might be interfered with If the loads
from different species were mixed"
Some of the Chicago papers seem to
think that a few of the features of
reform in that city come pretty high.
For instance, the News reports that the
cost of c~ondemnfng and selling a SUI
~perannuated fire horse is $3.50, while
such animals never bring more than
500, and frequently much less. BY
way of contrast, the News says: "Un-
der the old system, which was in vogue
before the city officials became stick
lers in observance of all legal formali-
ties, the preliminaries to the sale of
a horse did not total more than ST."
How ~'canvassing' got its election
significance is one of the unsolved
puzzles of etymology. The word ap-
pears originally to have meant tossing
in a canvas or blanket, and thence gen
orally m~ishandling or assaulting. "Ill
canvass thee in thy broad cardinals
hat issthe Duke of Gloucester's threat
to the bishop of Winchester in king
Henry VI" The next stage of mean
ing was that of destructive criticism,
from which to thorough discussion
"c~anvassing" a subject-was simple
enough. But how exactly did it arrive
at the election sense? DR.. johnson ex-
| planned that the term meant trying
votes previously to the decision" and
| derived it from canvas as it signifies
a sieve" The Oxford dictionary, how
ever, is unable to find this use CT the
| word.

editor, which apparently was published
by him as his own 1 take the liberty
now to finish same where he left off:
A little more tired at close of day.
little less anxious to have our way,
little less ready to scale and blame
little more care for a brothers name;
And so we are nearing the Journey
end
Where time and eternity meet and
blend.
A little less care for bonds and gold.
little more zest in the days of old,
broader view and saner mind
And little more love for all mankind
And so We are faring a-down the way
That leads to the gates Of a better day.
A little more love for the friends of
youth,
A little less zeal for established truth.
little more charity in our views,
A little less thirst for the daily news:
And SO we are folding our tents away.
And passing in silence at close of day.
A little more leisure to sit and dream.
A little more real the things unseen,
little nearer to those ahead,
With visions of those long loved and
dead;
And SO we are going to where all must
go,
To the place where the living may
never know.
A little more laughter, few more
tears,
And We shall have told our increasing
years
The book is closed and the prayers are
said,
And we are a part of the countless dead ;
Thrice happy then If some soul can say,
Il live because he has passed my way"
