Reward.

The less you require looking after,
the more able you are to stand alone
and complete your tasks, the greater
your reward. Then If you cannot only
do your work, but direct intelligently
and effectively the efforts of others,
your reward is in exact ratio, and the
more people you direct, and the higher
the intelligence you can rightly lend,
the more valuable Is your life. Hilbert

The estimated cost of the present tower is owe
100000 francs this sum having been raised by pub

When the tower fell of the five bells only the
largest not broken the other four have been
replaced and presented to his beloved Ven

originally occupied the centers of the north and

The tower has a strangely hard and ap-
pearance against the soft, timemellowed facade
of the church of ST. Mark with its wild horses
and curious Oriental-looking domes and seems al
most as incongruous the large steamboats, and
motor launches which have challenged the
supremacy of the graceful gondoa Venetian

A lawyer once asked a man who
juries:
who Influenced you most-the law
yer, the witnesses or the judge?" He
expected to get some useful and in
teresting information from so expert
enced juryman. This was the mans
reply:
'I'll tell yer. sir. 'ow makes up my
mind. I am plain man, and rea-
sonin' man, and amt influenced by
anything the lawyers say; no. nor by

and big fat baby. stopped at news
counter to-day for something to read
while getting her baby to sleep. She
picfssd up a woman's magazine and
opened 1t at an article headed: 'Tt

is. and she was SO influenced by its
logic that she dumped the baby on
the bench. dropped the suitcase be-
side 1t, and walked off with head high,
shoulders erect and abdomen drawn
in. Some minutes later a meek-look-
Tag man hurried in. picked up the
baby and suitcase and walked out
again. Undoubtedly, somewhere out
