THE HUMAN LOT.

It is by way of being the fashion
nowadays to think that only noise is
valuable. That a name banded about
in print and sounded In many mouths
is noble. We are inclined to honor
money first and foremost, am after
that the power of becom.H we'll
known. But if one dares Whisper u
secret aloud, they are either vulgar
qualities that make for these attain-.
ments and rather vulgar rewards that
are earned. If only one could hon
estly believe it, 1t would be so helpful!
It is higher stage of development,
of course that admires and yearns for
real intellectual power, but oven that
is less to be desired than faithful SER
vice in whatever tasks we are called to.
A young girl OF intellectual aspirations.
says Harper's Weekly, once complained
to the sage Of Concord OF some ones
lack of mental acumen, and with his
fnr-away gaze. his insistent sense of
the truly valuable. he replied: Per
haps God is not thunderstruck by any
of our abilities And, indeed when
all is said and done, we are all of US

the lonely and puzzled lady who ques-
tions from the Little House-in-the-
Woods we are all in the same box
and the four sides of it are death ana
sorrow and search and finality and we
are all of us jostling up against each
other and getting In each others ways
and hitting each other. or going off to
the far corner and feeling lonesome ana
wishing some one would only take us

tther, the biographers say, presented
him with 81 and told hin, that in the
future he must rely on his own exer-
lions. Webster pursued his ideal of a
legal education, although compelled to
read law as an accompaniment to his
school teaching in Goshen, N. Y. With
the country impoverished by the long
war. Webster found the schools With.
out textbooks. He composed q spell
ing-book. a grammar, and reading
book, the first of the kind published in
the country. No volume has had 50
wide a vogue as the spelling book. For
years more than a million copies were
sold annually, toward the close Of, his
life. From the receipts of the book
he was enabled Immediately TO pursue
his labors on his dictionary.
Webster practiced law, wrote articles
urging the establishment OF new sys-
tenn of laws, published newspapers. and
devoted himself to the public service by
means of his literary productions. But
his great work is his Dictionary of the
English language. This was begun in
1907 His labor lasted twenty years
before his photography was ready FOR
the market. Several were passed col
lecting words that had never been In
troduced into any English vocabnlaries.
In the very first edition of the Amer
fican Dictionary Of the English Ian
guage,n are found II. 900 words and be-
tween 10000 and 10000 definitions not
in any preceding work. In 1924 Web
ster went to Europe, to submit his great
work to European scholars,
He spent some time at Cambridge
University, the Bibliotheque Paris,
London. oxford and other cities. where
he studied and consulted with the most
profound English scholars in the world.
In 1928 tho dictionary was published.
An edition of only $500 copies was
printed in this country, followed by ono
OF 5000 in England. Webster was at
this time seventy years of age and he
announced that he regarded his literary
lnbors practically at a close,
Webster was a product of a. genera
ton distinguished for plain living and
deep thinking. There were giants in
those days" The age of flippancy, of
scnsualty, is the age of pysmics.

unpleasant tasks and duties Mark
Twain says he was never wholly happy
excepting on two occasions. One WAS
when he was given that Oxford degree
and wore a marvellous red cloak and
mortar-bo hat; and the other was
when he had the measles and expected,
to die. the joy of holding the center
Of the stage aud having the whole fam

worth all the pangs Mark is a hti-
norist, and a humorist is a man who
has the sense of values. and to have
the sense Of values is wisdom. Mark
is a great philosopher as well as a
humorist. Not only has he testified
that pangs and pains are the attributes
of life, not death, and that there Is no
pain In death, but he also gives testi-
inony that sickness is an acute form
of seltiShness. The sick man i!sa,-

TuE surnEAIE COUNT RUDlNG.

