In n few months the people Of The
United States will have an eX-presidcnt
on their hands, metaphorically speak
ing. He will not suffer from ennui or
lack of popular interest in his move
ments and views, and there is abundant
reason to think that he will take eX-
cellent care of himself both in the way
of strenuous work and recreation. Yet
theoretically the problem of what to do
with eX-presidents win remain unsolYed
and it will worry a good many of our
citizens, as we'll as our cousins and
friends in England.
The view is urged with much solicit
tude that it is undignitied' and humili-
ating to see former heads of the nation
in private legal business. in Journal
ism or in any other gainful competitive
occupation. This, we are told, is true
even when they are eminently success
full; how much more narrowing the
spectacle of failure and futile scramb
ling would be.
Two suggestions have just been
made in connection with this problem
by British organs of light and power.
The London STimes favors a $4,000 an
nual pension 10 ex-presidents. with
a statutory provision making them
members of the federal senate for life.
This would require great deal Of

one place, but our contemporary does
not shrink, on our behalf, from that
difficulty.
With a greater sense of practically
The Spectator, wishing to avoid consti-
tutional amendments, proposes the
placing OF ex-presidents on half pay,
with the moral understanding that
their services should be at all times
at the disposal of the nation. Then"
it says gravely. they will always be
available for arbitrations, home or for
eign, special commissions, confidential
inquiries, or any other delicate and re-
sporsible nonparty work which the ex-
ecutive may desire to intruSt to a man
of special authority and experience"
We fear that the London weekly
takes special commissions far more
solemnly than Americans do The ma
tive quality of humOr must be rock
oned with. In America the prestige
of the presidency would not be en-
HANGED by making former chief execu-
tives paramount and general commits
sionerS, candidates for miscellaneous
jobs at the beck and call of the presi-
dent or of Congress. The spectacle Of
an ex-presidcnt sitting in splendid iso-
lation and signing for something to
turn up, something delicate" and wor-
thy, would not be impressive with us.

seem to leave the matter where it was

maestro is growing old, as is indicated
by his large head of hair now nearly

Jonas is that while his deafness is
apparently increasing as far as general
hearing is concerned, II remains acute
for musical sounds, so that he can de-.
tect the slightest mistake in Instrument
tai or vocal work, a point in which he
has the advantage over Beethoven, who
