would not be SO many suicides. Nor
"ouid there be so many aggravated
cases OF the blues" The point of
view has everything to do with the
conduct Of human affairs. Few neo.
PIE realize this. The few who do are
the real philosophers. They know
mat the great busy world is Just an
enormous aggregate Of individual par
ucies, and that each self-centered
moiecule is too closely wrapped ND in
i.s own concerns to be very greatly
worried about the doing Of others. A
man who gets drunk thinks the whole
earth Is holding up its hands in horror
at MS conduct, that million eyes see
his tottering steps and that half a mil
hon tongues talk of them. Not so.
A friend of his sees him, goes home
ana says to his wife: Jones is drink
ing again; too bad;" then they talk
or the color Of the new carpet for the
sitting room. A man embezzles some
money. He cannot make 1t good: his
deed must come to light. He pictures
himself the center of q universe of
blazing contempt. Perchance he goes
and kills himself. All a dreadful mis-
take. The world has seen too many
embezzlers to be very much concerned
about one more. If the man who
drinks, and the man who steals, and
all the other men and women going
about with sintortured consciences
and standardized minds but could get
the point Of view Of the easy going old
world about them, they could verify
life themselves out of their troubles by
their bootstraps. The drunkard, and
the thief, and all the rest, have friends
who would willingly lend them money
and lend them moral support, and pull
them through, just. perhaps, for the
selfish satisfaction Of being able to
say: Il helped to save old Jonesy; bad
way he was in-have you seen the
show at the this week." SO
next time you get real worried and
banker for corner in the church

outside of yourself and size up your
own little troubles from the big
worlds point of view. You'll find that

shining on you, and the birds are sing

in 1918 and succeeded his father in
1860. He held the government offices
of President of the Board of Trade,
London Lord President of the Coun-
Gil and the secretaryship of Scotland.
He also served in the army, entering
it in 1889, and being aide-de-camp TO
the Duke Of Wellington from 1912 to
1852. These summarize the chief
events of his public life.
One further fact may be referred to
as throwing a light upon the family
name and "honor" of the house Of
which he was the head. In 1892 he
accepted a cash payment of $2,5OO,OO0
from the government in lieu of a
pension of $4,000 year which
Charles H. had settled upon the fam
lily. And thereby hangs a tale.
Charles H., as is known to every
reader Of history, was weak, vain
glorious and profligate ruler. He had
favorites by the score around his
throne and being almost absolute in
power he rewarded them out of the
public purse without anybody's per-
mission. One of these favorites was
Louise de Kerouaille, a French beauty,
but conscienceless Charles fell a
slave to her charms and made her the
Duchess Of Portsmouth. She practic-
ally ruled England through him. She
drew an income of 100000 from
Charles and carried on lucrative
trade in pardons. Most any one could
obtain the Kings pardon for crime,
If enough money was paid to the bra
zen duchess; and that vast sums Of
money were paid to her favor Is evil
denced by the fact that her income
in the year 1851 amounted to $650,00O
"a large amount for that time.
In 1872 the Duke Of Richmond, who
had married Frances Stewart, for
mer favorite Of Charles, died and the
Duchess of Portsmouth asked the
King to transfer the title to her son
Charles, then an infant. Charles OBJ
ligingly did so and further granted a
pension Of 100000 year to the hold
er of the title, making it hereditary
in the family. Thus the house of Rich
mond up to 1892 cost the British tax
payers upward of $4,000, OO0-surely
heavy penalty to have to pay for a
woman's wiles and a foolish mon
arch's within.

DECLARED NOT INSANE.
Esley stanton Has Been Acting Queer of
Late but Mind is not Unbalanced.


Esley Stanton, commonly called
"Deafy," was taken to Ithaca Tuesday
by Undersheriff Button by an order
from Judge Seaver for the purpose of
examining him in regard to his sanity.
Drs. Bagley and Suydam were the ex.
aiming physicians and after thor
ough investigation, both OF them
decided that he was not what could
properly be termed insane or subject
for the insane asylum, so he was re-
leased and came home on the noon
train.
"Deafy" has for years been an eccen-
trio character about Alma, and since his
mothers death has lived alone in
small house in the west part of town,
gaining his livelihood by working at
odd jobs about town whenever he could
get them. Although he kept himself in
filthy condition, people pitied him to
a certain extent and in that manner he
was enabled to earn living, suoh as it
was, and also, by his miserly conduct
save a small sum of money which he has
deposited in the bank, something over
$500 in all. His deafness has made 1t
impossible for people to converse with
him and it has also affected his speech
to certain extent, an affection which
has made him appear queer. During
the past two or three weeks he has been
acting trifle more queer than usual,
making all kinds Of noises when alone
at night and some of the neighbors were
of the opinion that he was getting to be
little more "off' than was agreeable
and so made complaint When Un.
dersheriff Button went after him Tues
bay morning to go to Ithaca, he refused
to accompany him and it took two
assistants to get him handcuffed SO that
he could be taken.

will be seen. The parade will move

streets of the city over its route, which
will be given latter in the papers. 1t is
intended that the parade shall be only
a forerunner of the glOries Of thes e
