Very heavy are the burdens Of some
Of the high offices in Great Britain.
and leaders have been driven to curl
GUS methods to prevent breakdown.
When Robert Lowe was chancellor of
the exchequer he laid down ninety
feet Of asphalt and got himself a pair
of roller skates. That was his method
of mastering a liver and the fatigues
of Office. Earl Spencer when in Ire
land during the darkest days Of his
Office found riding fast and far the
one thing to relieve his spirits Of
gloom. Gladstone cut down the trees
and translated the classics; Lord RAN
dolph Churchill went racing. Palm
erston fought his battle against weari-
ness in the very workshop itself. The
late Sir James Paget found him at
work standing at high desk and told
him he really must take more rest.
Palmerston answered that it was i'm
possible; that 1t had now become his
habit to work while standing. Former
ly he had been so overworked that he
used to fall asleep while sitting writ
ing at his table. To conquer this weak
ness he took to standing, "for," he
said, "if / fall down that wakes me-"

The commencement exerc ises on
Monday evening and the reunion on
Tuesday of the New London Business
college attests to the strength Of this
constantly growing institution, and
the high degree of success it has at
tanned through the untiring efforts of
it's founder and principal, r. A. Bru-
beck. The rooms that were crowded
with friends of the graduates and cit
liens interested in the college, Mon
day evening, never held more repre-
sentative audience, and the interest
manifested showed that in the worlds
progress the business school holds a
high place, and that this particular
school has won and retains the regard
of the people of this city and vicin-
ity. The reunion at Wequetequock
brought together fine group OF young
men and young women as ever attend
ed an affair of this kinda group Of
workers who are making business his
tory in many parts of the country.
And in the addresses with one accord
the speakers attributed what success
they have attained to the training Of
the New London Business college.
Collectively, it was a magnificent
tribute to the worth of the institu-
tinn, and an asset which to Professor
Brubeck should show in still larger
attendance at the forthcoming sessions
of young folk who recognize that to
start right is to start here. New

Many tourists who have crossed the

made the three hour journey thence by
express to Cairo establish themselves
In one Of the fashionable hotels, do a
little shopping in the native quarter,

ride a camel the quarter mile distance

declaring, that they have seen Egypt
So they have, in sense, but Cairo is
no more representative of Egypt as u
country than New York is of the en-
tire United States. To see upper
Egypt, with it's fellaheen life, it's mud
cities and its quaint scenery, is like
turning the leaves of an old history
and studying the engravings, for
neither the country nor the people have
changed to any appreciate degree
since the days of Mohammed unless it
