of a Western paper came nearer the truth
when he said that he bore 1.-The general APP
pearance of n comfortable hotel Keeper
And a Newport book seller, still less COM
plimentary, exclaimed when he first saw
him: Why. you look more like a sea cap
tain than a poet" The death of Bailey,
the author of "Festus.' has revived the
memory of a little group Of poets, his con-
temporaries, among the rest Of Upper.
Upper was a dapper little gentleman who
perpetrated a volume of "Proverbial Phi
losOphy," which struck the commonplace
taste of the ordinary British spinster and
OF Queen Victoria. The book had an i'm
mense sale, and filled the little mans purse
with money and his head with conceit. But
1t was quite harmless, and so was his van
fty. One of his distant relations was a
minister In the South, a fine, strong man,
and to him the proverbial philosopher,
when he was travelling in this country,
came as a visitor. On Sunday morning, as
they left the parsonage for the church. the
poet said: This must be a memorable
day for your The clergyman answered
that every Sunday was memorable to a
religious teacher. "Oh," said the little
Solomon, II don't mean that. 1 mean it
Is a memorable day for you because you

There have been greater men In litera-
ture than Montaigne, but none have been
more successful. His reputation Is I'M
mense; he is in mems mouths as often as
Dante or Cervantes. We look at that in
telligent. contemplative. unimpassioned
face, with its tired eyes, and wonder that
he should have achieved fame as immortal
as that of the fierce Italian or the noble
Spaniard. In the affairs of fame luck
plays Its part. Sometimes a mans genius
Keeps step with his country and his time;
he gains power from sympathy, his muscles
harden, his head clears, as he runs a win
ming race. Another man will fail in the
enervating atmosphere of recognition and
applause; he needs obstacles, the whip and
spur of difficulty. Montaigne was born
under a lucky star. Had fate shown him
all the Kingdoms of the world and all time,
and given him the choice when and where
to live, he could not have chosen better.
Montaignes genius Is French in every
nber; he embodies better than any one
other man the French character. In
this world nationality counts for much,
both at home and abroad. Frenchmen en-
JOY their own; they relish French nature,
It's niceties, It's strong personality; slug
gish in turning to foreign things. they are
not prone to acquire tastes. but whatever
Is native to them they cultivate. study and
appreciate with rare subtlety. They enjoy

The authorities Of the city of Washington
propose TO adopt an ordinance directed
against freak advertising on the streets and

other things. to prohibit such n~uisances as
the andwich men, the carriers OF transpar-

proposition is an excellent one, n the

has already gained the reputation OF being
the cleanest, best kept and most beauti-

Using mentioned are always and every

no legitimate excuse for being. Such de-
vices as the sandwich man and the per-
ambulating transparency are an obstruc-

would make every thoroughfare impass-
