DROLL RUSSIAN PROVERBS

HE Scotch and the Spaniards have hith-
erto divided the credit of possessing the
largest store of proverbal wisdom but if
the literature of Russia was more widely
known it might prove formidable rival to
either the land of oatmeal or Of oranges
few specimens are given, which, on account of
Their pointed terseness, their quaint, homely
vigor and dry, Sancho Panza satire, scarcely
need the aid of rhyme to recommend them.
They indeed more fully than words can
express the faithful mirror of the shrewd,
simple, logged, humorous Russian mind, ever
yelling its natural keenncss under a mask of
habitual and inpenetrable stoldity:
Every fox praises his tail"
Go after two wolves and you will not
catch even one"
A good beginning is half the work"
Trust in God but do not stumble yourself"
With God, even across the sea, without
Him, not even to the threshold"
Without cheating, no trading"
The deeper you hide anything, the sooner
you find it."
If God doesn't forsake US, the pigs will
not take us"
\ debt is adorned by payment"
"Roguery is the last of trades !"
Never take a crooked path while you can
see a straight one"
Fear not the threats of the great, but
rather the tears of the poor
Send a pig to dinner and he will put his
feet the table"
Disease comes in by hundredweight and
goes out by ounces"
Every little frog is great in his own bog"
Be praised not for your ancestors. but for
your virtues"

WOOING POWER OF EGGS

to recent dispatches has struck it lucky in

saltwater, then one of the Klondike's
rich men, desired to win the hand of a con-
cert-hall singer in Dawson. At first she
seemed to favor his suit, but later Gates
became alarmed Several weather. miners
entered the field. Then he saw that the
singer was about to slip out of his fingers
and he executed a brilliant coup.
In those DAYS Klondikers lived principally
on canned goods and pork and beans, all of
which the woman in question detested.
with the result that she subsisted almost
entirely on eggs, which were short in the
market. "Swiftwater" bought every egg in
Dawson.
Now. marry me-" he said, "or you GO
without eggs.

of the New Testament. In II. Corin-
thians 18th chapter and I4th verse, he
says, for the children ought not to
lay up for the parents, but the parents
for the children" There is nothing
ambiguous about this statement 1t is
clear and comprehensive as to the duty
of parents.
lnnumerable quotations could be given
from the Bible showing there is nothing
more obligatory than that parents should
provide and care for their children
Parents know not when they NAV be
called hence and their children thrown
upon the charity of the world, yet many
ignore their sacred Obligations Such
fathers and mothers are not entitled
to the blessing of children, so truly called
the gift of God
BY far the majority of our people
are ambitious for their children. and,
if anything, too indulgcnt to them.
They wish to feel that their sons and
daughters are destined to take part
in the wonderful movements that are
sure to be inaugurated during the TWEEN
ticth century for the betterment of
all mankind
How can parents realize their am
billions for their children if they do not
properly educate and train them for
usefulness? How is it possible to ac-
complish this without money or its
equivalent? Men who are loyal to
their families are constantly endeavoring
to devise ways and means by which
they can discharge their duty to those
who are dear to them by the ties of
nature, and, at the same time, provide
opportunity for their success in life
Wise men need only to investigate the
proposition of Endowment or Investment
| Insurance offered by the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Co. to discover that an
absolutely infallible plan has been devised
whereby they can provide, whether
they live or die for the maintenance
and education of each of their children.
To show the wonderful advantage
of Endowment and Investment Life
Insurance in protecting children, we
will suppose that at their birth father
decides to take out a twenty year En-
dowment or Investment Life Insurance
policy for from S. 900 to $1,000 on
his life for the benefit of each of his
children. If death should overtake
J lllIll at dIl IIlllC DCIOlC IIlCII maturity
each of the policies he holds is at once
payable to the guardian of his children,
the amount being Immediately available
for their maintenance and education
or provision may be made in the policy
for the payment to the children to be
in the form of 81 900 bonds drawing
5 per cent interest annually and the
principal payable in 20 years more
when the child would be old enough
to intelligently handle the money. This
is an age of small families; hence a man
can afford larger policies for his few
children than could have been taken out
for the old time large families.
If on the other hand, he should live
until the maturity of each policy in
what easier or wiser way could there
have been provided lump sum for
each child, payable to the father at
Just the right time, when the child IS
about twenty-one just when the boy
needs money to start in business, or
when the girl should have substantial
wedding present.

