Queer Old World

Devils Lake Inter Ocean: Did you
ever think Of it? That the greatest
champions of labor are loafers; that the
most prolific writer's on finance have been
penniless; that the most prominent
authors of books on how to get rich we're
paupers; that men who advertise in maga-
zines to teach how to succeed in business
have no business of their own, nor never
had; that the mosl brilliant and convinc-
ing platform advocate of prohibition that
the country ever listened to was a
preacher who was terrific consumer of
whisky on the sly; that one Of the most
effective writer's against Mormonlsm and
polygamy consorted with many women;
that rulers boast of their love for their
subjects, and the politicians of their
solicitude for the their constituents; that
the people who know how to run news-
paper better'n anybody are the numer-
Gus fellows who are back in their sub
scription: that in shor. the world is not
exactly what it seems, and that most o!
US in our pretensions of superiority NOR
ally, mentally and materially, are more
or less but plausible hypocrites.

aside because of alleged contributory
negligence on the part of Cadieux. The