q J. .t I'LL . l.. Y. j. ID /. .
From an entirely impartial point OF
view it appears TO us that the ou.
meme court rulings in the so-caiied
Taft-LiheraI ticket case is based on
sound, irrcfutabie logic.
IT is conceivable. for instance, that a
group Of red anarchists might insist on
placing tho name of a Republican, or
Democratic. or Socialist, candidate. on
Il ticket made UP by them, not for inc
purpose of helping clecting HIM pns
In order TO discredit him with ropnth-
bic voters and bringing about his DC
feat an such a case, would he not DC
at liberty to decline the anarchist'c
nomination without FORGETTING his right
to remain OH the ticket Of the Nhttonal
3arty 10 which he belongs? The supp'-
sition is absurd. # that were the law
any aggregation Of obstructionists
might prevent the election of any can :
didate Objectionable to them, merely
by placing his name on ticket on
which he could not, for conscientious or
ppltical reasons, permit It to remain
l'hat would mean a radical revolution
in}{t The management OF the political
machinery.
1T Is perfectly evident that the re-
fus;il5of The Republican electors to per-
mil their names TO appear on the 9th
er Ticket docs not. as asserted by the
party organ prevent anyone VINO de-
sitcs TO vote for Taft and Sherman 10
10 80. lt5is just as easy TO vote their
nsSllles on The Republican ticket as on
any other ticket
& TO be sure, the party organ assumes
that il great number Of Its voters arc
snnt intelligent enough TO vote anything
but Il straight ticket 1t assumes that
they hrs .'ncrvous" aud do not know
how ~ pull the right lever, What
lkinlsof voters does the organ depend
upon for victory, anyhow?
one thing is certain, the proposition
10 place the Republican electors on
another ticket was not made for the
purpose of strengthening the Taft vote.
III was done to draw votes from the
Republicans for the so-called "Amerl-
can County ticket. and for no other
purpose whatever. The organ has de-
sclared that there Is no issue in this
election but to capture the County for
,.Amcrlcan'' demagogues. They care
neither for Taft nor for Bryan. But
they want Republicans and Demo-
Gratis to help them toagct hold OF the
county Offices, and their multiplication
of tickets is trap in which to catch
Votes for American candidates. 1t
should not be necessary to make this
statement. The truth of 1t Is self
evident.

A Famous Poison Mystery.

England had a famous poison mys-
terry in the last century. Two mem
sbers of a great club in Manchester,
both men Of position and keen politi-
clans, each received, apparently as a
New Years gift, small boxes contain
ing a few cigars Of the very highest
quality apparently. Both were taken
fearfully i'll after smoking. and one Of
them subsequently, died. The cigars
Were found to be loaded with poison,
and it was said that the man who
recovered only did SO because he used
a cigar holder. The facts were at first
hushed up, because, as was said, the
suspected sender, whose motive was
revenge on account of lady, was a
man Of wealth and power. But this
subject was cleared, and the mystery
was deepened by the following cir
cumstances: A rich Manchester mer-
chant, travelling one day in a railway
car about the time Of the incident re-
lated, got into conversation with a
most agreeably and highly cultivated
stranger, who finally offered his cigar
case. The Manchester man was found
at Leeds almost unconscious and the
only occupant Of the carriage. He
grasped in one Of his convulsed hands
the cigar he had been smoking. and aft
er analysis showed it to be identical
with the others. He recovered, but
the stranger was never discovered.

Legislation which would prohibit
shooting from the solid at mines,
when slack coal is not a marketable
product, and which would provide PEN
alties for excessive use of powder,
would have, as one result, a larger
percentage of lump coal, and thus, in
part at least, enable operators to as
sumo the additional expense involved
in the briquetting of such slack coal
as is unavoidably Produced
Mr.. Parker's paper, copies of which
may be obtained by applying to the
director of the survey at Washington,
contains Information in regard to COM
panies organized during 1907 for the
purpose of establishing coal briquet-
ting plants and gives a list of recent
publications in which the subject of
briquetted fuel is discussed.

Easy Way to Be Generous.

In church Of New England vii
lage was an old man who had all the
Christian graces save one, and that
was the grace Of liberality. He would
do anything in the world for the cause
Of religion but give up his money. At
the close Of the financial year 1869
the church found itself $400 in debt
A church meeting was called, and it
was voted to circulate "a subscription
paper on the spot and endeavor to thus
raise the sum needed. This was done,
and the old gentleman did not put his
name on the paper. The result was
rather disheartening, 5000 only having
been pledged. Silence reigned for a
moment, when one Of the most gen.
erous men in the church moved that
1--WE double our subscriptions" In
stantly the old gentleman was on his
feet and with extraordinary fervor
cried, 81 second the notion
He evidently felt that he was thus
doing his part in fastening a most de-
sirable result.
