QUEER ENGLISH MILK WAGONS
Gorgeous Floats with Brass Churns
and Ben hur Drivers.

In English towns, a Canadian visitor
ieclares in the Queen, the foreigner
runs out to the pavement just to see
that glorious chariot called a milk
float go by-that gay bit of two
wheeled thing, white and yellow, white
and blue, or red, white and blue, with
the shining brass churn erect at the
side, the reins coming over the shin
ing brass rail in front. the little square
seat inserted at the rear, and the char
ioteer standing at the back like Ben
hur and driving as much like that
hero as-in a modern town where even
motor cars are unknown-is practica-
BILE.
Then the English milkman who
comes on foot, with modern yoke on
his shoulders, and swinging at-each
side a brass-bound tin pail, in which
is queer little measuring dipper.
Who could wish to have milk delivered
IN glass bottles. with a paper-sealed
top, when he can have 1t measured at
his door into his own jug in this
quantity curious fashion? What do
microbes amount TO when compared
with the joy of the medieval.

pecMGs 1na PERPETUAL GRIN.
Writer Takes Issue with Man Who
Says keep a-Smiling.s

A fayorite motto with many people
In these latter days, when the whole
some gospel OF cheerfulness is being
preached so extensively, is, Keep a.
smiling. II is very good motto
within limitations. In so far as its
adoption as a rule Of conduct prevents
the wearing OF lugubrious counte-
nance when no overwhelming grief or
calamity Is being endured or is i'm
pending. in so far as it overcomes the
tendency to look on the dark side and
anticipate evil. in SO far as 1t enables
one to look for the best in all situa
tions and TO keep up his courage when
troubles threaten-in all these re.
spects 1t Is q maxim worthy of COM
mendation
But It should not be interpreted too
literally; its spirit rather than its let
ter should be observed Its spirit
means persistent hopefulness, a re-
fusal TO be cast down by discouraging
or unfavorable circumstances. a sturdy
defiance OF adverse fate. Its literal
observance may include these things,
but II means also perpetual grin. and
perpetual grin leads TO thoughts OF
crime on the part OF beholders. No
one becomes so irritating or has such
a maddening effect upon sensitive as
sociates as the man or woman who
wears the smile that never comes