By Hezekiah Buterworth

times. When Kings Chapel was being
erected, he remarked, referring to the
upper tier of narrow windows, that
he had heard of the canons of the church,
but had never seen portfolios" before.
He was a Tory and would talk Tory
politics. He SO ridiculed the patriots
III their opposition to the King that
the authorities resolved to put him under
guard. He lived on what is now Hollis-st.
soldier was sent to guard him,
who marched up and down before the
door in an official and pompous manner.
One day the merry rector came out
of his house
Halt" said the soldier
II want you to go down to Kings-st.
and do an errand for me, said Dr. Byles.
But | am on guard"
'Ies, but let me have your gun, and
will stand guard over myself"
The people who gathered about the
scene saw that setting a guard over the
irrepressible man was ridiculous. So
the guard was withdrawn.
But the saucy doctor began to talk
again, politically The magistrates
placed another guard over him, who
was also withdrawn.
When this was done the doctor said
to one of the magistrates, or forefathers:
What a state is minel | have been
guarded Regarded, and now l am
disregarded, which is the most unhappy
condition of man"
a dark day fell upon NewEngland.
According to the language of settle
lore, The fowls went to roost at noon.
AS there was no eclipse set for that day,
many people thought that the end of
the world had come
There was a woman. probably a
member of Dr. Byles' parish, who was
greatly alarmed and distressed as the
darkness deepened She said to her
little son: Go, feel your way along
to Dr. Byles' door, strike the lnocker,
and tell him that | have sent you
Say to him that l am in darkness,
and ask him what is the cause of this
appalling obscurity"
The boy went as directed.
The doctor answered the banging
He opened the door, probably in gown
and wig, and possibly with snuff-box.
DIR Byles, my mother sends me
to YOU. She is in the dark, and the
fowls have gone to roost, and she is
afraid that the end has come. She
wished me to say to you: What is
the cause of this appalling obscurity?
Yes, YES, said the live doctor in
some trepidation. We'll, well, you go
back and tell your mother, tell her that
| am as much in the dark as she is. "
This story was told with many varia-
tions in the latter days Of the Red
Settle charm. A joke on the dark day
was accounted a wonder. Kings
Chapel appears now as in the Red
Settle days. In the chapel yard is
the grave of Mary Chiffon, who was said
to be the first passenger on the May
flower to leap on shore at Plymouth
Rock
There was a story of Mather Byles
that roguish boys liked to hear:
1t may have happened in the days
of the chimney-sweeps.
Two boys had climbed the house
ladder, and were looking down the
chimney, when the doctor, hearing
sounds in the chimney, thought he

THE election of Roosevelt sends an
electrical thrill of pride from end to
end of this great country. No one
has felt seriously alarmed over the
outcome. 1t was taken almost uni
versally for granted that Teddy would
be elected. The American people are
proud of him, and Democrats
throughout this western country have
been liberal in their support and
praise. The result of the election,
national and state, is sufficient to
make one glad he is a Republican
and a citizen of " yon..ng.

To l.. q. DAVIS, chairman of the
county central committee, is due the
overwhelming Republican victory in
Carbon county. Never before have
the Republicans had so many diff
culties and preludices to
and but for the s%plendidly organized
and systematic campaign work, the
Democrats would have undoubtedly
carried the county for Osborne and
many of the county offices, instead of
Il Republican majority ranging from
600 to 900, in some instances. Mr..
Davis has been interchangeable in his
work. Not IA section of the county
but has been canyassed and there has
been no relaxation and "a series of
meetings and discussions have
brought the people of the county
more closely in touch with the cam
paign issues and candidates than has
ever before been accomplished. This
has required work of the strenuous
sort, and the credit is due Mr.. Davis
for one of the most perfect and sue
cessful campaigns in the history of
