A Privileged Class.

It is laid down that you phys =
must save others, but 1t is now:
laid down that you must save yJ.i
self. You belong to the privile:;.
class. You and kings are the ca
people whose explanation the police
man will accept if you exceed i'll,
speed limit. If you fly the yellow fla.
over the center of population you can
turn it into q desert; IL you fly the
red cross you can turn desert into a
center Of population, toward which, as
l have seen, men will crawl on hands
and knees. You remain now, perhaps
the only class that dares tell the world
we can get no more out Of a machine
than we put into 1t, and that If the fa-
theirs teeth have eaten of the forbid.
den fruit the children's teeth are
liable to re decayed.-By Rudyard

LESSON LEARNED FROM ORIENT.
Western Nations Appreciate the Value
OF Their Forests.


Scientific men speculate to the eff.
feet that the boundless desert of Sa-
nara was once 9 garden supporting a
mighty population and doubtless the
seat of what was then human civiliza-
ton. There is authentic history for
1t that the region called Mesopotamia
was the granary of the east and the
center of human endeavor when Cyrus
the Great was king, but 1t is now a
desert waste, and owls and bats In
habit the ruins of Babylon because of
the denudation Of the forests of that
once splendid country. Spain paid a
bigger price for the havoc she wrought
among the trees of the valley Of the
Guadalquivir than the Berber invasion
Ind the Moorish dominion cost her.
The nations of western =, Europe
England. France and sGsrmany-ap-
pear to have learned the lesson and
prohted by 1t. In those countries tim
Der culture is as much regular crop
as potatoes In. Michigan corn In Iowa,
tobacco in Kentucky, or cotton in Mis-
sissfppi, and in at least one of those
countries 1t is the law Of the land
that for every tree felled another must
be planted, and no tree is felled I'M
TIL 1t has attained to its zenith as a
plant.

His Capacity.


The late Ira D. Sankey," said a
veteran Pittsburg editor. "once dined
with me in Philadelphia. During din.
ner he looked about the restaurant,
where every table was covered with
glasses of white or red wine, and he
said:
There is man drinking a whole
bottle, a full quart, of champagne. 1t
Is amazing what capacity for liquor
some men POSSESS. And the man with
a large capacity is actually proud OF
1t. Could anything be more foolish,
more sinful?" p
Then, with a chuckle, Mr.. Sankey
told me about beggar he had once
helped.
The beggar had a red nose, and Mr..
Sankey gave him 20 cents, saying at
the same time: -....''
Mind you, now, don't get drunk
on this
Drunk on 20 cents? Why, boss
he. said, proudly, 1T 'u'd take the best
part Of dollar to get me drunk"

An Easy Load,

Mr.. Smith was giving a reception,
and the conversation turned upon the
subject of losing money. Mrs. Brown
had lost some bills which she had car
ried carelessly in her outside cloak
pocket.

In that careless way" remarked Mr..
Smith to his wife.
What money!" asked that lady.

"Ah!f; returned Mr.. Smith, with IN

PASSED THE OPPORTUNITY ON,
Patriotic Prominence Handed from
One to Another.

Greatness is thrust upon some in
iividuals, patriotism on others. When
the patriotism does not belong to ones
own country the situation may prove
embarrassing. Such 1t was in the
case OF Agostino Polidori, the great
grandfather Of Dante Gabriel Ros-
setti. The incident is given in a life
OF the poet by his brother. Polidori,
an Italian, was in Paris at the taking
OF the Bastile in 1889. He tells the
story Of his unexpected prominence
and his extrication from the uncom-
Portable position.
