Where He Would Have shone.

Cardinal AIezzofanti. who died in
1919, at the age of seventy-fve years,
knew and could speak more than fifty
languages. And he knew them thor
oughly. He could entertain his English
friends with specimens of Yorkshire
dialect and his French or German Wis
itors with the patois of their respec-
tive countries. "What a fine job he
could have had as a universal interpret
er should he have lived in the times
of the tower of Rabelr' was one OF
Lord Byron's caustic remarks.-Argo

The Arabs Pride of Blood.

OF the Arabs pride traveller writes:
''He is proud of his own blood and of
his mares blood for it's own sake. He
will show you a broken down little
crock and inform you, with perfect
truth, that she is of the best blood in
the Jazirah; he will also show a fine
stallion of his own and tell you he is a
'gdish, or underbred animal, and there
is no doubt it is the bad thoroughbred
he admires and prefers to the finest
made cross breed. AS regards his
shaykh and tribal leader, he discrimi-
mates in an equal degree between the
clever warrior. astute diplomatist and
good business man of low extraction
and the shaykh of high lineage, who
may be a miserable epileptical crea-
ture, and always to the disadvantage
of the low born man."
