Full Of His Subject.

Edward levitt Wheeler editor of
the Literary Digest. in addition to b!.
numerous office duties. found time
to deliver several speeches for the
Citizens Union during the last cam
paign. At the breakfast table Oh the
morning following one OF his partlc-
ularly arduous efforts. all heads were
bowed for the customary grace before
meat when Mr. Wheeler startled his
family by starting off in loud voice
with:
"Mr. Chairman"
The burst of laughter that followed
caused the blessing to be deferred to
a later and less hilarious occasion,
though breakfast was eaten as usual,
and with no apparently injurious ef-
tects.--New York Times.

An American traveller writes: "Ath-

1t is raw, garish, new, staring, crude.
1t smells of paint. 1t reeks of var
nish 1t is redolent Of last week. 1t

is vulgar. Everything in it is imita-

JOY to leave the commonplace streets,
to quit the insufferabe city and to
climb the Acropolis. There, every.
thing is calm and peaceful and the
magnificent ruins are restful. There
only in Athens do you find spot
which is not oppressively new and
raw. The royal palace is one of the
newest and the rawest OF all the raw.

twenty second wearer of the crown,
which his ancestors have borne with.
out interruption since the year 666
b. G. That is to say. the founder OF
the dynasty was a contemporary OF
Nebuchadnezzar. Though one may not
be guilty of the impoliteness of cali
ing his pedigree in question it is DIFF.
ficult to believe that the mikado OF
1850 years ago was the son of the

Every Day.

Every day hath its dawn.
It's soft and silent eve,
It's noontide hours of bliss or ba'e;
Why should ". grieVe?
Why do We heap huge mounds Of years
Before us ard behind, a..
And scorn the little days that PASS
Like angels on the wind?
Each turning round a small sweet face
AS beautiful as near:
Because it is SO small lace
We will not see 1t clear:
We will not clasp it as It tli@s.
And kiss It's lips and h:oW:
We will not 1athf, ON "eirie0 souls
in it's delicious Now.
And so it turns from us. and goes
Away in sad disdain:
Though we would give our lies tor 1t,
1t never comes again.
Yet. every day has its dawn,
It's noontide and its eve;
Live while We live, giving God thanks:
lie will not let us grievc.

Decline Of Genius.

There is much to be said in favor
of the theory that nature is growing
no longer produces men Of abnormal
mental stature It is quite certain
that modern masterpieces in art. in
architecture. in music and in !itera-

exist at all. In all that pertains to
beauty-beauty OF form, beauty OF
color, beauty of sound, and beauty of
