
rible lurking places of infection. Should
we not have these scrubbed as soon as
use has, possibly, made them deadly?
And the straps and handrails of street
cars-it is an old story that these are
thick with bacterial colonies. If this
fear of possible and impossible infec-
ton from invisible sources gets strong
enough we may get as scared as the
Salemites in the days of witchcraft.-

tribute toe the. culinary art as one of
the most potent factors in the solution
of certain problems 1.-THE kinder

school at the other are two of the

nothing of cooking. -When she mar

to is the lunch counter in barroom.

No ShOeblacking For Emerson.

Frank 3. Sanborn Of Concord, intro
duced by Or. Curry as the last of the
Concord school of philosophers. says
the Boston Transcript. proceeded with
out preamble to a very personal and in
innate presentation of Emerson as he
knew him during thirty years. His two
most lasting impressions were Of En-
ersop's way of looking from his COM
panion's face as he talked and Of the
philosophers shoes, which were inno-
cent of any backing. This latter cir
cumstance was the result of decision
arrived at by Emerson and his friends
that If leather in tanning came out a
certain color they would not change 1t
by artificial pigments.

QUEER MARRIAGE PROPOSALS.

the two accidentally came together at

THE KING OF PORTUGAL.

Carlos goes about Paris unattended.
1t may be that a Portuguese gentleman
and a police inspector follow him at
some distance but I saw him the other
day pace in solitude the Boulevard dcs
ItaIiens. He seemed "a type" The
carriage of the head reminded one of
Victor Emmanuel; the face, of the
German fair cOmplexiOn--that is to say,

have been modelled in bread crumb.
The extremely blond hair formed a curly
fringe round a head covered with an
unmistakables silk hat. Dcmi-castors now

surprising were the monarch of a minor
state to put up with one. The small
eyes glanced to right and left, and re-

amusement at finding him unrec0gnized
in the motley crowd. His mouth wore
the smile of good humored self-com-
placency, and the nicely curled little
blond moustache gave the full face an
air of masculine coquetry. 1t is face
that expresses peace and prosperity
though. believe. the Portuguese some
times are a little turbulent. But his
reign has been free from such rows as
those which troubled that of Maria da
Gloria, and occasionally, that of the
late Dom Luis.
The king looked a good height.
He wore his carefully vaIetted frock-
coat, buttoned up, and threw out his
feet with something Of a strut, as if the
trousers were held down with UNDER
straps. Soldiers on the stage are apt to
walk thus. Carlos cannot be more than
parade soldier, as, happily for herself,
Portugal has never been at war with
any foreign state since NapOleOn's time,
and with none of her Kings since the
| last great revolt against Donna Maria,
her husband, and his German tutor.
The King can pass without difficulty
| for being amiable and, in a Portuguese
way, gentlemanly. The Portuguese. be

d damages to the extent of $4,000 and

ed damages to the extent Of $4,000 and
100000 respectively in each suit.
The fact that mems lives have an
actual legal cash value based upon the
earning capacity of the Individual is
now we'll established, as is also the
other fact that some men can fairly
earn by their own efforts salaries run
ming up to tens of thousands of dollars
and more annually.
Because we paid the nations Presis
dent only $4,000 a year until a COM
paratively recent date there was a
general feeling that nobody else could
earn more than that sum. But we have
learned with the rest of mankind that
many men would be very inadequately
remunerated unless their annual in
comes We're much larger.
Scores, if not hundreds, of men carry
life insurance to the amount Of 100000
and upward. Their lives are recognized
by the companies to be worth these
large sums. Such men earn every year
more than an ample interest upon the
heavy amounts noted, and when they
die their estates are entitled to have
the loss made good to any reasonable
extent.
The law courts are. therefore, only
conceding what life insurance and the
experience of the business world gener-
ally have already shown--viz., that
many men can fairly earn better pay
than others, that there is hardly any
limit to the earning capacity on the
part of some of the more fortunately
gifted Ones and that when they die
there remains the right that the loss to
their family or. estate shall be made
| good. -
If they have themselves prudently
prearranged for this the indemnity is,
of course, certain and immediate, while
If their death is the untimely work OF
corporation carelessness the world ad-
vanced thought now allows the possible
remuneration through the courts to
reach almost any sum. Chicago
