Undiscovered Crime.

"Can you point out a man who at
the age of thirty has not committed
at one time in his life a crime that
would have sent him to the peniten-
tiary?" remarked a trusty at the peni-
tentiary the other day. Il do not be-
lieve that there is man living, ex-
cluding, for the looks of the thing, the
clergy, who has not done something
to bring him here had he received his
just deserts. 1t is not always great
crime that sends a man to the peni-
tentiary. There are men in here for
stealing chickens or clover seed or
nothing at all. 1t is easy to get be-
hind the walls. There are many men
on the outside who should be in here.
1 am personally acquainted with a few
myself. But the difference between
these people and myself is that have
been caught and they have not."-Co-

THE ART OF TALKING.

Things That Are Essential to "A Good
Conversationalist.
To be a good conversationalist you
must be spontaneous. buoyant, natural,
sympathetic, and must have a spirit Of
good will. You must feel spirit OF
helpfulness and must enter heart and
soul into things which interest others
You must get the attention of people
and hold it by interesting them, and
you can only interest them by a warm
sympathy-a real, friendly sympathy
If you are cold, distant and unsympa-
thetic you cannot get their attention.
To be a good conversationalist you
must be broad, tolerant. A narrow,
stingy soul never talks well. A man
who is always violating your sense Of
taste, of justice and of fairness never
interests you. You lock tight all the
approaches to your inner self. every
avenue is closed to him, and when they
are closed your magnetism ard your
helpfulness are cut off, and the con-
versation is perfunctory, mechanical
and without life or feeling.
You must bring your listeners close
to you, must open your heart wide and
exhibit a broad, free nature and an
open mind. You must be responsive.

you free access to his heart Of hearts.

that will strike a sympathetic
cord in the breast of every lover

exchange.
1t is an anti-cruelty crusade in

That Mr.. Davepport's cartoons

that manv theughtless torturers

PUNY EAST INDIANS.
The Native Born of English Parents
Are Sorry Lot.

The Native Born of English Parents
Are Sorry Lot.
The queerest sight you see in India
is the native born," said the sailor.
The native born is the thinnest, soft
est, LATEST, sallerest thing in the way
of white man that was ever In
vented
"And he is the proof that England
won't never colonize India. For the
English can't live in India, you see.
The moist heat of that there land, with
its nights of 110 degrees and it's moons
of $50 or worse. takes the strength and
backbone out of an Englishman, gives
him liver trouble and makes a COM
plete wreck of him.
If he goes back home, he may re-
cover his health. If he STAYS in India,
he don't never recover it, If he has
children born in India, those children
are called native born, and for poor,
little, puny, spiritless critters they're
the limit
IF them native born English have
children in their turn-well that third
generation of native born has none. at
least. 1t is generation of idiots, para
lytics, catalepties, cripples. If you was
to see an army of native born of the
third generation, you'd think you had
the rams sure.
Let England get out of India. She
does the Indians only harm, and what
she does for herself is to turn tall,
strong, bloomin' young colonists into
them skinny, yeler, whimperin' spec
ters what you call native born."-St.
