"READINe MAKETH FULL MANI
Wisdom and Advice Delivered by
Francis Bacon.

Crafty men contemn studies, simple
men admire them, and wise men use
them; for they teach not their own
use: but that is wisdom without
them, and above them; won by observ-
alton. Read not to contradict and con.
flute, nor to believe and take for grant
ed, nor to find talk and discourse, but
to weigh and consider Some books
are to be tasted, others to be swallow.
ed, and some few to be chewed and
digested; that is, some books are to
be read only in parts; others to be
read, but not curiously; and some few
to be read wholly, and with diligence
and attention. Some books also may
be read by deputy, and extracts made
of them by others; but that would be
only in the less important arguments
and the meaner sort of books; else
distilled books are, like common dis.
titled waters, flashy things. Reading
maketh full man, conference ready
man, and writing an exact man; and,
therefore, If man write little, he had
need of great memory; if he confer
little, he had need of present wit;
and If he read little, he had need
have much cunning, to seem to know
that he doth not!-Francis Bacon.

JUDGE Got His Answer.

Judge Graham, Of the San Francisco
supreme court, gets as much fun as
possible out of life, even extracting an
occasional laugh from trials over
which he presides. Not long ago he
INDUCED in his fayorite propensity
and came off second best. An appli-
cant for naturalization was before
him, the French chef Of a big hotel.
Satisfied with the answers to the for
NAL questions, Judge Graham sudden
ly and unsmilingly put final poser:
"You say you are chef? What is the
difference between a teal duck and a
pheasant" Just as quickly and fully
as seriously came the answer: Forty
cents, your honor"

Never Overlooked a Chance.

When Bishop Talbot, now Of the
central Pennsylvania diocese, was
"the cowboy bishop" Of Idaho and
Wyoming he never overlooked an Op-
portunity of securing contributions
for the missionary work in which he
took such delight. On one occasion,
while attending meeting of church
dignitaries in st. Paul, he was chatting
with some other clergymen on the
steps of his hotel when several ho-
boes came along. One of tAem ap-
preached and asked for aid. Bishop
Talbot took him aside and after a
short but earnest conversation the
other tramps saw something pass
from hand to hand What did he
give you?" asked the other hoboes
when they all started away. Didn't
give me nothing" was the disgusted
reply. 81 gave him a dollar for his
blamed new cathedral in Laramie"

MADE HIS MEANING PLAIN.
Indians Answer a Real Triumph Of
Quiet Sarcasm.

George Vaux, Jr., of Philadelphia,
has been appointed a member of the
board of Indian commissioners. Mr..
Vaux told a reporter the other day an
Indian story.
There was certain commission
er," he said, who treated the Indians
with rude scorn. One day a chief en-
tertained this man in his tepee, tell
ing him over the tobacco many quaint
legends.
One legend concerned a plague of
grasshoppers. The chief told elo-
quently how grasshoppers overran
the land, eating the grain, and how
the medicine men averted a famine
by offering a silver grasshopper to
the Great Spirit, whereupon all that
deluge of grasshoppers disappeared
But the commissioner scoffed at
the tale.

said, as to believe such rubbish

Great Spirit silver pale face -

Burro Drivers Carry Candles.

In Mexico all vehicles, be they
handcart, automobile, or anything be-
tween, must carry light at night.
This rule or law is rigidly enforced.
Even the drivers of the poor little
burro or mule carts, on their two
wheels, must carry light.
So, rather than buy lanterns, which
cost money, they take dip candle,
and wrapping it in bit of newspa-
per to shield it from the wind, carry
il in their left hand as they drive
along homeward from work after
evening has fallen. The effect is
striking, as the light, falling strongly
on the Indian driver, throws the face
of the man into strong relief against
the darkness.
