It is getting pretty hard to do busi- ness in some places. The Providence Journal tells of the experience of a man who wanted to pay little bill. My firm, said the man, had accumu- lated little bill of something like $20 at one of the department stores for sundry articles purchased in the last month or so, and I went in to pay it.. Roamed around for several minutes and couldn't see anything that looked like an office, so stopped in the place marked Information Bureau. The girl in charge wouldn't take the money, although told her was in hurry, as l had an important engagement to keep in about five minutes. She said l would have to pay at the main of- flee on the fifth floor, but as l started off she stopped me and added that strangers were not allowed up there and that I would have to get permit from the superintendent, whose office was over in the southwest corner, just back of the clothing department. Seems to me you people put. all sorts of obstacles in the way of innocent per- sons who want to pay up what they owe you, I said. But there, was no use arguing the matter; I couldn't pay the bin anywhere except at the office on the fifth floor and I couldn't get In there without passport No, l didn't pay the bill. he concluded in response to question II didn't have the time. In a week or so I am going to take a half day, and after providing myself with an affidavit that we owe the money and that it is legitimate, hon. est debt am going to have my pho- tograph attached as a mark of identl- fication, and with the signatures of three bank directors vouching for my moral character and physicians cer- tif1cate of health, l am going to make @ formal application for permit to enter the sanctum sanctorissimum and liquidate that indebtedness, It's good deal of trouble, but we really want to pay the bill if we can find an authorlz- ed person who will take the money and receipt for it."
 Of course there is some reason for the Instructions placed in the way of this honest and eager man, but the ac- count of his experience will touch a sympathetic chord in many minds,

MODERN EGYPT.

Egypt is thoroughly up to date There has been strike among stu dents in the land of the Pharaohs, The rebels had to deal with Lord Cromer, and their discontinue was prompt and complete The pupils of the Khedivial Law School, resenting certain new reg ulations, went on strike, and being re- uuested to return to work and submit their grievances to the authorities in the proper manner refused to do so un- til every item in long list of demands had been conceded. It appears that the authorities were anclined to think that the pupils had some just cause of com plaint and were quite ready to listen to any proper protest. But the students, after committing the initial error of go- ing on strike made the fatal mistake of enlisting the cooperation of certain Nationalist agitator, Mustapha Pasha Kamel who tried to convert the strike into a quasi-political agitation against the ministry of public instruction and the government.
 Impossible demands were mingled with legitimate complaints. The strikers insisted, for example, on the right of unlimited re-entry for students who failed in their yearly examina- tions, and demanded permission to leave or enter the classes at any time they chose. Public meetings were held, at which students and Nationalists in- dulged in threats of violence. The pu- pills of the Polytechnic, School and the ! Technical College joined in the agita- tion and ceased work. The pupils of the Horticultural School joined the strike a few hours after an official warning had been issued by the minis try. pointing out the inevitable conse- quenees. Saturday, March 8, was the
 date on which the strikers were re- quired to return to work under penalty of rustication. Lord Cromer was ap- pealed to and proved adamant. If the

MORE SOUND AND GOOD ADVICE.
 The good and sound advice from the rich man to the poor man continues Young MT, Rockefeller, who ought to know how troublesome it is to be rich, said this to his Sunday school class: Take it from me that riches cannot bring you happiness. If you envy those who have wealth. if you are yearning to be rich and think that thereby you will be happy, you are making a great mistake Probably some of you will learn this some day from personal ex- perience, for it is the solemn truth Worldly possessions do not bring real happiness. If any of you look with covetous eyes upon the wealth of a rich man and yearn to be as he is, give up the idea.
 Of course this wont have much weight, but it ought to. Riches are not the main thing, though almost all of us are talking and acting as if they were A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches. Good health is rather to be chosen than great riches. A good mind is rather to be chosen than great riches. A good wife is rather to be chosen than great riches. Riches do not make happiness, though they are powerful aids in getting some things, Neither, it is fair to state, does poverty make happiness. And per- haps 1t isn't the noblest object of life | to be what is called happy.

For the pupils of the School of Agriculture nc allowance would be made.

A Chicago correspondent of the Green Bag, a well-known legal period ical, asks why corporation cannot be imprisoned as well as a man. His idea is that in inprisoning a man the state merely takes away his liberty, his earning power and his material ambi- tions for the time of the sentence, and that substantially the same thing may be done to a corporation by closing it's office or confiscating it's earnings.

The purchase by the state of the Jap anese and Corean railroads, which has just been discussed by a commission, is the cause of heated polemics in the press of Japan. The Opposition papers declare that such measure would hurt the rights of individuals, and that 1t would be difficult to maintain the price of the state bonds which 1t is proposed to give in exchange for the railway stock. The government papers insist upon the advantage of the purchase. The Progressists are opposed to it, and the Independents are divided. The low CT chambers committee of the Diet has pronounced by large majority in fa- yor of the project, It is believed that the law will be passed by both cham bers, notwithstanding the efforts of the Opposition.
