Advice Of Polonius.
Give thy thoughts no tongue,
Nor any unprcportioned thought his act,
Be thou familiar. but by no means vulgar.
The friends thou hast, and their adoption
tried.
Grapple them to thy soul with hoops Of
steel;
But do not dull thy palm with entertain.
OF each new hatch'd. unfiedg'd comrsde.
Beware
Of entrance to a quarrel: but, being In,
Bear II. that the opposed may beware OF
thee,
Give every man thine ear. but few thy
voice;
Take each mans censure, but reserve thy
judgment.
Costly thy habit a. thy purse can buy.
But not expressed In fancy; rich. not
gaudy:
For the apparel oft proclaims the man;
And they in France, Of the best rank and
station.
Are most select and generous, chief In
that.
Neither borrower nor a lender be.
For loan Oft loses both itself and friend (;
And borrowing dulls the edge Of hus.
bandry.
This above ALTO thine own self be trce
And It must follow. as the night the day.
Thou can'st not then be false to any man.
Farewell: my blessing season this In thee

kept as fast-day once was In New Eng
land; but old-established customs are
changed with difficulty. and 1t is much
easier to abolish the most dangerous fca-
lures of the celebration without depriv-
ing the youngsters of chance to make
noise in n safe way, But the grOwn-up
members of the community should be
taught sense. and the reckless firing Of
guns and pistols by hoodlums and less
vicious persons should be sternly sup
pressed.
The noise Is trying to invalids and nerv-
Gus folk, but that Is probably unavoid-
able, and the day OF torture must be en-
dured The only remedy for that IL the
exercise of philosophy but much can be
done to save the boys from injury. The
responsibility for that rests largely with
the parents.
The ordinary frecracker and the paper
torpedo are comparatively harmless. Lit
tie injury beyond superficial burns will
ordinarily result from even reckless
use of these noise-producers. The truly
dangerous things are the toy pistol. the
cannon cracker, and the clay torpedo.
These are all dpath-1ealing Instruments,
which children should never be permitted
to handle. " Is from them that most OF
the Fourth of July accidents result.
Apart from the big iniures-the loss
OF fingers or hand. or binding fr0r. pre-

these hurts lies in the danger Of lock jaw,

MAYORS SHOW IN LONDON.
Circus Display Of Recent Years Re-
placed by Dignified Spectacle
Planned by an American.

LONDON, November 9.-The lord
mayors show today, celebrating the in

sion, unworthy the dignity of an official
celebration.
The principal feature today was the
historical pageant organized by Louis n.
Parker, an American dramatist. Poets
and musicians from Chaucer to Milton,
and many of the most notable figures of
those times appeared in the parade cos
TUNED with, historical accuracy. Shakes
peare was naturally most conspicuous
and was accompanied by a picturesque
encourage of characters from his plays.
Chaucer, who headed the pageant. was
followed by band of personages OF his
creation, and Spenser and MarloWe were
attended in like manner. striking fea-
ture was William Caxton on float with
a group Of printers working an ancient
printing press.
These historical pageants will be con-
tinued progressively in future shows.
Several companies of militia. in gorgeous
uniforms, and a number Of bands of
music completed the fine spectacle. The

and Erection to Begin
at Once.

The bronze statute of Alexander Shep-
herd, former governor of the District, is
to be erected at the northwest corner of
the parking in front of the District build
ing.

sderation by the Commissioners for some
time, was decided upon by the board to-
day. The Shepherd Memorial Associa-
ton, which has raised the funds for the
statue, will be notified at once and re-
quested to confer with the Commissioners
regarding the installation of the statue.
1t was first proposed that the statue
be placed in the parking directly in front
of the main entrance to the building. 1t
was decided by the Commissioners that
the site near 14th street and Pennsyl-
vania avenue would be more satisfactory.
The placing OF the statue is expected
to be commenced Immediately. 1t is the
work of U. s. ]. Dunbar, and is now at

ness is considered excellent The pedes-
