PAID TRIBUTE TO LAUGHTER
Men Of Intellect and Renown Join In
Testimony to the Value Of
Jollity in Life.

The value of good-natured laugh
may be rated low by some people;
but many writer's have attested its
worth in no measured terms.
1t is not surprising that Charles
Lamb should have said, "A laugh is
worth a hundred groans in any mar
ket;" but from the lips Of the somber
Carlyle one is scarcely prepared to
hear, mo man who has once heartily
and wholly laughed can be altogether
or irreclaimably bad"
It was Douglas Jerrold who boldly
stated that, What was talked of as
the golden chain of Jove was nothing
more than a succession Of laughs. a
chromatic scale of merriment reach
ing from earth to Olympus"
Il am persuaded" wrote Laurence
Sterne, that every time man smiles
but much more SO when he laughs-it
adds something to his fragment OF
life"
Last of all may be cited the verdict
of Oliver Wendell Holmes, given with
his own inimitable humor, THE riot
out tumult of a laugh, take it. is the
mob law of the features, and Pro
priety the magistrate who reads the
riot act."-The Sunday Magazine.

Mexico City, Mexico.-The last of

Fer another cent the sugar can be

Kansas City, Mo.-Through the

This picture Of Montezuma, the last
king of the Aztecs, Is believed by most
authorities to be not an actual like
ness made by Spanish artist, but a
fanciful sketch.
OF a pomp and luxury that impressed
even the travelled Spaniards. His
capital, Mexico, was built on a small
island in the middle of saltwater
lake. Great stone causeways equip
ped with drawbridges connected the
city with the mainland; as the cap
ital grew larger new buildings had
been erected on pilings, so that the
city was veritable Venice. Flowers
banked the fiat roofs and hung in gar
lands on the temple walls; even the
human victims whom the Aztecs sac
rificed to their strange gods of stone
were decked in flowers.
The rulers of the land lived in great
-splendor in this land of flowers. The
ruler was chosen by quartette Of
mobiles, and was generally nephew of
the preceding king. He must have
distinguished himself in war or in
the service of the gods before be-
ing eligible to this high honor. When
Montezuma was chosen king in 1902,
he had done both these things; as a
young man he had been active in the
constant petty wars which the Mex
leans carried on with the tribes around
them, and later he had devoted him
self to the service of the gods. When
the mobiles came to tell him he had
been chosen king they found him
sweeping the steps of the great CEN
trail temple of the capital.
Once chosen king. however, he set
tied back into life of idleness and
luxury. He was surrounded with
every comfort. Spanish chroniclers
tell how he changed his robe four
times day and never wore the same
robe twice. The dishes from which
he ate never appeared again on the
royal table; they were given to his
favorite mobiles.
Montezuma was generous in his
treatment of Mexico and the territory
Immediately surrounding it. In outly-
ing provinces, however, his tax col
ectors made life hard for the people.
