VANITY Of VIRTUE.
Spartan Qualities That May Re Sublime,
Yet a Bore to Hear About.

| Spartan Qualities That May Re Sublime,
Yet a Bore to Hear About.
A Spartan virtue seems TO have the
Inherent quality OF making its possessor
forty-four- bore Of the worst
sort. Take tie man whose supreme il
not only virtue lies in the fact that he
takes cold water bath every morning
the whole year round YoC meet him
in the car, in the street. in the course
Of business anywhere, and no matter
what the topic may be at the start, the
con-ersation is bound TO include an
account-quite incidental. of course
Of how on the frostiest Of mornings he
frolics in the ice cold water just as it
comes from the hydrant.
Then there's the man who walks
down to his Office every morning. rain
or snow, in sunshine and in storm. The
more distant his home from his Office
the more he will talk about II, and he
will tell you that he has become 50 ac-
customed 10 it that the only time he
can get an extra thrill out Of It Is when
the streets are deep with snow and the
wind Is blowing a hurricane.
Heaven may forgive the man who
rises at 8, summer and winter, spring
and fall. We never can. The early
riser Is not criminal. simply because
the law does not designate his offense
as a crime. But it is admitted that the
law has its defects. Nothing can ap-
proach the look of superiority on the
face Of the early riser. He has found
the only road to health or wealth. The
books he has read before breakfast
would, II collected In heap, make the
Congressional Library look small.
There are some who would place in
the first rank Of this group that rugged,
hardy. vigorous, full-blooded gentleman
who can't breathe in a room unless all
the windows and doors are open. The
lower the pressure of steam in the
radiator, the lower the mercury in its
tube and the wilder the play Of the
winds over the roofs and around the
corners, the more insistent is he that
you are imperilling your very life By
not occupying an office wide open to
every wind that blows
Oh, Spartan virtue is fine thing. but
It would be simply sublime if its mod
ern exponents and inculcators would
just keep still about Washington

Brought back the impression that
American women did not allow their
husbands even to speak. notwIthstand-
ing which the American husband was
fond of his wife and his love for her
found expression in the constant
tearing OF checks out Of his check
book for her benefit until he sank ex-
hausted. In France the expression Of
love was speech, from the highest TO
the lowllest. French lovers enjoyed
the exchange of ideas. and more es-
pecially when man and wife. and this
perhaps explained why clubs were
neglected in France. French lovers
wished forever to be together. He

comment on English methods. but Il
seemed to him that in England It was
not the man who speaks 10 me, but
the man who walks out with me-
who was considered the lover.-Ion-

President Angel, of the University of
Michigan, told this story TO class in
international law:
"Some years ago, when / was United
States Minister to Turkey, Greece was
visited by a severe famine. A great
wave Of sympathy and pity swept over
the United States, affecting the women
particularly. They raised hundreds Of
dollars for the relief of the sufferers.
With true Yankee husbandry they did
not send the money In cash, but spent
II in buying vast quantities Of cloth,
which they made into dresses for the
Grecian women. One entire ship, l
believe, was loaded by this outp. dring
Of charity. / never was tired Of re-
ferring in diplomatic circles to the
generosity of my countrywomen, and
for a time was the envy of the repre-
sentatives Of the other governments.
shortly after the ship arrived and its
cargo had been distributed, I had oc-
casion to make a trip through Greece.
It was in the days when our ladies
wore extremely large sleeves; but the
style in Greece was not the same. You
may imagine my surprise and humilia-
ton when / saw that the Grecian
women had not known what the Amer
lean garments were and had put them
on their husbands for trousers. Sum

After hye years work and at a cost

claimed from the sea on the Cumber-

sea wall. constructed in 1890, 600
yards farther inland, made 5000. 600
tons Of ore available. but eight years
later a bed Of quicksand established
connections between the underground
workings and the sea, and the occur
renee indicated the importance of
larger area being enclosed II the work
IN the mines was to be carried on in
safety. The first outer bank OF the
new wall is of rubble limestone, pro-
tected on the seaward side by twenty
five ton concrete blocks distributed
irregularly, so as to break the force Of
the waves, and carried ten feet above
high water of the ordinary spring

die core, into which is housed the top
Of the piling under the bank, forming
