as Good as He Thought.
President Elmer H. Capen of Tufts
college was talking to little group
of undergraduates about the wisdom
of economy
But while economy is WISE" he
said, ito be mean or niggard;y is the
height Of foclishness. The niggard!y
man is nearly always overreached. It
is like
Here DR.. Capen smiled.
1T is like" he resumed, ':the story
of the miser and the mouthful of wa
ter.
This miser had a cask of wine in
his cellar, and every evening he would
send his man to fetch him up pitch
er. To keep the man from drinking
any of the wine he would make him
fill his mouth with water before he
left the room. Then on his return the
man would have to prove that the wa
ter still remained in his mouth, and
thus the miser would be convinced
that none of the wine had been stolen.
"This scheme seems ingenious, and
yet the servant with the greatest ease
overreached his master. He kept a
pitcher of water hidden in the cellar,
and, emptying his mouth on his de-
scent, he would drink all the wine he
desired, and on his return upstairs
would still have full mouth to show
the unsusDecting master.

Russia's Rotten Government.

The present government of Russia
according to all testimony, is as vic

chief is a weak and vascillating man
who is incapable of a settled policy
First one palace 'cabal and then an
other is in control. Corruption is the
rule in all departments of the vast
bureaucracy. It is dishonesty and in
efficiency at home rather than a lacE
OF valor in Manchuria which has
brought disaster to the Russian arms
A group of reactionary mobiles, aided
by reactionary church, is in power
and is using it not for the czar of Rus
sia, but for the personal enrichment
of its members. Manifestly such
regime contains in itself the seeds o1
