A Rawhee From CARLYLE.

I used to see Carlyle when lived
as a child in Chelsea. I regarded him
with extraordinary aversion and fear.
One day 1 was sent to post a letter.
l suppose 1 was older, though uncon-
scious, as always, of anything ahead.
I cannoned into Carlyle. The impact
laid me fat on the pavement, where I
yelled for some minutes, though sooth-
ed eventually by England's great think
er. And then-this is the point Of the
story-Carlyle dived into his pockets,
produced a halfpenny and said kind

mourning. He was the first and per-

Benvenuto Cellini when about to
cast his famous statue of Perseus, now
in the Loggia del Lanzi at Florence
was taken with a sudden fever. In
the midst Of his suffering one of his
workmen rushed into his sick chamber
and exclaimed: "Oh, Benyenuto! Your
statue is spoiled, and there is no hope
whatever of saving it," Cellini said
that when he heard this he gave a
howl and leaped from his bed. Dress
ing hastily, he rushed to his furnace
and found his metal leaked" He or
dered dry oak wood and fired the fur
mace fiercely, working in a rain that
was falling, stirred the channels and

The LEIPZIG Book Fair.

Leipzig is the largest publication cen
ter in the world. More books and Pc
riodicals are printed there than any
where else, and more people are en-
gagged in making and using printers
supplies than in London, New York,
Berlin or Paris. Many of the orders
for these publications come from Eng
land, France, Austria and other coun-
tries because the mechanical work can
be done in Leipzig much cheaper than
elsewhere. More than half of the
transactions in books take place at the
Leipzig book fair, which occurs every
year at the jubilate, the first week In
Easter, when booksellers and publish
ers from all parts of Germany assem-

Self Reliance.

The spirit of self help is the root Of
all genuine growth in the individual,
and, exhibited in the lives of many, 1t
constitutes the true source of national
vigor and strength. Help from with
out is often enfeebling In its effects,
but help from within invariably invig-
crates. Whatever is done for men or
classes to a certain extent takes away
the stimulus and necessity OF doing for
themselves, and where men are sub
jected to overguidance and overgovern
ment the inevitable tendency is to rem
der them comparatively helpless.-Sam'
uel Smiles.

When he came out of the Mansion

MR. TAFT GETTING ACQUAINTED.

/. will not escape attention that Mr.
TAFT is dcyoting much more time to
getting acquainted with the Congress
men and the department activities
Last year much more time was spent
in study Of the telegraph poles and
railroad times on his long routes OF
travel.
There is a certain argument in favor
Of presidential travels, in the failure
OF Washington properly to reflect the
feeling OF the country. The sentiment
ii the Office holding class proverbially
misrepresents the sentiment of the
great mass OF the working people Of
the country, who are making their liv-
ing through productive occupation.
At the same time the most economl-
cal manner for the President to use
in becoming familiar with the senti-
ment of all sections of the country, is
to read the newspapers. He should
not con6nc himself to few journals
OF the larger cities, which in their de-
votion to purely metropolitan interests
are the most provincial in the whole
newspaper field. Let him glance over
regularly, or have his secretaries scan,
a Jew leading journals in each state,
and he will know the inner heart of the
American people.
