The Sin Of Freffinq

There is one sin which it seems to me is every
where and by everybody underestmated, and
quite too much overlooked in valuations of char
acter. 1t is the sin of frctting. 1t is as COM
mon as air, as speech SO common that unless it
rises above its usual monotone we do not even
observe it. Watch any ordinary coming to-
gether OF people and see how many minutes it
will be before somebody irets-that is, makes
more or less complaining statement some
thing other which probably everyone in the
room, or in the car, or the street corner, it may
be, knew before and probably nobody can help.
Why say anything about it? 1t is cold, it is hot,
it is wet it is dry; somebody has broken an ap-
pointment, i'll cooked a NEAL stupidity or bad
faith somewhere has resulted in discomfort.
There are plenty of things to fret about. 1t is
simply astonishing how much annoyance may
be found in the course of every days living, even
at the simplest, if one only keeps sharp eye out
on that side of things. Even holy writ says we
are prone to trouble as sparks fly upward, but
even to the sparks flying upward, in the blacklist
of smoke, there is blue sky above, and the less
time they waste on the road the sooner they will
reach it. Fretting is all time wasted on the
road.

Congress To Favor President

1t is understood that Congress will remember
the President in a way, soon after Christmas.
Since the order of the railroads cutting off pass
es, which by the way only applies to people who
do not know how to work the roads, there has
been considerable criticism of the fact that the
President has to pay all his own travelling ex-
pcnses, except on occasions when he accepts
transportation from some road, which he does
rot often do. Of course all the roads are very
glad to place the best of their equipment at his
disposal whenever he will use it. But on the oc-
casion of his Colorado bear hunt, he paid all of
his own travelling expenses, though there have
been runs up to Oyster Bay when he did accept
transportation. Now Congress proposes to
place him beyond the necessity of either paying
his own 'oi accepting courteses from the
roads by making annual appropriation to
cover the Presidents travelling expenses. This
provision will be added to one of the appropria-
ton bills and will be made ample to cover all
contingencies. .
