A Big Colonization scheme.

Announcement was recently made In
London of big colonization scheme
for the development of South Africa.
One of the chief promoters is General
Botha. The plan embraces the forma-
ton of a land bank with a capital of
$10000000 says the New York Com
mercial Advertiser. 1t is said that the
company will start with the control of
100000 acres of land. The British gov
eminent is said not to look too kindly
on the scheme, regarding it as a pos
sible attempt on the part of the shrewd
Beers to gain political advantage for
the Dutch. This suspicion has been in
creased by the recent revival of the
Bond influence in Cape Town.

Mr.. Reeds Intended Leisure.

1t is given out that the late ex.
Speaker Reed had made plans TO retire
from his law business in New York.
Three years practice, with incidental
sure.thing tips In Wall street, had
given him a competency. He proposed
to crown his career with few years
of agreeable leisure, spending his win
ters in Washington and his summers
at his home in Maine.
No man had. by a wealth Of things
accomplished. better earned the right
to rest. Yet 1t Is easy to conceive that
into Mr.. Reeds planning for the quiet
evening Of his days there entered no
thought of absolute idleness. Mr.
Whitney retired. but not to loaf. Mr..
Carnegie retired, but Is among the
busiest Of men. Tom" Reed would
have been constantly reminded through
the fruits Of his brain and pen that
he was still worker-not drOne.
Leisure earned. Us 1t would have
come to Mr.. Reed. would have been
but an increase Of resource-fresh cap
ital of time to be invested for higher
uses. It Is a part Of the public calam-
ity In the case that such an Intended
leisure has been merged into unendinS
rest.-New York World.

Seolding and Admonishinx.

These are by no means equivalent terms,
nor can they rightly stand for the same
necessary and dieagreeabie duty. Sco.ding
is never duty. 1t is a form Of self-indal.
gence. 1t never accomplishes good and it
is one of the ways in which even kindly
disposed people put sand on the bearings
of Lies machinery and pull back when
they desire the work to 60 forward. The
difference is between i necessary means
of instruc:ing Others and safety valve ior
ones own vcxation or irritation. We sco!d
to please ourselycs-to relieve our minds,
AZ the saying is. We admonish with a
view to the efficiency of the work for
which We are responsible and for the i'm.
provement oil Our subordinate workers.
The two in motive, and usually in effect,
are rs far apart rs the poles. There Is
never right time to scoid. There must
often be times when we are required to
call attention TO the faults or carelessness
of others. We ought tt be reluctant to
admonish, but We should watch diligently
lest we speak words OF rebuke for the mere
qualification of our own feelings, for that
is one OF the cruel forms of selishness.
When we admonish we should do so de.
libaratel.y. with careful study of the jus.
tice OF our words and Of the appropriate.
ness OF the occasion. 1t is n means OF help;
it should be as private and kindly as
possible. Use imagination to put yourself
in the place of the adrnon: shed one and ask
how the fault-fnding and suggestion may
be made most effective for good.-Congre.
