BITS OF WISDOI.
(From Bryan's Commoner:

The man who agrees with our views Is always a sensible fellow.
 \ face painted on canvas is al- ways much prettier than a face painted under hat.
 Too many people conjure up trouble and then seek credit for bearing heavy crosses.
 No man Is really wise until he is willing to admit that there are things he does not know.
 When we see a boy loafing on the streets we suspect that the father may be to blame.
 People who go to church through a sense of duty seldom get any good out of the service.
 It Is a pleasure to lend to a neighbor who always returns a heaping cup for the level cup she borrowed.

When the late Prof. Sommer- vile, of the Univ 4ersity of Pennsyl- vapia, the lear1ed collector of gems, charms and mascots, had set his mind op some curio heard of in one of his meetings with ori- entals, nothing could bar the way, says the Booklovers' Magazine. Were it in the center of the Desert of Sahara or on the topmost pin nacle of the Himalayan noun tains, he would go after it and keep up the search until the treas ure was found, purchased and placed on exhibition at the univer- sity museum.
 American gold was Prof. Som mefville's magnet, wherever he went. He thus describes it's eff feet on one of his expeditions:
 "On one occasion we desired to visit the famous Dilwarra temples in India, and for that purpose en- gagged two jinrikishas and num- Der of natives to draw them, about r in all. The temples, as you know, are set in a mag nificent grove of mango trees on a mountain top and surrounded by great hills. With a fair measure of tact and money I hoped to se- cure from the people of the vicin- ity some of their odd talismans and rings. 1 said to the chief rikisha man: Now, Lala, what will you do for me if I double your pay? l want to make this jour ney in half time, and if you can ac- complish it you shall be doubly paid
 He went to his helpers at once and informed them that 1 was q prince. We started out under the contract. He ran ahead of the convoy, raising both hands in the air and crying to the astonished people,: Here comes prince. Down with you. Here comes prince.'
 And during the entire 1o miles l was treated to the un-Ameri- can experience of seeing the peo- pie cover their faces and drop ab- jectly to the ground in obeisance and salutation, only daring to look at me through their parted fin gers. But my amusement at thus being treated as a prince was nothing to the qualification l ex- perienced in securing from these people-who did not dare to re- fuse so august parsonage as l. some of the most interesting in. scribed talismans that l have in my collection"
